• Architecture Restrictive Development- Propagating Architectural Patterns

  How does the architect get their architecture propagated throughout analysis, design, and the construction phase   I have only found one way to successfully do this.   It is what I refer to as Restrictive Development. Here is an overview of Restrictive Development .   I would like your feedback on this.  Do you use another technique I also think architecture governance is an important issue and I guess in a sense I am doing something similar when I provide "Module Blueprints" as part of the Software Architecture Document. One difference, I believe, is that my ( ...Show All

• Smart Device Development Getting "Registration failed wirh error 0x8973190e. Error writing file" ... Error 0x80450001

  I am trying to register a simple sample grabber filter that I wrote for WinCE 5. It compiles and links fine and I can copy it to the remote device or emulator. But when I try to deploy the DLL I get the error in the title. Any ideas Thx, Tom Are you deploying all your dependent libraries Check out depends.exe to see what you are dependent on (ignore msjava.dll, that's not a real dependency), and make sure they are all on the device and locatable by your app. If they are all present, then the next step is debugging your registration calls. * Switch the register output property on the deployment property ...Show All

• Visual Basic Changing Caption in Title Bar

  I am currently working on a project that calls for me to change the caption in the title bar to what it says in one of my text boxes. The text box is linked to a database so everytime I use my navigate buttons, the name in the text box changes. How do I change the caption of the title bar at the same time I have been assuming that I do it during the change event of the text box. Please Help You must change Me.Text property, here is an example : Private Sub TextBox1_TextChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles TextBox1.TextChanged Me.Text = TextBox1.Text End Sub ...Show All

• Windows Forms DataGrid Not Updating

  In my first attempt at using a DataGrid I created one that pulls data from a table in a Microsoft Access database. The data displays fine. I have an update command that should update the row. I have a row updated event handler that checks to see if the update threw any exceptions. It comes back with no exceptions yet my update is not happening. The fields are not read-only so I'm puzzled as to how it could indicate success yet nothing is happening. any ideas No and that is part of my confusion. In the sample code I've seen they make it look like the "updatecommand" line in the .aspx field is ...Show All

• Windows Forms Exposing 2-deep properties in databinding

  So I have an object I'm databinding to, and when I pull down the list of items to bind to, I want to be able to select the property of an item, but the properties of the custom class I have are not shown, and instead I have to type it in manually. I've searched for a number of different solutions, implement ITypedList, ICustomTypeDescriptor, but I've grown tired of implementing interfaces for the fun of it and not being able to find useful or up to date examples. Let me try to visualize this for you: bindingSource.DataSource = MyObject; textBox1.Text = BindingSource.CustomClassProperty.Name; The problem with the above psuedo-code ...Show All

  I have a DataGridView with four textbox columns. When the user is entering data in one of the columns, I want to handle the TextChanged event. The CellValueChanged event of the grid only occurs when the user has finished typing and leaves the cell, but I need to capture every keystroke. How would I do that Hi Daniel, Great work!

• Visual C++ CWind::Invalidate Problem

  Hi, I have a dialog box that allows you to enter text, when you press 'ok' the window underneath, from which the dialog box came, is updated with the new text.  Fairly straigh forward stuff.  However when you enter into the dialog box the '&' sign followed by anything else, it removes the & sign and underlines the next character in string upon clicking 'ok'.  To my knowledge the string is not actually altered because when you re-load the dialog box, which will display the stuff you have already written, the & sign is still there and displayed the way it should. I have managed to track the problem down to the i ...Show All
