• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Is MediaElement/MediaPlayer support broken in December CTP?

  I have tried playing around with the MediaElement in both Independent mode and using a MediaTimeline but could not properly control the running Video. I implemented Pause/Resume as well as Stop/Play to restart the Video but both failed to work properly. Both will stop the rendering frame at the instance of Stop/Pause but will never re-render new frames once Resume/Play is called. In both cases the Video sound restarts at the beginning and only starts to re-rendering frames after it hits the frame location I paused the Video. In the case of playing the Video to the end I get the MediaComplete event and it shows the last frame ...Show All

• Windows Forms DataGridView Columns Reflecting User's Checkbox Choices

  Hi everyone, First off, I am able to reflect the user's dropdown box selections.  These selections act as the "where" clause in the select statement.  However, the problem I'm currently facing is having the DataGridView columns reflect the user's choices with checkboxes (which are not on the DataGridView).  In other words, I would like the user to determine whether or not a field is shown in the DataGridView.   This means that if the user checks the Account checkbox, for example, then the select statement should show up as select Account from datasource where ... group by Account Further, in the ...Show All

• .NET Development Specifying ClientChannel outbound communication Port

  Hey All, Hopefully someone can help here, I have yet to find a solution to my problem. I am using .net remoting in the 2.0 framework.  Everything works fine, but I want to be able to specify what port my client app uses to send messages to my server. Through some digging around I found out about the IDictionary object that the 'server' can use to specify port and proxyPort, but I need to do this for my clientchannel. I am using HttpClientChannel, and HttpServerChannel.  I know someone here can help, the force is strong in this channel :) Brent We use WebRequest in the client channel. I'll move ...Show All

• Visual C++ GDI+ : Drawing objects over TabControl

  Hi, I've been working my way around GDI+ for a couple of weeks now. I made a little application where user can choose among several shapes and then move/place chosen shape using mouse, building this way a customized furniture set. The area where user can place each shape chosen is delimited by a panel control for which I defined the background color as having transparent. Everything is going smooth but... As second step, I added a tab control in order to have in first tab, the drawing area where use can place graphically each piece chosen and a second tab, the estimate or cost list of his customized furniture set.

• Visual Studio Express Editions A VC++ 7.1 Solution in VC 2005 express edition - libraries incompatible?

  Hi folks, I am trying to build a project which uses static libraries compiled using a VC++ 7.1 compiler. The project (solution) was imported from 7.1 to 8.0. I do not see the expected results. I have certain part of code as source code and the rest as libraries. Are the outputs of 7.1 and 8.0 compilers not compatible In other words, can I link libraries generated using VC++ 7.1 into an 8.0 project TIA. Girish Mixing libraries built from different VS versions is not a supported scenario. Thanks, Ayman Shoukry VC++ Team ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Three problems with Team Build: read-only paths, missing include paths and huge checkouts

  Hi, I hope you can help me with this problem: I set up a Team Build-Server. Basically, it works, my small test-project is building fine. But with our real C++-application there are some problems: - Some of our projects are generating libs as output-files and have a common folder set as the folder where the final .lib should be stored. This folder is not under source-control, because it is empty. Now, when one of these projects is built, it tries to create this folder but it fails, because its parent-folder is read-only. I created a work-around and checked this empty folder in. But I think that's not very nice. - Our projects requ ...Show All

• .NET Development Help with detecting a barcode scanner event

  Hi, I am a .NET programming newbie. It is my first time posting here so i apologize in advance if i got the wrong forum. If it is the wrong forum, maybe you could point me in the right direction :) I am developing a desktop Windows inventory application using the .NET framework.

The barcode scanners that are used in the company are not programmed to automatically send a carriage return at the end of the scan.
