• Windows Forms ClickOnce - Internet zone

  I have developed an application which requires full trust but I am also interested to make a stripped-down version of it which will run in Internet zone (without elevating the permissions or adding the site to Trusted sites). From what I have read, the UIPermission for this zone is SafeSubWindows - this means I am restricted to design the application as a control embbeded in a HTML page  If yes, how is it possible to run the application in offline mode (how can be launched from the start menu without network connectivity if the application is displayed in the browser ) Or is the Internet zone is restricted to online mode ...Show All

• .NET Development How to call a web service without adding a web reference...

  Hi Guys, Hopefully this is a fairly simple one... I need to call a web service from a c# class without actually added a web reference to the project. Obviously I need to handcraft some HttpRequests and interpret the responses manually, just want to know the best way to achieve this. Is there any base class in the framework that'll have a URL property and a method such as CallWebMethod(methodName, param object[] parameters) Did do a search, but couldn't find anything that was quite what I wanted to achieve. Thanks in advance, Simon. Ok, I've got the base class I was talking about! I have this ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Unable to call a target from overidden CoreCompile

  Hi, I would like to perform a specific target just before each solution is compiled. Unfortunatly, team build performs a build including all solution in an atomic MSBuild call. To correct this behavior, I tought I could overide the default CoreCompile with my own version, in order to call a private target just before each solution is built. However, I can't get CoreCompile to call my target. Wondering what is wrong, I tried overloading CoreClean... and it worked beautifully! Questions: 1. Is there anything special about CoreCompile 2. What is the purpose of the constant _TEAM_BUILD_ defined just before CoreCompile 3. Is the ...Show All

  Hello everybody, perhaps a silly question, but there's a way to create a Database Project from an existing DB (e.g. Northwind :)), adding Schema Objects, and then "commit" them to the DB If so, IMHO it should be added to creation wizard. If not, there's a "quick" way to create a Schema Object (e.g. a stored procedure), and insert it in a target DB OK, as not said.... :) http://blogs.msdn.com/camerons/ ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Form Features

  XPS sounds like a great alternative to "other products" like PDF. Does anyone know if XPS will have any form capabilities. For instance, would I be able to print a form (like a contract) to XPS and then add fields on it to gather data The advantage over an "application" or web page is that the XPS document would like exactly like the paper version. There are no forms features planned for V1 of XPS. Regards, -Jesse McGatha XPS Program Manager ...Show All
