• Visual C# Unable to load class library

  I wrote a managed wrapper in C++/CLI and compiled it under AMD64. Now I wrote a client in C++/CLI too and this works well. Trying to do the same in C# I got everything to compile but when I run it it says: Unhandled Exception: System.IO.FileNotFoundException: The specified module could not be found. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x8007007E) at MyClass.Main() This is weird though. I compiled the C# file for 'anycpu' but trying to set the platform to x64 did not do any difference. The class library is even located in the same directory.  It was compiled using the RC:         csc /out:test_cs.exe tes ...Show All

• Visual FoxPro editbox control snaps.

  It is a fairly mild problem but still an inconvenience. I have an editbox and a text is assigned to it in the following manner: THISFORM.Pageframe1.Page4.Edit1.ControlSource = "(ThisForm.cData)" All other operations are done programmatically. I may force it to count the number of lines and go to a specific line and highlight it. It does. But then after a while, perhaps in about 2 minutes, it snaps to the first line (beginning of file is fact). It never fails to jump backwards. It is annoying. Why does it do it What can be done about it Thanks. Do you have any code that refreshes the editbox (or the whole form) Tha ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Getting files with specific extensions using FolderBrowserDialog

  Hi everyone. I'm making a media player using the BASS API Library and Direct-X. My problem is, I'm using the FolderBrowserDialog component and I know it can't filter files but I need only files with specific extensions to be added to the Listbox I have on the form. So far the code looks like this: Public Sub foldertoplaylist() Dim plug As Integer = 2 Dim playlistid3 As String Dim chosen As String Dim filInfo As IO.FileInfo AddFolder.Description = "Choose the folder you would like to add to Tray-Play" If addfolder.ShowDialog = Windows.Forms.DialogResult.Cancel Then ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Policy Override Reports

  Hi All, I want to create a report for showing all the policy overrides comments. Unfortunately, I donot find the override comments data in TFSWarehouse database. Is there any way I can port this data to the TFSWarehouse database everytime the warehouse is updated with data. Or any other suggestions for creating such a report will be helpful. I donot want to create a report that reads from TfsVersionControl database. Thanks, Sarathy That policy override data is not in the warehouse. I've filed a suggestion in the TFS Work Item Tracking system to consider having this included, as I've seen it ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System File System??

  I installed TFS server on a system which had FAT32 as its file system and ultimately landed with the error 32000 which asked me either to change the file system or place the virtual server directory in an ntfs sytem. So do I now need to reinstall the OS, configure it as ntfs and again install tfs or convert the existing file system without reinstalling the OS or removing TFS . The latter is a time saving solution but would it lead to authentication problems(which windows takes of) later Thankx in advance, Bharath If you convert the filesystem in-place, you can specify the /nosecurity switch. (eg convert c ...Show All

• Visual Basic TextBox array

  I am upgrading a program that I wrote in VB6 to VB2005 and am having trouble with textboxes. In the VB6 version, I used an array of textboxes to display and order text on screen according to it's priority. This was done in a module. The VB6 program takes a new message, checks it's priority (assigns the texbox color according to priority) and then adds it into the array according to the textbox color and arrival sequence of both itself and the existing array members. In the 2005 version data is processed by a module and passed to the form (because I can't process the text boxes in the module). The form then needs to display the data on ...Show All

• Visual Basic WinForm Deployment in VB.Net

  I have a solution that has two projects. I was able to deploy the first project with no problems using a set-up project,adding it to the solution , and building it.

• Visual Basic KeyEvent Questions

  I know how to get the key event of the application that I am working on, but how do I use the keyevent classes to capture general keystrokes For instance, if I want to mask a textbox to only allow numbers (I use VB.NET 2003), then I would monitor the keyevents for that specific textbox. What do I do if I want to mask a key or several keys for an entire program Would I have to put a mask everywhere or is there an easier way to do this. If you must know what this is for, then here is the skinny. My friend and I are what you would call pranksters. He just wrote this program and slipped it on my machine that made my mouse control go completel ...Show All

• Visual C++ What happened to vector?

  Something is wrong with the STL 'vector' header file in the 2005 Express installation.  After installing beta 2, I can't compile any source files which #include<vector> any more.  The vector file is now 59k as opposed to a very tiny 'vector' header in the VC++ 2003 Toolkit.  Also, the VC++2005 vector file has all the code in it, while the vector file that works only has a few lines including some other headers.  These problems just started with Beta 2.  I get about nine syntax errors  pointing me to various lines in vc++2005 'vector': ------ Build started: Project: test, Configuration: Debug Win32 ------ ...Show All
