• Visual C++ Intellisense becoming unable to resolve objects

  I'm posting this here and not in the general Visual Studio forum because my experience so far tells me the situation with C++ is different than with, say, C# (I have so far at least one example where VS's tools behave worse in the C++ environment than in that of C#). I have Intellisense getting confused and unable to resolve objects so often that I find myself closing the solution, deleting the *.ncb file, and reopening the solution. It almost makes me wish I had a "rebuild Intellisense" button... Kamen I totally agree with you. Meanwhile, it is important to note that we won't be able to help unless you provide us with a reproducible case so that we can investigate. I will invesitigate further from my side but can't ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Model generation wizard working backwards or is the programmer backwards? :)

  I have a table (again, using the video game stuff as my sample to play with): ID Title Description Rating (int, refers to the ID column in GameRatings) Type (int, refers to the ID column in GameTypes) Rating and Type both have foreign keys that point to the source tables GameRatings and GameTypes respectively. I have Associations in my Entity model that have produced classes called FK_VideoGames_TitleRatings and FK_VideoGames_VideoGameTypes. That all appears fine. However, I don't appear to have any navigation ability to allow me to do things like: game.Type.Name or game.Rating.Name Is there something I missed in the DB to allow for this automatic member generation, or, if the wizard doesn't do it, what do I have to do to my pre-generated ...Show All

• Windows Forms How to speed up datagridview

  Hi, I have a datagridview and i bind it to an arraylist. The arraylist contains about 50 000 of records. When a large number of rows(say 49000) being selected and I try to remove them all at once, it's such a lengthy process almost takes me 20mins. I have been looking for the solution all over the net, but i still couldn't find any. I have read an article on "Using the Selected Cells, Rows, and Columns Collections Efficiently" but it didn't tell me how to determine which rows are selected. So I can't determine which rows need to be removed from the datagridview. Can anyone help me with the problem How are you removing the rows Many times it is faster to manipulate the datasource than the act ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista InvokeWorkflowActivity doesn't call 2nd workflow

  I'm trying to get one workflow to call another one. I tried using the invokeWorkflowActivity, I set the TargetWorkflow to the workflow that I want to get called. It's in another project so I added the project as a reference. What else do I have to set up in order for this to work properly. I get no errors, the first workflow starts and then completes as expected because the call to start the workflow is asyncronous. The problem is that my second workflow doesn't seem like it's getting called. I only associated the 1st workflow, do I need to associate the 2nd workflow too Thanks, -Somsong Hi, I have a similar problem that I cannot solve, I have two state machine workflows, one invoked from insid ...Show All

• SQL Server SQL Statement gets truncated at 7459 characters.

  Hello, I am debugging a SQL Server 2005 stored procedure that creates and executes dynamic SQL statements. One of these statements fails because it has a length of 7811. The statement is created in a varchar(8000) or varchar(max) and executed with exec(@variable). Apparently, the system tries to execute only the first 7459 characters of the command string, and it fails. Obviously, the query can be redesigned in a better way, but they are complex queries and there are hundreds of them, and i do not have the time to do it. The SQL Server documentation says that the length of a varchar can be up to 2^31 characters with varchar(max) declaration, and I hope for a way to enable these long queries to work.
