• Visual Studio VSS 2005 WebService problem

  Hi hi. I'm trying to use the new WebServices in VSS2005. After fiddling around, reading through the forums and doing some more fiddling I've just given up. The problem is authentication. I can open the share from my computer, open the project from the share (with the non-internet version of the VSS plugin) and open the webservice url from my computer. I've tried doing SSL, but the result is the same. If I directly open a project under source control I get "VSS Web Service could not open the database". *but* if I use Open project.. and then use the "SourceSafe (Internet)" option to navigate to the .sln file in the VSS database and open it - t ...Show All

• Visual J# Why is the J# Redistributable package needed?

  Hi! Why is the J# Redistributable Package needed to run a J# application Or can I just redistribute some assemblies For example, if I develop an application in Borland Delphi using WinForms, I can compile this application to an exe file. This exe file can be executed on any computer that has the .Net Runtime Framework installed. No Delphi .Net Redistributable Package exists. If I develop an application in Dephi using the VCL.NET api all I have to do is to redistribute the VCL.NET assembly. That's easy. No problem here. So the fact is that it is possible to develop a new language for .Net (Object Pascal) and don't require some special in ...Show All

• Visual C# Hosting ASP.Net runtime in Winforms app to display asp.net pages from memory stream

  I'm currently trying to build an application which uses a webbrowser control to display formatted data. The pages I am trying to display might not be found on the harddrive of the local machine: they may be on a server or in a compressed file somewhere. To handle simple html requests I have created an asynchronous pluggable protocol to handle any requests and supply the pages from wherever they might be stored. What I'm trying to do however is display ASP.Net pages. I don't have a web server to use to serve these file so I have to use the winforms application to host the asp.net runtime. I'm managed to implement that and have b ...Show All

  I just finished a sample implementation of how to use db4o (an open-source native object database), and WinForms databinding in the sweetest little app. My database logic is only a few lines of code, and almost everything was settable in design-time with no Visual Studio extensions, O/R Mappers, automated code-writers, etc. Download the application at http://www.everylittlething.net/PartsAssembly Requires nothing but Visual Studio 2005 and db4o. ...Show All

• Visual C# Hi, how do I enforce that the Denominater of a Fraction struct will not be initilized to o on creation?

  since I can't define a parameterless Ctor, the compiler defines one automatically so the denominator will be initialized to 0 and it's undesirable. Hi, You could then add a getter initialization for your denominator variable (dont set the modifier of your denominator variable to public): public struct Fraction {    private int denominator;    public int Denominator    {       get       {          if (denominator==0)          {       & ...Show All
