• SQL Server Order which mirroring database get up

  Hi I have 3 server configured with mirroring. When the automatic failover occur, I use alter event generate by Sql Agent to rebuild user account (problem witch orphan user). My application use multiple database and I set up mirroring to multiple database. A question is the order which database get up after automatic failover. When event occur all database are ready to use, or maybe one database get up and sql agent send me event , secound database get up and sql agent send me event. What is the order There isn't any specific order. The first one to detect a failure will be the first one to failover and should theorectically be the first one online. Use the WMI events to trigger the alerts on state chang ...Show All

• Visual Basic circular references between usercontrols and 'main' form in vb6->.net upgrade

  in upgrading from vb6 to vs2005 user controls are introducing a circular reference problem in the following way. In the vb6 solution, user controls could access methods in the 'Main Form' upon which the user controls are used. In VS2005, I create a separate Windows Control Library Project for each User Control. For composite controls I 'reference' any other controls as needed. However, there are controls which call methods/functions on the 'Main form' within a Windows Application project. That project includes the references to all the user controls ( which show up in the ToolBox.) Circular references have been introduced which didn't exist before. The Mainform references the User Control. The User Control calls MainForm methods. ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Upgrade Visual Studio Code Analysis to the latest version of FxCop

  Is it possible to update the Visual Studio Code Analysis to the latest version of FxCop I guess I can try to replace the rules assemblies in C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\Team Tools\Static Analysis Tools\FxCop. But is this going to run smoothly Anyone tried that Hi Ivaylo, Unfortunately this is not a supported scenario. First of all, the standalone bits of FxCop are different than what ships with Visual Studio 2005. In the latter, the bits contain special code to let Visual Studio know whether the build is up-to-date or not. If you replace these bits with the standalone version, you'll run in to issues that Visual Studio will never consider your build up-to-date as long as code analysis is ...Show All

• Visual C# What does <T> mean?

  Error 1 The type arguments for method 'System.Array.FindIndex< T >(T[], int, int, System.Predicate< T >)' cannot be inferred from the usage. Try specifying the type arguments explicitly. D:\VCsharp_Projects\tapTCPports_1\Form1.cs 1253 27 tapTCPports_1 i am curious as to the meaning of the symbol <T> on the first and second lines in the error message above. Thanks. To elaborate on NewGuy's message, and to fully answer you question, Generic can be used to define both classes and individual methods. Here you are using a generic method, which have a special ability which doesn't apply to generic classes: Type inferrence. I could define a method such as this: public T Double<T>(T single) { return sin ...Show All

• .NET Development Getting parameter-type T TypeInfo for call to GetValue...

  Greetings, I am implementing a generic container class (RedBlackTree<T>), which needs to be serializable. This is not a remoting question, but a serialization question. I appologize up front for the language choice, I am using C++/CLI for this project because it allows for deterministic deletion of managed objects, and because the original project was in C++, so the converion to managed is easier to C++/CLI than C#. The serialization appears to work, meaning it executes without throwing any exceptions, and the serialization information appears to have all the correct data when viewed through the watch utility in the debugger. When I attempt to deserialize, however, I run into errors. The code is as follows: ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Physical Screen Orientation

  Hi everyone. I was hoping you would be able to help me with a problem. I bought a Toshiba Tablet PC a few weeks ago (loving it) and included with it are little programs made by Toshiba that help with things such as hardware specific features (ie. the Fn key which lets me change brightness or volume with a key combination, etc.). This was quite handy but there is a couple of problems. First, these little programs are only installed when I use my Toshiba OEM Windows XP Installation CD. And now that I've sworn off XP and moved to Vista, these programs are no longer available. And secondly, I don't know about you guys but I find the evasiveness and user experiences of these little applets annoying. They have their own notification icons whi ...Show All

  Hi, I have a folder named "Sql Scripts" and i have around 25 to 30 sql scripts files (*.sql) in that folder. Basically it is a sort of data migration process.

• Visual C# Not sure where this should be but sort of a Math question

  Using Trig in a C# program or other (I mention C# because it is what I usually use now) I see strange results on what I try to do. (I would assume (sure) it is me) BUT I had this thought in my little old brain. The way I see it, Trig. is based on a true circle. However when I make a picturebox, panel or other it is always some a square or rectangle with my bitmap or Draw object within it. (Does Microsoft have a true circle Control ) If I want a theta, I 'think' it is sort of based on the mouse/joystick input from the picturebox/panel/whatever which is a square/rectangle..

• Windows Forms .NET 1.1 or 2.0 ?!

  Hi Guys, Ive written an application that requires .NET 1.1 and works fine if you have it installed. My problem is that when people with .NET 2.0 try to install my application they are forced to install 1.1 by the installer. Is there a way to stop this as my application should work with either 1.1 or 2.0 Ideally I would like it to force people to install *any* version of .NET ... Thanks in advance Todd Thanks for the reply. Ive been hesitant to upgrade to VS2005 until any problems are fixed.
