• Visual C++ Why is a kernel usually written in C?

  Hi! I wonder why OS kernels are usually written in C only. After all Windows, Linux and OpenBSD are pure C and assembly in the kernel. Why isn't there any C++ anywhere I know that a part of the answer is the big existing code base, but apart from that what else is it that keeps C++ from coming into kernel development. I know that some basic functions have to be implemented first, so that you can use classes, but once they are there C++ could be used in the code. You would probably get better answeres at the kernel newsgroups at http://msdn.microsoft.com/newsgroups/default.aspx dg=microsoft.public.win32.programmer.kernel&lang=en& ...Show All

• Windows Forms Is there a better way to handle localization?

  Hi, I know that for each form, VS.Net creates a resx file for each culture. When the project grows bigger, the number of resx files will grow too. I am wondering if there's a better way to maintain those resx files. Thanks. I'm not sure there is a single answer to this, it really depends on your project and your organization. There should be little or no impact on performance with one or more files. I haven't measured this, but in theory a look up should be about the same since regardless of the approach you mash it all together in a .dll file. A single file might be easier if you only have a few p ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Suppress CA1303:DoNotPassLiteralsAsLocalizedParameters for all occurrences of a method call?

  I'm using a common method to log messages throughout a class library. In many cases, literal strings are used to included fixed state information in these messages. Is there a way to suppress the CA1303:DoNotPassLiteralsAsLocalizedParameters message for all occurrences of the logging method call throughout an assembly. That is, can I allow literals passed to this single logging method but still have a warning generated for other methods I've tried to use an assembly-level SuppressMessage attribute such as the following, but it does not seem to suppress these messages: [assembly: SuppressMessage ( "Microsoft.Globalization" , ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System TF30144 error when creating a project from another domain

  Hi I am struggling with a setup which consists of TFS single deployed on domain X and Team Foundation Client (and Visual Studio) on domain Y. X and Y does not know about each other since they are on diffrent nets and the DNS servers are not connected. My first problem, which I solved, was that TFS setup (or possibly SharePoint Services or SQL Server) uses computer names in configuration files. Thus, Team Explorer did not work correctly (red crosses on the documents and reports folders etc..) since computer names couldn't be looked up from domain Y. This was solved by adding the IP computer name mapping in the Windows 'hosts' file. &nbs ...Show All
