• Smart Device Development Debugging without ActiveSync -unable to get Visual Studio 2005 to cooperate

  Hi all, I've been trying to debug a Windows CE 5.0 based device with VS 2005. Since this device doesn't have a full serial port or USB client port available, I've turned to debugging without ActiveSync (I did try merging in some AS partnership information from another device into the registry, but haven't quite gotten AS to connect.) I've used the instructions pointed to elsewhere, e.g. http://blogs.msdn.com/vsdteam/archive/2005/04/ ...Show All

  I need to populate a container with an indeterminate number of label/textbox pairs for input. Since it is indeterminate at design time, I thought I'd create a user class with both a label and at text box in a pair so I could create them at run time and populate the labels appropriately from a data file. I need to validate each text box for numeric value. Then, I need to use that value to build up a subtotal on the form...sort of like this: ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Lambdas in Custom Attributes

  I want to pursue the concept of embedding lamdbas in custom attributes. It is not supported today to my knowledge but I believe could be very valuable for DLINQ and more.  public class Customer {   [Association((c, o) => c.CustomerID == o.CustomerID && o.Status == OrderStatus.Incomplete)]   public Order[] IncompleteOrders; } I believe that a syntax such as this would generalize the join conditions that are sup ...Show All
