• SQL Server Data integration challenge. Will SSIS help?

  Hi, We have a requirement to do ETL on large EDI batch files into SQL Server. For this we have to map several X12 schemas - which are fairly complex - into relational schema. Right now they use Biztalk but that is not a good option for batch processing of large EDI files. Performance is really bad. Is this possible using SSIS Are there any 3rd party tools which might integrate with SSIS to make this easier or can do this as a stand-alone I know Mapforce 2005 from Altova supports X12 mapping and even generates C# code for the mapping. Anyone has experience in using Mapforce generated C# code in SSIS Looking forward to any insigh ...Show All

• Visual C++ Exception handling in MFC applications

  Every so often, our application (built with VC++ 2003) throws a C++ exception, usually derived from std::exception, not CException, that is not handled. This as expected calls abort(). The first question is why that generates no dump file, in either release or debug builds - the docs for _set_abort_behavior state that the default is to produce a Dr. Watson dump. I tried to get around this by calling std::set_terminate, pointing it to this function: void LastResortExceptionHandler() { __try { OutputDebugString("Raising C exception to get stack trace for minidump\n"); RaiseException(EXCEPTION_BREAKPOINT,0,0,NULL); } __e ...Show All

• Visual C++ How to find procedure addresses from dll in resource?

  Hello, I have placed a DLL into a resource as type "RCDATA". I can programmatically find, load and lock the resouce. How can I find the procedure addresses, GetProcAddress() doesn't seem to work because it needs a HMODULE, which seems to be only available from a "physical" DLL file. Can anyone please point me in the right direction   Thank you VERY much! Uwe You have to create the file physically on a drive if you want to execute it. Otherwise I see no way to load it into memory. If you just want the entry address without execution you can parse the PE fileformat. ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Threshold Violations reported when the threshold has not been reached

  Why do I see threshold violations reported during load tests in the following format: "The value 10 is less that the critical threshold value of 20" I would expect to only see this type of message and a threshold error counter increase if the the reported value was actually greater than the threshold value.

• Windows Forms How can I control the spacing of items in ListView component? Thanks!

  How can I control the spacing of items in ListView component Thanks! I have set the View attribute of ListView as LargeIcon. After run, I find the spacing between icons is too wide. How can I control the spacing between icons in ListView component You're right! It doesn't work! Sorry, I thought it might.    I had some time to play around with it this weekend and couldn't get any of it to work. But, I thought I remembered using drag/drop before to move icons around, so I fired up the app where I did that and discovered that it didn't work there either. I hope someone else might have a better answer for you! Sorry! ...Show All

• Visual Studio Extending with a new Platform / Device.

  How can I introduce a new device / platform into visual studio I'm talking about the integration you see with SmartPhones, XBOX, etc. Is it even public the interface to integrate stuff like that There's another example, altho a little bit different - F#. It has source code and all, except for the imteresting part - the integration. I think it's interesting because it's using another compiler - an exe file. I dont really understand why this part of the extensibilty is kept "secret", because i would think that it'll make Visual Studio even more popular to developers - especially game developers because it will create a mechanism of ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Team System WITHOUT .NET

  Hi, I am about to undertake a rough cost-benefit analysis for my company for VSTS and the thing that might sway us for or against is that whereas most of our projects are built in ASP.NET so we would get full use of VSTS, we do still have a lot of projects using other technologies, e.g. Flash, CMS tools such as Tridion and ObTree, and even some Java based web apps. We spend a lot of money every year on VSS (and Source off Site for internet Source control), Document Management systems, Bug Tracking Software, and we have some tools for automating builds. I know that in a solely .NET environment we could throw all of these away as VSTS has thes ...Show All
