Where is the System::Speech::Recognition namespace?
Posted by Peter Oliphant at 10/6/2007 4:37:51 PM
I have installed VC++ 2008 Express and .NET Framework 3.5 on a Vista (Home Premium) machine. I'm also up-to-date with Windows. I can see in MSDN a description of a namespace called System.Speech.Recognition for which I assume the C++ equivalent is System::Speech::Recognition. I thought i...more >>

Problem Installing VC++ 2008 Express Beta 2
Posted by Peter Oliphant at 10/6/2007 3:29:51 PM
I'm currently trying to install VC++ 2008 Express Beta 2. It downloads all the files just fine. Then it begins to install .NET Framework 3.5. This starts, but at around 5% done according to progress bar it stops progressing. At this point it hasb't moved for 15 minutes. Not sure what to do....more >>

C# to CLI call fails somewhere...
Posted by Joachim at 10/5/2007 1:20:01 AM
I have the below C# definitions and function call to an unsafe C++/CLI function in an external dll. When debugging the calls step by step everything seems to work, but if I just run everything through without stopping I get the following error: " Debug Assertion Failed! Program: .....my...more >>

VC++ 2005 Express : Love/Hate Relationship!
Posted by Peter Oliphant at 10/4/2007 2:03:13 PM
I have been using VC++ 2005 Express for a while now. I'm very impressed with the language and GUI environment. But, more to the point, I pretty much adore MANAGED programming, since trying to figure out when it is appropriate to delete something has always been the main problem in C++ programm...more >>

/clr:pure and unmanaged lib
Posted by wpcmame at 10/4/2007 4:39:00 AM
I have a small C++/CLI application which calls an unmanaged lib. It seems like I can't use /clr:pure and link with the unmanaged lib (LNK1313 error). The problem I have is that compiling with /clr adds a dependency on several msvc*.dll:s which adds some unwanted complexity to the installat...more >>

Posted by Peter Oliphant at 10/3/2007 5:41:07 PM
I can read the Font^ of a Button(->Font). But how do I change the Font of a Button, or at least it's size? I'm programming using MS VC++ 2005 Express in /clr managed mode. Thanks! [==Peter==] ...more >>

Creating a subset of a Bitmap
Posted by Peter Oliphant at 10/3/2007 2:02:57 PM
I want to create a new Bitmap which is a portion of an existing Bitmap. For example, if I have a Bitmap that is 100x100 in size I might want to create a new Bitmap that is equivalent to the one located at (x,y)=(10,20) (upper-left hand corner) and is 50x50 in size of the source Bitmap. A sub...more >>



Assertions in release builds?
Posted by Duncan Smith at 10/3/2007 6:17:17 AM
Last week, I got reports back of errors in a patch I let someone try out (release dll, but not from the build machine). Turns out it was some Debug::Assert statements firing. In umanaged code, I'd always understood that assertions were only fired in debug builds and would compile down to NOPs...more >>

Variable execution speed
Posted by Mark S at 10/3/2007 5:26:06 AM
I have an application that consists of a managed C++ wrapper around an unmanaged C++ "engine" that performs a very processor intensive task. In the application I create two instances of the managed wrapper (and therefore of the unmanaged engine) on separate threads so that it can be working ...more >>

Scaling Bitmaps
Posted by Peter Oliphant at 10/1/2007 11:48:03 AM
I'm using the Bitmap class which has built in scaling for images been drawn not at their original size. And it works amazing well, and I'm VERY impressed! However. Is there perchance more than one method this uses that can be selectable? The one it uses is GREAT for photos, it kind of 'blur...more >>

Whereis Urlencode System::Web::HttpUtility
Posted by kito at 10/1/2007 11:15:00 AM
I have ran into a small problem which I am not sure how to resolve. I think its a bug, but I searched the web and newsgroup and no one else has brought up the issue. So I think just that i'm a noob when it comes to dot net. Basically I cannot use the UrlEncode from VC2005 C++. The first p...more >>

How does 'Open With...' work?
Posted by Peter Oliphant at 10/1/2007 9:04:25 AM
If I use 'Open With...' to open a file (menu option) and choose a program I wrote, how do I write a MS C++ 2005 Express application to respond to this? I tried doing this with a program of mine and I got a system error message (crash). I would assume the filename would be one of the main( ) a...more >>
