• .NET Development Form Post from mfc dll to aspx page

  Hi, I am trying do this: 1) client downloads a MFC dll (GUI-less), loads information from his personal information, ie a loan, 2) dll does a "Form post" to a aspx page, where the info will be parsed out using something like Request.Form(). However, there will be no response sent back to the dll, 3) when the user input additional info onto the aspx page, hit submit, all info will be sent to another company's server, where a response will be sent to my company's server. Can someone shed some lights on how to do step 2, ie how to do a form post or post without response from a MFC dll (I need to use MFC because all of my company's code is built in MFC) to a aspx page Thanks, ...Show All

• Visual C++ variables does not contain right values in debug mode !

  Hello, while I was trying to use one the INTEL MKL solvers, I found some weird behavior in the debug mode.

• SQL Server exists vs nonempty

  the AS2005 documentation states that nonemptycrossjoin is deprecated and exists or nonempty should be used instead. i am a bit confused by the intended usage for these two functions. the documentation says that exits performs what autoexits does. however, autoexits only pertains to attribute from the same dimension. on the other hand, sets from different dimensions can be passed to the exists function. if no measure group is specified, exactly how does exists eliminate tuples is exists(set_x, set_y) equivalent to nonempty(set_x, set_y) this might be a trivial question, but since i pretty new to MDX, i could really use some advice here. I tried to explain this in a little bit more detail here: http://www.sqljunkies.com/WebLog/mosh ...Show All

• .NET Development Activator.CreateInstance

  hi, Can someone help me with this scenario I have a client with 2 versions. 1.0 and 2.0. client 1.0 will create a remote object of Server 1.0 and client 2.0 should create a remote object of server 2.0. This is what is happening...when client 2.0 calls Activator.CreateInstance on the Remote Type, its creating instance of server 1.0 which makes sense as there is no redirection on the server from 1.0 to 2.0. What I would like to ask is, is there anyway for the client to specify in Activator.CreateInstance to create the instance from assembly version 2.0 on the remote server rather than 1.0 version I would really appreciate some help here, thanks rb http://windowssdk.msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bbab2dx1.aspx S ...Show All

• Visual C++ Can't find entry point for function in C++ Dll called by Visual Basic 6.0

  Does anyone know why I would be getting the above type of error (Run time error '453') when I try to call a function in a Dll created in Visual C++ from a Visual Basic project I've tried just about every method of creating it that I could find on the internet and I would like to get some new ideas. I can send code to be looked at if necessary, but it wouldn't be the only method I've tried. I didn't save all of them. Feel free to send me an email. It's Visual basic C++ 6.0 which is what I wrote the Dll in. I tried several methods of creating the DLL including using the wizard and also doing it without the wizard. When I do it without the wizard the cpp file that gets compiled to generate the dll has a case statement in iiit that depen ...Show All

• Visual Basic Multithreaded application, thread not exiting.

  ok here it goes I must be doing something way off but it makes sense to me just not to VB.NET which would be a huge problem. Anyways I'll explain what I am doing than give code examples. basicly I've declared a thread in a module file where all my variables are declared for the enitre application, than it calls the thread from the main form and runs a sub routine located in a different class (I call it "work" class, this is where all the code that actually does anything is stored), the thread executes and begins dumping database data no problem, then when I open up my disconnect dialogue window and click yes to disconnect and tell my thread to quit it never quites in fact it just hangs the program, not sure why.

  Can anyone provide a c# example of how I can copy / reuse XPS resources In creating a "template" system, I'm trying to: 1) read an XPS document; 2) replace place-holder text with actual text; 3) write new XPS document. My works so far leave an XPS document that when opened gives the error "AddFontResourceEx failed" :( Any help would greatly be appreciated.

• Visual Basic Variable Declaration Shortcuts

  I am working on a project for a customer and the previous developer had used shrotcuts like ! , % , $, # when declaring their variables. I have never used these before and cannot find any documentation on these. Has anyone ever used them before Hi, These are also available in VB.Net. If it is recommended that we all stop using them then I will continue to use the Convert CLASS. Code Block Dim myNum As Object myNum = 8.0!
