• Smart Device Development time function

  Hi, I'm new to C++ and I am writing a project in it that I want to build on both Windows CE and VxWorks, so I am compiling the project in both MS Visual Studio and Wind River Workbench. There are a number of places in the app where I want to get the current date and time (number of seconds since 1/1/1970) but I can't figure out how to make it work! From what I can tell, time(time_t * timer) is the way to go, but while this compiles fine for VxWorks, when I compile it for Windows I get a strange linker error which says that there are unresolved externals in the function that contains the call to time(). Help! (Thanks in advance!) Rachel The preprocessor plays games with time_t and time(). They ge ...Show All

• Smart Device Development Timer invoke between threads

  Hi, In my previous thread in this forum I asked how to reach objects between different threads. http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx PostID=638251&SiteID=1 Now I wonder how to run different timers in the same program, since they have no invoke() method. My first timer is polling different objects. On incoming answers I want to start a new timer for execution of the request a certain time. How do I do Pseudocode of how it is now, but does not work, is: timer1.Enabled = true; timer2.Enabled = false; private void timer1_Tick(object sender, EventArgs e) { if 1 poll1() if 2 poll2() } public void serialPort_DataReceived(object sender, SerialDataReceivedEventArgs e) { timer2.Enabled = True; if 1 execute1(); if 2 execute2(); } ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Branching bound projects and solutions does not work

  Hello, While testing branching capabilities in TFS, I come to realize that for bound projects and solutions, branching does not work as expected.

• Visual FoxPro Emailing newly converted reports.

  Hi; I have converted some older Foxpro reports to VFP9. Everything looks great, but: Before the conversion I could very easily save the report to file and then email it. After the conversion, obviously, I can't do that anymore. I have tried the ASCII option but it is not very good with spacing and columns don't line up etc. What is the best way to solve this issue Do I need to create a pdf/rtf/tif etc or is there a built in VFP feature that can help me Thank you all.

• SQL Server Prolonged execution for table UPDATE statement - not sure it finishes

  I am cleaning up a large database table that has Date keys instead of real DateTimes. To do this, I am running the following query... UPDATE MQIC.DBO.OBSERVATION_F SET MQIC.DBO.OBSERVATION_F.OBS_DATE = MQIC.DBO.DATE_D.ACTUAL_DATE FROM MQIC.DBO.OBSERVATION_F INNER JOIN MQIC.DBO.DATE_D ON MQIC.DBO.OBSERVATION_F.DATE_KEY = MQIC.DBO.DATE_D.DATE_KEY where Actual_Date is what is being stored, and the Date_Key is to be dropped.

• SQL Server Slow Cube Performance in Excel

  Hi all, I have an Analysis Services 2005 cube that I am linking to in Excel 2003 via a pivot table. The cube is based on a single fact table with around 6 million rows and 7 measures. I have 5 dimensions, none of which have more than around 200 rows. I have set up aggregation and am using MOLAP. My problem is that querying the cube in Excel takes around one minute, whilst performing the same query in the cube browser in BI studio is instant. I have captured the MDX for each of these in Profiler. The scripts are below.

• Visual C++ How to open solution via project

  Hi I have a little problem. I create VS solution and then add to it already existing VC project. Then I close VS , and when I open project file (via double click) it's created a new solution file for that project, i. e. it doesn't open solution in which it added.But when I add new project to solution everything is ok. So I want to understand how project file "find" its solution. Thanks Once the solution is created, a file with an extension .SLN will have been created on your hard drive somewhere, usually in the same folder as the project file (.VCPROJ), or at least close to it. So, use the Start-Search for files and folders, find the .SLN file and open that.  From now on, d ...Show All

I use the following code: HttpWebRequest wr1 = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create(URL); HttpWebResponse ws1 = (HttpWebResponse)wr1.GetResponse(); and XmlDocument xDoc = new XmlDocument(); xDoc.load(xmlURL); Both of the above codes work well with no problem as long as GPRS is connected before these codes run (i connect GPRS manually before running the code). However, when the GPRS is not connected, i always get a GPRS connection error when the application tried to initiate the GPRS connection. The GPRS somehow cannot connect to the server.
