• .NET Development Type.GetType(string) not working after migration to 2.0

  Hi, we are trying to port our (ASP).NETapplication to 2.0/VS2005, and we're running into a lot of problems. We think we are on top of most of them, but we have one that we simply have no clue about, and it happens to be something completely blocking. We use "ajax" techniques extensively. JS on the client uses the xmlHttp component to post an xml document to the url of a page "getXmlData.aspx". The query string includes a fully qualified class name, and we use Type.GetType() to get the Type object and then Activator.CreateInstance() to instantiate it. After converting the solution to ASP.NET 2.0 the GetType() method returns null! At ...Show All

• Windows Forms Displaying DataTable default column values in a new form

  I am wanting to display data in a Windows form from a typed DataSet that displays only one record of data but the data is not displaying - the controls are blank. I am obviously missing a step.

Set the AllowNew property of the DataTable to false. Added the DataSet to the Data Sources window. Created a simple Windows form with 1 textbox and 1 combo box. Dragged the relevant data source items onto the controls on the form controls. What I expect when I run the program is t ...Show All

• Visual C++ notification message from CSliderCtrl when starting to drag

  Hi all, in my application, I have a CSliderCtrl and also one timer. at the timer event, I read the values from an instrument, and refresh the interface, also the CSliderCtrl.

• .NET Development Deal with datas slowly

  Hi: When open DB in SQL EXPRESS or deal with datas in application,that's much slowly than non-DB application,Why How to improve that What's the difference between stored procedures and SQL statements When load datas,DB automatically sort by PK,Can load datas by input sequence Hi, Accessing a database in all platforms is much more slower than accessing the in memory objects that your application creates.

• Visual Studio Team System GetLatest "Force" option in the object model?

  I've read James Manning's comments in this post: http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx PostID=236346&SiteID=1 I would like to be able to offer a force behavior, but this code doesn't give me the results I want: GetRequest request = new GetRequest(localPath, RecursionType.Full, VersionSpec.Latest); GetStatus status = this.workSpace.Get(request, GetOptions.Overwrite); Anybody know a better way Alan, I'm away from my main dev machine at the minute so can't test this.

• Visual C++ c++ compilation strategy

  Well .. this is probably not specific to C++ language. It is a more general question on the requirements of including headers, etc, and so sort of basic, of compilers. I have been looking at translation units and linking, etc. I learnt that there can't be duplicate identifiers in all of the translation units combined. If there are duplicates, it's a linking error. It can be avoided by using extern keyword for all the duplicate declarations of the identifier. Each .cpp file that is included in the project is compiled separately and so results in a compilation unit. The compiler requires that before the code is compiled, the identifier must ha ...Show All
