setup project - VS 2008 created shortcut doesn't show up in "Send To" menu -

-

I created WinForms app using a Visual Studio 2008. I added a setup project for the solution to create an installation MSI file. I need the setup project, which will be sent to the user's menu. This way when someone right clicks on a file, my app will be shown in the send list and selected.

Under the File System Settings of the Setup Project, I found out how to add a shortcut to the Send User menu. The problem is, the shortcut does not appear in the Send menu when you right-click on a file. If I manually create a shortcut for your executable shows in the Send Application menu

I have read many tips on the web for the necessary registry entries to work on it, a VBS file written by Ramesh Srinivasan Is that which inserts them. On every system I have already installed it on the registry values, so it is not the problem seems to be making Visual Studio (or MSI anyway) with shortcut

I have the same problem on Windows XP and Windows 7, I have not seen it on other OS yet.

Send menu requires that the shortcut be a regular shortcut pointing to an executable. Shortcuts are advertised to the shortcuts created by Visual Studio during the creation of MSI, advertised shortcuts do not indicate the executable installed, but by enabling installation-on-demand, MSI installer.

You must set the property on MSI to create a regular shortcut. Unfortunately, you have to use a post build event on the installer to set up a DISABLEADVTSHORTCUTS property - Visual Studio does not provide an easy way to set it up Does.

See responses by Damien Wagel how to set up a post build event.

windows - Heroku throws SQLITE3 Read only exception -

After I deploy the app to Heroku, I have to run migration scripts and get this error message ... ITES \ padrino \ prophetmargin & gt; Heroku Rack AR: Rack mutated! SQLite3 :: ReadOnlyException: only one try to write database to read: CREATE TABLE "schema_migrations" ( "version" varchar (255) NOT NULL) /disk1/home/slugs/215264_925fd2c_65a3/mnt/.bundle/gems/gems/ padrino-core- is 0.9.11 / lib / padrino-core / cli / rake.rb: 9: in `init ' how can this be? I also tried to run Heroku dbpush SQLite: //db/my-db.db and that did not work Horoku sqlite3 but using postgres does not do. I'm not sure why you are receiving this error, however, as I have used sqlite3 in development and when pushing it into its travel, they do some magic which migrates to postgrads. I'm absolutely sure how Heroku does 'backwash' this database but it seems that this is happening to you because it's the SQLite db file which is obviously due to Heroku's

lex - Building a lexical Analyzer in Java -

-
I am currently learning lexical analysis in compiler design. To know how a lexical analyzer actually works, I am trying to build myself. I am planning to make it in Java The input to the lexical analyzer is a .tex file that is of the following format. \ section {script} {intro} \ section {Scope} arbitrary text \ section {relevance} uncontrolled text \ subdivision (profit) arbitrary text \ subsubsection {in real life} \ subdivision {Ingredient} \ end {document} The output of the lecture may be a table of contents with a page number in another file. 1 Introduction 1 1.1 Scope 1 1.2 Relevance 2 1.2.1 Benefits 2 1.2.1.1 Real life 2 1.2.2 loss 3 I hope that This problem is within the scope of Language Analysis Read the .exe file and check '\' and continue to check whether it is actually on search In the sectioning command is set to indicate whether or not a flag variable is the type of sectioning. I hope the above approach will work for the construction of Lexa

python - rename keys in a dictionary -

-
I want to change the names of keys in a dictionary which are ints, and I need them so that the inputs with key zero They can sort correctly. For example, my keys are like this: '1', '101', '11' and I may need them: '001', '101', '011' What is doing, but I know that there is a better way tmpDict = {} in the ADC for the old: t MpDict ['% 04d'% int (olden)] = addict [oldkey] New controlled = tmpDict You are going wrong about this if you want to draw entries on a line in a specific way, then you have to sort on the extraction. for sorted (D, key = int): print '% s:% R'% (k, d [k]) < / Div>
