• .NET Development Unhook the RowChanging and TableNewRow events from datatable

• Smart Device Development Toolbox Icon

  Hi guys, How do I provide an icon to be displayed when my custom control is added to the toolbox with CF In the full version, its easy: [ToolboxBitmap .... ] but this seems to be missing in CF. Obviously it can be done, but having trawlled through here and MSDN, I cant find anything. Thanks in advance, Millie. Add a design time data file (xmta) to your project and embed a bitmap to be used as the tooboxBitmap. Name the bitmap after your class name. In the XMTA file add aTooboxBitmap tag: Here is a short sample: < xml version = " 1.0 " encoding = " utf-16 " > < Classes xmlns = " http://schemas.microsoft.com/VisualStudio/2004 ...Show All

• Smart Device Development control.invoke

  Hi all. Can someone push or punch me in the right direction here Using the CF 2.0 I have an application that is doing an async poll of a TCP listener for data. When the data arrives, I want to update certain forms with the values. In a nutshell, The data arrives. I determine what type of data it is and where it should display. I populate properties of a class with the data. I then raise an event to signal the data is here and the properties have been populated. It is here where my problems start. Based on the the data I will determine what form I need to interact with. I need to call a sub from within that form to populate the controls on it. I was using invoke to call the sub , but the data would not display because the ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Mock CD Root

  Sorry for the poor Subject Title I'm going to try and explain this as best as I can. What I'm doing is making an autorun.inf program. Well that's easy. 6 minutes of programming and I'm done. But what I want to do is make this a little more that just an autorun program. I'm going to make it so you can add directories and files then "build" the folders. Well I know how to do this too, not a real problem. Now what I do need help on is this: autorun files are placed on root of the CD, But what my program does is gathers all the files and creates a Folder for them. The folder (project folder) is like the CD. Now let's say setup.exe is the autorun program. Well to add this as the open= the user will browse for this file. But when the f ...Show All

• SQL Server File Headers SQL Express

  I apparently have corrupted my file header on my database, and then copied it to my backup database. Is there some way 1. to have the machine recreate the file header automatically and fix it so that I can use the database or 2. a back door into the database so that I can get the text files of my database to reconstruct the database from scratch.

• .NET Development Will assembly be functional after sending it with WCF?

  My question extends from the second part of Zhisheng Huang's reply in this post: http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/showpost.aspx postid=1205641&siteid=1 I am trying to create a WCF service, that should enable the user to create his own plugins, install them on the server at runtime and make them available to the clients. So basically the server loads plugins that implements an IModule interface with Assembly.LoadFrom and creates instances with Activator.CreateInterface. These instances are then returned to clients. The modules implement 4 methods that I want to execute on the clients. But when the client tries to deserialize an actual module received, I get the following FileNotFoundException: "Could not load ...Show All

• Architecture Web farm architecture

  I want to design a web farm with three web servers. Can I use Application Center to do that If yes, is there any reference design diagram If no, any other suggestion pyeung wrote: Thank you very much for your valuable advice. I will read your suggested topic carefully before I start planning. Because it is the first time I plan server farm, I would like to use a simpler solution. I hope you don't mind I ask some more beginner questions: 1. Does MS officially announce that Application Center will be out of support in the near future I need to persuade my boss not to consider this option. Sure. As you can see from here , AppCenter is already out of mainstream support and into extended lifetime support. pyeung wrote: ...Show All

  I have a class that has a list containing another class. I need to get at the data members inside of the class inside of the class. I didn't think this would be a problem a simple foreach should take care of this right Wrong! I have the following for each foreach ( FileList F in driverEntry) { FileName = F.Name; } and I get this error foreach statement cannot operate on variables of type '_Default.DriverEntry' because '_Default.DriverEntry' does not contain a public definition for 'GetEnumerator' I have never written a GetEnumerator function before and frankly I don't know where to start.

• Windows Live Developer Forums Java Applet in Messenger Activity?

  I have tried to create a small multiuser test activity using the MSN Messenger Activity SDK. I have successfully created a local XML file for the messenger directory. I have also succeeded in inviting another user to participate in the activity and is redirected to the HTML page deployed on my local web server. So far so good! I want to implement some of the activity functionality as a Java applet but where the applet should be displayed there is only a grey area (as if the applet is not initialized properly). When I access the Java applet directly using a browser it works perfectly.

• SQL Server Log Shipping v Database Mirroring (again!)

  Hi I'm looking at replicating our primary SQL server to a secondary offsite server (linked via 100Mb so effectively LAN speed). What are people's preference when deciding on a solution On the surface mirroring looks much better but having dug a little I've found it is recommended only 10 databases are mirrored per instance. That said, I've found a post from someone who is upto 58 databases mirrored. Are there similar limitations with log shipping Does anyone have any experience of mirroring and is using it in prefence to log shipping Our current recovery strategy is the classic restore the SQL dump from tape onto a rebuilt server so either method will be a vast improvement. None of our databases are mission critical that they ...Show All

• Visual Studio Debugging a UI.

  I have a C# app/UI. I'm trying to debug the UI and I'd like to be able to watch it update as I step through the code. I used to be able to to this with previous versions of VB, but I seem to have lost that ability with the jump to C# and/or VS2005. I have a dual monitor setup and I used to put the UI on one screen and step through the code on the other and see exactly how my UI reacts as each line of code is executed. This was very helpful when designing my interface. Is this not possible with C#/VS2005 I believe the Graphics.Flush function was intended to do this but I cannot get it to flush consistently. Another method I've tried in the past is, at key points, dump the graphics object to the file system. Here's an example. ...Show All
