• Visual C++ CLR console app - CString usage?

  I started off building a CLR console app and I want to use CString, but I seem to have problems getting access to it with VS2005 standard. My MFC project option is "Use Standard Windows Libraries" and it won't let me switch that giving the error "Error 1 Command line error D8016 : '/MTd' and '/clr' command-line options are incompatible" I've tried adding the MFC include files <cstring>, "string.h" and "afxcoll.h", when I used "afxcoll.h" I started getting more incompatible errors as well (with the "afxcoll.h") Is there a CString version in the CLR maybe I'm just missing that. The only references in the help files are for <cstring> and "string.h". ...Show All

• SQL Server Looking for sqlrun_tools.msi

  Today my computer started doing something strange when trying to compile a setup&deployment project. This project doesn't contain anything related to sql server whatsoever. When i compile, it pops up a windows installer dialog that starts doing something. Eventually it asks me for my Sql Server 2005 Tools disc, specifically looking for sqlrun_tools.msi. I tried putting in the disc that i'm pretty sure it was installed from (my MSDN disc) but it told me that the sqlrun_tools.msi on that disc wasn't the right one. I have no idea why its asking me for this at this time, nor do i know to do to get it to stop. Thanks in advance for any help. Do you still have the SQL Server 2005 Tools installed ...Show All

• Windows Forms Upgrade Install Failing from 1.1 to 2.0

  Hi, I have an application that I developed in 1.1; the application was delopyed to a large number of workstations via GPO (have used this process multiple times to upgrade the application); I have recently updraded the application to 2.0 and when installing the application on my test workstation (not using GPO at this stage) it fails to upgrade the previous version that was written in 1.1, I end up with the old version and new version sitting in the "Add and Remove programs" list. I can confirm that both applications have different product codes and the same upgrade code, I have also selected in the 2.0 installer to "RemovePreviousVersions". I have used Orca to check that the upgrade ID are the same even aft ...Show All

• Windows Forms "C2" format AND Binding

  I have 4 Readonly textboxes bounded to a stored procedure in 4 tableLayoutPanel cells. I can't figure out how to format the Text as "C2" (with $ and 2 decimal places) Any Ideas Thanks! I found a simpler solution (since I needed read only) this .sumByRepTextBox.DataBindings[ "Text" ].FormatString = "C2" ; this .sumByRepPlantTextBox.DataBindings[ "Text" ].FormatString = "C2" ; this .sumByRepPlantFamilyTextBox.DataBindings[ "Text" ].FormatString = "C2" ; this .sumByRepPlantFamilyMarketTextBox.DataBindings[ "Text" ].FormatString = "C2" ; that made the content show correctly. ...Show All

• SQL Server Basic: Starting SQL Server

  Hello, I am having trouble just starting SQL Server 2005. When I try to use Management Studio, I do not see any server name. I just need to be able to start it up! Thanks, pagates Hi pagates, One of the easiest ways to start SQL Server 2005 is go to Start -> Control Panel -> Administrative Tools -> Services . Look up for a service by the name SQL Server or SQL Server (your instance name) , right click -> Start . If you do not see this service listed, it is likely that you have installed only the client tools for SQL Server 2005 and not the server. Hope that helps, Amol. ...Show All

• Microsoft ISV Community Center Forums Highlighting cells within a worksheet

  Several of us in our office have a fantasy golf league and we administrate it off-line using an excel spreadsheet (we haven't found a free website that lets us tailor the rules to the way we like it.) Anyway, it is a salary cap format, meaning that only one golfer can be on one team at a time. To keep track of this, one of our worksheets has a list of all the golfers. That same worksheet also has every team's roster. For all golfers that are on someone's roster, I manually highlight that same name in the master list of golfers so it is easy to see who is taken and who is available. What I'd like to be able to do is have it automatically highlight that golfer's name in the master list when it appears in the individual team roster's page (an ...Show All

• Visual C++ Why I can't complie below code in VS2005

  Because of std::swap function, I can't compile below function. but if I don't specify template parameter, it is compiled very well. I wonder why I can't specify template parameter when I use swap function, but if include <utility> instead of <vector>, I can use std::swap specifing template paramter. I think it's Microsoft STL library bug..., it is needed to fix it. #include <vector> // if I include <utility> I can compile below code. template <class T> class CTest { typedef CTest<T> ThisType; T* m_Array; public: void Swap(ThisType& other) { std::swap<T*>(m_Array, other.m_Array); } }; int _tmain(int argc, _TCHAR* argv[]) { CTest<double> test, test2; test.Swap(test2); ...Show All

• Visual C++ LNK4098 and static libraries using different runtime types

  I've inherited a project that has various problems. This project is a DLL linking with the MT run-time libraries. It also links to several static libraries that are outside of my control but I believe they're all compiled with the same version of Visual C++. I'm assuming the LNK4098 warning is being dumped out because one or more of the other static libs were compiled with a different runtime type (assuming single threaded). The dox for LNK4098 mention "...prevent mixing different [run-time] types... You receive this warning if you try to use different types ... of the run-time library...". A warning doesn't seem like prevention to me. It then goes on to describe the NODEFAULTLIB option and what run-time libraries to ignore wh ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Getting error "TF10201: Source control could not start the manual merge tool"

  Hi I'm receiving the error " TF10201: Source control could not start the manual merge tool. " when I'm trying to resolve a conflict during checkin. The scenario is as follows: I have 1 file $/TeamProject/Dev/MyFile.h that has been branched to $/TeamProject/Branch/MyFile.h I have made changes to both the "Dev" and the "Branch" file, and then done a merge from "Dev" to "Branch", this creates a pending merge on "Branch" (as expected). Now I try to checkin the pending change and receive a conflict (also as expected), I click "Resolve" and select "merge changes in merge tool" and then I get the above error message. If I try to resolve this from the co ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Random number problem

  Hi, first, i know how to use the Random-Class in C#. I am usually using the current DateTime's milisecond-value as the seed. Random myRand = new Random ( DateTime .Now.Millisecond) Well. Maybe you already see the problem. As my function gets called 10 times IN a milisecond (gets called in a foreach-loop) the seed value is 10 times the some. And the Random-Class isn't really THAT Random so i'll get 10 times the same number out of Next() Really annoying. Any suggestions At all it's a C# problem, but this problem only occurs when using XNA because (as usual for a game) the function gets called very often per second (even millisecond). Greetings. Also, since you mention the inad ...Show All
