• Software Development for Windows Vista MSDTC error : Import of MSDTC transaction failed: Result Code = 0x8004d00e.

  Hi everyone! I suppose you've allready heard of this error, I've searched for answers on many other forums and groups but I didn't find a clear answer. So, for something to begin with - I am working on a VB 6.0 - 3 layered application and I get the error when the business layer is trying to persist some data. The broplem is that the transaction is not persisted - the application hungs and returns the "server busy" error. The wole application is blocked after this - when trying to save some data i keep getting this error. The persistent objects MTS transaction mode is set to "Requires transaction" and the component security levels are set to process level, the authentication level is None, and the ...Show All

• Windows Forms how can i change the source code of a webpage with webbrowser control??

  i want to add some source code to a webpage to add some functions for my own uses.... for example a webpage has a javascript function a(str){ ..... } i want to add an other function b to filter out some text.. so function a(str) {b(str); .... }.. In debug mode it gets rid of the script. But it's already too late. When I hit viewsource it is still there, but in step-thru debug mode it goes away as n element. I don't have Navigated event. I'm using the webbrowser com control in .net. This should not be this hard...anyone ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Button KeyDown - No response

  This is a dumb question but why does the keypress and keydown not work on the button The properties are there and you get no error when compiling and running it. It just does not respond to the events. I have only one button on form1. In the keydown event I have: Private Sub Button1_KeyDown( ByVal sender As Object , ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyEventArgs) Handles Button1.KeyDown MessageBox.Show(e.KeyCode.ToString) End Sub The messagebox never shows. Maybe I will have to reinstall VB Express.   ...Show All

• Windows Forms Another ListView Question

  i have setup a ListView control after much hard work but stumbled onto a problem, when you add new items then close the application then run it again the items are no longer remembered should the ListView control remember whats been added and if so how can it be done thanks btw im using MS VS 2005 C++ Are you talking about the Add/Remove methods of the items collection If so they work exactly as they should. Very few control have I ever encountered that have a built in method for saving and restoring their data. And for good reason IMO. If I want to save the data then I save the data, to a datebase or elsewhere. This way I can reload this data to any interface, so my winforms app populates the listview with the data ...Show All

• Visual C# Using a Console with a Windows Form...

  Alright, I've been searching but I can't find anything related to my question... I need to use a Console with my Windows Form (for debug purposes). How do I "add" a Console Another thing... I need to find out how to make a rich text box unwritable. Thanks! To write debug information while running a Windows Application containing form, you may use a custom Console to print console output. Console can take a output stream where it can write console message. You can set a output stream in the following way: Console.SetOut(new ConsoleWriter(rtxtConsole)); Where ConsoleWriter is a custom stream writer into which the console message will be printed. Here is the ConsoleWriter code: public class ConsoleWriter: Tex ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Why are so many important design time classes internal only?

  I'm attempting to create an activity in a similar style to IfElseBranchActivity. This allows you to select the type of condition, and then set the properties on it. It does this by using a custom TypeConverter and overriding GetStandardValues which creates instances of the possible derived types, and then you can bind their properties. Now the first bit I've managed to do fine, but when it comes to binding the properties of the objects created by the TypeConverter, I get the error that only dependency properties can be bound. So I look at how the ConditionTypeConverted manages to create properties so that they get bound, and there are literally thousands of lines of code in internal classes like PropertyDescriptorFilter, and internal cl ...Show All

• Audio and Video Development Question about time format in createTimer

  1) How can I use miliseconds in createTimer function 2) How many miliseconds contain one frame It depends on your "framerate" (set in the playlist). If you are running at 60fps, then 1 frame = 1000/60 = 16.7 ms. If you are running at 24fps, then 1 frame = 1000/24 = 41.7 ms. For "framerate", if you are using the page or application clocks, then the framerate is your tickBase. If you are using the title clock, framerate is the timeBase. Note that anything faster than framerate / tickBaseDivisor (set in the Title element) won't happen that fast anyways, since your application will ignore the intermediate ticks. So, if you have 24fps and your tickBaseDivisor is 2, that mean ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Creating contexts/running activities

  I have a sequential workflow and 3 child activities. Now my goal is to make my workflow execute again from activity 1 when I'm finishin to execute the second activity (return back). What I'm doing to achieve that is overriding the Execute method on my workflow to provide some custom behavior and bind to the Closed event of each workflow. Like this: protected override ActivityExecutionStatus Execute(ActivityExecutionContext executionContext) { foreach (Activity activity in this.EnabledActivities) { if (activity is ControlFlow.ControlActivity) { ControlActivity controlActivity = (ControlActivity)activity; controlActivity.Closed += new EventHandler<ActivityExecutionStatusChangedEventArgs>(controlA ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Keyboard/Mouse Input under XNA Framework

  From my reading, my understanding is that XNA Framework will use XINPUT. By design, XINPUT handles game controllers specifically and does not address keyboards, mice, or other HID devices. AFAIAA, current guidance given for DirectInput to XINPUT transition on the Windows platform is to handle keyboard and mouse input via traditional Windows messages or System.Windows.Forms events. However, we are now being advised that cross-platform application implementations built on XNA Framework will need to refrain from referencing the System.Windows.Forms namespace, and that ideally our application window will be managed by GraphicsComponent. Furthermore, on the 360, there would likely not be any Windows message stream from which to handle input fro ...Show All
