• Visual C# Annoying error list - bug ??

      Hi,     I have been using the Visual studio 2005 Profesional IDE for a while now and I notice that each time i type out something like         " this . myObjectReference."   the error list pops up showing ' identifier expected ' and kills the intellisense window. (I set the bottom window to auto-hide to have a bigger code area). This happens the moment i press the dot affter myObjectReference  Is this a bug ...,    Regards tribal  Actually this is happening only when I modify code in the InitializeComponent method of the windows form. I know I shouldnt be doing this but I have always ...Show All

• Visual C++ serialPort.Read

  I have been playing around with the serial port class for about a week and have managed to learn a small number of different ways to read the data in and then act upon it. I have just successfully written code to use the serialPort ->ReadByte() method. My problem with this method is that no matter how large (number of bytes) the data is, it will only read one byte at a time when data is received. I want to read a small data packet which contains three characters. I have attempted to use the serialPort->Read() method, but I keep getting a null error. My code is: private : System::Void serialPort1_DataReceived(System::Object^ sender, System::IO::Ports::SerialDataReceivedEventArgs^ e) { int offset = 0; int count ...Show All

• Internet Explorer Development IInputObject no longer called in IE7?

  Has the behavior around IInputObject changed for IE7 We're doing the standard: 1. On SetSite(), get the IID_IInputObjectSite from the IUnknown parameter. 2. When one of our UI Windows gets or looses focus, call IInputObjectSite::OnFocusChangeIS() It all appears to work; however, we never see callbacks on our IInputObject methods: UIActivateIO, HasFocusIO, TranslateAcceleratorIO. Well, that's not completely true. We see a callback on IInputObject:: UIActivateIO(FALSE..) when a second, different toolbar calls IInputObjectSite::OnFocusChangeIS(FALSE), but that's the only time (we see it in the stack crawl). Is this behavior different from IE6 This bandobject needs these calls to do it's UI correctly. It's more complex than a simple editbox ...Show All

• Visual Basic printing a hard copy

  So i have an app that has text boxes, labels, and comboboxes. the program populates a database. What i need to do now is Print a hard copy of the data (from a command button on the form) and send an email to someone (through Outlook).. Can anyone point me in the right direction on how to do this Thanks. Ian. the print dialog class, as it states in the documentation, Lets the user choose which sections of a document to print and what printer to print it to. This is your call, would be good user interaction for the user to select what printer they wish to print to for example the printdocument class is the main class that does the print processing job, you have to code in the printpage event, on what ...Show All

• Windows Forms Combobox items Adding!!

  Hii, I am using c# windows application: I have two arrays of strings one named textArray and the other is valueArray. I want at runtime to display the elements of the textArray in the combobox while the items value is added from valueArray: e.g say one item is US Dollar and its value is USD.   Thanks   yes you could but would be ineffecient I would think, well, depending on where your datasource is (is it from a database or are you creating it manually ) you can do what you have suggested but if its not from a database, then I would highly suggest you use the HashTable approach :-) ...Show All

• Windows Forms Calling a Menu Option thru code

  I have an application having a Menu with the following options. File -> a) New b) Open c) Close There is a button on the form. My need is when I click on the button, the close option is to be activated. You should have an event hander for the "Close" menu item. Just let the button's Click event handler call the menu item event handler. For example: private void closeToolStripMenuItem_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) { this.Close(); } private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) { closeToolStripMenuItem_Click(sender, e); } ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Dynamic CubeMap, How?

  Hi, Is there a fast way to update the textures of a cube map Currently I'm rendering out the six directions and calling TextureCube.SetData to copy the render target contents across. This isn't particularly nice but I haven't found any other way to over come this. The only other alternative I can think of is to completely scrap using TextureCubes and use a list of bog standard Texture2Ds and a 'fancy' shader. Cheers, Tim Yeah. What's your application Shadowmaps for point lights Environment maps Some other lighting use Lots of conventional wisdom says that dual-paraboloid mapping is impractical, but I beg to differ (depending on your requirements, including the particular rendering use, and als ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista How to call webservices in a workflow in an asynchronous way
