• Visual J# vjc throwing an exception

  I do not have this problem when compiling from VS 2005. This started after I uninstalled the J# redist and then reinstalled it using the MSBuild created bootstrapper program (testing it). When I build using nant which calls devenv to build the solution I get the popup asking me what program I want to use to debug vjc because it hit a problem. Even weirder, the compile continues - it does not return an error. But the rest of the projects are not compiled. What is going on and how do I fix it thanks - dave Ok, now I tried running from nant and got the popup once asking if I wanted to debug the exception in vjc - I said no. It then said the build was successful (which matches VS 2005 in that the exception in the compile d ...Show All

• Visual C# with keyword

  Hello, In VB 6 this keyword means inserting an object to the context. fields and properties of the object can be accessed directly, without a variable name (like when writing code inside a class and all the properties of "this" are accessible). In VB the dot "." operator is used, in other languages like delphi - you can just write the property \ method name. Is there a "with" keyword or something similiar in c# Thanks. There is no with in C#, see this link for more details from the C# language designer http://www.gotdotnet.com/team/csharp/learn/columns/ask.aspx#with Mark. ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Error connecting to report server

  After installing TFS SP1 Beta, I had troubles getting the SharePoint and reporting services working. So I thought I would back out and start over. At this point, everything is working except for reporting. Whenever I try to navigate to http://localhost/reports/Pages/Folder.aspx , I get the following: "The underlying connection was closed: An unexpected error occurred on a send." Where do I start looking for the cause of this I've already double-checked the reporting services configuration, and everything appears to be OK. Any ideas It could be due to a bug in .NET frameworks 1.1.

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Calculating normals for large mesh with no vertex to triangle info

  I have a mesh of 100.000 triangles where I need to calculate the normals for the vertices. The datastructure, I am using, does not point from vertices to triangles, but only the other way arround. I therefore defined my vertex normals as the sum of the triangles using them, weighted by the triangles size. I simply set all vertex normals to zero and then run through my triangles (when running through them anyway for some other task) and add a triangles normal (weighted) to the vertices it uses. The I run through all vertices and normalize the normals. This is suposed to give me a valid normal for the vertices. I am not much liking waht i see though. The entire terrain is filled with little pyramids. Light ones and dark ones. When I ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Online Help Technologies in Vista

  In my reading on Microsoft Windows Vista, I have seen a number of references and discussions about the new "User Assistance" functionality. What previous online Help technologies will Microsoft Windows Vista support Specifically, in addition to the new "User Assistance" format: 1.

• Visual Studio Express Editions windows service

  Hi, Iam using C# Express Edition.I want to create a windows service ,But there is no template for windows service in express Edition.Where can i download the Windows service template. Thanks in advance. ahmedilyas is correct, Express lacks a Windows Service template and is one of those lovely little limitations they put on it. All is not lost though, because C# Express targets the exact same .NET Framework that even the highest versions of Visual Studio 2005, you can still build one... you just have to do a little more work. First things first... take a look at the ServiceBase class as any kind of Windows Service you make will need to derive from it. I’d also suggest taking a look at these two Code Project articles that walk t ...Show All
