• Visual C++ ifstream _MyState = 2 during >> operations for all ints and bools

  We just upgraded to VS 8.0, and software that works for VS6.0, 7.0, QNX, vxWorks, and Linux does not work correctly in VS 8.0 for some reason. Basically, we are parsing a stream from a file (standard stuff) into a structure. I have been using the debugger to track down the issue, and found that the _MyState flag gets set to a 2 for certain conditions, and then reading of the stream stops, and all future operations don't return any data. Our data: 0,1.23,0,12.34,56,2 (then crlf) Code snippet: char lnSeparator; arFileStream >> rcSignal.meValueExternalSimEnabled //bool >> lnSeparator >> rcSignal.mnValueExternalSim //float >> lnSeparator >> rcSignal.meRawExternalSimEnabled //bool ...Show All

• Gadgets HTC files with gadgets?

  I have been reading about consuming web services with javascript and it seems every example uses an htc file to accomplish this. Does this work the same way with gadgets I tried searching the forum but no results for htc. If anyone has an example that does this I would really appreciate it! Thanks in advance! Ok, I figured it out.. I didn't realize that any private members could not be used with web services! By removing the get return sequence and just setting the public string values it works perfectly! ...Show All

• Visual C++ Text display problem with a CRichEditCtrl object

  Hi, I mounted a CRichEditCtrl editor object on the View frame of a MDI structure and used its member function SetWindowText to display a CAtlString string (m_logText, shown as in the following code segment) in it. The code works perfectly with the Debug build of the program, but won't work with the Release build. Please help figure out a solution. Thanks.

• SQL Server ODBC TCP/IP Dynamic Determine Port check box

  Hopefully a simple answer: *editted for clarity* Where does the "Dynamically determine port" check box come from when creating a ODBC connection using TCP/IP in the client configuration Only shows up in the control panel/adminstrative tools/Data Sources (ODBC) when it is installed. I have 3 computers here that have it (they are for development) but I am finding my users desktops do not have the box and so I am getting errors trying to connect from their desktops. I am using Excel and Microsoft Access 2000 to connect to the server using the ODBC connection.

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Fontsize relative to the window size

  Is it possible to set the Font size so it sizes up and down with the size of the window If I have a UserControl with a heading (16pt) and a body (12pt) is it possible to have them resize if the application is maximized on a 800x600 monitor and on a 1024x768 monitor. So the font sizes grow the bigger the window is. Or have I just missed a Property Like many things in WPF you can do this with data binding. You could bind the FontSize of the text to the ActualHeight of the window, and use a converter to apply the appropriate "scaling". As to whether this is a "built in" feature or not - do any other systems behave this way Unless I'm misunderstanding what you're trying to do it sound ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Difference between SQLMetal and DLinq Designer

  I have just gotten into using Dlinq and am not sure of the difference between SQLMetal and the Desinger...at first they seem to do the same thing...which looks like to create the class's for the tables. Correct Thanks Harold Technically speaking, they do the same thing. They generate entity classes to manage your database. But, there are few differences: 1) DLinq designer generates code different from the SQLMetal tool. Moreover, it contains at least a bug (see http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx PostID=443175&SiteID=1 ). 2) SQLMetal doesn't provide table selection, it will create entity classes for each database table found in the target DB. Dlinq allows you to select single tables. ...Show All
