• .NET Development Windows halts loop excecution

  I hope this question is in the correct forum. Here is my problem. I have a generic while loop that is repeatedly calling a function. This function handles receives in socket communications. The problem is that windows will stop executing this loop. All of a sudden it will just pause. Once you force a refresh of the form that contains this loop (by minimize/restore, etc), the loop will start executing again and will never pause again. Initially, I thought it may have something to do with the socket communications. So, I replaced the socket function with just incrementing and displaying a variable. Sure enough, the display would start counting up. All of a sudden, it would pause. As soon as the form is refreshed it would start counting again ...Show All

• SQL Server SQL Server 7.0 shows a suspect database after attaching it in SSME?

  Hello, I have a database that resides in SQL Server 7.0 that I can attach in Microsoft's SQL Server Management Studio Express and I can see all the tables from the database in that program.

• SQL Server IIS and SQL Server 2005 Express Edition

  hi Currently have SQL Server 2005 Express Edition installed. Wanted to install reporting services, but wouldn't let me re no IIS as I only have Windows XP Home Edition. My question is therefore: Is there any way of installing IIS to allow me to install Reporting Services for SQL Server 2005 Express Edition Many thanks Tim Leicester, UK Thank you for your clear answer I see that if you do not install IIS before SQL Server, it's impossible to use reporting services. All i regreat is that Microsoft nowhere warns about that problem except at the beginning of the installation of SQL Server with a meagre warning. I hope that Microsoft will correct this absence in the documentation to a ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. 360 Deployment Issues

  Hello   I've downloaded the latest version of XNA: GSE, signed up to Creators Club, downloaded the launcher, created a key and entered it into GSE.  The 360 is sitting there waiting for a PC connection but the deployment just times out.   I've checked the subnet and they're both 255,255,255,0. It doesn't work whether it's wireless or wired. I can't ping it from the PC, it just times out. Got another pal to try pinging their 360 from their PC and they get a similar time out.   I've also made sure all the required ports are open, I think.  I'm not sure, we have a Belkin router and I've added the ports the docs say to add but I can't test whether they are actually open or not.   L ...Show All

• Visual Studio Code generation based on checked nodes within a treeview.

  All WizardPages I have seen as examples use textboxes from which GAT extracts argument values, although I need a different approach. In a WizardPage I have a treeview with dynamic filled items. I would like to create class files for every item that has been selected. Later on I also want to create class properties for every sub-item that has been selected. Lets only tacle the class generation, and so take a list of animals as an example: -Cat -Mouse -Horse -.... In the Wizard, the user can select one or more items by using checkboxes. So if they select a Cat and Horse it would generate the classes: Class Cat { // Todo: Code to write manually } and Class Mouse { // Todo: Code to write manually } -- Is it possible to create a class file ...Show All
