• Visual Studio Team System Adding Objects to my solution

  I have created a new solution, and have a Data Connection open in Server Explorer, and can see a small DB where I created a few SP's, tables, etc, and I want to add the db objects to my solution, then have my solution link up with VSS. Cannot figure out how to do it. I thought I would script using SSMS and add to VSS that way and then somehow get project to work - but even SSMS doesn't seem to offer scripting objects to individual files anymore. This might have been the wrong approach anyhow. How can I get my DB objects in my project then get VSS to line up with them Hi Joe, I am not too sure on your question but hopefully the following will give you some pointers: 1. If you have create a ...Show All

• Visual C++ C++/CLI C++ Interop and FxCop/Code-Analysis warning CA2122

  I've purposely been ignoring a CA2122 warning in some C++ interop code I've been working on for quite some time.  I've just recently had the cycles to investigate the warning  The warning message is as follows Warning CA2122 : Microsoft.Security : MyClass.Method():Void calls into Marshal.GetExceptionPointers():IntPtr which has a LinkDemand. By making this call, Marshal.GetExceptionPointers():IntPtr is indirectly exposed to user code. Review the following call stack that might expose a way to circumvent security protection: ->System.Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal.GetExceptionPointers : IntPtr ->MyClass.Method : Void ... MyClass is a managed class where Method calls a native static (for readable illustration purp ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System recording metrics from a server sitting on another domain

  I'm sure someone has tried to do this already, but I'm still having problems getting this to work. I'm launching my loadtest from my PC sitting on one domain against a server sitting on another domain. All my webtests run fine but when I try to run a load test and attempt to record metrics from the server, there is an uncharacteristically long delay (maybe 45 seconds) before the load test kicks off and it runs...but it doesn't record metrics from the server computer. Its as if it practically ignores the fact that in the run settings I've added the server computer (visa viz. Run Settings-->Manage Counter Sets) but it doesn't tell me/warn me something is amiss. I've tried DomainName\ServerName and I've tried just ServerName as the ...Show All

• .NET Development How do I set mouse cursor across applications (globally)

  I need to set the mouse cursor until a certain method is complete. The cursor should be the same for the whole OS, ie: even if the user hovers over other windows. SetCursor API doesn't seem to be doing anything. Thanks ahmedilyas wrote: to select a window an application Window if you want to select an application Window and active it, use the FindWindow and SetForegroundWindow API's: http://www.pinvoke.net/default.aspx/user32/SetForegroundWindow.html http://www.pinvoke.net/default.aspx/user32/FindWindow.html Yeah sorry maybe I failed to mention that I have managed to get the app working 100%, except that I thought it would be better looking if it had a cursor to select the window with.

• Visual Studio Express Editions "Name 'X509Certificate2UI' is not declared" error

  I'm trying to work with a sample of code from MSDN. One of the lines from the code is: Dim collection As X509Certificate2Collection = X509Certificate2UI.SelectFromCollection(fcollection, "Select an X509 Certificate" , "Choose a certificate to examine." , X509SelectionFlag.SingleSelection) VBEE is complaining about X509Certificate2UI and X509SelectionFlag. I've imported " System.Security.Cryptography.X509Certificates", which defines these names. I've used the Object Browser to check that they are there. However, Intellisense doesn't list them if I try to type it manually to see what is available, and I can't get the code to build. --Philip That w ...Show All

• Visual C++ _findfirst, _findnext and _stat problem

  Hi, One part of my application opens up a set of files using _findfirst, _findnext and _stat to see their current date using VC++ 2005. This code has been working fine and noone had any problems. However now I got a request from a user saying some of his files were dated year 1617 and that the application crashed. The crash address indicates that it happens within the CRT code of these functions but due to the circumstances I don't know (yet) which of them. The exception code given is 0xc000000d. For now the user removed the broken files and everything went back to a working state. I however tried to see if I used the functions in a wrong way and did not use the right error returncodes. However after verifying by documentation eve ...Show All
