• Visual Studio breakpoints are disabled on a dll.

  Hi All, I am developing in c++ on visual 2005 My solution contains two projects: an executable and a dll. Sometimes ( like today :-(   ) breakpoints on the dll project are diabled and when I move the cursor to the breakpoint mark, I have the following message : " The breakpoint will not currently be hit. No symbols have been loaded for this document". Sometimes after rebuild or after I get a new version from the source safe it works but not today. Any Ideas   Thanks,             Udi. In the output window when you debug your application, do you see anything about your dll That the loaded path is incorrect or that no ...Show All

All the best. Thanks ReneeC, Any clues or suggestions how this could be done All the best. ...Show All

• SQL Server ExceptionHandling in T-SQL?

  Hi all, Is there any concept of exception handling in T-SQL while writing Stored Procedures, plz. help me with this issue. I'm using SQL Server 2000 Hello Trid, No, there is no structural error handling in 2000 so to speak. There are several ways to perform error handling in 2000, with the most common being to test the value of @@ERROR for a non-zero value, then send control to a handler lable for rollback etc. if (@@error <> 0) goto error_handler return (0) error_handler: if (@@trancount > 0) rollback tran return (-1) Cheers Rob ...Show All

• SQL Server Cumulative aggregation over time

  I want to do cumulative aggregation similar to "period to date", but not to a specific period in the past, but to the earliest record in the fact table. The problem is that I have 20 million accounts that I want to follow up on a daily basis, but they change rarely. After a year, perhaps half a million have changed. What I have done is to create a fact table that stores the balance when the account is opened, then only keeps track of the changes, so that when anyone deposits money a row is added with the increment. After a year that would give me about 20.5 million rows in the table. As an analyst I would like to enter a specific date, say 2005-08-20 and see the balance of all the accounts at that time. To do so, I simply need to ...Show All

• Smart Device Development Porting full framework GDI+ custom button to Compact Framework

  Is it impossible to port a full framework custom button like http://www.codeproject.com/cs/miscctrl/RoundButton_csharp.asp to the Compact Framework My modified round cornered button uses GraphicsPath which doesn't seem to exist in the compact framework. Porting a full GDI+ custom control to the .NET Compact Framework is possible but may be (due to limitation in .NET CF) a non trivial task. In some cases it is easier to rewrite some parts instead of porting the code. The entire painting code usually falls into this category. XrossOne Studio has a library with GDI+ support for Windows Mobile. This might help porting your component. ...Show All
