• Visual C# Passing a string from a C# program to a Win32 C++ dll?

  I week or so ago a few of us on this forum were trying to figure out some problems with using functions within a C# program that were made in a C++ dll, and thanks to some very helpful guys here, we were able to figure it out. However, I am now having a problem trying to pass a string from my C# program into my Win32 dll function. I have tried everything that I can think of, but since I am not all that adept at C# programming, I haven't come up with the answer. In fact, I can't seem to even properly pass a simple char , however int s and long s work fine. I'm hoping that due to my inexperience with C# that one of you C# experts will point ...Show All

  Is anyone else unable to keep the "By default, open new queries in SQLCMD mode" setting after restarting Management Studio.  If I check that box (under Tools -> Options -> Query Execution) it works for new query windows opened during that session, but the next time I start up MS, the box is unchecked again.

• Windows Forms Auto-expanding TextBox?

  Hi, Am I mistaken or is there no automatic way of getting a multiline TextBox to grow as the number of lines in it increases and when the form is resized I'd think something like this would be standard in a mature UI framework like WinForms Many thanks, Jiten There is no built in way to automatically grow the number of lines in a TextBox as you enter more and more text into it. Instead, make sure you have scroll bar support setup. When you’ve got the MultiLine property set to true, also set ScrollBars property to Vertical. As for growing the TextBox when the form is resized, change the TextBo ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista workflow versioning question

  We all have the experience to change the application after it went to production. When WF targets to solve long-run type of business process, the question is while I still have several work instances persisted and now I need to update the flow for a new requirement, whether these persisted instance will be affected. While I guess the answer is sort of yes( I recall someone here answered that if the modified activity has been passed , then no impact, otherwise yes), I'm still looking for some suggestions, for instance, xoml/dll versioning. Besides, if the new version added/deleted some variables, I'm wondering if WF can deserialize the ...Show All

• SQL Server Programmatically developing an entire package..

  Hi all, I am trying to write a program that creates packages on the fly depending on the variables you pass. for eg. It should create connection managers on the fly specific to a certain file in the variable (eg. sample.csv). the package has a dataflow task and it has flat file source and oledb destination.The problem I am facing is the flat file source when assigned to a flat file connection manager(dynamically), it is not giving any source output columns. i.e, the value for DFSource.OutputCollection(0).OutputColumnCollection.Count is Zero. But when I use the same code and reverse the source and destination(oledb as source and flatfil ...Show All

• Smart Device Development urgent: event sent from thread doesn't reach WNDPROC

  Hi guys, I am very confused with this issue: My program (for smartphone 2005) has a polling thread, that under certain circumstances needs to launch an alert and display a popup. So in the thread I do a SendMessage( g_hWndMain , WM_USER , NULL , NULL ); where g_hWndMain is the handle to the main window. I expect the WM_USER event to be triggered, but that just doesn't happen. It seems that having a thread running in loop prevents the system from having the hand on the events etc... as if Windows Mobile 2005 was a monothread OS. I wrote the same program for PC and it just works fine ! I don't know what I can do anymore (except giving up softw ...Show All
