• Smart Device Development Windows CE.Net Version 4.20

  Ok, I have an application developed on VS 2005, and it runs fine on Windows Mobile 5.0. Now, I've tried to install and run on CE.Net Ver 4.20 and it doesn't run at all. I've had a look around on this site and found some info, and I installed the .NET framework service pack 1 patch, and then I copied over the NETCFv2.wce4.ARMV4.cab file. Then it goes wrong! I try to install, and it doesn't want to know it - I get a message '....failed to install because the installation file is not intended for this device' So, is there any way around this, or is that it, no go There's no NETCF V2 ARMV4I CAB for CE 4.2, ARMV4I binaries are inside ARMV4 CAB. If you look through the log file you'll see how they are deployed. So you do have ...Show All

• Visual C# a question regarding c# current situation

  I am a newbie and was wondering, where does C# currently stands in I thought its popularity was on the rise specially in games, but I just saw the article in the front page saying that it has fallen down one slot in the popularity rankings compared to last year. do you guys think that it will be more popular in the future Also, as someone who is just entering this world, is there anything that you can do with c++ that you cant do with c# and vice versa I would like to know a little comparison. Thanks in advanced !! To address the second part of your question, the short answer is "no." The longer answer is "maybe, but you can call C++ code from C#." That means you have access to all the standard Windows libraries, and an ...Show All

• Visual FoxPro Wrangling a Grid

  I know that this is bucking the norm, but I am trying to use a grid to edit data in a cursor that I have created from a local table. The problem I am having is that the columns containing numeracle values or integers, the control becomes readonly. I have the grid on a form, and I am assigning the recordsource and controlsource programmatically after creating the cursor in the Init method of the form. Thanks in Advance - Any help would be appreciated. Probably you're causing it to be readonly unintentionally somewhere. Otherwise it works w/o problems. ie: PUBLIC oForm oForm = CREATEOBJECT ("myForm") oForm. Show DEFINE CLASS myForm as Form datasession = 2 ADD OBJECT my ...Show All

• Visual Studio Tools for Office Outlook 2007 Add-in woes

  I have been developing/maintaining an Outlook plugin for over a year. It works fine with Outlook 2003, as well as Outlook XP. Unfortunately, during my testing with the Outlook 2007 Beta 2 version, I've run into some problems. It seems like enabling my add-in causes Outlook to throw an exception when it exits. I am using a debugger and Application Verifier to try to solve it, and this is what I've come up with: When the add-in is enabled, I receive the following error from Application Verifier on exit: ======================================= VERIFIER STOP 00000202 : pid 0xC38: Freeing heap block containing an active critical section. 0B65AB98 : Critical section address. 00000000 : Critical section initialization stack trace. 0B658AE0 ...Show All

• Windows Forms Catching keypressed

  I have a windows Form (in a mobile device) with a button and some other controls. I want that whenever a user press the ENTER key, the button handler method is launched. I added a KeyPress event to the Form, but this is used only if the Form has the focus. If the focus is in a textBox, the keyPress event is not used! AFAIK CF doesn't support AcceptButton. You can also set your form's KeyPreview property to True and KeyPress event should be raised regardless of the focused control. Andrej ...Show All

• Silverlight (formerly WPF/E) Video features in WPF/E

  I'm not that familiar with WMV but is it possible to have: Cuepoints e.g. events dispatched from a video and Alpha channel support e.g. transparent backgrounds in video. Or if WMV doesn't support this, are there plans to support this or introduce a new format etc Additionally, with the curent Windows Media browser plug-in you can have full screen video (I think), how would WPF/E change this e.g. will WPF/E have a fullscreen option as well Thanks We are investigating cue points and alpha channel support for inclusion in a future CTP or version of WPF/E. We are currently integrating support for full screen playback and that should be ready in a CTP sometime in Q107. Joe ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Distributed Transaction problem

  Hi, I'm having problems getting transactions to work correctly in a state machine workflow. Within the TransactionScope activity I have a Code activity that does a couple of database writes, another Code activity that sends out a notification email, and a SetState activity, which I want to be executed only if the rest of the code executes correctly. The WF runtime and DB are hosted on different servers. After fixing a "The partner transaction manager has disabled its support for remote/network transactions" error by enabling the MSDTC stuff on both machines, I'm now getting a new error: "The transaction has already been implicitly or explicitly committed or aborted (Exception from HRESULT: 0x8004D00E)" A ...Show All

• Windows Forms Setting size of Picture in PictureBox

  I have created a form which has a picturebox on it. I also have it so that the user can choose a gif or jpg to put into the picture box from their computer. But while running this code i noticed that the picturebox shows the picture in its original size and therefore you only get to see the top left hand corner of the picture. I was wondering whether anyone knows anyway in which i would be able to get the picture to be shown smaller than the original size Thanks alot in advance Satal yes there is. If you wish to resize the image to the same size as the picturebox, try this: Bitmap theBitmapImage = new Bitmap("FileName.jpg", this.thePicturebox.Width, this.thePictureBox.Height); this ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Create macro for editing a projects code analysis settings

  Hi everyone, I am working in a solution which contains numerous projects all of which need to adhere to the same code analysis settings. Instead of having to manually change the settings in each project which is obviously very time consuming, I would like to create a macro which when run, would get the selected project and update the code analysis settings which would be pre-defined inside the macro. This way all I need to manage is the macro functionality instead of each project individually, then when a setting needs to be changed I can update the macro then run it against each project. I have tried to record a macro which does this but it doesnt seem to be able to record the actual setting changes. It records the fact that I h ...Show All

• Visual C++ Some DLLs load, others won't

  Hello. I've been trying to display dialog boxes from two different DLLs. AfxLoadLibrary() loads the first DLL fine; with the other DLL, I get an error that says the DLL cannot be found. The thing is that I know the paths to both DLLs are correct, because they're both in the same place. Also, a resource-hack program I have loads both DLLs fine. Any ideas Here's my code, sans all the error-checking: p.MsoNormal, li.MsoNormal, div.MsoNormal {margin:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt;font-size:12.0pt;font-family:'Times New Roman';} h1 {margin-top:12.0pt;margin-right:0in;margin-bottom:3.0pt;margin-left:0in;page-break-after:avoid;font-size:16.0pt;font-family:Arial;} p.ListingHead, li.ListingHead, div.ListingHead {margin:0in;margin-bo ...Show All
