• Windows Forms BalloonTipShown, etc. events non-functional?

  I'm trying something quite simple, and I fail to get the BalloonTipShown event (or BalloonTipClicked or BalloonTipClosed).  Do I have to do something to enable these events, other than simply adding my handler to the event Here's the code, in short: m_NotifyIcon = new NotifyIcon(); (add a context menu, set visible = true, add an icon, add a double click handler) m_NotifyIcon.BalloonTipShown += delegate(object sender, EventArgs e) {                 balloonTipShown = true;             }; m_NotifyIcon.ShowBalloonTip(10000, "My Title", "My Text", ToolTipIcon.Warning); The balloon pops up and behaves as yo ...Show All

• Visual FoxPro gMinFilter

  Hello, I'm new here and with using FoxPro. I'm trying to modify an existing query from within my database. When I open the query it is asking me to locate the .dbc file. I located that with no problem but now it's asking me to "Enter the value for gMinFilter". Can anyone shed some light on what this means >> Any idea why I have to enter these parameters in every time I want to modify a query Look up Parameterized View in the help file. The reason is that the query is using a 'view' which is basically a query stored in the database. That view must have been defined with parameters (gMinFilter and gMaxFilter) and if they do not exist, VFP prompts you for the values. If you created the values before trying to run t ...Show All

• .NET Development xmlschema: conditional presence of an attribute

  In a XSD is there a way to define a rule that makes an attribute required based on a condition (another attribute has a specific value) Something like: "In case the attribute 'Target' has the value 'File' the Attribute 'Filename' has to be present in the current Element else the Atrribute 'Filename' is optional." Well the W3C XSD schema language has no instructions to generally specify the presence of one attribute based on the value of another attribute. The language however allows you to define types and to extend or restrict such types. For your particular example you could first define a type alike <xs:simpleType name="TargetType"> <xs:restriction base="xs:string"> <xs:enumeratio ...Show All

• Visual C# Differences in Integer Speeds

  As with the other thread, this concerns a C# application that performs extensive calculations. Some time ago, I tried to benchmark the performance of unsigned integers versus signed integers. Other languages seem to have faster unsigned operations, and processor architecture would support this. However, I had some bad experiences with unsigned integers causing problems when using them as indices for array access. Contrary to my expectations, unsigned integers had slightly slower performance than signed integers in the benchmark. This was when using the 1.1 Framework. My question: What is the ranking of integer speeds when compared to each other That is, which type has the best performance, which has the second best, etc. Does a UInt64 p ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Custom or third party project-types in Team System

  Hi, I ran into the following on CodePlex: I have a WiX project in my solution to create an MSI setup for my product. I am using Votive which adds an extra project type to VS. Codeplex does not accept this project. Is there any way to get this project in to the CodePlex repository Thanks Yes, I am adding (trying to) a Votive project as a part of a solution into TFS on CodePlex. The first time I tried this the message was someting like: "unknown project type" However, from then on whenever I add a Votive project to an existing tfs/CodePlex solution it just doesn't add it to source control. It is as if it remembered the unsuccesfull try that happened before... Any sugestions are welc ...Show All

  Hi everybody, I am using Visual Studio .NET 2003 and i am working on an pure MFC project.

• Visual C++ Transparent cursor problem when creating OpenGL context

  I'm running VS 2005. The application I develop for uses a "shaping tool" cursor at some points, replacing the cursor with a transparent bitmap. It does this by creating a bitmap, testing the colors of the bitmap to set the alpha values, then using CreateIconIndirect to create an HCURSOR, as seen below. This normally works correctly. However, we've observed that when both third party and our own add-ons to the software create an OpenGL context for on-screen and off-screen rendering, the cursor does not display as expected. Instead of displaying the entire cursor bitmap, it won't display anything larger than 61 pixels, in the x or y dimensions. Once the OpenGL context is destroyed, it goes back to working as it should.

• Software Development for Windows Vista under Vista, Studio 2005 is crashing only on somes solutions

  Hi, Since a couple of days, I encounter a strange behaviour under Studio 2005 C++. When I try to load somes previously created solutions, projects reloading perfectly but 1 or 2 seconds after items are displayed in the solution explorer, Studio crash. But strangely, all others solutions opens without any problem. I think the pb. come from Intellisense which is confused by some of my C/C++ files. But more strangley : I can't reproduce this bug on XP. So I guess that the problem come from the Vista + VS2005 combo . I'm rather irritated because, the trial period for Vista is very short, so I will not be able to test it anymore and report feedback. For now, disapointedly I switched back to XP. The bug occurs with the Express version of VS2005, ...Show All
