• Visual C++ How to access a program ported from C from other .net project?

  Hi, I am pretty new to C++ .Net and I need help on how to let my .Net programs accessing functions ported from a C program. What I have now is a solution that contains two projects. The first is a C++ .Net class library project and the second is a VB.Net project (doesn't have to be VB, it can be any other .net languages). What I need is to have the VB test program call functions from the C++ program. The C++ project is created by porting an existing C program. What I did was that I created a class library project using the C++ wizard. Then I added my existing C program (without any change at all), MyLib.c, into the project and removed all those generated files that I don't need. After fixing some issues, now I have the project co ...Show All

• Visual Studio Remote debugging a mixed DLL

  Hello, I've written a mixed DLL in Managed C++. This DLL is loaded from a native win32 service. I would like to remote debug managed code in this DLL. In VS2005, when attaching to the remote process : - Process Type for the service is T-SQL,Managed,x86. - "Attach to" edit box shows "Automatic : Native" So in this mode, I could only set a breakpoint in the native part of my DLL. This is working fine. But, even if I manually select Managed and Native checkboxes in the Code Type dialog, I'm still unable to set breakpoint in Native code (No Symbol has been loaded for this document) Sure there is a way to achieve what I need. TIA. Ok, found de solution myself... The PDB file must be copi ...Show All

• SQL Server Database Diagrams, SQL Server 2005

  Hi everyone, I was wondering if there is any way to generate a database diagram with foreign key relationships automatically generated between tables in SQL Server 2005... My initial investigations has yielded no, but I'd like to be sure. Thank you Chris The database diagramming tool won't automatically create foreign key contraints on your tables. You can explicitly create foreign key relationships in a diagram by clicking on one table and dragging the relationship line to the related table. If you have two existing tables with a foreign key relating them, the relationship line should automatically display in the diagram as soon as you add both tables to the diagram. Hope this helps, Steve ...Show All

• SQL Server Unable to retrieve column information in Flatfile connection within foreach loop container

  Hello, I am getting very frustrated! I have got a Foreach loop container which I am processing files within a folder. I have a flatfile connection manager which I have set up using a test file and have updated the expressions attribute to be the package variable I set up in the collection for the loop container however everytime I run it I get the error: 0xC0202094 cannot retrieve the column information from the flatfile connection manager. I can only guess that it is either the variable being passed to the connection manager or the way I set up the connection manager. When I msgbox the variable in a script component before the dataflow step, the variable for the file seems fine. Any suggestions are REALLY appreciated. Yours Jayne ...Show All

• SQL Server Instance and Application databases?

  Hi... I came across the terms "instance database" and "application database" in a book "MCITP 70-444: Optimizing and Maintaining... SQL Server 2005". Up until now, I thought there were "user databases" and "system databases." I found an article about these new terms here: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms166482.aspx Are these terms specific to Notification Services Thanks.... this book is talking about designing a database for the first time and giving consideration to long term growth. The "application-" and "instance databases" then came way out of left field and confused me. I have added this note about Notification ...Show All

• Visual C# Centering one form inside another

  Another Newbie question.... How would I need to write the code to open form2 centered within form1 when form2 is selected from a menu item on form1. forms1 and 2 are regular forms not MDI parent or child. I tried that and it didn't work, form2 still opens off somewhere else on the page.

• SQL Server deleting a data viewer causes BI Studio to crash

  Is there any way I can remove the data viewer (or even the whole data flow task) so that BIDS doesn't crash. Whenever I delete the data viewer, or the objects that the flow is linking to, or the data flow task, or even the sequence the data flow task is contained in, BIDs crashes. thanks See! Crazy stuff. Do you get results in the data viewer If you can identify where it thinks it is, add one there and delete it. It seems to me that when that has happened to me there was no data displaying in it. The problem is that you can't replicate the scenario that causes this problem, so you can't open a ticket with Microsoft because they won't be able to reproduce it, even though many of us have had this problem ...Show All
