• Smart Device Development Management of phone calls

  Hi, I would want to be able to control incoming and outgoing calls. I know I can detect them with an object of SystemState. Now, there are several problems: - Can I detect them if the events occurs out from my application - Can I finish a phone call If it it possible: - I don't know if I can close an incoming phone call or if only the OS is able to do it. - I don't also know if it is possible to finish an outgoing phone call that I haven't initialized into my programme. Anyone can help me Thanks a lot. Alvaro Penarrubia Thanks, but... I think I don't know how to use the example to which you refer.

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. MS - CreateBuffer - Init Limitations

  It seems that D3D10 unnecessarily limits your options for initializing buffers. You can't partially init a buffer, as there is no size for the init data. It must assume that you're filling the entire buffer. Also, placing multiple resources into one buffer is hindered by the fact that there is only a single data source. For example, if I load 5 meshes, odds are I have 5 pointers to data. If I want this in an immutable buffer I either have to make 5 seperate buffers, or string together the buffers first, then pass that off to CreateBuffer. It's trivial to append the data myself before CreateBuffer, but it just seems unnecessarily wasteful to do an alloc and set of copies, just for D3D to copy it yet again. How are other people appr ...Show All

• Windows Forms "Parameter incorrect" error adding Setup project to solution

  If I try to add a Setup Project to my solution, I get an error stating the parameter is incorrect.  This also happens if I try to create a new solution based on the Setup Project.  Any help Robert, I've had a chance to try your suggestion. Removing the key had no effect on the problem. some additional information: I've moved the project to several different computers and they all exhibit the same error. the error occurs immediately after the build is finished and the "deploy started" message appears. I do have connectivity with Active Sync (I can manually copy my app into my run directory and i can use the "device connect" in Tools in VS2005. So I'm reasonably convinced that this is an artifact of the ...Show All

• Visual FoxPro cryptography failure

  I use _cryptapi class of the _CRYPT class library to encrypt limited amount of information: ids and passwords. They are in a table and the table feeds treeview items on demand. Before appearing in treeview the field values are automatically decrypted. Everything has been working fine until I noticed a problem yesterday. I have done most of development on C: drive but recently began moving the whole project to a G: drive since I set a new OS up on that partition. It is a bootable partition. If the encryption done on C: partition it can only be decrypted on that same partition. On partition G: everything is garbled. If I encrypted an item on G: partition I can decrypt it only here, it will be garbled if I run the application on C: I ch ...Show All
