• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) InfoCard: ADFS

  Reading the InfoCard Guide to Integrating with InfoCard  I was asking myself if the ADFS can be considered (and how) an Identity Provider. Any thought Thanks, Pierre Hi Pierre, Future version of ADFS will support InfoCard. It means it can act as Identity Provider.  It can also act as an STS to the Relying Party.   For example, this STS can accept SAML token, in exchange of a custom token; and the ultimate recipient i ...Show All

• Visual FoxPro Reindexing a free table in .NET

  I am responsible for a set of VFP Free Tables used for storing client information.  The front end for these tables has been created by a third party, however, the system is problematic and the index becomes corrupted on an almost daily basis.

• Smart Device Development Copy protection?

  Hello guys, I was thinking of some ways how to protect my .net cf application from pirates, but I could not figure out something very useful. I think the obvious way to do it is to use keys. The customer will buy the application and you will send him the key generated for his Owner name for example. My application will check if it is OK and then it runs. But the potential cracker could just disassemble this app and create a keygen or people can ...Show All

• .NET Development sn.exe exit code documentation ?

  Hi, When one calls sn.exe, what are the expected error codes (errorlevel) in return I'm using delay signing. I think about three cases when achieving the final signing: - assembly was signed successfully (seems to be errorlevel 0) - assembly was not signed because it's already signed with the provided key - assembly could not be signed (either because it's already signed with another key, or file not found etc) I could not find anything rela ...Show All
