• Visual Studio Team System TSQL Debugger is not working after installing "VSTS - Database professionals"

  Hi, After I have installed VSTS - Database professionals CTP5 I have found that TSQL debugger is not working any more. When I put breakpoint into the stored procedure and do "Step into Stored Procedure" the break point became disabled and the message is "The breakpoint will not currently be hit. Unable to bind SQL breakpoint at this time. Object containing the breakpoint not loaded." I'm absolutely sure that this was working normally before the installation of the CTP5. I'm guessing that something was done to the security settings by the installation package. I hope it is fixable. I'm running VS2005 and SQL Server 2005 Developer eddition and now SQL 2005 Express edition as second instance. CLR Stored p ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Managed Code samples for WMP11

  The WMP11 SDK contains a folder in 'WMP 11 SDK\WMFSDK11\samples\managed' which has some C# sample code for a Tag Editor. I have been trying to port the C# code to vb.net 2005 express. Unfortunatly for me I am new to VB.net and don't really know a lot about C#. Does anyone know of a successful port of that code. Thank you for your reply. No, I have not yet got it completely converted. Every C# to VB.net converter I have tried chokes on the code. I need it in VB.net because I don't know enough about C# to work with it. I'll keep trying. ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Hosting xbap in a non-asp.net web site?

  Since it's a client technology, it seems viable that a xbap could be host in a non-asp.net (such as FreeBSD host)web site only if I added the MIME types. Is this true How can I do this Thanks! It seems like .exe also has to be added as a mime type on the server Otherwise I get: APPLICATION SUMMARY * Online only application. * Browser-hosted application.

• Visual Studio Is <exclude> now supported and--if so--could you demonstrate its use?

  I know there have been several questions about support for the <exclude> tag, but I'm having trouble figuring out whether the latest Sandcastle release now supports it. If so, could someone provide an example of how to use it I'd like to exclude items at the member/method and at the class level. For classes, would I need to do the following public class foo: base_foo { /// <summary> /// <exclude /> /// Constructor for foo /// </summary> public foo(string message) : base(message) { } } Or am I getting the syntax wrong Much obliged!

• Visual Studio Express Editions Copy, Cut and Paste Functions in VS2005

  Hello-- I am trying to implement the copy, cut and paste functions in my program. However, it does not appear that Visual Studio 2005 supports getting the selected text by using the ActiveControl object like VB.NET 2003 did.

• Software Development for Windows Vista Error when NOT using DependencyProperty but a "normal" type variable

  Hello, l et me explain my situation: I created a (sequential) workflow which contains a private variable defined in code-behind. This variable is filled when a new workflow instance is created, using the "namedArgumentValues" property of the "CreateWorkflow" method. The workflow uses the SqlWorkflowPersistenceService (with the "UnloadOnIdle" property set to "True") to make sure no information can get lost. When that private variable is defined as a "DependencyProperty" (which registers a type "TestApp.Document"), my workflow works just fine...even after a reboot! When the workflow is retrieved from the persistence store, the private variable is still filled. To test some ...Show All

• .NET Development Connect to many servers quickly (C#)

  Hi everyone, I'm making a program that will run in the background on many computers in a LAN and will listen for a signal from one master client program. My problem is that I don't know how to get the master program to quickly compile a list of all the computers that are online on the subnet, and then open multiple connections to all of the online computers. Thus, in one sentence form, the two questions are: 1. How can I compile a list, quickly, of all the computers online on the same subnet the computer doing the searching is on 2. How do I open and maintain connections to multiple "servers" at once, so that they are ready and waiting to receive data Thanks in advance. 1. How can I compile a ...Show All

• .NET Development Check how many references there are to an object

  Hi! I am writing a .NET Compact Framework application, which loads a certain number of controls in a row and displays them to the user (first control A gets loaded and displayed full screen, then control A is replaced with control B, B is replaced with C and so on, but only one control is loaded at a time and each control will also be used only one time). Writing this application for a memory constrained environment (Pocket PC) I added a finalizer to a few controls to see if they got disposed properly, yet they didn't. So I wonder if there is a way to track the number of references to an object so that I can find out what keeps these controls from being collected. There is no way to find this information in .NET; even the garbage coll ...Show All

• .NET Development Missing DWMAPI.dll causes problem with COM interop in c#

  I have recently installed IE7, and am now experiencing a problem with COM interop in one of my c# projects. It seems that there is a dependency on a dll called DWMAPI.dll from the COM dll. I have read a bunch of posts about similar problems, and it seems this dll comes with Vista, but is missing on XP machines. For some reason, installing IE7 makes it become a dependency for things like .NET interop. The only solution I have been able to find in the forums and posts is to uninstall IE7. Microsoft has not yet posted anything that I could find in regards to this issue. Does anyone know something I don't Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks, Dan I sure would like to understand what you saying her ...Show All
