• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Game Components Demo

  I've posted a video of my Game Components demo I did at Gamefest. http://blogs.msdn.com/xna/archive/2006/08/31/734204.aspx One thing though - have you guys given any thought to a licencing model for the (more complex) components For instance, GarageGames allow 3rd party developers a way of selling add-ons. Seems to me that there are likely to be a few experienced games developers knocking around these forums, who could produce some excellent components if they could keep the source to themselves, and sell them on (paid per developer seat, or just when deployed as a sold game). After all, this is exactly what has driven the professional component market on the desktop. Andy. ...Show All

• Visual Basic Combobox problem

  Hi, I have a combobox which displays a list of surnames (from a dataset). A number of other controls then display the other fields of data for the selected surname - no problems. I can navigate around quite hapily and all fields display correctly. By trying to break the application to ensure it's bombproof, I have found a problem that I can't seem to get around. If I delete the selected text in the combobox then type a part of a valid surname (e.g. "S" for Simpson, then hit the down arrow, a new surname is selected from the dropdown list. If I then hit the arrow again, the list disappears and the selected name is displayed in the upper section of the box, but the other controls on the screen are not updated. I ther ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Join function with array of Objects

  Help lists the declaration of the Join Function as Function Join( ByVal SourceArray () As { Object | String }, Optional ByVal Delimiter As String = " " ) As String It does not describe what happens if SourceArray is an array of objects rather than strings, but I assumed that it would use ToString to convert each Object to a String and then join them using Delimiter. However when I try to use Join to convert an array of IpAddress Objects to a string like this: Dim dnsAddresses() as IpAddress dnsAddresses = Dns.GetHostEntry("AComputerName").AddressList Dim Adrs As String = Join(dnsAddresses, ", ") the Join function gets an "Argument 'SourceArray' cannot be converted to type 'String'& ...Show All

• SQL Server Experts Pleeease advice Run WWW service in IIS 5.0 isolation mode on wk3 server

  On windows 2003 server i am having a problem, when i call reports 2005 from vs 2003(asp 1.1) it presents an error saying IIS cannot run two different version under one process. (because of 1.1 and 2.0 version conflict) only happens on windows 2003 server. now would like to change the iis to allow www to run on iis 5.0 isolation mode that way it uses aspnet_wp.exe process. which will allow multiple versions under one process mode. But has any one tried this or not , i tried internally on our windows 2003 server which is in our network and it works fine. Please share your thoughts, since i would like to take the same approach with our hosting server which is on intenet. Thank you all for sharing your opinions. ...Show All

• Windows Forms Set amount of data in datagrid

  I am returning alot of rows in my datagrid like 500 rows or maybe more i wanted to know if some could help me out with showing me how can i just show the first 50 rows then the next 50 and so on by clicking a next button.....should i use the concurrencymanager in some way.....any links or help would be great!! thank you most likely you would need some paging system implemented. I guess you could select the first x rows: DataRow[] theDataRowsSelected = theDataSet.Tables[0].Rows[ x ]; this.theDataGridView.DataSource = theDataRowsSelected; of course, keep a count of the number of rows the user specifies to select, so you can then easily make sure that the next time you get the number of rows, that it does not exceed m ...Show All
