• Windows Forms Listbox test

  Ok, i have read the documentation on the windows api for listboxes. there is this particular message called LB_GETTEXT. As the name implies, i am trying to get the text from the list box. Here is a sample of my code: iSel = SendMessage(GetDlgItem(hwnd, FILE_LIST), LB_GETCURSEL,0,0) SendMessage(GetDlgItem(hwnd, FILE_LIST), LB_GETTEXT, iSel,strbuffer) The documentation writes that it returns the string, however what the 2nd code does only returns me the length of the string. Bascially it serves the same function as GETTEXTLEN... So is there any other way to get the text in the list box Thanks for any helps... ...Show All

• Visual C++ how to detect which line of code causes a particular memory to be written

• Smart Device Development unresolved external symbol _imp_exit

  I get eight unresolved external symbols when i link my program. Seven are from the conio.h file (_imp_exit, _imp_getch, _imp_putch, etc.) and one is from bool setcursorposition(x,y). I don't know how i got this far since i never tried to program a pocket pc before. I am using (C++ win32) to build a console program. i got the program to compile and when i link it i get unresolved external symbol errors. i tried changing the functions "exit, getch, and the rest", then i could not build the cpp file. i believe i'm missing a library call. I scanned all the .lib files and did not find a fix. i just got my copy of mvs2005 seven days ago. it's new to me but works real good. is there a .lib that includes these functions thanks. ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) where is the OptimisticConcurrencyException exception?

  Hello, I'm trying to recompile lot of my May 2006 CTP code with the new March 2007 Orcas release. I've found lot of differences that I'm going to write down in a next post on my site. Btw, I'm not able to find the OptimisticConcurrencyException exception class with its Resolve method useful to change the behavior of LINQ during an optimistic concurrency. Anyone knows which is its new name Thank you in advance. Try ChangeConflictException.

• Visual C# IDisposable : Why and When To Use It?

  Hello, I'm writing a little command line app that has four distinct sections of processing that I've encapsulated in four different classes. To make it explicit for future development, I wanted to do something like this. static void Main( string [] args) { XmlSchema schema; CodeNamespace codeNamespace; //Load schema into memory using (SchemaLoader loader = new SchemaLoader()) { schema = loader.LoadSchemaFromFile(args[0]); } //Convert schema into namespace using (SchemaToNamespaceConverter converter = new SchemaToNamespaceConverter()) { codeNamespace = converter.ConvertSchemaToCodeNamespace(schema); } //Manipulate namespace using (CodeNamespaceTweaker tweaker = new CodeNamespaceTweaker()) { tw ...Show All

• Visual Basic Scroll event for the ListBox control

  I have a ListBox control on a form in a Windows Forms app. The list contains more items than it can display, so the vertical scroll bar appears automatically. My question is, does any event fire when a user scrolls the list I know the TopIndex property reflects the index of the top-most displayed item, but it doesn't appear to have a change event associated with it either. If there are no events that fire when the displayed list has changed (Layout and Paint don't work), does anyone have any ideas on how to detect that in code TIA- Thanks Larry, works like a charm. I needed to sync two listboxes, and this took care of it. Never would have figured that out in 10^6 years... Thanks again- ...Show All

You should be able to access a cube, on a Mac, by a web browser that supports HTML 4.0 if you use Reporting Services 2005 as the report middleware.
