• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Using X509 Certificate in WCF

  Hi, I have created a Windows Service in Visualstudio 2005 and created a service host in the OnStart() method to run the service host created when the windows service is run. To run I created a setup project and configure it to install my service on the local machine but when I am running the service an error is generated and is written in the event viewer as : Cannot find the X.509 certificate using the following search criteria: StoreName 'TrustedPublisher', StoreLocation 'LocalMachine', FindType 'FindBySubjectName', FindValue 'ADIANCE08\Administrator'.

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Audio hoax

  I was just wondering whether the XNA framework somewhat more than using its internal icky audio engine based on prefabbed XACT packages, like writing PCM data directly to a buffer I'm not very far into game programming as of yet, but to me the use of XACT seems like a superfluous step in the work flow of a creating a game, or just an additional level to a game. Correct if I'm wrong, I've just read the documentation. First of all, wave banks, cues etc. can only be created within the XACT authoring tool, hence no possibility for integration other than using what's created in the tool. Second, apparently no reflection or discovery can be made on XACT packages in your client code to discover cues. Scenario: A level editor in which you ...Show All

• Visual FoxPro impersonateloggedonuser and Getfil()

  Iam running VFP 9 with SP1 under windows 2k. In order to protect my database/table files on a network I have created a single user who has access to the folder where the files are contained. This is the only user with access to the folder. When an individual on the network runs the application the application logs on as that user and has access to the database files...the code goes like this.... #define LOGON32_PROVIDER_DEFAULT 0 #define LOGON32_PROVIDER_WINNT50 3 #define LOGON32_PROVIDER_WINNT40 2 #define LOGON32_PROVIDER_WINNT35 1 #define LOGON32_LOGON_INTERACTIVE 2 #define LOGON32_LOGON_NETWORK 3 #define LOGON32_LOGON_BATCH 4 #define LOGON32_LOGON_SERVICE 5 #define LOGON32_LOGON_UNLOCK 7 DECLARE ...Show All

• SQL Server Starting Full-text search on SQL Server 2005 Express Advanced Edition

  I have upgraded a SBS 2003 MSDE database (instance MSSQL$SHAREPOINT) to SQL Server 2005 Express Advanced Edition. This worked without a problem even when I enabled all the options for the upgrade including Full-text search. I now want to have Full-text search on this instance of SQL 2005 with database name of STS_EVEREST_1. I first tried to use the T-SQL command of "CREATE FULLTEXT CATALOG BBVisionCatalog AS DEFAULT;" I now know that the original database was created under SQL 2000 and therefore I needed to use SQL 2000 commands. So I used the following script: USE STS_EVEREST_1 EXEC sp_fulltext_database 'enable' EXEC sp_fulltext_catalog 'BBVisionCatalog', 'create'; It produced the following ERROR messages: (1 row( ...Show All

• .NET Development Live status of webservice

  Hi All I have a webservice that uploads a file. Actually it uploads a FileStream and does its thing. It works great. However, I was wondering, sometimes, when I upload a large file, it takes time. Is there anyway to check the status of an upload and maybe even put it in to a progress bar for the user to see so he/she knows it's not just going on forever Thanks in advance Mike hi, I have written the program to upload large files same as you doing. My method is split file to upload in 5 threads. if you don't want to use thread, you could simply use BackgroundWorker component in visual studio 2005 to implement a progress. sample is offered for how to use BackgroundWorker in MSDN. ...Show All

• Visual C++ Very simple member variable question

  Hello all, I'm using VC++ 2005. I've got an MFC dialog app to which I've added a ComboBox control. I right-click the control and select "Add variable...". In "Category" I select "Value" and in "Variable name" I give the variable name "m_intComboBoxVal". I hit "Finish". But when I try to look for the declaration in the source files for the dialog, I don't see it anywhere. It is listed in Class View when I select my dialog class...when I right click the member variable and select "find all references" it finds one reference in the dialog header file but on an empty line. Where does the wizard insert the declaration for my variable &n ...Show All

• Visual C++ Memory leak

  I have a method that continuously reads 1MB of data from a hardware in a short period of time. I used a memoryStream data structure for this. In every call of this method, a memoryStream is created and used to read the data, and then it is closed and goes out of scope. These are my assumptions in this implementation: - The garbage collector will free the memory used for the memoryStream when its instance goes out of scope - The allocation for the memoryStream is done from the Large Heap objects, because of their 1MB size Therefore, I expected to see an increase in the memory for a short time until a gc collection of the 2nd generation occurs finally and the memory decreases. However, the result is different: ...Show All
