• Smart Device Development How to read an XML file which is in the web server?

  Can anyone pls teach me how to read an XML file which is returned from a jsp application(e.g. http://192.202.51.61/test/App1.jsp &myID=001 ) I have been searching for long. I found that if my application is developed as a computer application, it works fine. But if I copy and paste the code into a smartphone application, it does not work.... It returns timeout error.... Can anyone tell me how to do this Alex Feinman wrote: XmlDocument has no problem loading xml from a stream.

• Windows Live Developer Forums FF Polyline ReArraging?

  I am having very strange behaviour in FF which seems to take the LeftTop edge of the last Poly I add and reArrange all of my other Polys' starting at that LeftTop edge, strangley keeping their proper shape...in certain cases even cropping the regions. Live Example: http://mssa.coba.usf.edu/mapControl/ Use IE to see proper result first, then watch it go nuts in FF. I'd paste the source, but the pages are all ASPX and ASCX - you all can see a good "glued" version of the code being delivered to your browser. Is there something I need to do differently, maybe do it on separete layers or what Yep, this is a known issue and a bug has been filed about it.

• Windows Forms How can I drag my form? Can I multiply fractions?

  Hello, I noticed I can make the form border to none and get rid of that boring titlebar. Is there anyway I can make a bar to go on the left side that will drag the whole form when a user clicks it. Also is there a way to multiply, add, subtract, and devide fractions I want to be able to do the code below with fractions and have it come out as result as a fraction(not a decimal): public void myMathProblem() { int one 5; int two 6; int Result; string result; //Is there any way to do this with fractions but not turn them into decimals and have //Result to come out as a fraction anserw Result = one + two; result = Result.ToString(); label1.Text = result; } Thanks Hi As for y ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System When should a branch become a new Project?

  Hi I'm used to version control tools where most branches are under one "project". Somewhere I think I saw some documentation that for new versions of an application (v1 versus v2) creating a new TFS Project was suggested. Are there TFS-specific technical reasons where a new Project is really warranted for a branch (Other than the obvious reasons where there are so many technology differences or source tree layout differences etc etc that you want to leave the old stuff behind.) Thanks, Frappe Here's one document on the subject: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms242894(VS.80).aspx My rule of thumb is that you need a new Team Project iff you need to change you ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Directx AudioVideoPlayback bugs

  .Net 2.0 C# VS2005 SQL Server 2005 I am developing a Windows Forms training application using numerous avi files and AudioVideoPlayback.Video to play them. The file names are stored in a SS2K5 database and the files themselves are encrypted using System.Security.Cryptology. I decrypt the file into a temporary file and play that file. The problem I have is that I cannot delete the file until the application exits. I have tried Video.Dispose() and it doesn't release the file lock. The player is an MDI child form.

• Visual Studio Protected method of sealed classes appear in the Index

  Try generating documentation for the following code: using System; u sing System.Collections.Generic; using System.Text; namespace SandCastleTest { public class BaseTest { protected virtual void Help() { } } public sealed class Test : BaseTest { protected override void Help() { } } } Generate documentation for it using the Sandcastle Aug CTP (HtmlHelp1x).

It correctly doesn't appear as a child of the Test-class as this class is sealed. If you then click on Test Class in the Contents-tab, you'll get a list of all the members of this class. ...Show All
