• Visual C++ Memory leak in the STL list class

  I apologise if this has already been mentioned but I think I may have found a memory leak in the STL list class. To confirm it I have created a Win32 Console Application called testmemleak. It only has 1 source file, main.cpp, which contains the following: #include <list> #ifdef _DEBUG #define CRTDBG_MAP_ALLOC #define _CRTDBG_MAP_ALLOC #include <stdlib.h> #include <crtdbg.h> #endif void main() { std::list<int> mylist; #ifdef _DEBUG _CrtDumpMemoryLeaks(); #endif } After the program has finished execution a memory leak is detected and dumped: 'test ...Show All

• Smart Device Development Links to files in notifications

  Hi I've just got VS2005 Beta 2 and I really like it. I'm using Visual Basic.  I want to launch an application from a reminder - i mean i want to put a link into the reminder that launches a local application, or, even better, the link is a picture, which picture is on the Pocket PC.  As far as I can understand, reminders are HTML stuff, however, i can't get this thing work. I've tried: <a href="file://\Windows\addrbook.exe"> <a href=\Windows\addrbook.exe> <a href=file:///windows/addrbook.exe> Any many other things, but none of them works. What do I do wrong ... Thanks for the help, KTamas ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Serial port data formats

  Well first off I'll admit to not even looking as yet, but thought I'd pick the mass here as the deadline is two months off yet.. The teem asked a question on Friday about comm ports and VB.net. We have machines that will only understand 7bit ascii.(Old stuff like the programmer) Anything else just won't do. With all the UTF8, unicode, etc. that WinXp uses. Are there any known problems/steps that need to be taken to ensure only 7bit ascii goes out the serial ports thank stubs ...Show All

• Visual Studio Custom editor, property grid commands

  Hi, I'm developing a custom editor and I need to have VS property browser showing my custom commands (verbs). I can do this in the standalone application by passing IMenuCommandService to property grid context (site), but I can't do this while developing VSIP package.

View uses service provider from editor factory (supplied by SetSite method) as its parent provider. I'm using VS2005B2. Any ideas Thank you ...Show All

• Visual C# New code being ignored

  Hi there, I am newish to C# and am having an issue, I am making a code change in one project of a large solution in VS2005. When I attempt to debug the code, a dialog box comes up with the message that 'The source file was different from when the module was built'. I click yes to continue anyway, but the debugger appears to still see the older code. I turned off 'Require source files to exactly match the original' under Tools - Options - Debugger - General, but this just stopped the dialog from appearing. This project is referenced by other projects, with the 'Save local' property to true. They appear to be copying in the correct ve ...Show All
