• Visual C++ hiding LNK warnings

  Basically, I want to get rid off all the LNK warning For ex, LNK4099, or LNK4204, or any other one. I am linking my debug lib with a third party release lib. That's why I am getting those. Is there some kind of "pragma" for the linking step to hide warnings There was the undocumented #pragma comment(linker, "/ignore:4099") but it does not work anymore on Visual Studio 7.1. I is annoying to look at hundreds of these warnings rolling down on my screen. Thank you. Well, good news and bad news. The good news is that you have the correct syntax. The bad news is that is no longer supported as of VS 2003. Sorry. :( http://www.thescripts.com/forum/thread264543.html ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. 2D Code slow on 360 but fine on Pc

  Hey I'm fairly new to programming and have created a basic 2D vertical shooter for a university project. Now the code is very dirty and needs alot of optimizing but I am new to all this so not entirely sure how to do it properely. As it stands everything is done in the game1.cs code file.

• SQL Server Report Model Generating Out of Memory Error

  I am creating a report model of a large database with a few hundred tables, the idea being that the users can report on any part of the database and create perspectives for the areas they want users to have access to (In the past the users have moaned about report models in a CA product called Eureka as the models are too small, perspectives seemed a way of allowing one large model but limiting each perspective to a set of users ). Unfortunately presumably due to the size of the model visual studio is giving me an out of memory error when adding new tables. I have a two dual core xeons with 4Gig of ram and I'm running XP Pro 64bit with the developer edition of 2005 with service pack 1 and VS2005 is using around 1/2 a Gb. Is this a known i ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) svcUtil / WSDL exposing private variables instead of public methods??

  Hello all, I've been experimenting with WCF service exposing my a facade & common layer (that sit ahead of business / dal) but am having a strange issue with WSDL metadata generated by svcUtil that I hope you can point me in the right direction with.: For testing, my simple service is comprised of a 'common' layer that has all of my standard structures by which I will communicate data with across the layers (simple objects that expose public properties like [ID] and [CustomerName] which are mapped with get / set methods to private variables). For simplicity, all of the private variable names are prefixed with "_" and all public properties are generally the same name as the variable without the leading underscore. Th ...Show All

• .NET Development Deny access to all my .mdb in a directory

  how can I deny access to download to a .mdb file in a directory and If I deny access my application can open it to read data Thanks I'm not sure if I completely understand your question, but you can make the folder where the database resides read-only for all users (except for an administrator). This will prevent any files from being copied to the folder. The Access database must then be opened for read-only access by your application. ...Show All

• Windows Forms Heavy operation and Windows.Forms.Timer

  Hello. I have a form that display time in seconds resolution in the status bar. The time is used for some calculations during GUI operations. I have "Load Run Data" action which does several communications and then setup and load received XMLs into DataSet object. I do it in the UI thread in order to block menu and mouse input. Sometimes the loading operation takes more than 1 second so the displayed time becomes invalid. I need to find a valid solution to do the loading without hurting timer. I tried to use Threading.Timer without effect. It continues working but hurted by the higher priority thread (UI thread), so the time is still incorrect. Any suggestions. I am interested to know what Microsoft's default approach for this ki ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) How to handle creation/destruction of PerSession server objects?

  Hello! Could you please tell me, how to handle the creation and destruction service contracts handling object working on PerSession basis For example, when client connects for the first time, handling object on server is created and I need to put this object to internal list and to notify server internal objects, that client has been just connected. When for example, client connection is aborted forcefully (for example, connection problems from client side), I guess WCF should finalize object, that was handling client requests. But I need to notify some server objects about client has disconnected and remove the client from internal list before finalizing. Can here standard procedure (constructor(), Finalize()) be used Finalize is not ver ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Windows SDK January missing Graphedit components?

  Previously when in DXSDK the graphedit has used proppage.dll that is used then viewing pin property pages etc for example. The latest Windows SDK does not have this and GraphEdit in it is giving "requested property page could not be displayed" in every turn... So should that proppage.dll still be included in the SDK or is this something that is being changed Can you, or someone else, please upload proppage.dll from the Windows Server 2003 R2 Platform SDK to an accessible location It feels like overkill to download the whole SDK just for this one missing file. ...Show All

• SQL Server Got BIDS working, was there another way?

  i re-installed the SQLEXPR_TOOLKIT.EXE several times(4) trying to get the BIDS part to work. Each time i had the issue of it looking for the devenev.exe as others have mentioned. I gave up on a 5th install and went for the unsupported option of running vs_setup , after the toolkit.exe dumped all the install files to its temporary directory i went in there and ran it sperately... but essentially i did it the same way as this method... http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx PostID=368549&SiteID=1 while this did work, it seems to be the unsupported way. http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx PostID=665067&SiteID=1 Im not opposed to going back and doing it right, but was there ever a conclusion as to why the BIDS prog ...Show All
