• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. problem with "your first game: Microsoft XNA game studio express in 2d" tutorial

  Hey, i just started using the xna game studio express beta 2 today and i decided to try out the tutorial. I thought i did everything correctly but when i debug it, it gives me an error for the line " spritebatch = new SpriteBatch (graphics.GraphicsDevice);" it says "InvalidOperationException was unhandled" and im not really sure what to do. any help with fixing this would be greatly appreciated, thanks. Another thought... Actually although you will not be able to get XNA working on your notebook with the Geforce2 card, theoretically you should still be able to create an XBox 360 project and deploy the binaries to an 360. Once the XNA Framework is available for the 360, you should be good to go. It m ...Show All

• Visual C# Help with Strong Name signing in VS2005

  Hello, When I have finished a session of writing and debugging my Class within Visual Studio, does the Strong Name key have to be updated for that particular version of my source code If I have set up Signing Tab in the Properties page of the Class module, does Visual Studio manage any updating needed Would it be quite wrong to get a snk file created elsewhere, and attach it in the Signing Tab Thanks John Many thanks Mattias, for your speedy response. It does clarify a lot.... So, since signing my dll is intended to prevent someone else spoofing it, am I right that each time I build my Class Module, the VS2005/.Net environment must calculate a new "hash" or "footprint&quo ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Dramatic memory leak in DrawText

  I've been banging my head against the wall for the last few days trying to track down the source of a rather big memory leak in my Direct3D-application. Turns out the culprit seems to be the DrawText function. Let me explain exactly what happens: I'm using a variable width truetype font (Times New Roman) created through D3DXCreateFont. I'm using this in various parts of my application, but the part where the problems are easiest to notice is in my custom UI textboxes. I use a function called InsertText to add new characters to the printed string, and everything I initialize is cleaned up properly afterwards. The problems only truly begin upon typing the "f" or the "j" character, and only if they are lowercase. I a ...Show All

• SQL Server Time Dimension Browsing Very Slow - ProClarity

  Hello, I have a problem when browsing the time dimension (when cube cells have values) I have a standard time dimension with the following levels Year-Quarter-Month-Day. My cube has values for the years 2003 .... until 2006. 2002 Does not have values. When I browse the time dimension for 2002 (the year where cube has no values), I have no problem..but when I browse the dimension for values in the other years.... I wait until 1 minut to make a drill down in the dimension Pane (whitout executing the query). PS: I notice in SQL Server Profiler, that each time I browse the dimension in ProClarity, all my 80 partitions are read in the OLAP Server....without executing the query.

• SQL Server How to solve Circular Reference in Analysis Service

  Is there any way to solve a circular reference in Analysis Service calculation I'm migrating a Excel model to Analysis Service cube, but in Excel I can iterate to solve circular reference, but in Analysis Service calculations I can find a way to do that. You can use CALCULATION_PASS_NUMBER and CALCULATION_PASS_DEPTH in AS2005 in exactly same way you did with AS2000, only with AS2005 you don't need to purchase Enterprise Edition to use them ! Just paste the CREATE CELL CALCULATION statement inside the script view - and it will work fine. AS2005 is backward compatible with AS2000 on MDX level. ...Show All

• SQL Server Can we allow NULL value to nested key?

  Hi, all here, I am having a problem with NULL value for the nested key of the nested table. Is it possible to allow '' null' ' value to nested key If so, how can we deal with that As the column I am using for nested key contains null values, thus the process failed. Could please any expert here give me any advices for that Really need help for that. With best regards, Yours sincerely, You cannot have a NULL value as nested key. The simple way to work around is to replace your nested table, in the data source view, with a named query which filters out the NULL columns. I think replacing the table with a query is an option if you right click on the table in the Data Source View Designer ...Show All

• Visual Studio Sandcastle Help File Builder

  I've created an NDoc-like GUI front-end plus a command-line builder tool for automating help file builds with Sandcastle. It's available at: http://www.codeproject.com/useritems/SandcastleBuilder.asp Using the help file builder provides the following advantages: The GUI interface is almost identical to the NDoc interface so anyone familiar with NDoc should be quite comfortable using it. You can import several settings from an existing NDoc project to start a new Sandcastle Help File Builder project. The builder will automatically locate both Sandcastle and the HTML help compiler by looking in the system path and in the Program Files special folder on all fixed hard drives. Properties are also supplied for you to specify the ...Show All
