• Software Development for Windows Vista Problem with CryptRegisterOIDInfo in Microsoft "Longhorn" Server Beta2

  When I call CryptRegisterOIDInfo with pInfo parameter pointing on "old-style" CRYPT_OID_INFO structure (cbSize = 28) without pwszCNGAlgid and pwszCNGExtraAlgid members, I get error about invalid parameter. If use CRYPT_OID_INFO with new members (csSize = 36) it's OK. Usually, there are back-compatibility in CryptoAPI for such changes... The repro-example is: typedef struct _CRYPT_OID_INFO_LH { DWORD cbSize; LPCSTR ...Show All

• SQL Server Parameterized Connect String

  Is it possible to define a datasource which has a dynamic connection string based on a report parameter Specifically I'm interested in using the XML data source, but I would like to use one data source for an unlimited number of files (instead of having a separate data source for each xml file).  I was thinking that maybe I could just pass a parameter into the Render() web service method and have the connection string substitute the correc ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System CA1000 and Generic Singleton classes

  Hi everyone: I am developing a library that will provide persistence methods for business objects. The Persistence class is generic because it needs to know about the type of object it persists. (The type parameter to the class is the type of object to be persisted.) However, there is no need for the clients of the library to instantiate an instance of the Persistence class each time an object needs to be loaded or saved. So, I want to ...Show All

• .NET Development 407 Proxy Authentication Required

  Hi All, We currently have an old Win32 (unmanaged) app out there written in VB 6.0 . This is a shareware app that has been around for a couple of years and has been downloaded by a number of users all over the world. This application talks to a managed DLL (a proxy of sorts), which communicates with a Web service . In other words, the managed DLL is really a proxy for the VB client to communicate with the Web service. The Web service is r ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System TFS Source Control Bug

  If you check out a project for editing, add an object (form, control, class), then delete the object for any reason before checking project in, you will get an error that the file can't be found for the check-in process. I need a workaround for this.  How do I check in my changes without that file   The only solution I found was to undo all pending changes which deleted all of my code changes in the project, then check back out and re- ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Serious problems with merging files

  We have found serious problems with working on TFS source control with few branches. Many of changes occasionaly lost after merging files.

• Windows Forms How to display the lookup value in a DataGridViewComboBox in view mode

  When a DataGridViewComboBoxCell is not in edit mode, the value displayed in the cell is from the DataPropertyName I guess. However, I would like to display the looked up value. What I want to attain is that when user looks at the grid, without editing any combobox cells, then the looked up values should be displayed in all of those combobox cells. Usually I would have a lookup table in my database; with an integer column and a string ...Show All
