• Audio and Video Development Query About page clock behaviour

  Hi to all, I have a doubt about the behaviour of page when the document.load() API is called. As far as I know, whatever changes have taken place on the markup page, all gets reflected when the document.load() is called, but does it also mean that the "page clock" gets reset. In one of my scenario, I am passing the event at the -- select=//body begin="1s" dur="1s" event=foo -- and in the script, I am calling document.load(). Will the page clock gets reset everytime it encounters document.load() and so the event will get fired continuously Please clarify this doubt. Thanks in advance Azaz Hi, Thanks for the reply. But the behaviour in MS simulator is different. It does not reset the "page" cloc ...Show All

• Visual C++ Using C++/CLI to develop web apps

  Is it possible to develop web applications using VC++ (C++/CLI) in Visual Studio 2005 Standard/Professional Editions I would guess that the answer is 'yes', but I would like to confirm. I checked out the Web Developer Express Edition, but it only includes VC#/VB. I am looking for a way to develop web apps using VC++ (C++/CLI). Thanks, Kumar Initially, it is going to be a fairly simple application: Sort of a calculator, where users would enter certain parameters and then click a button to get an answer. There may be a need for accessing a database. The second application will be a more complicated modeling/analysis engine where users would input quite a lot of information and run some complicated ...Show All

• SQL Server SQL script nvarchar error

  Hi, Not sure if this is the correct forum as it relates to both SQL Express and VB Express Can you help with this please: Using SQL Server Management Studio Express I can write the following SQL script which allows me to search the description column for data that contains the word "display".

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Coordinate system and matrix inconsitencies

  I still don't understand the intent of not using DirectX's left handed coordinate system. I thought it made sence at first, since OpenGL uses a right handed coordinate system.It would open up for easier porting of OpenGL code and interop integration with OpenGL libraries. Now I would prefer to have things the same way as DirectX so that I can easily use libraries and code from DirectX, but that's me. I can still say that all is good and a right handed system is just fine. But then I notice that matrices in XNA use row major representation, just like DirectX and not like OpenGL's column major matrices. Now it is only a matter of the order you multiply your matrices in and it really doesn't matter which one you use as long as you know whi ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions full screen media player

  Is there a code to make windows media player go into full screen apart from right clicking on the player What i want to do is have a button that makes the player go into full screen is it possible is this for the embedded WMP (in other words, added the COM component in your project) if so, there is a command in the object to make it full screen, you would have to read the docs for that. I think its: theWMPObject .fullscreen = true to make it full screen. The "theWMPObject" is the object of WMP you added in your application (embedded in it) ...Show All

• Visual Basic Ideas for a Program to Write?

  Hi, Has anyone got any ideas of a VB Program that would be fairly easy for me to write. I'm new to programming and I want to get into it with an easy program instead of getting board on a hard one. Thanks i suppose the best place to start, to understand the language and get a general feel, is with some file IO problem. so possibly start writing a program that outputs to a file (either a direct path or a UNC address [F:\, \\servername\share]). once you are comfortable with that then move on to possibly reading from a Database and outputing that to a file. see what you can find to do with that, generally IO is a good place to start so you can get a feel for the environment. ...Show All

• Smart Device Development Embedded Visual C++ using Visual Studio 2005 running on VISTA RC1: Linker errors

  I'm using Visual Studio 2005 running on VISTA RC1 to create a simple Smart Device application. *using Embedded Visual C++(Windows CE and Platform Builder are both installed) *to access the RIL(Radio Interface Layer) of WinCE. The target device is a PPC phone (HTC with an OMAP ARM processor). I have an eVC++ source program, the RIL.h and RilClass.h headers, and Ril.lib(to import the ril functions from the ril.dll) When I 'build solution' I'm getting a ton of unresolved external symbols. I suspect that I have not sucessfully included the ril.lib into the build process, and that that is causing the unresolved externs: 'error LNK2019' and 'error LNK2001'. How do I specify that the .lib is to be used when linking my eVc++ pr ...Show All
