• SQL Server Thread Synchronization problem

  Hi, I have a multithreaded windows service in vb.net. There in i am watching some folders using FileSystemWatcher. And also the service update the database. Now, the problem is that, when i try to insert, update or select data from database, other thread or the same thread (i am not sure which thread) tries to execute other query. This is causing some errors such as the GNE, or timeout errors on the ExecuteNonQuery functions. I am opening only 1 database connection and every one uses the same connection. I want that a function should acquire a lock on the connection object before executing any query. If other or even the same thread has the lock, it should wait indefinetly untill the lock is released. Actually i used t ...Show All

• Windows Live Developer Forums StartDate/EndDate format

I frequently use this approach to discover how things are setup. Tibor ...Show All

• Windows Forms How to get target path when drag/drop (.NET2.0 C#)

  Hi, I want to drag an item From my listview, To local computer's filesystem. I need to get the path of the target filesystem, how to do that in C# Br, -L Peter Ritchie wrote: By "to local computer's filesystem", I assume you mean dropping on to Windows Explorer... You don't process the drop, the destination application processes the drop. You give it a data format that it recognizes and you tell it (via the framework) to perform a drop with that data. What it does with that data is completly up to it. Hi, Yes, that's exactly what I mean, to Windows Explorer, desktop or etc. Do you mean I need to prepare a DataObject (which is a file), and then call DoDragDrop Coul ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Mouse Position During Drag-And-Drop

  What is the recommended way of getting the mouse cursor position during a drag-and-drop operation Using Mouse.GetPosition() or DragEventArgs.GetPosition() always returns some incorrect value. I just noticed that Dan Crevier circumvented this issue by Pinvoking into userland ( http://blogs.msdn.com/llobo/archive/2006/09/06/Scrolling-Scrollviewer-on-Mouse-Drag-at-the-boundaries.aspx ) but I would prefer to avoid that. Is there a reason why the WPF APIs for retrieving the mouse position do not work properly during drag-and-drop operations I've also encoutered issues. I was adapting Dan Crevier's DragDropScrollViewer ( http://blogs.msdn.com/llobo/attachment/743461.ashx ), and I thought I could do away with his MouseUtilities class ...Show All

• Commerce Server Trouble verifying services

  I have followed all of the steps in the online installation guide, and restarted IIS. I have also verified that a folder was created for each web service (\Intepub\wwwroot\siteCatalogWebService; Intepub\wwwroot\siteMarketingWebService; Intepub\wwwroot\siteOrdersWebService; Intepub\wwwroot\siteProfilesWebService). Then the guide says to visit the web page for each service (point browser to http://localhost/siteCatalogWebService/CatalogWebService.asmx ). I get a web page showing the methods of the service for the Catalog and Profile services, but when I point to the Marketing or Orders page I get an error saying: Configuration Error Description: An error occurred during the processing of a configuration file required to service ...Show All

• Internet Explorer Development IE7: Img control NOT allowed to view local files???

  Hi, I have an image preview function (in javascript) that allows the user to view an image before it is uploaded to the web site. I use the standard upload control (type="file") which- when set by browsing to an image- is used to determine the image path on the user's local machine. For some reason IE7 refuses to display the image. This works in IE6. I have to admit that this did not work in FireFox so maybe there is some standards incompatibility that is involved. code is : var path=up.value; // 'up'is the upload control img.src=path; // 'img' is the image control I've tried various ways to modify the local path with file:/// and file://localhost/ but nothing seems to work. Any one know Thanks! Jack ...Show All

• Windows Forms Write to a specific place in a text file

  Hello everybody I've been programming in C# for a while and done some writing and reading from text files. Now I've come to a point where I want to develop an editor in C#(hehe) and need to know how to insert a string on a specific place in a text file. Lets say that you want to insert a string on a sixth row, six characters from the left side of the screen I hope someone can provide an answer to me. Thx in advance Kind regards Allan H. That's going to make your editor incredibly slow. Each time you insert a character at the top of a 1MB file, you'll have write 1MB-1 bytes to the file. That hourglass is going to get old quickly. Do it like every other editor, edit your data using ...Show All

If yours is going to be a serious application, you should have all dependencies on the same version of VC. I once tried to use VC7.0 LIBs in VC7.1. And spent days in resolving some issues which latter came to be know as "Compiler incompatibility at the binary level" as someone at Autodesk put it. Microsoft does not support that kind of stuff. ...Show All
