• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Creating multiple Contents from a single NodeContent?

  So, after importing a .X file with animation, I have this AnimationContentCollection on some of the NodeContent hierarchy. I can specify my ModelProcessor override to actually find this animation. But then what The output data of the model processor is a MeshContent, which doesn't have an Animation property. I would need to either be able to add a new, second output type from the processor, or attach the animation to the MeshContent. There is the singular "Tag" property, but what if I want to add more than one kind of metadata to the mesh Does the Tag get serialized appropriately Fear not, more samples around this area are on their way just as soon as we get them written :-) That's great. I think it might be even b ...Show All

• Visual Studio How to determine if a project is built

  Hi there, Does anyone know how to determine if a given "EnvDTE.Project" has been successfully built What about a particular "EnvDTE.ProjectItem" Thanks. Hi Larry, I got the following answer from one of our extensibility developers: " We do not provide the ability to query if a specific project or project item has been built, only if all projects built successfully and the number of errors and warnings. You can try using the automation model to build one specific project, then check the SolutionBuild.LastBuildInfo property to check the number of projects that built correctly. You could also try walking the error list after building, and checking the items to see if there were any errors, and the file and ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Moving window

  Hi, I'm working on some exercises in a book, one of them is this one: "Create a Windows Application project with a single form that has two buttons on it. One button, when clicked, should move the form to the left by two pixels. The other should move the form to the right by two pixels. Hint: Use the X and Y subproperties of the Location property." I've tried this: private void btnMoveWindowRight_Click( object sender, EventArgs e) { this .Location.X = this .Location.X + 2; } but it doesn't work, contrary to this, which does work: private void btnEnlargeWindow_Click( object sender, EventArgs e) { this .Width = this .Width + 20; this .Height = this .Height + 20; } Wha ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions compile button ?

  visual Edition express, I cant find the compile button please somebody help. Mike Danes wrote: It should be the last item in the Build menu. The puzzle for users of the Visual C++ 2005 Express Edition IDE who are accustomed to older versions of VC++ and even other-people's older versions of IDEs, is that the Build | Compile menu item is present only when a compilable source file is selected in the project. So, if there is no Build | Compile selection in the IDE, make sure you have a project open and the source program that you want to compile is selected. Since compiling doesn't do much, it may be easier to always use Build | Build Solution (F7) . This seems to always do the right t ...Show All

• Smart Device Development ActiveX Control with connection points not working in VS2005 with Windows CE 5.0

  Hello, I've created an ATL Smart Device project, and added one ATL Simple Object (CKeyReceiver) with Connection Point support. I've added one method to the event interface (ButtonPushed) and i've added the connection point to my CKeyReceiver class. It autogenerates a proxy and fills in the connection point code just fine. I've also modified my CKeyReceiver class so that it derives from IProvideClassInfo2. The object loads fine on an HTML page, but the connection point does not work. If i step through the autogenerated code that fires the event, it never fires it because m_vec is 0. So i stepped through a lot of the ATL code and it seems that IConnectionPointImpl::Advise is getting called but is not returning succesfully. It makes an attemp ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions vb 2005 or vc# 2005??

  I have the option of wither taking visual basic.net 2005 or visual c# 2005 in a college class (3 credits, 4 months long)..What should i take, i know how each looks and feels, however, i need some advice from the pros..I just want to make sure that whatever i pick up, it going to be a good choice...also, i hear a lot of neg remarks about vb6, i havent heard to much about vs 2005.. Thanks hi, vb and C# both of them target the same library FCL(framework class library) the only difference between them is the program syntax for example c# use if(Condition == true) { //do come code here } in vb you write it like if Condition = true then //do come code here end if but as Ahmed said C# is the .net fram ...Show All

• .NET Development need books and url's for C# network programming

  Can anyone provide a book recomendation (thats updated for .Net 2.0) that covers network programming with C#. Any url's would be great too. thanks in advance Sybex C# Network Programming is a great book for understanding C# Network Programming. The version i have is for .Net 1.X but 90 % of things are similar except there are few classes added in the newer version and I also hope that Sybex would have released the new version of the great book for .Net 2.0. Second book is from Microsoft I dont remember the name coz I did not read it well but that book is also good. You can try Amazon search to find book with string like C# Network Programming. .Net Network Programming etc. I hope you'll find something well. See these: ...Show All

• Visual C++ CrtIsValidHeapPointer assertions

  My solution consists of two projects: 1. A managed windows form GUI 2. C++ (really C code just wrapped in a namespace) I compile project 2 as a static lib, and add it as a dependency to project 1. The problem occurs with a struct in project 2: struct Loc { std::string Title; float Param1; float Param2; } which is used for a global variable: static Loc Locations[MaxNum + 1] When the application starts up, the debug assertion "CrtIsValidHeapPointer" fails. Unwinding the stack stops at the line of code where Loc is defined. The stack also shows the struct's "dynamic initializer" is being called. If I remove the std::string parameter, the code runs fine.

• Audio and Video Development Windows Portable Devices SDK?

  Where can we find the Windows Portable Device SDK (WPD SDK) Is it packaged separately from the Vista Windows Driver Kit The Vista Windows SDK Some Windows Media SDK We have found lots of docs on the api online and in the Vista Windows Driver Kit for RC1. However, the docs refer to a WPD SDK and we can't seem to find that. In particular we are puzzled by where the redist files would be for the PortableDeviceApi.dll and its buddies that end up in windows\system32. Are these only bundled with a download and install of Windows Media Player 11 Beta 2 so far From what we've read WPD is supported on Win XP SP2 with WMP 10 - but how In case you never found ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) .Net Remoting two times faster than WCF!

  In our healthcare enterprise multitier application the .Net Remoting transports are two times faster then WCF(we have plugable client/server transports): Measuring results for the same couple of client server requests: -> Tcp Remoting: 3.4 seconds -> Http Remoting (IIS-Hosted): 3.5 seconds -> Tcp WCF: 6.5 seconds -> Http WCF (IIS-Hosted): 7.3 seconds -> Http WCF (IIS-Hosted) with MTOM: 10.3 seconds Security: We just use authentication by NTLM Serialization: We use the NetDataContractSerializer, and not the DataContractSerializer (RPC style) Can WCF be tuned to be as fast as remoting The use of MTOM which replaces text by binary data makes the communication slower.

• SQL Server Reference dimensions are creating too many joins

  I have orders fact; customer, location and age dimensions. I am using age and location as reference dimensions through customer dimension. If I don't use reference dimension cube processing SQL would be like following select * from factOrders If I use reference dimensions SQL would be like following select * from factOrders, dimCustomer as customer1, dimCustomer as customer2 where factOrders.customerid = customer1.customerid and factorders.customerid = customer2.customerid If I have 6 reference dimensions through customer there will be 6 joins.
