• Visual Studio using MSBuild to build projects from multiple developers

  Hi all, I am starting out to setup a automated build process for our organization. We decided that we are going to get the latest version of the code from sourcesafe whenever a complete build needs to made. But i am having trouble implementing that solution. The project i am currently trying to automate the build process for is being worked on multiple developers. Each of the developers have their projects setup in their own directories locally and also reference the DLLs from other developers locally. A developer working on a certain DLL completes it and distributes the DLL to the others who want to reference it.The DLLs that are referen ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista NO XP 64 Drivers for Microsoft products CRAZZZZZY

  I am very dissapointed that microsoft releases an operating system and does not even have drivers out for their own hardware. None for the keyboard, mouse and fingerprint reader! If I knew this before I bought the 64 bit version I would have never bought it! The system I bought online came with Windows XP Pro and it turned out to be a bootleg copy so I tried to do the right thing and buy the latest out only to find out they did not have antivirus software out and drivers for their own hardware. Thats Crazy! Norton now has antivirus software but you have to buy the corprate version that is pricey. But still no drivers for the fingerprin ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Scollable Text Boxes lack copy command

  In this forum for instance, why doesn't the right click context menu of selected text not have the copy menu (If I select some of this text, I will not  see a copy menu - there is a paste menu and a select all menu)  I have to use the Ctrl-C instead. I have the problem on multiple systems. I first noticed this recently using SBC Global's Yahoo web email message boxes. It started about two months ago for SBC's web email. I complained but they haven't corrected it. I mention SBC, as I presume both issues are related somehow to these scrollable text boxes. SBC's compose, ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) .xaml.cs files cannot be edited after installing orcas

  Hi I use VS 2005 RTM + Jan CTP SDK + orcas to build WPF applications. I have a strange problem - the .xaml.cs files are hard to edit. They will not accept most keystrokes unless I type a lot of times (strange but true and not a problem with my keyboard), but some keys are always accepted (for example: DELETE key and also CTRL+C, CTRL+V - copy&paste works). Any ideas I'm told: This * sounds * like some sort of conflict with our copy/paste commands on the designer. We need to investigate. A possible work around is to right click on the .cs file and choose “open with”. Select the source co ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. DirectX vs. WPF

  A friend of mine said that Avalon was dropped off and renamed to DirectX 10. Based on the theZBuffer.com, there is no DX10, and from what I know, Avalon has been renamed to WPF. So what's the connection between Avalon, WPF, and DirectX (10 ) Are they sharing the same code, or one's just using another's API Thanks! You are right that Avalon was the codename for WPF (Windows Presentation Foundation). WPF use Direct3D 9 to render a vector based UI. WPF is not dropped as it is one of the three main parts of WinFX. As WPF supports 3D effects you can build 3D games with it but it supports only a limited subset of the functions th ...Show All

• .NET Development additional space character corrupts mail format

  Hello World, I want to update a template file 'mail1.html', have a web form replace some text, and send the mail when the user submits a form. This works fine most of the time, but sometimes I get extra space characters in the output that can break the html format. For example: <TD> gets changed into < TD>. The template contains html code for the layout (a table) and the strings '#App#' and '#Req#' which must be replaced by the variables as shown. If I send the template directly without updates it works fine, if I update it it works most of the time, but sometimes there ...Show All
