• Visual Studio Cross project code generation

  Hi, I'm very new to actually working with DSL and software factories, so the questions can seem a bit dumb. Here it goes: If I create a new DSL and an acommpanying custom tool, I can generate code by walking over the diagram. Is there a way that the generated code can be split accross existing projects in a Visual Studio 2005 solution Would referencing artefacts that belong to other projects in a diagram (e.g. a diagram in a data access layer project has a reference to a business component in another project) be a good and allowable practice That's it for now Any help or feedback is highly appreciated. Regards, W. Jansoone The things you're mentioning are possible, although not 'out of the box ...Show All

• SQL Server Top-Variable-Case

  Hi, I have something like the following in a stored procedure. SELECT DISTINCT top @rowCount a,b,c FROM tblA ORDER BY c DESC The @rowcount value is passed in by the user to the SP. It can be 0 or >0. Do I need to write two queries - one using the TOP keyword as above and another with no TOP as follows: IF @rowcount>0 SELECT DISTINCT top @rowCount a,b,c FROM tblA ORDER BY c DESC ELSE SELECT DISTINCT a,b,c FROM tblA ORDER BY c DESC Or...is there some other construct (such as CASE - which I tried but couldn't get to work) that can handle this condition-check from within the query Thanks much. I'd rather not use SET Rowcount because this SELECT is actually part of an IN ...Show All

• Audio and Video Development wmp app ... filtering song menu question

  Hi All, I'm developing a media player using WMP activex control. The idea here is to integrate the media library into an ipod-style menu filtering system, within this .NET GUI app i'm building. So, the user would see a large list box with a list of songs and be able to filter it in a hierarchy. example: audio -> playlists -> (list all playlists here) -> (songs in the specific playlist here) audio -> artists -> (list all artists here) -> (all songs specific to that artist here) etc. Any ideas on how to save the state of the previous list So, the user can go back to from all songs in a specific playlist, back to the list of playlists available. I'm thinking the best way to do this is using a stack method ... but if there ar ...Show All

• Visual Basic System.InvalidOperationException when creating a form. How do I debug the form.show() method?

  An unhandled exception of type 'System.InvalidOperationException' occurred in Program1.exe Additional information: An error occurred creating the form. See Exception.InnerException for details. The error is: Control array element 2 doesn't exist. I put a breakpoint on the form.show() method, but I still get this error. I am assuming it's related to some control on the form, but there are no details. I'd like to trace or debug the form.show process if possible to determine which of the 100+ controls is causing this error. This application is being converted from VB6 to VB.net and it works fine of course in VB6. How can I trace into the form.show routine provided by the System.Windows.Forms framework to find out which control i ...Show All

• Smart Device Development Emulator mouse driver problem

  Hi All, I have been able to develop an OS image using Plaform Builder and I am able to deploy the application on the ARMV4i emulator. However, when then application loads I cannot seem to use the mouse on the emulator.

• .NET Development How to accessSQL server 2005 through internet ?

  How can I access my Microsoft SQL Server 2005 through internet For example, I set up a Microsoft SQL Server in one of computers of my company, and every computer in my company has its own IP .They are in the same workgroup. Now, there is no problem with database access with another computer in my company. Can anyone tell my how to access it through a computer out of my company (using DNS) Thanks It is not possible in general and it is not advisable.

Possible, but I doubt any sensible network adminitrator would allow you a direct connection to a sql server machine ...Show All
