• SQL Server Wrong totals in named sets

  Hi In BI Development Studio I create a name set with this sintax: [CATALOGO].[CATALOGONIVEL3].[Tiempo Mantencion] [CATALOGO].[CATALOGONIVEL3] has another two members instead of [Tiempo Mantencion] After that I create a calculated member with this SUM ([SET Tiempo Mantencion] , [Measures].[HORAS JUSTIFICADAS]) It works fine in almost all cells in the cube, but when I ask for the others two members of [CATALOGO].[CATALOGONIVEL3] it does NOT returns NULL it returns the same total of [CATALOGO].[CATALOGONIVEL3].[Tiempo Mantencion]. When I open one this members (it exists a sub level named [CATALOGO].[CATALOGONIVEL4]) the cube show a null cell in the subitems (thats right) and the [CATALOGO].[CATALOGONIVEL3].[Tiempo Mante ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) WCF and UPnP

  Hi. Has anybody been looking into how to build a UPnP-compatible device based on the WCF framework Hi Simon, The Device Profile for Web Services (DPWS) is a lightweight subset of the overall web services protocol suited for the network connected devices. This is the future of the network connected devices. It is an essential part of the Windows Rally technologies ( http://www.microsoft.com/whdc/rally/default.mspx ). There are some independent vendors that are looking to build UPnP <-> DPWS gateway. WCF does not natively support DPWS, but it can be built on top of it. We are actively looking at improving our support for device connectivity in future. Thanks, Vipul Modi ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Release Images from process

  I have an ASP.NET application to generate pages for a magazine. To generate this pages I use WPF, I call a new Thread with a STA Appartment. Thread call = new Thread(new ThreadStart(Generate)); call.SetApartmentState(ApartmentState.STA); call.Start(); In the magazine I'm generating I use some images that I can download from the web, after downloaded these images are stored in a server folder to be used later by WPF to generate the pages. The problem is that after generating the pages I want to delete the images, after the process is complete and the application process keeps locking the images. I've tried to terminate the process using the images, but it seems that it is the webserver using the images and the only way I f ...Show All

• SQL Server distributed install - connection error

  we have a sql server 2005 reporting services distributed installation db server has: sqldb01\dev, sqldb01\tst, sqldb01\beta web server is TestWeb01. This had dev, tst, beta installations of report server all reports are working ok except on beta. Beta was setup just a couple days ago so it has not worked thus far. all reports use a shared data source on beta(just like on dev and tst) here is the error on beta for all the reports: any idea (SQLDB01_DEV is not the shared data source name. SQLDB01_DEV was used by the developer when creating the report. But this should not matter right The report should ignore this and use the shared data source i assume ) An error has occurred during report processing. Cannot cre ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. "Grab Point" of a Texture2D

  Right now when I draw a texture it uses 0, 0 of the texture for where it draws it based on the X, Y I tell it to draw it at. I need to change that "grab point" to the center of the texture. Does anyone know how this is possbile Thanks. I was typing while you posted, and I didn't know about that overload. But one advantage is that you can pass less arguments. I would probably use my method over yours for that reason. Maybe if it wasn't just moving the registration point to the middle, then the overload would be more useful. But really, it's a preference thing. It's nice to have options, and doing it yourself is trivial. ...Show All

• Visual C++ stringstream causes memory link VC++ 2005?

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Window transparency performance

  I was thinking to use window transparency in one of my applications, I have used Perforator and it seems that everything is rendered in hardware, however the visual performance is very bad comparing to the non-transparent version. The questions are: Is June CTP redering transparent windows in hardware Do transparent windows introduce too much overhead When an application specifies window transparency, WPF marks the window in question as layered so the OS will respect the per-pixel alpha information on the window. In this scenario we can use hardware acceleration to rasterize the contents of the window, but because of the way layered windows work we need to use GDI to do the final present of the window to the screen. This step is mor ...Show All
