• .NET Development Record Web Service communication

  Hi, I'm using a web service and I'd like for further analysis and troubleshooting to record the communication. What is the best way to sniff a .NET 2.0 web service Thanks for any advice John Hi, thanks for your valuable post. I want to retrieve the data from a server we bought. My intention is to understand what is going on between the web ui of this server and its own web service. Afterwards I would like to send commands in the same manner to this web service from my application. I'm doing this, because the documentation lacks, which Microsoft provided for this server. Would installing WSE3.0 on this Office Server and enabling the settings work out for me Thanks again John ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Need help controlling forcefeedback functions with labview

  Hello, I am working on my engineering senior design project and need to control a force feedback joystick using software called labview. It looks like the easiest way to accomplish this is through DirectX. Labview has the ability to import .dll functions as well as .net and activex functions. If someone tell me the best way for me to accomplish this or at least point me to a specific kb to read that would be great. I've found a lot of forums about the same subject but the explanations were very vague. I have Visual Studio 2005 as well the DirectX sdk installed if that helps. thanks a lot! I already found those samples in the SDK and tried playing around with them, unfortunately it was beyond my p ...Show All

• SQL Server Using SQLExpress on a network

  Hi, I have a VS2005 application that I run with a SQL server 2003 database. In order to make the application distributable, I'm trying to get it to run with SQLExpress. I've installed SQLExpress on a spare machine and changed the connection string in my application to use SQLExpress c:\databases\mydatabase.mdf (and the database is obviously in that location!). This works fine on the spare machine. However the problem is getting the application to run on another machine but using the same database. I note that SQLExpress won't let me put the database on a networked drive. On another machine I've also installed SQLExpress, I've enabled the tcpip stuff and the browser but to be honest don't really know what I'm doing! How do ...Show All

• Smart Device Development Shift F5: need to dispose of resource from VS stop. Where?

  I've overridden form's OnClosing to dispose of barcode scanner object .. and it works fine when I close my form with the X button on the device.. however if I hit shift F5 (stop button) in VS2005 the application won't close and crashes the device because I haven't disposed of the scanner object.. Anyway I've tried disposing of it in dispose and other ideas but I cannot get it to call any code to dispose of my object when I end the program through visual studio (which crashes my device and is annoying).. how can I make it run this code when I click stop or press shift + F5 in visual studio. // code to dispose of Symbol's scanner object... Where to put it so Shift f5 // and form X button calls this What happens when I sto ...Show All

• Connected Services Framework Cannot Find WES Project Template

  I installed VC# express, .NET framework SDKv2.0, WSE3.0, SQLserver, VS TFS and CSF lite3.0 according to the sandbox documentation. However, I found myself having problem creating local IIS web service project, so I downloaded and installed VS Web Developer express. Now I can created web services without any problem and these services can be easily migrated to sandbox. The next step I tried to create a CSF WES service following the eLearning example, but could not find such a menu item from either VC# or VWD. Accompanied by this problem, I am also having problem with my VS TFS. In fact my VS supports only TFS, and I cannot open any C# project/solution in VS. My menus and project templates looked a bit different from the demos in eLearning. ...Show All

• SQL Server Import data from SQL Server 2000 incredibly slow

  I have a problem with bad perfomance with my import of data from a SQL Server 2000 database. I use an OLEDB datasource in my SSIS package to connect to the sql server 2000 database. My 2005 server runs 64bits but i dont think this is an issue. With this configuration the import is VERY slow, we are talking about 40+ minutes to get 3.5 million rows with about 20 columns. When i create a test DTS package on the SQL Server 2000 server itself and run it, its blazingly fast.

• Software Development for Windows Vista Using wimgapi.dll with VB6 - WimApplyImage causes VB6 IDE to freeze?

  I'm writing some code to use the wim imaging api wimgapi.dll with VB6. The code works 100% on capture, with the callback function correctly getting progress information and updating my form with progress bar etc. This works fine when run from within the IDE or from the compiled .exe. The apply image code is a problem though - the WimApplyImage code locks up the IDE part way through. When run from the compiled exe, I get no progress messages to the callback - I do get all the process messages though, and it actually works in that it correctly applies the image, but it stops updating my form until it exits the WIMApplyImage function. Anyone have any ideas I've tried registering the callback both immediately before the WimApplyIma ...Show All
