• SQL Server sql server lockup after strange error in log, help please.

  Can anyone help me solve why my server is locking up. We're running sql server 2005 ent on a 2 cpu dual core server. With 3gig. Once each the last couple weeks, the machine has hung and the only thing I can find that's suspicious is on the sql server log.  It's below.  After the excerpt is about 50 more different memory errors.  As far as I know there's no ssl configured for log in, it mostly uses private lan cards for security between it and the web/application server. 05/31/2006 14:39:48,spid2s,Unknown,MEMORYCLERK_SQLQUERYEXEC (Total) <nl/> VM Reserved = 0 KB <nl/> VM Committed = 0 KB <nl/> AWE Allocated = 0 KB <nl/> SM Reserved = 0 KB <nl/> SM Committe ...Show All

• Visual Basic Vista Icons

  I have had windows vista beta 2 icons for a while now and I would like to use the in my applications, I never sell them but for personal use, it would be nice to see something that did not look like it came from Windows .000000000001 ( A version of Microsoft Windows I just made up to exaggerate the point that they look very old.) I am assuming that you're trying to load the icons up in Visual studio and it is throwing an exception saying "Invalid Parameter used" when you import. Chances are they are in a format that is either not supported by Visual Studio .NET or perhaps not even by .NET (<=2.x) ...Show All

• Visual Basic How can I get a String() array allocated by an unmanaged DLL into VB.Net?

  Folks; Under VB6, I called a (flat) third-party DLL with an un-allocated array of strings. The DLL then allocates the array, and loads each entry in the array with a string. The function prototype for this DLL call is: ----- Declare Function GetSampleRateSettings Lib "Vlink.dll" (ByRef Settings() As String) As Long ----- In this DLL, the 'Settings()' array is allocated, and each of the entries in the array is filled with information. When the DLL function completes, the caller then Ubounds() the array, and picks the array apart for the strings it contains. Works great. In VB6 code, the function is used thusly, ----- Dim tmpStringArray() as String If (GetSampleRateSettings(tmpStringArray()) = AP ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Get Latest Version changes a file's 'Date Modified' and 'Date Created' attributes

  Hi, We are currently using Team Foundation Server as our source control solution for a pilot project. When a user right clicks on a file in 'Source Control Browser' in Visual Studio 2005 and selects 'Get Latest Version,' he/she gets the file without any problem. However, the 'Date Modified' and 'Date Created' attributes of the local file are set to the time he/she got the file from the source control. It is important for us that we get the files with the exact date attributes that they were checked in with. Use-case senario: -User A modifies a file on June 20th and checks it in. -User B gets the latest version of the file on June 21th. -The file on B's machine states that the file was last modified on June 21th and thus f ...Show All

• Visual C# Cost for Moving controls from one form to another

  My project used some third party code for docking control. I need to close all the opened documents when I changed the document style. For me, it is very expensive to do close->open. I wonder if I can move all the control (mainly an OpenGL rendered control) from the form to a new created form with the right style. I want to know if there is a better way. Thanks. I hope I understand what you are talking. You are talking about moving one control to the other form in design mode , right May be you can consider writing macro in the visual studio environment to help you easy your task. Or you can try some other 3rd party productivity tools like MZTools. ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Can Biztalk 2006 use Wsdl generated from a WCF service

  I have a WCF service that will be consumed by a process in BizTalk 2006. How can I generate a Wisdl that will be easy for the BT team to use Will the default Wsdl work or is there another approach to accomplish the same. Thanks!! Disclaimer: I am far from being a BTS expert. In general when you are able to use just standard 'Web Sercives' features (i.e. plain XSD, WSDL, HTTP, and no WS-* stuff or even alternative transports) and can use basicHttpBinding in one of your WCF service's endpoints, then BTS should fairly easy be able to consume this WSDL and talk to your service.

• Visual Basic Array starting at 1

  I'm redim a array to start 1 and to go to 600, does anyone know how i tryed using the "to", but never worked ReDim Preserve Array(1 to 600) So the premise of the article is correct - just additional syntax has been added to make VB6 feel more comfortable. Either way non-zero based arrays is not support in .NET 1.0, 1.1 or 2.0 and I havent seen anything to indicate that its about to make a reappearance in any of the current .NET development - so basically you cant create non zero based arrays - but now have a choice of syntax (although the older VB 0 to x is supported - the lower bound has to be 0 ) so you are simply creating unnecessary additional verbosity in an already verbose la ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Thanks

  I wanted to say thanks to all the people on this forum for helping with solutions to problems, particularly the Microsoft guys for creating such a great platform and being prepared to participate with the developers. I started to experiment with WPF in January 2006 and had a 'vision' for a new product while recovering from a back operation in June 2007. The result is at http:/ www.glomey.com and is a clickonce deployed app written in Visual Basic using WPF and WCF. There are still some rough edges, and probably some bugs. Any feedback would be appreciated. Hope you find it interesting. There is a long way to go to fulfill the vision but at least it is a start. Thanks again, John From ...Show All

• Visual C++ How to convert "string" into "byte array" and vice versa?

  Hi all, I think most of you probably know the two .NET framework functions, namely Encoding.GetBytes( string ) and Encoding.GetString( byte[]), to convert string into byte array and vice versa. Now, I want to do the same thing in pure(unmanaged) C++. I searched the Internet but could not find any satisfactory solutions. I am really in need of help! Is there anyone to explain how I can implement these functions by not using .NET library Thanks a lot... What kind of string do you have Note, strings are nothing but series of characters. So, they can be asily interpreted as arrays. In case of UNICODE strings, each character occupies 2 bytes and in case of ANSI strings, 1 byte. so, as long as ...Show All
