• Software Development for Windows Vista Where can I host the runtime in a SOA based environment?

  Hello everybody, I am planning to use Listen, Delay and event-based Activities in a sequential workflow like the one in the hands on labs WF HOLD01. In this case the manager can approve the report, otherwise it will be escalated if a certain time-limit is exceeded... Now my question, how and where can I host the runtime if my architecture consists of web services (or respectively wcf in aspnetcompatibility mode) and the workflows take several days So far I hosted the runtime in an Application variable and after each service request I saved the instances through the manualworkflowscheduler service in the database, but now I want to add a LISTEN Activity and inside a DELAY Activity which executes after 3 days, so I must not save th ...Show All

• .NET Development DataSet.Copy problem

  Hi! I have a problem with a DataTable that has a DataColumn like this: DataColumn id = new DataColumn ( "Id" , typeof ( SqlInt64 )); id.AutoIncrementSeed = 0; id.AutoIncrement = true ; id.AutoIncrementStep = 1; id.ReadOnly = true ; The DataTable has some rows (id=0, 1, 2, etc.) and I want to make a copy of the DataSet.

• Visual Studio Team System Can "Show Project Portal" be redirected to another URL?

  I'm currently on-site with the second customer who has asked me this, so I'm asking the community: Is there a way to force the "Show Project Portal" right click menu to redirect to another URL This particular customer already has extensive Sharepoint portals in place for many of the projects they'll (hopefully) be importing into Team System. We'd like the "Show Project Portal" menu to redirect them to the existing Sharepoint site instead of the new, empty Sharepoint portal Team System creates. Seems easy enough, if there was a way to edit that URL.. is there Jeff, Does this not help http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/teamsystem/reference/technotes/tfs/conf_for_remote_ss.aspx <HACK& ...Show All

• SQL Server using variable value as calling parameter

  I want to know why this code does not work in a query. The table 'iDay_INTRAD' exists and is detected if I use a statement exec sp_tables iDay_INTRAD . This statement returns one row. The code below returns no rows. Apparently the query is looking for table '@p1' not the value of this variable. Is it possible to do what I want to do in SQL Server DECLARE @p1 varchar (10) DECLARE @p2 varchar(10) SET @p1 = 'iDay_' SET @p2 = 'INTRAD' SET @p1 = @p1 + @p2 exec sp_tables @p1 Thanks Np ;-) HTH, Jens K.

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Computed fields within database

  Hello, is there a way to allow access to Computed fields within the database. The generated mapping creates a getter and a setter for the database computed field. However updates against the field will fail. Thanks in advance, Thomas The CTP bits do not support mapping to pure computed columns, i.e. where a setter will not be generated at all. We are aware of that requirement though. What is supported in these CTP bits is mapping to server-generated columns, e.g. columns populated by triggers on insert and/or update. You have three options: < Schema> < EntityType> < Property StoreGeneratedPattern = edm:StoreGeneratedPatternEnum ...Show All
