• .NET Development WSE 3.0 and ASP.NET 2.0 Membership

  Hi, In the past I have used a custom UserNameTokenManager class to authenticate username / password combinations is WSE 2.0.  Is there a way to tie into the ASP.NET 2.0 Membership provider for authentication and authorization using WSE 2.0 without writing custom code for WSE 3.0   Or do I still have to manually write the custom UserNameTokenManager Thanks, Jon   OK,  I just found a document on the patterns and practices site that seems to have more information....   http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx familyid=3E02A6C8-128A-47C2-9F39-4082582F3FE1&displaylang ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Disconnected modified files

  The biggest reasons we are not switching over from VSS to VSTFD have to do with working on files is disconnected mode, sluggish performance and multiple file comparisions.  Perhaps you can address some of our issues 1. If I am disconnected from the source control and I have modified project files or deleted project files (and probably added files) team foundation does not find these file changes.  Moveover, a "get latest version" believes that the deleted files still exist in the file system (it appears to be comparing against metadata instead of the actual file system).  I understand that there are some team foundation power ...Show All

• Smart Device Development porting of eVC4.0 project to VStudio 2005

  I'm trying to port eVC4.0 project to Visual Studio 2005 (beta-2). I was told that I have to install the following add-in: eVC Upgrade Wizard (beta). The problem is, my system drive (D) is different from the drive, where Studio 2005 is installed (F). In the add-in installation I browsed to F\Program Files..., but it still installed itself on system disk. When I copied zip file to the drive F and run the install_eVCUW.bat file, I found out it suppose Studio is installed on system drive. Then I run each command of the .bat file manually (renamed dlls, and other files, copied new ones and registered dlls with regsvr). Now Visual Studio shows an ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) System.Windows.Markup.XamlParseException when running winfx june ctp application on winxp sp2 machines

  I have been receiving a "System.Windows.Markup.XamlParseException" on several different computers when running a wpf application we have been building as well as when trying to run the code from www.valil.com/winfx site. We have installed the WINFX beta 2 release on 4 computers running winxp, and they get this issue. However, two others with vista beta 2 and three computers running winfx with all the developement tools do not seem to have this problem. We really need some advice on how to solve this issue, and any advice would be appreciated. Steve I thought of that possibility, but I am u ...Show All

• SQL Server Retrieving multiple Result Sets from within a stored procedure

  A coworker of mine came to me with a question about a stored procedure he's working on. In this case, he has a stored procedure which invokes a second stored procedure. He wants that second stored procedure to return two result sets and then make use of both of them in the original stored procedure. I know how to make a stored procedure return multiple result sets (just do two select statements), but how would you utilize those from the original stored procedure Thanks. You can put the resultset in a temporary table with INSERT INTO #TempTableName EXEC SPName or use a userdefined function rather than a st ...Show All

• Windows Forms Saving and retrieving Font object

  A User selects a Font from a FontDialog, and it's captued in a System.Drawing.Font object. How can I save it to, and restore it from, a SQL database For me, I think the question boils down to "How can I convert a Font object to and from binary ". Thanks in advance. Font objects are serializable. So, for example, use a BinarySerializer to serialize the font to a MemoryStream, then store the result in your database. Then you can use the same method in reverse to deserialize it later. ...Show All

• Visual C# Getting rid of excel.exe from memory

  I use excel interop to load in data from excel file. After the loading is done, I call myExcelInstance.Quit(). But in task manager I can still see an EXCEL.EXE for each file I opened, eating up a fair bit of memory. These instances don't go away until I close my application. What am I doing wrong ~S You can try to decrements the reference count of the runtime callable wrapper with the Marshal.ReleaseComObject method. Marshal.ReleaseComObject( myExcellInstance ); myExcellInstance = null ; You should release all your COM object like the _Workbook and/or _Worksheet objects. ...Show All

• Visual Basic File association

  Hello people, quick question with hopefully a simple answer. Using VB.NET2003, after I associate a particular file type with my application, how do I go about coding my application to load that file upon execution For example, notepad.exe is simply an application, but whenever you double click a .TXT file, notepad loads and automatically loads the .TXT file into it's workspace. Thanks very much in advance. Nothing special in your program is needed, just the right registry entries. My Computer + Tools + Folder Options, File Types tab, New, type your file extension, click Change, Select program, Ok, Browse and pick your EXE. ...Show All

• .NET Development windbg/sos - !dumpheap/!dumpobj/!gcroot

  Is there any way to find the callstack that lead to allocated object in windbg/sos I can do !gcroot, but I would like to see the call stack that lead to the object allocation. Thanks for any pointers! Hi, Thanks for the links. You're right it would take more memory, but not huge amount. There is a tool called gflags.exe that comes with Debugging tools. It allows to specify stack backtrace for each heap allocation. Later in windbg I can query each memory block and see complete callstack that allocated that memory. It works fine in unmanaged world. I thought there is something like that in managed wor ...Show All

• Visual J# List of All J# Browser Controls from Different Iframes

  getAppletContext().getApplets() method does not return all the J# browser controls when controls are in different iframes. I run the page not from a server but directly from local disk from the same directory. This is an important widely used standard feature and it works fine with java applets. I just tested it with a iis server, and it is a no go. It seems like you have a bug in getAppletContext().getApplets() on a multi frame document. Also, a java console like convenience would have been nice. ...Show All
