• Visual Studio Team System checking event raise method

  Basically I want to create a custom rule that checks that event raising method have the following structure (As you will see, we didn't see the point with the object sender, EventArgs e thing, so we decided to skip that...) protected void OnFoo( int foo, int bar) { FooEventHandler handler = Foo; if (handler != null ) { try { handler(foo, bar); } catch ( Exception e) { m_logger.Error( "Failed to do foo" , e); } } } For this, I figured that I'd override Check(Member member) cast to Method, then walk trough .Instructions Specific questions: - how do I know that the callvirt Invoke to handler(foo, bar) is in fact an event raising operation and not let' ...Show All

You might have different datetime format settings for your local machine and the server machine running ASP pages ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Problems when designing Workflows "top down"

  Over the last few days I have been getting to grips with windows workflow foundation for some "non trival" business workflows. I tend to take a top down approach, creating some stubbed out activities, dropping them into workflows then continuing to update the workflows and the activities that they contain at the same time. The trouble is, WF in visual studio doesent seem to like this approach. I get some particularly nasty errors if I do things like rename the workflow file or add new dependency properties to an activity after I have dropped it onto a workflow. I have had to resort to hacking thew xoml to try and delete activities from the design surface (which is no doubt making my problems worse). At the moment I am struggl ...Show All

• Visual Basic conversion wizard 2005

  I downloaded the 101 code samples from the microsoft site. I went to load a few of them and the conversion wizard runs each time. I let it run and after it is done the solution is unavailable. There are no errors or warnings or any other indication to tell me what may be wrong. 1 or 2 of the files say converted but the project has not been converted. I am running 2005 standard edition. I admit I am a newbie to vs, but not to programming. Please lead me down a path that will shed some light on this problem. There are two sets of samples one for 03 and one for 05.....if you download the ones for 05 there should not be any conversion: 101 Code Samples for VB 2005 101 Code Samples for VB 2003 ...Show All

• Visual C# problem about treeview in Dot net 2.0

  When a treeview have too many node(more than 65536,maybe), it can not diplay it! I write a small programm to test it, the code is below: You can create a new window application and copy the code to test it. If the child node number is 65535 or 65536, the scrollbar of treeview is gone and the treeview acts strange! If the numer is 100000, id only display just mor than 30000 nodes. I have searched msdn for the information of this problem, but got nothing. Does treeview have limitation on number of its child nodes Or the problem is caused by the scrollbar of the treeview private void InitializeComponent() { this .components = new System.ComponentModel.

• SQL Server Overlay of textboxes are not rendering properly

  In the page header I have a rectangle that has 2 textboxes on the same line and both are the full length of the page. One textbox has text centered and the other has text right justified. When I render report in Studio or print it, the text appears on the same line and justified like I want, but when the report is rendered when I call the report by URL, the textboxes wrap, like it's taking the width of each textbox in account. Has anyone seen this Any suggestions on how to overlay text on the same line and the text keep their own individual characteristics I am having this problem too. I have a template with a standard heading including one image and 4 textboxes. The template includes a boolean parameter ...Show All

• Visual C# Exception Breakpoint on Application Termination

  I am using C# 2005 Express edition. My application runs fine but on closing I get the following message (for some reason I can't take a screenshot of the dialog) The exception breakpoint A breakpoint has been reached (0x80000003) occurred in the application at location 0x7c90130 This happens in the debug version and release version. My first reaction was that I had left a breakpoint in the program, my second that it is related to the debug version. I am new to C#2005 and could not find any swicth to change the build type from debug to release so don't know if calling for a Build automatically created a Build version. I would like to get rid of it since it would be annoying for my users Thanks in ad ...Show All

• SQL Server COLUMN GRAND TOTALS ARE INCORRECT FOR CALCULATED FIELDS IN VIRTUAL CUBE

  Hello, We have migrated some cubes from sqlserver 2000 to 2005 with success. The applicaticon contains one virtual cube made up from 6 other cubes. On the virtual cube level we specified calculated fields. The calculation contains elements from different cubes which shares dimensions. while browsing the cube from within sql server management studio or from excel using OLEDb 9.0 Provider we discovered that the column grand totals for these calculated fields are incorrect. The row grand totals are fine. Searching the internet (google) i have found a hotfix describing the problem SQL MSAS 2005 ( http://support.microsoft.com/kb/918251 ). We have installed this hotfix on top of SP1 but without results. Is somebody familiar with this ...Show All

• Smart Device Development static constructors in compact framework - size limit?

  If anyone has seen this before, I would appreciate some advice or a workaround. I'm trying to use a static constructor in a class using several jagged arrays. I can add a few of them, and it works okay, but after a certain limit, the application either throws a "System.NotSupportedException" or a fatal application error 0xC00000005. I haven't found anything on the web, and the application runs fine on the desktop. I trimmed this down to make the jagged arrays readable, but it looks like a textbook example of static constructors. public class MainClass { static void Main() { huffcodetab.inithuff(); } } public class huffcodetab { private static int[][] ValTab0; private static int[][] ValTab1; ...Show All
