  If I have a System.URI that points to some XAML in another assembly, how can I load that into the Content property of a TabItem I know this is easy in a Frame but I don't need navigation functionality.

• Audio and Video Development Media Compression support

  By supporting the next wave of high performance media, won't there be a need for a new way to compress video/audio streams Our current system is flawed, rendering entire videos into raw streams would require vast amounts of hard drive capacity. I propose a solution to the media storage problem. Given that Media currently is stored in a playable format, meaning you can click it and instantly start playing it in media player, or whatever player you use, why not develop a simple system for storing this content when not in use. Let's get technical, and talk a little bit of math. Let's say you transcode (hexdump) an entire video to a tex ...Show All

• Visual C++ Mixed Mode dll LoadLibrary failure ERROR_DLL_INIT_FAILED

  I have a .NET 2.0 Mixed Mode dll I am attempting to load using the LoadLibrary command from an MFC application. Every time I try to load the library LoadLibrary returns the error 1114 (ERROR_DLL_INIT_FAILED). If I create a new application from scratch and attempt to load this DLL it loads fine.

Has something changed in version 8.0 that would cause this behavior Can anyone suggest a way to debug ...Show All

• Visual Studio VS2005 - Searching other sources for help
