  Hello all, I keep getting these compile time errors when I try to use Office.CommandBar in my code : Error 4 The type 'Microsoft.Office.Core.CommandBars' is defined in an assembly that is not referenced.

Suppose id is the name of this new columns. That way you can later get back the data in the order you want by doing ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Custom Rule - Counting number of AcquireReaderLock calls in a single code path

  Hi, I am trying to write a rule that will check if AcquireReaderLock is matched with ReleaseReaderLock properly. To do this, I need to explore each code path (I think), to count the number of times each was called in a specific path. Does anyone have any information on how to do this I assume it is possible since DisposeMethodsShouldCallBaseClassDispose checks different code paths. Thanks, -David DisposeMethodsShouldCallBaseClassDispose is actually part of our old non-extendable data flow analysis engine. This engine has actually been removed from the latest builds. Detecting and following code paths is quite a complex and advanced problem, something that unfortunately we don't provide out-of-the-box ...Show All

• Visual Basic Encryption - Storing Private keys

  Hi, I'm building an application to handle licensing some software i'm writing. I'm using the RijndaelManaged cryptography objects to encrypt an decrypt the license codes and database login info etc. At present i have the Key and Initialisation vector values stored as byte arrays private to my cryptography class. The code works fine. The problem is that when i use a decompiler on my dll the Key value byte array is fully visible, along with my Encryption and Decryption methods, thus rendering the security useless. My question is how do people actually store the Key value so that no one has access to it. I can't find any mention of how people actually do this, only how to use crytography once you have the key. I'm almost tempted to g ...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

• Software Development for Windows Vista Digitally signed exe gets runtime error when launched on Vista...

  ...but when the digital signature is removed the exe is launched properly. According to Microsofts requirements for the "Certified for Windows Vista" certification all dlls, exes etc must be signed with a digital signature. We use a signature from VeriTest to sign our installation msi's according to the specifications for the "Designed for Windows XP" logo. When I sign our exe (a C++ application, not the msi) with that signature and try to launch it on Windows Vista, I get a runtime error. Has anyone ever experience a similar behavior If so, how did you solve it Thanks!! /Niklas Hi Niklas, I'm going through the certification process at the moment.

  I have a winforms application written in managed C++ using the .NET framework. Just today I added code to use stuff written in Pure C++. So in order to compile ok, I changed /clr:pure to /clr and everything compiled fine. But when I run the application, it gives me an error "This application has failed to start because MSVCP60D.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem". How do I fix this What did I screw up Thanks for your help!!

• Software Development for Windows Vista Add icon to themed menu

  Hi, I want to add icons to a standard popup menu and retains the Aero theming. I noticed the Organize popup menu in the Explorer window has icons and Aero theme. How can I do that Are there any code sample available The Vista platform SDK has no sample on menu theming. If I set the hbmpItem field in MENUITEMINFO to HBMMENU_CALLBACK and draw the icon using WM_DRAWITEM, the theming is lost. If I simply add a bitmap to the hbmpItem field, the result is even worst because the bitmap is drawn at the wrong place and no theming. Thanks, Herbert The short answer: 1) convert the icon to a pre-multiplied ARGB32 bitmap and assign that to hbmpItem along with setting MIIM_BITMAP in fMask. Use a 32bpp DIBSECTION bit ...Show All
