• Visual C++ Class View is not updated automatically

  I've created a plain C++ win32 project with Visual Studio 2005. And as I add new functions or variables, the class view doesn't get updated automatically. Only way to get class view populated with newly added functions or variables is to restart VS. But every thing works fine with C# projects. ONLY with C++ projects. I've tried to reproduce this on other machines at my work and on my laptop, but I have failed to reproduce the same problems. I am seeing this problem only on my pc at home. I've also tried re-installing XP SP2 and VS2005 with nothing else installed to see if some other program is causing this to happen. But still same problems with the class view. Also, I am seeing the same problem on Windows Vista RC2. Could ...Show All

• SQL Server Announcing a GUI tool for configuring dialog security and routing

  Hi, I am not able to get “Service Broker” under my database Can you tell me what is wrong with my installation Regards, If you are using SQL Server Management Studio Express, it does not have the functionality to view or create Service Broker objects. The paid version of the same lets you view Service Broker objects but not create them. Unfortunately, the only way to create, alter and use Service Broker objects is via T-SQL commands. Please look at the Service Broker section of Books Online, the SQL Server online documentation on MSDN. ...Show All

• SQL Server Error 15401 Adding Domain Group to SQL Server

  I have tried rebooting the system, I have ran the script to look for duplicate sids and am still having the issue when trying to add a domain group to SQL. I get the Error 15401: Windows NT user or group'mi\Trust Legal' not found. Check the name again. Running SQL 2000 Std, with SP3a, and the collation is set to SQL_Latin1_General_CP850_BIN, which makes this instance case sensitive, and the group name is spelt right and am following the case sensitivity of the name as well. Most likely the cause of such failure is because the SQL Server cannot gather the information for this account from the domain controller. Please make sure that the service account used to run SQL Server has permission to query the domain controller ( ...Show All

• SQL Server Spurious Errors With Package Execution on Local Machine

  I am having strange errors with a package when running locally that has not been an issue before. The main symtom is that several Data Flow Tasks are either not inserting records on the destination or are only inserting 1 single record before the package errors with the error shown below. Strangely, the debugger will show X # of records from source and destination, but either no records are actually written or, again, in many cases, only 1 single record is written. This is very strange. App, System and Security logs yield no indication of security or other errors. All I have to go on is the above anomolies and the error message provided below. Below is the error message, can someone help me decrypt it Many thanks, Rick ...Show All

  I've purposely been ignoring a CA2122 warning in some C++ interop code I've been working on for quite some time.  I've just recently had the cycles to investigate the warning  The warning message is as follows Warning CA2122 : Microsoft.Security : MyClass.Method():Void calls into Marshal.GetExceptionPointers():IntPtr which has a LinkDemand.

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Xbox Live Arcade

  Do any of you reckon that it's possible to make a game using the XNA express framework, and then get it published (by MS or otherwise). I think, looking at the standard of games on Xbox Live Arcade, that I can make a much better game than anything there.   johnnyXNA wrote: What's to stop "underground" gaming or is it "indie" gaming from having some really great titles and distribute them themselves Is that against the EULA Probably nothing, and you may be able to do this to some extent. It's just that if you want your game on the Marketplace with a MS Point pricetag you'll need to go through the whole developer process.

• Visual C++ Automatically adding header files to a project

  Is there a command to automatically scan C/C++ files for #include directives and add the relevant files to the project as dependencies. I'm sure this used to be in previous versions but can't find it anywhere. Thanks very much for the reply but I dont quite understand it. There used to be an option somewhere in Visual Studio that you could select which would examine all your source files for #include directives and then add automatically under the Header Files list in Solution Explorer the header files that it found. This is the option I cannot now find. ...Show All
