• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) IsTypeOf in msl's EntityTypeMapping?

  Hello! Let's assume EntityType C inherits from EntityType B which inherits from EntityType A. As far as I understand, the TypeName attribute in the EntityTypeMapping element should be specified with IsTypeOf and for C it should be specified without IsTypeOf, but what about the TypeName attribute in the EntityTypeMapping element for EntityType B, should it be specified with or without IsTypeOf Perhaps it would have been easier to figure out if the IsTypeOf construction had been documented. Best regards, Henrik Dahl I tried to implement a sub-inherited class with table-per.subclass model, but I can't add objects of EntityC. My entities: Owner inherits from Administrator inherit ...Show All

• Smart Device Development WEB Browser problem with WINDOWS CE

  Hi, I am targetting my Pocket PC 2003 application to Treo 700WX device. Almost it is working in the same way. but in some areas I observed the differences. 1) My application is running very very slower in Treo 700WX emulator than it was running in Pocket Pc 2003 emulator. I want speed up my application as it was running in Pocket PC 2003 emulator. 2) When I add some text to WebBrowser It shows one progress bar( shows "connecting" ) and then adds text. after adding the text webbrowser looks like it is getting refreshed continuosly even though i dint use any to refresh. The same worked properly in Pocket PC 2003 Emulator with out this problems. I want to remove that progress bar and I dont want refreshi ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Question about database and C# commands

  I’m making a program that uses a SQL Express database and i have a table called Utilizador (user) and it’s primary key ID_Utilizador wich is an automatic int counter (1-2-3....etc), and i cant alter its value. What i need is to find a way in C# 2005 Express to know the next ID number that the next row to be inserted will have without knowing the ID number of the last row to be inserted. Maybe there is a command for this but i cant find it.

• .NET Development ReadLine() acting weird

  OK I've been really humbled. I've spent at least 8 hours trying to solve this problem and I've gotten nowhere! I am getting really weird behavior and am not sure how to proceed. Here's the problem and the steps I've taken to remedy the "bug". This works perfectly well stand alone with line 18 commented out. Problem: The Console.ReadLine(); within the homework project (I'll refer to this as HW) returns the cursor to the beginning of the line it is reading after input and Enter. Here's the test module. 1 public static void ReserveMedia() 2 { 3 string k = ""; 4 string _reserverFor; 5 int _ordinal; 6 while (k != "-1") 7 { 8 Console.Write("Please select a number: & ...Show All

• Visual C# File.Copy gets NotSupportedException or, does it?

  Hello, I have an application that copies files. fairly simple. I call the IO.File.Copy() method to do it. however, with some files I get an error. "The given path's format is not supported." The files this occur on are random and doesn't seem to tag to a specific file as if I rerun the program again it will copy the file that failed before without error. I figured it was just a problem with the string variable I used for the method as if it was incorrect or something. Here comes the weird part. I checked the location where the file is suppose to be copied to and the file is there. The exception is raised after the file is copied. I checked the file itself and there is no corruptions. I also checked the string variable b ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. bug with adding components, or did i do something wrong?

  i have started working on a pong clone, and with hardly any resources available, i've been doing my best. i saw the game components video and using that and some forum posts i have found here, got a menu component set up that would draw a menu. just some basic stuff. the problem comes when i drag & drop the menu component onto the design view of my Pong.cs file. i click on build, and get this error: "The type name 'Menu' does not exist in the type 'Pong.Pong'". i am able to fix the error, and the project compiles and runs as expected by changing the line this.menu1 = new Pong.Menu(); to this this.menu1 = new Menu(); in my Pong.Designer.cs file. i noticed the comments in that file stating not to edit it from the code view, but ...Show All

• .NET Development Connection string for a local visual sql databases (*.mdf)

  Previously I've used access databases for different application which I create in Visual Basic (Visual Studio 2005). This time I need just a small db with one table (at this point), and I noticed the 'SQL database' (An empty SQL database for local data) at the project-> add new item option in Visual Studio. I created the database, and added a table. Both the database and the table itself can be viewed from the 'server explorer' window under 'data connections'. Everything is great up to this point. But how do I connect from my application to this database I guess there's no real SQL server running. I tried to create the connection string using a new.udl file, but it seems that none of the OLE connections can be used towards the mdf fi ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Hashtable problems...

  Hi folks, I have been searching for nearly two days now, and it still escapes me.... I have a hashtable (tableTOP) that I fill with other hashtables (tableCHILD). Hierarchically it looks like this: tableTOP: key = "A" value = tableCHILD (1) key = "B" value = tableCHILD (2) ...... etc tableCHILD: key = "1" value = "any value" key = "2" value = "any value" .... etc. The funny thing is that when I add a value to the tableCHILD (2), it also gets added to tableCHILD (1). Like: tableCHILD.add (key:= "3", value:= "anything") TableTOP.Item( "B") = tableCHILD ( changing the value of element with key "B") ...Show All

  Hi all -- I've been working on a 4th Series of XNA Tutorials, which deals with advanced terrain rendering. This series is completely new; it is not a translation of one of my MDX series. The graphical part of the series has been finished, so you can already have a look at some screenshots: XNA Tutorials Series 4: Advanced terrain You can expect the first chapters somewhere next week.

• Visual Basic Hiding, but not overiding or replacing, a inherited property

  My last thread was locked before I could get my question anwsered, but i realize that the moderater did it because he thought my question had already been anwsered, which is my fault because I did not explain my question clearly; I am a poor writer of English. I know that the forums must be kept clean, so let me refrase my question: I want to make the Height property not useable from outside the class I inherited from usercontrol, but it is not virtual so I can NOT use the override and browsable(flase) method, I cannot use the new key word because I still need the height property inside of my class. Any suggestions would be much appreciated. Right. He seemed more interested in hiding it from the designe ...Show All
