• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. How can I got the true video memory information

  I use two fuctions to get video memory information.One is the getcaps in Directdraw. The other is getavailabletexturemem in directx9. But the two fuctions just return the video memory changes when I play a movie by realplayer. When I just show a picture in Mspaint, the video memory information doesn't change at all. To confirm my video memory information, I use the caps viewer which ship with directx9. But no different result was found out. So is there any other function to get video memory information Why the video memory doesn't change at all when show a picture thanks. Think about it this way: video memory has two sections. First you have video buffer memory, that is used to display the actual monitor image. This is A ...Show All

What is going on If I close the DTS window my editing capabilities instantly return. ...Show All

• Visual Studio automated check in

  How would one automate the check in for a project with in the solution I have the Project instance in a ProjectItem var. We are using TFS for our source control, not sure if it matters or not. Thanks Wayne You can use some ExecuteCommand methods to do this, as Carlos stated, but the SourceCodeControl object on the DTE interface deliberately does not have a CheckIn method for one very good reason - automated checkin can be dangerous. When checking out files, if there is a merge conflict you can only cause problems on your computer and your enlistment of that source code. However, when trying to check in, then one of four things can happen - 1) No conflicts and everything works OK. 2) No conflicts so it che ...Show All

• Visual Studio Tools for Office VSTO Outlook 2007 Form Region Question

  i want to create a new form region. On MSDN it says "If you specify a value of ReplaceAll for the <formRegionType> tag, the form region will replace the entire form, resulting in a new form for a derived message class." this is what i want. I do not want to tamper with the actual Contacts form itself. Rather I want to create a new form which derives from the Contacts form. However I cannot find any more documentation on how to do this. Is it possible to get the code from the voice mail demo which is shown here http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms788695.aspx . This demo seems to do what I want to achieve. Any pointers much appreciated. I got stuck on this too - the key on th ...Show All

• Visual C# culture independent

  hi how can I develope a culture independent program I had problems with numbers and dates in deferent cultures and in every parsing I check the culture and its a hard work to do and I am sure that there is a better way to do. ashk1860 is spot on, but you can add another line to read it from the browser if its a WebApp : Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture = CultureInfo.CreateSpecificCulture(Request.UserLanguages[0]); Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture = new CultureInfo(Request.UserLanguages[0]); If its not a WebApp, it should just work, .net should just use the cluture of the system.

• Windows Forms Splitter resize doesn't work

  Hi, I have a control that contains a treeview, a listview and a control of my own (the layout can be seen here: http://i115.photobucket.com/albums/n311/ro88o/layout.gif ). I insert my own control (number 1 in the picture) first and dock it to the bottom of the main control. I then insert a splitter above this. Next I place a panel above this and use a Fill dock. Inside this panel I place my treeview (no.2) and dock it left. I place a splitter next to this treeview and dock this left also. I then place my listview (no.3) next to this and dock it to fill. When I load my control the bottom splitter above my own control works fine, however the second splitter between the tree and listview does not work, the mouse cursor doesn't eve ...Show All

  I have created a windows service in .net and a form to control and monitor the service which I would like to open onStart event of the service. I have tried allowing the service access to the desktop and calling the form but have had issues with this. I think the best way to do this would be to run the form .exe.

Or does anyone know of any better ways to accomplish this If the help you need is on how to make your form know about the service and control it, then the answer is in ahmedilyas's last post. However, if you want to know how to make your form run at the startup or at the service sta ...Show All
