• Software Development for Windows Vista Work Flow WIth Bar Coding

  I was wondering if anyone had put together any good classes to work with barcode systems Thanks In advance John Russo scaleprogrammers.com Hi, John You may wrap your barcode system within a web service, You workflow can then call with your barcode web service.  You may also expose your workflow or the host as a web service, then barcode system can call them as well. You can have a look at the workflow Lab 06.  Hope this solution will solve your problem. Jim ...Show All

  Can some one tell me how to access Windows Vista SDK documentation from Visual Studio 2005 IDE I thought this would be automatic after installing the SDK. Thanks in advance. The installation sequence was: Windows Vista Ultimate (New Install) > VS 2005 > MSDN Library (August 2006) > Windows Vista SDK > NET Framework 3.0 > VS 2005 Extensions. In any case, I have completed the integration using the help collection manager, as you suggested. Thank you so much for your help. ...Show All

• Visual C# why the format is not uniform

  private void port_DataReceived(object sender, SerialDataReceivedEventArgs e) { comport.ReadTimeout = 300; String s = comport.ReadExisting(); using (StreamWriter sw = new StreamWriter(@"C:\test.txt",true)) { sw.Write(DateTime.Now.ToShortTimeString() +" "+ s); sw.Flush(); sw.Close(); } } The above method is used to write data from the SerialPort to a text file.

• SQL Server Transaction Question

  I'm fairly new with Service Broker and have been working on my first Service Broker application. I am using it in a .NET based application we've created. All transactions in our application are started, rolled back or committed from within our C# code tier. From what I've read, any time a message is put on a queue or read from a queue, it should be done from within the context of a transaction. Here are my questions. 1) Since our .NET app begins all transactions, I cannot begin and end a transaction in any stored procedure our app calls, that puts a message on the queue, because that would conflict with the transaction we already have in place, created in our .NET app. Is this correct 2) If #1 above is correct, any message put on ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Adding a .x Model to the Pipeline by hand

  Hey all, I was just curious if there's any way to add a Model from a .x file to the project by code (ie- without using the GSE's asset creation functionality). I've disected my .csproj file, and I got something like the following, but I don't really know how to translate this to code. ContentPipeline.xml is just an internal cache file used for the incremental rebuild functionality. You can ignore this. The content pipeline is only needed to compile your meshes and textures. The *.cs or *.py source code is compiled separately (although in the case of Python I think maybe you just run the .py files directly without needing to compile them first Don't know exactly how that works). Once you've run the content build, you will ...Show All

• SQL Server file corrupted message on query of restored db

  The analysis services database is operational on original server where it was processed. I backed it up and restored backup on another machine, and it fails to display data with message like this: The query could not be processed: o File system error: The following file is corrupted: Physical file: \\ \F:\MSOLAPDATA\mycube.24.db\cubedev.119.cub\datafacts19.172.det\cubedev.67.prt.fact.data.

• Visual C++ class destructor not operated.

  Hello, I have a question about destructor in a class. In the below code I was expecting the destructor part of the code to be executed and the message printed out. However, I only see the constructor message. This is the output: "We're in the constructor with arguments Press any key to continue . . ." Why is the destructor message not printed #include <iostream> using namespace std; class Point { public : Point( float f_x = 1.0, float f_y = 1.0, float f_z = 1.0); ~Point(); private : float x, y, z; protected : }; Point::Point( float f_x, float f_y, float f_z) { cout << "We're in the constructor with arguments" << endl; } ...Show All

• Visual Basic Streamwriter in VB 2005

  This SHOULD be easy. I must be missing something. I'm assembling a long string and trying to write it out to a file. If I display it in a message box or textbox, it looks fine. But when I write it out to a file, it gets chopped off. I thought it might be my data, because it is supposed to be HTML, but it seems to be related to the amount of data, because it chops off at about the same number of lines no matter what the data. I tried breaking it into smaller strings and doing two writelines, but it still does the same thing. lname = names(1) outFile = "D:\Class of 57\updatehtm\" & lname & ".htm" output = New FileStream(outFile, FileMode.OpenOrCreate, FileAccess.Write) fileWriter = New StreamWriter(outp ...Show All

• .NET Development CLR components cannot be added to a project using old Syntax c++

  Hi, I am working on migrating a Visual C++ project into .NET environment. The project in its current state compiles and runs just fine with CLR support, and I can use clr components such as windows forms provided that I write the code myself, but Visual Studio does not let me add a Windows Form, using the Add New Item into the project, and it gives me the error "CLR components cannot be added to a project using old Syntax c++. Please convert the project to use the new syntax." Does anyone know what the problem might be Thank you. The VS2005 Windows Forms designer can only generate code in the C++/CLI syntax and no longer supports the Managed C++ syntax. You'll either need to convert y ...Show All

  Ok I'm still relatively new to programming...
