• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Multiple Filter Graphs with DirectShow

  Hi All, I've created an application that uses a custom allocator-presenter that I created based on the VMR9Allocator example found on the DirectX SDK (well, now it's on the Platform SDK). I've managed to uderstand most of what I've "implemented" and I now have almost everything I need, except for one thing. I need to be able to play more than one video at the same time and to control them independently. To do this I know that I need to have multiple Filter Graphs rendering the videos on private textures and then have the Allocator-Presenter show them on screen (this I know, but I don't fully understand how). The SDK has a multiple filter graph example called MultiVRM9, but it's way too much for what I need, it's massive distance ...Show All

• Visual C# C# pointer

  I need to create a C# pointer for a DLL function. I wrote byte* Read_Data_ptr, but I get the error: Pointers and fixed size buffers may only be used in an unsafe context Any help with this would be geatly appreciated. Thank you, Mike Hi, you need to declare an unsafe block where you can use unmanaged code: unsafe { byte* Read_Data_ptr; } Consider "marshalling" (i.e. converting your unmanaged type to managed type) when calling functions from DLL's. ...Show All

• Windows Search Technologies Windows Desktop search

  Is windows desktop search able to access and retireve previous saved versions of a word document This is a feature google desktop does under "cache" Will Vista incorporate this feature It should. It is the only reason I have google desktop, which seems to slow my computer down. The advantage to having it is if you happen to delete something on a document and then click save you can retrieve the information you deleted quickly, rather than buying and running an expensive recover and restore data program. I lost data recently this way, deleting much more than I realized. Thanks, Gino ...Show All

• Visual Basic need help about internet domains

  Please help me about writing a program in VB.NET to do this : List all available domains on the internet. I would start by reading up on how DNS works.

• SQL Server 64 bit Server Aliases SQL 2005

  Does anyone know how to create SQL Server aliases for Itanium servers Alternatively does anyone know how to use SMO to create a SQLAliasCollection for a specific server I can't seem to find how to get that collection. I've added aliases that work for 32 bit applications but they don't seem to be used for 64 bit applications. Thanks. It turns out alias are working fine for 64 bit and we need to add the 32 bit. The problem turned out to be that I can't connect from an Itanium Back to the itanium using a different name. When we do, NT credentials are getting blocked. We can connect to other machines using aliases, just not back to the same machine. We're investigating how to get around that at the moment :) ...Show All

• SQL Server Exporting sp result to flat file using XML schema

  Hi there, To put in context, we are using BizTalk to get the result from a stored proc and export it to a text file using a XML schema (XSD). The XSD includes formatting info such as the justification, padding, etc. We are moving this process to SSIS and we want to reuse the BizTalk schemas. Is it possible Thanks Frantz I have no experience with BizTalk at all... I have already re-wrote a module initially created in BizTalk. The guys said it would take dozens of minutes for the process to complete and with DTS it generates the same files in a matter of minutes. The resulting flat files are up to 100MB so in XML format it was something like twice the size. I don't know if it was bad design b ...Show All

  Hi, I am trying to import data from a csv files to a OLE DB Destination. The csv files contains all transactional changes . For example for a particular record the firstname, lastname, email address records change within the same csv file. I need to save only the last updated record from the csv files. I have tried "slowly changing dimensions" but these dont work when there is duplictes within the same csv file. Also have tried 'Sort' but this only stores the first occurance. Any ideas how i can store the latest changed data within 1 csv file. the last row wins. there is no timestamp field . This is the way designed by the third party developers. Records are saved in csv files as changes are made ...Show All

• .NET Development VS2005 - XSD file created - Can VS2005 create code automatically?

  Hi all, if this is a stupid question or not directed to this forum, please redirect me to the correct one. I went to Solution Explorer and I created a new item (dataset). I opened Server Explorer until I found the table that I want to access and modify. I then dragged the table in question into the design view of the xsd file. I can see the table represented in the design view, does VS2005 is able to create the class code automaticaly If not, what is the purpose of creating the xsd file Thanks and sorry for the possibly idiotic question, Luis Miguel Pinho To generate the class code, you may use XML Schema Definition Tool (Xsd.exe) from the .NET Framework SDK.
