• Visual C# How to make certain classes accessible to your own developers only?

  Hello, since almost 2 years my company is playing around with .NET and there is one question none of us few .NET developers could answer good enough to make us satisfied.

• SQL Server SQLNCLI.DLL can't find MSVCR80.dll at runtime

  I have written a C++ DLL that links against the SQLNCLI.LIB, which uses the SQLNCLI.DLL. When the runtime DLL loader attempts to find MSVCR80.DLL which SQLNCLI.DLL depends on it cannot find it unless it is in your system path somewhere. I thought this behavior was depricated with the release of VS 2005 and the C Runtime 8.0 Isn't this supposed to be loaded via a manifest file from within SQLNCLI.DLL If not is the proper solution to copy MSVCR80.DLL file somewhere in your path Thanks, Mike Is the manifest embeded into the C++ DLL Thanks, Ayman Shoukry VC++ Team ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System A Complex TFS Tolopogy Deploy.

  Hi! I'm testing a TFS deployment on a Complex scenario. I'm building a topology exactly like this but in my case, between the remote and the local site's domains there won't exists any trust relationship. Clients on the remote location will be using my TFS installation, I'll install a TFS Proxy on that remote location to avoid source control low-performance issues. But those clients will exists on a second organization that I cannot manage, so a trust relationship will never exists between those domains. How does the TFS Build Server authenticate against the TFS AT server Is it possible to provide credentials of a remote untr ...Show All

• SQL Server Doesn't like a particular namespace

  Hi, Can someone try and replicate an error for me. Follow these steps: 1) Create a new package 2) Place a Sequence container in it 3) Create a variable called User::ContainerStartTime scoped to the package 4) Create a variable called User::ContainerStartTime scoped to the sequence container 5) Change the namespaces of the 2 variables from "User" to "Metadata" You get an error on step 5 saying another object in the collection already has that name yet it doesn't mind them when they're both called User::ContainerStartTime Why -Jamie Ok, I also got an error following those steps... Weird. Could it be that the scopes only exists in ...Show All

• Visual Studio Is there an equivalent to UML multiplicitys in the class designer?

  Hi there, was wondering if there is a way to represent an association between two objects in the class designer with anything other than a one to one relationship as is done with the multiplicity attributes on either side of an association in UML. What I was hoping for was to be able to specify a one to many relationship and have the code represented as a Generics collection of the appropriate type. Failinig that is there a way to display an association without it generating any code so that my model atleast made sence visually and then put the code in myself. We tried to get support in for creati ...Show All

• SQL Server SQL Server 2005 Express + User Instances

  Greetings All, It was with great excitement and interest that I installed SQL Server 2005 Express along with all the other "Express" editions of Visual Studio onto my computer.  What a great way to learn a variety of modern programming languages/techniques with no investment other than time.  I had visions of a wonderful personal website that my family could enjoy visiting.  I had visions of finally being able to work on a custom book database that my wife has frequently talked about.  I'm not sure those visions are ever going to come to fruition. The core of my problem seems to be SQL Server.  I can't even get the w ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions collections questions

Thanks in advance. 1 - Because it means some classes can generate enumerators, without actually implimenting one 2 - that's pretty loose. How do you mean 3 - coll ...Show All

• Visual Studio Tools for Office MSProject VS Interop problems

  Hello, I am trying to implement a server side .mpp file analyzer and handler for various web services. I have the MS Project 2003 PIA interops and everything is working swell. My problem is the processes that load. Sometimes WINPROJ.EXE loads and just hangs there until I kill it. Sometimes WINPROJ.EXE spawns the msiexec.exe installer process which uses up over 50% of my resources for several minues. The interesting thing is msiexec.exe will not spawn if i run Project normally. When I call the interop I am using this code (in c#): MSProject.ApplicationClass app = null; try { app = new MSProject.ApplicationCla ...Show All
