• Visual Basic VB 2005 Express App not responding

  Hello! Just downloaded VB 2005 Express and SQL Server Express for evaluation. When creating a new VB app project and making my first click in the window I get an hourglass and message: Application not responding. Ref XP Pro Pentium 4 Cpu 2.25 GHz 256 Mb RAM. What have I been missing! Kurre A Hi ! I had the same experience with a 'Not Responding' title bar. After some serious anger management I figured out that Glocalnet's security package uses F-Secure (which I'm using). So, after a quick uninstall of the above named package, my VS 2005 is now running smoothly. /LK ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Lambdas in Custom Attributes

  I want to pursue the concept of embedding lamdbas in custom attributes. It is not supported today to my knowledge but I believe could be very valuable for DLINQ and more.  public class Customer {   [Association((c, o) => c.CustomerID == o.CustomerID && o.Status == OrderStatus.Incomplete)]   public Order[] IncompleteOrders; } I believe that a syntax such as this would generalize the join conditions that are supported by AssociationAttribute and allow for additional conditions. In that way, queries need not repeat those conditions.  Note that regardless of whether DLINQ adopts this, there is a deeper is ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Getting info about local variables.

  How would you get information about variables local to a method I thought looping over a method's instructions would get me there but it appears there is no opcode generated for local variable declaration. Instead there is a .locals init ( ) line. Is there a way to access that information So far Method.Body.HasLocals is the only thing I've found to be of any use and I thought the Block class would lead me to my goal but so far it hasn't. Any advice the answer is not complete;I have the same problem when I'm making a rule for check if a constant has a prefix:Is there a way I can tell if a local variable is d ...Show All

• Windows Forms Simple Toobar question ? perhaps not....

  Hi Guys, I am writing an application that has a number of toolbar buttons along the top. At the end of these buttons I want to position a panel control (that has info in). I have two test machines. One running XP Home and the other Win2000 professional. On the XP Machine I use the designer to position the panel directly after the last toolbar button. Compile and transfer to the other test machine. When I run the application the panel control has moved left and is now covering the last 2 buttons (ie, it has moved left about 50pixels or so). Testing the other way round (ie, compiling on the Win2000 machine and r ...Show All

• SQL Server Problem With Stored Procedure

  Hi, I am using Stored Procedures on SQL SERVER 2005. It uses cursor to perform row by row operations of string searching. Now the performance of the cursor is fine till the records to be searched are below hundread as the records in which i am searching is 1.5 lakhs. As one of the fields that i search in a bigger field rises to 7,500 unique entries the peroformance drastically decreases. I know cursors can decrease performance but i have tried the iterative ideology too in it but still the performance is still the same. The string searching is being done with the help of PATINDEX . It is my guess that it can be potential reas ...Show All

  Deployment FAQ   Q: I am now getting the following error when I build: " Unable to update the dependencies of the project. The dependencies for the object ' name.dll ' cannot be determined" A: Workaround :  Try to adjust the order of the Projects in the Solution and leave the Database project to the end. We can either edit the Solution (*.sln) file with notepad OR remove and add the Database Project back in the solution. (This also isn’t a great work-around as the addition of a project later in the development cycle will cause the corruption to re-appear).
