• Visual Studio Team System TF.EXE difference command and versionspec

  I am trying to determine the difference between my workspace and latest and am using the following command from inside the workspace folder >tf difference /version:W~T /format:unified I get the response TF10100: The option version is not supported. That does not seem right. Or am I doing something incorrect -mark I don't know of a really good answer here so let me try and break down what some options are: 1) the unusably slow diff recursive diff method (which includes all files, not just changed ones) 2) performing a: "tf get /preview /r" - this will identify those changed items. You could write a script to iterate over those and print out the diffs if you still want them. 3 ...Show All

• Windows Forms Need to abort uninstall based on user input

  Hi, I am creating an MSI using Visual Studio 2005, setup wizard. the install and uninstall are done silently. One of the uninstall custom action is to stop a service (using a VB script, i basically open up a shell and execute a net stop), the service name is given as parameter of the silent uninstall, i want to be able to abort the uninstall if the service name is invalid or null. Any suggestions Thanks Dinesh it is not just stopping the service that is the key, there will be a bunch of custom actions thereafter. so i would not want any of them to run. one way would be to check for that parameter in each action and not perform them in the case where the service name is invalid, but what i was trying to ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista DirectShow and C#

  Hello Everyone, I’m new in C# and I have several questions, and I hope you to help me to find the answers. I would like to make some simple capture of audio and video for personal purpose. As I understood, the right way to do it is using DirectShow. But there is something which confuses me.

Using DirectShow, your applications can perform high-quality video and audio playback or capture. DirectShow is available in the Windows SDK .” But later, in Windows SDK I read: “Welcome to the MicrosoftR ...Show All

• .NET Development dataadapter insert/update/command

  Lets say I have an insert command of sqldataadapter with one parameter. When I add this parameter, I map it with the column value from the table. If I then insert a new row in the table and call the update method, I guess the parameter will be substituted with the corresponding value from the table and then the insert command will be executed. What will happen if I add two or more rows to the table Will the described process repeated for all the new rows Also, which is faster a sql query wich insert ten new rows or ten sql queries which insert one row at a time Thanks Hi, For the first question the answer is YES. Each parmeter value is assigned by the dataadapter from each row. For the second questi ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Where are the Windows Forms controls equivalents?

  Hi, I was wondering if we are going to see equivalents of the Windows Forms Controls and Windows Forms capabilities in WPF. Although WPF seems impressive, it lags the Windows Forms power and its also counteractive. I posted links to a couple of books on my blog: http://blogs.msdn.com/okoboji/archive/2006/04/26/584549.aspx Karsten has an amazing set of training ideas for someone starting: http://blogs.msdn.com/karstenj/archive/2006/06/15/632639.aspx ...Show All

• SQL Server IndexCollection class.

  Hi All, From MSDN: '...The IndexCollection class represents a collection of Index objects that represent all the indexes defined on the instance of Microsoft SQL Server...' At the risk of sounding pedantic, doesn't this imply that one can obtain all indexes from a Server object As far as I'm aware an index is a table feature, and the only way to get a collection of indexes is Tables.Indexes. Any comments would be appreciated. ...because I'm writing a server monitoring application, which will report on the most highly fragmented index for each database for each monitored server. Thus whilst I won't need to build a collection of indexes, I'll certainly have to iterate thro' them all. I wasn't really ask ...Show All

• SQL Server GetAttribute Method of the Urn Class

  There is probably a simple way to find this out but I cannot find it: How would I be able to find out what the possible attributeName values are which you can retrieve by using the GetAttribute method. For example, one of them is "Name" which returns the name of the object. I need to find out the type of the object (e.g. table, view, UDF...) You can obtain the type of the object as a string using the Urn.Type property. eg. for Urn u = new Urn("Server/Database/Table"); u.Type would return you "Table". Thanks, Kuntal ...Show All
