• Visual C++ CWinThread derived objects built under only RELEASE, ported to VC++ version 8 don't use all of the CPUs

  I recently ported a "multi-thread" application from v7.1 to v8 2005 and built both a "debug" and "release" versions. The "debug" version runs good with no problems. However, the "release" version does not run computation threads very well. CWinThread derived objects are created and run (this is "release" builds only), but the Windows CPU monitor says that only (around) 50% of the resources are used. This is with both multi-processor and single-processor, multi-core machines. The application always used 100% of CPU resources on the v7.1 builds (both debug and release) when 2 or more threads are created, and 50% when only one thread is created (as expected). I could not find a ...Show All

• Visual Studio Minmum Visual Studio 2005 Version to use Addins?

  Hello everybody, I've been searching for information whether there is a minimum version of Visual Studio 2005 needed to use Addins (not to build, just to load and use) for quite a time now but didn't find anything. So, are there any restrictions I recognized that the Express Editions for example don't have the Addin Manager (or at least I couldn't find it in C++ Express). If there is a minimum Version, how can I check for its existence in my setup project Thanks for help, Marco Thanks Dmitry, but unfortunately, I'm not using WiX and don't really want to migrate my setup. Is there any way to check for VS2005 Standard in a regular MS Setup Project Marco ...Show All

• Windows Forms problem with MHT file has been created from local HTML files

  Hi, I have a problem with file MHT reading. I have stored the internet site with IE7 as "Webpage, complete (*.htm, *.html)". It store this site at my computer with all images in some external files. After that I have stored this html and image collection as "Web Archive (*.mht)". The result is complete MHT file with all images inside. Then I have deleted old *.html and *.gif files and work with MHT file only. I can open this MHT file with IE7 without problem - all images are OK. Now I try to read this MHT file with class System.Windows.Forms. WebBrowser. this .webBrowser1 = new System.Windows.Forms.

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Starting work on my GUI system

  Well, I've hit a wall with my game's development, and since there was no GUI with XNA 1.0, I've decided to go ahead and make my own GUI system. I implemented a lot of mechanics for my game, but I need greater interaction to proceed development in a sane manner. So far I've just implemented the text drawing stuff from scratch. It uses only monospace fonts generated with BMFontGenerator without using the generated .xml file. It's decidedly minimal to use only monospace fonts, but keep in mind two things - 1) my particular game doesn't require anything more robust than monospace fonts and 2) a game's engine should be designed around the game's specifc requirements. Otherwise you're scope creepin. I remind myself constantly not to let cool ...Show All

• Windows Forms Multi-language input validation

  Lets say that I want to create an input validator function for a text box: I want to only allow text in any language (unicode). This means that symbols like'!;, ' and all other symbols wouldn't be allowed. Only regular charachters in any language.. How can I do that Thanks You could try the following: private void textBox1_KeyPress(object sender, KeyPressEventArgs e) { // Check whether the entered character is a letter or digit; if (!Char.IsLetterOrDigit(e.KeyChar)) e.Handled = true; } Let me know if that's what you were looking for... ...Show All

• SQL Server Trigger not executing

  I will try to keep this as simple as possible and make a long story short. The college I work for has bought a third party package to basically run the operations of the school. There is a component for registration, admissions, billing, etc. It also has a web component so students can access their school information from anywhere. The backend for all of this is SQL Server. To make things easy, the vendor has provided us with the steps to bulk load users, via DTS, into the system and create their accounts for the web portion. The way this works is as follows: I create a CSV file which I then load via DTS into their "Bulk Load" table. This table has an "on insert" trigger that fires off when the load happens on the &q ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Cannot pass a GCHandle across AppDomains while using unit testing.

  Got a manage C++ class in a class library that uses unmanaged C++ lib. The managed C++ class handles callbacks from the unmanage C++ lib by a delegate "gcroot<MessageDelegate^> m_MessageDelegate". To invoke the delegate I use the call "m_MessageDelegate->Invoke(nMsgId);". This works without any problem when running applications using this class library but when testing the class library using unit testing I got the error "Cannot pass a GCHandle across AppDomains" when I invoke the delegate. Unittesting framework might be creating separate appdomain.

• Visual C++ SetWindowsHookEx making all console apps come to a crawl.

  I have a case where my Windows process uses SetWindowsHookEx to inject a WH_KEYBOARD hook in all processes of the desktop. Everything works as expected except in the case of console applications; including cmd. While my process is running, in console applications, typing is very slow almost like there is a delay in each keyboard event. This is the case even if I have my KeyboardProc does nothing except call CallNextHookEx. All Windows processes are unaffected; it's only console apps. I debugged cmd and found that my DLL never gets loaded in the cmd process, which I would expect since console apps shouldn't bind to User32. I know of other hooks on my computer from other installed software that don’t have the same effect as my hook. A ...Show All

• Connected Services Framework Evaluating CSF

  I have a heterogeneous environment: Windows and Linux. My web services on Windows use .asmx, and I'm currently upgrading those to WCF. The other web services are just XML-RPC services on Linux systems. Some in my organization want to port all those to web services on J2EE. My question is, with which J2EE systems is CSF competitive, and how can the Linux side of the house create well-enabled services that are CSF-compatible WCF messages are wire level compatible with WSE3.0. And CSF3.0 is built on WSE3.0. WCF supports vast range of bindings. By using appropriate bindings on WCF we should able to get WCF services integrated with CSF. ...Show All
