• Smart Device Development Pointer to Bitmap object in CF v1.1

  I have a dll to which I need to pass in a pointer to the first byte of a bitmap object. In CF v2.0, I can just use the BitmapData.Scan0 method. However, this does not exist in v1.1. I have looked at the bitmap formats but am struggling to work this out. The bitmap file already exists on the device. I simply need to pass a pointer to it (as an IntPtr) to the third party dll. The bitmap file has to be an 8 bit format. Can anyone advise me on this please Thanks. ...Show All

• Internet Explorer Development ActiveX Modal Dialogs do not work in IE7

  Our product is suffering some pretty severe problems because of IE7. We've starting getting calls that dialog windows become hidden. We've heard this is a threading issue. We found out that the problem is actually much worse. Modal dialogs don't seem to function correctly in IE7. You can recreate the problem using VB6 by doing this: 1. Create an ActiveX UserControl project. 2. Add a form to the project (form1) 2. Put a button on the user control (usercontrol1). 3. Add this code to usercontrol1. Private Sub Command1_Click() Dim objForm As Form1 Set objForm = New Form1 Call objForm.Show(vbModal) End Sub 4. Build the project as an OCX somewhere on your hard drive. 5. Find your control's CLSID in regedit. I ...Show All

• Windows Forms Tutorials on imaging for beginners

  I am trying to make a bitmap font program. I want it to allow the user to assign an image to each char of the standard ascii lineup. Then when a user types in a textbox, it will create an image based on the contents of that box. I have seen some freeware programs that do this but are harder to use than needed. I have tried to ask for the source code (since they are freeware) but the authors have refused. So I have decided to make my own. I have no idea how to create the image though. Is there any tutorials for people who have never done anything with images in vb.net before If you want more information on what I am trying to do then please ask. Thank you, Troy L. I just tried the method you posted and realized that it was kind of li ...Show All

• SQL Server how report manager works?

  Understand how Report Manager functions internally through the use of classes in the ReportingServicesWebUserInterface assembly and leverage its undocumented functionality. Hi, The power of the report manager is not in the report manager itself. Reporting Services is implemented as a web service. Report Manager is just an interface (.APSX) on top of that. If needed, you can create your own interface using any language that understands web services. Greetz, Geert   Geert Verhoeven Consultant @ Ausy Belgium My Personal Blog ...Show All

• Windows Search Technologies Defining file locations to be indexed in WDS 3

  I’m having several problem defining file locations to be searched. These problems seem to have appeared since I upgraded to WDS v3. I have reinstalled it twice. I have wholly deleted it and reinstalled once. I’m running XP Home SP2. I tend to run programs hygienically – generally as a limited account (user), and the user’s files are set “private” (though I have taken this off, and it appears to make no difference.) Problems: The documentation talks of the WDS Options having a “General” tab. I don’t get one. I just get a single window called “Indexing Options”. Maybe this is just a documentation error, because the same happens in the Admin account. When in the Admin account, the indexing option offers C: ...Show All

• SQL Server Installing SQL Server 2005 Standard, Note: 1: 1708, Installation failed.

  Hi, I first attempted to install SQL Server 2005 with the management tools, SQL server services installed ok but the management tools did not install. I tried to re-install the management tools but the setup program thought that they were already installed. I then un-installed everything in Add/Remove programs, & rebooted. I then tried to install again but this time it thought that the SQL server services were already installed. I removed the services from the registry and rebooted again. Now when I try to install SQL Server 2005 it simply fails The last message in the log is "Note: 1: 1708 MSI (s) (A0:6C) [15:34:23:656]: Product: Microsoft SQL Server 2005 -- Installation failed" Any help would be appreciated MSI ...Show All

• Visual Studio DerivedTypes

  I wrote a C# program, that uses the VCCodeModel to parse another C++ source code for documentaion purposes. Now I want to know which classes are derived from a class, similiar to the base classes collection. For this I used VCCodeClass.DerivedTypes property, but which throws an exception: System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException (0x8CE00005). Is there any way to get a collection of all classes thar derives from a base class The code model has limited features for some requests like yours, and it depends on the language (VC, VB, C#). This is because the code model does not actually use or has the same power than the parser/compiler. Another approach in your case is to get all classes in your projec ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Where's the Texture2D.Pitch? & Shader Problem

  I am trying to build a Texture2D. However, the function that I'm trying to work with from Direct3D pushes the bytes in using the D3DLOCKED_RECT. This struct has two members, pBits (which is the pointer to the bits), and the Pitch (which is the width of a row, right ). So, I can certainly create my texture with the same format: D3DFMT_A8R8G8B8, which I assume is SurfaceFormat.Color. So far so good. However, I'm trying to convert this function but there's no concept as Pitch in the new texture object. Is Pitch = 4 automatically in the Texture2D class Here's the function in C++: .code {word-wrap:break-word;margin:10px;padding:10px;border:2px ridge white;background-color:#eeeeee;font-family:Courier New;font-size:10pt;} ...Show All

• .NET Development how to not include base class in shema

  Hello I have three classes A,B,C. B derves from A and C derives from B. I only want to include A and C in the wsdl so that the client does not see B. I tried to use the [ XmlType (IncludeInSchema = false )] on B but then C wont be included either. Even adding [ XmlType (IncludeInSchema = true )] to C wont include C. How can this be done I do not want to include B and B:s properties should not be seen in C either. Thanks Thank you Rodrigo. My question was not rather good. I’ll try to scale down and simplify :) I have a web method like this: [ WebMethod ] [ XmlInclude ( typeof ( B ))] public A GetA( string paramInB) { return Foo GetA(paramInB); } public A FooGetA( string paramInB) { B b ...Show All

• Visual Basic COM+ Component registration for VB6 dll

  Hi, I am having a dll that forms a part of a COM+ application. I have changed a piece of code and not touched any of the method signatures, hoping not to destroy the compatability. I have replaced the existing dll with my new one and restarted IIS and COM+ services that use this dll. Should i have to register the dll again or will it work (should it work ) Please respond as this is under a hot discussion with my team.. Many Thanks and Best Regards, Franklin Thank you so much ! I have already tested and proved as you said. Things are fine. I will take this as a conformation and blow-off all those who say "may be this works in test environment..But..".. :-) Thanks again ! ...Show All

• Windows Forms Font ctor throws exception, how?

  I had a customer report an exception which seemed to be thrown by the Font ctor when the font was missing (my code tried to create a "Verdana" Font object and he had deleted his Verdana font). However, I can't repro the exception on my PC. When I try to create a Font with a nonexistent facename (I tried "notVerdana"), I get no exception, just a working default font. Does anyone know a test configuration (Windows version, .NET version, bad font installation ) which will make the Font ctor throw an exception Unfortunately it's a customer bug report so it's hard or impossible to discover the exact exception and .NET version, which is why I went fishing here.  Actually from ...Show All
