• Windows Networking Development About DSCP and 802.1p tag

  For packet priority, I can use QWave to set DSCP tag, which is verifyed by capturing packet with ethereal. However, 802.1p tag is not showned in the captured packet. How to set 802.1p tag by qWAVE Thanks for any help... With Qos2 (qWAVE), you don't have to worry about DSCP and 802.1p. The underlying platform will always add the correct DSCP and will also add 802.1p if: The end-to-end path supports it The destination host your sending to is on the same IP subnet Your qWAVE flow is adaptive (as opposed to non-adaptive) Regarding (1), packets with 802.1p tags get erroneously dropped all the time. Myriad APs, NIC drivers, switches, etc. drop packets with 1p tags for different reasons. Becau ...Show All

• Windows Live Developer Forums Dashboard control

  Hi, How can I specify the dashboard position on the map In V2 there was an object parameter in MapControl() constructor. Using this object parameter I was able to specify where I want to place the dashboard. Is there something similar in V3 I tried playing with .Compass and .Zoombar styles but they move only compass and zoom bar respectively - the dashboard (light blue semitransparent box) remains in upper left corner of the map. Thank you, olley. Wow! That's exactly what I need. May be it is not ideal and not documented but it works Thank you guys! ...Show All

• Visual J# Differences in 1.1 vs. 2.0 -- sockets/networking

  We have a J# layer that communicates with our mainframe. It maintains a pool of GU3270 emulation connections. Prior to deploying 2.0, our virtual machines were able to suspend for backup for periods of approximately 5 minutes every night, and resume service immediately afterward without difficulty. Since deploying 2.0, it seems as though the VMWare freeze on the server image, if frozen for a long enough (4+ minutes it seems) period of time, leaves us with dead sockets in the connection pool. The connection pool is unable to close the connections, as either the sockets, or their output buffers, are null/disposed after image thaw. Without being able to properly close the connections from its perspective, the pool cannot reinstantiate them ...Show All

• SQL Server Server: the operation has been cancelled. a memory bug?

  When I highlight a few partitions and start processing, the process occasionally stops with a message that operation has been canceled, like this: Response 3 Server: the operation has been cancelled. Response 4 Server: the operation has been cancelled. Response 5 Server: the operation has been cancelled. ..etc... (no further error message details are provided) SQL profiler shows that batch was completed (but rowcount shown in process progress log is too small). Analysis Services profiler shows no messages at that time at all. It just shows messages when it started, and when I restarted the processing. The Analysis trace appears to be stopped when processing stops with " Server: the operation has been cancelled.&quo ...Show All

• Visual Basic how to uninstall my own application

  I have a vb.net program that runs invisibly - no task bar, no icon, no VISIBLE form. It can't be shut down by the user outside of the standard windows shutdown. This part works. If the user wants to uninstall this program, they need to open up the application and enter an uninstall code that turns off the program so it can be uninstalled. A tray icon is not an option. QUESTION: If I have a program that is running invisibly, is it possible to click an icon that makes the program become visible Yes, you can make another application that when it is executed (by clicking its icon) it searches for your application and activates it (makes it visible as long as you provide a mehtod for doing so) ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. collision detection - alpha channel mask?

  I'm making a tile-based game, and some of the tiles are part walkable, part not-walkable. (like half mountain, half dirt). I need a way to determine which part of the tile can be walked on and which part can't. I can't do it based on pixel color, so I wanted to know if anyone could help me out with some bright ideas. I remember hearing something about an alpha channel mask you can put over your tiles, or recreate the tileset in black and white to designate walkable/not walkable. Is that the best (or only) way to pull this off If so, that would double the size of my tileset file George Clingerman wrote: XNA Rockstar wrote: And George...what are you, the XN ...Show All

• Visual Studio Tools for Office Programmatically enable and verify Data Cache

  I'm posting this question in a new thread. I have a separate DAO.cs file with a static dataTable which I have typed in as [Cached] before its declaration. The static dataTable is being populated by some actionPane combo entries. The dataTable is bound to a ListObject. If I save, close and repoen the application, the listObject maintains the previously added records but as soon as I add another set of entries from the actionsPane, the ListObject gets reset and my previous entries get erased, being replaced by the newly added entry. (Meaning that the dataTable has been reset) What am I supposed to in order to have the system check the cache first, fill in the dataTable (which in turn populates the listobject) with previously added entri ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Tool for auto HLSL Generation?

  Are there any tools out there to enable the graphical building of a shader network, such as in Autodesk Maya's Hypershade tool or Softimage XSI's RenderTree tool, which can enable you to use a GUI to set up an object's basic material properties and then automatically generate the appropriate HLSL shader fragments needed to reproduce the material effect in your game without having to manually write HLSL files Certainly, if you want to create complex shader effects, you would need to be able to edit the HLSL or manually create new custom HLSL files, but for creating HLSL files to render basic, standard material properties, there really should be a graphical tool to take some of the work and difficulty out of it. Such a tool should allo ...Show All

• SQL Server SP2 Slows Down Time Intelligence

  Can somebody else verify that performance decreases in SP2 where time intelligence is concerned. Below is my simple repro on AdventureWorks. I already have an open question in a prior thread to ask why [Year to Date] is so much slower than [Current Date] where fiscal semester [2004][1] is concerned. [Current Date] runs in 2 seconds after clearing the cube cache. My question for this thread is why did my [Year to Date] query go from 1 minute in SP1 to 2 minutes in SP2 Does anyone know how to get the 2 second execution that I would expect from a [Year to Date] query Step 3 below runs in 1 or 2 minutes depending on if you have SP1 or SP2 Step 4 runs in 2 seconds 1.
