• .NET Development OutOfMemoryException and Garbage Collection doesn't work how I thought it would

  I designed this code snippet to test garbage collection.  It doesn't do what I thought it would do though.  The idea was to allocate a chunk of memory, but to discard the reference to that chunk by letting the variable that holds the reference fall out of scope.  When it runs out of memory on the heap, I expected the garbage collector to run automatically and that the allocation would succeed.  But there are a couple of weird things that happen.  First, here's the code: while ( true ) {     int successes = 0;     try     {       & ...Show All

• Windows Forms dataGridView - RowHeader slection problem

  If I select a row in my dataGridView by clicking on it or by navigating to it by kexboard arrows - the appropriate rowHeaderCell is also selected and an arrow appears in that row. However, if I select a row in my code via dataGridView1.Rows .Selected = true ; the row is selected but the appropriate rowHeaderCell does not display the arrow in that row. Instead, the arrow is displayed in the row that was selected before. How can I move the arow in my code Tnx for all the answers.

• Visual C++ How do you develop an interface for an existing C++ program?

  Hello Everyone, I have a large and complex program, which to be honest I dont fully understand, that I have to develop an interface for. I understand how the program works to an extent, but the level of C++ used in the program is way beyond me. It has to do with genetic programming, programs writing programs, so I dont think that im going to be learning how to do that anytime soon. Although I am alot better with VC++ than C++ and can comfortably develop simple interfaces to perform a variety of functions. I have been working my way slowly through sams VC++ for beginners and have learned quiet a bit, although I am still mos ...Show All

• SQL Server Cursor with parameters?

  Hi, I'm kinda stuck with my function I'm creating. I want to iterate over a cursor in a cursor. I've found an example in the documentation of SQL server. The iteration is no problem for the first cursor, because that cursor is built up with a plain sql-statement with no parameters...however the second cursor should be executed with parameters which were fetched from the first cursor. I'm coming from Oracle and there it's very straightforward. Come'on you can't be serious SQL server isn't capable of working with cursors and parameters Maybe I'm just doing it wrong Help SQL Server uses cursor based ...Show All

• Visual C++ ClassView - missing classes

  I have a project with ~250 classes and some of them are not displayed in the class view. Sometimes a class that I haven't touched for ages disappears. Sometimes a class that was not displayed - miraculously appears in the ClassView. If I add the .h and .cpp file of a class that is missing in the ClassView to another project - the class appears in the class view. But removing and then adding the files in my current project does not help. I am using Express Beta 2 Am I the only one who has such problems P.S. I am not posting this as a bug report cause this is hard to reproduce without giving my whole project. ...Show All

  Those fields are disabled by default, and I would like to make some reports if I finish for example a task after the finish time.

Type in the tool name at a command prompt and you would see their usage. Hope this helps. Rahul (wannabe MSFT) ...Show All
