• SQL Server Trying to use adomd in a web app

  I'm trying to connect to an AS2005 cube using adomd in an asp.net application. It only works if I use impersonation in the app. I don't want to do this, and I would like to include a User Id in the connection string. But this seems to get ignored. If I look in SQLServer profiler it's always the impersonation id that gets used.

• .NET Development Datasets aren't finalized after leaving the scope

  Hi, we discovered a strange behaviour concerning garbage collection of datasets. Because our application needs a tremendous amount of memory and constantly allocates more and more of it we are counting the instances of our objects in memory. Thus we able to determinate if an object is finalized by the garbage collection. Basically most of our objects contain these code snippets in the "new" and "finalize" methods: Public Sub Ne ...Show All
