• .NET Development CAS declarative security

  How come it is not possible for an otherwise fully trusted assembly to refuse some permissions (declaratively) without loosing it's full trust status Not quite: When IIS5.0 tries to load my SOAP service (if I, say, rebuild the assembly that implements the soap service after having added just 1 of the refusal-options and have IE7 look up the corresponding URL - eg http://localhost/MyWebService/MyPage.ashx ) the above exception is thrown before I can get my hands on a breakpoint inside my own code. I assume it happens as aspnet_wp.exe tries to load the appdomain for my soap service. I guess that one of the assemblies that IIS5.0 uses is partially trusted (even though, as far as I can tell, both System.Web.dll and System.dll are full ...Show All

  Now go register!!   Actual contest details to come the week of Feb 5th Plese, Someone at Microsoft.... the drembuildplay site, even though the competition should be global, does not allow non-US people to register.

• Visual Basic Problem saving graphics to a file

  Hi, I have an application in which the PaintEvent calls up a procedure to get data from four Sql tables, and produce drawings. This part of the app works fine. I am now trying to copy these drawing one at a time to a Bitmap file, and not having much success. I've omitted the the Sql statement sections in the following code as they are not the problem.

• Visual Studio View Pending Checkins

  I am creating a custom source control.Is it possible to populate and display the View Pending Checkins window in the Visual Studio with my custom source control If yes, hw do i do it pls help. You can show the View Pending Checkins window using DTE.ExecuteCommand("View.PendingCheckins"). About populating it, I think it is done automatically by VS, assuming that you are building a Source Code Control (SCC) provider compliant with VS. The VS 2005 SDK has documentation about this subject, and if I remember correctly there were two approaches, one simple and other more complex. ...Show All

• Visual C# DateTime Support Native to Managed to SQLServer with COM Interop

  Hi Everyone: I am currently looking at an issue involving the best way to handle dates. I am principally using DateTime fields as fields defined in record structures defined within managed VC# code and exposed to COM Interop. Systems Involved: Legacy Native VC++ 6.0 VC# .NET 2005 SQL Server 2005. Issue: What is the best way to handle dates moving between native code, managed code and SQL Server. Facts: All three system have separate and/or different ways of handling dates and times. The min value for a date-time field in all three systems is different by-Microsoft-design. The highest common denominator for date-time min value is that used by native code. (December 30th, 1899 12:00:00 AM) Passing a ...Show All

• SQL Server share variable with child

  How a parent package can share its variables with child when calling it using Execute Package Task Andy Leonard wrote: Hi Fahad, Phil is correct. A couple things to note: the variable shared between the parent and child packages must have the same name and data type. Hope this helps, Andy They shouldn't need the same name, is my understanding, as you choose the "value" parameter of the variable you'd like to map to. ...Show All

  How hard is it for a begginger with no experience in programing and low math skills to make a working game on XNA Is it even possible How much does it take to learn C#, and how intuitive is it My first choice of program to use would be the Torque Engine, because it was implemented well in Marble Blast Ultra on Xbox Live Arcade.

• Internet Explorer Development IE7 displays my xml/xslt page differently from IE6

  Hi, I have a Web application that works as follows: - An ASP.net page generates an XML string linked to an XSLT stylesheet and sends it to Internet Explorer. - Internet Explorer applies the stylesheet and displays the resulting HTML page in the browser. Everything worked great with IE6 and most of this still works fine in IE7 except for one page. In that page, I return an XML string similar to the following: 1 < xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" > 2 < xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="styles/volumetryAdmin.xslt" > 3 <ifinance xmlns="urn:ifinance" auth="0" lang="fr" today="20061109"> 4 <precomps> 5 <precomp id="5& ...Show All

• Architecture Server getting intimation of disconnection while file is downloaded from client side

  I have a problem, There is a file being transferred to an .Net application via HTTP protocol by a J2EE web application. Now I want to trap the client disconnection event at Server Side if Download fails from client side. I have thought some approaches but not fully satisfied with those: 1. Just open a separate thread from client that will tell the server periodically that client is alive, till file gets transferred. 2. Server should ping the client periodically, if client is available, but this would be a violation of HTTP protocol. In case 1 ,  I would have to make a service or exceutable on client side which i would like to attempt as the last case. I would like client to be just using webbrowser.
