  Lately this stupid Visual studio 2005 have made this little problem. When i change my code and tries to run it, it doesn't recompile the new added code but just keeps using the old one!

Ive tried changing the backcolor, adding lots of buttons and writting strange text in the ed ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express editions documentation

  Looking at the page that lists the differences between the various visual studio versions I see that the express editions have " 10mb "Getting Started"; Starter Kits targed at first-time programmers; 200mb optional MSDN Express" while the pay versions have MSDN. What kind of documentation is missing from the express versions I was looking through the .NET docs and it looked like some things are missing. For example in the class library section there was only documentation for the System namespace (this was the only top level namespace available). On the other hand I don't have much experience with .NET so maybe I am just missing something.Is there away to add the full MSDN doc package or is this only for the ...Show All

• Visual C++ Linking an app in debug mode (with /MDd) against static lib built in release mode (with /MD)

  I remember this sort of mixing used to work fine prior to VS2005. But now it doesn't seem to. This suggests that one has to have a debug and a release versions of each library to be able to compile a debug and a release version of the application. The following short example results in an access violation exception: Compile A.* into a.lib in release mode with /MD (it doesn't matter if compiled with or without optimization): File A.h: #include <vector> class A { public : std::vector< double > v; A( int x) {} ~A(); }; File A.cpp: #include "A.h" A::~A() { } Compile app.cpp in debug mode with /MDd: File app.cpp: #include "A.h" void main() { A a(4); } The ex ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Flattening hierarchical data

  Hello, I'm trying to work with some hierarchical data, but I can't find a way to bind to it in a flattened way. For example, using the HierarchicalDataTemplate example project, it shows how to do a Menu, and a Treeview, but how about just a plain ListBox I would like to be able to display a list of all the teams (in all the divisions of all the leagues) in a list box. Of course I could just create a flattened list in code by traversing over the data myself, but then this would not be bound, so would not update when a team, division, or league were added or removed). I was hoping for something like Path=Divisions/Teams, but that only seems to take teams from the first division. Thanks in advance, Alex ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Scrolling to selected index in listbox

  I have a listbox defined in XAML which is databound to an XML source of about 2000 items. This populates without a problem.

It does highlight the appropriate row because if I manually scroll down it is selected.

• SQL Server How to handle multivalue field?

  Here is my scenerio: I tried to do a comprehensive catalog of my classical music collection, and my most basic unit of data is a track from a CD. As it happens, a track have a variable number of performers (e.g. a symphony may contains a conductor and an orchestra, a string quintet may contains five members, a piano trio contains three members, etc.), so I can't easily provide a field for performers. I have a table for performers and another for tracks (along with other things). Since I have a large number of tracks, it would be very undesirable to create an additional table relating every individual artist with a track (it would blow up the database size and is rather unnecessary). So my ideal solution is a multivalue field for perf ...Show All
