• .NET Development Record Limits for SQL Server Express?

  I would like to get started using the Visual Studio and SQL Server Express. Is there a max number of records that SQL Server Express Edition imposes, or what is the threshold of practical application in terms of concurrencies Also, if there is a small record limit size (that would be impractical for thousands of concurrencies) would data access to mySQL be provided within Visual Studio Express as an alternative Thank You, Don Don't believe 2000 or 2003 Server will limit the number of concurrent connections. Running under these environments the limitation will probably be dictated by the system resources cap for Express. If I remember correctly the number of concurrent connections per instance was 32,767, but I would be su ...Show All

• SQL Server get dates NOT between x and y

  Hi. I hope this is the write place to post this, I hope it is. basically, I want to be able to return me a query of giving me available dates in a table. What I mean is that, if I have a table with fields including start date and end date, I want to return me the dates which are NOT listed/stored in the table. kind of like a booking system, where you store the room reservation dates and obviously you don't want to double book that room, so I would like all the available dates to be returned back. is this possible how can I go about doing this Thanks! Many thanks for this valuable query, greatly appreciated. I do have a question though - you say "Create a calander table that contains all possible date ...Show All

• Windows Live Developer Forums MSN Add-In developer info

  After writing a couple small msn add ins for fun I though I'd share some of the things I've learned from this. Security Unless an addin is signed with a strong name key and loaded into the global assembly cache it will run with very restricted access. E.g the permission set "Internet". Error codes: 8013150A = An error relating to security occurred. ( COR_E_SECURITY ) More info about how strong naming works can be found here . Sending Messages (Limitations) You can only send messages in the IncomingTextMessage event. And only to the person who sent you the message. This means you can't have for example a timer sending out a message to someone every X hours. Or forwarding all messages from Bill to Bull Error codes: 810003DF = Attempt sen ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Destructor of service .

  Hi i use in InstanceContextMode .PerSession when client is closed i does not reach to destructor of service desspite of that i close the channel , and the client is down. i dont know why the service is not release despite of client is down. Can you provide a little code illustration how you close the channel on the client side and what you mean by "destructor" of the service Are you referring to the Dispose() method or to the actual class destructor The latter will only be called once GC reclaims the memory, which might take quite a while (depending on a multitude of factors). ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Drilling down to the source of a WCF error

  I'm having trouble finding the source of a WCF exception I get calling a function returning a complex type over a netTcpBinding. Judging from the trace, my problem comes from an array (see bolded part below, near the end of the very long trace). There are indeed array members in classes included in my return type (members of members of the return type to be exact). Now, how do I go about finding which array is wreaking havoc and why Edit : the problem is better defined in my further posts below System.ServiceModel Transfer: 0 : , relatedActivityId=18d927d1-79df-4388-95cf-43cc8ce9cb87 DateTime=2007-01-15T18:16:20.0184792Z Callstack= at System.Environment.get_StackTrace() at System.Diagnostics.TraceEventCache.get_Callstack() at Sy ...Show All

• Smart Device Development digitally sign a cab

  Hello Can some one help me how to digitally sign mycab files Actually i want my application' cabs to be included into Ext.ROM of the device so it installs automaticaly. But when the cab is not signed, it wont get installed. Please help me out. Thank you in advance.. CAB is signed with cabsigner.exe tool pretty much the same way as any other file. That is only good for testing purposes or if certificate you’re signing with is on devices and is trusted. If not, you should use 3 rd party signing authority like Verisign to sign your CAB. Only WM 5.0 and SP 2003 CAB files needs to be signed. Signing CABs for other platforms would render them useless. ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions install a program from C# express with only .Net 1.1

  Is this possible I wrote a program for my associates at work, unfortunately I made the huge mistake of not checking whether or not they had .NET 2.0 installed, unfortunately, they do not, instead they have .NET 1.1. I cant ask them to install 2.0 so im in a pickle, is there any way to set up my program to only use .NET 1.1, i dont mind modifying my code or anything, if there is, please please let me know. Thank you! Express generates assemblies that only work with the .NET 2.0 framework. You could recompile your app using the .NET 1.1 command line compilers but that's quite awkward. Ask you friends to download and install the .NET 2.0 framework , it is a one-time installation they'll eventually need to ma ...Show All

• .NET Development RFID Reader Project

  Hello, I'm currently working on a project which involves a serial port RFID Reader. I have connected the Reader to COM2 of my PC and i'm trying to get the signals from the RFID Tags. I'm using Visual C# and SerialPort class. The problem is that i can't read or write to the port. I even tried to write something to the port using port.Writeline("string") and then read it with Readline() but it seems that nothing is written and nothing can be read. When i set the RtsEnable to TRUE the BytesToRead property changed from 0 to 9 no matter what i did and still i couldn't read anything. I also wanted to ask you if you have any code samples to send me or if any of you has written a similar program that works. I need to fix t ...Show All
