• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Modal "something" in browser app

  (I know this is a bit off topic…) I want to make my own modal dialog using a CustomControl or Popup with buttons. But how can I stop program execution and wait for a button to be pressed I mean something like this: public class MyOwnDialog: CustomControl { public static DialogResult OpenDialog(string question) { //Add control to window, and hook op buttons. //But how do I wait for button clicks } } Usage: private void OnDeleteCustomer(object sender, ExecutedRoutedEventArgs e) { if (MyOwnDialog.OpenDialog(“Delete customer ”) == DialogResult.Ok) { … } } Hope someone can come with an example or point me to a helpful webpage ...Show All

• Visual Studio What VS SDK to use with the VS2005 RC1?

  What Visual Studio SDK CTP should I use with the VS 2005 RC1 I've tried with Visual Studio SDK September CTP but problems occured... Thanks in advance, Daniel Hi Daniel,    Yes, please try this on a clean system. Alternatively, you could simply "reset the experimental hive" from the Start Menu and rebuild your package. It sounds like the registration for VS got messed up at some point. In any case VS 2005 RC + September 2005 VS SDK is a valid (and tested) combination. Thanks, Aaron Marten (MSFT) Visual Studio SDK Team ...Show All

• Visual Basic third-party installer for choice

  Does vb.net express offer a way for the developer or user to decide where an app would be installed or is a third-party installer necessary If so, any recommendations   McWhirter wrote: Thats good to know I was just whining to myself yesterday that the product comparison listed clickonce for the Basic Edition. I didn't wanna have to fork out the money for Pro. Now i might be happy :) Yes, I was pleasently suprised to find that out too.

• Windows Forms Embedded Resources And Release Builds

  Hi, I have a solution with multiple projects linked by project references. When I build in Debug mode everything works perfectly but in Release (with opitimize code ticked) I encounter errors when trying to access embedded resources. If I untick the optimize code option in my projects and build a new release, it all works fine again. So, my question is. What can I do to make my release build work with optimization and embedded resources I know this is a bit vague, but is there any known issues with the optimizer Is there anything I can do to narrow down the problem Any advice would be great. Thanks in advance Andy ...Show All

• Visual C# Application.Exit Event

  I know ive asked this question before but I really didnt get what I was looking for. How would I put this in code. if (application.exit == true) { directory.Delete("C:\hello.txt"); } The first thing I can think of would be catch your main form closing. Let's say your main form is just called Form1. Let VS create the handler stub for the FormClosing event, and in that you can do this: private void Form1_FormClosing(object sender, FormClosingEventArgs e) {     if (e.CloseReason == CloseReason.ApplicationExitCall)     {         // If you're trying ...Show All

• Visual C# C#!!!!!!!!!!1

  Hi, I am a newbie in C# programming.( though was using COM,Win32 earlier!) I try to explain the current problem, which I am facing- 1.I have a ATL dll(VS6) and a C# program(which refers to a web page...VS7). 2.I run C# CLR from this ATL dll. 3.So C# is caller program, which calls ATL dll's signatures. 4.Though I have added refernces to this ATL dll, in my C# prgram, but thread fails on ATL dll as well as C# program, as soon as it tries to enter in that dll. .Above things are working fine if I use vb6 as client, instead of C#. What might have been going wrong, lost and confused in this Any help regarding this(with a small example) would be ...Show All

• Windows Forms Removing optional groups between versions

  I have an optional group of files, that have been deployed but are no longer needed in the new version(s), so I would like to now remove the optional group so the files don't continue to copy over and over again which are about 6mb. Second, what happens to the optional group if I remove it from the deployment manifest on the clients PCs Does it have any effect between like (v1 +group) and (v2 -group), or maybe does that answer my first question. TIA. Patrick The answer to you first question is yes, you can remove the optional group from the next version and the new version will not download those files. Not sure what the second s ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) IconBitmapDecoder can't read irregular icon sizes

  Not a very critical problem but the System.Windows.Media.Imaging.IconBitmapDecoder class seems to read icons that have irregular sizes (e.g. 12x12) incorrectly, offsetting pixels in the bitmap. Seems to only read square icons with power-of-2 dimensions (e.g. 16x16, 32x32), etc. Would you mind sharing some of these icons with us Please zip them and email to robertwl_AT_microsoft_DOT_com. ...Show All

• Visual Studio VSS 2005 and specific OS level requirements

  While deploying VSS 2005 (client) we discovered that it requires Windows XP SP2 or Windows 2000 SP4. Several of our machines do not meet this requirement and the person responsible for PC desktops does not want to simply upgrade those machines using Microsoft's standard upgrade patches. Are there any workarounds for installing VSS 2005 on Windows XP SP 1 or Windows 2000 SP3 Thanks! Hi Bob, I doubt very much that you can work around Prerequisites that setup requires. I just sent an email to the setup team to confirm it for you. It is a good security practice to install the latest patches though.... ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Probably stating the obvious here...

  I am making a game using visual studio .net 2003 with directx 9 2005 update.  I create a deployment project with visual studio that includes all directx.dll files and other detected dependancies.  I deploy the game to the computer on which it was developed and it works fine. Now I want to test the networking so I deploy it to a laptop.  The laptop is running windows xp with SP 2 (so .net framework is there obviously)  I also installed latest runtime on this laptop. When I try to run the game, it says: "Application has generated an exception that could not be handled" It may be that the game itself is throwing some ki ...Show All
