• Visual Studio Team System The application for project is not installed (project types .rptproj and .dwproj)

  It used to work, but then... Visual Studio 2005 was hummin' and I had a number of BI projects in both Report Services and Analysis Services. I wanted to add source control and decided to install the Team Suite and I did something wrong. I just don't know what it was. In the end, I deinstalled every Visual Studio 2005 (including, of course,the Team stuff)and SQL Server 2005 application, and reinstalled old faithful Visual Studio 2005, but nothing has worked. I'm missing the Business Intelligence project templates completely and I'm guessing that if I had them, I wouldn't get either of the following 2 messages when I try to open existing projects: "The project application for 'c:\...\SOS.dwproj' is not installed. Make sure the ...Show All

• Visual C++ use templated base class declared in 1 C++/CLI assembly in another C++/CLI assembly?

  Hi, In C++/CLI, is it possible to take a template base class declared and defined in one assembly and use it as a base class in another assembly If so, how IOW: assemblyA: template < typename T > public ref class Wrapper : PtrWrapper< T > { protected: Wrapper( T* pObj ) : PtrWrapper<T>( pObj ) { // do something } ~Wrapper( void ) {} }; assemblyB: public ref class Batch : public CoreAPI::Wrapper< cBatch > { }; where T is an UNmanaged type (and cBatch is also). Both assemblies are DLLs, and both are CPP/CLI, if that matters. Wrapper is being successfully used as a base for many classes in AssemblyA. I can't get this to work. If I just have a reference in B to A, ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions The name 'quit' does not exist in the current context

  I don't understand why my method does not see the quit variable.

• SQL Server Package Variables Not Available at Runtime

  Hello, I have three package variables that I need to have access to at runtime. All three variables have package scope. The first two, 'StartDate' and 'EndDate' are DateTime variables. The third is called FilePath and is a String variable. I have taken the following steps; 1. Enabled package configurations 2. Set up all three variables as Parent Package Variables, and have targeted the 'Value' property for each. 3. In the properties of the solution, I have set AllowConfigurationChanges to True. 4. After the package was built, I ran the Package Installation Wizard from the Manifest. I have done both File System and SQL Server installations. When I go to run the package, none of the three package variables are available for modifica ...Show All

• Visual Studio Super slow installation for VS2005 SP1 beta

  Well, it’s not something new, there are people at Microsoft that work hard to make our life easier, like the Microsoft Windows Vista installer for example, an entire OS in 20 min; and there are some less experienced developers (my assumption only) who are given for some reason the task of creating the VS2005 SP1 installer. Whoever wrote that thing, he, she or they, can say whatever they want, but to take 2 hours to get the SP1 beta installed is just damn stupid, here are 2 hours by a million people in the world, a total of 2 million hours lost, thanks to a group of developers at Microsoft, maybe they could have spend 100 more hours to learn math, or to profile the installer, and could have saved the world a million hours ...Show All

• Visual C# Regarding hard code in C#

  hi, I am developing a web-based application which needs lot of conditions to be checked . For Example : if x=5 ... instead of hard coding the value 5 ...is there any method so that i can access the hardcoded values globally in my entire application. In Asp we can use .ini file but .net has left .ini file . Please suggest me the right method ..to overcome this problem I'd probably add a class that contains the parameters... eg: public class BusinessParameters { public const int MyLimitation = 5; } But since you mention ini files i presume that you want to use a configuration file... So add a Settings file to your project... And add an entry for MyLimitation.. Now you can use this instead o ...Show All

• SQL Server Extremely Poor Performance - Identical DB's but very different performance

  Hello Everyone, I have a very complex performance issue with our production database. Here's the scenario. We have a production webserver server and a development web server. Both are running SQL Server 2000. I encounted various performance issues with the production server with a particular query. It would take approximately 22 seconds to return 100 rows, thats about 0.22 seconds per row. Note: I ran the query in single user mode. So I tested the query on the Development server by taking a backup (.dmp) of the database and moving it onto the dev server. I ran the same query and found that it ran in less than a second. I took a look at the query execution plan and I found that they we're the exact same in both cases. Then I too ...Show All
