• Software Development for Windows Vista Heap Corruption on Vista

  Hi, I have ported my application on VS 2005 and built it. Now I am facing unique issue. When I run my application on a AMD machine loaded with Vista 0S I get heap corruption related assert. The exact message is: "HEAP CORRUPTION DETECTED after normal block. CRT detected that the applicaton wrote of memory after the end of heap buffer" When I run the same application on Intel machine loaded with Vista OS I dont face any problems. What could be the reason Anyone else facing the same kind of problem. I am also facing few other issues in my application which are very specific to AMD Vista machines. This forces me to think that whether AMD is ready for Vista or vice versa Bye Anmol ...Show All

• Visual C++ Fastest way to convert native array to generic List?

  I am writing managed wrappers to native functions (in order to be available to other .NET languages such as C# or VB.NET) and I am running into a performance problem. The interface to the native function looks something like: native_function(short *buffer, int &bufferLength); What it does is return an array (native) of shorts and the number of elements in the array. Now, I want the managed wrapper to have the following interface: wrapped_function(List<short> ^%buffer) { // Reserve enough space for the buffer short nBuffer[16000]; int buffLength = 0; // Call native function to fill buffer with data native_function(nBuffer, buffLength); // Convert returned value ...Show All

• Windows Forms How do I hide the form title text?

  Hey! I was wondering if anyone would be able to tell me how to hide the forms title text but still have it show in the taskbar I still want to have a ControlBox so that the user may close the application. Same idea as Windows Explorer in Vista. Any help that can be given will be greatly appreciated! :) That is exactly what I posted. The Nothing keyword is equivalent to saying its value is not yet set, or null.  Which, in return, has the same effect of  "". Making the text property blank should not effect the ShowInTaskBar property either. Now that you have been more clear also, the Text property of a form is bound to both the forms title and taskbar title.  I do not believe that the e ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Using jscript as code-behind with XAML
