• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Managed -> Unmanaged Interop

  Hello to the XNA team! Looks like some pretty awesome work you've got done here guys! Me and my colleague are professional game developers considering writing "Yet Another 3D Game Engine(tm)" for XNA. So I have two questions for the team: 1.) Is there any chance of getting a preview of XNA before december so we can start developing immediately 2.) It would be nice if we could do a bit of interop between XNA, managed C++ and unmanaged C++. What are the chances of us being able to achieve this Thanks in advance! To clarify: on Windows you can do interop from XNA to any native code you like, just like any regular CLR app. On Xbox there is no native interop at all. We run the Xbox CLR in a sa ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions install error

  Downloaded & installed OK on desktop.  On Laptop, still getting the Windows Installer 3.1 error.  The installation stops with the error message to send or not to send to Microsoft.  On the download to desktop, the Windows Installer 3.1 wasn't one of the items being installed.  However, when I did the install to the laptop, it was in the list of items it would install.  Both systems xp pro sp2. Any help You know, I'm very unhappy with Microsoft about this whole issue. I've run into it several times. I run a computer repair shop and we routinely have to do a WinXP repair. It seems that almost every time we do this, it triggers this MSI install problem. Doing a WinXP repair should NOT force a complet ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Using variables in scripts

  Hello, I've been reading Gert's post about using variables in scripts ( http://blogs.msdn.com/gertd/archive/2007/01/08/variables-to-the-rescue.aspx ) and have been trying it out. I don't think it works. Here's the steps I followed: Created a new project Imported a schema Built the project [it was successful] Added a new blank script to the Post-Deployment folder Edited Script.PostDeployment to include my new (still blank) script Built the project again (still successful) Added the following line to my new script: :setvar drive "C:" Built the project again This time the build failed with the error: Error TSD164: Syntax checking failed : Incorrect syntax near :.

• .NET Development How to deal with multiple tables and dataAdapter

  I am working on an application where there are around 8 related tables. I am using a dataAdapter for filling the dataset with all these tables. I am doing the folowing: SqlCommand cmd1 =new SqlCommand(" Select * from table1"); SqlDataAdapter sda = new sda(cmd1); try { conn.Open(); sda.Fill(ds,"table1"); cmd1. CommandText = "Select * from table2" ; sda.SelectCommand = cmd1; sda.Fill(ds,"table2"); conn.Close(); } In this approach, when I do some update on the table1 then there will be errors because the adapter's select command is pointing to table1. I then need to be cautious to set the adapter's select command before doing any update to a specific table. Is this a good aprr ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Rendering glitch

  I know im just overlooking something, but I spend so much time screwing around with the parsers, my brain has gone to mush! Please help. Ive written an ASE parser to work with the Mech Commander2 data. Thing is, although the vertices are exactly as from the ASE file, the rendering results sure arent! This is a snippet of the ASE from a cube sample.

• Windows Forms ErrorProvider & its tooltip

  I'm using .Net framework 2.0.50727. As I know, after the ErrorProvider detects an error, it will display a tooltip once the mouse moves to the 'X' position. Most of the time it is correct, but sometimes it seems that the tooltip message got lost, and no tooltip showed up. And this happens like random. It really confuses me. Could anyone tell me why Tooltips don't show forever, they disappear after a certain amount of time and don't reappear unless another tooltip is shown. The ErrorProvider does not provide access to the ToolTip associated with it (it's separate from the parent form) so you can't change any of the timings of it's tooltip. ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) StatusBar / Separator display question

  I've been playing around with StatusBar and Separator. I'm confused as to why I'm only getting a single pixel as the separator. I would think I should be getting a thin vertical line as the size of the control is being specified as being 1 unit wide, and 15 units high. My XAML statement for the separator is: <StatusBar> ... <StatusBarItem> <Separator Background="Blue" Width="1" Height="15" /> </StatusBarItem> ... <StatusBar> If I specify a larger number than 15 for the height, the height of the status bar increases, but I still only get a single pixel displaying. If I increase the value of Width, interesting enough, I do get a hortizontal lin ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Is it safe to delete these files ?

  Is it safe to delete the files that are in the bin\Debug and bin\Release folders Yes. You can safely delete them. If you rebuild they are going to be recreated. I usually delete them if I'm sending the source to somebody else. Reduces space and they are not required, if the other party has the compiler to recompile the source. ...Show All

• .NET Development IPC Remoting with a Browser Helper Object (BHO)

  Hi. I'm trying to use .NET remoting to communicate between a standalone executable and a BHO I'm writing. I'm doing this all under a beta of Vista, so that may be causing my issues, not sure. Previously I did the communication entirely in the BHO, and that worked fine. As it is now, if I run both the executable and IE using the vista "Run as Administrator" option, it works fine. However, if I only run one (either one) or neither as administrator, I get a RemotingException when trying to call a remote method. I'm sure it's some sort of security configuration setting, but I've tried about every solution I could find on the web and can't get it to work. Here is some of the code...
