• Visual J# Is J# an CLS compliant language?

  hai, I read that c#, VB.net, vc++ are Common Language Specification(CLS) compliant language. I want to know whether J# is an CLS compliant language.Also, does it have controls similar to Java Swing or VB.net Controls(i.e, TextBox, Label) Is java swing controls/components does Visual Studio supports or J# has its own components. How J# differs from C# anyone please help me.... thanks a lot.... friend, M.S.P.Saami. My opinion is that J# is kinda drop off... C# is THE .NET language, if you prefer, and is designed for .NET. It has little difference to java, but not anything a smart programmer can't handle. Get a C# book, read it through and you are ready to start working with C#. The logic is what matters in codin ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Checkin Policy Override Report

  I'm at a client who would like to have a report that shows the following in regards to checkin policy overrides: - Who - Which policy - Comment entered when overriding the policy - Changeset ID - Team project - Files checked in (optional) I could not find all of this data in the cubes in TFSWarehouse. I did some looking around to see what others had done and came across a console app that listed this type of data using the object model. That could work, but is not the ideal soution for this situation. So I decided to write a query against the relational tables. It seems to work, but I wanted run it past some of you to make sure I have not incorrectly interpreted some of the relationships. SELECT tp.[team project], cs.changesetid, p.p ...Show All

• Visual C++ Creating a new Task Object with CDOEX

  I am attempting to create a new Task object for a given Exchange 2003 user via CDOEX, but do not know how to reference Task objects. Using the Exchange 2003 SDK (and the instructions found here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp url=/library/en-us/e2k3/e2k3/_esdk_samples_createappointment_intro.asp ), I can easily and reliably create a new calendar item for a given user.

• Visual C++ location of string tables?

  I'm building a Win32 console application where I want to use Unicode. The simplest solution seems to be putting all strings into a string table. My question is: where is this string table placed when the application is compiled & linked If I always pass legal string ID's to LoadString() where the buffer is of sufficient size, is there ever a situation where LoadString will return zero (fail) Thanks. The string table is placed inside the executable (or dll if you are compiling a dll). Failures should be rare, out of memory situation or errors when reading the executable/dll pages from disk. ...Show All

• SQL Server SQL variable and IS variable in Execute SQL Task

  Hi,   I have an Execute SQL Task (OLE DB Connnection Manager) with a SQL script in it. In this script I use several SQL variables (@my_variable). I would like to assign an IS variable ([User::My_Variable]) to one of my SQL variables on this script. Example:   DECLARE @my_variable int , <several_others> SET @my_variable = <do_some_stuff>   Of course, I also set up the parameter mapping. However, it seems this is not possible. Assigning a variable using a only seems to work in simple T-SQL statements. I have several reasons for wanting to do this: - the script uses several variables, several times. Not all SQL variables are assigned via IS variables. - For read ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions SubString Count routine

  Is there a simple way to count the occurences of a string within a string or stringbuilder maxlines=bigstring.count(",") Something like that or do I have to write my own function Or is there a function out there that someone can point me to Thanks. you could use Regex (regular expressions) also as this is what it's designed to do and is appropriate I believe. Regex will not only find the words for you but you can also find the number of instances of that word you want to match, within the specified string. I'm not great on regex but hope that these resources help you, and is the correct way of doing things than tons of string parsing etc.... and well, easier to a certain extent http ...Show All

• SQL Server Problems Deleting / Renaming Dimensions

  I had a problem with a dimension and so decided to re-created it. Once I was happy with the new dimension I deleted the old and renamed the new to what the old one was called previously. When I try and build my cube I get the following error: Error 18 Errors in the metadata manager. The dimension with the name of 'dim_product' already exists in the 'Sales_AS' database. Not sure why this is happening as I thought I'd got rid of all trace of the old dimension. If I rename the new dimension I have no problem. Is anyone able to explain what's going on here Thanks. If you deploy with the default settings the old dimension still exists on the server and if you want too deploay a second one with t ...Show All
