• .NET Development Static methods behind the scene

  How static methods work inside CLR Is it similar to the old C++ architecture with a single copy of the method for all instances How member functions work/represented inside CLR Yes, static methods belongs to type, not to instance. And they are located in another then instance methods, let's say, "table" inside the CLR. For each class there is a "Type-object" inside the CLR. This object contains all the information about the type and all the static methods are located in it. For each instance CLR creates an "instance-object" which contains instance related data (properties, methods) and the reference to the "Type-object". You can read Jeffrey Richter's book ...Show All

• SQL Server Alerts and Jobs for transaction log processing

  Scenario: I have an alert defined which monitors the transaction log. It should start a job which should backup the transaction log once the log is 75 percent full. So far so good. The challenge is to give the database name to the command for backing up (in our case it is a external tool) the appropriate transaction log I know, that you can use tokens (A-DBN) to do this. I know, that there is a bug in this area, so tokens are not set correctly in SP1 Question: Is there any trick/alternative to create a workaround Regards Norbert ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista The 64-bit Intel version of App Verifier 3.3 fails to install on our 64-bit Intel machine

  The 64-bit Intel version of App Verifier 3.3 fails to install on our 64-bit Intel machine. When we use the AMD version of the installer, it does not generate logs when we run our MSI installer package. The installed application runs correctly in Test Case 4 on the 64-bit machine. Hello When you use Application Verifier, the version that you use depends on the bit verion of the application that you are testing. For a 32-bit application being tested on Windows 64-bit, you would still need to use the 32-bit Application Verifier. The ia64 version of Application verifier is only for Itanium systems. For 64-bit applications on and Intel EMT64 system, use the AMD64 version of Application verifier. Thank You Thomas ...Show All

• Visual C# Which software for my application?

  I want to learn how to develop Infrared (IR **radio transmission) products for racing, such as is found on items such as oval track, non-contact timing systems. What would be the best software for me to learn for these applications TIA I used VB6 to develop communication with hardware RF radios through a serial port. The VB.NET and C# both support serial ports (with the SerialPort control in the toolbox) to access hardware. If you connect your app to the hardware this way, it could send any messages you want. You could also use .NET compact framework to deploy it on a smartphone, instead of a notebook or desktop pc. Don't know if this is your goal, but I hope it helps... ...Show All

• SQL Server Permanent URL to SQL Native Client (sqlncli.msi)

  I'm working on a setup that can download and install the SQL Native Client (if needed). I'm trying to figure out what the semi-permanent URLs are for sqlncli.msi, sqlncli_x64.msi and sqlncli_ia64.msi. If I navigate to the download page for these kits, the URLs don't look like they are permanent, they contain a GUID and seem to point directly to a download server. I was expecting to find something like: http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/ LinkId=37280 Which is the link to SQL Server Express setup kit. Can anyone tell me what the LinkId is for the SQL Native Client kits Thanks, John Vottero ...Show All

• Smart Device Development Unable to create cab files in visual studio 2005

  Hie, i think i am facing the same problem, so i just reply here instead of starting a new thread. if this isn't the same problem, i will create a new thread later. i followed the how to article on using smart device cab project to create the cab files. i successfully created the cab file and when i copy it to the device via activesync, it install successfully. but when i package it into a installer and use ce application manager to install, it say this is an invalid setup file. so i open the cab file and compare it with the sql ce cab file. and guess what, it is different. In the cab file that i create, it doesn't have a *.999 file, but all the other cab files like sql ce, sql ce client, and compact framework have. so, what am i d ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Web Farm or Server Farm when installing SharePoint?

  In the TFS setup guide, I’m seeing conflicting instructions. In one place (for when installing SharePoint), it says to select the Web Farm option. In another place, it says to install the Server Farm option. Anybody know what's going on here and which I should select Thanks, Ron When setting up the Sharepoint during install you want to select the Server Farm option. I have not seen anything else that states differantly, but then again i just use the single-Server install checklist. having done this quite a few times, I just know that is the correct option and I tend not to dive too deep into the docs.
