• Visual C# Difference between - 'static public' and 'public static'

  Hi all, I have noticed code here and there that put the static keyword in front of the method accessor, like, 'static public' is there a difference between 'public static' or are they the same Tryst Hi, all I try to summarize as following: Those are all the concept about accessibility modifiers and predefined attributes. They can be placed on types, fields and methods (including properties and events). Accessibility modifiers (also called access modifiers) indicate which types and members can be legally referenced from code. The predefined attributes fine-tune this accessibility and allow you to change a member's semantics. You can either put the accessibility modifiers or predefined attributes firs ...Show All

• .NET Development Delay in invoking webservice call

  hi, We are noticing the huge delay once we invoke the asynchronous call to web service to get the response back, not able to find the reason for the same so far. Is there way we can debug and find the root cause of this delay in invoking web service and getting the response from web service Thank You Ganga BTW, if the total time is about 40seconds, 6 extra seconds to transfer the request data and the response data (assuming the request is roughly the same size as the response) isn't entirely out of whack, depending on your network. ...Show All

• SQL Server IIS developer edition

  Well, just what the subject line says: Is there a developer version of IIS one can download If so, I can't find it. All I can find are the 180 day trials. Thanks! -Gary If you are running anything but Windows XP Home (or 95, 98, ME (the ones we don't talk about anymore)) you should have the option to install IIS from your installation media for free .

• SQL Server SQL2005 linked servers to DB2

  I'm currently using the IBMDA400 client access drivers for DB2 to create linked servers on SQL2005 Std. The DB2 server version is: V5R4M0. The error that I receive when I issue a select query using the linked server is shown below. The query works fine within SQL 2000 Std. Msg 7399, Level 16, State 1, Line 1 The OLE DB provider "IBMDA400" for linked server "LNKDSRVR" reported an error. Access denied. Msg 7301, Level 16, State 2, Line 1 Cannot obtain the required interface ("IID_IDBCreateCommand") from OLE DB provider "IBMDA400" for linked server "LNKDSRVR".

• Visual Studio Tools for Office Are VSTO 2005 Outlook add-ins thread-safe?

  During the start-up routine in ThisApplication I make a call to a web service on a secondary thread. Based on the results of the web service, I must enable certain CommandBarControls. Is this safe to do from a secondary thread If not, how would I invoke it on the Outlook UI thread after the web service returns. VSTO by its design is thread safe, but anything one programs may not. One can execute multiple threads from an add-in. The only issue arises is when GUI updates or other specific actions have to be done....those can only be done on the main thread. Just like in a winform with threads one has to invoke back to main thread to do any such processing. In my experiance, I had a VSTO Excel App where the a ...Show All

• SQL Server Vertical Database Design

  What kind of luck have you guys had with vertical database design I'm working with a front end developer who wishes to use a vertical design for Items and item attributes, as the client appears to have a firm requirement that new attributes can be added at any time. the developer has what I am begining to think of as "magic code" for importing the data into the tables. He's apparently going to write this in .NET, and plans for it to know the data type (varchar, etc.) when importing it - and also allow for the script to dynamically add attributes. THis sounds fun, however, the more stuff we get, the worse the database will perform, I'm thinking - only it will be exponentially slower than a conventional design. In addi ...Show All

• Windows Forms How do I programmatically add checkboxes to a form at runtime

  The problem i'm having is programmatically adding checkboxes to the form. So far I have this code which works: Checkbox cbk = new Checkbox(); cbk.Location = new Point( 10, 10 ); cbk.Text = "I was created at runtime"; this.Controls.Add( cbk ); But I need to have the checkbox name generated by the database, I am unable to figure out how to assign a value from a SQLDataReader to be the name of the checkbox, my attempt below will not work (just replacing the hard coded name with the value from the db): while (reader.Read()) {   CheckBox reader[1].ToString() = new CheckBox (); reader[1].ToString().Location = new Point (10, 10); reader[1].ToString().Text = "I was created at runtime" ; this .C ...Show All
