• Visual Studio Symbols loaded (source information stripped)

  Hi, I'm pretty noob and im just trying figure out my Visual Studio C++ 2005 Express and get it to do a first debug on a HelloWorld and I get these errors 'Hello World!.exe': Loaded 'C:\Documents and Settings\Mike\My Documents\Visual Studio 2005\Projects\Hello World!\Debug\Hello World!.exe', Symbols loaded.

• Visual C++ Cl.exe / link.exe / lib.exe: Need help with command line opts

  Hi, I'm working on an MSBuild setup for compiling for both desktop and WCE devices. Got everything installed, but here's the observation and question: All of the tools are named the same (i.e. compiler is cl.exe, linker is link.exe, etc.) What (in as much detail as possible, msdn help doesn't cover very well) does the /MACHINE option do Can I use the desktop compiler (located in Visual Studio 8\VC\bin) to compile for CE devices by throwing the /MACHINE:ARM switch Am I required to use the /MACHINE:ARM switch when compiling/linking from the link.exe located in the CE directory Am I required to use the cl.exe found in "Visual Studio 8\VC\ce\bin\x86_armv4i" Is there a difference When using the linkers (same ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) is it possible to use one app.config file from many clients?

  Hello I've been making some research on what is and what isn's possible with WCF and I have a question. Suppose, there is a system with one service with say 50 clients that are exactly the same. And suppose the location of the service changed so the address of the service in client's app.config files have to be reset too. In that case, do we have to go to every single 50 app config files of each client and make a change or can we , for example, put one config on a server and make 50 clients read the config file from there so that we need to make a change to only one file If not, what are the ways to make the update really easy for clients If anyone knows the answer, please help me out. Thanks.1 As of V1 we have no way ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. tiled background texture

  Hello there, I'm wondering if it's possible to draw the 2D background of my game with a texture that repeats. If this isn't clear think of the background of Arknoid where the background is simply a rectangular texture that's repeated over and over to cover the background. Thanks, Barranger You could just draw your background texture over and over again until you covered all the area that you needed to cover. I don't think there is anything built into XNA to do this for you. ...Show All

• .NET Development ORA-12154 error when connection to Oracle Database from C#

  I'm trying to connect to an Oracle Database 9.0.2 using OracleClient in C#. I get the error "ORA-12154 Could not resolve service name" when trying to connect to the database. I've checked the TNSNAMES.ora file an it seems ok. The project where I get this error was previously a .VS 2003 project which I converted to a VS 2005 project. As a test I created a small project in VS 2005 where I connected to the same Oracle database with the same connection parameters, and it worked fine. Does anyone have a clue on what might be the problem Try creating a new entry in the tns using the (crappy) oracle tool (oracle net manager). Ive had this same problem before and fixed it this way. ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Will Game Creator Club be Region Locked?

  OK.. bad way to put it.. and it's probably a stupid question but someone's gotta ask it. Since we have a concept of regions to our Live memberships, and the creator club goes ontop of our Live memberships can you answer if Creator Club membership will be open to ALL live subscribers regardles of country Since... some of us are grey... and there're plenty of us out there who don't have US accounts and just dreads it when Major Nelson says "This content is not available in XXXXXX" :P Regionalization is a tough cookie, because it involves things like copyright laws, international commerce laws, etc. That being said, our intention is to make content as broadly available as possible, and we ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. One BGM in memory at a time? See if my method makes any sense.

  Take a look and see if this makes sense. I can't seem to stream an audio file from the hard drive, or at least I don't know how. It looks like streaming is designed to be read from a DvD. However, failing that, it looks like when you define a new audio engine and specify the xact file to use, it loads all the wav files into memory. Obviously, this isn't a good idea for multiple large music files. So... what about creating a separate xact file for each bgm, disposing the wavebank when you want a new bgm and creating a new audio engine, wave bank, and sound bank using the xact file of the new bgm you want. Would this achieve the goal of having only one bgm in memory at a time XACT lets you have as many wavebanks as you like in the s ...Show All

• SQL Server Resources in CLR Stored Procedures?

  Can Resource Files (containing, for example, string resources holding the text of exception messages) be part of a .NET project holding Sql Server CLR Stored Procedures Thanks for you help, Andy Andy, Yes, you can add resources to SQL Server CLR stored procedures. I don't recommend using the Visual Studio GUI for this because the resources generated use non-readonly statics which are not allowed except with unsafe assembly permissions (which is not a good idea from a security point of view). See the HelloWorldReady CLR sample for how to use resources with CLR stored procedures while only requiring safe assembly permissions.
