• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Performing custom blending in pixel shaders?

  Hi, I've read that in xna the fixed function pipeline has been wholly removed, with the exception of alpha blending. My question is, is there a way to do blending in the pixel shader anyway, for example: to write a full screen shader that takes what has currently been drawn and applies some effect to it (ie. makes the scene black and white, applies blur, whatever) that can't be achieved with just alpha blending Or is there some other standard way of doing this I was talking post-process yes. What I meant was how do you read the current frame buffer values you want to modify to do post-process or should I render the scene to a texture first ...Show All

• SQL Server How to Refresh a Data Source View and autogenerate/Re-Deploy the corresponding Report Model

  Hi everyone!, Our team is new to SSRS and we are trying to figure out how to refresh the data source view, autogenerate the corressponding report model and Re-Deploy the Report Model (rewrite existing Report Model) on the server on a periodoc basis or trigger the whole action whenever there is a change in the database on some specific tables. We prefer to do this action through a Agent job ( a diff approach is also welcome). Are there any stored procs out there Appreciate your time. -PN Hi, My project requirements goes the same way. I was trying to refresh the Report Model in the way mentioned by Teo. But the GetModelDefinition will fetch the report model SMDL. How to get the ...Show All

• SQL Server Scripting dependent objects

  Am I the only one to notice that SYSDEPENDS in SQL2000 is flakey in the extreme. Dependent objects created out of sequence generate omissions in the update of the sysdepends table. Come along later and create scripts to recreate the database structure via enterprise manager and the the dependent objects (udf's, views and Stored procs) and they are scripted in an order that generates errors. If you take the errors and trace the parent objects requesting the objects and create a ALTER script in Query Analyzer it fixes the SYSDEPENDS on one odject but screws other bits. I have experienced significant time input sorting out these dependencies scripting multiple databases in a multiclient enterprise development environment, where, for ...Show All

• SQL Server Backup/Restore Stored Procedure

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Compose a Transform3DGroup with another Transform3DGroup in XAML?

  I have a Transform3DGroup for one model which is composed of a rotation followed by a translation.

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Whats the deal with DirectX being owned by XNA?

  How come when I go here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/directx/ I get redirected here: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/xna/aa937781.aspx Is XNA making a move on owning DirectX It seems after reading some basic information on microsoft.com regarding recent statements about XNA and its current goals I'm led to believe that perhaps the whole of DirectX is being cut up and fed to XNA. First DirectShow goes. Now I realize even basic support I had in DirectX 9.0c is not even supported in DirectX 10. Basically I'm gonna have to port a graphics app engine from DX9 to DX10 and have to include DX10, at least some DX9 headers/libs, the seperate DirectShow files, and if I want rumble support for my Wireless XBox360 controller for Windows I ne ...Show All

• Visual Studio Adding a Domain Class Shape to another

  Hi, I was wondering if anyone could tell me the steps to add a Geometry Shape to a Compatment Shape. I'm assuming this is possible since in the Class Designer (in VS2005) they have put an embedded Enum into a class as well as nested classes. I am receiving the following error at the moment: Running transformation: A GeometryShape may not be parented on a CompartmentShape. In the ShapeMap mapping Storage to StorageShape, the parent element path leads to Table, whose mapped shape is TableShape. Thanks in advance, Allan ...Show All

• SQL Server How to create an event driven shared schedule

  We have a number of jobs that run nightly. Typically these complete long before the shared schedule runs. However, when they do not complete in time, we need to stop the shared schedule from running. How is this accomplished I have seen that it is possible to create event driven subscriptions but am not sure this accomplishes the same thing. Basically, I need to pause the shared schedule if a particular job has not completed successfully. Then, I need to run the shared schedule once the job has completed. None of the reports we are running are snapshot based. Would moving to this method resolve the issue Any help is greatly appreciated. I had the same issue. What I did was kick off the subscription SQ ...Show All

• Visual Basic WebClient

  I have recently encountered an issue using a WebClient to download results from web sites. I am using a Windows service to download search results from Yahoo and it's not getting the sponsored links. The best we can ascertain is Yahoo is expecting a newer browser version. I have tested the WebBrowser for a form, so I am wondering if there is a way to use a WebBrowser with a service I don't want to display the page. I need to download the result of the search, so it can be saved in a database. Any suggestions would be appreciated. ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Compile and Build Project from command line or programatically

  I would like to compile/build a complete project from the command line or do so programmatically. What are the command line instructions and how can I do this from another application good question, I am unsure actually. I guess if that project has a reference to the dll library then it should be good. otherwise look at the compiler options to see if there is a way of adding additional files into the compile process. I've actually never ever done this before so I don't know much in this topic :-) Best bet is to start a new topic and post in the .NET base class library: http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowForum.aspx ForumID=39&SiteID=1 ...Show All
