• Windows Forms Reflection permission

  While just starting to sink in .net environment, I've created a user control inherited from DataGrid which resizes each cell for its content to be readable upon resizing. The solution is (I get advised from another Windows Forms) to rely on Reflection to get a reference to hidden method providing the number of data rows in the grid. In the next lines,  ...Show All

• Visual C++ CallByName in C++.

  Hello !   I need answer to a problem.   We all might be familiar with CallByName in Vb.NET and by reflection we can achieve that functionality in C# and Java also [to call a method when its name is given in string] . Do any one know some way of doing that in C++. If some one can possibly help, that would be great.   Regards, Haroon If you're using VC++ (managed extensions or CLI), then you can use CallByName by referencing the Microsoft.VisualBasic assembly.

• SQL Server Connection Pooling

  Is there some way to use only a single connection pool for more than 10 diferent databases You can always turn off OLE DB connection pooling and then roll your own. Add the following to the connection string: "OLE DB Services=-4". (This also turns off automatic transaction enlistment.)

• Visual Studio Team System Major Pain point with Pending Changes Dialog

  There is no select all/invert/deselect all  option.  I have been working on moving artifacts into VSTFS Source Control (Hatteras) all weekend and not having that feature has cost me at least 2 hours of checking or unchecking checkboxes. This is just a variation on the same technique using the keyboard, but in my own usage, i typically use the mouse to select the items i want to toggle the checkbox state on (click + shift-click, and maybe control-click a few others) and then hit the spacebar to toggle the checkbox.  Note that if the selected items are mixed in their selected-ness, the spacebar (just like clicking the check ...Show All

• .NET Development Can I use ZIP files in C#?

  Hi, I've been watching around for a while now but in the end came up with nothing. I want to write an application in C# .NET 2.0 that can handle ZIP files. It must read any files from archives into memory or disk files and create new archives from files on the disk and from memory. I have read and tested the J# article from supposedly 2 years ago but failed with the writing to memory part due to incompatibilities between C# and J#. (That CLR is not so common after all.) Also requiring another runtime for my little tool seems a bit too much. Then I took a brief look at #ziplib but it seems that code isn't even half finished. From th ...Show All

• Visual FoxPro Export data to text- How I can bypass the default text delimitter?

  Dear all, I am exporting data from Visual FoxPro 6.0 to text file, so I use "Export..." in the menu, then choose file type "delimited text". I want the data export to text with field seperator is a bar character ( | ) and no text field delimiter. But FoxPro puts the double quote character ( " ) as default text field delimiter. How can I bypass this double quote character For example: Currently FoxPro exports my data to text in this format: "This is the 1st field "| "This is the second field"|12345|" This is the third field"| But I need that text output without those ...Show All

• SQL Server Fast recovery in SQL Server 2005

  I had a question that no one seemed to be able to answer at the launch event in Detroit. When SQL Server lets me on the database after undo (like Oracle), how does it handle the pages that need to be redo In Oracle, if the process is not at the page that needs redo, it gets that page and brings it to the front of the recovery queue. Obviously, if someone needs the page before it is recovered, it cannot be given to the user, but that need puts that block (or page, not sure how granular it is) right at the start. In SQL Server 2005, what happens Are the pages just not available until they are redone And if someone wants data on that page befor ...Show All

• Visual Basic Database Questions

  I'm fairly new to creating programs that utilize databases. I have just purchased a book about ADO.NET, but I wondering if anyone could offer some opinions on where to start. In particular, what database program should I begin learning Most of the applications that I want to develop will really only need a local unshared database to systematically store and recall information. I would really like to avoid spending a large amount of money on purchasing a database program, so would MSAccess or MySQL be a good place to start Also, where can I find a good tutorial on the basics of building database applications If anyone else has any point ...Show All
