• .NET Development Exposing functionality via remoting

  Hi, I need to expose different functionality via remoting to different clients, and can't decide on which way to go. Need guru advice. Architecture details, simplified: Layer 1: DB server Layer 2: Middleware servers. All servers work with DB and communicate with other layer 2 and layer 3 servers via Remoting (tcp). Layer 3: Frontend. Servers provide interface to the user applications via Remoting (tcp and http). They call middleware servers to perform actions via Remoting (tcp). Middleware servers can push data to them (tcp). The data will be pulled then by clients. Layer 4: Clients, applications and servers. Call Layer 3 (tcp and http) to perform actions and pull data. I use custom authentication for Layer 4 -> Layer 3 communi ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista What happens to running workflows when the workflow is changed?

  Hello, My website uses a workflow for document approval. I was wondering what happens to running workflow instances when I exchange the workflow for a different workflow. For instance, what happens if the current state of the document is removed from the workflow Or what happens if some transitions are different in the new workflow Or is the complete workflow instance stored in the database each time and will the new workflow only be used for the new instances created after the update I hope my question is clear... The entire workflow instance is serialized. If you have a running workflow, say v1.0.1 with some activitites, and then you blow away this assembly and replace it with v1.0.2 whic ...Show All

• Visual Basic OCX version Control

  Hello, We have a product that uses several of OCXs. We would like to sell this product over the web and have clients download it and run in on their machines. Unfortunately, if the OCX version the client has differs from ours by so much as a hotfix, our program crashes. What can be done about this Do we have to compile this product using many different versions of OCXs We can't distribute our OCXs with the project because that could cause a conflict on the client's machine. Surely I'm not the first person to encounter this problem. What have other done about this Any help would be sincerely appreciated! Jordan ...Show All

• Visual C# Unable to load configuration from the XML configuration file: <My Config File>

  I have this strange issue, when running my application from a network share that has a config file I get the following error message. Unable to load configuration from the XML configuration file: 'H:\Rufus.Net\Code\Bnye.12.51.15.2\Rufus\Redist_Release\RFS.exe.config'. This can be caused by a number of problems, but the most common problem is an incorrectly configured Updater configuration file. The most probable sources of error are: missing nodes, incorrect attribute names, white space within attributes or within elements, white space between elements in the same sub-node, badly formed xml, or xml that does not conform to the ConfigSchema.XSD. I don't get this problem running it locally. Also I've tried setting Full ...Show All

• SQL Server Web Service Task always failing

  Executing the simplest of Web Service tasks consistently fail with the error: "Object reference not set to an instance of an object".

• SQL Server Convert HEX to Text

  I have an image data type in a table (it is a digital signature) and one of my users wants me to search the image data and see how many people have a certain attribute in their digital signature. I know the image data is HEX, but how, in query analyzer, can I view it as the XML digital signature data that it really is So, how can I convert hex to text in sql server Thanks, but that doesn't help. I had actually found that on a Google search, but it only works for numbers, when the data is really XML. I did, however, find that SQL Manager 2005 for SQL Server can show the image field as the XML that it really is, so I was able to kind of get the data out that I needed. A bit of a convoluted way, and I on ...Show All
