• Visual C++ 'static binding' with C++/CLI?

  After asking this question in the VC++ Express forum and not receiving a single answer I gather this forum section might be a better place to search for answers.

If it doesn't exist, then obviously workflow instances are not persisted. If I want to have a mixed model where I could somehow 'mark' a particular workflow as durable, in other ...Show All
