• Visual C++ Bug in "Find in files"

  When I use "Find in files", not all the files specified are being searched. Specifically, when I search "Entire solution", and file type is * .c;*.cpp;*.cxx;*.cc;*.tli;*.tlh;*.h;*.hpp;*.hxx;*.hh;*.inl;*.rc;*.resx;*.idl;*.asm;*.inc the .asm files in the \Release subfolder are not searched unless they are open in the text editor, with one exception. Bugs should be opened here so it really gets addressed. (People here don't fix bugs.) http://connect.microsoft.com/feedback/default.aspx SiteID=210 ...Show All

• .NET Development Where can I get PCRWIZARD.EXE?

  I need to rebuild the performance counters on an XP machine where they are missing. Where can I get the PCRWIZARD.EXE Thanks. Thanks for the info, Aaron. I knew about that KB article, but was hoping I could get the program and have an easier go at it. I'll try calling MicroSoft, although the last time I called them to report a bug they wanted to charge me for it--just to report the issue. So, I don't have big hopes for that. Thanks again, Mark ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Checking Document Format in workflow and deleting file in library if format fails. HELP :(

  Hi guys I'm currently working on Sharepoint 2007 and I am developing a workflow that will kicks in when a new document is uploaded in the library. What I wish to achieve is for me to: - Check the document to see if it is in the right format (I've developed a custom api that allow me to perform the check and return a bool value). - If the bool value is true (doc check successful), the doc will be uploaded into the library as per normal. -If the bool value is false (doc failed the check), the doc will not be uploaded into the library and a new task is created to request for a new upload I am wondering if workflow can achieve this task. And if there's any way I can find codes /sample where I can add task.. I kept getting workfl ...Show All

• Visual C# Accessing Class Properties within the Class - use private or public properties.

  Hi all, If I have a class that declares private variables which are then accessed via their relating public properties, which ones (public or private) do I use when using them within the Class in which they are created. For example... public class SiteMember : Person { private string ID; // Constructor(s) public SiteMember(string id) { m_ID = id; /* I have use the Public access here, but should I use the private */ } // Public property public string m_ID { get { return ID; } set { ID = value; } } } I just need clarify on whats the best practice really. Thanks. Tryst Obviously if the property does some complex calculation then using that internally makes sen ...Show All

• Smart Device Development MSMQ: Insufficient resources to complete operation on CE

  Hello, I've got the following problem: sending a recoverable message from mobile device to remote queue always fails with "Insufficient resources to complete operation". When the message is not sent as recoverable everything works. Client: C#/NETCF v2 SP1 application on Windows CE 5.0 Remotequeue is private on Windows 2003 Server SP1. Any idea Regards Sven Hi Sven, Recoverable Messaging actually consumes more resources than it's unrealiable counterpart. This is because the recoverable messages are actually written to the file system so they persist through resets due to hardware or software failures. So depending on the size of the messages you're trying to send and the amount of ...Show All

• SQL Server Row yielded no match during lookup

  I have configured a lookup transformation to 'redirect error' all no-matched rows to a text file using the flat file destination. Now I want to send the same text file as an email.I Know email can be send using the send email task but i need to know where to place send email task and how to check whether flat file contains the error data. Can we use the send email task on eventhandler and invoke the same in case of such error "row yielded no match during lookup" so that we can send the such non matching rows as an email. Or else any other way to send an email after generating the text file ocntaining the non matching rows. Please suggest using steps or example I'm not sure I u ...Show All

• SharePoint Products and Technologies Capacity Planning Sharepoint 2007 DBs

  As a DBA, I am trying to do some capacity planning for sharepoint 2007 dbs. We will have a large site of 2+TB and I am trying to get an idea of what sizes to expect once the DBs grow to full size. The database types are Content (multiple), Sharedcontent, Search, SharedSearch, AdminContent, and Config. Can anyone offer any advice. Any advice on what type of activity to expect from each of these databases would also be appreciated. Thanks! dba72, There are no hard and fast rules on this and you will need to work with the SharePoint administrators to ensure your site collection content databases are managable.

• Visual Studio Team System Understanding areas and iterations

  I have been searching for some guidance on how to use areas and iterations, how WIs tie into a particular area etc. I haven't been able to find ANYTHING that gives a decent explanation of these topics. About the MSF guidance; I'm not sure if it's just me or do other people also find this to be too high level to be of any real use The closest I came was this post by Eric Lee: http://blogs.msdn.com/ericlee/archive/2006/08/09/693849.aspx Can anyone point me to some articles/posts that shed more light on these features Thanks!

• .NET Development How to release a commercial application without needing to adjust security policy (Request for the permission of type ...)

  Hi All, I am currently developing an application using C# which uses a desktop database to access information for use within the program. The error I am receiving is at the bottom of this post. Its a standard 'Request for the permission of type ...' error which I see from time to time when developing other applications. I know of a solution by using the 'Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0 Configuration' wizard to increase the zone security under runtime security policy. Making these changes allows the program to work on any machine which I actually configure (or copy the security.config file too). However, I will be releasing this program to be used over many different systems (all of which will require the end user to install the soft ...Show All

• .NET Development .NET encourages poor coding?

  The more I look at .NET error handling, and how to deal with it, the more frustrating it gets. Take this class for example.   It has a single boolean property.   You have to know on which side of the call an error will be raised… by the caller or the callee… well here’s a prime example.    Say you have to read data from somewhere like a text file and you cannot ensure the format of the data is proper.   Well, you cannot depend on a property to check that data for you if you strongly type the property. Read the orange comment to see what I mean, and please let me know how you deal with this situation since to me it appears to require horrible program design.     Public Class ...Show All

• SQL Server Update Package to save new property values

  Hi, using custom tasks. My properties got saved properly the first time the task is added to the workspace. After that, changing values in the CustomUI updates the properties, but the package shows, that It doesn't need to get saved. So my properties don't get changed in the package XML. Moving my custom task on the workspace after changing properties, let the package go into "save me" state and my propertiy values get saved to XML. So now, Im searching for a method or property I have to call or set to show the package it needs to get saved after closing my CustomUI. Any hint Thanks   PS: When I change the property value in the task properties grid (lower right). The package gets notified about the need to get saved. ...Show All

• SQL Server Programmaticaly associating a schedule with a deployed report?

  I have a report deployment system (in C#) set up such that it takes all the RDL files in a folder and deploys them to the target server. Since many of these reports are computationally fairly expensive, I wanted them to display from a report snapshot, on a daily schedule. Although I know how to do this manually via Report Manager, I wasn't sure which SOAP methods to call on the ReportingServices webservice to make this happen. Anyone have any experience with this or tips Thanks, Arjun It can be set using SetExecutionOptions method ( http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-gb/library/microsoft.wssux.reportingserviceswebservice.rsmanagementservice2005.reportingservice2005.setexecutionoptions.aspx ) ...Show All
