• .NET Development Question about ThreadState bitmask and MSDN docs

  Hi all freinds It say in MSDN Doc "The Thread.ThreadState property of a thread provides the current state of a thread. Applications must use a bitmask to determine whether a thread is running . Since the value for Running is zero (0), test whether a thread is running by using C# code such as (myThread.ThreadState & (ThreadState.Stopped | ThreadState.Unstarted)) == 0 or Visual Basic code such as (myThread.ThreadState And (ThreadState.Stopped Or ThreadState.Unstarted)) = 0 ." My question is, can not I use: if (myThread.ThreadState == System.Threading.ThreadState.Running) instead since I have seen it in some books and internet forume ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) TreeView BeforeSelect event equivalent

  How can I cancel a TreeViewItem selection When a user selects a new item in the TreeView I need to check whether there are unsaved changes and give the user a chance to cancel the selection and save. BeforeSelect event did this for WinForms. How do I do this in WPF Thanks Michael What about the SelectedItemChanged event of the TreeView class You could intercept the event when a new item is selected, and do your validation from there. And i'm pretty sure you can select the old item back if required. ...Show All

• Windows Forms How to do indeterminate progress bar?

  Sometimes you know when a task begins, and when it ends, but you don't know the increments. In such situations you want to display an "indeterminate" progress bar, which basically means the progress bar doesn't fill from left to right, instead a few segments move from left to right and starts over from left, and this repeats. How do you do such a "never ending" progress bar I have seen it in Microsoft applications, but I don't see a property on the progressbar class to turn this mode on. i need help i want to know how to add the progress bar on my web browser i have built, i added the progress bar, i have ...Show All

• SQL Server Cannot change naming metadata

  Hello, I've found a bit of an infuriating nuance in SSAS2005. My cube used a view called view1. At some point in time the DSV was changed to use a very similar object called view2 instead. I got a failure when processing the cube. The message was: Errors in the OLAP storage engine: An error occurred while processing the 'view1' partition of the 'foo' measure group for the 'bar' cube from the foobar database. In other words...the name of the object in the deployed DSV is still view1. I've looked at the XML and it has a friendly name of view2 (helpful) but the object name in the message above is really really misleading. ...Show All

• Windows Forms But What About VB.NET?

  It seems that all the sample code and controls ( http://www.windowsforms.net/Default.aspx tabindex=4&tabid=49 ) are written in C#. The ability for VB.NET projects to utilize C# code WITH EASE is, IMHO, highly over rated. I'm trying to develop an app with an Outlook look and feel (cuz my boss wants me to), but the Joe Stegman sample code is in C#, and try as I may, I can not get any of the code to play nice with myVB.NET project. The sample in question ( Outlook 2003 Look and Feel - Joe Stegman ) boasts all this ability in 100 line of code and hardly any effort. I suppose that is true, after you take into account the time s ...Show All

• Windows Forms BackgroundWorker keeps changing my code!

  I think I'm going crazy... I have a VB project with several forms that use BackgroundWorkers.  The code works fine.  However, from time-to-time, VS B2 decides to change the code in my DoWork event handlers.  It deletes ALL of my DoWork code (leaves the Private Sub and End Sub lines) and replaces it with: 'This method will run on a thread other than the UI thread. 'Be sure not to manipulate any Windows Forms controls created 'on the UI thread from this method.   In addition, several (but not all) of the other event handlers have the layout of the declaration (the Private Sub) changed -- the content ...Show All
