• Smart Device Development Smart Phone and PocketPC friendly

  Hi, I'm developing an application which will have to run on both PPCs and SmartPhones (CF1, 2003SE+) It should be responsive to touch screens and handle screen rotation on PPC and handle keypresses on the SmartPhone. Ideally I'd like to just have one project with either 2 builds (and compiler constants) or some runtime device detection. This is will require good separation between the UI and the back end. But as this is my first real project of this nature, I'm not sure how this will turn out - is it possible to do the above successfully Any strategies, advice, links etc you could offer would be really appreciated.. Cheers, you'd probably have to go with two different forms in a single project -- a touch ...Show All

• SQL Server WMI Connections and Server name

• Software Development for Windows Vista Best practices for integrating WF & WCF?

  Hi, I was thinking about designing a SOA platform on top of WCF, where WF gets the task to orchestrate the services. So I was searching for ways WF could interoperate with WCF. Currently I see only two approaches to do so: a) workflow communicates with the outside world via usual local services, which might be backed by WCF Services. This approach is shown in the expense reporting sample. b) workflow communicates via direct calls to WCF Services. This approach is shown by Roman Kiss in http://www.codeproject.com/useritems/CustomRemotingForWorkflow.asp Comparing this two approaches I would say following (though I'm pretty new to this topic and might be wrong): I like in a) that it's transparent whether one is using a light weight local serv ...Show All

• .NET Development Help needed:server.transter not working for callbacks

  We implemented a web application which use a custom module for authentication. The problem is that the session expires and the first call to the server is a callback, the serve.transfer does not work (the page to which the request is transfered is executed, but the browser just diplays a blank page). Does anyone have a solution to this problem. Any help would be appreciated. What is this custom module Does it work with or in place of the built-in ASP.Net authentication Do you have cookies turned off on your browser If it works with the .Net authentication try increasing the authentication timeout to 20 or 30 minutes.: <authentication mode="Forms"> <forms slidingExpiration=" ...Show All

• .NET Development The server committed a protocol violation. Section=ResponseStatusLine AGAIN

  Hi I’m using VS 2005 (.NET 2.0) I have been reading many post reflecting my problem I didn’t want to make a new post but I can't find those solutions to work for me. I’m talking about this exception: System.Net.WebException: The server committed a protocol violation. Section=ResponseStatusLine I know the theory: the problem is the server is not sending the right format of the HttpResponse Base on RFC2616 with is the format accepted for .NET etc etc. I can’t change the server response.That is a fact!

• Visual Studio Team System Moving Labeled files/folders to different project/folder - label still points to old location of files/folders

  Why are labels bound to a particular project or source control project root Also, why doesn't the label update its list of files when some of its files are moved When I moved a set of directories with many labeled files (and multiple labels) from the original project to a new directory or project tree, the labels did not 'move' with the directories/files. My question then is: Is it possible to "Move" labels along with files or folders Here's the scenario. Two projects: $/OriginProject $/TargetProject A single workspace pointing each of the above project directories to its own local directory. I added a folder and a text file to OriginProject as so: $/OriginProject/TestFolder/TestFile.txt I then labeled th ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Sizeof(Color) struct / Terrain Rendering issue

  I'm working on translating a Terrain generation project from a Direct3D book that I purchased into C#/XNA. I so far have accomplished 1) Generating a height map using the algorithm in the book adapted to C# 2) Taking that height map and rendering it to the screen using a Panel in a Windows Forms app (the panel is passed to the GraphicsDevice). Everything works beautifully. Last night, I built out the classes/structs I needed to convert the heightmap into a grid of patches that then are rendered as a model to the panel. I had some bugs in translating to XNA because of no Mesh object. However, I was able to overcome those. It looks like my terrain is rendering, however, I don't think its correctly using my COLOR data. I built out the s ...Show All

• Commerce Server "Error from transport adapter for BatchComplete event"

  Till yesterday our deployment involving the Commerce Sever Catalog and Orders adapters were working fine inone BizTalk application. But now we getting this message: The Messaging Engine received an error from transport adapter "CommerceServerOrders" when notifying the adapter with the BatchComplete event. Reason "Object reference not set to an instance of an object.” This tells us nothing. However there have been 2 recent developments on the server which could have led to this scenario: A second Biztalk application was added and it is now referencing the first one through a Biztalk application reference. Since the 2nd one also uses the Commerce Server adapters and the Microsoft Global Property Schema can reside in ...Show All

Other things you might be able to work around this are: Change compression to "for size" or "for speed" Set the build to "loose files" I hope one of these will work. ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) PeerChannel issue - CPU spikes, then goes offline for a full minute

  The following problem was recently observed in an application that uses PeerChannel: 1. CPU suddently spiked and stayed high for 5 minutes, not triggered by any user activity. 2. PeerChannel status went to offline and CPU went back to normal levels. 3. PeerChannel stayed offline for a full minute, then finally went back online. No condition is known that contributed to this behavior; the number of other messages nodes was low (but definitely more than 2) and the rate of messaging is not excessive. Any ideas on what might cause this symptom It is causing the customer a lot of concern. Could you provide a simple repro for this problem Without looking at the repro it is hard to debug issues like this on a forum. ...Show All

• SQL Server How to find a record

  How to find a record in table without key How to get specific record in table without key field and displaying on datagrid YOu explanation has to be a bit more specific. There is no problem in finfing any values (even if there is no "key" on the column) by just using a query for retrieving the data. I also do not understand what "How to get a specific record without a key filed" means, because if you want to have a specific record, you will have to provide an identifier for extracting / querying the data from the database.

• Software Development for Windows Vista Custom Rule Expression parsing error.

  I am creating some custom rule expressions for my users to make use of in rules. I created a basic sample to sum a list of numbers. When I try to use my expression I get an error from the rule set designer saying: "Error parsing the Action(s): The method "SUM" on type "Company.Workflow.Rules.SUM" does not exist, is not accessible, or has no match with the signature specified." I have downloaded other samples of custom expression and custom rule actions and have used them successfully but I do not know why mine is not working. My code is as follows: I tried simplifying this by just having two expressions instead of an array but I had the same results. public class SUM : CodeExpression, IRuleExpression { CodeExpression[] exps; public ...Show All
