• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Peer Channel performance

  Hi all! I am building a p2p application using WCF and the peer channel and one of the requisites of this application is to be able to send the higher number of updates per second. While doing some profiling, I noticed that server was sending (at least the sending method executed and returned) at the rate I had specified but clients were receiving at a variable rate. For instance, I specified an update rate of 170 miliseconds on the server and logs said it was sending more or less at that rate. But the logs on the client side were different: they showed a quite variable receiving rate (i.e. 171, 12, 189, 12, 231, 11, 171, 12, 232, ...Show All

• Windows Forms Datagridview restrict to numeric input

  VS2005 CTP July Am I the only developer on the planet that needs to restrict a Datagridview column to numeric input with Minimum, Maximum and decimal places I have searched high and low.  Does anyone have working code that lets you use a NumericUpDown control as a cell in a DataGridView control This is such a BASIC function for a grid control that I just can't believe that Microsoft does not have it as part of the datagridview control columns. I have tried converting the CalendarCell class in MSDN Magazine/ April 2005 Cutting Edge but I cant get the column to allow input of the decimal point and the NumericUpDown control will only d ...Show All

• Visual C# Detecting if a program is running on Terminal Services

  I am writing an application which will be run on Terminal Services. Is it possible to get the name of the remote system running the application via TS So far the only luck I've had is getting the name of the TS server. Have a look at the post in this same thread by Gorm. He shows a Win32 API that you can call to retrieve this. Simply use the DllImportAttribute to call this method. If you have found some VB code to do this, it is very easy to convert VB -> C#, they are very similar. ...Show All

• Visual FoxPro [URGENT] help extracting FoxPro DBF Encrypted fields

  Hi everyone. I'm working with a Foxpro DBF database, but I'm not using Visual Foxpro to read the data. I'm doing this from C#.Net. In fact .. I've never really used Foxpro before. My problem is as follows: In C# and Crystal Reports .. a lot of the string fields simply return blank strings (i.e. "") When I view the table in FoxPro, they are fixed-width character fields, and browsing the table shows that they contain a bunch of special ASCII characters. A # E I know that the data is there, because when I run the FoxPro application which came with the database files I can see the actually data (actually numerical decimal values). So . ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) DLinq provider?

  We are in the middle of developing an ORM system in C# 2.0. The system differs from conventional ORM tools in that the data classes are maintained through a userfriendly interface.

The system has built in logic for handling user access, revisions, relation fields etc.  At the momement we are developing a query object for retrieving data and are looking into using syntax similar to Opath or NHibernate. Will we be able to support DLinq with our system through implementing DLinq interfaces or making some sort of a DLinq provider http://www.webscape.n ...Show All
