• Visual C++ Getting Error Description.

  Hello Everyone, Is there any way i get the Error Description or Exceptions Description when i use try { --- Some code here. } catch(...) { --Exception Descrption .. } I want to get the description in the catch block, is it possible if so then how can i get Thanks If you've got no way of narrowing the amount of possible exceptions down, there's really no reliable way of reporting an error back to the user. You should look through documentation, split the catch block into several pieces, and take any steps necessary to know exactly which exceptions can occur. ...Show All

• Visual C# PathGradientBrush and the OutofMemory Exception

  I've recently been using the PathGradientBrush at work, and I've found that when it goes to create a new instance it throws an OutOfMemoryException every time. I've tried a clean reboot and it still does it, I've tried making sure barely anything is in memory and it still does it. The worst of it is, I've tried to execute the same code on my home PC and it works fine. Anyone got any ideas as to what might be causing the OutOfMemoryException at work Thanks very much for that. It did help, and the exception isn't thrown when instantiating the PathGradientBrush. Instead, I now get an ArgumentException when I try to apply a new ColorBlend to the InterpolationColors. I've checked to make sure it's c ...Show All

• Visual C# curve length & area problem

  greetings, can anyone help me about calculating the length and the area of a curve/closed curve I urgently need help, code or just the method ... I'm using .net 2005, c#. and I'm drawing the curve with using simply the points. thanks in advance. Hi,   to calculate the length of the curve you will need to know the length of the circumference of the circle and the angle of the arc, so: Circumference = Pi * diameter Length of arc = Circumference * angle of arc (in degrees) / 360   The area of circle = Pi * r^2 Area will be: (angle of arc / 360) * area   So in C# it would go something like: //Your values double circleRadius = 12; double ang ...Show All

• Visual Studio Tools for Office VSTO 2005 - Problem loading excel file from web server URL caused by IE Information Bar.

  Hi, I have a problem loading an excel report from a url on a web page . In the system I am developing I want to keep the excel report data in a database and load it into an excel file to the display to the user when requested. The user can browse the reports currently saved in the system via a web page which is also looking at the database. When the user clicks on a report link on the web page a httphandler on the web server intercepts the call, sets the reportid recieved in a url parameter as a cached item in the server document and then streams the excel document back to the client. When excel opens on the client it reads the cached item and then calls a web service to populate the data in the worksheet using the report id. I am trying ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista .NET AutoUpdate for Software

  I have an existing program that has an automatic software updater. The software is a monitoring program and should always be running. Process: Check internet for newer version. If found, rename the running program to "appname2.exe" After renaming, download the new version. Computer is rebooted and at that time, the software silently deleted the appname2.exe I've tried this on Vista and found a problem. The "silent delete" now prompts the user (admin level) if it's ok to delete the file. For now, I've modified the software to work on vista by renaming the old program and placing it in a program directory sub folder. THe program is only 400 kb so I'm not worried about size - and updates are rare. Thi ...Show All

• SQL Server Determine Processor Architecture for SQL Server 2005

  Determine Processor Architecture for SQL Server 2005 I like the new features in SERVERPROPERTY but there's a huge, glaring oversight in my opinion: it doesn't return the processor architecture. I'm trying to write a detailed server info collection script and (1) use only TSQL, and (2) have it return the processor architecture. Here's what I have so far: SELECT SERVERPROPERTY('InstanceName') AS [InstanceName] , SERVERPROPERTY('ServerName') AS [ServerName] , @@VERSION AS Version , CASE WHEN CHARINDEX('Intel X86',@@VERSION)<>0 THEN '32-bit' WHEN CHARINDEX('Intel IA-64',@@VERSION)<>0 THEN '64-bit' -- WHEN CHARINDEX('x86-64',@@VERSION)<>0 THEN '64-bit' -- WHEN CHARINDEX('AMD64',@@VERSION)<>0 THEN '64-bit' -- W ...Show All

• SQL Server Newbie: please help with NS 2000 runtime error

  We have a new big project coming, which will use Notification Services. So, I bought a book: "Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Notification Services" by Shyam Pather and did all steps including installing NS, setting up the environment, and creating the first sample NS application (Chapter03). Every single step was successful, no errors. I am pretty sure I didn't miss anything. All went well until I copied a sampla data file into the EventsWatchDirectory. At this point, the file name almost immediately changes to EventData.xml.20060908-160948.370.err (digits are different at every attempt, but please note the extension). I open this file using Notepad, and it is the exact copy of the original .xml file: <eventData>  &nbs ...Show All

• Smart Device Development Designer issues after CF2.0 SP1 installation

  I just installed the CF2.0 SP1 patch. Seeing other posts, I uninstalled the Beta 1 version I had used in developing some apps (because I needed more control over the datagrid), reinstalled the original CF2.0 from my DVD, and then loaded the SP1 patch. Initially, everything in my projects looked fine. However, after rebooting my machine later in the day, I now get designer errors on any form with a grid control. The main part of the message is: Could not load type 'System.Windows.Forms.DataGrid' from assembly 'System.Windows.Forms.DataGrid, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=969db8053d3322ac, Retargetable=Yes'.
