• .NET Development Generic sorting of list/array with XML rule set

  Hi, I was wondering if someone has some input on what I'm trying to do here: I want to have an XML that declare a custom sort order for items in a list like: <Item> <Index>0</Index> <Value>X</Value> </Item> <Item> <Index>1</Index> <Value>A</Value> </Item> So, somehow I pass that XML rule set to the IComparer and it sorts an list like this [A,X,B] to [X, A, B]. Anyone has an idea how to implement something like this in a generic way so I can add an infinite amount of items to the sort order XML Thanks, Tom Hi, I think this is what you are looking for: class MyClass < T > { private List < T > ...Show All

• Visual Studio Question: How to intercept Compiler Errors and Warnings?

  Hi all, I've tried asking questions on the "Extensibility" portion of the forum, but no one is answering, and I'm running out of ideas. How can I get access to the raw compiler error information I'd like to be able to keep track of the error numbers along with information such as the line, the file, and the description of the error. It looks as if the Engine class allows you to register a Logger class with it, which would give me access to the error/warning events I'm interested in. However, after I register a FileLogger or my own Logger class, I do not receive any of the associated events. My custom logger does enter initialize and shutdown, and the filelogger does create an output file, but neither seem to be getting other events they ...Show All

• SQL Server SSIS Port

  Hi: Just wanted to find out what port does SSIS utilizes when communicated with a remote SQL Server. Is it 1434, 1433 or something I have a SSIS Package on Server 1, which which does inserts on SQL DB on Server 2. I think between Server 1 and Server 2, some ports are being blocked because the 2 servers are separated by a firewall. When SSIS makes connection to Server 2 (SQL), what ports does it use Also, any other tips would also help. Here is the error I am getting: Cannot connect to 10.xx.xx.xx. =================================== An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not al ...Show All

• Visual Basic Constant or not to constant

  I was wondering is Constant better than inline code for example: public class example const MyHello as string="Hello world" private sub Button1_Click(........) messagebox.show(MyHello) end sub end class To this: public class example2 private sub Button1_Click(........) dim MyHello as string="Hello world" messagebox.show(MyHello) end sub end class Forgive the coding simplification, just typing directly what i think is needed. I was planing on using it to be able to program a different language in a future version. Unless if there is another way to do multiple languages and a basic tutorial on how to do it would be apreciated. ...Show All

• Windows Search Technologies WDS 3.0 Beta 2- Rebuilding index by itself and more

  Hey Guys, Brandon pointed this as the right place to post some concerns/issues with the WDS 3.0 beta 2 Few issues with WDS 3.0 beta 2: - When adding a new file extension to be indexed, WDS prompts to full rebuild of the index. This is a very bad behaviour especially, like me that has more than 100,000 indexable items. (anyway to avoid that ) - The WDS is rebuilding the index itself without any user intervention - The current pdf I-filter are not capable to index within the pfd files. - The configuration GUI interface still very rough, clearly need some refining. That's it for now. Thanks, Marcus   Thanks Paul. If you need I can send you a copy of the .xlsx files that are not being indexed. Plea ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Clocks getting out of sync

  Hi. I have a ParallelTimeline, containing several MediaTimelines. I need to allow the user to add/remove MediaElements, Pause, Resume, etc. If I get it correctly, every time I change the parent timeline, I need to recreate the clock tree, in order for all sub timelines to be syncronized. So on every user change, I call CreateClock on the ParallelTimeline, and iterate over its Children, assigning the generated sub MediaClock to the various MediaElements. This works fine, but when I have media failure on one MediaElement, the whole ParallelTimeline stops working. I.e. when I call CreateClock again, no media is played. What is going wrong Thanks. Thanks for your post. To answer your ...Show All
