• Visual Studio Team System Storing Areas, Iterations, Query parameters in Config file

  We have custom reports which uses Areas, Iteration paths, Query parameters, Report parameters. The problem is that whenever we add/modify areas and iteration paths we need to manually change the reports query to reflect the change. Is there a way to store all these values in a separate config file or any whereelse and avoid hardcoding these values in the query Thanks, Srikanth Hi Srikanth, In the out of the box reports we ship, for the report parameters for Area and Iteration, we use queries return the areas and iterations in that particular team project. Can you do something similar Can you describe why you need to hardcode the areas and iteration thanks, Mauli ...Show All

• Windows Live Developer Forums OGC WMS/WFS connection in Virtual Earth

  Hello all, MSN VE is looking fantastic and getting better. Indeed a good option against google earth. But I could easily make some php scripts that could connect WMS to Google and project data on the fly to GE and this was also possible with MySql+GE connections. But did anybody already do an experiment to connect a WMS to MSN Virtual Earth I would be very much delighted to have some codes if possible. Shuman Kibria Please contact kibria14829@itc.nl Hi, Thanks for the reply. Do you have some codes available I would like to connect my UMN mapserver to MSN VE 3d. I have looked a lot on Internet and only could find information on Tile Server. I have no idea of how to do this with a WMS. ...Show All

• Windows Live Developer Forums Status property on AdCenterCampaign

  Hello, When are we going to get the status property on the AdCenterCampaign object I can pause and resume a campaign using the UI. It's very anoying that we can't see this using the API and that we cant pause/resume a campaign. Simulating campaign pausing, by pausing the orders is an ugly hack, when you guys could probably implement campaign pausing/resuming in 15 minutes on your side. Best regards, Peer Jakobsen I hope so - but I don't want to commit... :) We have it on the list, but obviously we have some higher-priority items as well. ...Show All

• SQL Server Open Source DB Structures

  I'm wondering if anyone knows of a good site to find open source database structures (such as ERD's, scripts, or something of that nature) I think I have a pretty good handle on database design, but it would be nice to have a resource like that so that I can compare the design of my DB to DB's that people (smarter and more experienced than me) have created for similar purposes. What I'm thinking of is a site like Open Source Web Design (www.oswd.org) for Databases. Anyone know of anything You can check out http://www.databaseanswers.org/data_models/ for a bunch of sample schema. It's a place to start. Mike ...Show All

• Visual C++ _USE_RTM_VERSION has no effect on DLLs

  I found out that it's possible to run applications built by VS2005 SP1 on PC which has installed the run time libraries (MFC80 and C run time lib) from VS 2005 not SP1. You have just to define the symbol _USE_RTM_VERSION on the C++ preprocessor inside your project. It works fine with exe file but it has no effect on DLLs . Infact, if my exe use a DLL (MFC based) built with VS2005 SP1 it doesn't start because the DLL cannot find the rigth run time libraries even if I defined _USE_RTM_VERSION on the DLL preprocessor. The only way to make things work is to rebuild everything with VS 2005 SP1 without _USE_RTM_VERSION and install the new run time libraries running the vcredist_x86 package. I found out that the problem apperas if the ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Depth problems with CustomVertex

  Hello, I am developing a 3d engine using Visual Basic, but I am encountering some problems. - I store a terrain made from a heightmap in a customvertex (Am I even allowed to do that ). The problem is, when I draw it and rotate the camera around, I notice the landscape isn't depth-buffered (Polygons in the back actually appear in the front) (edit: I do have AutoDepthStencil turned on and my ZnearPlane = 0) - I have no idea how to load/draw an animated model. Could someone help me with these Thanks in advance, Michel ..as for the animated model, if you are to create a serious engine, you should look for information about skeletal animation 'n stuff. It's too large theme to discus ...Show All

• SQL Server file system task - Problem

  I am using file system task for deletion of text file from a specified folder. but i want that one text file with name ="ssis.txt" and "ssrs.txt "should not get delete. Is there any option or any expression that we can set and avoide the deletion of ssis.txt and ssrs.txt and still delete all the remaining all text file from a folder. Please suggest any method or expression by example. Sounds like a job for a ForEach loop containing the FileSystem operation, and some task (.Net script ) that compares the file name for the specific iteration of the ForEach loop with the protected tables list, and determines whether to call to File Delete ...Show All

• Windows Forms [GDI+] Bitmap scaling - NearestNeighbor interpolation bug?

  Hi, Sorry if I have choosen wrong place for this thread but i think that it is rather connected with WF programming. I am actually making a tool which needs high precision while operating on bitmap (let say it is something like icon creator.). That's why I am using high zoom and pixel-grid. I have encountered a problem (bug maybe ) while using nearest neighbor interpolation. If my zoom factor is set to 8, each pixel is magnified 8 times except the "edges" of bitmap. They are resized only for only a half. And because of that the whole bitmap move slightly, and pixels are about of their grid bounds. To visualize this problem I attach screen: http://img214.imageshack.us/img214/5073/bugdk7.jpg I intentionaly draw the bitmap sta ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System VSTE for Database Professional for MSDN Universal subscribers?

  Do I understand properly that people with MSDN Universal (VS Team System for Developers edition) are not entitled to use VSTE for Database Professional as part of their MSDN Licence I am sure a lot of us do both Database work and C# (or VB.Net) development... Isn't this licencing a bit mean PS: I know I could get the 180 days trial of VS Team Suite... but why buying MSDN Universal then Not quite, VSTS For DB Professionals is a seperate SKU just like Team Developer and Team Test etc. However you do gain the full benefit of VSTS For DB Professionals when used with Team Suite. mairead PM Team Data ...Show All
