Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Compiler support
Will the XNA framework support the standard .NET framework APIs for compiling C# code into loadable assemblies at runtime I currently use those APIs to compile game scripts on the fly at startup to enable faster prototyping, but I can imagine reasons for these APIs not to be supported on the 360. On Windows you can continue to use any .NET class libraries available in the 2.0 framework. Please be aware if you stray from any libraries that aren't on the Xbox 360, this will limit your code portability (as I'm sure you already know). On the Xbox 360 we currently don't support the C# code compiler. Your scripting scenario is a commonly requested (and super important) one and we are investigating potential sol ...Show All
Internet Explorer Development Regression: SELECT shrinks when dynamically adding OPTION or OPTGROUP (compared to IE6/Firefox)
I have identified a regression in IE7 (compared to IE6/Firefox) and include a simple test case to demonstrate it (below). Open the code below in IE7 and try clicking the various buttons. Notice how the SELECT box gets narrower and narrower until it vanishes completely! --- CODE BEGINS --- <html> <head> <script> function addOption() { var select = document.getElementById( "foo" ); var option = new Option(); option.value = "New"; option.appendChild( document.createTextNode( "New Option" )); select.appendChild( option ); select.selectedIndex = select.options.length - 1; return false; } function addOptGroup() { var select = document.getElementById( & ...Show All

What happened to this dialog box in 2005 It's not in the view menu anymore. Where is the MFC class wizard for adding member variables Thanks.

.NET Development disconnect event needed
I have a situation where a client which receives data from a server at irregular intervals. The server only sends data and cannot receive anything. The client however needs to know when the connection with the server has been lost. In .NET C# is there an event that can be trapped for this purpose. I have searched for a while now and found anything. There is no such event in C# but you can build your own like this. While reading the Nework Stream whenever you get data with length '0' it means that other party is disconnected. When you are readin data from the network, always check the returned int value of Read method or equallent in asynchronous mode. int readData = networkStream.Read(buffer, 0, ...Show All

Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Out of video memory when I have plenty (128Mb)
I've had several computers fail to create the DirectX device in full screen mode because of an "out of video memory" error. In two cases, the cards have 128Mb, and I'm sure it's not using even close to that much video memory (front buffer + 2 back buffers = 3*1440*900*4 = 14.8Mb (not even close to 128Mb). On one computer, I was able to solve the problem by lowering the DirectX quality settings from the control panel. On the other computer, that didn't solve the problem. I'm sure my program isn't requesting high quality settings (MultiSample = none, MultiSampleQuality = 0). Does anyone have any idea of why this would happen, or what I can do to fix the problem Thank you, Jeremy As you use a man ...Show All
Windows Forms GridView and always visible headers
I have a gridview that has many rows, it's a fixed size and will scroll vertically when the number of entries are too large for the area allotted to it. Is there a way to force the headers to remain at the top regardless of how far down the view you scroll The only other solution I can think of is putting my own labels in, but then I lose the sorting features . Thanks in advance. your assumptions were correct It's not happening for me. the headers go away when scrolling down. Are you using div's at all or any other html stylings ...Show All

SharePoint Products and Technologies Webpart and Session Variable
For my debugging issues, can some one please show me how to use Session variable when developing WebPart and get it result display in the WebPart. Many thanks, Han Hi, Before you can use sessions you first have to enable the session state module in the web.config file in the sharepoint site. Just uncomment the following line: <!-- <add name="Session" type="System.Web.SessionState.SessionStateModule"/> --> After that you can use the session object like you'll normally do with web applications.

SQL Server Query much slower on 2005 compared to 2000
We have a database developed using SQL Server 2000. We are in the process of testing it on SQL Server 2005. So far i've not done much testing but it has become apparant quickly that quite a lot of queries are performing much slower in SQL Server 2005. I am currently trying to figure out why a particular query is not performing well. One SQL Server 2000 it runs in around 6 seconds. On SQL Server 2005 it takes around 50 seconds. The query is this... SELECT StartBase, StartPoint, PickupPoint, PickupInstructions, SingleJourney, Destination FROM vwJobs WHERE StartDateTime BETWEEN '2006-09-01' AND '2006-09-23' vwJobs is a view in our database. The view includes many UDF's and also has a UNION which combines two seperate table structures ...Show All
