• Visual Studio Express Editions Logic problem

  This problem appears to be a logic problem rather then a syntax one. Basically I have a heap of images and I want to display 3 per row. My problem is atm it is only displaying 2 on the first row and then 1 per row after that. Here is my code: Private Sub maps_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load loadworldMaps() interval = 0 setting = "maps" id = "worldMaps" y = 20 x = 10 width = 160 height = 110 For count = 0 To 59 interval = interval + 1 worldMapsDisplayArray(count) = New worldMaps(badgesArray(count).mapImage, worldMapsArray(count).name, worldMapsArray(count).mapInfo, x, y, width, height, count, "worldMaps", setting, interv ...Show All

• SQL Server Foreach endless loop

  I'm having a problem where I'm using a Execute SQL Task to retrieve a dataset and storing that in an object variable. Then on success of that execute sql task I use a foreach loop task to go through the dataset and do 2 tasks inside the foreach loop. When I execute this package I have ~12 records in the dataset however when I get to the foreach loop in the 2nd iteration it keeps repeating it. It acts like it is stuck on the second record (tuple) and never goes on. I'm using an ForEach ADO Enumerator in the foreach. I've even set a breakpoint on each iteration and no task fails in side the foreach loop. I'm completely perplexed why it will iterate to the 2nd record but get stuck there in an endless loop. I've tried this on 2 different compu ...Show All

• Visual C++ Debugging release version in VS2005

  I am debugging a complicated piece of software which takes quite a long time to run until it reaches the point which I have to investigate. Running debug version from debugger is too slow as it takes up to few hours to run until I get it to the point of the problem. I tried to compile the release version and run it from the debugger. Interestingly I can only see some variables (usually local function ones) in the watch window. The "this" variable for some reason is always shown as NULL. I also can not see values of variables of functions that are deeper in the stack. And finally my debug visualizers do not work. Project properties of debug and release versions seem to be almost the same (obviously _DEBUG directive is missing in r ...Show All

• Community Chat your computer is ready to compute

  as many know when you don't have the latest CPU you'll have to wait when your computer is ready to compute. also many handicapped persons, which area doesn't matter, are waiting when their pc is ready to compute. all other persons watch the LED of their HD, when it goes out. and watch the mousepointer becomes to standstill. whatever, the case is, you'll have to WAIT..... why don't you make a neat little program that can be implemented in any MS OS, Vista included, that tells you by sound and vision: YOUR COMPUTER IS READY TO COMPUTE. the idea is seen on Startrek serials which were made by the fabulous Gene Roddenberry. the computer on board of the Enterprise told their crew members that "she" was "rea ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Introducing: ADO.NET Entity Framework Services

  Greetings, Just wanted to let people know about a little project I've put some time into, that has served as both a primer course for EF and Web Services (since I really didn't know either of both when I started!).  I call it ADO.NET Entity Framework Services, and it's meant to assist with applications developed with web service boundaries. You can find this project here: http://codeplex.com/entityservices This project helps developers to: 1) Create a "fascade assembly" based on a current EF-empowered assembly. 2) Load up an entity fascade based on Load Plans defined in configuration.  This fascade can then be sent over the wire to a remote destination. 3) Hydrate an entity object from an incoming fascad ...Show All

• SQL Server Problems after service window

  This is unbelevable.. I've been struggeling a bit with getting distributed transactions to work, but yesterday I finally got it all working. A couple of hours later (yesterday evening) there was a service window in the organisation and a couple of hotfixes etc was installed in the server (Win2k3). This morning when I tried to launch the job (an SSIS package) I get the error message "Unable to load package". If I run the package as a cmd program I get a permission denied error. The package is stored in SSIS package store (MSDB\...\). I have added the account running the job-step in the local administrators group and also made it sys_admin of the SQL-database, but with the same result (package could not be loaded). I have ...Show All

• Visual Studio Remote debugging - timeout period exceeded

  I'm having trouble getting remote debugging working between two machines that aren't in the same domain. Local machine is XP with VS2005. The machine is in a domain, and so is the user. Remote machine EDMDEMO is Win2K in a workgroup. The remote debugging monitor is running interactively in a local account. Local userids exist on both machines to match the domain user id, and all 3 passwords match. I can browse the shares of the machines without any problems. The local can connect to the remote machine, and it shows up in the remote debugging monitor as "EDMDEMO\username"connected. This waits for about a minute then returns the error (on the host): --------------------------- Microsoft Visual Studio ------------ ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. RenderTarget2D and DeviceReset

  I'm using a RenderTarget2D to dynamically create a background for my game. In the documentation I see that a RenderTarget2D must be recreated when the device is reset (a GraphicsDeviceManager.DeviceReset event). But how do I recreate it If I run the code that draws (for example) random stars on my background, they will not be in the same positions. I don't want to keep a list of all the starts I drew. How can I keep a fast backup of the RenderTarget2D that I can use to recreate it after a device reset I'd rather use some kind of ResourceManagementMode.Automatic or ResourcePool.Managed, but I don't see how to set that for a RenderTarget2D. RenderTarget2D has a ResourceManagementMode property, but it's read only. ...Show All
