• Smart Device Development Compiling with Shared MFC DLL support causes CoCreateInstance() to fail

  Compiling with Shared MFC DLL support under VS2005 causes the following CoCreateInstance() call to fail with E_NOMEMORY. Compiling with static MFC support eliminates this problem. We have tried things such as moving the MFC 8 DLL's to from the application-specific installation folder to \Windows on the offending device, and the error still occurs. This error only seems to occur on certain 2nd edition devices (e.g., a Dell Axim X50). It does not occur on a 1st edition device, even when the MFC 8 DLL's reside in the application-specific installation folder. We are using VS2005 to target PPC 2003 at this point.  hr = CoCreateI ...Show All

• Visual C++ Turn off unicode using pragma or something inside the code itself?

  Hello, I'm using Visual C++ 2005 and I was wondering if you can use a #pragma or something inside the code itself to turn off unicode I know you can do it manually from inside the IDE by going to Project->Properties->Configuration Properties->General and there setting Character Set to "Not Set", but I'd like to do it from the code itself if possible. Similar to linking in non-standard libs by doing #pragma comment(lib, libname) (if I remember that one correctly). You could do this :- #undef UNICODE #undef _UNICODE mindcooler wrote: Hello, I'm using Visual C++ 2005 and I was ...Show All

• Smart Device Development Release issue

  I have two issues when I tried to create CAB file for my product. I created a shortcut inside the "Start Menu" folder, but it changed to "Start Menu\Programs" folder automatically after I run the CAB file. Is this the issue of the CAB file or the issue of the Pocket PC (My Pocket PC is ASUS A620 Series, OS is MS Pocket PC Ver 4.20.0 (Build 13252) After I uninstalled my product through ActiveSync (Ver 4.1), the shortcut was not uninstalled, it left in the "Start Menu\Programs" folder, so when I installed it again, it created a "shortcut(2)" icon in this folder, which was not acceptable by my bo ...Show All

• SQL Server The 'A request to send data to the computer running IIS has failed' Exception

  Hi guys, When I do the RDA process, this weird problem comes out. I don't think there is any problem with the connction between the SQLce Server Agent and SQL Server agent. Everytime I run the RDA process, it looks like it is waiting for the time out of the connection. And If I cancel this process and rerun it, it works out and seems there is no problem at all. The conclusion is that, if i start the RDA, 20 or 30 minutes after a previous RDA process, this exception is definitely coming out. BTW, the HResult in the exception is -2147012867. Help...... Cheers, Justin Hi Justin, Seems like as if the previous RDA did not rele ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Binding to an interface as a "data source"

  It would be very nice if the XAML was able to bind to a WCF service and execute methods on that service.  This would save loads of code in applications taking advantage of service-oriented architecture, by providing binding from simple UI to services underneath.  Developing to a service-oriented architecture, you have a business service layer that executes methods and gets back data.  (for example, "get client list", "get user info list", etc.).  A portion of any application is typically a shallow UI layer on top of these services. I've noted that XAML has XML-based data binding using the XmlDataSource tag with ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Using Text

  I found that it would be really useful if I could get the pixel length of any string in DX that I want to display (I'm using 2D) so I can keep it withing bounds of a textbox for example.  Does anybody know a way of doing this If not, does anybody know another way to achieve the scrolling in a textbox Much as I hate to bring further bad news... if you are using DirectDraw for your 2d graphics then note that it is deprecated (i.e its still there but you should avoid using it for new projects) in DX9 so you need to use the Sprite class or draw your own sprites using 2 triangles and a texture.
