• Visual Studio How do you replace the Project Icon?

  Folks, I have written a Mangaed VSPackage with a Project in it.  When the package loads and I create a new project all works well, however, I want to specify the icon that appears beside my project node in solution explorer.  Currently the default icon (i.e.; the one that appears with all of the SDK samples) appears beside the project node but I want to change it (as for example a C# project does).  How do I do this Thanks, Rod Hello Rod, This is controled by IVsHierarchy.GetProperty(). Depending of your implementation, the properties to look for are: VSHPROPID_IconImgLis ...Show All

• Visual C++ Need syntax examples and info for the super set of C++ (managed C++/CLI)

  HI!   First please take it easy on me!! I'm trying to teach myself a little about the super sets of C++.. I have read many books over years on OOP's but I never really took the plunge into the pool to get my feet wet,,, I kind of stuck with VB over the years,,, And now that I got a hold of Visual Studio 2005 Pro I'm ready to dive in head first.. The problem is I can't seem to find any sites that cover the super sets of C++.. I get 5 Million hits on the old stuff that is no longer used cause it is the unmanaged syntax,,,,,,, Even when I find a forum tha ...Show All

• SQL Server SQLCE Query Analyser in Windows Mobile 5.0

  How to use the SQLCE Query Analyser in Windows Mobile 5.0 I have MSPDB.SDF database in WM 5.0. I can't open this sdf file.

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Texture simply duplicates the first pixel

  This is a noob question, but I wasn't sure if it belonged in the beginners or graphics forums. I'm learning DirectX and trying to get textures figured out, but when I load my texture, it just duplicates the first pixel over my entire surface. To let you know in advance, I am using the most recent SDK and Visual Studio 2005 standard edition. Here is my code. "graphics" the first parameter, is the name of my Direct3d device: Bitmap bmp = new Bitmap ( "red.bmp" ); texture = new Microsoft.DirectX.Direct3D. Texture (graphics, bmp, 0, Microsoft.DirectX.Direct3D. Pool .Managed); And later when I try ren ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Problem with Sharepoint Permissions

  Beta 3 has a different process for creating the Team Foundation Sharepoint site.  In beta2 TFS used the default site - in beta3 it creates a different site (containing a port number) in addition to the default site.  When I try to assign permissions in Sharepoint, the Sharepoint administrator only allows me to use the default site (it says the site with port number attached is not in the configuration database).  When I assign a user permissions in the default site, however, those permissions are not being recognized by TFS.  Specifically, people I give admin rights to in Sharepoint are not being recognized as administrat ...Show All

• Windows Forms Bootstraping from MageUI

  Can the bootstrapping that is installing the prerequisites be done from the MageUI I know we can do this using visual studio IDE. However is there any way we can do this using MageUI. Also can the APIs which do bootstrapping be used from other applications such as install shield Regards, Vishal Karnik ( vishy_100@hotmail.com ) Vishal, There is no way to say ‘Create setup.exe’ from MageUI. You can however, create a setup.exe outside of Visual Studio using the GenerateBootstrapperTask and MSBuild. (Doc at http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms164294. ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Frequent Crashes

  I've been working for 2 hours today, and i've lost my data from IDE crashes twice already. (Because the IDE doesn't save data when you run...) My question is, does anyone else have this problem Why do i experience such frequent IDE crashes when i cannot find information on the internet about this. Every single crash that i've encountered was when the program was running, and it ends. Either by pressing the stop button, closing the app manually, or using 'end.' In fact, i can get the IDE to crash every time by pressing a key while it is 'ending' the application. (If the text editor is up, and i inadvertantly push 'h' while its still in ...Show All

• SQL Server SELECT in a table takes FOREVER

  SQL Server 2000, QA Database: A table called Telephone_Directory with just 4.000 records. SELECT * FROM Telephone_Directory is taking forever. If I stop the select after 1 second I see 162 rows. If I stop the select after 1 minute I see again 162 rows. Why this could be happening The same querie on Production Database is taking 6 seconds to retrieve the 4.000 records. That's a bit odd.  First thing I might try is reindexing the table... perhaps there's an error of some sort in the index structures.  Since it's a very small table, reindexing should be very quick.  The ...Show All
