• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Problem with FaultException<>

  I'm having a problem getting FaultException<> to actually return as a generic FaultException rather than the plain FaultException class. I set up a test service that can throw either a System.IO.FileNotFoundException or a System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException, with appropriate [FaultContract()] attributes on the operation. The problem is, when I throw a FaultException<FileNotFoundException> I get the correct generic exception at the client, and I can retrieve the actual exception from the Detail property. With FaultException<SqlException>, I don't get a generic exception at the client, I just get a System.ServiceModel.Fa ...Show All

• .NET Development How to Handle relative URLs in HTTPWebRequest

  Hi, I am catching the request from browswers using HTTPListener object and then processing those requests through HTTPWebRequest and writing back the response using HTTPWebResponse classes. The problem is with relative links for images and other scripts. For example my listener gets a request for http:// www.yahoo.com/r/n , it process forwards it to the web server using HTTPWebRequest. Now the further requests having relative URLs for images/scripts on this page are automatically made and most of them returned 404 Not found error. I tried to insert a <base href=http://hostaddress....> in the source code of that page but that crea ...Show All

• Smart Device Development VS2005 Embedded Compact Framework 2 Deployment

  Typically when developing for an Windows CE device such as a PDA you can use activesync  to deploy the app and the version of .NET CF if its not available. Situation: Using Platform Builder CE5 have created an image (with .NET CF 1 as in the catalog).  Given connectivity problems I often just build my  CF apps to the FlatRelease directory and can then run on the device (OS running in debug mode) from there, or create a cab file on a memory stick which I then use to install to device.  I assume that if I had activesync running on the device then when I run the app from VS the .NETCF2 files will be copie ...Show All

• Visual C++ New to C++, error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol "double __cdecl

  Hi, I'm very very new to this. I've been working on a school payroll project. I have to read in an array of structs, process them for grossPay taxes etc, then output the results. Sounds easy... but I keep getting this error: "error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol "double __cdecl grossPay(double,int)" ( grossPay@@$$FYANNH@Z )" I get one of those errors for each of my processing functions.

• Visual Studio Dynamic Code Execution

  Hello everybody, is there a way to execute some dynamic code in MSBuild I need to assign an expression which should be evaluated at run-time (i.e. when the script is being parsed or executed): <SomeNiceTask StartDate = DateTime.Today.AddDays(- 1 ).AddHours( 2 ).ToString() /> Is it possible or do I have to write a custom task for that :-| Ondrej Yes.

• Visual C++ bug with virtual private memeber function

  I created a base class with a private virtual funciton. I was then able to inherit from that class and override the private function as if it was protected. No compiler errors, and the behavior is as if it was 'protected', not 'private' I would have inlined the code, but there's no clear way to avoid it taking up ridiculous amounts of space by skipping lines. You can not protect a virtual function against overriding if this is the issue you want to solve. The private keyword tells the compiler to protect this function from "outside the class usage". You can create a new derived c ...Show All
