• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Getting Relationship Schema Data from CdmEntityType

  OK, So I'm using CdmEntityType to crawl a type, but I can't seem to find the relationships. Is there a simple way of getting the list of relationships within a given type Thanks! Mike There is no simple way to do this, since a same entity type could be re-used in various ways and the different instance of the entity type can take part in different relationships. I would love to know the use case for this scenario. There's a bunch of ways to do this, but the best way to do this would be to find out all the relationship types in the workspace and see if the one of the ends is same or is an ancestor (one of the types up its base class chain) of the given entity type. public static void FindRelationshipType( ...Show All

• SQL Server ForEachLoop and Object-Variable

  Hi there! I want to use a ForEachLoop. I've an object variable what i fill before going into the ForEachLoop. It contains 4 columns and in my testscenario it has two rows. In the ForEachLoop i want to set the current row values to 4 package variables (within package scope). So i set the Enumerater as "Foreach-ADO-Enumerator", the Ado-source-variable is my objectvariable (what contains the recordset), and the enumerator-configuration i set to "rows in all tables" ("rows in the first table" works with equal result).

• Visual Studio VSS 2005 Archive error

  I recently migrated our VSS to 2005 version from 6.0. I analyzed the data and fixed the errors and now there are no errors found. Now when I try to create an archive of our database, I get this error "Compression error:compression block may be corrupt". When I click Help button on this error dialog, there is no help found and I see it was looking for ERS_STR_COMPS_HDRCORRUPT. I could not find any documentation for this error. When I used the command line utility ssarc, I get the same error. I was installing VSS 2005 upgrade and so did not remove VSS 6.0 before installing 2005. Surprisingly, VSS 2005 did not ask to update current 6.0 installation. Both 6.0 and 2005 co-exist on my machine. I tried to use ssarc from VSS ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Fur Shading

  Hello, I've found an interesting tutorial on acheiving real-time furshading with HLSL, unfortunately the tutorial's examples are in C++, and using straight DirectX which I don't really understand that well. As such, I was hoping someone here might be able to convert one or more of the examples into something that is compatible with XNA. I'm sure that other programmers here could benefit from these examples being in C#, so if anyone can help please post any conversions you've made of this tutorial's examples, thankyou. The tutorial can be found at http://www.xbdev.net/directx3dx/specialX/Fur/index.php Cool, I hadn't really looked at the source code of the project (I currently don't have a C++ compiler so ...Show All

• Visual Basic "The operation could not be completed. Access denied"

  Hello people, I’m a really annoying issue with VS Express, and I can’t seem to find any way around it. If I load a project in VS and press F5, the build is successful and the program runs, but only ONE time! If run my program again, I get the following message: "The operation could not be completed. Access denied". However if I skip debugging by pressing CTRL+F5, everything works fine. If I restart VS, I can use F5 once again, but still only one time, then another restart is required. Below is the output from the build. To me it looks like the build process completes every time, and that it is the debugging that for some reason gives me this access denied. I earlier had an evaluation version of VS Pro, with the exa ...Show All

• Silverlight (formerly WPF/E) Store image object in a javascript object

  I currently have an application that creates an image object in pure javascript using the following code: this._image = new Image(); $addHandler(this._image, 'load', Function.createDelegate(this, this._onLoad)); this._image.src = url; The neat thing about this is that I can wait with putting the image element into the HTML document until the browser actually has it loaded. So basically my onLoad function just add's it to the DOM and hides a progress indicator: $get('images').appendChild(this._image); this._image.style.height = "50px"; this._image.style.width = "50px"; $get('progressIndicator').style.display = "none"; Now, I want to do the exact same thing using XAML, but as far as I can see, you j ...Show All
