• Windows Forms Problem in using Journal Hooks

  I have beening struggling on this for several days and can't figure it out. I created a Journalhook dll which using Journal Hooks (JournalRecord and JournalPlayback) to record and playback mouse and keyboard events.

  I have not yet installed TFS but I have read the CHM fle. For a single-server install, server in a workgroup, can I substitute the <machine name>\Administrator account for the three accounts they mention  Or is that going to get me into trouble TIA, Bill     For a single tier setup you can use local accounts instead of domain accounts (see "User Accounts Required for Team Foundation server setup). That said, I wouldn't use <machine name>\Administrator for TFSSERVICE or TFSREPORTS as the help file suggests that neither account should be an administrator.  I'd se ...Show All

• SQL Server Subreport Processing

  Is there any work around to the issue in Reporting Services 2000 of a subreport processing even if it is to be hidden on the parent I suppose you are concerned about the case where you conditionally (based on an expression) hide the subreport in the parent report - otherwise, why would you add the subreport in the first place One approach for conditionally hidden subreports could be to add an additional boolean parameter to the subreport. You would set that parameter based on an expression in the main report so that it evaluates to true if the subreport is conditionally hidden. Then, in the subreport y ...Show All

  I've got a drop down box that I'm populating with a dataset from XML. When I hit the drop down box the first time, it seems to populate lightning fast.

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Confused about transformation pipeline...

  Hi, I'm writing a simple 3D engine. It's my first attempt at this so I apologize in advance if I seem new at this. ( I am. ) I'm having trouble understanding the order of things when transforming the vertex buffers. I read some articles about frames (frame of reference), but I'm not able to grasp how a single frame (screen buffer) is rendered in terms of the order that each frames (frame of reference) is transformed. Say I have a simple planetary system involving a sun and another planet orbiting around it. Both the sun and the planet rotates on it's own axis with the planet also moving around the sun in a circular motion. ...Show All

• Smart Device Development Visual Studio 2005 - Cross compiling - BREW

  Hello. I've been charged with developing a build system for our (ahem) BREW projects. This involves building native x86 versions of our software (C++) for the BREW emulator, and cross-compiling (with ADS ARM) for the target. Now, because Qualcomm and Microsoft compete in this area, and also due to the generally conservative nature of the handset guys, official BREW support has been lmiited to some add-ins for Visual Studio 6 and some auto-generated makefile projects to do the cross-compile. With Visual Studio .NET 2003, I see Ray Rischpater has put together a different approach by using XSLT to transform the Visual Studio project XM ...Show All
