• Audio and Video Development Applicative mode (Styling)

  Hello Everybody!!!! What I get from Spec is that the Applicative mode for styling uses an Xpath Expression to select the nodes. At each tick the style is re-initialised for the node and DOM tree can change.Thus, evaluated node set can change dynamically, thus a node may/maynot have applicative mode applied to it depending on the Xpath Evaluation. Is this understanding correct. 2) The Applicative mode is over-ridden by referential and inline style. What is the usage scenario for this mode Thanx in advance. Thanks for the answer. Another question : a) ( ~~Just to be sure~~ )Referential style applies to Loaded DOM BTW, the applicative mode is applied for 1 tick only i.e. it is similar to <set select="xpath" dur="1frame"> ...Show All

• Visual Studio Export Class Diagrams during build

  Is there a way to export class diagrams as part of the build process I don't see a way to generate the class diagrams without using the UI. Thanks. John, I can also see some benefits in this, especially if it was available to all DSLs, not just the class designer. Regards, William Bartholomew ...Show All

The username of who was carring out the action that caused the problem. i have found no overload of the Evenlog.Writeevent method that will alllow me to set the username so i assumed it would take the details of the logged in domain user. code i'm using EventLog mEventLog = New eventLog(); mEventLog.Log = "Application"; mEventLog .Sources = "MYApp"; mEventLog .WriteEntry("MessageText",eventLogEntryType.Error,0); Its write all the infomration correctly but the UserName is set to n/a instead of the na ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Compiling web sites with Team Build

  I am trying to automate the build process. I have 5 web sites and I want to be able to run the team build and then be able to run the aspnet_compiler to publish them to a new server. How do I use the team build to produce all the associated dlls with that website like it is done by right clicking on the web site and clicking 'Build Web Site' Assuming ASP.NET 2.0 Web sites, try changing your platform from "Any CPU" to "Mixed Platforms". This will usually take care of it for you. In terms of deploying, there are various approaches. Most people use copy or EXEC with Xcopy in the build.

• Visual C++ More _Interlocked intrinsics?

  Are there any plans to support more _Interlocked intrinsics in the next VC++ You took away inline asm in the x64 compiler so it's frustrating not having immediate access to stuff like "lock add/sub" or "lock cmpxchg16b". I think it would be very cool if the compiler supported custom user-writable intrinsics, but getting at least cmpxchg16b would be a great. Brian Kramer wrote: Does the x64 compiler support the __emit intrinsic (I don't have that compiler installed). If so you should be able to create your own intrinsic that wraps __emit. They removed all ability to emit your own instructions for x64. Instead you have to deal with intrinsics like _InterlockedIncrement() which for some ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Content Pipeline Assembies

  So I created a separate project to hold my custom importers, and added that to my game project's list of "XNA Framework Content Pipeline Assembies" (Project Properties > Content Pipeline). Here's my problem: the 'Configuration' and 'Platform' drop downs are greyed out (disabled) so I can only add one reference to the project and have to choose to add either the Release version or the Debug version. I've got the importer library setup as a dependency of the game project, so if I make a change to my importers, it automatically recompiles them first, then compiles the game (repacking the content with the new assembly). The problem though is if I add the Release assembly to my game project, but have the solution set to Debug, i ...Show All

• Windows Live Developer Forums Problem Photo Upload Dialog: "THis folder has a new image format. The COnverter is downloading."

  Does anyone have any insight as to what is causing the photo uploader not to recognize any photos in the My Pictures folder It shows "No photos in this folder" (when there are) and when you change to another folder containing photos it gives a dialog box " There are images with a new format in this folder. The converter is downloading". Well, there are the typical jpg photos in the folder, and when the dialog box goes away by itself, it still shows "no photos in folder". I've tried the whole reinstallation procedures, clearing cache, removing objects, etc. Every reinstall has the same problem. Any insights please -David It is unbelievable that this sort of error appe ...Show All

• SQL Server XML Data Manipulation

  HI, Since i started working on SQL 2005 Server i'am curious to know more about the usage of xml datatype. my idea is to create an xml column in a table and store the primary key value as the ID of XML tag, so that we can make the HDR DTL table in one single table, but i'am not sure this will work out or this is right way to approach XML in SQL2005 . Any links or methods showing the syntax for XML data manipulation will be great in this context. Mat Whilst that makes saving the data very simple for the application. It means all your data is stuck in side xml fragments in your table. if you want to start querying the data by fields within the XML you need to store materialise those out of the xml column. Additionally if you h ...Show All

• Visual C# C# -> Excel formatting problem

  Hi, I have a C# app that exports data to an Excel Template. It woks fine, however I am trying to set the Excel.Range.WrapText property on one cell, and am running into an odd issue. My code is this... oRange = oSheet.get_Range("B" + (nCurrentRowPosition - 1), Missing.Value); oRange.WrapText = true; oRange.set_Value(Excel.XlRangeValueDataType.xlRangeValueDefault, oThisCurrentAssignment.Fixture.Description); Where Fixture.Description is a class property of type (string). The wrap doesn't apply. However, if I were to change the code to this.... oRange = oSheet.get_Range("B" + (nCurrentRowPosition - 1), Missing.Value); oRange.WrapText = true; oRange.set_Value(Excel.XlRangeValueDataType.xlRangeValueDefault, "dfh dfh dfudf dufdnas f ...Show All
