• Visual C# assembly file

  Hi everyone, I have again some doubts about assemblies. Suppose that w ecreate a class and then use some classes from different packages in this class. So, when I examine the references section about my project, I see that the all packages that I use is added into it. My question is that when I execute my program in the same class(in other words , my main method is located in the class that I use), do the assembly file, which is createn at the compile time, consist of the reference section and my own class Menawhile, I know that assembly file also contain metada and manifest but I refer to the IL part. Thanks Hi, in other words, Does the assembly files consit of the main namespace which inculde the project that currently using ...Show All

• Visual C# Where do I find...

  I have been scouring the web for the better part of 2 hours now and cannot for the life of me find the answer to this question: Where do I find the System.Windows.dll I am looking for the System.Windows.Media namespce, which seems to be in that dll. I see the dll referenced in a lot of places but no explanation on where it might be located. Please help! This seems only to be available in .Net v3. It's used for Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) drawing. It looks like it spans a number of dlls. Maybe these are automatically added as references if you use WPF, but for specific features you should be able to find the dll listed in the individual class pages linked from here: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/e ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Where can I host the runtime in a SOA based environment?

  Hello everybody, I am planning to use Listen, Delay and event-based Activities in a sequential workflow like the one in the hands on labs WF HOLD01. In this case the manager can approve the report, otherwise it will be escalated if a certain time-limit is exceeded... Now my question, how and where can I host the runtime if my architecture consists of web services (or respectively wcf in aspnetcompatibility mode) and the workflows take several days So far I hosted the runtime in an Application variable and after each service request I saved the instances through the manualworkflowscheduler service in the database, but now I want to add a LISTEN Activity and inside a DELAY Activity which executes after 3 days, so I must not save th ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Still confused - installing machine wide data for read/write all users

  Okay guys, Where in the world am I suppose to put our shared machine wide database on VISTA so that all users can read/write to it It is just a simple Access 2000 file. It shouldn't be this hard to put a file on a computer so all users can write to it. Thats all we want to do. I posted this about 3 or 4 days ago in another forum and a user said that we should be putting the database in CSIDL_COMMON_APPDATA if we want to share it with all users. So I followed these instructions and implemented the SHGetFolderPath API and I utilized this location (which maps to c:\programdata on VISTA) to store our database in c:\programdata\[ourApplicationName] Even though my data is written to this location each user that accesses the file r ...Show All

• Visual Studio Breakpoints stopped working

  All of a sudden some breakpoints in my solution stopped working. The tooltip displays the following error message: "The breakpoint will not currently be hit. The source code is different from the original version." I rebuilt the solution; deleted /bin and /obj directories of the project in question; restarted Visual Studio; all to no avail. Any hints what might cause this, and how to solve it I'm using Visual Studio 2005 Professional Edition. Addendum: This seems to affect only breakpoints set on a method head. Breakpoints set on a statement inside the method still work. Here and the online help indicate a checkbox addressed: "Allow the source code to be different from the original version ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Why is best Visual Basic .NET than VB6,

  Hello. I am good programmer of .net more than 3 years ago but I never programmed in VB6. I need to make a presentation of the advatanges of .net related to vb6. If someone knows presentations or webcasts about it. It would be very helpful Tks well its newer, better, faster and has tons of problems resolved since the earlier VB6 editions. It's "now" and has alot of improvements and easier to learn as well as debugging. VB6 is also now unsupported so learning old technologies does not help in the upcoming new technologies that are coming out. .NET has been around for 5-6 years now and has taken the world by storm, alot of employment is now based on .NET developers but having knowledge of VB6 does help you tra ...Show All

• Visual C++ Exception Handling in Destructor

  Today I got a code for review. I need an advice to take a decision on a destructor function The code will looks like follows. try { if( m_pXMLAccessor ) delete m_pXMLAccessor; CoUnInitialize(); } catch(…) { // LOG ERROR } If an exception occurred inside the try block, on deleting the pointer, CoUnInitialize will not be called. As per the standard we are following, we should put the things in the try/catch block. According to Scott-Meyers (Effective C++), we should terminate the program, if an exception occurred in the destructor. But that is not possible here. So my question is, do I need to write ...Show All

• SQL Server high Availability cubes: During Cube metadata updates + ProClarity

  Hi, This is a kind of solution design issue. Scenario: We have a web page that displays information from a Oracle data warehouse. We collect the required information in the page and have used AMO to create cubes and other related objects from this information. The source for the cubes in SSAS 2005 would point to Oracle. This is modelled as a web service and used within the web page. Once the Cube gets created in SSAS, we model ProClarity graphs on them. The problem: The users can invoke the AMO web service from the web page, to add a new MeasureGroup to an existing cube. Once this is done the Cube becomes non-browsable. because we are adding a new MeasureGroup and thus modifying the cube metadata. In detail, If the new MeasureG ...Show All
