• .NET Development GetChanges - Update - Merge result in redudant row

  I would like some assistance in the following situation. A table has 0 rows Row is added to table (table.rows.add) Table has 1 row GetChanges is called Update is called Merge is called Table has 2 rows (!) I suppose that this has to do with the primary key of table being autoincrement (both in database and in typed table). What's the procedure to do this right papadi wrote: I think I found the solution! http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ks9f57t0.aspx Search for "Merging" in this article.

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) WCF integration with GSOAP

  Hi, I’m trying to write a c++ client that talks to .net WCF server. For that aim I’m using the GSOAP application. I was successful in writing a c++ client that talks to an asp.net server, but when I tried to write c++ client and a WCF server they failed to interact. When the client sent a request to the server the following fault was received: Error 415 fault: SOAP-ENV:Server [no subcode] "HTTP Error" Detail: HTTP/1.1 415 Cannot process the message because the content type 'application/soap+xml; charset=utf-8' was not the expected type 'text/xml; charset=utf-8'.

• Visual C++ Depricated Functions

  Hello I have just now ported my VC 6.0 to Visual Studio 2005. I am facing with some crashes in my application. The place where i am finding this is the depricated functions,specifically now i am facing an error with strcpy. I dont know y it is crashing..can anyone please help me on how do i work with the depricated functions. Thanks & Regards, Ravi Kanth Your problem is most likely that pszText doesn't point to a buffer large enough to contain the string from TabTitle. Try something similar to this: size_t nStrSize = strlen(TabTitle); if(nStrSize > 0) { char* pszText = new char[nStrSize]; strncpy_s(pszText, nStrSize, TabTitle, nStrSize); // do something with the buffer delete[] pszText; } ...Show All

• Smart Device Development VS 2005 vs. Platform Builder

  Is VS 2005 a complete replacement for Platform Builder i.e. what if anything do I need Platform Builder for No, It's not. Platform Builder is the tool you need to design and build your 'own' Windows CE OS for a custom hardware device.

• Visual Basic Iterating through a given component type in a VB form

  Hello all, I am looking for a way to iterate through a given component type in a VB form. For example, if I want to go through all the buttons found in a given form and change their text to "XYZ", is there perhaps a "For Each" technique to do that The alternative is an ugly hardcoding of the button names, in the above example, and changing their text one by one ... not what I want. Cheers all. N.

• Visual C# Uploading With Webservices!

  Hi, I have a web serivce to upload file. What will be the best way to upload file using web service . Convert file into Base64string and the pass it to web service or some thing else... Any help will be appreciated... There are a number of options you can use for transmitting large amounts of binary data. The solution you've listed (known as base-64-encoding) is an okay solution. Your data will be transmitted properly and it will be contained within your SOAP envelope (meaning that you can use things like WS-Security) if you want. It is a highly interoperable and composable solution. The downside is that it isn't a very efficient solution. Base 64 encoding of your binary data results in it bloating up anywhere from 33-100% during ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Ann: A "Proper" Text Rendering Component

  Hi! I'm just in the process of writing a proper text rendering component for XNA. It fully integrates into the content pipeline and can import any TrueType font during compile time. Just like any other XNA framework content, an .xnb file is generated from the font which can at runtime be loaded by XNA's ContentManager, eg. BitmapFont myFont = this .content.load< BitmapFont >(   "Content/Fonts/Arial" ); // ... this . myFont.drawText(   new Vector2 (100.0f, 100.0f),   "Hello World" ,   Color .White ); The component is still in development and there will likely be some changes in its interface, but it's already fully usable. If you want to give it a go, you can find the component here: http://www.nuclex.org/fra ...Show All
