SQL Server Drill to detail in ProClarity
Hi, This is from a previous post I had put, http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx PostID=973310&SiteID=1 ProClarity gives a "Drill-To-Detail" by default. When you click on that it shows the key columns for the fact tables. It uses Drillthrough for this. I tried defining drillthrough actions in ssas 2005, but they come up seperately as actions in proclarity. The "Drill-To-Detail" is still displayed on right-click at proclarity. The actions are working in ssas 2005, but according to the definition, if a drillthrough is executed, if no return columns are specified, then it picks the return columns from the action that resembles similar query target. This does not seem to work for me! if nothi ...Show All
Smart Device Development Crash when hosting Windows Media Player ver 10.3 ActiveX control (T-Mobile DASH)
I am using Alex Feinman's Compact Framework ActiveX host (as described in this MSDN article ). It works great when hosting Media Player versions 10.1 and 10.2, that are available on most WM5 Pocket PCs and Smartphones. For some reason, when trying to instantiate the WMP control on a T-Mobile DASH smartphone, the device UI hangs (every single running application including the home screen). The only difference that I found is that DASH uses a newer version of Media Player -10.3 (mine is build 15097). I was able to trace the problem to a call to InPlaceActivate() -> DoVerb( -5 ....) during the control creation process ( called from TransitionUpTo(..) in AxHost.cs) . Oddly enough, commenting the call to InPlaceActivate(), allows the ...Show All

SQL Server the data is missing when browsing the cube
Hello, I use visual studio 2005 to build a cube through analysis services project. When I browse the cube, the data is gone. For example, the dimensions are product names and dates, and the measure is the price. When I browse the cube, I can see the column names and row names, which are dates and product names, but I could not see the price. They are all empty. I am kinda of confused, why does the data gone. I check the tables I read data from, the price are there. Somehow, when I read the price data in as measure, it is gone. Before browse the cube, I defined semiadditive behavior to none for all the measures. and then I process the cube successfully. I am stuck here, kinda of confused. Any suggestion Thank you for your help. Aurora ...Show All

Visual C++ Use of __m128i as two 64 bits integers
Hi, I'm trying to write an x64 implementation - targeted at AMD64 - of the lock-free queue designed by messrs Maged M. Michael and Michael L. Scott (go to http://www.cs.rochester.edu/research/synchronization/pseudocode/queues.html ) and referenced in http://www.devx.com/amd/Article/33290/1763 . The technique involves wrapping up pointers to the 'next' node in the singly-linked list as a pointer and a version. As pushes and pops occur, the algorithm constantly checks the version of either the tail or head node (when pushing/popping respectively) whilst it attempts to make modifications. If the versions change during the push or the pop (meaning another thread has just completed a change), the thread restarts th ...Show All
