• SQL Server Conversation that dont end.

  Hi There Message ordering is of utmost importance in our application. As i found in testing the only way to ensure message ordering is if they are in the same conversation.If you send multiple messages in different conversations there is no garantee which will be processed first. Therefore i will be creating conversations that last "forever", that is using a single conversation. I plan on doing a BEGIN DIALOG CONVERSATION when an inititator site is setup and writing the conversation handle guid to a table. I will them simply SEND ON SONVERSATION using the guid, i will never issue a end conversation from target or initiator. Is this theory solid, ie: is there a better way or best practice to do this I know tha ...Show All

• Windows Live Developer Forums Mega Cluster logic

  Dr Neil first mentioned this on the via virtual earth site recently and now I need to use them. Just though I would put my ideas out here and see what you all think and can add. To be clear this is a concept and I’m looking for ideas / help before I build it. Basically the issue is you have X number of points to put on the map where X is very large. 1. If you go and add them all it is going to slow down to a crawl. 2. If you have points at a close proximity at certain zoom levels they are going to sit on top of each other and be unhoverable. The solution is to have a mega cluster that provides information about the points it represents. Firstly we need to look at how we calculate what po ...Show All

• Visual C++ Can't dynamically load VC8 library?

  I would say I am beginning to hate manifests... unfortunately, I am already well past that point. I have an application that dynamically loads a dll (i.e. LoadLibrary() ). It worked when I built with VC6. Now that I am trying to build with VC8, I get the following error: Runtime Error! Program: <path-to-my-program.exe> R6034 And application has made an attempt to load the C runtime library incorrectly. Please contact the application's support team for more information. I used to get this error trying to run the application itself, but was able to resolve it. Is there something special that needs to be done to use LoadLibrary now that one has to deal with these awful manifest things First, an externa ...Show All

• Visual C++ Running a very simple Win32 app... / VS2005pro & MFC: Same thing?

  Hi! I have installed VC++ 2005 Express and the Platform SDK according to the instructions on MSDN: http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/express/visualc/usingpsdk/default.aspx Compiling and running the following program on the dev computer works like a charm: http://www.winprog.org/tutorial/simple_window.html I then changed to release-mode, turned off debugging in the project properties and copied the .exe to another computer without VC++ 2005 Express on.

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. lost device in multiple device scenario

  i'm using multiple devices to render multiple windows, on loosing a device my d3dDevice->Reset() function fails. i'm releasing all the resources allocated for that window on loosing th device. do i have to release all the other devices and their resources in such case what could be possible reason that the device reset fails The easiest way to understand that sort of issue is to use direct3d debug runtime using the control panel and activate all debug functions you can. It'll certainly display relevant informations in the debug output concerning the problem. Concerning your specific issue, be sure to wait that IDirect3DDevice9::TestCooperativeLevel returns D3DERR_DEVICENOTRESET before yo ...Show All

  Hi, I am using a FTP client in my application. This FTP client is a freeware for .NET version1.1. It works fine for all files except two files.
