• Visual C++ STL with VC71

  Question regarding STL on VC7.1 (MSVisual C++ .NET 69586-335-0000007-18460) My challenge is a linker error when I attempt to use STL strings. I can define the string (e.g. std::string exStr;) without error, but can't assign it (e.g. exStr = "test string";). I've tried linking in libraries as suggested in other forum threads, including libcp.lib, libcpmt.lib, or msvcprt.lib, but to no avail. Here's the specific error: V ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Cannot create C#, vb.net and J# projects

  I installed TFS RTM on a clean machine. The installation type is single tier. I also installed VS Team Suite on the same machine (RTM.050727-4200). The installation was easy without any errors. Creating a team project is possible. But when I try to create an new project, I can create all projects except C#, VB.Net or J#.net. These project types are disabled in the "New project" window It seems there are no templates installed for th ...Show All

• Visual C++ Relative paths in additional include directories

  Hi I'm experiencing some problems with relative paths in VC++ 2005. First of all, if I browse to the additional include dir, the added path is absolute, which is essentially never what you want to do if you are adding an include dir to a project (although it would make sense if I were adding it to the IDE itself). Fortunately, VS does completion on partially entered paths, but when I try adding them manually I get completions from the installa ...Show All

• Visual C++ Some insight for a new C++.net developer

  Good morning experts: It is beginning to become a little frustrating finding some basic information for somebody new to the .net environment in regards to c++.net 2005.

• Windows Forms Load rtf file into a richtextbox while retaining format information

  I am trying to load an rtf file which is created by using Wordpad into a richtextbox. However, the text seems lost some of its format information, e.g. text set to bold and different sizes, after been loaded into the richtextbox. How can I add these texts while retaining their format properties Calling richTextBox1.LoadFile() should preserve your document formatting. What version of Visual Studio are you ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Why can't svcutil generate proxys that supports generic lists??

  Hi, I am generating proxy code from an WSDL file. I get message classes where I get arrays. Se example below. Why can't I choose to get the svcutil to generate generic lists like IList<T> insead. I have tried the /rct switch with no luck. svcutil still generates those arrays. Is this at all possible Please if you know how, tell me ;-) Thanks /Tomas A sample from the generated code: [System.SerializableAttribute()] [System.Di ...Show All

  I would like to define a method that returns a type that is determined at runtime, i.e., public RuntimeDeterminedType Method(); Is this possible using any of the .NET languages If so, would you please post an example or a link to an example. Thanks in advance! Matthew No you can't technically do this as the compiler must be able to generate the code to return the type. However depending on your ...Show All

• SQL Server SQL 2005 scripting stored procedures

  I'm wondering if there is an automated way to script a large number of stored procedures to individual files, for later inclusion in a source safe project Preferrably they would have the same name as the sp in the database. In the sql 2005 studio, I can script them one by one, or a bunch of them to one file, but I can not see how to get them to individual files. Thanks for any suggestions.

One that configures a device and its relevant cross bars (TV Capture Solution) and a second application should utilise those settings. Just wondered if this was possible. Many thanks in advance.
