• Visual C# Hide Console Window in C# Console Application

  Hi, How can I hide the console window in my Console Application project What worked for me was - Create a Windows Application in Visual Studio. Inside of the Program.cs instead of running a windows application/Form - instead just instantiate your class there. Normally after creating a Windows Application in VS your main method in the Program.cs file will look something like this: Application .EnableVisualStyles(); Application .SetCompatibleTextRenderingDefault( false ); Application .Run( new Form1()); I comment out that and in its place I put my class that I want to instantiate and run - like this: //Application.EnableVisualStyles(); //Application.S ...Show All

• Audio and Video Development Regarding Set Property and Unset Property

  Hi there My current understanding is : if any style attribute is set using script then it gets locked on that particular element ...till it is unlocked on that particular element....ie the style attributes are locked at element level. whereas for state attributes things are different. a) state:focused can be locked using one element and unlocked using other element(even that belonging to a different application) b) state : enabled and state:value can be locked by one element and unlocked using other element belonging to same application i.e. they are locked at application level. I have seen behaviour a). About b) I am not sure. Do these i.e. a) and b) look right to ya all. (a) is correct but (b) is ...Show All

• Visual Studio September CTP: Display of <param> and <paramref>

  Here are a couple observations about the way Sandcastle handles the <param> and <paramref> tags: ? In the VS2005 help style, the type is displayed next to the parameter in a rather odd manner. For example, /// <param name="data">Data passed in by the client.</param> is displayed as data System.Object Data passed in by the client. It would be nice if the type (in this case System.Object) was either: (1) not displayed; (2) displayed in the same manner as the Prototype help style; or (3) displayed in a different font. In the MSDN library help, the type is not displayed. ? In the Prototype help style, <paramref> elements are not rendered using a different font. I like the VS2005 s ...Show All

• .NET Development Problem retrieving Serialized Data

  Actually, I'm serializing a Class (marked with [Serializable()] attribute) with a BinaryFormatter, but the problem is, when the thread that serializes the object is disposed I can not retrieve the Serialized data !! ... But right after Serialization I can simply retrieve the serialized graph !! ... And even when the program is disposed and spawned again, In case of calling BinaryFormatter.Deserialize(stream serializationStream) I'll get an instance of the serialized object but all of the properties are nulled !! ... I'm sure that I'm missing something ... !! Here's the Implantation of the BinaryFormatter : public static System.Runtime.Serialization.Formatters.Binary.

• .NET Development Data View Controls...?

  HI, Data Controls in ASP like [GridView,FormView,DetailView] display data from a database, SQL Server or Access, they display all the data in a tabuler format. If we want to access any specific row or cell from a database, how can it will be accomplished As I have a little knowledge in Classic ASP, we use Recordsets & to access data we do like rs(0) , rs(1) & rs(i) Well, now you will have to use ADO.NET..... It is quite similar to classic ASP.... for example: private static void ReadOrderData( string connectionString) { string queryString = "SELECT OrderID, CustomerID FROM dbo.Orders;"; using (SqlConnection connection = new SqlConnection( connectionString)) { SqlCommand co ...Show All

• Visual C# Slow panel enable / disable

  Hello, I have a panel with 3 groupbox's - groupbox 1 contains: 17 Labels and 12 Textbox's - groupbox 2 contains: 14 Labels, 1 Combobox and 13 Textbox's - groupbox 3 contains: 4 Labels and 4 Textbox's I need to enable/disable the panel so that all the input controls are enabled/disabled. Well this takes a lot of time, you can see that the disable starts from the top till the bottom. With enable i have the same effect. Is there a way to speed this up Maybe my method that I use is not the best, can you suggest me another Thanks. the 3 groupbox are the controls on the panel. So if i call panel.enable = false, all the controls on that panel will be disabled, in this case the 3 groupbox's with ...Show All

• .NET Development Problem serialising interface arrays with BinaryFormatter.

  I couldn't find any discussion of this problem anywhere on the tubes, so: If I use BinaryFormatter to serialise an array of an interface references, for example IDisposable[], any members that are value types will not be deserialised properly. The problem only seems to occur with interfaces that are defined in another assembly. Attached is an example program to demonstrate the problem. The final call to Deserialize() will fail. The interface doesn't have to be IDisposable, it can be any interface in another assembly, I just used that one to make the example simpler. I don't have a good workaround, unfortunately, since I can't seem to create a surrogate for an array type. Seems pretty fundamental. Has anyone else noticed this probl ...Show All

• SQL Server partitioned views Explain Plan

  Hello I created a partitioned view on my database db1 and It comes from the UNION ALL of 2 tables (I split 1 very big table in 2 smaller tables... Horizontal partition!!) that are on the same db1. When I query them I receive in the EXECUTION PLAN an Item called CONCATENATION of both input tables, This seems to be more expensive than using only one big table so partitioning the big one gets none sense.. I would like to know if this is normal and If I'm doing well with partitioning.
