• Visual Studio How to intercept click on icon decorator

  I have compartment shape with IconShape decorator on it and I want to provide some action with click on icon. Does anyone know how to do it Thanks, Alexey Hi, It's currently quite difficult to pick up clicks on the decorators - sorry! -- [June 06 -- no longer true, you can now pick up clicks on decorators. See further down in this thread. - Alan.] What you could do instead is to set up a context menu. The "How to" is quite long so I won't repeat it here, but look at section 4 of the Customization Guide, which you will find in    Program Files\Visual Studio 2005 SDK\20 ...Show All

• SQL Server 2005 Express table description

  In SQL Server 2000 Enterprise Manager you can enter a table description (it's actually an extended property). In SQL Server 2005 Express, right click the table > Properties > General page, the dialog has a Description section but no explicit description field. However 2005 DOES have an explicit Description field for columns within a table. Am I missing something, or do I have to enter the table description as an extended property in 2005 ...Show All

• Visual C++ STL string iterators: what happens on insert

  Before I get to my problem let me explain how I think iterators work so we're clear that I got it: Iterators point to the position of a character in a string rather than just to the adress, unlike pointers. A string doesn't need to be sequentialy stored in the memory but could be scattered across the memory in case of a pretty large string. The iterator of that string would know the positions of that string. A random access iterator could access any position in the string at once without iterating trough it sequentially. If that is the case I could do the following: Two iterators A & B point to the same string. Once I insert a ...Show All

• SQL Server Problems with reporting

  Hi, I am testing MS reporting on VS 2005 Beta2 with the report file (.rdlc) embedded in a Windows application (no server involved). Previewing the report works fine, but if I want to print it, I apparently must first click on the print preview icon in the viewer's toolbar and then click on the print icon. I believe that one should be able to print a report without showing the form containing the viewer; but is there at least a way of forcing the viewer into the print preview state by means of code Will something change in this respect in the delivery version One more question: is the version of Crystal Reports bundled in VS capable of ...Show All

• .NET Development Best practice while writing C# functions

  Hi, Anyone has any idea about how to free up memory in C# functions. Does the GC collects memory after a function has executed How about setting variables to null after we are finished with them, or the GC will automatically set them to null Does setting variables to null in finally causes an overhead void TestFunc() { XmlDocument xdDoc = new XmlDocument(); try { // use xdDoc } catch { // handle catch } finally { xdDoc = null; } } An object becomes available for garbage collection once there are no longer reachable references to that ...Show All
