• Visual Studio IVsProject3->OpenItem is called for each document having a breakpoint before the debugging starts

  Hi, I have implemented my own debug engine, we are creating a virtual project to enable debugging. All my docs are non file based docs. My problem is that when I start a debugging session I see that OpenItem in IVsProject3 is called for each document that has a breakpoint in it. Iam not sure why it is happening but I observed the same behavior with the MY C sample provided with the sdk. The call comes from the Vsdebug.dll, Is there any way by which I can stop these calls coming as these calls are unnecessarily trying to open documents that may or may not be required, I would still like my breakpoints to be available as otherwise I wou ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. dxwebsetup.exe and full redist. setup return codes?

  Hi folks, Does anyone know from where to get the dxwebsetup.exe and full redist. setup return codes Thank you in advance for any help or suggestion in this case.   odklizec wrote: Thanks for reply! Well, that's problem. It looks that dxwebsetup.exe returns some more codes. For example, when there is no connection, you will get error -1442840576. OK, I will have to live with the information that 0 and 1 is success and hope that's true ;) We don't currently document the dxwebsetup.exe exit codes because most of them come from the underlying ieexpress setup components and are subject to chan ...Show All

• Visual Basic SQL Express 2005 won't save any data

  Can someone please help me   I am so stuck. I've constructed the example in Help 5 times and the 16 part learning series (section 9) 9 or 10 times, and cannot get the Data Grid View or Details View drag and drop database to do anything other than display data.  They simply will not save any data at all. To answer your question, I have created the table, entered sample data and hooked up the data source. I followed directions to the very letter. Funny thing: The downloaded sample file from section 9 of the 16 part learning series runs perfectly. Personally, I opted to keep the DB file seper ...Show All

• Visual Studio How to move shapes within diagram programmatically???

  Hi, is there a possibility to change to position of a shape within the diagram by code. My intenion is, when i move a shape all its connected shaped should be moved as well. Is this possible Any hints or ideas Thanks, Benjamin Benjamin, You can change the position of a shape by setting its AbsoluteBounds property. You will need to do this in a transaction. You can detect when a shape has moved by creating "ChangeRule" for the shape class. This will be called when any attribute for the shape changes. However, if you are only interested in knowing when the shape moved, you ca ...Show All

• Windows Forms Creating an Editable Label

  Need to write a custom control to allow in-place editing, similar to that in a word processor, but user could edit ONLY those underlined (or similar specially marked) words in sentences -- not to allow editing the whole sentence or page. Appearance should look like a hyperlinked label, but not to function as a hyperlink. As the user enters longer text than the original, all the text on the right side of it should shift accrodingly as in a word processor. Expected functionalities are: - By double clicking the underlined (or specially marked) words, user is allowed to edit that particular text. Existing t ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Creating Custom Transports

  I am in the process of creating a custom transport to leverage Sun Message Queue. I have created the necessary classes by extending and implemented the required classes and interfaces (i.e. ChannelFactory, ChannelListener, IInputChannel, IOutputChannel, etc…). I am able the send a message using the proxy leveraging my new transport. I know the message goes through Message Queue and I receive the message on the ServiceHost side. I have traced into my QueueInputChannel and I see that WCF invokes BeginTryReceive and EndTryReceive. I know this is working because the EndTryReceive method has the message from the queue and has successfully transf ...Show All

• .NET Development XML serializer does not serialize values of properties if value contains only spaces

  Hi all, I have a field of type string in a type that is serialized to XML. If the field value is just one space, the resulting XML is this: <FieldName /> This creates an issue with deserializing, because in the context of the application, " " is not equal to string.Empty. I've looked for options on the serializer, and for serialization attributes that would control this behavior, but I could not find any. Any help is appreciated. SA. [Edit: changed subject to be more accurate description of the problem.] Please, consider that XML "normalize" whitespaces in the attribute ...Show All
