Software Development for Windows Vista WWF and SCORM
Is there any research or effort ongoing at Microsoft (James ) on using WWF in a SCORM compliant solution I'm referring to the ADL Sequencing specification (SCORM 2004 Sequencing and Navigation). Is Microsoft interested in SCORM at all There is very little info on Microsft.com on e-learning, specifically on Learning Management Systems (LMS). Looking at WWF and SCORM, it may be a task as simple as providing an XSLT transform between XOML (XAML) and SCORM XML, or a more complex task of providing a set of SCORM compliant activities or a SCORM Sequencer. Thank you for any feed-back you may have :) ...Show All

.NET Development WMI Performance Counters
How would I go about monitoring the CPU% of a process (possibly multiple instances) by name (i.e. foo.exe), and reacting to a condition where the CPU% exceeds a certain threshold I am looking into the WMI performance counter classes for some insight, as well as the "cooked" counters. Ideally, I'd like to maintain a moving average of CPU% of a process, such that I can react if a process has been exceeding a threshold for N seconds. This would allow me to normalize for "spikes" in CPU%. Once I identify a "overage" I would like to lower that process' priority and quantum until it drops under the threshold. Ho ...Show All
.NET Development SslStream and certificate chains
We are designing an application that will accept SSL connections. Our server will need to send a certificate chain to the client as part of the SSL handshake, instead of a single certificate. Does the SslStream class support this It looks to me as if it only supports a single certificate in the handshake. ...Show All

Smart Device Development Blank IO Exception
Hi. I'm trying to write to a serial, COM, port on the mobile device. using .NET 2.0 here and WM2005. After months of trying to find out, I found out a couple of ways of doing so. Yesterday I tried the serialport class, unfortunatly when it writes to the serial port, it gives me a blank IOException - no idea why. The COM port is 3 and is enabled in the system settings by default. Next step was to go low level stuff - so I imported coredll.dll so I can use CreateFile(). I seem to be getting a handle, cool! But I guess its a limitation - if i want to give that handle to .NET using the FileStream class, it doesnt have it in the . ...Show All
Visual Studio Refactor Encapsulate field repeatedly
Hi. I have an object with more the 100 fields. I wonder if there is a method to automate the process of encapsulating those fields. I'm just too lazy to do "Right-Click -> Refactor -> Encapsulate Field" for 100 times if i select all the fields and do "Encapsulate" then only last selected field is encapsulated. Any suggestions on this Thanks. Hi, This is not supported in the shipped code of Class Designer. However, you can easily add this feature by creating a command yourself through an add-in. You can install the CD Power Toys add-in , create a command and insert the following co ...Show All

Hi, I wanted to view the ...designer.aspx.cs- and ...designer.ascx.cs-files, and was told I could find them by clicking the "Show All Files"-button in the Solution Explorer. Unfortunately, this button disappears when I select a web site project. (I am able to expand the aspx- and ascx-files, but the only thing I see is the aspx.cs- and ascx.cs-files, not the partial designer-classes).
