• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Loading and rendering .swm files

  Does anyone have any code for loading an .swm file and rendering it on screen I'm just trying to get one of the space ships to work for now, I've copied the swm file, and the following classes from Spacewar: AssetCache MeshCache SimpleMesh SimpleMeshRenderer and then I'm calling this OnStart: meshes = new MeshCache ( this ); meshRenderer = meshes[ @"D:\\player.swm" ]; and in my Draw() method, I'm doing: meshRenderer.Render(); However nothing appears :( I can move the camera around, so I don't think it's appearing in the wrong place, I just don't think it's being loaded at all. I'm trying to keep the amount of code for this to a minimum, since it'll all be replaced, which is why I just copied all the above ...Show All

• Visual C++ How do you use breakpoints in Visual C debugger when running a C++ DLL with a VB executable file as the calling program?

  I meant to ask, how do you use breakpoints when you are running the debugger in Visual C to run a dll in conjuction with an executable file as the calling program   The breakpoints aren't retained after I start the debugger.  I haven't as of yet found anything in the Help information about it.  I have been copying an executable file of the VB calling program into the directory that the dll cpp file is in, then going into the open window and double clicking on the executable file of the vb calling program, then selecting "start debug" from the pulldown menu in VC.  The breakpoints were set before all this.  It gives me a message saying that the breakpoints were not retained. With the DLL as the active projec ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Postbuild and prebuild scripts

  I am using the newly released CTP 5 and have been trying to use the postbuild scripts and prebuild scripts to add certificates as well as permissions for a database. However, when I try to deploy the project I get an error saying that it can't find a procedure when trying to assign the permissions and it looks like the postbuild scripts and prebuild scripts are being combined and run together, both before any of the other database scripts (tables, procedures, functions, etc.) are deployed. My question is there a better way to deploy the permissions for the database other then putting them in the postbuild script or is there a way to fix it so that the postbuild scripts is run only after the main database scripts are run ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Is there automatic reloading and executing when recovering from a crash?

  Hi This may be a stupid question but I really need to know what to do in this case. I'm developing a state machine workflow, I have an EventDrivenActivity with a TransactionScopeAcitivty in which I have activities to save to my data model. If something goes horribly wrong after the persistence point on the close of the TransactionScopeActivity before the persistence on idle (I have this set). Can I expect that when the outside factors are resolved the runtime will take care of reloading this partially complete EventDrivenActivity automatically and finish exection from after the TransactionScopeActivty. Or... am I going to need to somehow check for this situation and load the workflow instance to have it continue exection Any help wo ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions How to create a Inheritable user control...

  Hello everybody, I'm trying to create a User Control that inherits from another User Control, but under the Add --> User Control command I don't see nothing that permit to choose some inheritable options... Can you help me Thank you very much! igorbaITALY, Take the DataBoundControl an example. The following code example demonstrates how to derive a class from the DataBoundControl class to create a custom data-bound control. The TextBoxSet control creates a TextBox control for each data item retrieved from its associated data source control, and binds to the value of the data item at run time. The current implementation of the Render method renders the TextBox controls as an unordered list. Imports System Imports ...Show All

• Visual Studio SSH connection doesn't allow using VS custom project

  Hi, Our integration implements our own project system. All works fine while you are working using private access to ssh server. In case of usage of public access (when ssh server doesn't require password for log in) the following command fails: devenv /Build my.sln Error message says that our project type is not supported because of package load failure and suggest running devenv /resetskippkgs. What is the possible reason for this Thanks in advance, Vadim. Hi Vadim, There are many potential reasons for a package load failure, although you will need to attach a debugger to devenv while it is doing the build to nail the reason down. Is your project system/package attempting to p ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Audio Volume

  Hi, I have another question. Is it possible to display audio input and/or out put levels as seperate channels (Left and Right) I have two of the the VU audiometer ( http://www.codeproject.com/useritems/KEMA_Code.asp ) on my form. one named 'Left' and the other 'Right'. Any help would be great. Nope, It's C#, though it uses quite a bit of DLL calls, so it might look complicated at a first glance. Though, the class basically gives you two static methods. SetVolume which takes an int as its parameter, and GetVolume, which returns an int. So basically you should be able to copy and paste all of the code, and then just use those two methods (aslong as you just want to get or set the volume). I should add that I haven't ...Show All

• Visual C# How to Create a URL syntax checker in C#

  I would like to create a URL syntax checker so that can verify a cerrtain URL not a phish site. But I am also aware that some URL have valid syntax but is still a phish site.

• Windows Forms typed DataSet not loading relations from DB

  I've literally had this problem everytime i've tried to use Typed DataSet I have just a default database made in VS, in it i have 2 tables relating to each other. (Lets say Member Table, and Association Table, ie Members would have 1 association, related by PK in Association and FK in Member) i then drag those tables (with the relation) into an xsd, which creates the relation and tables in that. I then compile the Typed Dataset, and get the generated classes. So then in my application, I load the information using a DataAdapter and get lets say a MemberRow object For the life of me, the AssociationRow property of the MemberRow (ie the parent row property that the dataset defines) NEVER has a value, It's always ...Show All
