• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. (Clip) Plane transform?

  Hi all -- I'm porting a water shader to XNA, but first I need to get my clip planes right. I noticed we still need to unproject the plane from camera space to world space, but I cannot find a method that actually allows to transform a plane! Like the MDX Plane.Transform method used to do. I tried to transform 3 world points with the inverse of my world*view*proj matrix, and create a plane including these points, but no luck. Thanks derek for the nice methods. However, I fear I must disagree with your last lines. The plane(0, 0, 1, -5) is NOT the same as the plane(0, 0, 100, -5). What we want here is the Z=5 plane, but in the second case you get a plane that is more like Z=0.05, because the Vector4 is norm ...Show All

• SQL Server Question: About RDA.SubmitSQL

  I understand RDA.SubmitSQl is for Submitting SQL statements for execution on a database in Microsoft SQL Server on a remote server. What if I sumbit a Query like this : RDA.SubmitSQL("Select Max(CustID) From CustomerTable"); So can I get this value back to my local client to use Please help me out. Thanks.

• SQL Server SQL 2005, Clustered FullText dependencies?

  After installing SQL Server 2005 on a cluster, I notice that the cluster resource "SQL Server FullText" has a dependency on disk H. Disk H was the disk I chose for Data Files during install. I would have expected the dependency would be "SQL Server" as it was in SQL 2000. Is this a bug I took a random database and added a Full Text Catalog. In the Browse section, I chose a clustered disk other than H (namely F) for the Catalog Location. So should the FullText resource now have a dependency on the F-disk as well Well, no there's not. I added Disk F to the SQL Server dependency list. Again, out of the box, the FullText resource just has a dependency on the H-drive as insta ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Context menu - GetLatest (should have Server and workspace)

  I think the context menu should have GetLatest (Workspace) and GetLatest(Server). This will make it easier for people coming from VSS to understand that get latest (Workspace) will only get files relative to their workspace and the server will be obvious that it will force download. If you are concerned people will too easily overwrite their workspace versions make it an option to whether the server menu item is displayed or not (or put lower on menu). People used to GetLatest from VSS don't expect that they need to do GetSpecific version, Latest version, Force get in order to get the latest files. Comparing to the workspace version is a very common need, so we minimize the # of clicks there. N ...Show All

• Visual Basic Passing an array from a VC++ ActiveX component to VB .NET 2005

  Please point me in the right direction if this has already been answered. I've looked all over and found things close to my problem, but nothing that adapted properly. All I want to do is pass a one-dimensional array from an ActiveX componenet written in VC++ (2003) to a program written in VB .NET 2005. It seems like I should be able to package the array as a Safearray and then as a Variant, and return that object. But I don't seem to be able to package it properly. Thanks! That is correct. I am creating the array in the C++ code and trying to use it in the VB code. I'm afraid I'll confuse you by posting my declarations, because the only method I could find that might work would be to create the ar ...Show All

• Windows Forms Custom Action dll in C#?

  Is it possible Getting entry point not found when building. No it can't. Well let's put it this way. If you use .NET Installer classes in any managed code language, Visual Studio setup projects call them by inserting a shim C++ Dll between the MSI process and the Installer class. The MSI process calls the type 1 deferred custom action in the C++ Dll, and that cranks up the CLR to call a managed installer class handler. If the original question was meant to be something like "can an MSI setup call a C# Dll like it can call a C++ Dll" I'll stick to my original answer of "no". I suspect you may have set your custom action properties so that MSI tried to call a C# assembly as if it were a C++ Dll(because you set Ins ...Show All
