• Visual FoxPro Creating an exe from the Control Panel

  Hello, I have finished my firs application and I have troubles with generating an exe to be installed in the customer’s PC. I’ve accomplished all the requirements seemingly for example to copy the dll that indicates the help of VFP, in same the directory where the application is executed, and to start up from an initial program that after calling to the form from this program, I`ve addedd the sentence of READ EVENTS at the end, I execute It and can’t see anything. The exe run like a process in memory (I do check it with the task Administrator of Windows XP). If I have an open sesion of VFP, it works, but if I close it, It does not (AND the client doesn't have installed VFP) Thank you for your support Regards, Alberto ...Show All

• Visual C# accessing network share (z:\) from a windows service

  Hi, I have a c# code wich copies files from the z:\ to the local harddrive. The code works fine when just running it in a windows application. Because i want to create a service with the same functionality i copied the same code into the onStart() of the service surrounded by a try /catch with logs to the eventlog. In the eventlog i do see that it enters the catch with the error "could not find path z:\". I dont know what is happening here. Anybody an Idea grtz Annihil8 Mapped drives are per-user. Your service is probably running as SYSTEM which won't have the mapped drive. In order to use the mapped drive you'll have to map the drive from within the service itself (using P/Invoke).

• .NET Development which assembly will be called?

  Hi, I am studying .net and run it this question: Assembly A calls a private assembly B to do some function. B is located in the bin directory of A. Later you You assign B a strong name, set its version to 1.0.0.0, and install it in the global assembly cache. In this case, which B the assembly A will call is it still the B in bin or it is from global assembly cache Many Thanks Jerry Your understanding looks correct to me. The one thing I'm not sure about is why the question mentions publisher policy. Publisher policy is something you can set up to say "Any application that asks for version X should use version Y instead by default." So it's something that only makes sense once y ...Show All

• Windows Networking Development Can the (QoS/qWAVE) be used as a media tutorial?

  I do not have Vista, but I am curious as to the limitations of (QoS/qWAVE) Would like to know if their is such a thing as creating a media file that loads at "first boot up" Then is available for the user to use as reference later on if need be Is this possible I am not even sure if I am in the right area to ask this question or not. This link was given to me in the MSNexpert live chat. Regarding limitations of QoS/qWAVE, you would have to be more specific. This feature of the core Vista networking stack enables applications to (i) safely prioritize different types of traffic, (ii) pace the rate at which traffic is sent, i.e. throttle, and (iii) receive real-time notifications of changing network conditions in order to d ...Show All

• Visual C++ How to detect accesses to unallocated memory?

  I am looking for a free library to help find memory related bugs, such as memory leaks and accesses to unallocated memory. my code uses new/delete, and I don't want to change it so ideally I'd like something that could print errors (most of the time) when I do something like this. int* intptr = new int[2]; intptr[100]=5; intptr[2]=5; I've tried FORTIFY but it didn't work on that example above Can anyone recommend me a good library or a profiler sort of thing (like valgrind) that can do this reasonably well on windows I heard that there are some tools from GNU, but I never was able to find anything that works with Microsoft compiler. I almost forgot - take a look at MFC's implementation of new/delete usin ...Show All

• SharePoint Products and Technologies KPI List handling of SSAS KPIs with null values

  When displaying KPIs from Analysis Services 2005 in Sharepoint using the KPI List, we noticed something unexpected. It seems that if the KPI Value evaluates to Null (ie there's no data for the KPI), the goal value doesn't display either, even if it has a value. So, for example, if the goal is "10", but the value is Null, neither value displays. That doesn't seem right to us - just because there's no data for the KPI doesn't mean that there isn't a valid goal. Is there anything we can do to change this behavior Note that this is inconsistent with how Excel 2007 displays KPIs - Excel acts as we would expect. Hi Kevin, This might be "by design", but it makes life a little difficult. ...Show All
