• Visual Studio Team System tfsbuild delete working but report not changing

  There's a cryptic title. Here's the situation: I created a couple of builds using Team Build and everything was correctly published. I used tfsbuild delete to delete these items because they were test items. The items were reported as deleted (and all of the build information was deleted (drop location, build location, etc.). However, when I re-ran the build report, those builds were still listed there. Is this a known bug or is there a manual way that the results of that report has to be changed Thanks. Jeff There is a utility on the application tier called SetupWarehouse.exe. It is located here: ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Creating a dll in C and then using it in Visual C# express

  Hi all, Does anyone have a solution to my problem. I have lots of functions that are programmed in C. I don't have the time or sufficient knowledge to convert the functions to C#. My only best bet is to convert all the functions to a .dll and reference it to a C# Windows application I am creating at the moment. I've tried building a .dll in MinGW..but no luck since there seems to be some incompatiblity. Please help. Thanks. The easiest way is to make a managed C++ dll which has methods in the managed class that call the C functions ( nearly all C compiling in a C++ compiler ) and return the result. ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Windows Platform SDK

  I just downloaded C++ Express I could work with DirectX, and then I downloaded the Windows Platform SDK, the amd64. The problem is I can't install it. When I try to, I get "Not a valid Win32 application." The answer depends on what operating system/service pack (the one said in Start -> run -> sysdm.cpl) you are running, but I believe the answer is: download the x86 version instead. ...Show All

• Windows Forms MSDataSetGenerator and xsd:import

  Hi, I'm trying to use the MSDataSetGenerator with a couple of XSD files that rely on importing some common xsd files with <xsd:import>. However, when setting the schemaLocation attribute to a relative path I always get an error message saying something like: Type [insert type name here] is not declared, or is not a simple type. It works fine if I use an absolute path, but that certainly isn't a good option.. Any clues to a solution /Anders A simple example: MyIncludedSchema.xsd < xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" > <xs:schema id="MyIncludedSchema" t ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Installing WWF beta 2 on 64bit Windows XP

  I'm getting the following message when trying to install WWF beta 2 on 64bit Windows. Max only runs on Windows XP Service Pack 2. You can install Service Pack 2 from Windows Update. This version of Windows includes many useful security features (besides Max compatibility). Any ideas Thanks, Phillip Very Interesting. I do not have Max installed but I believe I tried to install it some time ago (it doesn't run on 64bit windows). So I ended up moving the WWF Beta 2 installer to another directory on my machine and it works (by default I have everything I download go into the same directory). I guess there is s ...Show All

• .NET Development having regex problems - no more than a few words?

  [edit] I will retract my original question until i find further problems, seems to be ok for now[/edit] in the mean time i will ask another Q! I am reading a stream from the net using GetResponse, to a string since this stream may have inner and outer html code (inner meaning examples shown in html on an html page) - is there a way of finding the html tags (like a normal search pattern) because I can search for anything else BUT any html tags do i need to use some other expression for regex or is there another way other than this, there may be some characters that are used in regex (as a syntax i think) that are actually on the pa ...Show All
