• Windows Forms Displaying data thru grid

  I'm migrating an application VB6 to VB.NET. No its not a question about upgrade. In VB6, a third party grid was used to display data. I'm trying to use datagrid to display data. But to use Datagrid, I need to extract data from a Datatable. Is there any other possible way to add data to a Datagrid As I wont be able to add a new table. I dont think you can do this in .NET 1.1 (VS2003) but in .NET 2.0, you can do the above that I had stated plus direct additions/modifications to the datagridview: dim myValues() as Object = { "hello", "1" } Me .theDataGridView.Column.Add("ColumnName", "HeaderName") Me .theDataGridView.Rows.Add(myValues) this ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Vertex Shaders without Pixel Shaders

  Sadly, XNA Beta 2 does not let you use vertex shaders without pixel shaders... If you are targetting GF2, GF4MX or Radeon 7xxx old hardware, here is a workaround: bool [ ] verifiedCanDraw ; fi = device.GetType ( ).GetField ( "_verifiedCanDraw" , BindingFlags.NonPublic | BindingFlags.Instance ); verifiedCanDraw = ( bool [ ] ) ( ( fi.GetValue ( device ) ) ); for ( int i = 0 ; i < verifiedCanDraw.Length ; i++ ) { verifiedCanDraw [ i ] = true; } Will XNA users get a fix for this Even if we removed checking for pixel shaders being set, XNA would not work correctly on cards without pixel shaders. All of our graphics API is based around shaders. Our Sprite ...Show All

• .NET Development Custom (inherited) ConfigurationSection saved using Configuration.Save() Problem! Please Help!

  I have taken a common Generic ConfigurationSection that was posted on some public forums a while back and modified it to be a fully generic ConfigurationSection for use on any generic object type. The purpose is to be able to write a Configuration Object that uses Xml Serialization attributes for how to write the XML configuration section. Well, everything works excellent, however, there is a problem. ObjectConfigurationSection and ConfigurationObject classes are defined in a shared assembly that is registered in the GAC and re-used. This assembly has a high likelihood of being upgraded over time, but I DO NOT want to have to upgrade the product. Since GAC assembly references in the <configSections><section> type attribute ...Show All

• SQL Server How to access the data from a custom data mining plugin ?

  I'm stucked in a problem and I thought if you would be so kind as to helping me to resolve it. I'm implementing a clustering algorithm plugin for text mining. I've already read the tutorials and sample codes provided by the MSDN Library. Well... My problem is: I can't go through the data when the Predict method is called.

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Shader from SDK throwing Exception?

  Hi, I'm having problems getting a shader (glow.fx) from the DirectX SDK to work within XNA. The following error is being thrown by DrawIndexPrimitives: An unhandled exception of type 'System.InvalidOperationException' occurred in Microsoft.Xna.Framework.dll Additional information: Both a valid vertex shader and pixel shader (or valid effect) must be set on the device before draw operations may be performed. I stripped out all the excess code and resorted to a sample from the XNA documentation (Effects I think it was) and replaced all the expected fields, so the initialisation looks like this: effect = content.Load< Effect >( "Glow" ); effect.Parameters[ "View" ].SetValue( view ); effect. ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista VX3000 Compatibility issue with Vista build 5728

  I saw a thread earlier about VX3000 driver not being compatible with RC1 (build 5600), but the guy mentioned that it was fixed later in a different build. I have build 5728 and it still won't install (harddrive space too small error), so I was wondering which version is it exactly that this issue was fixed Hello ghos401, I have been looking into this issue and it appears to have been bugged and we are working with the vendor to finish up the code fixes. I do not see a specific build where this was checked-in so it looks like we are still working on it. This would explain why you didn't get this working in 5728. Thanks, Louis Shanks ...Show All
