• JohnDale Breakpoints not working

  I'm running the February CTP on WinXP SP2 and Visual Studio Pro. I'm running my development environment inside of a Virtual PC VM.

Breakpoints set on the code beside code such as a CodeActivity handler work. I've looked at the other posts on the foru ...Show All

  Over the past couple days I have uninstalled the January CTP and reinstalled the February CTP of the runtime, SDK, "Orcas" tools, and Expression Interative Designer (March CTP). Subsequently the designers (Cider, EID) report errors like "Type 'Application' could not be found. Are you missing an assembly reference ", and nothing will build.

• RJHarris0 Upgrade Window Mobile 2003 to 2005?

  How can I upgrade my POCKET PC Window Mobile 2003 to the 2005 version. I currently have the Dell Axim x30.

• Shady9399 Compact Framework

  Well, I think I already know the answer to this question, but I'm going to ask anyway: Are there any plans now or in the future to support workflow on the Compact Framework As I'm sure the team is already aware, CF support would be highly valuable for process automation in refineries, pharmaceuticals, power generation and several other vertical markets. WF on handheld/compact devices would be very ...Show All

• Drew Marsh State Machine Dependency Properties

  I have a state machine setup with a custom activity that executes a ruleset. The ruleset is a property of the activity. I'm trying to change the ruleset at runtime. When I change the property the value only changes for the next instance of the state machine. The current instance continues without seeing the updated value.
