• SQL Server RS 2005 and Custom Code

  Hi there I've added quite a bit of custom code to my RS 2003 reports. However, I am having no joy with duplicating the process in 2005. My functions are created (as public functions) and as long as I don't try to reference them in the report everything runs smoothly. However, when I do try to reference a function in an expression using the syntax code.MyFunction (), it does not recognise the function. Many Thanks Hi Teo Thanks for the response. Yes. After much frustration and eventually simply running the "faulty" code I have discovered that RS will simply not pick up Code.<Insert Function Name Here> , and it will show it as being incorrect. Simly ignore and life is a scream ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Can I access console output while a unit test is running?

  The code I'm testing outputs to the console. When my unit tests complete, I can check the details for a test (in VS IDE) and see the console output. Is there any way to get this output while a test is in progress Thanks...Rick Yes, I do have other hooks that I can use for verification, but I'd also like to verify the console output.

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Where do you set SOAP Encodings in WCF web service ...

  In standard ASMX Web Services you could set the SOAP Encodings to doc-literal, doc-literal wrapped, and others. Where do you set this SOAP Encoding in WCF Services I've not been successful in locating this in the documentation. Thanks. Hi Madhu, I checked out the sample. I'm trying to get the encoding to be doc-literal . It seems that setting the following attributes on the service should do the trick: [ ServiceContract (), XmlSerializerFormat (Style = OperationFormatStyle .Document, Use = OperationFormatUse .Literal)] However, the encoding of the message is still set to doc-literal wrapped which is the default. So am I misreading something or is there some other knob I need to tweak ...Show All

• .NET Development specifying custom tracelistener needs strong assembly name

  I've build a trace listener that traces out message to a rotating log file. The thing works fine. The deployment packages nicely registers it in the GAC so that I can reuse it wherever I like. What I would like to do is add it to the <system.diagnostics> section of for instance an simple application. The problem I have is that I have to specify a strong assembly name. like: < add name ="testGateway" type ="UnitedMobile.Diagnostics.LoggingTraceListener,UnitedMobile.Diagnostics.LoggingTraceListener, Version=1.0.1.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=e861178d28f74af2" initializeData ="c:\log\Refund\{0:yyyyMMddHH}.log;1" /> For for instance the System.Diagnostics it is necesary to only specify the weak name: < ad ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Inactivity Default value

  I've been testing for few days with the inactivityTimeout and receiveTimeout. In my WCF app, I use WSHttpBinding and WSDualHttpBinding. No matter what I set the values of inactivityTimeout and receiveTimeout to be, I get the CommunicationObjectFaultedException. My application needs to be kept alive for Infinite but that didn't seem to work so I changed to 20 minutes and still the timeout is set to 10min. What else do I need to change Description: Failed to stop service. System.ServiceModel.CommunicationObjectFaultedException: The communication object, System.ServiceModel.Channels.ServiceChannel, cannot be used for communication because it is in the Faulted state.

• SQL Server Unable to Access HTTP Endpoints from C# application when using Integrated security

  I hope you can help me to solve my issue. I created an endpoint and have an application to consume the methods from endpoint. Every thing work fine when i use the Impersonation with specific user id and password. In other words i am using Authrentication method = windows and Impersonate = true, user id = "[DOMAIN\userid]" password = "password" in web.config. But this is not the way i want to use endpoints in my application. I want to make it work without any user id and password in Impersonate section of web.config. The end points must be accessible to user using their own credentials. By the way i am using Authentication = (Integrated) in Endpoint definition and the same in IIS.

• SQL Server Problems with Roles and sp_helpRoleMember

  I have a database role named gc_stationAdmin. I have a user x who has this role granted him when via Mgmt Studio under Logins. In fact I have 50+ users who have this role. 1) when I execute sp_helpRoleMember I see only 20 users who have this role when I'm expecting to see 50 and user X is not amongst the 20 2) when sp_helpRoleMember is executed AS user X, they only see 1 user with this role (and it's not himself) 3) when I drop user X from Role using sp_dropRoleMember OR using Mgmt Studio under Login Properties, it never drops him according to Mgmt Studio. When I pull up the login properties, that role is still always checked no matter what I do...although he doesn't appear in the sp_helpRoleMember result ever. What is goi ...Show All

• SQL Server Significant bug in SSIS import function

  I have encountered what I consider to be a significant bug when importing Excel spreadsheets using SSIS. If in the first data row a particular column does not contain a value (i.e. it is null) then SSIS assumes that every row has a null value in that column. This disfunctional beahaviour has cost me hours and hours of wasted time loading and debugging data. Hopefully someone from the appropriate area within Microsoft will read this post and get this bug fixed. Gee - I am sorry to have offended you with my post! I am aware that it is a community forum and my hope was to get constructive response from anyone participating in the forum and also hopefully to hear from Microsoft. I believe that they monitor these forums and fro ...Show All
