• BryanMiller 2005 app slower than 2003

  I started porting over an app built in 2003 to 2005 and I've noticed that at least one part of it is slower to perform. I have a single line combobox capturing textchanged event to run a routine. The routine refilters a dataview and binds it to a datagrid. The two have the exact same code except where 2005 differs slightly from 2003 in setting the databinding and I used a gridview rather than a grid. It seems the 2005 model takes a second or ...Show All

• Voln Using virtual function in VB.NET from C++ DLL

  Hi, I'm running into a problem when trying to use class interfaces from this library called Audiere. The library was written in C++ as virtual functions that were COM compatible.

• carlpicanco BUG: debugger losing variable values

  over the weekend I had occasion to write a line of code that added two random byte values.  I made the mistake of not contemplating the case where the resulting sum produced a result that was too large for the underlying data type to hold -- this turned out to be a nightmare to debug because VS 2005 beta 2 would lose the values of the variables involved when the exception was thrown. here is a sketch of the code that caused that issue: at t ...Show All
