• Visual C# Some help please

  I have figured out how to open webpages, but, if on the button click you open a webpage, say www.google.com. But, if you have a textbot on the program, and on the button click you want www.google.com/i-typed-this-in-the-textbot, how would you go about coding that Thanks Hello your post is a bit ambiguous to me. If you want to display the URL in a textbox: MyTextBox.Text = @"http://www.google.com"; If you want to launch the default browser with the URL from the textbox Process.Start(MyTextBox.Text);//Provided that the text is a valid URL If I missed something, please clarify it.

• Visual C++ Reading delimited data files using ifstream and getline? (sample erroneous code included)

  Hey guys! I have a question about reading delimited text files. I have a file in the following format delimited by space: JAMES SMITH 0 6 7 14 0 9 4 18 BARBARA WILSON 7 6 12 2 1 16 18 15 JENNIFER THOMAS 11 4 7 19 15 14 MARY JOHNSON 1 0 JOHN WILLIAMS 2 5 4 5 5 1 7 The problem is that my code doesn't read all lines. For instance, the file that i'm reading contains 450 entries, while the code will only process half of that. The others are just skipped. The Code i'm using is provided bellow: enum stdColumn { stdFirstName = 0, stdLastName = 1, stdStudentID = 2, stdNumOfCourses = 3, stdCourse1 = 4, stdCourse2 = 5, stdCourse3 = 6, stdCourse4 = 7, stdCourse5 = 8, stdCourse6 = 9 }; int stdLoadData( ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. MDX/C# GDI+'s ColorMatrix equavilent to Pixel Shader 2.0's... ?

  Hi. Would it be possible to transform colors with Pixel Shader 2.0 similar to GDI+ with C# This is to say that if I have 2 images -- day and night image, which I blend from one image to another, which I can do that with GDI+'s ColorMatrix class. But as resolution gets bigger, so will the GDI+ that will have to redraw at a slower rate, such as a resolution of 1920x1080. Direct3D (and the depricated DirectDraw) are faster than GDI+, so I wanted to take into account with the use of Pixel Shader 2.0 (or maybe 1.1) for smooth rendering. Just to let you know in case you'd might ask, I'm building a multi-media application--probably with DirectShow.net but I'd probably make use of new Vista's video technology for digital TV tuner but I bet i ...Show All

• Visual C++ problem with /arch:sse2 on AMD

  hello i work with VC++ 2005 on an AMD 3500+ venice processor although the cpu support SSE2, compiling with the option /arch:sse2 yields a much slower code then the regular release build without this option. any ideas 10x, eyal. /arch:SSE2 doesn't generate only SSE2 instructions but rather a mix of x87 & SEE2. There could be some cases where the code might be slower (although in general, it should be faster).
