Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Official List of Features and Limitations of the various Pixel Shader versions?
Does anyone know of an official list of features and limitations for the different Vertex Shader and Pixel Shader versions (1.1, 2.0, 3.0, etc) I couldn't find anything on the Microsoft or nVidia web sites or on the web. I don't even know for sure who governs these standards. I've been wanting to do instancing on the xbox. You can't do it like you can on windows because the SetFrequency method is windows only, but if I find a way before the documentation is released I'll post on this thread. ...Show All
Windows Live Developer Forums VE Map Control in Thick Mobile Client Application
Hi, I have used VE Map Control in Windows Application on desktops and they work fine. My understanding of how it works is as follows VE Map Control is web control which uses javascript to make Web Service Calls and gets the data. For it work on a Windows Application we use Web Browser Control. As we have seen the maps come up fine on Pocket IE, we are looking at the possibility of replicating this scenario on the Mobiles The possibility we are looking at is [Thick Mobile Application + Web Browser Control + VE Map Control + Internet Connection ] on a Pocket PC emulator Do we have support of > Web Browser in Windows Mobile (We think it is there) > Javascript in Pocket IE ( We thi ...Show All
Visual J# Visual J# 1.1 Redistributables XP Embedded
Is there a component for XP Embedded for Visual J# 1.1 Redist. available Hi, If you have built your assembly on 2.0 Framework then there is no way you can run it on Fx 1.1. This is true irrespective of the language you have chosen for coding, i mean a C# assembly built in 2.0, can't be run on 1.1. The reason is that 2.0 aseembly metadata has changed from 1.1. That's why even if you write a config file to redirect to 1.1 and run your asembly, you will get a BadImageFormatException. Now coming back to your problem, i am not getting following statement completely... "The customer / 3rd party application developers require the J# redistributables which in turn requires the .net 1.1 component" Does this statement m ...Show All

SharePoint Products and Technologies Workflow created in SharePoint Designer doesn't work ...
Hi, I created a custom workflow using SharePoint designer. It is okay when the system admin (the one who created the workflow in sharepoint designer) submits an InfoPath form to the library and then the workflow has been started. However, when a normal user (even with Full Control Permission) submits the InfoPath form to the library and the workflow cannot be started. Any additional security setup has to be configured when workflow is created in SharePoint Designer Thanks so much. Paul I've fixed my issue. I've added Log to action into workflow to debug and see where it fails. Basically, in sharepoint groups that I was using to send emails and assign to do's, I had option enabled "Allow members of the group see ot ...Show All

SQL Server Insert Images in SQL 2005 express DB, using C# code for asp.net 2.0 (VS 2005)
Help! I found about a dozen samples and articles in the net about inserting images in a sql database, but they were either using VB, or asp only or SQL 2000 and although I tried them all, none worked...

Visual Studio Team System Return value of Workspace.Merge()
I'm building an app using TFVC client API to do the following: 1. merge changes in a given changeset from branch-demo to branch-1.0 2. check in the pending merges in branch-1.0 here is the snippet of code: VersionSpec ver = new ChangesetVersionSpec (cs.ChangesetId); GetStatus gs = wsp.Merge(demoPath, targetPath, ver, ver, LockLevel .None, RecursionType .Full, MergeOptions .ForceMerge); Now the problem is how to find out the pending changes resulting from the Merge method call I thought it would be convenient to include a PendingChange[] as part of the returned GetStatus, no Now i guess a rather cumbersome alternative is to do something like this: String [] items = new String [cs.Cha ...Show All
Windows Forms Still think it's a bug... but came up with workaround
stupid f'in IE!!! crashed right when I tried to post this last time!!! ARRRRGGGGGG! It's a conspiracy to hide bug reports!!! ok, rant over, let's try again... ran across an odd thing, wonder if anyone knows what is going on here... I'm creating (my first) windows form and have 7 datagridview objects. 4 are housed in a panel (" AnalysisPanel "). These 4 hold detailed information, which isn't that important - so to save real estate, I set the AnalysisPanel. visible=False and inserted an arrow (picture box) that when clicked, sets AnalysisPanel. visible=True and grows the form to display the info. However, none of those 4 dgvs display Row Header Text (they display the Row Header Cells - but there is just no text ). These 4 ...Show All

Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Hyperlink and navigation
Hi, How can I create a Hyperlink in XAML that navigates the Frame back and forward I know how to do it with code behind, but I'm curious to know whether there is a clean way to specify that behavior in XAML only. Thanks, - Imad Hi Imad, if there is anyway for this to work as an XAML-only scenario, it has to go through data binding. Unfortunately, I don't think you can databind to a method (GoBack() and GoForward()) as Frame object doesn't have any property to allow you to achieve this. There is no way you can call the method in XAML either ( http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.windows.controls.frame.goback.aspx ). Therefore, it is probably easiest and cleanest to do it in code. If crea ...Show All
