• Visual C++ C6.0->VS2005 -user messsages- ON_MESSAGE error C2440: 'static_cast'

  Help Needed: I'm moving a program from C6.0 to Visual Studio 2005 C++.  It's an MFC program.  The problem I am having is with ON_MESSAGE handling user messages.  The compiler is not happy with the function prototype for the message handler.  I've made the needed changes to the code to satisfy the stronger type checking of this compliler, but don't understand the 'static_cast' comment.  I've tried making the function 'static', but it makes no difference to the compiler.

• Windows Forms Changing size property

  How do I enable the changing of size of a control like combobox Thanks. regards Alu Hi everyone I solved that ComboBox height problem making first Panel container and dropping ComboBox to this container. To change Combos height simply change Panels Font size property as ComboBox's height depends by font size. At runtime you can use ComboBox.SetBoundsCore method protected override void SetBoundsCore( Int32 x, Int32 y, Int32 width, Int32 height, BoundsSpecified specified ); and again you need think 'height' by font units plus some border space. I think. Hope this helps you. ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Working without DB Pro

  We've got a fairly large number of developers (150). Most of them won't be receiving VSTSDBP. Some of those that don't receive it may still need to check some stored procs out of TFS & work with them. Since the scripts within DB Pro don't have drop and aren't alter, does anyone have a suggestion for working in this manner We're looking at a process solution where we do a daily build that would wipe out any work done on a database so they would need to get any changes to us prior to the next build. However, it seems like it could be full of holes. Well, they're your files, so you can check them out, edit them, and check them back in :-) Be sure to encode them properly, however. We expect the file ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) WCF Client blues (MSDN Subscriber)

  Hello.  I have been trying to write a WCF client to consume a java-based web service secured by Apache WSS4J but have not been successful.  The web service requirements are: 1. Must be accessed via https (i.e. SSL). 2. Request must use SOAP 1.1 format. 3. The SOAP Body in the request must be signed, with the BinarySecurityToken (X509 certificate) embedded in the headers, per WS-Security 1.0 spec. 4. However, the web service itself does NOT sign the responses.  So, the client must NOT expect the response to have any WS-Security headers in it. First off, how would you implement your WCF client given the above requirements   If only someone can answer this question, I'd be in heaven.  ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) H Disable visually impairing ClearType in WPF?

  Hello,   I'm a developer and spend quite a bit of time on the computer.   After upgrading to the latest expression betas, I noticed the expression products got a nice UI overhaul.   They look nice!   However, I wear glasses for viewing objects in the distance because of my myopic vision and I do not use my glasses while working on the computer because I can see things quite clearly up close.   I've tried ClearType technology in the past, and tried various ClearType PowerToy tweak settings and still find that clear type anti-aliases fonts and makes them appear "blurry", "fuzzy" and "soft".   After working with the new expression products with ClearType enabled for about 3 minutes, my ey ...Show All

• Visual C# Adding licensing capability to my app

  Good day. I'm looking for a way to add licensing to my application. By this I mean I want to be able to control how many users are able to work with the software. It would be best if they generated a license file, for example, and sent it back to me, where I could 'activate' the file and send it back to them, thus preventing unauthorized use of the software. What is the best way of doing this Surely there must be some MS tools that help you add this to your app Any help would be greatly appreciated. V. The Volume Serial Number way is a bad idea because if I format my drive, for example to re-install Windows, then it gets a new Volume Serial. Then, the application that is locked to it will fail to work. ...Show All

• .NET Development Connection String in Client / Server Application, Strong typed Dataset

  Sorry bout the subject, but it is my conundrum. I have a solution (C#) that is fat clients (winforms) talking to a database (SQL Server 2005). Our solution uses a strong typed dataset for all of its operation for the various benefits gained therein. I have used untyped solutions, and when you write the dataadapters, its very easy to customise the connection string. However strong typed, you must specify the connection string at design time. Our server deployment must be hands off, and thus my problem. I have created a customised database installer that obtains information entered by the Administrator on how to connect to the database, and I have a way to take that information and put it into a string. What I need is a writa ...Show All
