• Visual Studio Team System How to detect a conflict?

  Hi, can someone help me understand a bit better how to detect a checkin conflict programatically I mean, if I want to do a non-exclusive check out, modify a code and then try to do a check in automatically, how can I verify that a conflict is occurring The Checkin method call will throw a CheckinException instead of returning back a changeset.   The message (if english) will be something like TF10141: No files checked in: resolve the conflicts and try again, and you can check the Conflicts property on the CheckinException itself to access the conflicts if there were any. ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Load Testing Problem

  Hi, I am load testing our server's WCF service, which is running on a 2003 box. The service uses a WSHttpBinding binding. I have a simple console application that starts up a number of threads (currently 20), creates a proxy on each thread, and invokes the service every 30 seconds from that thread. In perfmon on the server, the ASP.NET 'Requests Current' counter remains at a steady 2, indicating only 2 requests from the client are being served at a time. Eventually it gets through them all, but if I up the number of threads to, say, 200 I get these errors: System.ServiceModel.Security.MessageSecurityException : An unsecured or incorrectly secured fault was received from the other party. See the inner FaultException for the fault c ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. XNA certification exam

  I apologize if this is not the right place to ask, but I've seen some requests for DirectX certification, for which there were(/are) no plans, and I've been wondering this about XNA since I first noticed it on the Startpage of VB express: Is there going to be an XNA certification exam, as part of a current development cert, or a MCGD cert for example (covering Net2.0 framework + C# + XNA ) It would justify spending some more time on learning all the ins-and-outs rather than 'just' what I need, and I'd love to see some MS Training Kits on XNA... If there is, can we expect to see a beta around the holidays or is this something for on the long term  I'm sure there will be a demand for such a cert from students, professi ...Show All

• .NET Development Get Hardware Detail from Drive Letter

  Hi all, May i know how we can get hardware detail from a Drive Letter by using VC++ .Net Hardware Detail are like GUID, Hardware ID, Friendly Name and etc. Regards in .NET 2.0 you can use the DriveInfo class to get a list of all drives installed or mapped on the system. Example: DriveInfo[] theDrives = DriveInfo.GetDrives(); foreach(DriveInfo curDrive in theDrives) { MessageBox.Show(curDrive.Name); } away from this....and into WMI. I see DiskDrive class has the DeviceID and the LogicalDisk has the Name. So somehow you need to perform some similar SQL Join statement or something. Ill see what I can try ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Newbie question - spawning new objects

  Hi folks, Apologies for asking a really simple question in the forums, but I'm hoping someone may be able to help me. I'm basically trying to create a very simple 2D XNA game in a week, from a background of not having programmed anything more complex than a VCR since Spectrum basic - it's for a magazine article, hence the need to cut a few corners when it comes to learning... I have a problem which - I'm sure - the solution will provide me with a Eureka moment in understanding how this is done. I've followed the excellent videos on LearnXNA.com and the built-in tutorials and have figured out how to draw sprites on to the screen and move them around. It's not much, but it's a start... How do I then add in new sprites as the game progr ...Show All
