• .NET Development get data from a stream

  Hi, i've done a little c# server that waits a stream(that contains 23 float numbers) and i can't get the floats numbers . I've looked for a properly method however i haven't been lucky. Exist any method (to extract from the stream the floats) that help me or How can i do it Thanks a lot. Given an arbitrary byte stream, you can wrap a BinaryReader around it and use the ReadSingle/ReadDouble methods to extract floating point numbers. For example: using System.IO; // In a method somewhere BinaryReader reader = new BinaryReader(someStream); float f = reader.ReadSingle(); double ...Show All

• Smart Device Development Resource Files .resx

  I am developing a smart client for a Windows Mobile 5.0 phone. Although I have 4 years of .net experience most of it is for the web ( ASP.Net). Anyway, I want to swap images in a picture box when I click the control. I was thinking of storing the images in the .resx file of the app and then swap the images from that. Questions: Is that the way to do such a thing Am I correct in assuming that there is no real drive mapping in a mobile app How to I access the images in the .resx file once they are in that file Some sort of direction concerning any of these questions would make my day.

• SQL Server How to reset the identity counter on a table referenced by a FOREIGN KEY constraint?

  I know that TRUNCATE TABLE can be used to reset the identity counter, but it can't be used on a table referenced by a foreign key. Anybody knows how to do that Thanks. Hi, if you want to use truncate, you have to drop the constraints first, othwerwise you could use DBCC CHECKIDENT (jobs, RESEED, 100) to reseed you identity.

• Visual C# Changing the Default Unhandled Exception Dialog

  Hi Everyone, Is it possible for me to customize the default dialog that pops up when .NET encounters an unhandled exception Thank you. You'll want to have a read through the following: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/library/system.appdomain.unhandledexception.aspx The default behaviour changed between .NET Framework 1.X and 2.0. What version of the Framework are you running your application on An unhandled exception means that your AppDomain (and hence your application) is going to get torn down. If you're running in the default domain (i.e. haven't created any child domains), I don't believe th ...Show All

  Hi, For my project i need some sample codings for connecting Access database using VC++. I used a dialog based project and i dont know how to access the recordset. Pls help me friends. ur suggestions are valuable...... maan!, I think you are using something from the cave age, why not using ADO (ActiveX Data Objects) and OleDb providers (MSJet 4.0 provider) to connect your Access database There is still some support for ODBC but why not using better tools available and free!! You can import all you need to use ADO directly inside you MFC project, just add in your stdafx.h file the following lines and you will get access to ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions GetDirectories problem/error

  I get the following error: The CLR has been unable to transition from COM context 0x1a01d0 to COM context 0x1a0340 for 60 seconds. The thread that owns the destination context/apartment is most likely either doing a non pumping wait or processing a very long running operation without pumping Windows messages. This situation generally has a negative performance impact and may even lead to the application becoming non responsive or memory usage accumulating continually over time. To avoid this problem, all single threaded apartment (STA) threads should use pumping wait primitives (such as CoWaitForMultipleHandles) and routinely pump message ...Show All

• Visual C++ How to handle header and footer in a report?

  Hi, I must first say that I only have a couple months experience in Visual C++. I've been reading a lots of books on the subject. Unfortunately, most of the time, the examples I could have on specific item was very "general" if I can say. With the other languages I'm using, I'm able to make reports with header and footer repeating on each page of report as well as an auto-incrementing page number, subheaders, subtotals/subfooters, etc. In all the documentation I have on hand, I unfortunately couldn't find any example of how to implement such report format. I would really appreciate if someone could give me examples or even ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System DisposeMethodsShouldCallSuppressFinalize woes

  I've got a class that derives from a class that implements public void Dispose() and protected void Dispose(bool).  My class also owns a disposable field.  So, I've derived from IDisposable and implemented the Dispose pattern, taking care to have try/finally in Dispose(bool) where base.Dispose(disposing) is called within the finally block and GC.SuppressFinalize(this) within the try block (if the object has not already been disposed and disposing is true).  But, I get the DisposeMethodsShouldCallSuppressFinalize error.  I don't receive this error in other classes that either don't derive from a dispoable class. The foll ...Show All
