• Visual Basic Watching a process.

  I'm having trouble with this. Basically what I'm trying to accomplish is a server restarter. It needs to look for the server to close. I was thinking just look for the process to close. But I'm not sure how to do it. Could someone help please Sorry I should have been more specific. Server is refering to software and no it's not registered as a service. I could have it registered as one. But I would much rather understand how to do it this way. ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) A question on DataContract

  Hi! I'm new to WCF, and I've got a question regarding DataObjects / DataContract. As far as I understand, DataConract provides a way to send custom objects, serialized in one of the formats, across the wire. So, at the server side I could have data objects that implemented properties and methods to manipulate those properties (or at least setters with some business checking). That's good. Now, if I build a proxy using VS2005, it reads the contract and constructs a "copy" of my class, with all the published properties, but of course, all business logic goes away. That is logical in many ways (louse coupling, interoperability,...), but let's say I'd like to use the same implementation (shared data objects assembly ) on ser ...Show All

• SQL Server windows programs to run on PDA's

  I am moving a VS 2003 Pocket PC app to VS 2005 and when I deploy the app from Visuyal Studio 2005 two sqlce cabs are deployed (in addition to the sqlce30 ones) namely sqlce20.dev.ppc.wce4.armv4.CAB and sqlce20.ppc.wce4.armv4.CAB. Now as I have documented in another thread ( SQL 2005 Mobile : The file is not a valid database file ) this gives me problems when I want to access the database being produced by replication. So I'm trying to eliminate the need for these cab files. My pocket PC application uses two of my DLLs the first of which is my Business Objects. When I deploy this to my PDA I get the following build output ------ Build started: Project: BO, Configuration: Release Any CPU ------ C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Fram ...Show All

• Windows Live Developer Forums Announcing v4 - 3D Mapping!

  Announcing v4 - 3D Mapping! Today at 2PM (PST) we launched v4 of the map control, and with it some pretty amazing additions to the VE mapping world. You can read all of the blogs and marketing materials (and of course, go to maps.live.com) to get all the “wow” stuff. Here I just want to highlight what I think matters to VE developers. The Good First, we also updated the v3 control (now, v3.2). The big change here—and this is also in the v4 control—is the ability to now turn off the location disambiguation dialog and easily build your own. Check the “Finding Information” topic in the SDK. The iSDK also shows how to do this, of course. The Great On to v4: The big change, of course, is that you can now sho ...Show All

• Visual C++ Template Export

  Hello, I follow a somewhat strict coding standard for all of my programs, and each time I write a program I include a file banner and at least a function banner for the main function. I also make a change to the environment which consists of setting the runtime library to multithreaded debug (/MTd). It has become somewhat of an annoyance to do this for every project, so I decided it would be in my best interest to make a template. My projects to date have consisted of a single (.c extension) source code file, and for the time being will most likely not change from that. After creating a new Win32 Console Application (empty project), and adding a single .c file, I cannot choose File -- Export Template. (It is grayed out). Any help on ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) databinding bug, or am i just expecting too much? - master/detail with a combobox in the detail

  Hi, I think i may have run into a bug, maybe you'll say it's not a bug but it's not how i would have expected the framework to handle this particular case anyway... ....I'm running Vista with the feb CTP I'm setting the windows datacontext equal to an instance of a class that inherits from DependencyObject (trying to embrace the new way of handling changes in the UI / class). Then i have a listbox with it's itemssource property bound to a DependencyProperty called "Selected". I also then have a grid with it's data context set to the same path=Selected so that it shows the detail of the item selected in the listbox. This all works fine, the controls in that grid are bound to properties of the select item and i have those properties ...Show All

• Visual Studio Deploying .NET Application with CR

  So I've built a working application in VS .NET 2003 with Crystal Report XI and have created a setup file and all that. But when I goto run the report on another machine that does not have crystal report anywhere on it, and when my application goes to render a page I come up with the error "Get page or get totaller failed". What is the cause of this and how can I prevent this from happening on any machine this program gets deployed on Thanks!
