• Visual C# Error when trying to compile a program

  I am quite new to Visual C# 2005 Express and I sometimes get an error while trying to run my program (F5). It looks like this: "The following module was build either with optimizations enabled or without debug information: C:\Documents and Settings\CBS\My Documents\Visual Studio 2005\Projects\Lesson02\Lesson02\bin\Debug\Lesson02.exe To debug this module, change its project build configuration to debug mode. To supress this message disable the 'Warn if no user code on launch' debugger option." The strange part is, that this message first appears after some time working on the project. If i start an entire new project the program starts just fine. Any ideas how to solve this Th ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Code4Fun Framework Timer compile issue

  Hi, I am attempting to make use of the QueryPerformanceCounter timer, as detailed in the Coding4FunTutorial. After following the steps, add a new folder, copy the dxmutmisc.cs file to the project. I get 133 errors most saying "The type or namespace name DirectX does not exist in the namespace Microsoft( are you missing an assembly reference )" ANy direction would be appreciated. Thanks Jeff Have you added System.Diagnostics to your references The only other reason That won't work is if you are somehow using .Net 1.1. This is very odd. Stopwatch is not something that works with events. It just tells you very accuratly how much time has passed. Typically games do not work on t ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) IsOptional Datamember?

  I see that there is an 'IsOptional' attribute to the [Datamember] custom attribute. From the documentation this seems primarily targeted to versioning. I would like to have an optional member in the same sense that is defined in an XSD schema. When the member is defined as being 'optional' one can specify the default value for the member. Is there something equivalent for a data contract For example if there is a string member called 'name' and if it is not specified I would like not only for an exception not to be raised but I would like the default to be 'foo'. Thank you. you can specify the datacontract to emit default values http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa347792.aspx and also use the Is ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. no query - big mistake

  Hi, Paul Bleisch said about support for device queries: "They are not there today. What are the scenarios where you are using device queries (i.e. which queries) We've had much internal debate about this (in regards to the general lack of support for them and what the API should look like if we did it)." My question is: Whether there will be a support for device queries and when the XNA team will spend the patch to XNA which is removing this big mistake Cheers, query. Well someone else also mentioned this but I noticed that nobody has entered a bug/suggestion into connect. So if this is really important to you log in and go to https://connect.microsoft.com/feedback/defa ...Show All

• Windows Forms Can't get help; ClickOnce deployment doesn't work

  Hi I am a newbie to VB.Net (started about 3 weeks ago), and I have 2 main problems with the usage of the IDE: - I don't have any help file, obviously (big company, automatic install and so on, so no CD and the like), 'cause it tells me all the time that it doesn't find anything when I hit F1. So I set it so that the on-line help should be looked up first... Still no help at all. I have to go to the MS site for looking up every bit of info I need ! Why does the setting of "on-line first" not work Known problem - I just don't get the whole deployment stuff at all a) why is it using so absolutely incredibly complicated pathnames like "C:\Documents and Settings\myUser\Local Settings\Apps\2.0\CJ7ZZG3N.XN6\0NHXA5R4.DN ...Show All

• Visual Basic Interop Constants problem

  Hi, I have built a VB.NET, VS 2005 class library that is exposed to VB6/COM clients. Everything works as expected except for the fact that Constants (Const) are NOT being exported to the VB6/COM type library; they are not visible. I have tried every trick in the book to force .NET constants to be available to VB6/COM, but to no avail. Enumerators appear correctly, but I need String (Public Const Test As String = "MyString") type constants as opposed to the numeric (Integer) type Enumerator members (Test = 5); I have no choice, I cannot use Enumerators as they only store numeric values. Is there any way to accomplish this. I basically want to avoid the VB6/COM developer from having to guess which constant value to use; o ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista using regsvr32 in Vista 5231 to install COM component fails to write to registry

  I am trying to register a com object (dll) with regserv32 in Vista 5231. My Dll is being loaded and my DLLRegisterServer method is invoked which uses RegCreateKeyEx and RegSetValueEx to write to the registry (HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\XXX\XXX). I am writing everything out to a file just to make sure everything is going ok. all the RegCreateKeyEx calls and RegSetValueEx calls are returning success, but when I look in the registry my newly created keys aren't there. Are there any known issues with using RegCreateKeyEx or RegSetValueEx to modify the registry with Vista 5231 Thank you, thank you, thank you! I've been searching all over for the answer to this!
