Visual Studio VC++ 2003 Code Model not returning certain functions - please help!
I am using Visual Studio .NET 2003 and writing an add-in to the IDE. I am writing in C++ and am experiencing difficulties with the following problem: Certain functions are not being returned by the VC code model in it's code elements collection. =============== Here is my understanding of how this all works. The development environment (DTE) is described with a Code Model. This is similar to my previous work where I was working with XML documents described with a Document Object Model (DOM). The Code Model describes structures that are commonly seen in source code. This would be classes, functions, variables, parameters, enumerations, structures, and more. The DOM equivalent would be words, paragraphs, sections, chapters, titles, and more ...Show All
Visual C# In C#, how should I use a VB ocx that is dependent on a win32 dll ?
Hi, I am trying to use a VB ocx control in C#. Internally the ocx control makes use of a C++ dll. I have done the following 1. Registered the ocx 2. Included the component in VS .Net IDE tool bar. But when I try to drag and drop the control I am getting an error "Failed to import the ActiveX control. Please ensure it is registered properly." I am using .Net Visual Studio 2005 Looks like there is some problem in creating the wrapper for the ocx. After drag and drop, under Project->References the wrapper is not available. It simply shows the wrapper's name with a warning icon ( i.e.., the icon used to indicate that the reference is not available or not built). When ActiveX is dependent on another dll should we do something di ...Show All

Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) UpdateObject() / AddObject issues
I just got done reading Danny's excellent article here and I just tried to incorporate that logic into my own ObjectDataSource. When I call db.AddObject(), the entity's ID gets reset to 0. This doesn't seem right at all. :) Is there something I could be overlooking Thanks for any help! (Have I mentioned yet that this is AWESOME STUFF I haven't been this excited about programming in years!) Mike Yeah, that's messy. Our CTP has missing functionality. AddObject assumes you're adding an object to the context to add that object to the database. AddExistingObject (that you need that we don't yet support) assumes you're adding an object to the context that already exists in the database. AddObject (when ClientAutoGener ...Show All

Visual Studio Express Editions Installing Resources
I have a .wav file and .exe file in my resources. When I install my program on other computers it won't play the .wav file and it won't open the .exe. How do I make my install so that it installs my resources with it If it wont open the .exe file then that may account for it not playing the wav file. The exe requires that .net framework be installed on the machine - so simply copying the exe to another machine would result in .exe not working. The best way to get and application to work outside of the development environment is to create a deployment package by publishing the application. The underlying technology is called clickonce deployment and is rather neat as it ensures that required compone ...Show All

Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Animating Billboards Using A Single Texture
I just finished a basic billboard class that is capable of reading in multiple textures and animating. However, I would like to read in a single texture file and be able to simply change texture coordinates to change the appearance of the billboard. Now, I could recreate my VertexBuffer each frame, but that would be a lot of wasted processing. Is there a way to dynamically alter the texture coordinates for VertexBuffer objects each frame Edit: As a bonus question, how do I enable the alpha channels in my textures Right now it shows up white. I am using the BasicEffect. Would I have to write my own effect just for that Seems rather silly but I will if I have to. Edit 2: As bonus question 2, how can I disable antialiasing of my textures I'm ...Show All
