• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Is adding every asset used to the project a necessity.

  As I ask this, I suspect that the answer may be that I just don't know enough about the content pipeline. In previous hobbyist games I've worked on, it's been common to have a file that specifies a level or UI setup including which textures to load. The game parsed this file and loaded the textures appropriately. This separated the art from the code and allowed artists to modify or create new levels without any work in Visual Studio. My understanding is that any asset that is used must now be added to VisualStudio if it is to be loaded through the ContentManager. Does this mean that when I create such a file which defines a level (including all assets) I must also add all of these assets to VisualStudio This seems.... to put it directl ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Declarative security in WCF

  Hi, Is there an equivalent to PrincipalPermissionAttribute that can declaratively demand that users own a specified claim. For example: [ClaimPermissionAttribute("http://www.domain.com/claims/myclaim")] public void MyService() { //this code won't run unless the current user //has the specified claim } Is there a way to do this, or does it have to be done in code Thanks, Kent Check out Michele's post in the thread: http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx PostID=729025&SiteID=1 Should do exactly what you need. ...Show All

• Visual C++ Help with ODBC connection

  C++ unmanaged Using ODBC: My app prompts the user for a DSN connection. It then stores the connection string and uses it later. Getting the connection string (this works): m_sDSN.Empty(); CDatabase db; if (db.OpenEx (m_sDSN, CDatabase::forceOdbcDialog)) { m_sDSN = db.GetConnect (); db.Close(); } This brings up the DSN selection dialog. Although I could choose differnent DSNs, for testing m_sDSN ends up with this connection string: "ODBC;DSN=RaptorSQL;APP=Raptor Client;WSID=SCOTT1;DATABASE=RaptorTest;Trusted_Connection=Yes" Later, when I want to open this connection (does not work): CDatabase db; if (db.OpenEx (m_sDSN, CDatabase::noOdbcDialog)) The problem is that the OpenEx() call throws thi ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Compile in Release

  I am in a huge rush right now. Between VS2003 and VS2005 they moved where you choose whether you compile in Debug or Release mode. Where is it now I have manually added the drop-down box to the tool bar, but it's grayed out. This is extremely frustrating and critical to testing DirectX stuff. That gave me the idear to look for a Run without Debugging button and add it to the toolbar. Guess what, it worked! Yay! Granted, it'd be nice if the dropdown worked as intended though. ...Show All

• SQL Server Need to get separate pages for each person..help

  I'm fairly new to RS and have a problem. I have a query that pulls information on people, courses they have taken, their score and so on. I have a date parameter setup so I can run it by year. Everything works ok on the query side, I get all the information I need on all the people and the courses they have taken. However, when I run the report, I do not get a separate page for each person and their relative information. The first page shows the first name and the rest of the 700 pages list all the courses and other information, with no break. How do I render the report so that I can get a separate page(s) for each person and their specific info I can glady provide more info/code if need be. Bill F ...Show All

• Visual C++ 64b development: Huge problem with VS2005 on a 32b OS

  Hi, I've just discovered this weird bug in VS2005: when compiling and linking my application with the x64 platform target on a computer running Windows 2000, the executable can't be run on a Win64 computer. I've spent a lot of time trying to solve this pronlem, and I found the following: - by using Depends, I found that it's the "exported symbols" table that's invalid in these files, - it seems to be related to the Embed manifest option, because disabling it will generate valid executables and dlls, - the problem doesn't happen if I link the file on a Win 64 computer. So it seems that the Embedding process is not correctly done for 64 bit executables on 32 bit computers. By searching for this problem on the internet, I found that - some us ...Show All
