• Visual Studio Team System Problems with Debug and FxCop

• Visual C# Various functionality missing from Visual C# 2005 beta2?

I seem to be missing functionalit ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Problems with state persistence and timer services

  Hi, I've experimented with adding the SQL state, timer and tracking services to the Lab1 sample step 4 (the expense report approval workflow). The tracking service works fine, but it seems that the state and timer services get the engine stuck on the ListenForManagerApproval activity. If I disable the state and timer services the workflow unfolds as expected. I use the (really cool) Workflow Monitor sample to view the results, and the progress ...Show All

• Visual C++ PostQuitMessage Issue

  Hi, I have tried to automate my application through a small VB program.  This program runs fine except for when you press the quit button.  This button succesfully navigates to the designated function in my C++ code for my application but at this point it fails.  All that is in this function is PostQuitMessage(0);.  It is on this call that the application locks up, as well as the VB app locking up.  I have looked at the ...Show All

• Visual C# Does using(IDisposable) induce boxing?

  If I have a value type Foo: struct Foo : IDisposable {     void Dispose() {}; }   And I place an instance of Foo in a using block: Foo bar = new Foo(); using (bar) {     ... }   My understanding is that bar.Dispose() will be called at the end of the using block. My question is, does this induce boxing Since Foo is a value type, and IDisposable is not, will the C# compiler cast bar to type IDi ...Show All

Since deployment is a bit different with VB Express than VB6, I've been trying to get a handle on this aspect. The compiled application runs on my development machine without any problems.
