This is to be done only, if your are using Server Edition not the Dev lite edition. Second: Change the followin ...Show All

• .NET Development Trouble catching exception

  Hi, I am having this problem catching a exception in a try catch block as shown below try { DialogResult result; result = wizard.ShowDialog(); } catch (PackageCreationException e) { MessageBox.Show(e.Message, "Failed", MessageBoxButtons.OK, MessageBoxIcon.Warning); } now the wizard is a form which throws a PackageCreationException if it fails this works fine if it is run in the Visual Studio environment but when run as a standalone application this exception is not caught.

• Visual C# Application - Properties: An error occurred trying to load the page.

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Connecting XNA to Xbox 360

  I'm trying to connect my xbox to my PC so I can test some of the games I have made with XNA and I've been having a bit of trouble. Everytime I connect it says "Your console didn't obtain an IP address from your DHCP server" no matter what I do with the network settings. Can somebody tell me what I should do to get this working please I can connect to xbox live because with that I just connect directly to the modem but with XNA I am trying to connect to the PC and it just won't assign an IP address. I also cannot connect to the PC using the windows connect thing either. When I run the diagnostic it gives me the error I have in my first post. ...Show All

• Visual Studio Can't use "Edit & Continue" feature due to error PRJ0046

  I just converted a C++ project from Visual Studio 6 to 2005 and I find that I can not use "Edit and Continue". Edit and Continue worked fine in the VS 6 project. In VS 2005 I stop execution at a break point, edit some code, and choose "Apply Code Changes". VS 2005 respond with the error below: "Project : error PRJ0046 : Could not spawn command line because the one specified was empty." MSDN has the following infor about PRJ0046 An empty command line was specified for a makefile configuration; the command line is required. Any ideas on what these error messages mean I went through the project settings and everything looked fine to me. I just noticed that this probl ...Show All

• Visual C++ Running problem with a C++ executable (Debug build)

  Hi, I produced a debug build C++ executable program using MFC in VS 2005. The program runs perfectly with the computer in which it was created, but it can't run with other computers that don't have similar development environments but are equiped with all necessary dlls. An error message saying configuration is incorrect appears whenever the program is launched. MFC is set to be used in a shared dll in the program. To locate the reason that causes the problem, I blocked each possibly relevant environmental component in the system, such as .NET, Visual Studio, and directories containing libraries that were linked into the program. Despite these, the program runs normally in the computer where it was created. Should anybody have any ideas ...Show All

• .NET Development DateTime compare difference

  Hi Everyone. I have two middle tiers that use their DateTime.UtcNow to update a synchronization object in memory and in a db. Even if the machines are a bit off in their internal times, i need to make sure that i'm comparing consistent datetimes. Seems to me that: (1) i need to fetch one consistent UTC time from somewhere that is machine time agnostic (2) when i compare the times, that i compare with a tolerance, of say 3 minutes (allowing the machines to be 3 minutes apart, either way...earlier or later). How could i do #1 and #2 For #2, i was doing this: if ( DateTime.Compare( memory.LastModifiedTime, database.LastModifiedTime) < 0 ) How do i do this with a tolerance of 3 minutes (1) You should e ...Show All

• Visual Studio Local vs Server Processing

  I'm still fairly new to this and I'm still having trouble getting my head around local vs server processing. I've looked at the help at http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms251704(VS.80).aspx In my case I have a windows application with a SQL Server database that I want to re-do the reporting in. There could potentially be 1000s of rows of report data, so I don't know if that leans towards server. That link does say "Local processing mode is recommended for applications that include small to medium-sized reports and datasets" but whats classed as "medium-sized" We have a standard set of reports, but I want each report to be taylored to the individual customer concerned. This could involve changing formatt ...Show All

• SQL Server Best Protocol?

  What is the best protocol (Named Pipes, TCP/IP or VIA) to use when connecting to a SQL Server 2005 on: a) LAN (100MBps+) b) VPN (via Internet) c) Internet And why I do not believe the article about choosing a connection type to the server answers the question. In my opinion it is ovbious that the LAN is the best just because of the TCP/IP connection method being able to take advantage of low overhead, hi bandwidth connections. VPN is guaranteed to be slower than the LAN because the protocol is sitting on top of TCP/IP and will inherently add more overhead. As far as Internet goes, I am not sure what the difference b/w LAN and Internet is going to be as far as which protocol to us ...Show All
