• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) DLINQ + Intellisense

  Hi, I have installed the DLINQ May CTP but I can't see Intellisense support, I'm running VS 2005 Team Suite. Thanks We have limited IntelliSense support in the May CTP which is installed by default. I am assuming that you did not turn it off during or after installation. Are you using VB or C# Do you see coloring of keywords in query expressions Thanks. Dinesh ...Show All

  Hi everybody, I need to develop a multilanguage application. I don't mean VB & C#. I need one application that provides a german, french and english text. I have done already a ml application.

• Visual Studio Team System Organizing changes into changesets prior to check-in

  Hi all, I've been evaluating Team Foundation's source control capabilities, and have been generally pleased. However, there's one "nice-to-have" feature that doesn't seem to be present, and I want to make sure I'm not missing something. Often, a member of our team will be working on several bugs or features within the same workspace, and will want to manage these changes separately, for example: file1cs, file2.cs - Are bein ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions VB: System.Random not random in For... Loop.

  I'm having a problem where each number generated using System.Random is the same when created in a loop. The code works fine when stepping through, or using one occurance of the GenerateRandom Function, but at full run time in the loop, results in the same value. I am trying to generate 132 numbers between 1 and 5, and pass those results to an array. Here is what I've got so far... The random class is not all that random. I use RNGCyptoSer ...Show All

• Visual C++ VCMAME: compiles with VC2003, fails with VC2005

  I'm trying to build the MAME source using Visual C++ 2005. I'm using the VCMAME project files from http://www.vcmame.net/ . I first built the project in Visual Studio 2003, then opened the project in VC++ 2005 and rebuilt. I only had to make a few modifications to the project, like adding _CRT_SECURE_NO_DEPRECATE to silence a bunch of warnings. However, one of the source files (winalloc.c) implements their own memory handling functions so ...Show All

• Visual C# Get the unicode of string

  Are there any functions in C# such that when I pass a string into the function, it returns the unicode of the string For example, if I pass the string "abc" into the function, it returns the string "616263" (or "610062006300"). Thanks for answering~ I just want to call out that there are two ways to cast Unicode to an array of numbers, and this thread started looking for unicode numbers. If you go to bytes, you may get more bytes than you ...Show All

I'm proposing a design pattern that makes Wait and Pulse as simple to use as ...Show All
