• Visual C# C# 2005 ignoring STAThread attribute

  Greetings. I'm developing a WinForms-driven application, and I need it to use Single Threaded model for COM interop. C# 2003 worked fine with [STAThread] attribute above main() declaration. But we just upgraded our machines to VS 2005, and our application is failing due COM errors. We found C# 2005 is creating the main thread as Multithreading model, regardless the STA attribute. Any idea why is this happening . Here is a snippet of our entry point code, not complex at all. Putting a breakpoint in the first line of main(), already shows the System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.ApartmentState as System.Threading.ApartmentState.MTA. #region Main /// <summary> /// The main entry point for the applica ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Open a xaml window from a C# form

  This is probably a newbie question, but why cant i start a new c# windowform project and add a new xaml window to the project, and then add a button in the c# form to show the xaml window i got all the referances added, but it gives this error: "Error 1 The name 'InitializeComponent' does not exist in the current context" so i comment it out. then it shows a empty window, but none of the xaml elements are loaded.

• Visual C++ Has casting to int from double changed completely in VS2005?

  Has casting to int from double changed completely in VS2005 Numbers that are too big are always -1 now. Which has caused me much pain to track down and is not compatible with code we currently use. Here is an example, it used to be that if you cast a big number to an int, you would some value that was related to it in some way: (int)1.0957837e+011 => -2090779696 But now it is always -1 if the value is out of the range of the int: (int)1.0957837e+011 => 0x80000000 Is there anyway to make Visual Studio 2005 use the old style of casting Thanks John Petritis I get an exception when casting using the old-style (C) cast from a double to a long when the value is extreamly large.

• Visual C# NewLine - Help plz...

  Hi there. I am trying to develop an application that uses a serial connected device. I' ve managed to create a UI that sends and receives data. Almost everything is working fine with the serial port object. My problem is that the serial port object sends one extra line feed, which terminates any receive of data of some commands. I would like to know how can I use the NewLine() property, so as to change the termination character. I've tried to write something like the following: port.NewLine = "\n" , port.NewLine = "null", port.NewLine = "\r", port.NewLine = "13" but none of the aforementioned ways worked. I would really appreciate any help of you. Thank you in advance.. ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Database is fine, Visual Basic Express just can't connect

  I have an SQL Express Database that I've been working on with Visual Basic Express. The database is properly configured for network use: I've added myself in as a user, I have the correct connection string (I'm attaching it to the server instance rather than going in via a user instance ), I can connect to it from Management Studio Express, I've set it to accept local & remote connections, I've spent a while crawling the web looking for something I've missed out but I can't find anything.

• Smart Device Development ORM tools for the compact framework

  Hello Everyone, Haven't found much info on this. Is anyone currently using an orm tool such as nhibernate for their compact framework apps Thanks! Ryan ORM is a nicety to speed up development. In the embedded world the speed of the app is generally more important. I wish I could use ORM but the apps I write generally have a lot more going on at the same time and I can't afford the performance hit along with the rest of it. I haven't tried NHibernate on CF but I don't assume it'd be that quick, I have tried DB40 though and that's can be about as reasonable as SqlCe ( e.g. too slow ) in a lot of situations so it might be worth checking out (requires a license for commerical projects). ...Show All

• Visual C# Window message without creating a form?

  Hello, Do I need to create a form just so I can have a handle I want my application to listen to window messages but it actually has no forms. It seems a bit wasteful to create a form just to listen for window messages, cant I give my entire application a WndProc function I'd like to use the bare minimum resources to do this. The form will have nothing on it so I think the best way would just be to use CreateWindow() but I'm not sure what else I need to use this, or how to create a WndProc function for it. Is there any basic code examples for creating a window using purley the API IsshouFuuraibou wrote: One thing to note is that the form itself is not what caus ...Show All

Now, how can I pass the value from ComboboxA to stored procedure value, e.g., "@StateKey" so that I can have the drop down list based on the selected value from A take a look at this for drilling down comboboxes, although this is doing it the "raw" approach http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx PostID=786157&SiteID=1 you would probably have to implement the SelectedIndexChanged event for the combobox then in here pe ...Show All
