• Visual C# Noob XML Question

  I'm trying to read data from an XML file located at http://www.example.com/example.xml . This file is continually updated (contains 10 node elements whos values change dynamically). Is their a way to establish a persistent connection to this as an XmlDocument and use the XmlNodeChangedEventHandler to monitor the nodes as they are updated Like a socket stream I can use a timer to continually check the file and read the nodes with an XmlReader but there has got to be a better way. Any suggestions are welcome. Perhaps there is a better way to link up to the data that any of you might know about. BTW, to get a better idea of what I ...Show All

• Visual C++ "MFC80D.DLL was not found" Error?

  I have an project that was originally developed as a C++ 7.1 native application.  I converted it to VC++ 8 and kept it a native application and it worked fine.  This project has always made use of MFC as a statically linked library. I now want to make use of the CLR.  The first step in doing this is to change the use of MFC to shared dll.  When I do this (with no other changes) my application gets the "MFC80D.DLL was not found" error.  My project properties are set to create a manifest and  I can see it being embedded at link time.  I tried putting the MFC80 runtime dlls in SYSTEM32 and the application t ...Show All

• Visual C# typedef in C#: Visible in separate projects

  I saw that you could get around the absens of the C++ typedef feature by using: namespace NameSpaceCS {   using Handle = System. Int64 ; or using Handle = System. Int64 ;   namespace NameSpace CS {   But this is only visible in one file. How do you make it visible in other projects. I have added the reference and the  using NameSpace CS ; in my other project but it still seems to be out of scope. The methods in the other project I can use thogh. It's just the typedef replacement that's out of scope. Somebody suggested I should use a property which returns a member of a struct. ...Show All

  Hello, I have two activitites. One exposes a DataSet through a property. A second activity takes a string property. I would like to set an activity reference to the first activity, getting the value of a particular row and column in the dataset.

  In VS2005, I added a MFC DLL project. The default platform is win32 and this project does not have input lib. A very simple boiler plate project with code from Microsoft. Then I converted the project to x64 by setting the platform type to x64. I can see that the target machine type from the Linker option got changed to x64. Then I built the project from VS2005, I got the following error: \ x64\Debug\mfc2.obj : fatal error LNK1112: module machine type 'X86' conflicts with target machine type 'x64' Note that there is no input library and therefore there cannot be a mix of object modules. The only object module is the mfc2. ...Show All
