• Visual Studio Team System Solution Explorer and Source Control Explorer out of sync

  Hello! There are occassions where my Solution explorer and Source control explorer are out of syn no matter how many times I get the latest version or refresh on the solution. This happens randomly and no steps to reproduce. I ultimately end up closing and reopening VS 2005. Many other developers have also been complaining about the same. Please assist! For the File->Source Control->Refresh Status or the Refresh in the Pending Changes toolwindow to correct the status and glyph for Common1, you will need to make sure that either the Common1 project node or the solution node is selected in Solution Explorer. If the App1 (or App2) node is selected, then the Refresh will only update the App1 ...Show All

• SQL Server Connecting to Oracle on 64-bit (x64) machine

  Hi, Has anyone received the following error when trying to create a connection to an Oracle database using SSIS installed on a 64-bit (x64) machine "Test connection failed because of an error in initializing provider. ORA-06413: Connection not open" The reason this is funny to me is because I have the same Oracle/SSIS setup on a 32-bit (x86) machine and I can connect successfully. On both machines I have SSIS RTM, Oracle 9.2 and using the Microsoft Ole Db Provider for Oracle. Thanks, - Joel Can you elaborate on Solution 2 Did you just rename the root 32-bit path and change the PATH in Environment variables Also, on install there is no way to configure the directory for 32 bit components Is there a ...Show All

• Visual Studio Unable to Debug ASP.NET VS2005 - Trust relationship between this workstation error

  I just created my first VS.Net 2005 ASP.Net web site. If I attempt to run the project in debug mode, I get presented with an error message "Trust relationship between this workstation and the primary domain failed." I can start without debugging and the page loads up. I can use IE to go to localhost/app/page and it comes up fine. I've tried setting all kinds of security related settings on the web site in IIS manager, explorer, etc., however, have only succeeded in making the problem worse in some cases,i.e. you don't have permission to view this page.

• Visual Studio More custom code questions

  I've been through Brian Likes's custom code blog entries and I can get code to work but only the easiest of examples. I'm using a local report rather than SQL reporting services so I think that a custom assembly might be easier in my case, and hopefully the deployment code (likely ClickOnce) will understand that there is a referenced assembly. But using a custom assembly or even just local code, I can get Hello World to work but I can't figure out how to pass the report variables such as Field!MyPerson.Value to the code in order to do anything useful. If anyone has a suggestion as the the passing mechanism I would greatly appreciate an example. I'm getting a compile error about an instance requiring an object reference. I declared my f ...Show All

• SQL Server Trouble installing sql express

  Hi, I was trying to install visual studio 2005 and as part of it I wanted to install sql express as well. It installed the rest okay but not the sql express. Going through the log file I figured out that there was some incompatible beta version installed and hence had to be removed. In the log file I got the following error messages.

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Media Element Formats and Player

  My question relates to the video format and media player in WPF. In previous frameworks, while mostly used, Direct3D was used to play videos in specific formats such as AVI or WMV. While this may work in the new framework, it is under my impression that the WPF Media element only works with WMV. Plus, in order to play the media element itself the user must have windows media player installed in order to play (version 10 or 11). When I have used the Media element it only sometimes works while loading wmv files without any other codecs necessary. Is this an issue with WPF in general, or am I have I missed something here - Thomas I recently found a wiki entry on the technology behind media features of WPF and Vista in general. A lot ...Show All

• .NET Development Any CPU and Managed C++

  I have a C# smart client built using “Any CPU”, the application references a managed C++ assembly that I’ve compiled into both x86 and x64 dlls. Is there any way to redirect the assembly loader to load the correct dll given the client’s platform (apart from manually) Is there any way to configure ClickOnce to deploy the correct dll thanks, rich When you say “ In general the entry points bittness should match all of its dependent assemblies” are you saying that I can safely cast the 64 and 32 bit instances to their common class type Is there anything I should be looking out for if I do this (Some of my objects are fairly big) ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System tf.exe through iis

  Hi I'm trying to make a simple application that builds and deploys my solution through a web page. My approach has been to make a nant script that runs tf.exe a number of times and to run this nant script from the web page (this might seem strange, but it was chosen simplify maintenance). The Web page runs in a separate application pool (Windows 2003) having the identity of the user I'm using all automated tasks from. The application works fine up until I'm running the "tf get c:\deploy /recurive" where it complains about "Unable to determine the workspace". Before this line I have run several tf commands on the server, successfully, but none of them requires workspace. I have checked: - that the user is correct by p ...Show All
