• Smart Device Development Installing device driver

  I have created a device driver for PPC that I install and setup registry entries for in HLM\Drivers\BuiltIn. Under PPC 2003, my device driver DLL gets loaded at boot time. If I go into he remote process viewer and view device.exe, my dll shows up in the list. OTOH, on a WMv5 device, the dll does not show up under device.exe until my application calls RegisterDevice. Is there a way on WMv5 to get my device driver DLL pre-loaded since it doesn't seem that BuiltIn works like it use to What limitations are there for loading device dlls On one particular device, The RegisterDevice call fails with a rc=2 (NOT FOUND) even though the DLL is in \Windows just like on devices where it works. I've been told that an rc=2 could mean, in this instance, ...Show All

• Windows Forms DisplayMember with multiples columns

  Hi all !! I'm trying to display more than one column in DisplayMember property of a ComboBox control. Is it possible I alson can't concatenate the coluns in the select command, becouse I'm using this command for the DataSource: this.lstTables.DataSource = con.GetSchema("Tables"); I hope you can help me.

Is it possible NO....When default databinding is in use you can only bind the display member and the value member to a single column You can create a custom data class...that concantenates the columns into a single class field that can be databound ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Framerate component

  Based on this thread I have created a simple framerate component. Considerations: You might change the namespace in line to your game's namespace. Currently, the game window's title will be used to display the framerate (this will change when XNA supports fonts). As a workaround, you can use garykac's bitmap fonts example to modify this behavior. If "Enabled" is set to false, framerates are not calculated (Current is set to 0). If "Visible" is set to false, the current framerate value is not displayed (but yet it can be calculated if enabled). When you want to show the decimal part of the framerate value (that is, "ShowDecimals" is set to true), you can set the display format to the fixed one (like "0.00"). You can also set whether the t ...Show All

• Smart Device Development An internal error occurred in PlatformVerificationTask

  Hi I get an 'internal error occurred in PlatformVerificationTask' warning when I build, but the code is still able to execute. There aren't too many people reporting this warning. So, it must either be very rare or there must be a quick fix to it. Ok, here is more detail concerning this warning and my project: 1) The project type is a device application for Pocket PC 2003 and is written in C#. I am running .NET Framework 2.0, .NET Compact Framework 2.0 and OpenNETCF 2.0 beta. 2) I am running VS2005 version 8.0.50727 (RMT.050727-4200) 3) The project was originally upgraded from VS2003 about two months ago, but this warning started showing a week ago. 4) The warning started showing after I added localisation to the project.

• .NET Development how to check if two TCPClients are the same

  helo there again, its the networking newbie once more. LOL anyway, heres my question, i wanna know how to check if 2 tcpclients are just the same. so that i can determine that the client has connected more than once. and if the client has connected twice then the server will reject the second connection. thanks! JerberSoft wrote: well, thanks for the reply. i was exactly asking for a sample code. Suppose there are two connected clients... tcpClient1 and tcpClient2 then you can do this: IPEndPoint client1EndPoint = (IPEndPoint) tcpClient1 .Client.RemoteEndPoint; IPAddress client1IP = client1EndPoint.IPAddress; Do the same for other and then compare both IP Address if they are same or not, if they bo ...Show All

• Visual Studio Which Files in Source Code Control

  I am using SVN for my source code control as not everyone where I work has access to VSS. The benefits of VSS that I found was that it automatically chose which files to include under the source control. I am using TortoiseSVN and recently Ankh SVN as it is an addin. However, I can't work out which files should be versioned. Just like this guy here . When I open my VB solution I see the following: Test - My Project - AssemblyInfo.vb - modMain.vb - modWord.vb - frmMain.vb Now it obvious that the last 3 need to under code control. However, even though I have added Test.vbproj and Test.sln to the SCC, the top three don't appear to be under control. Which files should you put under control What about the extra directories that get created ...Show All

• SQL Server Let user choose column in custom component

  Hi, I want to recalculate some columns in a custom component, due to a formula using a single column as factor. What will be the best way to let the user choose the single column (factor) beneath the columns to work with. Is there a way to use customproperties other than strings. DropDowns for example. If so, do you know a tutorial oder code snippet Thanks Not sure at what level you are asking this question, are you writing your own UI, or using the built-in advanced UI There is a topic in Books Online about building component UIs. have a look at that to start with. To select a column you would call the CManagedComponentWrapper.SetUsageType method. The usage of CManagedComponentWrapper in ...Show All

• Visual Basic Executables as Project References.

  I have inherited a distributed application that has 4 servers and one client. 3 of the servers are also clients to one of the servers. The clients have the Server Executables added in the client's "Project Referrence". In particular, the client app has added a Reference to the executable of one the servers. The client app makes use of one of the classes declared in the Server's project. Moreover, this class has a method to add messages to a collection running on the server. Everytime I call this method from the client app a message is added to the collection that runs in the server. I don't understand why this is happening. Question: By using this Server's Class, does it mean that the client app is communicating to the ...Show All
