Windows Presentation Foundation AND BO DESKI

Hello!
Could you help us anybody.
We faced with problem when we created some project used Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF is a graphical subsystem for rendering user interfaces in Windows-based applications) and try to open our application and BO DeskI application simultaneously. The result: when we try to close BO DESKI this application abnormal closed..
We create test project used Windows Presentation Foundation which include only 2 standard control. And this test very simple application can not work correct with BO DeskI. If need I ready to send Visual Studio 2008 test project.
We tested this behaviour with BO XI DESKI Release 3.x SP3
Best regards
Andrey

That's interesting - thanks for the greater details.
It's helpful to rule out possible connections between your application and DeskI.
You might want to open a support case with SAP, if you need more interactive assistance.   It'll be opened with the DeskI support team, since you're not using any of the SDKs.
But you may want to run Process Monitor (a tool found on Microsoft's site) to see if there's any file or registry access issues.
Another useful tool is [modules|https://smpdl.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/012002523100006252802008E/modules.zip], that takes a snapshot of all dlls loaded by a process - to see if there's anything in common between your application and DeskI, and to see if DeskI loads different dlls when your application is running.
Sincerely,
Ted Ueda

  • What is Windows Presentation Foundation and why is a plugin necessary?

    Thank you for your willingness to listen. What is WPF? Does it do something helpful? Foxfire plugin site gives option for its plugin (of unknown origin), thus giving it some legitimacy. But some writing on Google have labeled it as a "sneaky deal" foisted on Foxfire users by Microsoft. I really must avoid crashes. I will link to Google info if you wish. (I'm updating a 256 MB memory-deficient Win XP OS in a 12-year old Compaq. There's no wiggle room to cover mistakes and bad judgments.) Beth

    OK, so I have an apple superdrive hooked up to my mini (along with my Passport back up drive).  I also have  the discs for both 64bit and 32bit Windows along with the product key.  I am still not sure what to do when faced with the options after "choose".

  • Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) and XAML

    Hi,
    I just saw a high-level presentation about Windows
    Presentation Foundation (WPF) and XAML. I understand that one of
    the advantages to using this new desktop technology is better
    control over image resolution. I'm no techie, but I immediately
    thought of the challenges we Captivate users have of trying to make
    screenshots larger, but having them end up blurry. Will this new
    technology somehow help with this problem? Thanks!
    Trudie

    I wouldn't think so.
    AFAIK, WPF is the XML language that windows will use to
    render the interfaces. Without knowing too much about it I imagine
    that it will build parts/all of the Vista interface with vectors as
    opposed to bitmaps which will work better for a greater number of
    montiors (e.g. check out the windows XP boot splash bitmap on a
    large hi res montior....ewww!). However, this will not make a
    difference to resizing a captured image of the interface.
    For the purposes of this discussion let's say vectors are
    mathematical descriptions of what should be drawn (shape, outline,
    fill, gradient, etc) while bitmaps are images with a fixed number
    individually coloured of pixels/dots.
    Screenshots images are generally captured in a bitmap format.
    When you attempt to increase the overall dimensions of the image
    your image processing software makes a guess as to what color each
    pixel/dot must be in the resized image based on a sample from the
    original image and that's why they tend to look blurry. The better
    your software can guess/resample, then the better the resulting
    image.

  • Can I remove/delete Windows Presentation Foundation Plug-in, Just did a fresh install of XP and all updates

    Hi mikeinkent
    Your crash report indicate a problem with the Flash plugin (NPSWF32_11_5_502_146.dll).
    Please update Flash to the latest version.
    You can find the latest Flash player versions for Firefox on this page.
    *http://www.adobe.com/special/products/flashplayer/fp_distribution3.html
    *http://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer/downloads.html
    You can check for problems with current Flash plugin versions and try these:
    *disable a possible RealPlayer Browser Record Plugin extension for Firefox and update the RealPlayer if installed
    *disable protected mode in the Flash plugin (Flash 11.3+ on Windows Vista and later)
    *disable hardware acceleration in the Flash plugin

  • How can I trust Firefox as a reliable web browser when you allow companys like Microsoft install plugins like Windows Presentation Foundation with out permissio

    Microsoft had installed Windows Presentation Foundation without my permission and I smoking mad. This is bull crap I don't need. My web browser is personal to me and when companies stick their dirty little fingers in my computer without my permission it really PISS ME OFF. I don't kneed a web browser that allows this CRAP!!!!!

    Hi,
    The people who answer questions here, for the most part, are other Firefox users volunteering their time (like me), not Mozilla employees or Firefox developers.
    If you want to leave feedback for Firefox developers, you can go to the Firefox ''Help'' menu and select ''Submit Feedback...'' or use [https://input.mozilla.org/feedback this link]. (You'll need to be on the latest version of Firefox to submit feedback). Your feedback gets collected at http://input.mozilla.org/, where a team of people read it and gather data about the most common issues.
    Sorry!

  • What to do about Microsoft Office 2003, Windows Presentation Foundation & Google Update.

    I am not sure what to do about the following 3 third-party plugins. It appears that the Windows Presentation Foundation plugin "has a major security vulnerability that can be exploited by malicious websites as described in the Firefox Article "How to enable and disable Windows Presentation Foundation." It seems that the easiest way to deal with this plugin is to disable it via the add-ons manager. My question do the other two plugins pose security risks - should I disable them. I have tried to find additional information on all three plugins and cannot seem to ascertain whether they need to be updated or if, in fact, there are updates for these plugins. I am not sure if they are even compatible with Firefox, perhaps they been added to the Mozilla Add-ons block list. At any rate, any assistance would be greatly appreciated!
    The three plugins in question are:
    Microsoft Office 2003 Unkown ? Research Office plugin for Netscape Navigator plugin
    Windows Presentation Foundation Unknown ? Research
    (WPF) plugin for Mozilla Browsers plugin
    Google Update Unknown ? Research
    Google Update
    Thank you in advance.
    GAMKRTWCA

    hello, i have those plugins on my computer too but have always kept them disabled because i'm not exactly sure what functionality they offer - i have never encountered any site that would depend on them or would cause problems without them, so you can likely just disable them without any harm...

  • Windows Workflow Foundation and SAP Business One

    Does anyone here have any experience creating Windows Workflow Foundation (.NET 3.5) activities and workflows that interact with SAP Business One?
    A lot of examples in books show how easy it is to use workflows to write directly to a database, but we obviously cannot do that with SBO.
    I am most interested in where to place the code to log into the DI-API and how to pass that connection to the individidual activities.
    Thank you,
    Mike

    Michael,
    This could be done with some work using the DI Server and Business One Web Services (B1WS).  You can get more detail on B1WS from the Tools section of main SAP Business One page here on SDN ... although it does not go into WFS or WF.
    In the future when eSOA services are delivered for SAP Business One ... you will see that WF can be used much more easily.  This is an area that SAP is investigating ... keep a lookout on SDN!

  • Do I need Microsoft DRM or Windows Presentation Foundation plug-ins? Status is "unknown" and Action iis "research"

    The last "update" in the community on this topic was 2011... has anything changed?? Are there any updates to these plugins if we need to keep them??
    As these are significant Microsoft plugins, Mozilla should know about them... not a "Research" button.

    Also note that the Modified Preferences section in the System Details List shows a lot of preferences from older Firefox versions, so you can consider to delete a possible user.js file and numbered prefs-##.js files and rename (or delete) the prefs.js file to reset all prefs to the default value including prefs set via user.js and prefs that are no longer supported in the current Firefox release.
    You can use this button to go to the currently used Firefox profile folder:
    *Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Director: Show Folder (Linux: Open Director; Mac: Show in Finder)

  • ResourceDictionary is not supported in a Windows Presentation Foundation project

    On an existing project, on a new machine installation of Blend + Sketchflow, I have the error where ResourceDictionary is not recognized. Maddening.

    You can check your build action by selecting your resource dictionary in VS, and looking for the Build Property in the Properties Panel. However I'm thinking that may not be your culprit here. Is there any further info in your Error List besides just the
    one shown in your screen shot? I don't recall exactly if a clean / rebuild wipes your obj and bin folders but ya might want to delete those too to make sure to wipe your xap's and since all that stuff is re-created each time you build you dont care if you
    delete stuff in those folders anyway so couldnt hurt.

    I have gotten a step futher! The emulator had to be configured to run in the "secure" domain (as mentioned by some other people here), otherwise a http response "400 bad request (invalid header name)" was produced. J2ME web service is interoperable with WCF basichttpbinding (without debugging becuase it inserts unparseable soap-code into the http response)

  • Regarding to Windows Media Foundation?

    Hi All,

    Are those Link's sample code based on Window Media Foundation?
    It seems like, it is slightly different or completely based on different APIs. Isn't?
    some of those code didn't work as expect.

  • Hyper-v Role in Windows Server 2012 foundation and Essentials

    Hello,
    I have seen that the two low cost version of Windows Server 2012 essential and Foundation) will not support hyper-v. Can you please tell me what it means exactly :
    Can you please tell me what is possible :
    -The server can not be installed as a hyper-v  guest (probably yes)
    -The hyper-v role can not be installed on the server (so I have to rely on vmware)?
    - Hyper-v role can be installed but there is no free license included with the server.
    Thank you
    Marc

    I suppose then, you would have to install Windows 8 and Hyper-V as your guest or core.
    Then run your Server 2012 Foundation under Win8.  which has 512GB Memory Limit.
    It seems asinine that you cannot install this role on Foundation, but seemingly you could work around it with Win8.  (Or Sun Virtual Box (free) (or VmWare(Free).
    So load up a dozen Win8Pro virutal sessions on that Win8 VirtualBox with up to 512GB Memory and Create your own Ghetto Remote Desktop Server with Foundation and Windows 8.   ;)
    What good is it if your can't run Hyper-V and Remote desktop services?  Those are the two apps small business need most.  But Microsoft strips it out, calls it a DEAL  (Essentials and Foundation) , yet if you want the good stuff, you're gonna
    have to buy Server 2012 Standard anyhow, + the CALs.
    So you are hooked into this "deal" by Microsoft Special Offer.   Its special alright, because you get to buy it twice.  The stripped down version that come with your server, then the full version when you discover Foundatoin and Essentials gives
    you AD, and thats it.  Nothing Else.  No "deal"
    Remember:
    All you get with Foundation or Essentials is AD and Group Policy.
    You cannot load RDP on Foundation or Essentials
    You cannot load Exchange on a DC, or Foundation or Essentials
    You cannot load Exchange and RDP on the same box.
    You cannot have Remote Web Apps if you load RDP on your DC.
    You cannot win with Microsoft.  No worthwhile "deal" has ever come out of the city of Redmond.
    The internet is a one-way money pipeline to Microsoft.
    Its three times the work, three times the cost and requires three servers licenses to do with 2012, what you could do with one 2008R2 license.  
    Might as well purchase 2 Server 2013 Standard Editions if you want:
    1.) Active Directory
    2.) Remote Desktop and Remote Apps
    3.) Your own Exchange Server
    You are better off installing a NAS if all you need is a file server. 
    Why bother with Foundation or Essentials?  Its a "Gimmick-ware"
