• Visual Studio Team System Ability to incorporate relational data within TFS fields?

  I would like to add role information to a customised work item. When a user is chosen from a dropdown, I would like the role dropdown to default to the chosen user's role. Currently both users and roles are defined in Global Lists, but I wondered if there was anyway that I could move to a relational model. Can this be done Can you explain more on what you mean by moving into a relational model Do you mean moving role data to a database and doing some databinding The built-in controls read only from work item tracking xml and global list. If you must read from relational db yourself, you could create custom controls with SP1, but that control would have be deployed in users' boxes. ...Show All

• Windows Forms no registry keys are created on x64

  I have a Setup Project created by using Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 Version 8.0.50727. This setup project creates several registry entries. The registry editor is used to specify which entries should be created. By setting the project's "TargetPlatform" property to x86 and executing the wizard on 32bit platforms everything works correctly. Ecch registry entry is created. The problems begin when I try to execute the wizard on x64 platforms. More details about the platform: Windows Server 2003 R2 Standard x64 Edition with SP1, Intel Xeon 3.4GHz CPU. On this x64 box, the system path environment variable begins with the 32bit related entries (e.g. C:\Windows\System32) and follows with the 64bit related ones. It seems to be ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. using XNA Framework with no shader capability display driver???

  I have Intel 82852/82855 GM/GME graphic card with no support for shaders. Is it possible to develop a 3d application with XNA Framework under this condition.When I run a tutorial project I got the message "Both a valid vertex shader and pixel shader (or valid effect) must be set on the device before draw operations may be performed." I am new to XNA concept. Before I was developing with MDX 1.1 and I can develop 3d application with out shader support. So how can do this with XNA... The content pipeline is not tied to the XNA graphics system. There's no point trying to duplicate our public interfaces: that just happens to be the way we do graphics, but if you want to do graphics some other way, you could extend ...Show All

• Visual Basic Need help with collision and...

  Need help with collision and optimizing the space of an shape when filling it with a bunch of smaller shapes. I got a shape that loos like this and I need to fill that with as many smaller rectangled shapes that I possibly can. So what I first need to do is figure out how to make it check so that the objects are not colliding with eachother or that they are outside the main shape. Then I need to figure out how to maximize the placement so I don't get a lot of blank space. So it might have to flip the rectangled shapes 90 degrees etc. So... my question is.. how do I detect the collision I guess that could be solved like people do with game collision And my second question is for the auto optimizing.. anyone got a clue where to start thinki ...Show All

  Hello again :) I'm just curious, if I have a server, using async-sockets model, and 1000 clients connected, how is it handled I mean, I'm sure there are no 1000 threads (haha) taking care of each socket instance.. So, what Are there, let's say, 100 sockets taken care of in 1 thread, or what Where can I learn about it What happens if I use Thread.Sleep() in one of the sockets' events (the rest of the sockets are affected ) Really Well, I already have a well-built server and it's code is way too long to show it in here  Was just wondering, don't really have any problem (: And it's async pattern, using 0 threads (custom ones that I made).
