The data i want to bind comes from 2 classes UserInfo, UserExtendedInfo The datacontext of the UserControl is set to UserInfo so i can bind most controls easily doing the following <Label Name="LblEmail" Text="...
In our app we have resource strings that are apparently too long for the compiler. The build breaks stating the "line length is too long." I have found little information about the topic of lengthy string resources and even had a difficult time finding what the limit on such a resource string is. Eventually I found this article which gi...
Hi there, I'm adding an OCX to a resource dialog that I've created in my C++ project. The ocx adds properly; but my question is how do I access the ocx programatically? I don't see a member variable (or even a class) attached to it. This is my .rc contents ////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////...
The scope of the project I'm working on is being expanded. The application is fairly simple but currently targets a very specific niche. For the immediate future I've been asked to fork the project to target a new market and continue developing the two projects in tandem. Both projects will be functionally similar so there is a very str...

I've added the images as resources, and referenced them in my xaml file: <DockPanel.Resources> <Image x:Key="NewIcon" Source="Toolbar ...
Normally an application bundle on OS X can only be started once, however by simply copying the bundle the same application can be launched twice. What's the best strategy to detect and stop this possibility? On Windows this effect can simply be achieved by the application creating a named resource at launch and then exit if the named r...
The combination of coroutines and resource acquisition seems like it could have some unintended (or unintuitive) consequences. The basic question is whether or not something like this works: def coroutine(): with open(path, 'r') as fh: for line in fh: yield line Which it does. (You can test it!) The deeper co...
I just got my first Jython (and Python) project, and I was wondering what documentation, IDEs, etc. are best suited to a Java buff like me. I know there are a lot of questions about starting out with Python, so I'm asking for things that might be specific to Jython. Where should I start? If it helps, I'm running Linux and Solaris only....
I have three web application projects that share a common library of custom server controls. Sharing the code behind files is easy - they are compiled into a dll that i reference in the other projects using a project reference. But how do I handle files like JavaScript, style sheets and images? I am trying to do this "the Visual Studio w...
First I just want to say I am new to WPF, so please excuse my ignorance... I am creating a .Net plug-in for Rhino 4.0. With the plugin I am developing a UI using WPF.

Hello gurus, When throwing custom exceptions or issuing messages to the end user, one could use hard-coded the strings (including string constants), use resource-only assemblies or get strings from a table in a database.

Hello, I am having a problem creating a resource in my App.xaml file. My problem is that I want to instantiate an object that requires a parameter in its constructor (my Linq-to-Sql DataContext, in this particular case), but I don't know if it's even possible to pass parameters like this in XAML. Does anyone know of a way to get arou...
