Is there a typo in your code snippet? The line
queueMessage.CharacterSet = lSTrBase64String.Length;
doesn't make much sense at first glance.

Sorry, we don't do homework for you. If you have a specific thing you're confused about let us know where you are stuck and what you've tried and we will gladly try to help you out.

Please do not repost the same question over and over again. If you wish to clarify what you are looking for, edit your original question. Thanks!

Yes, I entirely understand. :)

Generally speaking, it is impractical to do development in 100% assembly language. However, I think we as development community (not just CP) are far too dismissive of assembly language coding. We tend to make it sound like some intimidating lost black art that has almost no use whatsoever when in fact learning assembly and doing a little toy project or two can be very helpful in understanding what's really going on beneath what we see in our IDEs and debugging your other projects.

I've done a few very small things in assembly. It's certainly more manual than C/C++, but with macros like the ones in the MASM32 package, it's not that bad. I know there has been at least one commercial application done in 100% assembly: the old Playstation emulator "Bleem!" back in 1999.

You are absolutely correct. I was just trying to point out the plain path vs. Server.MapPath discrepancy which hadn't been pointed out yet at the time I wrote this answer. :)

Thanks for the tip! :)

Visual Basic.NET or some other version of BASIC (i.e. VB6, QBASIC, RealBASIC, etc.)?

Sorry, I can't really give you anything beyond the example from my answer. I have no idea what criteria you are using to find the nodes you want. That w3schools site has some decent tutorials on XPath queries. I can also recommend using a tool called Sketchpath from http://qutoric.com/sketchpath/ that can be a lot of help.

Kythen 28-Feb-11 17:35pm View

That's where the XPath query comes in. I made some assumptions about your XML data, but the query in my example should do the same thing as the if elements in your XSLT. Change it to whatever you need.

Please do not post duplicate questions.

Come up with a calibration procedure if there isn't already one done on Android phones (I don't have one myself). Then study up on linear algebra and matrix math.

Beyond that, it's entirely up to you to decide what to do with the movement information.

Try using the debugger in the IE8 Developer Tools to break into the code while the page is doing the "sit and spin" thing. You should be able to see if your javascript code is getting stuck somewhere, or if IE is just being retarded.

I'm pretty sure the developer(s) of that PDF converter library would appreciate it if you did not share your license key with everyone.

That's great and absolutely correct... if the OP is using .NET and is looking for information on how to mask passwords on a textbox. I didn't see anything in the question that allowed me to make those assumptions. Hopefully the OP will add some clarification.

Kythen 18-Aug-10 17:16pm View

Can you give us a little more context to your question? Are you just trying to use a password textbox, or are you trying to write something like Spy++? Are you using native C++ or .NET?

Kythen 18-Aug-10 13:38pm View

Not sure that's going to help the OP very much. He/She tagged the question C++, not C#. :)

Kythen 23-Jul-10 14:00pm View

Your link is to the basic x86 integer division instruction, not an SIMD division instruction in MMX/SSE/etc. While I agree that it's best to consult the CPU reference docs, I'm not sure that pointing him to the basic x86 DIV instruction is nearly as helpful as pointing him to the SSE2 instruction set reference would be.

Kythen 7-Jul-10 17:56pm View

How is it not working? What result are you getting and what are you expecting to see?

Kythen 7-Jul-10 16:57pm View

Instead of using the FileStream constructor, you could use FileStream inFile = thisFi.OpenRead() instead. I would also advise using FileInfo.Name or FileInfo.FullPath instead of ToString() to get the file name.

If you explain *why* you have these requirements and give us the bigger picture of what you are trying to accomplish you are more likely to get a better answer. I'm guessing this has something to do with either pay periods or fiscal calendars, but obviously there is no way for me to know for sure.

I'm guessing English is not your first language. As such, here is some friendly advice to you. Your last sentence may be interpreted by some readers as having a very demanding and impolite tone. I would recommend a different choice of words, perhaps thanking people in advance for any help they may be able to provide.

Please include what SQL database server you are using (SQL Server/Oracle/etc.)

Also, using parameters will *not* slow down your application too much. Bad queries and poor database design are much more likely do affect performance.

Please don't add unnecessary answers to old questions.

The regex string is just a normal string, so you have to escape special characters like the backslash with an additional backslash character or turn it into a verbatim string by putting a @ character before the first double-quote character.

Kythen 24-May-10 23:53pm View

A small point of clarification for the benefit of the original poster: Make sure to call this myRegEx.IsMatch() with Message *after* doing the call to TrimEnd('}') as our regular expressions would fail if the ending '}' was still included.

Kythen 24-May-10 23:42pm View

You're absolutely correct. I hadn't payed close attention and missed including the ^ and $. The answer has been edited to fix this.
