• .NET Development seeking socket samples

  i posted a message regarding a problem i was having and have been trying to find a sample of code that fits what i am looking for, and i don't think i am finding what i am looking for. basically, i have a client that wants to connect to a server and process some type of transaction for which the server will return a value.  the client should be able to execute any number of transactions against the server at the same time. transactions generally "complete" (with a response from the server) in 1 to 30 seconds.  i've been messing with the asynchronous "receive", but it doesn't seem to respond the way it should. the samples i was usi ...Show All

• SQL Server From SQL Express to XML file

  HI guys, Is there any tool to import the database from SQLExpress to change it into XML without doing much programming code in .Net Thanks! Chin Hi Chin, The short answer is no, SQL Express doesn't include any import/export tools. That said, Transact-SQL provides syntax that lets you represent your data as XML, and you could use that to produce XML and then save that to a file. Check out my answer to a similar question at http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx PostID=368472&SiteID=1 for links to pertinent BOL topics.

• Visual Studio Team System MSDN Subcription

  This is probably not the best place to ask, but I haven't been able to get an answer from the MSDN folks... Any idea if we will be able to transition our existing subscriptions over to VSTS for DP when it is available I currently subscribe to VSTS Dev. Not being an expert on licensing, but the Team System license model is either based on seperate SKU's like Developer, Test or Architect; or you are have a Suite license which includes today Developer, Test and Architect. When VSTE DB will be released this will be the fourth SKU in the Suite. If you can not transfer VSTE Dev in to VSTE Test today, I do ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Reports are not accessible from Team Foundation Server

  I tried creating a duplicate of the Team Foundation Server. The process of taking backup of the data and restoring the same on the duplicate server worked fine. When I tried to view the reoprts on the original Team Foundation Server through the IE, the folders showing the team projects were not visible. Also in the IDE, the Reports folder has a red cross accross it. I am using the beta version of TFS. And the original Team Foundation Server was shut down when the restore was being carried out on the duplicate machine. Any pointers to what must be worng. Check to make sure that ReportingSerivces is up and running fine. Also, wh ...Show All

• Visual C++ Turn off unicode using pragma or something inside the code itself?

  Hello, I'm using Visual C++ 2005 and I was wondering if you can use a #pragma or something inside the code itself to turn off unicode I know you can do it manually from inside the IDE by going to Project->Properties->Configuration Properties->General and there setting Character Set to "Not Set", but I'd like to do it from the code itself if possible. Similar to linking in non-standard libs by doing #pragma comment(lib, libname) (if I remember that one correctly). I'm terribly sorry, but this does indeed seem to work. Just make sure the #undefs comes before any includes of system headers. ...Show All

  Does anyone know how I can get to the website for registration I can't get the activation key thing to work. I keep getting page not found error. Thanks.

• Visual Studio Add web control to web form designer at design time

  Someone please help me !! I am trying to add a standard web control (e.g. label, textbox, datagrid) to the currently active web form surface in VS2002/2003. If I add it using the DesignerHost.CreateComponent method it seems to add to the controls collection OK, and usually the code-behind shows the declarations. But the HTML design / source tabs never display the added item. How can I get this working Someone mentioned simulating drop after placing a control in the clipboard. Anyone know how to solve this The exact same code I developed so far is fine and dandy when used for Win Form. Thanks - Kevin In VS ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Team Projects and Product Releases

  I interested in how people are handling releases in relation the team project. In other word, how do you handling moving from 1.0 to 1.1 or 2.0. The way I see it there are a few ways of handling this: 1. Keep everything in the same project. This seems like it would be a good idea as you would maintain a complete work item history thought the life of a product. But do we really want to Sure, 1.0 issues that are unresolved are good to know during 2.0, but what about 10.2 Seems to me like this could clutter up really fast. Of course the is the problem of what do to about work items you want to push to 2.0's timeframe even though you're ...Show All

• Windows Forms Invoke freezes and BeginInvoke queues up too many messages.

  We are using a combination of C# and Managed C++ in .NET 2.0 Our program has a couple of threads. The main thread is controlling the GUI primarily. A second thread runs a very fast running loop that obtains data and controls a piece of hardware (or simulates such). When the second thread gets an update, we have it use Invoke to update the GUI. However, under particularly system intensive conditions, or when the user does something like dragging the window, the second thread will stop when it calls Invoke. We have tried using BeginInvoke as an alternative, but that second thread just runs too fast and too many BeginInvokes get queued and w ...Show All
