• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) SOAP intermediaries and message security

  Hello. I’m developing a SOAP intermediary service for a scenario where message security (using the WSHttpBinding) is used. I’ve used the following technique: 1) The SOAP intermediary service (SIS) contract has only one operation, with a Message parameter and returns a Message. The current implementation simply forwards the message and the reply without any modifications. 2) The SIS uses the WSHttpBinding WITHOUT security and has a service behavior with ValidateMustUnderstand set to false. This way, all the security related headers are ignored by the SIS. The SIS also communicates with the ultimate receiver using the WSHttpBinding WITHOUT security. 3) The SIS endpoint dispatcher uses a MatchAllMessageFilte ...Show All

• Audio and Video Development Is there a way to do a frame grab of a movie and store it as a jpg or png in the persistent storage ?

  Hi All, I was wondering if there is a way to do a frame grab of a particular scene while watching the movie and store that frame as a png or jpg in the persistent storage of the player Let's say I define a function for key "A" on the remote which does this when pressed. Any pointers would be appreciated. Thanks In the example given, it is only saving to filecache (ie, memory). For a permanent copy, you would need to copy it from file:///filecache/whatever.cvi to file:///required/{your-guid}/whatever.cvi , then it would appear on C:\HDDVD\HD_DVD\{your-guid}\ ...Show All

  I have started a Quadtree project. It can be downloaded at http://www.codeplex.com/quadtreeload I would be interested in comments on the direction I am taking on the Quadtree DrawableGameComponent. I have included a test program called JoshGameXNA. But, open the QuadtreeComponentLib solution and just set JoshGameXNA project as the startup project. Excuse my C#, but I'm new to it. Any construction comments are welcome. It's seems you may have to click on "more releases" to get to the "Special Build 0.1.1" project. Not sure why..... My daughter said I should mention what a quadtree is for. A quadtree is a fast way of determining visibility of, say, a terrain or landscape (other uses as well). This quadtree project ...Show All

• Gadgets File Association

  What programme does the .gadget extension need to be associated with to get it to add to the Windows Sidebar I've managed to accidently associate .gadget with WinRar by doing an open with to work out why one of mine wasn't installing correctly, and now can't find how to reset it. Associating it with sidebar.exe doesn't work, and Windows' automated jobbie doesn't know what a .gadget is. Windows Sidebar: %ProgramFiles%\Windows Sidebar\sidebar.exe Ironically, if you look it up on the web it reports " Windows does not recognize this file type." ...Show All

• Visual C++ unexpected arithmetic results, can someone explain please?

  I'd appreciate someone helping me out on this simple question. 5 / 9 * (c-32); results in 0 (c-32) * 5 / 9 ; results in the expected answer Is this the expected behavior in C++ If so, would you point me to the explanation I'm currently working through Robert LaFore's C++ book and haven't run across an answer for it there. I'm using Visual Studio 2005 Pro V. 8.0.50727.42 and .NET V. 2.0.50727 Jeffrey Everett Thank you everyone for the answers. Once I changed the expression to 5.0/9.0*(F-32.0) it worked. I also changed variable from float to double becuase the compiler complained when I added the decimal point. I sure need to study this a bunch more. Thanks again ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions compiler cannot find windows.h

  I tried to compile an existing program (which I want to modify). The program is written in C++. So I downloaded Microsoft's Visual C++ Express edition and I tried to compile the program. It failed to compile, and the error I got was that "windows.h" could not be found. I did a search in my computer for windows.h, and it was in the Microsoft Platform SDK\include directory and I looked at my compiler 'directories' menu option and saw that I had added that directory. Furthermore I had modified various files that the compiler uses as specified in msdn instructions. But still the compiler cannot find Windows.h.
