• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Forcing Update of UI before my function exits

  I know this question has been asked before, but none of the answers given work for me. I have a function that performs a long operation. Before that function does all its work, I want to set a Status message in my Status bar. The problem is that UI updates don't seem to occur until the function has exited, by which time the Status Message is no longer relevant. What can I do to force the UI to update I've tried calling UpdateLayout(). I've tried calling InvalidateRender(); I've tried setting the Status Bar properties within a delegate passed to Dispatcher.Invoke with DispatcherPriority.Render. None of these work. I have, elsewhere in my App succesfully used Background worker to perform longer running operations asynchronusly. I ju ...Show All

• Visual Basic how to compile a .dll into my .exe file?

  My code calls functions provided in an io.dll file. The problem is when I pass my exe file to others, I need to send this io.dll to them and ask them to put that in the same directory of .exe file. Is there any way I can compile this .dll file into my code so that only one file is necessary to pass around Thanks. What you're trying to accomplish is not an easy feat. If you got it to work (below) it would be largely considered hackish. Is there any reason why you can't ship the DLL as well As DMan has pointed out you could compile this assembly as an embedded resource. However on startup you would have to read the assembly out and write it to disk next to you EXE before you accessed any types ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System TFS MSSCCI asking for login info when using 3rd party IDE

  My problem is as follows: I am using a 3rd party IDE. Eadh time it connects to the server (e.g., to open files from source control, refresh SCC status, etc.), I get prompted by TFS to provide Team Foundation Login Information to communicate to the server over HTTP or HTTPS. I have read the thread https://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx PostID=1086788&SiteID=1 , however it only applies to VS 2K3 (the IDE I am using does not have the Login ID option). My question is: I am trying to connect to the server using the credentials of the logged in user. Is it possible to set the TFS client to always forward the credentials of the logged in user (user name/win pass) to the server instead of prompting me every time If not, are ...Show All

• Smart Device Development standalone ARM Device Emulator

  hi everybody, i want to use the standalone device emulator to demonstrate my application on a computer that does not have Visual Studio 2005 installed. Witch files do I need to copy from my devellopement computer, to be sure that everything will work thanks Julien You will need to have all device emulator binaries installed in Microsoft Device Emulator\1.0 directory copied to your demo pc and registered appropriately. Also you will need to have the OS images on which your demo is going to work. Please note visual studio boots from saved-state instead of cold booting, so is very fast. Also you will need a mechanism to move your application to Device Emulator memory. There are three ways for ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Web Browser Progress Bar

  Ok, so recently I downloaded the Visual C# 2005 Express edition (wow...why doesnt everyone have it ) :) and I started creating a simple web browser. One thing that I still have not got to work yet is the progress bar. Here is the function I have: private void webBrowser1_ProgressChanged( object sender, WebBrowserProgressChangedEventArgs e) { //ProgressBar toolStripProgressBar1.Value = ( int )((( double )e.CurrentProgress / e.MaximumProgress) * 100); } This Code works to some extent, i guess, because after the page is fully loaded, it fulls of green, but i do not see any inbetween stages. If anybody has any insightful information on this topic, it would be greatly appreciated!! :) Thanks, paoloTheCool ...Show All
