Visual C++ error LNK2001
Hi, (I saw the post on same subject but it seems to be a little different. so I'll use some word from that post!) There is a project earlier written in VC++ 6.0. I opened the same project in VS. NET 2005 and I am trying to compile. The code compiles properly (with couple of warnings) but while linking I am getting unresolved external symbol errors like this: The linker seems to have problem with seeing .obj from files in program (which are in the debug directory). It doesn't seem that the /Zl switch or the /NODEFAULTLIB are on. 1>Linking... 1>Utm.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _RTC_Shutdown 1>Zone.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _RTC_Shutdown 1>Zones.obj ...Show All

Windows Forms Tooltips Cut Off
Has anyone experienced balloon style tooltips (IsBalloon) being cut off Many of my tooltips in my application have the last few characters cut off by the end of the balloon. It looks as if they are miscalculating the length of the text. Is there anything that can be done Andrew, Unfortunately, it's nothing as simple as that. The control is trying to draw the characters, they are just cut off by the edge of the tooltip. When displayed in a non-ballooon style, they display fine. In fact, I'm looking at one that is cut off right now that has less than 100 chars. Most of my tooltips don't have this problem, but some do - and some of these are short, and some are long. I have many multi-line tooltips that have many many characters and ...Show All
Windows Forms Inconsistency in System.Drawing.Color?
I had a subtle bug in my code that boiled down to the fact I thought Color.Green has 255 as its green component value. It turns out that it has 128. Isnt that counter-intuitive Red is (255,0,0), blue is (0,0,255) but green is (0,128,0) For a real green it turns out that Color.Lime is the correct color to use. Can anyone explain why this is the case thanks, Jens-Christian The human eye is very sensitive to the wavelength of hues of green. Full intensity green (0, 255, 0) looks very bright. So bright that it deserves a name other than "Green". It is quite ugly... ...Show All
Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Vertex Animation help
Hi, I'd like to do some simple vertex animation on a model using a vertex shader, but I'm having an extremely difficult and frustrating time figuring this out. I've been looking at the content pipeline documentation, I've found the tutorial about the BBox processor and done that a couple times, I've written a C# converter for a custom mesh format I have to X and still I can't work out how to accomplish this. I guess conceptually I understand how the content pipeline works. I ran the X processor DLL that ships with XNA through reflector and just about had a nervous breakdown looking at all the classes in there. I write geometry exporters, importers, and deformers for Maya at my day job, so I like to think I should be able to do this, ...Show All

Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Entity Framework & Entity Attribute Value (EAV) Models
What I've seen so far comming with the next release of ADO.NET and the Entity Framework is absolutely amazing; you efforts will be much appreciated! I do have one question though which relates to dynamic entity attributes that can be defined at runtime; more specifically something known (and often frowned upon) as Entity Attribute Value (EAV) Models. I realize there are contrary views on the validity of this model in a relational space and hope to avoid "good or bad" discussions in the thread ;-) Specifically, it has been demonstrated how we can perform logical/conceptual mapping and in turn generate logical objects that map to our entity objects. How will we map entity attributes that are unknown at mapping/compile time Will the ...Show All
Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Modifying basicHTTPBinding on Client side
Hi Community, Has someone tried modifying the basicHTTPBinding on the client side Is it possible or I am thinking something non-standard thing What I think there should be a way to inherit and override what is already provided in basicHTTPBinding or in any other out of box binding. For example in the following code I am changing the IncludeTimeStamp to false. This may be the bad example in which the channels on the service side will not match. But idea is, what if the server side code is not WCF service. If the IncludeTimeStamp flag is not required on the server side but everything from basicHTTPBinding is required. using ( GetAddressClient proxy = new GetAddressClient ( "GetAddress" )) { try ...Show All
