• .NET Development AppDomains and delegates: the hidden quirk!

  Hi, So I've partitioned my app into multiple app domains. Everything works fine If I use the objects through interfaces (defined in a shared dll). In other words, an assembly in one domain is not loaded up into the other domain when calling the object. Interfaces provide an extra level of indirection. Using an object directly will cause that assembly to be loaded into the calling domain which defeats the whole purpose of the secondary domain. Now, all was working fine until I decided to use a delegate. I have a key binding system going on, where you can bind a keyboard button to a method (ie. 'W' is Camera::MoveFoward). The problem (I think) ...Show All

• Visual Basic Understanding late binding

  I started a project with Options Strict Off and decided to turn it on after reading about it.  I got the error regarding late binding being disallowed.  I have checked some books, online help and several postings on this site about binding.  I basically understand the difference between early and late binding, but I don't know how to fix my code to comply with Options Strick On. Here's the code.  It is in a private sub for a button click.  The underlined code is what causes the error: dim ID as String ID = Me .CaseNumDataGridView.SelectedRows.Item(0).DataBoundItem( "CASENUM" ) CASENUM is a text f ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Error 0x88982f50 when setting properties on Vista 5270

  I'm trying to set some properties on a JPG file in order to experiment with the search & organize APIs. I'm using the December CTP - Vista build 5270. I get an error every time I try to do this. I get the same error whether I use the Windows Explorer or the APIs. I used Paint (the ancient drawing program bundled with Windows) to create a small, simple bitmap of a scribble in my Pictures directory. (G:\Users\ian.IDG\Pictures on this machine.

• Software Development for Windows Vista Does the "Fill to Actual Size" icon (in the lower-right corner of the designer surface) raise any events when clicked?

  Does the "Fill to Actual Size" icon (that appears in the lower-right corner of the designer surface when the size of the parent app window is restored to something smaller) raise any events when clicked 1. If so, which event of which object(s)   I'm guessing that WorkflowView is the object. 2. Are there any settings to disable the "Fill to Actual Size" icon and its behaviours Michael. The event raised is zoom change. It is not possible to disable this in current drop you have; I have entered this as a bug in beta2. We can hopefully fix this. Thanks ...Show All

• SQL Server Modifying generated XSD file

  Hello, I am working with an .xml file that I want to break up into various tables. A couple of fields in my xml file include html tags (<p> tags specifically). The generated xsd file thinks these are nested xml tags and creates a "P" table for the information contained. Is there a way I can modify the generated xsd within the designer Or is the only way to fix this is to manually modify the xsd There is also an <id> tag within the xml. However, SSIS is not using that <id> as the primary key as it adds data to the various tables that I've specified. Instead it appears to be creating its own primary key - cal ...Show All

• Windows Forms SnapToGrid

  Hi, i develop a custom windows forms designer, using Visual Studio 2005 and C#. When I started I searched the Internet for sample code and found some here: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/813808/en-us  or http://support.microsoft.com/ id=813808  . This custom forms designer - compiled with visual studio 2003 + .Net 1.1 - showed a grid over the designed form and was able to snap controls to the grid. Since using .Net 2.0 u obviously have to implement these features by your own, which is not that difficult for drawing the grid (just override the DrawGrid property of the rootdesigner, which i wrote my own class for using Documen ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) DockPanel Width Limited by Bitmap effect?

  Hi all, Ive been struggling to make a dockpanel component wider than around 900 pixels - im using one as a header on my application - it therefore needs to expand to fill the full width of the application. It seems to be limited by the application of a BitmapEffect drop shadow. For example with the followign code the dockpanel downt paint anywhere near 1700 pixels wide, but when i comment out the bitmap effect element the panel fills the width of the screen as it should. I really need the drop shadow though! I think this may be a bug in WPF. By the way - the Border is inside a Canvas.... <Border Width="1700" Margin="39, ...Show All
