• Visual Studio MSBuild file for .Net 1.0, 1.1, 2.0, Compact Framework 1.0 & 2.0 and Mono

  Greetings, Intro: I'm currently working in a library that has to target both .Net 2.0 and .Net Compact Framework 2.0. My initial approach was to have two projects for each assembly. The source code would be all the same, with #if's testing for the compact or the full framework. One of the projects would have all the files, and the other all the files from the first linked. As the number of source files and assemblies growed, this turned into problematic. At some time, I also wanted to test if my code worked in mono, even if it wasn't required. So I thought of using msbuild to customize my build. I started googling, and found msbuild files fr ...Show All

• .NET Development P/Invoke - importing data

  Dlls can export data as well as functions. However, it seems that P/Invoke does not allow one to import data, only functions. I ran across this trying to access a struct that was exported directly as a global const struct, not through a function. Is this an oversight or intentional design Karl   Yvan wrote: I don't know of a work around, but easy enough to work around; either add a function to the DLL to return the data segments, or use the Windows API via P/Invoke to acquire the data segments. One does not always have control over a Dll. The second option will work on Windows only. Thanks ...Show All

• SQL Server DTC - Transaction context in use by another session

  Hi I have a master package that executes a series of sub packages. The master package is run from a SQL Agent job. The packages are reading from and writing to two databases on the same instance of SQL Server 2005.

The event log shows me: The SSIS Runtime has failed to enlist the OLE DB connection in a distributed transaction with error 0x8004D00A "Unable to enlist in the transaction.". ...Show All

• Visual C# User Control functionality

  hi Can any one clear up my mind when do you really need to add the usercontrol form to your project/solution, what exactly is its funtionality. pls show me few basic samples. When you only need a container, you should use Panel's. But when you want a full functional control that you can use in your whole project and even can be reused in other projects you need to create a UserControl. A Panel is only a contrianer for controls, nothing less, nothing more. You use this to dock some labels, comboboxes etc on your form. But when you build a LoginControl for example, that check usernames and passwords and does some login logic you cr ...Show All
