• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) IIS with wshttpbinding VS windows service with netftpbinding

  Which config would you recomend for a server I think that for a server it should be better the IIS (threads perhaps are used better than using "the iis inside framework 3.0". What do you think I have services hosted both Windows Service and IIS and both work fine. Hosting in IIS provides the following benefits 1. Automatic activation of the Service and no need to write hosting code 2. You can deploy Source or binary (Just like aspx) 3. Health monitor, automatic process recyling and others.... ...Show All

• .NET Development Membership configuration from alternative config-file?

  Hi, I have the need to change the default config file, eg app.config, to something different. How can I instruct the Memership class to use the new location I cant seem to find any Configuration-specific properties or methods...And its static so I cant derive my own. Example: private MembershipProvider provider = Membership.Provider; The above line would initialize a provider using the configuration in app.config/web.config using the static Membership class. What I want is to have the "Membership.Provider" to obtain its data from an app.config in another directory. Are there any undocumented Memership instantiators or what do I do -- Werner   ...Show All

• Visual C++ CFileDialog subclassing

  I seem to be having lots of problems with this, are there any examples around I can get things to work how I expect under VisualC++ 6, but under 2005, I either get ignored (dlg.DoModal() returns instantly with ID_CANCEL), or it crashes with an assertion failure. Under 2005 I've tried two different ways so far (both using code in the overridden CFileDialog methods) Creating a dialog resource and using SetTemplate in the dialog constructor. This reserves the space at the bottom of the dialog, but doesn't show any of the controls, so I just get a lot of blank space. Secondly, not bothering with SetTemplate, and creating my own controls manually in OnInitDone. The controls appear and are usable, but I don't get any messages about them. I've ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Call Beep function failed in a service.

  Call Beep function would return FALSE, error code:0x6BA, it can worked normally on WinXP. Error code: (Win32) 0x6ba (1722) - The RPC server is unavailable. I would guess that the sound service has not yet started. Beeping the console (as well as displaying any form of UI) from a service doesn't make too much sense in Vista. Services run in session 0, totally removed from any logged in user. In this particular case, if there were multiple users logged into the machine, which user should hear the beep ...Show All
