• .NET Development SOAP = web services

  Is it true that Web Service is equal to SOAP & SOAP is basically web service if so, all SOAP does is use for RPC / RMI to other platform Hi Duncan, SOAP is the protocol, Web services uses SOAP as their protocol (such as HTML is the page, and it uses TCP/IP as a transfer protocol). I suggest you read here: http://www.w3schools.com/soap/default.asp Ido. ...Show All

• .NET Development BeginSend()

  I've looked through the forums and understand that TCP/IP information (such as TCP acks) are inaccessible in .net. My question is, when using the BeginSend() method on .net sockets, at what point does the async callback method get called When the buffer is flushed Is there any correspondence between the async callback being called and TCP protocol events (like acks etc) Thanks guys, that pretty much answers my question. I have already an app-layer ack system :) ...Show All

• Visual C# How to get a client's IP Address

  I have a web app that need to get the client's IP Address. I have attempted several different methods without success. I have pasted the code below. strDNS = Dns .GetHostName(); Session[ "UserIP" ] = Dns .GetHostEntry(strDNS).AddressList[0].ToString(); I believe this will retreive the Server's IP address. strDNS = HttpWorkerRequest . GetRemoteAddress. ToString (); I believe something along these lines should work but VS 2005 erros on build saying "Cannot convert method group 'GetRemoteAddress' to non-delegatetype 'object'.' How can I accomplish this task strDN ...Show All

• SQL Server OLAP Survey 6

  OLAP Survey is open for the participants again for the sixth year. OLAP Survey is conducted by Nigel Pendse - probably the most respected and influential analyst in the OLAP industry. Microsoft studies the detailed results of this survey every year (although it doesn't publish PRs about the survey's results - which is a shame, since Microsoft scores very well in this survey every year). This year, though, is especially important to us, since it will be the first time when we will be able to study the results for Analysis Services 2005. AS2005 has been on the market for more then half year now, we already shipped SP1 last month (and some orga ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Resources for Beginners

  Good day fellow developers, Being a 4GL database developer for over twenty years, I've now decided to break into the Web development world and have a simple question maybe you can help with. I'm running Visual Web Devloper and SQL Express setup, and am very familier with SQL 7.0. I would like to know what resources would be the best starting point to begin to understand HTML, XML, ASP, and .NET logic. Having read the associated manual "Build a database NOW", a few things like the editor, and functionality of the objects are confusing. You can't seem to "highlight and move" objects in the editor, and trying to understand t ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System About Security

  When we add some user to the contributors group (assuming we're using default security policy and groups), he gains autonomy do change any project's work item, right Is there a way to limit the control of the user just over the workitems the he is responsible (that he created or is currently assigned to) I think project administrators need autonomy over the whole project, but giving that to any contributor can make a mess (even with that detailed history TF offers).

• Visual Basic Transfering finished .exe files on VB6!

  When i save a finished file to .exe format, and send it to other people, when they try to run it, and it cant find the files (such as pictures, music etc...) on their computer and it doesnt run! I know this is because it cant find the file directory, but how do i send the file so that other people can run the program on their computers Cheers Well, one method would be to store the exe file in a folder, the store pictures/music etc in folders contained within that folder, this would allow you to use the app.path to automatically find out the directory that the exe is stored in, then use that plus the ...Show All

• Visual C++ Pointers & Linked Lists

  I'm working on a Win32 Console Project and have run into a problem that hopefully someone can point me in the right direction. Here's an idea of what is going on. Let's say I have a linked list class named "myList" and a node class "myNode", what I'm trying to do is now have a linked list of linked lists (so in effect, a list of myLists). Let call the list of lists by the class name of allLists. I have the linked list and node implemented, each node containing a randomly generated number but I want to have a linked list of a so that I can manipulate a pointer that points to each list.

• Visual Studio Team System TF30063: You are not authorized to access <tfsservername.site.company.com>

  We have set up TFS Beta3 at work on our company domain.  I am testing connecting to it from home on a VPC using VPN to get into work.  My VPC isn't on the domain.  So when I connected I got a Windows logon dialog box which I filled in and I also checked the box to have it remember that logon info.  Now if I try to execute TF.EXE commands while VSTS is running I get an error message but some of the commands seem to work e.g.: ! tf status TF30063: You are not authorized to access <tfsservername.site.company.com>. There are no pending changes. Yet this command doesn't: ! tf hist Foo.targets /noprompt TF30063: You ar ...Show All

• SQL Server ERROR: The cabinet file 'Sql.cab' required for this installation is corrupt and cannot be used

  As the title indicates, I'm having this error during installation. It occurs when I try to install the "Management Studio" part of the program. I've tried a bunch of things like copying to hard drive and installing, but to no avail. To isolate the problem, i've even tried removing Reporting services, since at the time of failure it seems to be trying to install/configure the Microsoft.Reporting Services dll. Additionally, I have SQL Express installed (installed it separately, not as part of the SQL 2005 DVD), VS 2005, .NET Framework 2.0, SQL Management Studio Express CTP. Could the Management Studio Express be causing a problem ...Show All
