• Visual Basic "Start external program" no longer works in VS2003 once 2.0 framework installed

  Ever since I installed VS2005, the "Start external program" feature in VS2003 in Project Properties-->Configuration Properties --> Debugging does not work anymore. The external program launches for a moment, then bails out of memory with no apparent error. Removing the .Net Framework 2.0 fixes the problem. The only other person her in the office with VS2005 installed has the exact same problem. Removing the 2.0 framework worked for him as well. Any thoughts on how to get the feature working again WITHOUT removing 2.0 Marcus Just a guess, but if your external program was running with the 2.0 Framework rather than the 1.1 Framework then the 1.1 Debugger probably wouldn't like it very much. ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Cross-platform development question

  Hi guys! I intend to make an application and deploy it on PC and XBOX. I want to know how do you want me to do it I see some ways: I can copy my code in other directory and change references to Compact Framework. As a result I'll have two copies of my code. It's the worst alternative, isn't it I can use only Compact Framework even on PC (if it's possible); Something else What is the best way to do it Jim Perry wrote: Develop the code base that will exist in both projects in a 360 project, create the Windows Game project and link that code in then add whatever PC specific code you need (networking, WinForms, etc).

• Visual Studio Express Editions ListBox Limited

  I've been asked to create a glossary application for business faculty in my university. There're two part of the glossary: term and definition. I store the term in a listbox, while I store the definition in a texfile. Problem: listbox can only store limited size (around 1000 terms). Question: Is there any other ways that can be used to store terms in the glossary. That's odd. I have listbox become full after I read about 1500 terms into it. Do you know what is the real size of listbox Searching: Do While Not blnFound And intIndex < lstTerminology.Items.Count strListCompare = lstTerminology.Items(intIndex) strListCompare = strListCompare.ToUpper() strTextCompare = txtKeyWord.Text ...Show All

• .NET Development GetHashCode and Equals once again

  I do not see how GetHashCode() and Equals() can ever successfully be implemented given the guidelines. I am assuming that one of the guidelines, apart from the well-known one of two objects being equal ( Equals() ) returning the same hash code ( GetHashCode() ), is that GetHashCode can not change during the lifetime of an object. Given this assumption it appears to me that GetHashCode must either be implemented on a totally immutable class, or that it must only use immutable data members of a class. Since this is the case, the Equals() function must also depend on either a totally immutable class or only use immutable data members of a class. To me this need to rely only on immutable data in a class defeats the entire purpose of object eq ...Show All

• Commerce Server Azman failing to load stores

  Hi When I start AzMan it tries to load the stores that were previously loaded, which at that point it displays an error message saying that it couldn't find the file paths. When I then open the stores manually there isn't a problem. Has anybody seen this behaviour before My main problem is that the Catalog service tells me "the current user is not authorized" and I wondered if the two problems were related. Thanks in advance Paul These two problems are not related. One workaround you can try for the azman problem is to first manually close the currently opened authorization store before closing the Azman MMC. Next time you start azman.mmc it should open without trying to access an ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Problem with BoundingSphere

  I am trying to use the BoundingSphere property of the ModelMesh class to perform collision detection. The problem I'm having is that the value of BoundingSphere.Center seems to have nothing to do with where I am drawing the mesh. (e.g. I last drew my mesh at (-110,-550,0) and the bounding sphere is centered at (-5.87,25.0,10.0) with a radius of 127.0. Below is my draw code for the model (following an approach taken from Microsoft's tutorials) and my collision detection check code. Any ideas about what I am missing Thanks! Draw Code: Matrix[] transforms = new Matrix[this.wallModel.Bones.Count]; this.wallModel.CopyAbsoluteBoneTransformsTo(transforms); foreach (ModelMesh mesh in this.wallModel.Meshes) { fo ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Performance and Garbage Collector Monitoring under Windows?

  Hello I noticed some people on the forums used the "XNA Framework Remote Performance Monitor for Xbox360" to get data about what the Garbage Collector does and other information while running the game.
