• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) app.config

  I have a managed dll C# code that is called from non managed C++ using the COM wrapper. this code initializes a servicesHost for WCF Uri baseAddress = new Uri ( "http://localhost:8080/BOSDcm" ); Console .WriteLine( "inside StartListening" ); m_myServiceHost = new ServiceHost ( typeof (WCFBOSService. BOSService ), baseAddress); m_myServiceHost.Open(); this works fine if called from a managed code, because app.config is reading correctly. but in my case I supose because the unanaged code does not loads app.config I got an execption. my question is: How I can force to load app.config so the ApplyConfiguration methods will find the correct data thanks, Dani. ...Show All

• Smart Device Development How to remove the "x" button at the upper and right corner on the interface?

  Hi, I am using VB.net and Visual Studio 2005 to compile a program for a Pocket PC with MicrosoftR Windows Mobile 2003 Second Edition. When every interface is opened, there is a "x" button at the upper and right corner on the upper blue bar of the interface. This blue bar is always there, and users can click this "x" button to close an interface. However, I would not like to ask users to use this "x" button to close an interface. What I want to do is just to ask users to close interface by clicking a "Exit" button to close interface, and this "Exit" button is put onto the interface through the design part of Visual Studio when I compile this program. So How can remove the "x" ...Show All

• Visual C++ How to identify Heap curruption

  Hello World, I am getting a Heap corruption message in my DLL. How can I identify the cause of the heap curruption. I am using CrtCheckMemory(), and it fails in an constructor where there is a call to new operator. regards, Karthikeyan. I agree with Samuel on that checking code to ensure it immune to heap corruption is usaully easier than getting deeply involved into the memory use diagnosis troubles. Recently I experienced a heap corruption error when I was coding a C++ program to deal with DDE conversation with a commercial server program. The error was caused by a simple string allocation sentence like this: char* ret = new char[nBytes]; in my DDERequest function which performs the da ...Show All

  Can Anyone tell me how compatible it is going to be with previous versions of Windows. Ok perhaps I was too vague, Windows Vienna is the s uccessor of Windows Vista which Microsoft has already begun planning for. It is said to be a "new generation of operating systems".

• SQL Server SQL Server Side Trace Application compatibility

  I am using sp_trace_getdata @TraceID,@RowCount to get generated events. I was able to extract all the events by this procedure in SQL Server 2000, but in 2005 when I execute same procedure with @RowCount = 1 as second parameter, it returns me the first event that is there in the event queue of trace and queue gets cleared, so all other events are lost i.e. every call to sp_trace_getdata is clearing up the queue.

• SQL Server How do I update a SQL Table from a spreadsheet in EXCEL using VBA

  I am a new programmer trying to write some VBA codes in excel to get data out from the Sql server database, edit/update the data in EXCEL, and then update the SQL server database with the updated information. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. There is no connection between SQL Server and Excel. Excel stored information positional, SQL Server relational. You will have to do all the code to update the database on your own, for information about getting data written to SQL Server using VBA, simply search the web for "ADO EXCEL VBA SQL Server". You will get tons of links for that. HTH, Jens SUessmeyer. --- http://www.sqlserver2005.de --- ...Show All

• SQL Server Question Regarding Many To Many Relationship for Cube Design-MDX Query

  Hi I need some help in implementing one business requirement. Let us take an example to illustrate this. Let say we have four tables; Users, UserAccessBranch, Branch and FactLoan. User’s access to particular loan is based on his access to loan’s Branch (BranchID or OperatingBranchID). If user has access to at-least one of the two branches (BranchID and OperatingBranchID) then the loan is accessible to the user. Users.UserID a BranchAccess(UserID,BranchID) s Branch.BranchID a FcatLoan.BranchID a FactLoan.OperationalBranchID In case of T-SQL it’s very easy to implement. In case of MDX it’s easy to implement if there is only one column of BranchID is the ...Show All

• .NET Development sprintf() for unmanaged C++ in .NET 2005

  Hi all, We have our projects written in native C++ (unmanaged) running on Visual C++6.0. We are migrating all these to .NET 2005 environment. We want to retain all the C++ code(unmanaged) without converting it into managed C++ in .NET environment. The problem that we are facing right now is trying to use the sprintf() function. We use sprintf() in so many places for formatting strings. Since the stdio libraries are deprecated in .NET environment, we are unable to use this function. Any ideas for alternative sprintf function in unmanaged C++ or .NET I tried using String. Format() but it failed to recognize this function. Thanks, Nathan If you want to use the recommended replacement f ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Unique filenames?

  Hi I have limited knowledge of TFS, i'm currently trying to develop a way of organising a file structure within TFS for lots of test scripts. It will be broken down into <Area/SCRUM><Test Case><Test Script> What i would like to know is, is there a way of making TFS generate unique filenames for your documents (mainly word docs). For example when you check in a document can TFS label the filename so no files have the same unique identifier in the filename. The 01-01 below is where i would like TFS to use a unique Ref. e.g. EMS- COM-.XXX -01 -01(TFS Unique Ref)-Pass/Fail-Description/Summary Sorry if this doen't make much sense, still getting to grips...

  Ive set up a treeview using the MSComctlLib.TreeCtrl.2 control that has a series of information, currently seperated by commas and hyphens etc. Because of the proportional text used it all looks a bit messy. Is is possible to use tab characters to better lay out the displayed text of a node, if so how (I've tried Chr(9)). How would the tab spacing be set up etc. Thanks That's what I was afraid of.
