• .NET Development Windows Services (!Web Services), ASP.NET and RPC

  Hi I am creating a system that allows users to log into a web site and record video from a web cam. As part of its functionality it should allow recordings to be scheduled so they start at a certain time and date. The system should be asynchronous and not require a user to be logged into the web site. My proposed solution was to use a Windows Service and and ASP.NET web site. All the proposed system components will be on the same machine. The website should remotely call a function in the windows service to schedule a time and date(i.e. add the time and date to some sort of queue). 1. Is the solution I propose logical ...Show All

• Visual Studio Setup freezes when it "installs components".

  Trying tor install vs05b2 , the "setup is loading installation components" bar freezes at 100%. CPU usage is 0%. I must reboot machine to stop setup. I had instated the Feb CTP but I think I uninstalled it. I hoped installing the b2 framework would solve the problem. It did not. I had a successful install on another machine with the same media.    I get the same problem when I try to install Web Express 05b2 .

• Smart Device Development Deployment

  Hi, I would like to deploy my VS 2005 CF2.0 Pocket PC application but I don't know how. I found a good article called "Developing and Deploying Pocket PC Setup Applications" at http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp url=/library/en-us/dnppcgen/html/netcfdeployment.asp  which decribes how to deploy VS2003 Pocket PC applications but I'm struggling to apply it to VS2005.  One issue is VS2005 seems to be missing "Build Cab File" on the Build menu. Please could someone point me in the right direction. Thanks in advance. Craig Harrison To get a shortcut: 1. In the left pane of the install UI ...Show All

• Visual C++ Tips for speeding up debugging (stepping through code)?

  I've got one particular large C++ project that, in VC 2005, when stepping through code in the debugger, it takes approximately 2 seconds for each hit of the F10 key (i.e. each line of code) to be executed. I've tried many things to attempt to speed it up: disable intellisense, renaming feacp.dll, removing all additional output windows, watch, breakpoints, etc, removing navigation bar from text editor window, disabling anti-virus on the machine, closing all other apps. It's always the same speed. Running on a dual P4 2.8 gig with 1 gig of memory, and hyperthreading enabled. Are there any other tips for speeding up debugging in the ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System TFS to do Builds and Test vs Manual process.

  So we have this debate going on here at work. The debate is this: In regards to doing a build and running a visual studio test package, all TFS provides is an interface to information and scripts that CAN be compiled manually. So is this true Is there anything the build and test process in TFS gives you that you cant get manually running the tests in Visual Studio and doing the builds command line I am not talking about other features in TFS, I am only talking about builds with MSBuild and Testing. Thanks in advance for your answers! Hi Rob! Running tests as part of the build process gives you several advantages over runn ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Unable to publish start/finish dates and duration time for work items to MS Project files

  When viewing work items within Team Foundation server for a particular project, I attempted to publish my work items to a MS Project file. When the MS Project file is created the Start and Stop time for the work items is not transfered to the MS Project. Instead the start/finish date for any task is the current date with a duration time of 1 day. Why will the start/finish dates, duration time assigned to the work items not transfer to the MS Project Please advise. Also, if I go the other way, meaning I define my MS Project schedule dates for all tasks and them convert the MS Project to work items, the start/finish date for each t ...Show All

• Visual Basic VB program, logic problem, banging head against wall :/

  Hi, been working on this for several days now, can't seem to solve this problem and am starting to think that I am not thinking about it correctly. I am building a program for kids in the family to use to help them memorize their multiplication tables, its basically a flashcard program. First thing they get is the starting form, where they choose the number of problems to work through and which tables to use, and there are 12 check boxes to choose them, 1 to 12. This is so they can focus on a certain set if they need to, like maybe just the 9s or 7s, 8s and 9s, etc. Fine up to this point, here comes my problem :) I am parsing the checkbox ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System TFS Source Control Remote Working

  Hi, I hope I am missing the obvious, but I can't find any info on how TFS will work for remote workers. I know that it will work fine for those connected to the office network via VPN or such, but what about remote users who only have standard internet access I was under the impression that there was some kind of web access, but I can't find any details anywhere. I imagine there has to be some serious setup if this kind of external access through to a TFS server running on a corporate network so if anyone has any info, please let me know!
