• Smart Device Development httpwebrequest https Proxy Authentication issue

  I'm using VS 2003. With a Dell Axim x51 (with Windows Mobile 2005) It has embedded in the rom CF 2.0 (i believe). The proxy address is port 80, and I'm given an IP, username, and password. I can use the Pocket IE on the device and get through. However the following code yields... different responses when attempting. Sometimes I get 407 error (which is enter proxy credientials), or a timeout, and if you notice I increased the request timeout to 6 minutes. Or if I try to hit a 443 address. I get immediately 'can not estasblish a secure connection for SSL'. The proxy server uses NTLM authentication (at least in one of our cases) There are publ ...Show All

• Visual Studio VS Beta2 crashes and restarts when I try and run it in debug mode.

  When I try and run my web application in debug mode, the IDE will build my application, but when it comes time to display it using the IDE's development server, the IDE displays a warning message, that I should save everything and VS will shutdown and restart. If I just do a build of my application it builds successfully.  Is anyone else having this issue Does anyone know of a fix Thanks Found the solution.   It seems to be a problem with the window layout in the IDE.  I was able to run the debugger after I went to the Window Menu and selected Reset Window Layout. Hope this helps. ...Show All

• Visual C# Compiling a native C DLL for use in VC# using DllImport

  Hi Group! I'm a C# newbie (real wet and raw) as well as a complete newbie to Microsoft OS programming. Normally I use native 'C' on Posix complient platforms - which I've been doing for many decades. Scruitinsed this BB for an answer but can't find anything close.

Can someone please give me a pointer to how to get started in Microsoft products Can Visual C# IDE compile a native C routine (after all most C++ IDE's can) and what do I ha ...Show All

• .NET Development datagridview updates

  What event in a dgv would be best for submitting updates to the database.  right now I have a button under the dgv and the user must click it to process the updates.  I would prefer something like an OnExit event of the dgv, but only do it if the dgv is dirty. Any suggestions   oh, and man there are alot of events for the dgv. Hi, Your approach is good enough for me. But if you want to automate the process, then I suggest trapping if there are unsaved changes upon exiting the form and prompt the user to save changes or not. I really don't suggest updating the database row by row (realtime up ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Expander control

  I have a couple of questions about the Expander control. 1 - Is it just me or does the expand button on the header seem backwards to anyone else The arrow pointing up is when the panel is expanded and the arrow pointing down is when the panel is collapsed. 2- Is there a way to actually have the content panel expand and collapse It seems to me that the control should behave that way out of the box. Is this a known issue or the designed behavior of the control. Either way anyone have a quick tip on how to expand/collapse the control. An animation example would be great if you have that :D Thanks! ...Show All
