• Smart Device Development Disable Cert Check on WM5

  I am trying to ActiveSync over SSL, and can't get it to work. I have a feeling its because of the cert check like in PPC 03. I tried to run the same util in cradle mode, but it errors out. Does anyone know the actual registry key added/modified to disable cert checking on WM5 TIA In your post you mentiont that you "deleted the partnership id" What is the partnership id and how do you delete it. Thanks Tim ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Start Workflow Performance issue

  I am timing the different aspects of WF execution and found one strange performance issue when starting a workflow. I have a simple workflow with three sequential code activities with only one print statement in each. I start many instances of this workflow in a loop from the main program (Program.cs). I measure the time just before I start each workflow (using workflowRuntime.StartWorkflow) and then pass in that time as a parameter to the workflow. I again measure the time in the first line of the first code activity. I expect this time to be close to 0 ms most of the time. However, this number varies a lot all the way from 0 ms (about 70- ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Is the pseudo SQL syntax necessary?

  Current LINQ syntax is like this: var upperLowerWords =         from w in words         select new {Upper = w.ToUpper(), Lower = w.ToLower()}         where w.StartsWith("a"); But I think that this is unnecessary breeding of C# with SQL. I believe that combination of methods with lambda calculus would be better: string[] words = { "aPPLE", "BlUeBeRrY", "cHeRry" }; var selectedWords = words.Select(    w => {return w.StartsWith("a")} ).Collect(    w2 => {return new {      Upper = ...Show All

• Visual FoxPro Good references for a beginner?

  I've already done most of the sample walkthroughs and read the documentation that comes with VFP9, however I still feel as if I'm lacking understanding on the bigger picture. Could someone please cite some good reference material for a beginner in both programming and VFP9 Also, when looking for reference materials, how different is VFP9 from VFP8, 7, etc The reason for my asking is that I found some suitable books online but they're written for outdated versions of VFP. Would they still be just as helpful, or a waste of time Your input is greatly appreciated!   Marcia maybe, but not me. Excuse me, but as I recall, you are ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Uninstalling Beta 2

  Hi all, I'm having trouble getting Visual Web Developer Express 2005 installed because I'm having problems uninstalling Visual Web Developer Express and SQL Server Express (both Beta 2). I can't install the full new version until I get these off my computer. I try uninstalling it by going to the Add/Remove programs in the CP, but always get a message when I try and remove SQL Express or VWD Express that says that "Setup Failed." I then click on the help button thats available and it says that the file 'setup.rll' is what is generating the message. Also the event type listed: 'sharedsetup\sharedsetupactions.cpp' I'm figuring restoring VWD ...Show All

• Visual Basic How secure is a ClickOnce app from prying eyes?

  I've just started reading up on ClickOnce deployment and it seems like a good option for applications with a straightforward installation.  The question that springs to mind for me is the security of the application.  I don't mean is the system being installed to going to be secure from the application doing Bad Things, but is my application going to be secure from the user trying to reverse-engineer it. I know that ClickOnce applications are installed to a "secure sandbox", but what exactly does this mean   I've done some searching around and can't find out if the secure area is meant to, so to speak, just keep my a ...Show All

• .NET Development Empty Strings, Nulls, & Datasets Events

  VS 2005 Windows Forms Application SQL Sever C# Is there any "built-in" way to set fields in a Dataset to null if their value is an empty string (""). In Delphi, there is a component known as the TQuery. This component represents a set of data returned by a select statement. In design time, there are 20+ Events that a developer can place code into. For example: BeforePost, AfterInsert, BeforeDelete, OnPostError, etc. What does this compare to in VS 2005 I do not need any detail, please just point me in the right direction.

• Visual Studio Really Frustrated With VS 2005

  I posted earlier about the fact you cannot get a copy of VS 2005 Pro even though the "launch" was 11/7. I have a Windows app I built using the VS 2005 Beta 2 that I need to update but since I downloaded the new Express editions (thinking they would work - wrong!) all the Beta 2 stuff is gone. OK, I went to my other system (Win XP SP2) and figured I'd install the VS 2005 Beta 2 there and use that until someone decides to "really" release VS 2005 Pro. No Joy. The install completed saying that it couldn't install all componets - it listed some like J# (which I never use) as failed installs. I deided to do a Repair/Reinstall - that al ...Show All

• Smart Device Development Connect Grayed Out

  I'm trying to set up the Microsoft Device Emulator for testing some handheld applications we use here. I downloaded and installed the MDE just fine, and I can open up all of the the emulator images. The problem is, I can't connect it to my PC. When I right click the device in the manager, the connect option is grayed out. I'm not sure why, as I couldn't find anyone else who seems to have had this problem. Any help is greatly appreciated.

• Software Development for Windows Vista interactive services

  We have an existing interactive app that performs communication between the UI and a Windows service (both directions) via windows messaging and the manipulation of the interactive desktop. Our service creates a window in winsta0/default. The UI is running in winsta0/default. Yet, on Vista, the UI fails using FindWindow() to get the service's window handle. I've verified at runtime that both the thread creating the service's window and the UI thread are indeed running in winsta0/default. This all worked fine prior to Vista. We're currently running Vista build 5308. I understand that Microsoft is recommending that developers not use int ...Show All
