• SQL Server SSIS package & variables

  I have a SSIS package that was migrated from DTS 2000. It had a variable that I passed to the DTS package when executing. Now when I try executing the SSIS package with the variable, I get the following error: The package path referenced an object that cannot be found: "\package.variables[user::SnapShotDate].value". This occurs when an attempt is made to resolve a package path to an object that cannot be found. From everything that I can find, I am passing the variable correctly. If I look at the package within BIDS, my variable is listed under the variable window & it is scoped for the package. Any ideas on what I might be missing here This is my first SSIS package that contains a variable. Let me know if you need mor ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Should I use Object Oriented programming for games?

  I am really confused whether or not to use object oriented programming for game development. I know that using classes correctly will help keep my code organized but I am confused about the performance. I have searched the web and I haven't got the exact answer.. not even close. Some people say, object construction and destruction (among others) is a performance degrader in OO programming (especially when it is repeated many times per frame). OO proponents say that it is not, if OO is used in the 'right way'. The problem is, I am not sure I know much about that 'Right Way'. So, can you please help me figure out what's best for my game Should I use classes or not Thanks! Job classes are good because they - help abstr ...Show All

• Windows Live Developer Forums Custom Tiles --- ESRI - ARCIMS - Shape files - MrSID

  We are Google Maps converts and I have spent some time reading up on adding custom tiles to VE but since this is so new, there is not much yet on importing Shapefiles. I have read and test the MapCruncher and although very nice, it does not support SHP (Shape files) and in ArcGIS you can't export a shapefile to a supported type. I need to be able to add a tile of poly lines (Bike trails) vectors and eventually MrSID Aerial Photpgraphy we have (becuse we have much much better resolution than MS) I can not see a way to serving up shapefiles or MrSID DOQQ files. Any suggestions, tips or other ways we can accomplish this Thanks Jason Jones Dayton, Ohio USA You are the third person to ask me this week. I ...Show All

• Commerce Server CS 2007 license and price ?

  Hi all, I am using the CS 2007 Evaluation for Developer. But in the future I want to use it for my customer. Is using CS 2007 Evaluation against law And how much is the price of the CS 2007 Thank you. I believe Caeser meant to write that the customer needs to choose between Standard and Enterprise edition. The developer edition, while free, limits the system to ~10 client connections. That's more than enough for a single user to debug an application, but you could see how that might have some problems when scaling out in an enterprise scenario. ...Show All

• Visual Basic Filter a Datable question.

  I have a datatable and I need to filter the data within it. I figured the datatable.select(...,...) method would be perfect for that...

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Bottomless RichTextBox

  Anyone know how it might be possible to implement a "bottomless" (self-sizing to fit content) RichTextBox-based control. The old Win32 RichText control has the EM_REQUESTRESIZE message which one could hook, I haven't been able to figure out whether the equivalent exists in the WPF control. Thanks, Jeremy Okay, thanks, you are correct that it grows downwards by default, but let me tell you what I really need: I want to be able to feed the control a bunch of formatted text, have it measure the text, and size itself just big enough in both width and height to contain the text without wrapping or scrolling. I only need to be editing a single line at a time, and I want to set it up so that t ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Compiler Warnings - Can I indicate I want the build to fail?

  Is there a way to indicate that I wish the team build to fail if any compiler warnings are encountered I think this is pretty straightforward - just put the following line into your TfsBuild.rsp files for each relevant build type: /p:WarningsAsErrors=true Just a quick warning though - without some sort of gated checkin process in place, this is very likely to cause build breaks on a pretty regular basis, since builds will succeed on developers machines but fail under Team Build. -Aaron ...Show All

• Windows Forms Custom Form Control (Label)??

  Hi: I'm trying to create a TYPE that is a Label but with the Font and margins changed. I've learned that the font size, etc. are not available to write at run time. So, I need to be able to create a new Label at run time but with slightly different property values than the stock Label. I can't figure out for the life of me how to do that. I can create a User Control and put a Label on it but I really just want a slightly different Label. Can I do that in VS 2005 C# If so, how Sure there is. Create a new class and inherit from label - you can then treat it like a label in every way public class SomeCustomLabel : Label { public SomeCustomLabel() { //Set custom properties here } } Now, in other pl ...Show All
