• .NET Development Passing a local client ref object to remote server object?

  I would like to pass a MarshalByRefObject derived object (created from a class I made called Client ). I'm using the [Serializable()] attribute on Client , and passing it through the parameter of a method to a remote object called ClientManager . However, the paramaterized Client object comes out null at the server end. At the end of this post is some abstract code to give you a feel for the structure (it is a shared library on both client and server). So, the the null reference is cropping up within the ServerDatabaseManager<...>.Create(...) method on the item object. However I know the rig is working to some extent because, the ClientManager.Fetch() method invoked from a client (on a remote server object) beha ...Show All

• Windows Forms Storing configuration information in external XML file

That's probably what I was looking for (serializing into a string and storing this in configuration file). Is there a sample code how to serialize dataSet into a string and hot to deserialize it Thanks, G ...Show All

• Visual Basic Isolated Storage settings lost when re-publishing

  I'm using VS2005 and clickonce technology. When I publish a new version of my program to my clients their isolated storage settings do not upgrade to the new version I've published. When using app config or user config settings on the 2.0 framework, you can use the Settings.upgrade code to pull the settings up to the new version published. Is there similar code to pull my isolated storage settings up to my new published version kreativekai, When you publish a new version of your program to clients, the clickonce technology with XCopy cannot cover the old version because of the different version number control. The .NET Framework enables side-by-side installation and execution of different versions of the same application. So ...Show All

• SQL Server Avoid windows login prompt while accessing report server.

  Hi, We are using Microsoft Reporting Service 2005 to develop reports and we are accessing these reports through a J2EE application. The front end is implemented using Tapestry and we using JBoss as our applicaiton server. We are using Shared Data Sources for the reports and we set its data source type to SQL Server Analysis Services. In the credential tab, by default "Use Windows authentication" is selected. All other options are disabled. When I access my reportserver through my web application, I am always prompted for a windows login and password. How can I avoid being shown the windows login prompt, since our web application will be used by several users and we do not want the users to type in a username/password everyt ...Show All

• Smart Device Development deploy always re-installs cabs

  Hi, When I deploy my project to my ppc, it always reploys the cabs for sql server mobile and prompts me 3 times to reinstall the apllication with an OK or Cancel button. Im guessing 1 if for replication instalation 1 is something else and the other cab is the db engine How can I stop this, even when I press cancel on each of these it still adds around 40 second extra to my deployment time.

• Visual Studio Team System Web Tests with form POST

  Hi, I am having some trouble with web tests with HTML form POST. This is not a classic ASP.NET application. It still uses the old ASP style programming which has been ported to C# and http handlers. The web test just freezes when I try to execute a test with form POST. Tried a coded web test too, tried recording with Fiddler, with no success. In fact I went back and did the same steps using HTTPRequest class, but to no avail. In all steps, the test just freezes when it tires to do a POST. Another interesting fact: The POST succeeds if and only if I run it from an HTTPRequest class with Fiddler running. When I turn off Fiddler the POST requests fail. I tried with numerous urls from the web with the same results. Any clue. Sam ...Show All

• SQL Server Trying to get to square 1 with incremental processing

  Basic stuff here - I've got a partition that I'll eventually need to process incrementally through AMO. Before commiting anything to code, I thought I'd give it a try in SSMS, and I'm having trouble getting even the simplest incremental update to succeed. Here's what I tried: I fully processed the partition and captured the SQL used to query the fact tables (by copying it out of the status/progress info in the Process dialog of SSMS). I modified that query to return an identical resultset, but limited to only the last few rows. I once again opened the Process dialog in SSMS on the partition in question, selected the option to use a query to select the fact data to be processed and pasted in my modified query. Clicking OK result ...Show All

• Visual Studio Linking DSL Files

  Hi All, I will try to be as brief as possible. I've been making a DSL project for 2 months now. And somehow my application need to access the inner-structure of Visual Studio. I went to DSL forum to solve my problem, but someone pointed me to this forum. I hope there is someone here who can help me out. I dont know if my first question is related to GAT. When I run my DSL project I can add an item in Experimental Window by left-clicking the Debugging in solution explorer and then a window with templates appears. There I can choose my DSL template for the file I want to add. My question is, how can I perform this by only clicking a button I made by myself How can I show the Add New Item Template window by clicking my button And the ...Show All

• .NET Development Synchronised Time

  Hi, We have client applications that need to synchronise their data with one another. For this reason the time on each of the PC's needs to be the same (within 2 minute margin is fine). The synchronisation procedure runs every hour but certain clients can only synchronise after months (laptop-user)! How can we ensure their clocks are synchronised at all times If there is a webservice somewhere on the internet that provides the time, how do we read it Also, does anyone know of two-way synchronisation code/documentation worth looking at Thanks D.

• SQL Server Linking Share Point Documents?

  Not sure if this is correct terminology - but I think I need to link 2 documents as being one. I have a new document library called Training. Within the Training folder, I want to refer to some existing Word files that exist in another document library. In the Training folder I only want Reader permissions. This file already exists in Shared Documents where it's a living, changing document. How can I link the two - so that when someone changes the document in the Shared Document area that the Training folder is seeing the newly changed document I'm not even sure what I'm supposed to upload on the Training folder - I tried pointing through network neighborhood to the Shared Document area where my original file was and upload to Training - ...Show All
