• Visual Studio From build excluded project should be build via command line

  Hi, how is it possible to build a project via command line if i have excluded this project from build in my solution. My command line looks like .. "msbuild ResolutionSystemPlugIn.sln /t:OptimizationServiceTest:rebuild /p:Configuration=Debug" The build terminated because it's not selected for build in my solution. But i does not want to activate the project in my solution. I only want to build this project via command line. And i can't build the single project because the project has multiple dependencys in my solution. Dirk Adrigo, You're quite right. I misread the original posting to mean that it /wasn't/ being excluded at the command line. I agree, this doesn't se ...Show All

• Windows Live Developer Forums Article: Redesign the Virtual Earth Dashboard

  Hey guys, I just put together what i hope is a really good reference for anyone wanting to change the look and feel of the V4 virtual earth dashboard. http://www.soulsolutions.com.au/Articles/VEDashboardStyles/tabid/101/Default.aspx Let me know if I'm missing anything. John. Sorry Crafty, I meant to answer your question but was so blown away by John's excellent page I forgot.

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Working with Viewport3D

  Hello, I have got some questions about working with a Viewport3D. 1)How to develop a method which converts the view of the Viewport3D to an image file and saves it on the hard disk 2) I have got some spheres in the Viewport3D. How programically make them visible or hidden 3) I want to add some text to the Viewport, for example, on the one of the spheres there could be written "Earth". This sign should always have the same size (it shouldn't scale while I am scaling the spheres), it shouldn't rotate while I am rotating the other content of the Viewport3D. How it can be done 4) If I change the view which appears in a Viewport3D (for egxample, rotate a model or zoom in/out), is it possible to save ...Show All

• .NET Development Validation of webservices

  Hello everyone! I'm new to web services and I have a question I hope somebody can help me with! I developed a new web service to deal with my Car hire software and made several procedures that accept parameters. My question is, how do I determine that the parameter I have in the procedure which is of string type, will accept only six characters Of course this is just an example. In general, how do I validate my procedures' parameters Thank you! You just do it in the same way as if the method weren't a web method, e.g. [WebMethod] public void MyMethod(string s) { if (s == null || s.Length != 6) { throw new ArgumentException("Must be 6 characters."); } // etc. } Depending on the validation requirements yo ...Show All

• Visual FoxPro Copy and Past function under VFP9

  I found the Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V function under VFP9 is not working on the users' end. Sometimes, I found the same problem on my PC. What seems to be the problem Copy and Paste works in VFP. What may not at times are the shortcuts you mentioned (CTRL+C and CTRL+V) as they have to be enabled in the main menu. If you disable the Edit menu in your app, then these shortcuts will not be availabe to the program.  See: System Menu Names in Help: _MSM_EDIT _MED_CUT _MED_COPY _MED_PASTE http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp url=/library/en-us/dv_foxhelp9/html/071a0d58-c66e-4a8b-8080-e3a130f2e435.asp frame=true   ...Show All

• .NET Development Bug in C# .NET System.Messaging?

  Hi all, Not sure if this is the right area to post this, but I'm running the following code in a Windows Service. QueuePath = ".\\BroadcastManager" ; if ( MessageQueue .Exists(QueuePath)) BroadcastManagerQueue = new MessageQueue (QueuePath); else BroadcastManagerQueue = MessageQueue .Create(QueuePath); This code throws an error on the MessageQueue.Create. Message is" A queue with the same path name already exists." If the queue exists it should never get to that statement. The application is single threaded so no other threads are interfering with the QueuePath variables or MSMQs. Any idea if this is a bug in System.Messaging or why this is occuring Regards, ...Show All

• Visual Basic Using panel in a custom control

  For my project I'm designing a custom control. It contains a title (as a link), a checkbox and a panel. When the title is clicked, the control is minimized to just one line, only displaying the title and the checkbox. When clicked again, the control resizes to its original size, also displaying the panel and its contents. My problem is: when I build this control, add it to a form and try to add controls onto the panel, these controls are not on the panel, but on the form. When the panel is hidden, the controls remain visible. But off course these controls should also hide, when the panel is hidden. Currently I am using Visual Basic .NET 2003, while 2005 is not supplied by the company I work for. Wellproc, ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Dynamic assignment of data type within a structure...?

  I'm wondering if there is a way to assign a datatype to a variable within a structure dynamically at runtime.  For example: Structure test Dim a as Integer End Structure Is there a way to make variable "a" dynamic at runtime, so that it could be "as Single", or "as Byte" based on conditions at runtime   Meaning, each instance of the structure may have variable "a", but representing a different data type...  If not, any suggestions on a way to implement something like this     If your wanting to your arrays to allow any type and allow a mixture of types or changed then using object is an approach. If you arrays are going to be a fixed type for a given structure, then generics ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Integration with MSBuild

  Can I use the output from a database project in conjunction with a web setup project that will create the database for an ASP.NET application I need to specify the database name and login details at install time. At present, using ADO.NET, I can’t just call one script to install the database as with ADO.NET, and am restricted to one SQL statement per method call. Any info/links regarding installing databases as part of an ASP.NET deployment would be gratefully received. Thanks, Ben.

• Windows Forms Binding to DropDownList ComboBox Problem

  I have created an object data source from a class in my business logic layer in this case the class is BLPerson . I drop this data source onto a form in detail mode and in the form load event set the blPersonBindingSource.DataSource to an instance of BLPerson . All works fine in that the text and comboboxes are set to the attributes of the BLPerson instance as expected. If however I set any of comboboxes to be of type DropDownList then they remain blank and the databinding doesn't work. Is there a way to successfully bind to DropDownList ComboBoxes Uhmmm.... all the combobox elements are bound to the same dataset item ChargeCode. I'm really puzzled by this since I thought the combobox was ...Show All
