• Visual Studio Team System Saving Document

  When trying to save a document back to Foundation Server for one of the project I don't get an option to save it back to Team Foundation, just the file system. Any Ideas Thanks BenW If you are talking about saving an attached document to a work item back to TFS then we do not provide this functionality in v1. As a workaround you can always delete the existing attachment and then upload the updated one back to the work item. If you are talking about something else, could you please explain what exactly you are trying to do Thanks ...Show All

• Visual C++ Can symbols from an .exe file be imported into a DLL?

  I would like to create an executable which uses multiple DLLs. I want to load the DLL's manually depending on execution. There is common code which resides in the .exe, which I would like to use in the DLLs. When I try and compile the DLLs I get unresolved symbol errors during the link. Is there a way for me to share the common code, residing in the .exe, with the DLLs Thanks. Omar Canon You could pass a function pointer to the DLL but that's kinda nasty. There shouldn't be a reason why this common code couldn't live a DLL, what kind of linker errors are you getting ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions ClickOnce Problems

  I have a small windows test application that I'm attempting to deploy. I can deploy it to my hard drive, transfer it to a memory stick, and successfully install it on another computer. I can deploy it to a website, when the website opens and I click on Run or Install (depending on the type of deployment) a new webpage, myTestApp.application, is displayed. The page is an XML file. That is as far as the deployment goes! There are no error messages and no clues to help me solve this problem. Your suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Hi Grandpa - you skilled user...you.

• Visual C# Output components in C#.NET

  Hi, i am new in C#.NET and I am using Visual Studio 2005. I want to use a graphic component that show the output from an arithmetic operation with variables that I have created. Please, anybody tell me this. How do you mean, a graphical component How do you want to 'graphically' represent the result of 8*2 If you want to draw something like a chart, or a line of coconuts, or anything except text, then you need to do it to a Bitmap, and then display that. You'd create a control and it would intercept the Paint event, and draw whatever you wanted to draw there. If, on the other hand, you just want to output a number, I don't see why yo ...Show All

• Visual C++ Debugger problem "The breakpoint will not currently be hit. No symbols have been loaded for this document."

  I have recently install VS 2005 Pro and I cannot get breakpoints to work properly in my C++ Win32 application. After compiling for Debug and placing a breakpoint, when I run my program the breakpoint indicator becomes a hollow circle with an exclamation point and I see the above message when I hover over it. This makes no sense to me because I have verified the following: 1. Yes, I have compiled for Debug. 2. Output for my program indicates that "Symbols loaded". 3. I see the .pdb file in my \<project>\debug\ folder with the correct build date/time. Curiously, I have created other new projects under VS 2005 tha ...Show All

• Visual C++ WinSXS - what's the right way to go ?

  I have a C# winforms app, but it uses a C++ dll for some image processing stuff. As a result, it needs the C runtime dlls for VC8. I know I need to put the dlls and some other stuff in the WinSXS folders, I'm just wondering if there's any recommended way to do this, rather than just copy them out of my folder into the installer, and back in the same location If that's all I have to do, it seems messy to me. ...Show All
