• Visual Studio Team System URL Encoding of Location property in FxCop Properties window

  When I view a warning in the properties window in FxCop it shows the location as an URI like file:///c:/temp/foo.cs This works nicely for directory/filenames without spaces or encodeable characters. Unfortunately the project I'm working on is in a directory with 2 spaces in its name and therefore doesn't work correctly (a file not found error) I've noticed that in the details window (double clicking on a warning) it shows the correct (unencoded) value for the location. Is this likely to change in a future version or will this remain the same ...Show All

• Visual Basic Cursor flickers and IDE Not responding ....

  I'm using VB 2005 and having a issue while in design mode in the IDE. I click on a control to change some of the properties, like the Name or Text and my cursor starts to flicker like crazy. Mine flickers SizeAll cursor type, I've heard others flicker on hourglass. Anyway it flickers and the IDE goes into a Not responding mode for about 30-45 secs. If only happened once then it wouldn't be that bad, but as I'm layout a form it happens about every 2 minutes which is real drag. Anybody have any solutions Besides going back to VS 2003 Thanks ..... I often have this problem too. Overall, the windows forms designer performance is horrific in many cases. Takes ages to switch to form design view, enters som ...Show All

• .NET Development Socket Connect/Disconnect

  Hello.  I have a specific question I hope someone in the forum can answer. I am writing an application that will collect data from several instruments over tcp.  I am implementing this by assigning a socket to each instrument I want to connect to, and then establishing a connection to the instruments IP address (port 502, MODBUS communication protocol requires this port).  I have a form where a user can enter the IP address of the instrument and then click a button beside it to test if the application is able to connect to the specified instrument.  The button procedure Connects to the socket and then Shuts it down and closes it.  I have no problems connecting to it initially, but if I try to test the connection ...Show All

  Hello! I am evaluating Windows Communication Foundation framework to discover, if it can be used to develop web service intermediary.

• Visual C++ strtol strangeness?

  I'm probably missing something very simple, perhaps I'm tired. Why is it that the line of code "DWORD DWordValue = 0xF988FA1F; " places the proper hex value into the DWordValue variable (4186503711, 0xF988FA1F), but this line of code "DWordValue = strtol("0xF988FA1F", NULL, 16);" places the unanticipated value (2147483647, 0x7FFFFFFF) Don't Long and DWORD size to 4 bytes What am I doing wrong I am testing this because I need to read hex strings in from a file, and then write them as REG_DWORDs to registry sub-key named values. (Any easy ways to do that would also be useful). I have been avoiding that ever since I ported this app to VS2005! This app is HUGE and unfortuna ...Show All

• SQL Server Full Cached Lookup with Parameters

  Parameterized queries are only allowed on partial or none cache style lookup transforms, not 'full' ones. Is there some "trick" to parameterizing a full cache lookup, or should the join simply be done at the source, obviating the need for a full cache lookup at all (other suggestion certainly welcome) More particularly, I'd like to use the lookup transform in a surrogate key pipeline. However, the dimension is large (900 million rows), so its would be useful to restrict the lookup transform's cache by a join to the source. For example: Source query is: select a,b,c from t where z=@filter (20,000 rows) Lookup transform query: select surrogate_key,business_key from dimension (900 M rows, not tenable) Ideal Lookup ...Show All
