• Software Development for Windows Vista Beta2 lab - [ExternalDataExchange] or [ExternalDataExchange] ?

  Hi, I have downloaded WWF beta 2 lab. In lab 4 of the order state machine example, it is still using [ ExternalDataExchange ] which won't compile under WWF Beta 2. (I thought it should use [ExternalDataExchange] for service component) Just wonder if the Beta 2 lab source code is up to date or I am missing something thanks chong Hi there, I've just downloaded and installed the beta 2 HOL from the following location: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx familyid=5DF74E3B-FB51-4A94-A11D-DFF70288A8BB&displaylang=en I did a full text search on all the lab04 dirs and could ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) PeerChannel message loss and more test data

  Here's the latest in my attempt to find a reliable configuration for PeerChannel to handle large volume enterpries messaging, and some new test results. When I first started playing with PeerChannel, it seemed like it lost messages very easily. Then I found that by adding an Application.DoEvents or a small sleep in my tight sending loop, things got better. A lot better: a couple of days ago I posted test results where I never lost a single message. If I really pushed things and tried to send a million messages, receivers eventually ran out of memory, but the network and its buffering were superb. Not a single lost message. That testing wa ...Show All

• Visual Studio The report definition for report 'xxx' has not been specified

  Hello, I have to confess that I never did anything with reporting services, reports, or whatsoever. For a rather huge database application (based on sql express) I thought it might be best to do the printing with local reports, which I planed to bind to the objects, I already used as data layer in my project. I created a simple report (just a table, with two fields), bound the report to the ReportViewer-Control, set the bindingsource-properties in form load. But the only thing I see is this error message "The report definition for report 'xxx' has not been specified" So: What *is* a report definition and how *do* I specify it Are there ...Show All
