• Smart Device Development a problem has occurred with edm.exe

  When I run the Pocket PC Emulator (with and without debugging in VS2005) I get the following message: "We're sorry....A problem has occurred with edm.exe. Please tell Microsoft about this problem, at no cost to you. The data is used exclusively to improve products." Then i have two links to either show report details or turn off error reporting. If I wait long enough, the message goes away and my program appears to run normally. Can anyone tell me what this is all about Are you in the process of debugging your exe when this happens Make sure that all locals\watch\callstack\etc windows are closed and see if it repros. Could be that something is being evaluating that's exposing a bug (if that does seem to be case, anyth ...Show All

• SQL Server Confusing layout in SSIS with regard to "Execute SQL Task".

  I hope someone can help. I'm trying to read rows from a SQL Server Table and for each row use a few columns as parameters into a query to be run against oracle which will delete oracle rows. I add OLDEB connections for Oracle and SQL and then I try to add a "Execute SQL Task". I've also tried a "OLE Command" but I can't get the mapping of the columns to the parameters to work. There is lots of articles on the web that talk in general around parameterized queries but no clear examples. I also find the difference between the Control Flow and Data Flow tabs confusing as its not intuitive where to place things. It also appears to force me to re-define things that it should already know (this is no doubt because ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista WF as a web service & capturing WF events

  I have seen a few examples of using ASP.Net as a WF host and then the host code subscribing to workflow completed, terminated etc. events. When you expose a WF as a web service, in this case you do not have any such code. What would be the appropriate way to capture such events in cases like this I would think that if I added a global.asax and tried to capture the information there, that this could cause a problem with not knowing which particular workflow was being completed or terminated. Thanks! Hi - Globals.asax seems to be a possible approach! You can get the specific information about the instance from WorkflowTerminatedEventArgs: e.WorkflowInstance. I guess that was your specific question - right ...Show All

  Hello; is it possible to use the $(ConfigurationName) variable XNA Build CTP, just like we can use global variables Another solution would be to define different variables per configuration. Any suggestion would be appreciated, thanks! Hello; I've tried using the $(Configuration) variable in my XNA Build tasks settings for specifying an output directory, just like I would use a global variable @(ProjectPath). Do XNA tasks use their own variables I've seen in the MC2 sample that it was possible to use an environment variable @(MC2ROOT); why isn't possible to use a MSBuild variable such as @(Configuration) Am I doing something wrong or is it just not supported yet I also tried messing direct ...Show All
