• Windows Live Developer Forums Tankwars screenshots

  I've made some screenshots of the game I'm working on (taken from my sandbox, haven't actually tested in msn yet...) You can see them at http://www.stuffplug.com/tankwars/ I know tankwars isn't exactly "never-before-seen" or "mind blowing", but it's a classic that should be included in every application that supports multiplayer. That's why I set off to code it ;) Up till now I have this working: - random level generation - angle/power choosing - firing - blast pieces from level I still have to do: - wind - destroying tanks - restarting level (cleaning up blasts) - rounds (best out of 5) - better graphics I might put on a working demo la ...Show All

• Visual FoxPro topmost window

  Good day to everyone... My problem is about the active mainform of my application which is top level form.  All settings has already been set, compiled with no errors and deployed at the workstation.  This small VFP program is just to warn me at the server if a certain workstation is already on-line.  But when the user start any on-line games, and I wanted to send message to him, my little vfp program will not show's up at the top of the active windows of games but only at the background. which the user doesn't know if he has a message from me.  Maybe there is something in my code which I miss. Any help is ...Show All

• Windows Forms Bringing controls out from design-time

  I'm using standard DesignSurface for control design in my custom editor and I'm trying to serialize designed controls with my custom serializator that simply recursively parses the root component and emits custom serialization data for each and every component. The problem is that some components contain objects that were created by their designers. For example, the MenuStrip in its Items collection has a DesignerToolStripMenuHost object that is used for designing menu items. My serialization process cannot generically differentiate these design-time objects from real ones. The solution could be to remove the components from design-t ...Show All

• SQL Server Wait for Recieve Fails to recieve message when called from .Net sqlClient

  I have been building out an application and Service Broker has been working great but I have this one nagging problem. There are some scenarios that involve users waiting for a response so I call a stored procedure that sends a message on a service and then waits for a responses on the conversation handle on which it sent the request. When I call the stored procedure from a query window inside management studio it works perfectly. When I call it from a .NET application it times out waiting for the response.  If I set a long timeout I can see that the response   was returned and is sitting in the queue but the waitfor receive just ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System How to associate a .testrunconfig with tests run from the IDE?

  I've got a localtestrun.testrunconfig file that I've modified to run pre-test and post-test tasks. When I run my tests from an automated build process, like this: MSTest /testmetadata:Foo.vsmdi /runconfig:localtestrun.testrunconfig /testlist:UnitTests everything works correctly. That is to say, my pre-test tasks run before testing begins, and my post-test tasks run after testing is complete. However, when I run/debug these same tests within the IDE, neither of these steps is performed. Instead, only the DLL containing the tests themselves and any DLLs the tests are dependent on get copied over to the deployment dir. How can I associate the . ...Show All

• .NET Development XSLT Extensions

  I was browsing through a Java BPEL parser, and it used XSLT to covert the XML to 'class' objects. I understand that part of this is in the namespace declarations: xmlns:java = " http://xml.apache.org/xslt/java " xmlns:pu = " class:com.ibm.cs.bpws.parser.ParserUtils so that this works: < xsl:variable name = " cs " select = " java:com.ibm.cs.bpws.model.CorrelationsImpl.new () " /> But how do I accomplish the same thing in .NET I found a great article explaining how to call you own custom methods/properties: http://www.csharpfriends.com/Articles/getArticle.aspx articleID=64 ...Show All
