• Internet Explorer Development IE Interop

  Hi, I've been trying to write a Custom Download Manager for IE using C#. I've found some information here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp url=/workshop/browser/ext/overview/downloadmgr.asp , but I can't figure out what CLSID I should refer to my managed library as, or if I need to register it or something. I don't have any experience in working with COM, so using a hybrid solution could be difficult for me. All suggestions are welcome. Reuben. Thanks for replying. I implemented it like this:  using System; using System.Collections.Generic; using System.Text; using System.Runtime.InteropServices; using System.Runtime.InteropServices.ComTypes; namespace IE_Interop ...Show All

• Visual Basic Getting Started

  Hello, Any referrals to good sources of in-depth tutorials on the web for Visual Basic Studio 2005 would be highly appreciated. Anyone have a book they prefer Not a reference manual but a teaching oriented type of book. I'd like most to learn graphics, presentations, and game programming in this language. Then, see what happens, maybe move up to java or C++. Although I've some familiarity with the old commodore/apple iie basic, this is a whole new ball game and I'm new to it. Trying to learn DarkBASIC PROFESSIONAL at the same time. Any comments Tips Suggestions Many Thanks, H.D.R.

• Visual Studio Express Editions procedure return

  am i right in saying that when you call a sub it will execute the instruction then go back to the point form where it was called. Yes, You can verify this by creating a simple example, putting a breakpoint before the call and then debugging the application. When you hit the breakpoint - step though the code one line at a time to watch program execution. Normally Pressing F11 will step through one line at a time. ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Spectrum Analyzer for Real time Audio. - Solution

  I have a directX application which reads real time audio from a sound card (mic) and calculates FFT for it. Frequency of sound per .5 second. I need to create a spectrum Analyzer kind of component. Any way I could do this using DirectX (Direct 3D maybe). I am not looking for 3rd party component. --Yatharth There's surprisingly little work done on high-level sound APIs in MDX. You can have a look at one of these .NET DirectShow wrappers: http://directshownet.sourceforge.net/ http://www.kohsuke.org/dotnet/directshowTypelib/ http://www.codeproject.com/cs/media/directshownet.asp And a commercial 3rd party component (100$ shareware license), which probably does what you need in a simple fashion: BASS from un4seen.com. ...Show All

• Visual C++ I'm unable to add windows message events or new functions/variables with the IDE using the wizard... WHY?

  My project, which has moved forward through the VS IDE's from version 5 now has a problem using the wizards to add new functions variables, or windows events. I "converted" the source files when I first opened the project in version 8 from version 7 and can successfully manually add the functions, message handlers and class members but it would be nice if the IDE worked the way it does with older versions, and with newer projects. Is there some file I need to remove, or is there a setting that needs to be changed (similiar to deleting the old clw file to reset the class wizard). Thanks Chris chris, Are your files checked-in to a source management system such as microsoft sourcesafe c ...Show All

  I have a VS2005 Prof project I built for Office 2007 using VSTO2005SE that modifies the ribbon yet I cannot get the callback from a button to call the sub I have created for it. I suspect That I installed something wrong. I discovered a web site with pretty clear instructions (for this mere mortal) http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms406046.aspx . I descided to start over with a new project - paying careful attention to instructions provided. Now things are more strange I cannot find Microsoft.office.interop.word in "add references" anywhere. At least not by that name. My previously mentioned project shows the dll in reference but I have no idea how I got it there. I could use some help on how to make this available. ...Show All
