• Visual C# A beautiful language ruined by generics

  >However you managed to arrive, you were instantly greeted by lines and lines of code barely recognizable as a member of the C/C++ family. It is true that templated code requires a little more knowledge to read than other C++ code.  That's the difference between beginner and intermediate, IMO >Generics are a really simple concept - mainly syntactic sugar to deal with the lack of a unitary object hierarchy in C++. That's just plain not true.  Regardless of if everything was derived from a common object class ( which is not true even in C# ), generics provide type safety a lot more than they provide some sort of unifying ...Show All

• SQL Server Trouble using XML Source from a variable

  I have a SP that outputs a valid XML record set. Using a Execute SQL Task, I can put the XML results into a string variable. When I try to use the variable in an XML Source nothing happens and I get no error.. If I access the same XML from a file, I get the desired results. Any ideas why Can you describe a bit more about "nothing happens" - i.e. did you get the events of execution start/finish at the dataflow task(if it is in the designer, did you see dataflow task colored green, or red) Another thing,You did set xmlsrc's Data Access Mode to "XML data from variable", not "XML file from ...Show All

  Hi Initially I had been working on Beta version of VS2005. I was having 3 datagridViews in my form. Now I have moved to Release version of VS.NET. In Release version the instance name of datagridView columns have changed automatically.Since I have given same "Name" (Name property of datgridView column) for different columns it is throwing error when i tried to open the form in designer view.

• SQL Server sql server 2005 diagram support

  For some reason, when I try to access a database diagram on our new 2005 SQL Server, I get the following error msg: "Database diagram support objects cannot be installed because this database does not have a valid owner" It then goes on to instruct me to either use Properties > Files or ALTER AUTHORIZATION to change the database owner. Well, I've done that - and it clearly shows that there is an owner of the database, but even if I log in as that owner, the error msg continues to come up everytime I try to access Diagrams. I found a post to run the following stored procedure which will set the sql server compatabilit ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Load tests not getting dependent files

  I have some working coded web tests. However, when I use them in a load test, almost nothing happens. The first POST is passed and then the load test does not GET the dependent files (with the exception of the style sheet according to the server log). After this, nothing. The load test does not attempt another POST. In fact, the load test monitor does not even report that any tests are under way. It only reports user(s) and request(s). Now, I've done load tests on external production websites using the same steps without problems. The only thing that I can think of, is that when attempting to log in, our web app launches a child wi ...Show All
