• SQL Server What is necessary to create SDF-Files on desktop legally?

  I want to write a PC application that prepares a SQL Server Mobile Files (.SDF) and sends it to a PocketPC. I get this error message: "SQL Mobile usage is restricted on this platform. To use SQL Mobile, you must install SQL Server 2005, Visual Studio 2005, or the Tablet PC SKU" If I install "SQL Server 2005 Express" the error message disappears and everything works fine.

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Passing WindowsIdentity between services for use with Azman

  Hi all, The following scenario: a client connects to a service passing its WindowsIdentity (WI), e.g. domain\user, using wsHttpBinding. The service uses the WI for authorizing using Azman. The service depends on another service (which could also be called by other clients in different scenario's). The second service also has to authorize the WI of the initial client (domain\user). client --> service 1 --> service 2 | | AzMan AzMan Default, wsHttpBinding passes the WI of the 'intermediairy' service (the first service called, e.g. domain\network service) to the second service. This way the second service authorizes the service (domain\network service) and not the initial caller (domain\user). ...Show All

• SQL Server how can i select numeric columns only?

  hi all, how can i select numeric (int, money, numeric, etc) columns only from syscolumns. i need to run a sum() aggregate on all numeric columns thanks, joey Good catch. At some point, it might just be easier to explicitly list the types. A not null precision is supposed to indicate numeric, but it includes datetime and char ( ). The test for xtype = xusertype eliminates the user defined types. There are only 25 total, so making an explicit list would not be difficult. The test for precision only eliminates 3 types. Using xprec and prec helps. Here's another cut: Select * from systypes where xtype = xusertype and xprec is not null and prec is not null And collation is null and name not like '%time%' and nam ...Show All

• Visual C++ Hexadecimal Representation of an object?

  Hi, I would like to get the hexadecimal representation of an object and display it as a String, how would this been done using C++ .Net (VS 2003) Thanks! Well yes, there are ways to do this through the marshalling classes. I've only done it in VS2005 (.Net 2.0), though. I haven't got 2003 installed now, so I can't really be of much help with an approach for that platform. My suggestion, however, is that you try searching for serializing solutions. Those are often made up by functions which retrieve the binary representation of an object. ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Visual Studio C++ Express 2005 builds send my monitor nuts

  I'm running XP Home + SP2. Video adapter is NVidia GeForce 4 MX 440. Visual Studio C++ Express 2005. My monitor goes into a blackout/clicking frenzy due to resolution changes it believes exist during any build. This happens every time "Compiling..." appears in the Output window, and when "Linking..." comes up in it. This slows down my builds a lot, plus I can't use the machine for other tasks while all this is going on. The resolution appears to switch to some very low value, and the cursor appears as a fairly large white square on this black background. The problem lies somewhere in my Windows setup/registry. I know this because: a) It isn't Visual C++ 2005 Express itself - this behaviour doesn't manifest ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. So... What is XNA then?

  So XNA then is the next step of the DirectX API for .NET languages (previously called Managed DirectX), is just a new technology completely different that will be shiped in a separate way of DirectX or is the real way in which DirectX 10 will move, adding an "unmanaged" API for the past contents using Directx 8 and 9 Yes, ok, thanks. But the problem is that I did not post my question correctly. Till now, i had the conception that Managed DirectX was just a layer of Managed code for .NET languages (such as C#) to access the machine code of DirectX (from 8.1 to 9.c). Now you say that XNA is a complete new form of it because it uses the runtime of .NET 2.0 and is completely managed code , so I thought that XNA is actually the ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions creating .exe program

  i have created a software in VB but when i publish it in my desktop to get the setup file its in application-manifest format and not exe how can i make the program a exe program Well, its confusing to me.... I do not understand what are you trying to do by publishing it on desktop and trying to get setup file. I think to get setup file, you need to create a setup project, and you need to add the output of your project to the setup project. You need to check what type of output you are generating with your application. It could be Class Library (dll) OR could be Console/Windows form application (exe) ...Show All

• SQL Server How to send long string using SqlContext.pipe.send(strString)?

  Hi, I have a string almost 11006 length.. when i try to send back from SQLCLR procedure it says cannot send .. here is Exception Text " Message length 11060 exceeds maximum length supported of 4000." Max limit to send a string using pipe is 4000 How I can send a string which is large in size than 4000. Thanks SqlPipe.Send(String) sends back a message, not data. It is limited to 4000 characters because CLR procedures use Unicode. Send is in effect doing a T-SQL print statement which truncates strings that are too long. It meant to be an informational message for the client. If you are trying to send back a string as data from a CLR stored procedure one thing you could do is to add an output para ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Project Output Directories in Team Build

  Most of my VS projects have the output directory defined in the project settings as /bin, however when I run a Team Build, no bin directories are created, there are just obj directories. Why is this and can I change it because in some circumstances (like building a windows service) some of the output is not copied to the obj folder, it is copied to the Binaries folder. Removing the $(OutDir) property from C:\Program Files\MSBuild\Microsoft\VisualStudio\v8.0\TeamBuild\Microsoft.TeamFoundation.Build.targets will cause the output for every project to go to its "normal" location. (e.g. ..\< MyProject >\bin\< Configuration >)   However this hack prevents code analysis and unit tests fr ...Show All
