• Visual C++ Where can I find information/discussion on low level audio and midi device drivers

  I have been using the multimedia lowlevel audio services API but find that this API sometimes behaves in a brain damaged fashion. For Instance I installed a Soundblaster card and disabled the previous motherboard driver in the Windows XP Proffessional control panel and disabled the hardware in the bios. However waveOutGetNumDevs picks up 2 devices. I then go on to call waveOutGetDevCaps for device numbers 0 and 1 and display the names to the use ...Show All

• Visual Studio MSBuild conditional import and Visual Studio IDE

  Hi all, First of all, apologies if this is the wrong group - the problem I'm experiencing seems to be in the MSBuild hosted in the VS IDE, rather than the command-line MSBuild. I have vcproj files with conditional imports (to pull in MSBee build rules for a FX1.1 build). These build fine from the command line with the relevant conditional parameters set - I use a condition of: Condition=" '$(Platform)' == 'Win32 (.NET 1.1)'" so I can i ...Show All

• .NET Development Inheriting or overriding a class within a class... why not?

  This seems like such a basic need that I am mystified why the brilliant minds at Microsoft have not made it possible via the .NET languages, .NET framework, or whatever would make it possible. Case in point: Take a TreeView class which contains a private read only TreeNodeCollection class. The TreeNodeCollection class is responsible for Add(), Remove(), InsertAt(), etc. Well, it's very easy to inherit from the TreeView, but then if you wan ...Show All

• Windows Forms MERGING CELLS IN DATAGRIDVIEW

  Hi all, Is it possible to merge cells(rows) in DatagridView And How Thanx The DataGridView does not have any support for merging cells.

• Visual C++ VC++ 8 Show-Stopper?

  Hi, I'm seeing a speed hit of around 2X when switching to VC++ 2005. It's so serious and effects even the most  basic programs that I can only think I must be missing something. Please help!

• Visual Studio Team System Visual SourceSafe 2005 Internet Access

  Hello, Please could someone explain why the Visual SourceSafe internet access dialog within Visual Studio requires a UNC path as well as an HTTP one Is this implying that for initial setup, there must be a lan/vpn type connection or can a remote developer with only HTTP access (but with an NT account) connect and use the system somehow Thanks Simon Alfredo You mention that there is an assumption about lock down. ...Show All

• Smart Device Development vs2005 compiler is fatally flawed: generates bad code

  In this very simple excerpted code, the compiler fails to do its job.  If you want it recreated, I propose someone there try to recreate it.  I've already got it happening here.  It's as simple as it gets.  From the type of failure, it looks like it's going to happen a lot. r12 is assigned the address of mc.decodePriority only if gDecodeMaxPriority >= 3, yet it, r12, is still used as the store address when it is not &g ...Show All
