• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) How to get my nodeID?

  How to get my nodeID without customer resolver CreateHost... OpenHost... CreateChannel... PeerNode pn = m_Channel.GetProperty<PeerNode>(); String str = pn.InnerNode.NodeId;// I want to get my nodeID here! compile error CS0117: 'System.ServiceModel.PeerNode' does not contain a definition for 'InnerNode' unser debugmode, through "QuickWindow" I can find pn.InnerNode.NodeId Please help! Any other way ok, thank you! I don't know if it's the safest way, but I noticed that if you call pn.ToString() you'll get the nodeID (you'll need to do some simple parsing). InnerNode is not a public property of PeerNode. ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Weird backface glitch

  I'm not sure what's going on here; I wouldn't be surprised if it's just my video card. But has anyone seen this before cellphone_rendering_bugs.jpg That's a series of screenshots I took as the model rotated... the original model in Maya has all its normals facing the right way. I exported it as an FBX200611 model. I'm (unfortunately) using a Compaq Presario with an NVIDIA GeForce 6150 LE video card. I thought it might have been a matter of the near/far draw limits being too far apart and the Z buffer lacking the precision to draw this relatively small area properly, but I turned it down to 1.0 -> 100.0 and it still happens. Any thoughts I'm using code from a tutorial... this is all pretty new to me, b ...Show All

• SQL Server SQL SSRS 2005 SP2

  Just wondered if anyone has an update on when SP2 for SSRS2005 is likely to be released. Have seen a post which suggests CTP1 is already out there. Is this the case, and if so is there any latest hot off the press news as to when can we get hold of it. It may have been concerning SSRS2000 though, as I don't think it was specific enough. ...Show All

• Visual Basic To make characters in the text of TextBox ReadOnly.

  Hi All !! I am new to VB.NET... I want to make the characters in the text of TextBox control read only... That is, to make those characters should not be replaced by any other character, or can not be editable... So is there any property or method that can be implemented to the charactres/text(string) of textbox's text Responses are welcome Thanks, Prodigy201 I came across a similar need with a text box. I used the keyPress event to ignore any keystrokes that I didn't want. To keep the format on the text box I used the textChanged event. Just some suggestions. Johnny ...Show All

• Architecture MOSS2007 used as an application platform?!?

  Hi. I've been doing a fair bit of work with two large clients using SharePoint. The scenario is rather typical - SharePoint must host applications that accesses network-based resources such as databases, directory services and files. Some of the application services must be exposed as web services so that they can be consumed by other applications, devices and services. So pretty standard enterprise app stuff. In both cases senior architects and SharePoint architects and developers suggest using SharePoint exclusively. As an example, lets say an app needs to capture customer data, and customer orders. I'm being told that customer and order information should be stored as lists, that web parts should be created to host workflows ...Show All

• SQL Server Truncation error when importing from ODBC to flat file

  I am having problems reading from and ODBC conncetion from Oracle RDB into SSIS. I am using a DataReader source which uses a ADO.NET odbc connection to an oracle RDB database. I am having that write to a flat file. When I read integers from the source, it works just fine. When I read character data (char(48) for example), it gives me trucation errors.

• SQL Server Blocked transaction problem

  Hello, I am trying to execute next query, but when doing it, TABLE1 locks and it does not finish. SERVER2 is a linked server. BEGIN TRAN INSERT INTO TABLE1 SELECT * FROM SERVER2.DATABASE2.DBO.TABLE2 WHERE TAB_F1 IS NULL COMMIT TRAN I have same configuration in other 2 computers and it works ok. What is the problem Thank you!! This should not lock your transaction. But depending on the server you are using it can be that all data will retrieved from the linked server first to do a filter on the calling server. That will take more time than just doing the Select on the remote server. HTH, Jens K. Suessmeyer. --- http://www.sqlserver2005.de --- ...Show All
