  There is a measure in the cube called Price.  Also a dimension called Product. I need to create a Dimension that classifies each Product by a "Price Range".  For example, Expensive, Moderate, Cheap. A user can therefore choose Cheap from "Price Range" dimension and see the "Cheap" Products and the associated Measures (Price, Units Sold, Cost, etc). To derive the classification, a Case statement can be used CASE price  &n ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Load test counter values are not correct (RC1)

  I just ran a load test. In the IDE, the average % time in GC was reported as 43.5 (min 41, max 53.2). This was on the web server. This went on for about 10 minutes. Here is a copy/paste from the table beside the graph in the IDE: % Time in GC 00:10 41.0  ... 09:00 41.2  Finally, I opened System Monitor on the web server and found the actual values were 40% lower (and therefore in the expected range with a true average of abo ...Show All

• .NET Development MessageQueue.BeginReceive method

  I like to know whether MessageQueue.BeginReceive() will receive messages FIFO or not. Another Question MessageQueue.BeginReceive uses IAsyncResult to callback which intern uses ThreadPool to call to client. Its any drawback of using ThreadPool. Messages will be taken out of queue in sequence (FIFO), but since using BeginReceive will multithread it, your application will have to manage ordering downstream. There is no drawba ...Show All
