• Visual C++ C2027 Error: Full class declaration required: Bug?

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Connection problems

  I've been getting the following System.ServiceModel.CommunicationException in a service client: An error occurred while receiving the HTTP response to http://myService.svc. This could be due to the service endpoint binding not using the HTTP protocol. This could also be due to an HTTP request context being aborted by the server (possibly due to the service shutting down). See server logs for more details. The client code is as follows: MyServiceClient service = new MyServiceClient(); List<myReturnType> myReturnCollection = service.ReturnList(someInt, someEnum.Item1); myReturnCollection.AddRange(service.ReturnList(someInt, someEnum.Item2)); myReturnCollection.AddRange(service.ReturnList(someInt, someEnum.Item3)); myReturnCo ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Can't delete file after disposing AudioVideoPlayback.Video

  .Net 2.0 C# VS2005 SQL Server 2005 I am developing a Windows Forms training application using numerous avi files and AudioVideoPlayback.Video to play them. The file names are stored in a SS2K5 database and the files themselves are encrypted using System.Security.Cryptology. I decrypt the file into a temporary file and play that file. The problem I have is that I cannot delete the file until the application exits. I have tried Video.Dispose() and it doesn't release the file lock. The player is an MDI child form.

• Visual C# Passing properties as delegates

  Let's say I have the following: class Foo { private int myInt; public void SetInt(int i){myInt = i;} } And then somewhere else, I have this: delegate void MyDelegate(int); // Define a delegate that matches the signature of the Foo.SetInt function class Bar{ void DoStuff(MyDelegate someDelegate){ .... } // A function taking the delegate as an argument } Now I can easily pass SetInt as a delegate to the DoStuff function, no problem there. But what if I'd used a set property instead of the SetInt function, like so class Foo { private int myInt; public int MyInt{ set {myInt = value;} } } Is there any way I can then pass the MyInt property as a delegate to another function I suppose I could do it by wrapping it in an ...Show All

• Visual C# C# Conversion Issue From Java Encryption...

  Well folks, seems like I'm in a bit of a pickle here. Converted info from a Oracle backend to SQL Server and one of which was a column in a table with all encrypted values for a password field. At the same time also converting the java code that accesses the oracle into .NET thus the problem. This is the Java code that does the encrypting of the password (deriving from the java.security.* heirchachy) : MessageDigest sha = MessageDigest.getInstance("MD5"); byte[] tmp = passwd.getBytes(); sha.update(tmp); password = new String(sha.digest()); Going by that it seems that to match what's in the database the user input would have to a) First become converted into a byte (with encoding perhaps being taken into consideration) b) The ...Show All

• Windows Forms UserControl resizing in a container

  Hello, I have a user control in a tab page, which is in a tab control section. Whenever the main form window resizes itself, I can't get the user control to redraw in the newly available width. I set the SetStyle() method with a flag of ResizeRedraw, but no avail. How do I resize Do I have to do it programmatically Or tap into a resize event Hey, The tab page that displays the user control is programmatically created. I have the user control with dockstyle to fill as you mentioned. However, it fills fine; when the program container resizes, the user control doesn't repaint. So when going from half-sized to maximize, it still shows the half-sized text. What can I do to repaint this user contr ...Show All

• Visual Basic Very simple question; how do I make the program wait, like in seconds?

  Can anyone tell me what to use to make the program wait for a specified amount of time I've searched, but I can't really find the information I need. Thanks. you could also use a timer if you wish, which would be better in the sense that your application won't hang since Thread.Sleep() pauses the application (like it hangs, unresponsive) as the timer approach won't but wait until the tick has been completed/raised. You could during this disable the form to prevent the user from clicking buttons etc... but perhaps also put in a status message like "please wait..." or something. ...Show All
