• .NET Development Comvisible object, config files, and classic ASP

  We are developing a comvisible object that will be called from an asp page. This object in turn will load other .net assemblies, E.G. Entlib, other in house items, WSE3.0 imp, etc… Most if not all of the assemblies require settings in a configuration file. The issue is I am unsure of how to get my comvisible assembly and the others that it loads to read a config file. 1) Where does the configuration need to be placed 2) Does it need to be named web.config or assembly.dll.config 3) Curiosity question here a. Can it be placed in such a place that each site/vdir calling the com object can have a different configuration file Thanks Wayne Yes, but this ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) how to set maxReceivedMessageSize for a vb6 client app that use a WCF service ...

  Hi I have a VB6 client app that calls in to WCF service hosted using netTcpBinding. The calls seems to work fine for other functions that returns small amount of data. But i have a function that returns a string (xml serialized dataset) and it exceeds the maxReceivedMessageSize(65536) and i get "RunTime error -2146233087 (80131501) - The maximum message size quota for incoming messages (65536) has been exceeded. To increase the quota, use the MaxReceivedMessageSize property on the appropriate binding element.". My vb client app is named vb6client.exe. So i added vb6clientapp.exe.config and added maxReceivedMessageSize="6553600" in the netTcpBinding section. But i still get this error. If i do the same on a WCF client ...Show All

• Visual Studio Localization

  What are the guidelines for localizing of the domain model I have noticed the Localize property on Classes and Values Properties, but I haven't figured out how it works Thanks! Mike In the June CTP (and thereafter) there are various 'resources' you can provide for elements of your DSL definition, such as descriptions and display names on domain classes, domain properties, domain roles. These get generated into a .resx file, and are then used in various parts of the UI in the generated designer. You can localize your designer by defining satellite DLL's overriding these resources for different locales. In our V1 release (due end of August / beginning of September), the completed Dsl Designer m ...Show All

• Visual Basic send to a printer in VB.net

  Isn’t there a way to send an MS Word doc to a printer in VB.net We generate dozens of Word docs for our clients daily, and would like to create a simple app that will list the files in a selected folder and allow them to highlight as few or as many as they want and send them to their default printer. I can’t seem to put my finger on any information describing a similar task in VB.net. Thanks, Michael Nicholas The solution to yoru prob is, not to create a new Process everytime for each item in yoru listbox. Use the same process, just fire the rest of the events one by one. Hint: write that Dim proc as New Process outside the loop, should help .... ...Show All

• SQL Server How to send a report on data change?

• Visual C# Intellisense breaks on Indexer of C5 generic collection library

  Hello, I noticed a problem when trying to use indexers of the great C5 Collection Library ( http://www.itu.dk/research/c5/ ) . The library makes much better use of Interfaces than the collection classes in System.Collections.Generic and work fine most of the time, except when one tries to access members of the type stored in the collection class via the Indexer. So, to illustrate, when I have myArrayList defined as C5.ArrayList<string>, type myArrayList.First and then type the dot I get the list of available members of the string class shown by Intellisense. Just as it should be. However, when I do the same with myArrayList[0] and then type the dot, nothing happens. This is quite annoying. It appears to me that the problem might be ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Making XNA sing in 2D

  I'm new to managed code as far as using it for anything but tools and other applications where speed doesn't matter. I'm playing with XNA and looking to have some fun in 2D. I know this is the beta and all but the performance of using spriteBatch to draw sprites is really lacking. 5000 unlit, perfectly opaque square sprites using the same texture shouldn't run at 5 fps. 1000 sprites runs at just under 30fps, that's without any other game logic going on. Woof. I am looking to squeeze performance out of 2d mode, however I'm thinking that perhaps the best thing to do is just render in 3d mode and use large triangle lists to draw my sprites. Would that be the best course of action, or are there yet lots of tricks to rendering in ...Show All
