• Visual C# C# components

  hello! how to use components which are not part C# tool bar. mean i downloaded XP progress bar from Code project and now i want to include it in my programme. what the way i will use You say "as usual", but in fact very many of the components on CodeProject are available in source code form. And the original poster said he got the component from CodeProject. So it's not a foregone conclusion that it will be in a DLL. If you have the source, as you often will from CodeProject, it's usually preferable to add that code to your project rather than packaging it as a separate DLL. Putting it into a separate DLL complicates deployment, as you've now got an extra file to ship. So if you have the choice, in most scenario ...Show All

• Smart Device Development .Net Compact Framework version on T-Mobile Dash?!

  I just downloaded all the development goodies and am trying to write an app for use on my T-Mobile Dash. Got a few forms thrown together and want to check it out on the Dash itself so went through the CAB wizard and got it installed on my phone. When I try to run it on the phone (not the emulator) I get the following error: "This application requires a newer version of the Microsoft .NET Compact Framework than the version installed on this device." How do I figure out which version is on the Dash, how can I update it so my application runs That did the trick perfectly! Thanks a lot for your help, I really appreciate it ...Show All

• Windows Forms BUG: TabPage not resizing/repainting properly

  Steps to reproduce:    Open up a new WindowsApplication    Add a SplitContainer to the form (Dock should default to "Fill")    Add a TabControl inside each of the two SplitContainer panels    Set both TabControls Dock properties to fill so they fill up each panel Now run the app and move the splitter around.  You'll notice that the client area of the tab pages are not fully repainted to fill the gaps left by moving the splitter.  You will also notice that other events like changing the selected tab or minimizing/maximizing the form causes the tab control to be repainted properly.  Please fix!  Using .NET Forms runtime version v2.0.50727.

• SQL Server Datetime function glitch -- same settings, different results

  hi guys, i am encountering a pretty weird problem on our SQL database stored procs, particularly those concerning datetime functions. we have two setups, one is on london, and another one is here in singapore. both servers have the same regional settings, the same database tables, stored procs and functions, almost the same in every aspect. the only difference we know is that one is a direct database cut (sql 7.0), while the other used database migration in win2k. here goes: all stored proc functions work just fine on the singapore setup. the london setup however, is not working at all! it does all the functions like change flags and status, but it doesn't update dates nor search for data by date. i have also checked on the collision ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. I could use a clearer explanation of 360 garbage collection and performance monitor

  I bet others could, too. Are the numbers and timings in this article still accurate http://blogs.msdn.com/netcfteam/archive/2006/12/22/managed-code-performance-on-xbox-360-for-xna-part-2-gc-and-tools.aspx If I understand it, if my game has 100,000 live objects (a live object is any call to new a class that still has a pointer to it, right ), then I can expect a 15 msec hitch every time the GC is run, which if I'm trying to run at 60 will cause a visible stutter. According to the performance monitor, I'm currently facing a 23 msec GC. My game actually seems to be running surprisingly well if that's the case - are the garbage collections done on a different core Is there a number in the performance monitor that tells me how many live object ...Show All

• Windows Forms How-to change default publish.htm?

  I do not want to manually change my publish.htm everytime I publishes. After all if that is the case then the auto generated page just turn useless. How do I customize the default publish.htm Let's say I need it localized or something for example. So, it's not like we didn't think about it . We actually gave the most flexible solution we could imagine. We have given a sample, that you can modify or copy what you like to fit your needs. Unless you really want to have the version # in the web page, the links actually point to a .application file that is not versioned. So your page really doesn't need to update. It was useful to have it in the "sample" web page we provided for debugging a ...Show All
