• Visual Studio Visual SourceSafe (Internet) is slow as hell...why/what can I do?

  So we have 4 people attempting to access VSS via the Internet plug-in, and it is slow as hell. Doing a get on the solution is about 2 to 3 times slower than SourceOffsite for more than one of these guys ... (and that puts it basically at the same speed as VSS over LAN...and yes we checked, they are running the Internet plug-in). The others are slower than SourceOffsite but not as bad as describe above (but it is inconsistent....and this is comparing on the same network connections). Any ideas What OS do you have the Web Service installed on In Windows XP Pro there is a limit of incoming connections, which ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Express .img [Image] files cannot be burned to disk with Nero as stated !

  The webpage where you download Visual Express Beta 2 image files states that you can use Nero Ultra Edition 6 to burn these .img files to disk. This is incorrect. When I attempted to open any of these .img files Nero responded with an error message stating that the file format was incorrect. I haven't bothered downloading and trying Roxio as I really don't want to have to purchase two cd rom writing programs. Has anybody else come across this problem and what workarounds are there Note: these files open correctly in IsoBuster so there is no file corruption. Try ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Client application authentication?

  I realize that .Net 2.0 does not provide client application authentication and was wondering if WCF/Indigo addresses this issue in any way Thanks, Ray Manning Sounds pretty trivial , just use the assembly names as users. Use custom Token as you security and say proxy.UserName = assembly.Name proxy.Password = something excrypted on the client which the server know. Or part of the assembly signing. The server will reject you if the proxy does not provide this. Any such structure will always be insecure by definition ( replay attacks , cracking) ... but if more strong security is you ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) help wih Viewport and Viewbox

  Im having trouble with the Viewbox and Viewport properties of the various brushes. For example, in my 3D experiements, I have been creating a VisualBrush from a TextBlock succesfully, but because this seems to create many intermediate rendering targets, and because the actual text is infrequently changing, I thought I would render the text to a bitmap and use an ImageBrush instead. Unfortunately, I havent managed to come to grips with how Viewbox and Viewport affect the brush. Lets say I create a mesh whose texture coordinates range from (0,0) to (1,1). Now the following code works fine for me, though it does stretch the TextBlock to f ...Show All

• Visual C++ controlling user input

  I'm writing a game. A very symple game that doesn't use objects or anything like that. (I'm relatively new to prgramming and haven't gotten that far yet.) Over and over again the program asks the user for input. Some examples: cout << "Play (or try, failures) again, Yes(1) or No(0) " ; cin >> pg; cout << "Show attack score, Yes(1) or No(0) :" ; cin >> showatk; Since these questions only have two anwsers, the variables pg and showatk are of bool type. This all works fine, until the user tries to answer ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Which version of SQL 2005?

  I looked in the team foundation installation guide and it doesn't appear to explicitly state which version of SQL you should install Should I download and install the Developer Edition or Express -dave CTP - Community Technology Preview. Beta 2 is not the same as the April CTP - it's quite a lot older.  Think of the April CTP as Beta 3 (even though it's not labelled as such and probably wasn't tested as much as a full beta release would have been). ...Show All

• .NET Development Use Javascript to check if client has added the domain as a Trusted Site

  I need a way to check, using Javascript, if the user has added the domain as a Trusted Site. We sell different kinds of content management tools and similar products to our customers. To be able to guarantee it's functionality, we require, among other things, that the domain that the CMS is installed on, has been added as a trusted site. At the login prompt we need a way to check if it has been added as a trusted site and if not, display a warning. I haven't been able to come up with a good solution to this yet. Anyone know if it can be done Indeed I am having a very similar problem. Upon logi ...Show All

• .NET Development Creating ASP.Net WebUserControl at RunTime and saving as a new .ascx file using CodeDom

  Can anyone please throw some light on creating ASP.Net WebUserControl at RunTime and saving as a new .ascx file using CodeDom Thanks in advance. Hi! That's a fantastic question! First off, you should be able to create the web user control in code by declaring a new instance of a webuser control, and then dynamically adding your controls to it, just like you would if you were adding controls to an existing page, or what have you. Saving it is the part that I'm not sure about. Try posting in the ASP.NET forums and someone over there should have a better idea. The best place for asking ASP.NET questions is on the ASP.NET commun ...Show All

• Visual C++ Multiple Resource Files

  Hello. I have been "told" that my app may need to operate in multiple languages. As far as I can tell this will need me to create another resource file, with all the same dialogs, menu's etc just with different languages. So "File" is something else in spanish. I realise that this is a labourous task etc. I was wondering where it is in Visual studio that you can specify to use a different .rc file As I understand it is a .res file thats actually used in the build (i assume its a compiled rc file). I know where this can be changed in visual studio but is there somewhere that i can say instead of using "some path\m ...Show All
