• Visual Studio Team System How delete server item – i.e. file, from the source control using Object Model?

  Hi Can anyone help me how can I delete server item – i.e. file, from the source control using Object Model. The only option that I found is to delete mapping from the work space but not the file himself. I couldn't find any way to delete file from my WS and then to check it in. Thanks in advance, Shmulik. You'll need to use the PendDelete() method on the Workspace object, followed by CheckIn(). See http://blogs.msdn.com/buckh/archive/2006/03/15/552288.aspx for an example of pending changes (adds and edits -- pending a delete follows the same pattern). Buck ...Show All

• Visual Basic anything that resembles Gosub?

  Can you make something in a sub that works almost like the gosub command I dont want to make a new sub and call that, cause i use a datareader and different variables in the current sub ( and i also would like to use a gosub command in the printdialog sub) Can you make a sub or fuction in the sub or something Any ideas There's nothing in VB.NET that is an exact replacement for gosub.

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. "SPRITE TEXTURE MAP" I need some directions/suggestions

  Hi to everyone! and an Amazing 2007! STATUS: I'm working with an effect to damage the armors, itens and etc from my game characters I did notice that the "easy" way to do this was have 2 textures, one to the default difuse channel and another with the holes and scratches overlayed above the Difuse one with alpha channels to "damage" just some areas from the equipment model surface. Since the .X exporters collapse the material maps inside 3ds MAX, I can't use the Composite MAP, and the export to .fx function in Material Editor don't accept any map than not a simple bitmap to this, what lead me to write a HLSL shader to do the texture overlay. I already got one texture above another with different map channels. ...Show All

• Visual C# multithreading: locking a variable to return

• Visual Basic Backgroundworker Fundamentals

  Are these background workers slow or what If you give it a simple 2-3 lines of codes, it could take a long time for it to execute. No, that's not true. The background worker will execut the code but it appears to have amensia, because the error - thread cannot run multiple tasks at the same time... which means, even though it has finished running the code, it cannot automatically dispose itself and therefore is still active until some element deactivate it. Oh, I can understand on a single core CPU, it might have to "wait" until it turn is up - but come on, on a dual core... what's the wait I don't suppose if you tell ******** to give more processing power to background services would help ...Show All

• Visual Studio Tools for Office Range.InsertBreak generates exception

  Hi All, I'm inserting a break in a Word 2003 document which has some XML tags. It works fine for most of the documents but errors out for some documents where the XML tags are placed haphazardly i.e. not in an orderly manner. The exception that is generated is as follows: "this method or property is not available because the current selection is outside of a block-level element" I get a COM exception when I try range.InlineShapes.AddPicture for the same document.
