• Visual Basic What is the difference between <Me> and <MyBase>?

  I have noticed that the VB .NET compiler/IDE allows both the <Me> and <MyBase> keyword in some situations.  The situation I am talking about here is the following: you have a base class and a class that derives from the base class.  When you are coding in the body of the derived class and you access one of its own members that was actually defined in the base class (an inherited member), you can use both the <Me> and <MyBase> keyword. Is there some subtle difference here   Or maybe it is just a good coding practice to use <MyBase> to have self-documenting code.  You can later on see that t ...Show All

• .NET Development Problem with WSDL file of a web service

  Hi all, I wrote to web services, and generated the WSDL file of each one. The two web services simply connect to Access database and return the retrived data from the Database. The strange thing is, the WSDL files are different according to the tages and body. The bad WSDL file I got is: In the first one I got wsdl before each tage name, e.g: Instead <wsdl: message name =" GetPylonByFillerSoapIn " > I got here < message name =" GetPylonByFillerSoapIn " > < xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" > - < definitions xmlns:http =" http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/wsdl/http/ " xmlns:soap =" http://schema ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System TFS Security Question

  I'm using TFS beta 3 refresh . I'm trying to figure out what permissions should the various groups that use TFS should have and how to crate them. I read the help online that come with TFS and found some discrepancies between what the help says and what the TFS actually does. Examples: 1) U nder the "Project-level permissions" ( I take it it same as Project Administrators group) section, it states that we can set permissions such as "Administer a build","Delete test results", "Edit build quality", etc. But these permissions don't exist. 2) The help also sates that "When you create a new team project, Team Foundation also ...Show All

• Visual Studio Tools for Office It doesn't install PIA & VSTOR

  Hi! I've followed this guides (1) & (2) for building my VSTO addin for Outlook...but my users reported that they had to manually download PIA and/or VSTOR...the setup didn't automatically downloaded and installed them! What may I check Another thing: before using VSTO, I used to update my installer by changing his version number (in this way, a newer installer would uninstall any previuos version)...but doing so, it prompts me about changing the product code. Doing this in VSTO meant I was UNABLE to uninstall what I created (I had to go through regedit and caspol utilities...)...may I still change the version, WITHOUT changing the produc ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Application Configuration Incorrect

  Hello, This weekend I was programming a game using the Win32 platform SDK (Feb05), Glut and OpenGL.  When I compiled the release edition and tried it on another computer (included all DLLs as per Dependency Walker) it failed with error 14001 "This application failed to start ... application configuration incorrect."

• Smart Device Development Read specific line from a file?

  Hi, Is there a method to read a specific line of a text file The StreamReader class does not seem to have a method to do so. The Peek method isn't what I'm looking for either. Would appreciate your help. Thanks. Will threading help If you know in advance what is the file to be processed, you can start a thread to index it first. I did a simple test program, and indeed, with indexing, reading any line is extremely fast. In my program, if the user wants to read a line that has been indexed, the result is displayed immediately, otherwise, a timer is started to repeatedly check if the line has been indexed.
