• .NET Development How to force web services not to omit null fields in response SOAP message?

  Hi, We use web services to expose data manipulation services to another system developed with a different technology. Unfortunately, that system cannot handle missing fields in SOAP message (By default, SOAP messages generated in web services do not include fields with null value). Any one know how to force web services to generate the field tag even the value is null Thank you! You need to use [XmlElement(IsNullable=true)] on your reference type members to achieve what you want. Unfortunately if you are using attributes (members marked with [XmlAttribute]), there is nothing you can do: you would have to initialize them in the ctor. Thanks, Elena ...Show All

• Windows Forms Losing label clicks

  Here is the context. I developed a ‘CustomButton’ class inheriting from UserControl in order to create buttons with transparent background image. This class has a label to hold the button text. In order to center the text with respect to the background image, I made the label the same size as the user control which is also the same size as the background image. Hence, when the user clicks on the custom button he really clicks on the label not on the user control. Here is the problem. If you click 50 times really quickly on a button, the 50 button clicks will be processed no problem but when you click 50 times really quickly on a label, some of the clicks are lost and not processed. Is there a way to tweak my label ...Show All

• Visual Studio Help not listed in TOC after install

  Hi All, I am finding a strange problem with the integration of help collection. In our case, help is installed using a VS setup program. This msi is being installed silently as part of another msi install. The help is registered correctly. The help collection is listed in the filter combobox for help-index, contents and search. But, say in contents, no contents from the help is listed. similarly for index, no entries from our help collection are listed. Search also doesn't work. I can get this working by removing our collection from VSCC and adding this again, I have to close and reopen IDE between and after these steps. Any idea how to resolve this so that the help collection works after install without any further ste ...Show All

• .NET Development DataTables and SQLDataAdapter events can trigger eachother causing additional hits to the Database

  I've noticed when doing inserts and updates to a SQL database from a DataTable, the SQLDataAdapter will AcceptChangesDuringUpdate and AcceptChangesDuringFill. This is a great feature, except when the data values come from the database such as a Primary key for a new row or default values when no value was specified by the end user, then this causes another RowChanged event to fire and the Update back to the database is called because the RowState is set to Modified when the DataTable Row is updated with the new values from SQL. I'd like to be able to halt notifications on a DataTable under certain circumstances such as while I'm executing an SQLDataAdapter.Fill(dt) or on some other unknown occasion... Is this currently possible or wi ...Show All

• Visual Basic Select runtime made controls

  Hello, I' have a problem: First I tell you what the aim is: I make a visualisation of a machine. On loading the visualisation form, i make new pictureboxes with the picture of (for example) a grey motor. In my main form, I make a connection with a PLC. Every 500ms I get an update from the status of the machine. The main form checks what elements had changed, and if they are used in this visualisation form, update them in this form. Now the problem is to select this exact picturebox, to change its picture to (for example) a green or red motor when the status is on or fault. Here the code on for making the new pictureboxes: Public Sub NewPicture( ByVal ID As Integer , ByVal Type As Integer , ByVal PositieX As Inte ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Managed DirectX Sprites: Is it possible to light them?

  Hi, Does anyone know if it is possible to apply Direct3D lights to sprites constructed using the Sprite helper class in Managed DirectX Since the class creates a quad for the sprite, I would have thought it possible to light the quad or rather the quad's texture. I have tried adding a light to my sprite scene and have tried doing this both before and after drawing the sprites. However, I cannot seem to get the lights to work. I have used the following code: // This is in my initialise section: m_Direct3DDevice.RenderState.Lighting = true; m_Direct3DDevice.RenderState.ZBufferEnable = true; // This is in my render loop: m_Direct3DDevice.Clear(Microsoft.DirectX.Direct3D.ClearFlags.Target, Color.Black, 1.0f, 0); m_Direct3DDevice.BeginScene(); ...Show All
