• Visual C# UOM classes?

  One of the things I haven't seen in the base .net libraries is some kind of unit-of-measure handler. If you're just measuring distances then Unit and UnitType are there and they're okay, but I haven't seen anything for weight or volume or anything. It's one of those things I'd expect to change with CultureInfo, but it looks like it might have been a bit beyond the scope of the base libraries. So I'm wondering if there's something somewhere I can use for this, or if I have to roll my own. My searches so far lead me to believe that unless I want to go the route of some CRM product (which looks like a lot more than I need) I'll hav ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions C++/SDK fails to link empty app

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) What's the soure of this 3D rendering "bug"?

  I've run into some "rendering" problems using Viewport3D. Sometimes pictures tell more (than a 1000 words) so here goes: This first image shows the rendered viewport with a blue "floor" and a red "wall". As you can see, the floor has "spilled" into the wall. http://home.comcast.net/~tlanglo/WinFX/Attachments/WallAndFloor_NotOk.png The second image shows the same wall and floor, but doesn't have the same problem (there's still some problems, though). http://home.comcast.net/~tlanglo/WinFX/Attachments/WallAndFloor_Ok.png And here's the XAML file I used in the example: http://home.comcast.net/~tlanglo/WinFX/Attachments/ ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Ignored breakpoints in the designer

  Hi there I've got the same problem as already discussed here , but without an answer for me, because my workflow is within the application an not in a class library. I created a "Windows Workflow Console" application with a sequential workflow with code separation and added a code activity which prints "Hello World!" to the console (Lesson 1 in the Hands on Labs). I set a breakpoint on the code activity in the designer, but when I'm running the app, the breakpoint will be ignored and marked with a red circle and an exclamation mark. But if I'm putting the breakpoint into the code itself it works fine, only the desig ...Show All

• Visual Studio VCBuild Task and Warnings

  Hello, Can I use the VCBuild task without the output of compile warnings Thanks. Ori, What type of warnings are you seeing from the VCBuild task You mentioned in your earlier post that you are using Beta2.  There have been a lot of changes since Beta2 - especially around the VCBuild/MSBuild integration story, so if you are using the VCBuild task, you will certainly want to get a later relese - preferably the Release Candidate.
