What does "reasistic" mean? I'm working on amd64bit 3200 + 1gb ram and found
it rather suitable for work.

Mantorok,
"Realistic" , regardless of what the specs promoted by Microsoft are, is a
subjective issue. You could have a "Realistic" box running Active Directory,
Sql Server, and Exchange server on it and find that it isn't quite suitable.

I have.
What's wrong with them? :)
The level of comfortability is different for each of us.
For one 1600x1200 on 22" panel is realistic, for another it's hard to turn
his head so and he use 1024x768 on his laptop.
One install antivirus, mallware, spyware tools and wonder why 2Ghz proc is
too slow, another is happy with 1.5Ghz proc without unnecessary tools

In which case the box wouldn't be realistic :-)
I understand it's subjective, but I've had VS running on a laptop (P4
2.4Ghz, 1Gb ram) and it's running like a pig swimming in treacle,
particularly for ASP.Net development.
You'd think that spec was enough, but it's horrendously slow.
Kev
Everything depends how much you RAM is currently used by other applications.
How much CPU is used. Maybe some apps hungs your machine
These could be verified via TaskManager. And add "Virtual Memmory Size"
column to it too.
laptop HDD could hinder performance too, because in general 2.5" laptop's
HDD are too slow, about in 2 times than desktop one

The single biggest factor is RAM. I'd recommend as much as your system can
handle - up to 2Gb for 32 bit versions of Windows. The more RAM you have
the better the performance of the VS IDE and debugger.

I agree with this. VS2005 seems to be a huge memory hog - PARTICULARLY when
you have ASP.NET pages open (designer pages). For some reason that jumps it
up rather drasticalyl.

This is why I asked, ASP.Net dev was real slow, I've now got 1.5Gb at the
moment on a Pentium M 2Ghz processor and it seems to run really well.
I was just interested to see what people are finding acceptable.

Hi,
I recently upsized my access database to an ADP project with SQL
backend. However when I did it the import/export specs were not ported
to the new database. Also in the ADP files I am unable to create new
import/export specs. The option is greyed out. I need to use the specs
with the TransferText function.
How can I get around this issue?

the realistic specs for a laptop, so that my development is speedy and I
am not waiting around for the complex 3rd party controls to render
themselves in the design view. Let's assume for the moment that money
is no problem.

The startup is pretty bad - even though I changed VS to display an empty
environment. When I create a new form and want to change its size:
while I am resizing, an hour glass comes up for a few seconds.
There a lot of other slowdowns all over the system. It seems like it the
hard drive kicks in really hard.
Now I did have the VS2005 beta installed, but I uninstalled it...

Hi everybody;
I am exporting a table to a new txt file by using MS access 2000. But as you know we can save our export specs, and next time we can call it and can use it once more. But in my Access I can not save my complex export specs. I press the save button, everything seems OK but next time again I can not find the saved export specs.
Do you know what is the path for saved export specs?
thanks.

OK, I'll admit it up front - I just don't get it.
Here's our previous VS2003 development model. Developers develop the WS
solution on their own workstations, using their own IIS web servers mapped
to the local devleopment folder. Project compiles to a subfolder .\bin. To
deploy, the asmx page and bin subfolder are copied to the production server.
So now I upgrade to VS2005. OK, so except for the name, everything is
changed. No more...

What I'd like to do and what I tought possible was to have a deque of string when the string was a reference (not a pointer)
Then I simply tried:
std::deque<std::string const &> mFifo;
But, the compiler have some trouble with this at the first try.
From what I know, template is a powerful mecanism an STL a well programmed library. I'm using VS2005 but STLPort seems with a quick look to suffer the same problem I will discuss shortly.

I've got a system where I try to install extensions using
/usr/local/bin/python setup.py install
But, it fails when it tries to use a non-existant compiler path
and specs file. I suspect it's trying to use the compieler
that was used to build /usr/bin/python.
How do I get it to use the compiler settings that were used for
/usr/local/bin/python?

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
