• Visual C++ warning C4996: 'foo' was declared deprecated

  It appears that several standard C and C++ functions have been 'deprecated' in this version of compiler. This is a major annoyance since neither C nor C++ standards seem to mention this.  Naturally, it is possible to disable unwanted warnings, however doing this manually for every project is a pain in the arse. Is there a compatibility mode Thanks, - NK This is a request for future versions of c and c++ compilers. Because these languages defined by ANSI/ISO standards, the only organizations that can declare c/c++ library functions to be deprecated are ANSI and ISO. I'm requesting that Microsoft pleas ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Custom Activity - Probelm with EventSink Activity

  Hello, i tried to model a custom activity. This activity does contain of a) InvokeMethod Activity b) EventSink Activity out of the activity galery delivered. I also implemented a Service which I added to the workflow engine in order to connect the method invokation and the event sink. Then I build up a sequntial wf out of my custom activity. The method invoke activity within my custom activity works properly, but when my async. operation is finished and I want to raise the event to trigger the eventsink activity the event within the added service was null. The same scenario works fine when i model this directly within a sequential wf. Regar ...Show All

• Visual Basic VBUpgrade utility problem

• Visual Studio Team System Problems with Setup

  OK, I know the score, read the documentation at least twice before installing and I did. I was still caught out and it cost me a lot of time. Here's the problem. Doing an installation on one of my servers using separate data and application servers. Everything is done inside Virtual Server as with previous versions and I expected no problems. The data layer went in exactly as described and I ticked off each paragraph as I completed it. The application layer was going well until it started throwing a 7 line error message. It looked like a permissions problem so I checked that the tfssetup and tfsservice accounts were not only members of the l ...Show All

• Visual Basic How to make slideshow transition with Picturebox

  You've seen those fancy wipes, fades, cut and swirls in slideshows... now, how do you do it with the Picturebox It's incredible how many people mistake the picturebox control for a paint program, or for Powerpoint. You can't.  A picture box is there so you can show a picture without writing the two lines of code required.  If you want to do more, you'll need a lot more than those two lines, you'll need to write these sort of transitions for yourself.   ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Getting Started sample not getting service.exe

  Hi, Well, I have been trying to get this first sample "Getting Started" going for a very very long time, and so far, I've been pulling my hair out just trying to figure out what is going on. My question is, when i compile the "Getting Started sample" which is from WIndows SDK, it compiles fine, and I find client.exe but I can not find service.exe anywhere. Neither under Getting Started/service/bin folder which produces service.dll file and service.pdb nor under wwwroot/servicemodelsamples/bin directory. I got the console based sample going but I really want this IIS based samples to work as well. Any help woul ...Show All

• Visual Studio Tools for Office Outlook 2003 Resets Plugins

  There are two computers each with Office 2003 SP2 that resets the plugin list when the user logs off. It doesn't just uncheck the plugin, it removes it from the list. It is a plugin for a DYMO labelwriter. The plugin is also installed in Word 2003, but it does not reset like Outlook. If there is no quick fix to this problem is there a script or a form of automation that will install the plugin on start-up Thank You, Sean Sean, Were you able to find a solution for these plug-ins thanks, scott ...Show All

• .NET Development How to implement transactions using tableadapters?

  The old dataadapter had a transaction object which you could assign to a .NET SQLtransaction. This made transaction handling very simple. What is the equivalent (or similar) method for handling transactions using tableadapters I'm using the table adapters generated by the data designer. dataadapter has no transaction property which can be assigned to a sqltransaction. You could use System.Transactions.TransactionScope to simplify the transaction handling if you have only one conneciton opened. ...Show All
