• .NET Development No Managed DirectX for 64bit?

  I posted this issue back during Beta 1 and was told that Microsoft will look at making a 64 bit Managed DirectX after the OS and the development environment was released. That is way too late for those of us looking to release a 64 bit application any time soon! Is there any update from Microsoft on availability of even a Beta Managed DirectX for the x64 Thanks - John Sigh...

• SQL Server text box sending large amounts of text to next page Microsoft please help

  I have a report that has a text box called Fields!ResolutionText. If the resolution is small the whole report stays on one page. If the Resolution is a long one, the whole text box goes to the next page, leaving the first page w/ only 1/3 with information on it and a huge blank space. How can I force the information on to the first page and to fill the first page before putting the rest of the text on to the second page. Any help would be appreciated. In SSRS 2005, text boxes are always kept together. If the text box will span a page boundary and can fit completely in one page alone, then it will be moved to the next page. If the text ...Show All

• SQL Server Communicating between 3 Service Broker instances

  I have a problem. I am trying to set up Service Broker communication between 3 machines, all running the September CTP release. I have included the scrip (edited) that I used to setup the 3 machines. This scrip refers mainly to what was done to server1, with comments to indicate which parts were done on the other servers (commented out the connectionstring property to indicate a change of server) I also added comments to indicate the copying/deleting of certificates; this script is intended to recreate the three setups if necessary so there is script that checks for the existence of objects before trying to create said objects.

In Source Files there is a .cpp file called Test.cpp. This has the directive #include "form1.h". It therefore should have forward definitions of functions attached to buttons, etc. on the form. But, I can't copy and paste a function definition from form1.h, then enter code here. I get scope resolution problems. I have a .cpp file that contains a function. I put it here so that I can use it over and over easily. However, I can't get scope resolution if I add the file to Source Files in ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Programming Languages

  I need to know in what ways are C, C++, Java and C# alike or similiar. Wow - there's a huge question. C is a non object oriented language. C++ was designed by Bjarne Stroustrup to offer OO in C, he'd seen OO in use in smalltalk and other languages. Almost all C programs will compile in C++. Object orientation basically means the ability to create classes, and for classes to hide thier internals. Java was invented by Sun. Java, like C# and VB.NET, runs on a virtual machine, it was the first language to claim it could run on any computer, given a VM. This did not turn out to be quite true, the truth was, Java apps tend to run bad ...Show All
