• Visual C# Should be getting an exception... right?

  I have the following code in a Web Service. I already have a row in the table where Qty, Commod, and CompID equal 0. When I try to insert another row where all are 0 in SQL manager, it gives a primary key error, as excpected. When I run the method below and do the same, it does not catch an exception. It just return true, without ever inserting the new record. I want this SQL exception to be caught, and this method should then return false. Any ideas [ WebMethod ] public bool UpdateInv2( double Qty, int Commod, int CompID) { try { SQLProvider sp = SQLProvider .GetInstance(); sp.ConnectionString = @&quo ...Show All

• Visual C++ Capturing Screen

  Hello, I've been wondering how is it possible to capture the screen in my Visual C++ 2005 Windows Forms application. With Thanks,                     Gal Beniamini. On your keyboard towards the right side there is a button called insert, straight above that is a small button called prt scr/sysrq, push that button to take a picture of the current screen, it saves the image to the clipboard meaning that if you open an advanced word application such as WordPad or Microsoft Office Word then when you paste it pastes the image onto t ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System FxCopCmd and global suppressions.

  I've found some strange behaviour running FxCop from the command line (FxCopCmd.exe) for a project with global suppressions: The global suppressions get ignored after cleaning and rebuilding the solution. Steps to reproduce: (This is with the VS 2005 release candidate.) 1. Launch VS 2005. 2. Create a new C# project (Windows application) named "FxCopCmdTest". Save it to C:\ (for simplicity). 3. Run code analysis on the project. 4. In the Error List there should be 5 warnings. Of these, CA2209, CA2210, and CA1014 do not apply to a source file. Right-click and suppress any of them -- a GlobalSuppressions.cs file should be created. 5. Run cod ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Can/Will beta 2 SCC/WI data be preserved in the GA release

  OK, we're interested in starting to use beta 2 for our next big project, however I need to know if the data we create using beta 2 can be preserved (or at least migrated) in the GA release Does the "go live" license apply to TFS too Dave We haven't been dogfooding it for 2+ year - It's been about 8 months :)  A converter from SourceSafe has been planned from the beginning as you suggest and is available in the Beta. The issue of migrating from build to build has been on the radar for a long time - it's just that it's a tricky problem to solve while the schema is still so much in flux (and it was at the time we snapped the sou ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System How do I derive from TestContext class and implement from base members

  So, I see a lot of people are looking at this. But no one is responding to it.  It would be great if someone would be able to at least check the answer to verify it.  ---------- Im lazy, and somewhat new to OO. I am attempting to derive trom the TestContext class.  But am not able to use the base class methods when overriding the base class methods... namespace TestPlay{ public class newTestContext : Microsoft.VisualStudio.TestTools.UnitTesting.

• Visual Studio Team System Identifying 'using' (C#)

  I'm trying to write a rule to check a certain object type is always used as part of a 'using' code block. I get the impression that the only way to do this is by doing some source walking - I find no 'VisitUsing' method. Looking at my source in ILDASM, it appears that using blocks are compiled to try --> finally blocks, with object initialisation before the try. I assume, therefore, that there is no explicit way to identify this in FxCop Sorry Michael, when I said source walking I meant looking at the IL... I was just checking there wasn't an easy way to get at this code pattern from the FxCop analysis. N ...Show All

• SQL Server Using SQL Server Express in Commercial App

  I'm working on a server based ASP.NET app. I'd also like to deploy it as a single user version. Rather than rewrite it to .Net windows (at least initially), I'm thinking about having the user install Cassini and SQL Server Express on their machines, and run the app as a "local" web app. Clearly, there are a lot of issues to consider. One is whether to even think about using SQL Server Express for this. So, two questions on that, initially: Q1) Are there any licensing issues I would direct the user to download directly from MS. Q2) What would it take to get SQL Server Express and the application to start talk ...Show All

• SQL Server Subtotals broken in Report Builder?

  Sub-totals are not working as I would like/expect in an end-user tool when dealing with data from a relational schema with cascading 1-Many relationships.  Instead of performing aggregation at the level of the source table, it is blindly performing aggregation on the result set, causing incorrect results. An simplified hypothetical example will make this clear. Imagine the following relationships: Table "Patients"  related 1-many on patid with Table "TreatmentsProvided"  related 1-many on treatid with Table "FinancialTrans" for the following tables: Patients patid           n ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Having trouble watching training videos

  Hi, I'm trying to watch the training videos on Microsoft's site ( http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/express/vwd/learning/default.aspx ), yet the video will pause while the audio continues. Anyway to get these videos to run smoothly without the video pausing for a minute every once in a while I can still here the audio though. Thanks! Leo I downloaded them and I still get the same problem.  For example, on the first video at exactly 15min : 11sec the video pauses and doesn't resume until about 18min : 21sec.  I personally dislike .wmv, I wish microsoft would have giving the option of a ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Static Analyzer reports buffer overrun in comdef.h: C6386

  The static analyzer doesn't like a section of code in the standard include file comdef.h(258): m_pszMsg = (LPTSTR)LocalAlloc(0, 32 * sizeof (TCHAR)); if (m_pszMsg != NULL) { WORD wCode = WCode(); if (wCode != 0) { _COM_PRINTF_S_1(m_pszMsg, 32, TEXT( "Unknown error 0x%0lX" ), m_hresult); To me this seems a hick-up of the static anaylzer. I have see some other post that described that this is caused by the fact that /analyze was defined for the project or just activated by the project menu. But that post was about a pre-release, and I am using the released version of VC2005. Have anybody else seen th ...Show All

• Windows Forms How to access methods of MDI Child form by MDI Parent toolbar?
