  Hi When install vNext and Linq at home on VS 2005 Pro Edition there is no problem. But when I intalled it at work on VS 2005 Team Edition the error list is full.

• Visual C++ AfxLoadLibrary and mfc80u.dll & co

  I have the following problem, with a C++ project in Visual Studio 2005: In a program somewhere is used "AfxLoadLibrary", where a certain plugin.dll is loaded (it's in a Plugins folder). But it doesn't work, the error is something like "invalid reference addressed" or so. That .dll is also compiled in the project. I check this .dll with dependencywalker, and this says that the .dll doesn't find mfc80u.dll, msvcr80.dll and msvcp80.dll (or similar names, I have trouble remembering them). These .dlls are spread everywhere on my system so I find it very weird that it doesn't find it. It even doesn't find them if I put these "80"-dlls in the same folder as the plugin dll. So I think the solutio ...Show All

• Visual C# My DataSet Doesn't Work :S

  Hi, In my project I have one DataSet ('Step') from this I have two tables ('Students' and 'PostCode'). I have set them up in both the same way. I can successfully call Step.Students.FindBy(PK) and the function will return either null or not null depending on the results it finds, which is what it should do. However my second table I call Step.PostCode.FindBy(PK) and it always returns null no matter what is in the database. It actually returns null for everything, select, count etc. It looks to me like the dataset isn't actually connecting, even though my GridView successfully shows the content of the table I originally thought the changes weren't being committed but even when I use AcceptChanges() it still doesn't work. One thought I have ...Show All

• Smart Device Development static constructors in compact framework - size limit? - Solution

  If anyone has seen this before, I would appreciate some advice or a workaround. I'm trying to use a static constructor in a class using several jagged arrays. I can add a few of them, and it works okay, but after a certain limit, the application either throws a "System.NotSupportedException" or a fatal application error 0xC00000005. I haven't found anything on the web, and the application runs fine on the desktop. I trimmed this down to make the jagged arrays readable, but it looks like a textbook example of static constructors. public class MainClass { static void Main() { huffcodetab.inithuff(); } } public class huffcodetab { private static int[][] ValTab0; private static int[][] ValTab1; ...Show All

• Gadgets Basic Gadget Codes?

  I've been looking all around the net for an understandable guide to making gadgets. So far, I've found nothing. Does anyone know a good guide, or could post the basic codes I need and files I need to create Look at other Gadgets is your best way of learning. And use the Sidebar reference for the details on all the Methods etc. Start with something simple, like displaying an image from a website, so you can figure out all the Gadget specific code - the XML and gadget.html for example. Then go onto something more complicated, like settings pages, of which I wrote a How To as so many people fall foul of the differences between read and readString. Then perhaps Flyouts.
