• Visual C# what is Impersonation

  can someone expain me what is Impersonation from an ASP.NET side and when it can be used. If you have any simple examples, please share. Thank you, Hi the code above is really not necessary... there you are using values (from web.config/registry) to impersonate one specific account! what you described above was to pass on the user credentials of the person connecting to the site: if that is what you want you need to do two things: impersonate = true (which you have done) http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/xh507fc5.aspx and set the authentication to windows http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/eeyk640h.aspx Hope this helps you out, please close the thread if it does ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Rocket Commander XNA Game

  Hi everyone. I ported my famous Rocket Commander game (first .NET 2.0 game, free game with source code) to XNA and thanks to some multi-threaded optimizations it runs very good on the Xbox 360 too now. More information, the download links, screenshots and some notes about the porting process from MDX to XNA can be found on my blog: http://abi.exdream.com Rocket Commander XNA Screenshot: Great game =D The code will keep me occupied for a while also, trying to find my way through my own XNA game (which I will post in a few weeks once I get past the triangle collision problems, for which the functions are like, non-existant). I'm proud of you, fellow European! Now go out there and make some more games! Christmas pizza to you! ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Unwanted Yellow tint in DirectX-VMR9-Application

  Greetings everybody, I customized the VMRAllocator9-Sample from the newest Platform-SDK to project a Video-Texture on a Geometry supplied by me. I used to compile it with the nmake-Tool, as MS does not deliver a MS-Studio Project, and everything works fine that way. I set up a Project by myself for better comfort in VS8, copied all the Files and had quite a hard time resolving all the missing libraries and External Symbols for the Project to compile properly. The point now is that despite it compiles without errors and even displays the Video on my Geometry, the whole Video (and also Bitmap-Textures) is tinted Yellow. It seems like the Program misses the Blue-Channel, letting Blue Color out and displaying only Red and Green. I have no clue ...Show All

• Windows Live Developer Forums Explicitly show text for pushpin (no mouseover)?

  Folks: Is there any way to force the display of the pop up for a pushpin without requiring the user to mouse-over it I'd like to start the display of a map with a handful of my pushpins already popped-up; is that possible N.Z. Bear The Truth Laid Bear http://truthlaidbear.com There is an example out there that does this but we wanted both. A small label on the point itself and a detailed mouse over. We used AddControl, but that only half of it, you also need to remove them. Have a look at this (left out the AJAX query to get data): var map = null; var pinID = 0; var LabelID = 0; function GetMap() { map = new VEMap('MapDiv'); map.LoadMap(new VELatLong(0, 0), 1 ,'r' , ...Show All

• .NET Development Detecting Disconnected Sockets

  I'm creating a multi-threaded Tcp-Server, each thread reads from it's Network Stream in blocking mode. How can I detect if a client is lost (not disconnected correctly) My server works by catching the IO exception or receiving 0 bytes from the read function to alert a disconnect. The problem is closing the connection (and thread for that matter) when the client's power is lost or it loses network connectivity. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.   Durgaprasad Gorti wrote: Yes on the server side you can post a receive. One thing you can do is always have an async post on on the socket to get if there is any received data if that gives 0 or exception then the ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Get back to my program with keyboard

  Hi, My program will be hidden and at times I want to come back to it with a keyboard combination, such as alt-u. Can anyone tell me how to do that Thanks in advance, Wayne Good pickup NoBugz I personally wouldnt register hotkeys with Windows for a number of reasons. 1) the hotkey you assigned could change within say future version of Windows (unlikely) 2) the hotkey maybe registered with perhaps another applications It is good that you unregister the hotkey just before you exit, good practice. But that was just my own personal opinion :-) ...Show All
