• Visual Studio Visual SourceSafe Internet troubles

  I found this VSS for Internet web page ( http://alinconstantin.homeip.net/webdocs/scc/vss_internet.htm ) via a forum post (Visual SourceSafe Internet... http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx PostID=147130&SiteID=1 )   I'm going through the instructions and everything went fine up until step 12 under "Setting up SourceSafe and VisualStudio for Internet access (HTTP)". When I click on the Advanced button, instead of seeing the dialog shown with the "Always use SSL to connect to the server", I am prompted with the SourceSafe login screen (see screen shot at http://webpub.byu.net/mjk2/vss1.png ).&n ...Show All

• Visual C# resource problem

  I have added an xml-file (Signals.xml) containting a definition of a dataset to my project in visual studio. I then marked the xml-file as a embedded resource, and everything works fine. I read the xml-file in a class extending DataSet like:  this .ReadXmlSchema("Signals3.xml") and everything works fine. When I later add another resource (for instance a background image), I get the following error message: An exception occured while trying to create an instance of MyNameSpace.MyDataSet. The exception was "Could not find file "C:\Documents and Settings\peter\Desktop\Backgrounds\Signals.xml".". Now it looks like visual studio ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. CLR and DirectX

  Should there be any slow downs when enabling common lanuage runtime (/clr) in a directX app I have done this to allow the use of windows forms for the options dialog of a directx screensaver I am developing but it causes a massive frame rate hit. Thanks for your help. Andy. This depends on several factors, the least of which is if your DirectX application itself is using Managed DirectX (you didn't specify).  Initial loading of the CLR can cause a frame-rate hit at the start, but otherwise you shouldn't see a performance hit.  Have you run a profiler on the code to see where the delays a ...Show All

• Windows Forms TreeView duplicating nodes in Internet Explorer

  I'm having some serious problems with the TreeView control. I've got a control that inherits TreeView and has some methods that firstly create a TreeNode then does some recursive procedure to add all the children from a database of a sort. Then once this is complete I clear the nodes, then add the TreeNode so it should be the only root node. The only problem is that for some very VERY strange reason there are two root nodes, with duplicate child nodes. This is very bizare as this.Nodes.Count returns 1 and base.Nodes.Count also returns 1, so there SHOULD be 1 root node but there are two. Also, I created another TreeView inherited ...Show All

• Visual C++ debugging: where are the variables?

  Let me start by saying that I am a beginning C++ programmer and am very new to Visual Studio 2005, so please forgive me if this is a silly question. When running the debugger on a simple program such as the one listed below, I find that it doesn't bother to display anything for most of the variables, and even for the variables it does display for, it seems to be garbage. #include <iostream> using namespace std; void main() { const int arraySize = 12; double sales[arraySize] = {0}; int count = 0; double smallestSales = 0; int smallestSalesMonth = 0; for (count = 0; count < arraySize; ++count) { cout << "En ...Show All

• Smart Device Development Smartphone Camera / Device Cameras

  Is there a recommended generic way to deal with cameras on the smart phone etc I've been informed that there is no common API for dealing with these devices and that each of these devices must be handled seperately using a native library provided by the manufacturer. Whats the plan to deal with these imaging devices moving forward Thanks again! So, with this new API, do all cameras have to support it, or ... is this up to the manufacturer. Is it possible that some imaging devices won't be supported under this API Thanks! ...Show All

What is the best event to handle for this purpose Is it SelectionChange Why would the event stop firing WHat could I have done wrong in my code   Sounds a lot like "My button stopped working" problem as described here . You need to make sure the object exposing the SelectionChange event is not a local variable inside your method. It is just getting Garba ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista DelayActivity dynamic update

  Hello, I would like to ask you if it is possible to update DelayActivity.TimeDuration value when DelayActivity is executing I want to achieve scenario like this: workflow is configured to simulate delay specified in the DelayActivity. After DelayActivity starts waiting, user wants to change delay value for the running instance (increase or decrease the delay value). Applying WorkflowChanges to the running workflow instance with different DelayActivity.TimeDuration value set does not work (no errors, old delay value is respected). I was also trying to remove DelayActivity from the running workflow instance and recreate it ...Show All

• Windows Forms Some labels cut off at 2/3 height on some computers

  Hi there, We're developing a windows app.  Amongst other things, we're displaying two labels on a form.  Another dev created these, and set the height of the labels to 13px.  The forms display fine on his computer, but on my laptop only the top two thirds of the text is shown, and the bottom third is invisible.  When I set the label height to 19px, I can see the entire label. My question is why would this be different on his computer and mine   It's very frustrating. My laptop is also reasonably new (Acer Ferrari 4005 if it makes any difference) and I have experience this problem in another couple of apps I use, that ...Show All
