• SQL Server DBCC CHECKIDENT (jobs, RESEED, 30) does not work

  Hi, I'm trying to set up merge replication and when I try to synchrinize with the subscriber I get the error "invalid column name ROWGUIDCOL". Following an article it recomended to reseed the identity columns on the subscriber so that there is no conflict. Now the tables with the identity column have the "Not for replication "option on. Using DBCC CHECKIDENT (table_name, RESEED, some_value) does not change the SEED when I check. SQL server help file remarks on DBCC CHECKIDENT say that if the column was created with the "Not for replication " option on it cannot change the value. From sql server help file: Remarks If necessary, DBCC CHECKIDENT corrects the current identity value for a column. The cu ...Show All

• Visual C++ Can not run a C++ program over a network

  Hi, I coded a VC++ program using VS 2005. It's a MFC MDI structure and it run fine both from VS Start and Release directory in Windows Explorer in the computer it was created. However, when put its release build into a directory in a network and start it from the computer where it was created, it doesn't work. There are no explicit libraries to be linked to the program. A "TODO" error message is related to MFC, simply saying "TODO: <File description> has encountered a problem and needs to close." Does anybody happen to know any clue for solving the problem Thanks in advance. Jason this looks like an access denied problem. your remotely hosted release build may not have ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Where is System.serviceModel

  I install .Net Framework 3.0 RC1 but I cannot find System.serviceModel for Windows Communication Foundation. Do I need to install some other components As I understand it, you need the SDK to get the assemblies for compiling.  You need orcas tools to get the Visual Studio enhancements.  So I don't think you can install just Orcas and have a fully functioning development system.  ...Show All

• Visual C# does managed code take precedence over native code?

  i wrote a small demo C app that sends a message and a struct to a managed C++ dll. this C++ dll marshalls over the message and struct to a managed struct and sends it to a C# assembly that just prints out the values of the struct (to see that everything came over ok) and sends back a string reply, it also prints some debug text to console. before the call to the C++ dll, i make a few calls to printf to print to console. when it runs, it does the C# assembly debug statements before the native C printf statements. other than that everything looks ok. does managed code take any sort of precedence over native code printf is buffered by default. The output won't show up until there's a certain number of charact ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Slow startup times

  Hello, I have just installed WWF on my development system. I have noticed that the start/load time for an extremely simply workflow (ie-hello world) is slow. This isn't just the runtime of the application either.. Here is some pseudocode, main print 'in main' workflow.setup print 'wf setup' workflow.start workflow.waitforexit print 'done workflow' The application sits there for about 10 seconds before even entering main. For all intensive purposes please assume that my development machine has never been connected to the internet. Anybody have ideas why this could be happening This seems to be environment/system related. How does the performance compare with against a normal C# console application I can' ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Game Components - help!

  Hello, I'm just starting out with XNA (and it's the first language I've tried that doesn't include the word basic...) but have found myself a bit stuck whilst trying to use GameComponents. I followed the rather excellent tutorial for creating a tile engine at XnaResources and now have a fully functioning game component that draws & controls my tile map to screen - my idea being to create a simple 2D RPG, but first I want to build a map creator/editor that uses the tile engine to display & scroll the map. So far so good - I've written a (very) basic interface that allows me to enter the name of the text file that stores the map data and then displays it on the screen. But where I've hit a wall is that anything I do in my main game i ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Creating a local IIS Website on a sharepoint server

  The Problem: When we try to create a local IIS website project in Visual Studio 2005 on a server that has sharepoint installed it says "visual web developer does not support creation of a web site on a sharepoint web server". The Question: Is there any way around that Background Information: Sharepoint is installed on this server as a prequisite for team foundation server, which is also installed. This is also our nightly build server, which is the reason we have visual studio installed on there. We realize that with MSBUild we don't need vs2005 on the server, as was necessary with vs2003 and BuildIt, however we found it convenient for occasional diognosis of build issues, and would like to have the option if possible.
