• Visual C++ Nested classes and friend functions

  I was wondering if someone might be kind enough to help me with a problem I have compiling nested classes with friend functions that are members of the enclosing class. For example: If I have class A which has class B nested inside it: class A { public: class B { private: int private_member; public: friend void A::friend_function(); }; void friend_function(); }; I have tried compiling the above (with friend_function() suitably defined of course) with other compilers and it works fine. Visual C++ screams with multiple definition errors however. Different errors appear if I comment out the friend_function definition in class A. What is the protocol for implementing code of ...Show All

• SQL Server SQL 2005: Query is not using non-clustered index! Need to avoid hints!

  Greetings, I have two tables: CustomerOrder ---- ID CustomerID StatusID CustomerOrderDetail ---- ID Order_ID StockID Quantity CustomerOrderDetail table has clustered unique index for ID and non-clustered for Order_ID SQL Server 2005 is using table scan for CustomerOrderDetail table When I user the following query: select cod.* from CustomerOrder co inner join CustomerOrderDetail cod ON cod.Order_ID = co.ID where co.StatusID = 8 -- Pending Both of the tables are pretty big, detail table has more than million records, so scanning the table is a bad idea.

  Our website and sql database are hosted away from our offices and is updated via the web by customers and by us in our offices. However due to our slow internet connection we would like to bring a replication server into our office and have the two databases talk to each other when a change occurs.(Customers updating the public database and us update a local one).

• Software Development for Windows Vista Track HandleExternalEventActivity states?

  Hi I have a couple of custom activities which inherits from a class EventBase which inherits from HandleExternalEventActivity. My plan is to use SqlTrackingService to track whenever a workflow instance enters/completes such an activity. The idea is then when the host should raise an event it could query the SqlTrackingService for all instances that has entered the corresponding activity (but not completed meaning they are currently waiting for the event). And then the host would know which instances to raise the event to. My question is how such a query for instances that are qurrently inside an activity should look like In other words I would like to ask the SqlTrackingService "Give me all instances currently waiting for eve ...Show All
