• Visual Studio Team System Q: How do you Filter system generated cs files(such as class.designer.cs) in FxCop?

  Anyone tried using FxCop that is capable of disregarding system generated code (cs files such as class.designer.cs) You can suppress individual violations within the generated code, however, there is no way to ignore all generated code. Although, Code Analysis in Visual Studio does shutdown noise on members marked with CompilerGeneratedAttribute and GeneratedCodeAttribute. What exact violations are you trying to ignore I ask this, because at the moment we are starting to work with other teams within Microsoft to clean up warnings within generated code.   ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. I need some spiritual DirectX guidance.

  I've been learning from a book titled Tricks of the Windows Game Programming Gurus by Andre' Lamothe. It's outdated using DirectX 7.0a SDK, and I believe his second volume creates software rasterization with DirectX 8.0 SDK. I really enjoy his books because it is very in depth and low leveled. My question is should I continue reading it if I'm geared on becoming a professional in graphics Since 60% of our life is maintaining and upgrading previous games/multimedia, especially MMORPG games that have a long life, you'd be working with older SDK versions, no matter if it's DirectX or not. The idea is to learn this now and migrate over to D ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions printing MSchart in VB2005

The error code is 0xc0000005. This error may be a bug in the CLR or in the unsafe or non-verifiable portions of user code.

• Software Development for Windows Vista How to load workflow assembly from a specific directory?

  Our application generates workflows programmatically. Since the number of workflows (DLLs) can be quite large we would like to store the DLLs in a special folder so that they are not mingled with the application files. The problem is that when the application tries to execute a workflow, the runtime cannot find it. I have seen similar questions and the recommendations were to put the workflows in GAC or program folder. If we were to put them in GAC, it means we need to sign them, register, unregister, etc., which will degrade performance (and we do not want to fill GAC either). Another suggestion was to include the private path in the .confi ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista ASP.NET And a State Machine Workflow

  I recently read the MSDN magazine article, Windows Workflow Foundation, Part 2 (http://msdn.microsoft.com/msdnmag/issues/06/04/CuttingEdge/), where Dino Esposito demonstrates how to work with workflows in ASP.NET. Dinos' demonstration provides a helpful solution to working with Sequential workflows; however, it left me a little confused with how to work with a State Machine workflow. In the article, Dino demonstrates how to pass parameters to a Sequential workflow by using a Dictionary object, which is then passed as a parameter to the CreateWorkflow() method. The problem is that State Machine workflows pass parameters throug ...Show All
