• Visual C# local or remote path

  Hi, how can I determine (inC#) if a path refers to a folder/file on the local machine or on another machine in the network Thanks for your help, Ralph Hi, Yes, its possible. I havnt gave you that info because its a bit lengthy process. So i thought if not required then why one would like to go for unneccessary long process. Any way, for your solution, please use the following code. I have made a sample for you but as per your requirement, you change the methods, return types and the information how its being filled in these methods. For this, you will need to use Management apis (WMI) to get the mapped drives. So add System.Management.dll as reference in your project using "A ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Client callback with a facade

  I need some help with the following design pattern. It is a basic publish/subscribe pattern with a facade. The subcriber is a Wcf windows app. The publisher and the facade are both Wcf services. The subscriber communicates with the facade via Http. The facade forwards the request to the publisher via netMsmq. The publisher processes the request and sends update messages directly to the subscriber (it does not go back via the facade). The publisher continues to push updates to the consumer until told otherwise. My question is, what is the best way to pass a client callback to the publisher In other words a duplex MEX via an intermediary. I have checked out the router sample but it looks a bit complicated. Thanks Scott, I shall t ...Show All

• Visual Studio Graphical editor for API XML?

  Does anyone know of a decent editing tool that will let technical writers edit the XML files that are created from the compiler in a WYSIWYG-like environment before running them through Sandcastle to produce the final documentation Rob, HelpStudio (http://www.documentx.com/products/hs2/overview.asp) is available and I believe you can get a light version in VSSDK downloads. At Microsoft our technical writers use a seperate content management system to stoe these xml files and it has a Word based UI. I will blog details about this system at http://blogs.msdn.com/sandcastle/ soon. Anand.. ...Show All

• SQL Server Disabling Repl error (22538)

  Posted - 02/01/2007 : 22:35:02 Try dropping the subscriptions before trying to disable publishing and distribution. If you still have issues cleaning up, try using sp_removedbreplication at the subscriber and publisher. You can get more information on sp_removedbreplication from http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms188734.aspx Hope this helps, Tom This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights. ...Show All

• Windows Forms Events question

  hello there again people. i have been confused in c# events programming. i have this code and i have a form with 1 button named button1. Hi, the issue you are having is that the event keyword is really a bit of syntactic sugar. When you class is compiled each event is really replaced by a class field of the type of delegate associated with the event and two new methods are added that allow you to add delegates and remove delegates from the underlying multicast delegate, initially this delegate field is null. So when you raise an event it is really invoking all of the delegates in the underlying multicast delegates invocation list, if you have not assigned any listeners then the delegate is still null and you will get an error. ...Show All

• SQL Server sql 2000 to sql 2005 upgrade

  I have a sql 2000/2005 side-by-side install on a single server. I right-click a sql 2000 database, select All Tasks, and the Copy Database to upgrade a sql 2000 database. In the "Copy Database Wizard" I see the message: "To use the detach and attach method SQL Server Agent must run under an Integration Servicers Proxy account that can access the file system of both the source and destination servers." 1. What does that mean 2. I decided to click "Finish" in the wizard, and the database copy seemed to work fine. Whaterver 1) means does, by default, the SQL Server Agent already run under this "Integration Services Proxy" account. (Rememberr the upgrade process did work). TIA, ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Execution Speed

  Is there some reason that VB Express runs slower than VB I get the following times when reading from one file and writing to another file in random and sequential modes: Random File: VB6 running in Excel - 2.15 seconds (using Get and Put) VB Express running in debugging mode - 122 seconds VB Express compiled - 49 seconds Sequential File: VB6 running in Excel - 1.14 seconds (using Get and Put) VB Express running in debugging mode - 19 seconds VB Express compiled - 5 seconds There were two different files used, the first a bitmap file, and the second a text file.

• Visual C++ hiding LNK warnings

  Basically, I want to get rid off all the LNK warning For ex, LNK4099, or LNK4204, or any other one. I am linking my debug lib with a third party release lib. That's why I am getting those. Is there some kind of "pragma" for the linking step to hide warnings There was the undocumented #pragma comment(linker, "/ignore:4099") but it does not work anymore on Visual Studio 7.1. I is annoying to look at hundreds of these warnings rolling down on my screen. Thank you. So #pragma comment(linker, "/ignore:4099") would be the correct syntax. Actually, I tried / ignore:4099 in the additional link options, but it's not taken into account either :o( ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Vista Compatibilty with Access

  Morning, Over the past ten years my department have been creating bespoke applications that in same cases required using an external small data source. Access was the database use in most cases using 95, 97, 2000 and 2003. I know Vista is a little off being ready but is it known yet if any of the above will be incompatible with Vista so we can have time to perpare the changes required.

• SQL Server How to get a list of all dimensions within a cube in MDX?

  hi guys, i need to get a list of all dimensions within a cube in mdx any ideas I personally would seek for solution to bind the reporting server to some other forms of data. Particularly to something populated in memory. Then data would be populated by some code, which would work with AdomdClient. Or the AdomdClient code could populate a temporary table on a SQL Server and the report would fetch the data from that table. Or your entire solution could be based on proper navigation between the web pages constructed by purely WEB server and Reporting Server. When user accesses metadata information like list of dimension names then it would be an ASP.Net code to render the page accessing ...Show All
