• Visual C# How do I tell when all threads in a pool are complete

  I have an app that uses a thread pool to ping all hosts on the local network. Each thread updates a listview with the status of that IP - alive or dead. When all the threads are done, I want to remove all the dead links from the list view. How can I tell when all the threads have done their job What is the best way to loop over the listview backwards (I assume backwards is best since the items are indexed...), removing each dead link (text in column 1 = "dead") Thanks in advance. Create an integer that stores how many threads are running. At the beginning of the threads that need to be ...Show All

  Hi all, I am new to Visual Studio Web Test. Does anyone have any experience with ADFS web testing I encounter a problem when the test case (recorded test case) expected result is different from what is being produced by the system.

(I set pre-authentication to "true", and put in the correct username and password). What might be the possible mistake that I ...Show All

• Windows Forms Approaches to getting selected items (so that I can maintain Object Oriented code ) ?

  I'm wondering on the best approach to take to capturing selected items from ComboBoxes, ListViews, etc. Lets say we have a "Company" object which has a property List<Employee> employees; Now we want the user of the application to be able to select Employees from the ComboBox (or ListView) options and have this List<Employees> populated with Employees. What is the best way to populate your ComboBox(or ListView) Ultimately we want a List of selected "Employee" objects, but we can't simply use a List of Employees to populate the ComboBox items since the ToString() method might be displaying all the properties of ...Show All

• Visual Basic How to Read, Write, Modify & Remove Application Settings From Config File Using VB 2005?

  .NET Framework 1.1 provides System.Configuration Namespace which exposes methods for reading information from the config file, but there are no methods for modifying the contents. Is there anyway this can be done using Visual Basic 2005, without implementing a custom class I have already set it up to use this sort of settings setup and I have used the My.Settings.Save() command after having made a series of changes. I set it up so that there are 18 button name and link settings and 5 user name, password and limits (eg is admin sort of things). I get the user name things to work perfectly, which can be changed by an admin. ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Unable to add users to Team Project if using VPN.

• Visual Studio Express Editions No macros in express edition?

  Hello, I'd like to know if it's possible to record, edit, debug and run macros in VC++ Express 2005. I installed the Beta 2 version, but I found no macros management around. Am I missing something Thanks, Piero.

• Visual C++ How to compile without .net?

  Hi everyone. My problem is that if I write an application, it doesn't run on other computers. I've already read other threads about this problem, and there were solutions too: install redistributable packages and/or the .NET framework on the other computer. But I don't want to. I just want to run my program on any computer without installing anything. Like in the old times. Thank you for your support.
