• Visual Studio Breaking change in RC C# compilation

  In all versions of the IDE prior to VS8 RC C# build employed interfaces provided by cscomp.dll shipped with .NET framework. Our company uses internal tool that integrates VERY smoothly as preprocessor into the build process by thunking interfaces in cscomp.dll. Compilation options, error reporting and debugging transparency are achieved with minimal coding. Now, it seems, RC has its own copy of compiler in C# package, a ...Show All

• Smart Device Development Debugging without ActiveSync -unable to get Visual Studio 2005 to cooperate

  Hi all, I've been trying to debug a Windows CE 5.0 based device with VS 2005. Since this device doesn't have a full serial port or USB client port available, I've turned to debugging without ActiveSync (I did try merging in some AS partnership information from another device into the registry, but haven't quite gotten AS to connect.) I've used the instructions pointed to elsewhere, e.g. http://blogs.msdn.com/vsdteam/archive/2005/04/ ...Show All

• Visual C++ CRT heap in DLL

  I used to believe that each process has a default heap shared by everybody in the process space including code in loaded DLL and heap manager works as described in http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp url=/library/en-us/dngenlib/html/msdn_heapmm.asp Then I’ve found out that if DLLs are linked with CRT each has own heap manager http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-US/library/ms235460.aspx My questions: how those individua ...Show All

• Windows Forms using applicationsettings/propertybinding to save form size etc.

  I want to be able to save the following: The last position and size of the form when not maximized and the last windowstate. ie if the user closed the app maximized, next time I want it to open maximized, but if the user sets it back to a normal window, I want it to display using the save size and location (as Microsoft Word does).

• SQL Server Multicast followed by a SORT

  Hello, I have a data-flow containing 150000 rows that is taking a long-g-g-g- time to run. The bottleneck seems to be a SORT component. The SORT is immediately preceded by a MULTICAST. Now, all 150000 rows have gone down the other output from my MULTICAST all the way to the destinaton, admittedly very slowly. My SORT is still caching the 150000 rows. I'm wondering if the MULTICAST is causing a problem. Does each output fro the MU ...Show All

• Smart Device Development Compiling with Shared MFC DLL support causes CoCreateInstance() to fail

  Compiling with Shared MFC DLL support under VS2005 causes the following CoCreateInstance() call to fail with E_NOMEMORY. Compiling with static MFC support eliminates this problem. We have tried things such as moving the MFC 8 DLL's to from the application-specific installation folder to \Windows on the offending device, and the error still occurs. This error only seems to occur on certain 2nd edition devices (e.g., a Dell Axim X50). It does ...Show All
