• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. XACT praise, request

  Just a quick comment and question: 1. XACT is definitely a step in the right direction for semi-professional work. It simplifies a lot of things and brings some powerful abstractions. As long as you don't care about Sony and Nintendo, it's fantastic ;). The integration with the XDK is also nice. I haven't used XACT as a retail game-wide solution, yet, though - just for small personal projects and voice chat. Those who complain about how many steps it takes to play a sound might want to put off ranting until they get some more experience and a better appreciation for what it takes to ship a game :) On the other hand, I'm using C++... so their impatience may be a testament to how easy XNA is to use. Anyway, I like XACT. Or at least I really ...Show All

• SQL Server What is the best way of moving indexes to a different file group in SQL2005?

  I was looking for a simple way to script out the delete and create statements, so I can change "ON [new filegroup]".  There are hundreds of indexes in this database.  If you know an easy way of doing this or a better way please let me know. Thanks. This is more like what I was looking for. I am hoping someone will post a tried and true version of this that they have used. This looks like it handles the majority of cases but if someone used one of the lesser used options like "sort order" it would be lost. Rob, thanks again for the post. ...Show All

• Visual Basic Remove blank space from middle of string/Concatinating

  I have a program (Visual Basic) where I click on a file name in a ListBox, i.e. "0001 42356.tif" which loads that selected string into a textbox. I click that ListBox again and another file name as string, i.e. "0001 43278.tif" is loaded into a second text box. These two strings will eventually be joined to create a "span" First issue is - I need any blank spaces gone from the strings leaving them as: "000142356.tif" and "000143278.tif". The Trim methods I've studied just trim space from the beginning or end so I've tried 500 other things but nothing is getting rid of the space yet. The second issue is, I need to concatinate those 2 file names (creating a span in a third textbox) &qu ...Show All

• .NET Development CLR TRIGGER

  Hello, I have created CLR trigger (AdventureWorks database) and it works. It exists in the sys.trigggers view, however, I do not see it in the database object browser. If i try to DROP it, I get this message: Cannot drop the trigger 'trcs_GetInsertUpdateDeleteInfo', because it does not exist or you do not have permission . If i try to (re)CREATE it, I get this message: There is already an object named (the trigger name) in the database. I think that I am dealing with some bug in SQL Server 2005, but I could be wrong of course. If anybody faced the same problem, please let me know. Thanks an regards. Alex. ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Where does Directx 9L fit in?

  Uptil now I was under the belief that DX 9L was the DX9 version of Vista. That means vista had DX10 and this 9L (Legacy ) together. So games that could use DX10 used that and other stuff defaulted back to the old DX architecture.  Now today I read on the Inquirer (rumor central) that DX 9L is basically DX10 for XP...that is DX9c in XP will be replaced by that.  Can someone clear out what is the position of DX9L in the world of DX10 and DX9c and what OS is it meant for..Thanks It's a very funny rumor. First, officially DX10 is D3D10 only. There's no DSound10 or blah blah blah. Only D3D10. And no, D3D9L is a Vista extension for D3D9-based titles so they can make use of some of the new Vista- ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System TFS Word Integration Starter Kit

  Hello: I heard about this Starter Kit. Is it available Where to get it Thanks, Yuhang I can personally attest to the fact that integration of any sort with Word is greatly improved in Word 12. The custom xml and content controls allow for integration between systems and Word unlike anytime before. Depending on your needs- I definately encourage you to look at the CTP for VSTO for Office 2007 and Office 2007 Beta 2. I know that once I started using Word 12. I simply won't look at trying any significant integration from other systems without seeing if it is within the timeframe to simply do it under Word 12. ...Show All

• Visual C++ IA64 VC8 merge module download

  I'm trying to locate the following two merge modules for IA64: Microsoft_VC80_CRT_x64_ia64.msm and policy_8_0_Microsoft_VC80_CRT_x86_ia64.msm. Can anyone tell me where to get them I got the impression that I would get them with Visual Studio 2005 Professional. I installed it (English version onto a Windows XP system) but no luck. I've spent days looking for the silly things -- help, please! They should be only with VS8 Team. Pro only has the x64 compiler. They should also be with the Windows SDK too, since that has the IA64 compiler with it, but its a 1GB download. If you need the runtime but can't find the merge modules, the following link will give you the full release libraries for the CRT, MFC ...Show All
