• Software Development for Windows Vista Vista Slide Show -- No such interface supported

  When I click to view the photo in the Slide Show gadget that ships with Vista, I see a dialog box that has the path to the .jpg and below that "No such interface supported." I get the same message when I open Windows Photo Gallery, right-click on a .jpg, and select Open With... Photo Gallery Viewer. (After clicking "OK" here I see a second dialog with "System.IO.FileNotFoundException: Could not load file or assembly 'shimgvw' or one of its dependencies.") I can, however, double-click a .jpg in Windows Explorer, and it opens the file and displays the photo in Windows Photo Gallery, apparently using the Photo Gallery Viewer. When I first installed Vista, I was about to view photos using the Slide Show g ...Show All

• .NET Development Webservices and dlls

  I have developed a web service and deployed it successfully, on local and remote web servers. A few days ago I added functions that loads a dll (which act as an entry point for a software I'm running). The dll in question connects by sockets to another server and sends some data, and then unload itself. The web service works fine if I use the web server that comes with Visual Studio 2005 but I get an exception thrown on any other web server. "'System.CannotUnloadAppDomainException' occurred in System.Web.dll Additional information: Error while unloading appdomain. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80131015)" I'm figure there is some permissions that needs to be given to the web service / asp.net user, but I can't seem to find where I set permissi ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Blitting?

  I've checked through the XNA Documentation, but there doesn't seem to be any way to 'blit'. For those of you unfirmiliar with 'blit': Blit is a way to draw something. For example, say you create a "Texture2D" variable, set the size etc... But the texture is blank. The normal way to create a texture to this is to load up a bitmap image with it through the ContentManager, right But what if you want to use a whole sprite-sheet with many images Back to the blank, say, 65 x 65 bitmap image, you obviusly don't want this 2D image of the player to be a whole 1024x768 sprite-sheet. So this is where I used blitting in other programs, it basically asks for the x, y co-ordinates, and the length of the bitmap and takes a picture from that x,y and 'c ...Show All

• Visual Studio How to enable sharing, branching and merging in VSS

  We have VSS 6.0 in our systems I want to know how exactly to enable the branching,mergign and sharing of files in VSS. I have never done this.Currently Under the source safe menu Only Share is enabled while Branch and Merge Branches Menu items are disabled. In VSS, sharing & branching works kind of "backwards" from other programs you may have used. You start in the desired target location, click Share, then select the source item you want to share to that location. In the UI, branching is treated as sort of a special case of sharing -- you can optionally branch an item during the Share operation, or use the Branch command on an item that's already shared. ...Show All

• Windows Forms String.Format() problem

  Hi Is it possible to fill a remaning area of a string with a specific character For instance: String .Format ("{0,-15}" , "My Text" ) The output is: "My Text " I want the remaning of that string ( " " ), to be "---------" . Is this possible using String .Format() And instead of doing: for ( int i=0; i<10; i++) str += "-" ; Maybe this can be replaced with String .Format() somehow Kind Regards Then i think there is only one option use like it.

• Visual Studio Tools for Office Possible to store the assembly on a server

  Hello there, I'm wondering if it is possible to store the assembly on a webserver and have the word document "contact" the .dll on the server instead of having to store it on the local computer or on a networkshare Sure, you can store the dll on a website and then have the Word Document's manifest point to the URL (i.e. http://myserver/Word/Customization.dll ). The easiest way to do this is to publish straight to the Web Server, so the manifest gets linked automatically to the URL. Then the users can download the Word file and use it. Be careful with the policy part, you have to give permissions on every client machine for that particular dll, using a URL full trust permission. Please refer to this post for more de ...Show All

• .NET Development How to obtain bandwidth and downloading rate

  Hi all: I want to develop a software like a peer_to_peer application in C#.But I don't quite know how to realize some functions such as getting a peer bandwidth,throttling and showing downloading rate. I google it ,and find a article " How to do bandwidth Throttling using C# .Net code ". But the website require you to pay for registration. :=>( can anyone tell me how to realize those functions or offer me some samples or some webs Thanks a lot. Well, as soon as you start P/Invoking native DLL's you've just restricted your application to windows-only, as opposed to windows/mac/linux/sega megadrive by running your app under Mono on those other platforms (mono works on windows ...Show All

• Visual C++ /MTd and /clr options are incompatible. Why?

  Ok, here is the long story. I have a nice C++ component which statically links to about 10 libraries as well as links to ATL, C run-time library and MFC. Component is multi-threaded and it actually runs couple of threads inside but everything is nicely wrapped into one DLL which can be called from any .NET program. It was all fine until I tried to migrate this project from VS 2002 to VS 2005. After migration at first I got this message: Building MFC application with /MD (CRT dll version) requires MFC shared dll version. Please #define _AFXDLL or do not use /MD I checked settings and saw that migration changed runtime library option to Multi-threaded DLL instead of just Multi threaded. Well, I have no intention of having 10+ DLLs instead o ...Show All
