• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Window in XAML Browser Application

  Is it possible to show a window in a Browser application I get a security exception when I try, what security level is required to do it, and how can I achieve this security level We are replacing a Java Applet embeded in a web page but it absolutly needs to pop windows. A lot has been said comparing WBA and Java applet on this forum and people seem to suggest that it is similar. No, you can't show a window in an XBAP app. MS has caught lots of heat over this limitation and is supposed to lift that restriction in a future release. Let's keep our fingers crossed... ...Show All

• .NET Development NGen very slow!

  That's funny, I was just experimenting with ngen to see what kind of performance impact it has. And my very tiny test program with some vector structs runs twice as slow when ngen-ed! Here's the test program: using System; using System.Collections.Generic; using System.Text; namespace PerfTest { public struct Vector3D { public double x, y, z; //static Vector3D() { // Console.WriteLine("Static constructor!"); //} public Vector3D(double x, double y, double z) { this.x = x; this.y = y; this.z = z; } public Vector3D Add(Vector3D v) { return new Vector3D(x + v.x, y + v.y, z + v.z); } public static Vector3D Add(Vector3D u, Vector3D v) { return new ...Show All

• SQL Server Dynamic Security Stored Procedure Repeatedly Called

  I have implemented an SSAS stored procedure for dynamic security and I call this stored procedure to obtain the allowed set filter. To my supprise, the stored procedure is being called repeatedly many times (more than 10) upon establishing the user session. Why is this happening 10 minutes to filter 40,000 members out of 2 million is way too much. I've written sprocs which were able to do comparable filtering in a matter of seconds. Of course, it depends on the logic inside sproc. Would you share more details please - what is the criteria for the filtering ...Show All

• .NET Development Need to merge 2 tables in Dataset and only get the matching accounts in one table?

  I have a dataset with a account table and another table that contains transactions for accounts in the account table. I create a crystal report based off an inner join query of the two tables but takes way too long to generate. I was told if I can get them into one table that would fix my speed issue. I'm thinking if there is some way to maybe create a merged table of the two together and only getting data from both tables where the Account# field matchup Any help or ideas would be great! When I include more than one table from my dataset using a join in the crystal report builder wizard, it takes hours for the report to generate. Its relation is a one to many and shouldn't take more than a few seconds retrieve the information. ...Show All
