• Visual C# new and shiny

  Yep I'm new and shiny to C# - coming from a C and Java background. Been looking for something that lists the base class's apis (preferably HTML - kinda like java's api if at all possible) to get a general idea of what classes are available and what they can do. Have 2 books ordered but would like to get a head start if possible. I have quickly looked at the specification doc provided in the visual studio - not exactly what I am looking for (or maybe just the format of it through me off) as well as a couple quick googles (maybe I am using the wrong search phrases) and a very quick search on these forums (base class api and a few variations). Links, google search phrases, or a spoon/clue would be appreciated. ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions I'm Very New!! Help with Tutorials

  Hello, Sorry but I am new and pretty much blank to programming. (Done basic web design) I have worked along side people using VB and PHP and understand to a level what is going on, however never worked on it alone and dont know all the correct language to produce what I want. With that in mind I found VB Express through a friend and started doing the tutorials. However i tried to write my own after a basic tutorial and it wont work and I have no idea why when I am just following the rules in the Tutorial Dim aString As String = "Look at me" Dim bString As String = "you hairy beast" Dim cString As String = "" 'Displays "The test". MsgBox(cString = aString & " " & bString) But it does not display it. What am I doing wrong ...Show All

• Visual Studio Visual Studio 2005 SP1 for which edition ?

  I erroneously posted this in the .Net setup forum so I am reposting it here. There is a Visual Studio 2005 Service Pack 1 at http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx FamilyID=bb4a75ab-e2d4-4c96-b39d-37baf6b5b1dc&DisplayLang=en. The brief description says: "This download installs Service Pack 1 for MicrosoftR Visual StudioR 2005 Standard, Professional, Team Editions." but then I read:under Overview: " This download installs Service Pack 1 for MicrosoftR Visual StudioR 2005 Team Suite." This is confusing. Is this service pack only for the Team Edition or is it for the standard, professional, and team editions Gabriel Lozano-Moran wrote: It is the service pack fo ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Suitability for using WCF in commerical production applications?

  Hi, How 'ready' is the WCF for use in production applications I am designing a system which will have a SOA and we are debating on which technologies to use. It is pretty much a toss up between the WCF and .NET remoting. The only reason we are considering .NET remoting is because it's been around a long time and has proved itself in commerical use; we wuold personally love to jump right into using all the nice features of the WCF though. I love using new technologies but I also want to be sure I don't blindly jump into this without doing the research first. Is anyone using the WCF in a commerical production setting I have done some googling and found a few articles of people using it in production, but I'd like to hear some more opin ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Audio Volume

  Hi, I have another question. Is it possible to display audio input and/or out put levels as seperate channels (Left and Right) I have two of the the VU audiometer ( http://www.codeproject.com/useritems/KEMA_Code.asp ) on my form. one named 'Left' and the other 'Right'. Any help would be great. Of course it is possible , in stereo sound there is two channels. But the question is, how. From where is your audio stream coming from, sound card line/mic input, a sound file If the component you are using to playback the sound, doesen't have any methods to get the amplitude of the current sample, you must get it from the sound data itself. To get the amplitude of the certain sample, you must know the format of the sound. Here' ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Generic WCF Service Invoker

  Could you please advice if there is any Generic WCF Service Invoker A component that I can use to invoke a WCF service by simply providing Service URL, OperationName, and ParametersCollection. BUT I still want to be able to control and custimize the binding/invocation. My scenario is that I have a bunch of functionally equivalent services that I want to dynamically bind to, at design time I know the service interface but I only know the concerete binding/service provider to use at runtime. Also some service providers sometimes do not comply 100% with the agreed-upon interface so I need to do some in-out transformations before invoking and after receiving the response. Is there any exisiting samples that can guide me on how to do the above ...Show All
