• SQL Server HELP! - URL Access - Localhost vs. ServerName

  We have a confusing problem and need some guidance. We are trying to use URL access to generate and display a report. We have tried two ways--building the URL string and popping up a new browser with the Reporting Services URL access string and simply using an anchor tag and setting its URL parameter to the Reporting Services URL access string. Both options don't work--well, one works for the local server and the other works for client computers (not the server), but neither work for both. Basically, we're having trouble using localhost vs. servername in our URL access string. The examples below use localhost. These work fine from t ...Show All

• .NET Development PublisherIdentityPermissionAttribute broken in 2.0?

  Hi, In 1.0/1.1 the following code ensures that a class that wants to inherit from InheritanceDemandExample must be signed with the publisher certifcate contained in the file C:\Certs\pubcert.cer. using System.Security; using System.Security.Permissions; [PublisherIdentityPermission(SecurityAction.InheritanceDemand, CertFile = @"C:\Certs\pubcert.cer")] public class InheritanceDemandExample { // ... } If you look at the IL, you can see the cert embedded in the assembly and the runtime correctly throws a SecurityPermission if an inappropriate class tries to extend InheritanceDemandExample. However, in 2.0, all you see in the IL ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. DXUT tutorial

  Is there more information I can get on how to use the sample framework that comes with DX other then on microsoft.com.  There's not a lot there, and I really want to be able to use the user interfaces and controls effectivly. Thanks, Shane Tom Miller 's book " Beginning 3D Game Programming " also uses the sample framework quite heavily, and he gives you a fair bit of information on what's being used and why. Bear in mind that this was written against the October 2004 SDK, so some of the code needs to be updated to work with the current versions, and that some of the samples in the book aren't quite rig ...Show All

• Visual Basic Disabling the close button of a windows application has a problem

  When I tried to disable the close button of my Windows Application program using an unmanaged code, this red close button will appear again if I maximized, minimized it , or using Win(key) + D (and again) I don't know why... I can delete the Close menu item, but rather, I wanna disable it. So, if you please find the solution, thanks... Good to hear that you find solution! OnResize() also can help here, just like LayoutChanged. HandleCreated will be called when internal WinForms stuff decide that it need new HWND. As far as I know this happens when you change some styles, like Border (WinForms wi ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Is there no support for native C++ in Team System?

  The subject says it all.  What test tools in VSTS actually do work for native C++   So far, I've found prefast.  I get the impression from the help that none of the unit test tools, or code coverage tools are usable for native C++.  Am I missing something, or is VSTS not very helpful for native development Another non-unit-test possibility is to set up a generic test (that just opens your native c++ app), configure code coverage the normal way to instrument the app, and then launch the test that way.   This is still linked in as a "test" but it might get you far enough away from the unit testing ...Show All
