• Visual C# Things I would like to see in C# 3.0

  Hi all. Over the last few months while working on projects, I have become... Frustrated, if you will, at a lack of some features from other languages, that can be put into C#. The My feature from VB. This is one handy little feature ;) The union keyword. Creating unions through attributes is just plain tedious. Default parameters. These save writing extra functions, especially when you have more than five or so default parameters. Other than that, C# is a very sexy language :D Is the My-features the MyBase and MyClass I never used VB myself. Doesen't base and typeof(this) do the same thing ...Show All

• SQL Server Excel Destination Error: Column"xx" cannot convert between unicode and non-unicode string data types

  Good afternoon Trying out the Excel Destination in SSIS, I ran into the above error. I did try to ignore my 2 varchar fields and then it works fine. Thanks for any inputs. I'm jumping into this thread rather late, but I've had an experience with this problem that might be helpful to others. I've been trying to dump SQL query results into an EXCEL spreadsheet using SSIS, and that's when I first got this error message. After reading through the entries in this thread (and several others), I thought that the most direct method would be to edit the SQL Task that contained the query so that it would convert all o ...Show All

• Visual Studio Checkbox list as property type which is created dynamically at runtime

  hi, i have two classes in my designer: A and B . In my diagram there is A1 a instance of class A and B1 , B2 and B3 who are instances of class B. A1 should have a property whose type is a checkbox list and the checkbox list items should be B1 , B2 , B3 . So the items of the checkboxlist should be filled with name of the instances of class B that exist in the diagram. Is there a checkbox list type for a class property I know that there is the enum type, but this wont solve my problem since the enums are not created at runtime and you can only select one item. Or is it possible to select servel items of a enum property Any ot ...Show All

• Visual C++ what is the difference between #include "header.h" and #include <header.h>?

  I'm sorry for what sounds like a dumb question! include "" searches your local directories first, it's for files in your project. include <> searches your external include dirs first, it's for including library stuff like iostream, list, vector, etc. I believe either will work, but in theory you should get in the habit of using "" for local files and <> for library files. ...Show All

• Visual Studio Tools for Office XMLNodes Confusion

• Visual C++ Implementation for _aligned_malloc?

  Hi. I'd like to see the implementation for _aligned_malloc, in order to make a version with further capabilities. This function is part of MS C stdlib. Hmm, it just occurred to me that Microsoft's implementation of stdlib may be secret. Is that why I can't find stdlib's source Thanks from a new arrival from the PPC/CodeWarrior world... Thanks for the names of the correct source files. I had tried stepping into _aligned_malloc. VC++ Express asks me to find dbgheap.c and shows execution in some random non-code area, clearly misaligned with the actual source. Any clues how to fix that ...Show All

• Visual C++ Negtive zero valid?

  Hello, I hope I am in correct forum. I am testing Visual Studio 8 RC1, and found a negative zero. Here is a C example: {    double val = 0.0;    val = -val;    printf("%g\n", val); } Output is: -0 The result is "0" with .net 2003 version. Is this a expected behavior If this is expected, could somebody point me to the documents describing new double behaviors. Thanks! Thanks for the repy Eugene, Yep, I accept that, but end users don't understand -0.0 So having printf generate it is just painfull. I know from looking at the Microsoft C runtime ...Show All
