• Software Development for Windows Vista How to obtain IDiscRecorder2Ex interface?

  I'm using code such as the following to obtain an IDiscRecorder2 interface: IDiscRecorder2* pIDiscRecorder2; CoCreateInstance(CLSID_MsftDiscRecorder2, NULL, CLSCTX_LOCAL_SERVER, IID_IDiscRecorder2, (void**)&pIDiscRecorder2); Presumably, to obtain an IDiscRecorder2Ex interface, I would substitute CLSID_MsftDiscRecorder2Ex and IID_IDiscRecorder2Ex. This does not compile, as CLSID_MsftDiscRecorder2Ex is undefined (using SDK for July TCP). I have been able to obtain an IDiscRecorder2Ex interface pointer via QueryInterface off the pIDiscRecorder2 above. Is this an implementation artifact, or is this the intended procedure Also, what is the recommended context to create IMAPI2 objects Both CLS ...Show All

• SQL Server rowmodctr & SMO.

  From MSDN pg for sp_updatestats: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms173804.aspx '... In SQL Server 2005, sp_updatestats updates only those statistics that require updating based on the rowmodctr information in the sys.sysindexes compatibility view; therefore, preventing unnecessary updates of unchanged items ...' I was hoping that somewhere in the SMO namespace I would find a way to programmatically obtain rowmodctr info., (in order to determine when stats need updating), but I failed to find any method or property within the stats-related classes through which I could do this. If I've missed something, or there is another way to programmatically obtain the same, then any suggestions/comments would be gratefully received. ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Computer communicating with myBrowser

  Hello, I have created a web browser and just having 1 problem. I have set my browser up in the registry as the default browser and that works great. You click on a link on your desktop or wherever on your computer and it opens up myBrowser not IE, but my problem is that when it opens up myBrowser it just loads the homepage and no the webpage of the link/shortcut that the user clicked, so somewhere in my code, it is not accepting the webpage url request from the computer. Does anyone have an idea why this is not happening. myBrowser Class is listed as public also. I'm just trying to get my Browser to accept the website address and to navigate to it when the user clicks a link or shortcut on there computer system. I appreciate anyones help o ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) [Serious BUG] WPF doesn't invalidate / paint correctly

  I am building some kind of card game. One can move cards (Card class, depicted with a CardControl which is a user control, essentialy an image) over a table (Basically a Canvas, the Top and Left properties are bound to some X, Y properties on the Card class). Everything was working perfectly until I tried something new: I ran two instances of my application (so that I could test my networking code). And suddenly, with the two instances opened, when I move cards around sometimes the old position of the card becomes black. The background of the table doesn't repaint correctly. If WPF uses dirty rectangle internally, it looks like it isn't invalidating correctly, or maybe the painting is buggy, I don't know. What is very strange, is that I ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Programming against MSSCCI provider

  We have a VB6, in-house developed process managment / QA tool which governs our development lifecycle. This tool integrates with VSS via the SourceSafe type library and we will continue to use this tool in the medium term once we migrate to TFS. We were planning to migrate the product simply to the MSSCCI provider - thus preventing major rework, but it doesn't seem to have a published interface to develop against. Am I right in assuming that it is currently purely for integration with VSS familiar IDEs and not for programming against Are there any plans to open the interface or will we need to code against the new TFS interfaces Cheers Dan Hi I am trying to do something similar, create ...Show All

• Visual Studio files LOST after error message in VS2005

  I was using the Sourcesafe 2005 within VS2005 (plug-in). One day, an message came up saying there was an error and I needed to contact my Sourcesafe administrator. It was a plain and simple dialog box without any options expect "OK" and "Cancel" The next thing I know all my checked out files were replaced by original files before they were checked out! Basically I had lost everything I did up to that point! Fortunately, I was able to recover the files from backup. But can anybody tell me why this happened so I can prevent next time Thanks! Chirag Error messages in SourceSafe that tell you to contact the administrator appear because of database corruption. And there is an informationa ...Show All

• Smart Device Development CSD GSM communication...

  Hi! Could someone give me point about CSD GSM communication What is done: I have connected 2 Qtek S100 through data-call: - use TAPI - get “connected” - take handle to COMM - init COMM: 9600/ e.t. - successfully transfer data But several strange things I have: average transfer rate – channel capacity - for transparent mode (S100 allows to manipulate transparent/non-transparent mode) is 6.4k bit/sec. – and this is write to COMM. speed! i.e. transferring side shows this speed by simple WriteFile() operation for chunk of data for example 64k bytes. Some times I receive corrupted data – but it’s ok for me. – transfer rate is strange! average tran ...Show All

• Gadgets Silently running an external program from a gadget

  Is there any way to run a program silently from a gadget and collect its output The only way I know of for running a porgram is System.Shell.execute, but this flashes the cmd window quickly (this is a CLI exe) and I don't see a way to get the output of the program. I am currently accomplishing the same thing by using Wscript and objShell.Run, sending the output to a text file, and then reading the text file. Just wondering if there is a better way. Does jscript allow you to launch a program silently Try this var WshShell = new ActiveXObject("WScript.Shell"); var exec = WshShell.Exec(System.Gadget.path + " \\ myapp.exe"); var outputData = exec.StdOut.ReadAll(); i hope this hel ...Show All
