    - Alternate Function for CreateFile on .NET Framework,... Hi all, sorry for Crossposting, but i dont know whether someone can help me here. If i remember right, there was a Class or a Member function in the .NET Framework that could do mostly the same as CreateFile can do for me, but i cant remember its Name. By saying the "same" i mean i was able to use it to open Handles to Devices and anything that could be opened with CreateFile and had a Symbolic Name that has been exported from Kernel to User-Space. But i cant remember the class/member name. I am sure there was something inside the .NET FW and natively supported by the .NET. AFAIK it was also something MS used internally in its base classes, but it was exposed to any programmer and was public/static or whatever available from the CLR/.NET. I really cant remember its name, but i used something in the past years ago for opening something, if i remember right to a drive. I think i used it the first time with .NET 2.0... Anybody can help me here, or am i remembering something wrong?

    - Professional design advice needed Hi, We have an events page in our company that's database driven and we need to shared it with our partners. They need to pull information from our site. They can be running asp, php, .jsp..etc. I was thinking of using a web services and returning datatable (maybe to XML). Is that the best approach? Or should I just take it as a Url parameter and return an XML file? Any suggestions here would really help me. I really appreciate your input on this. Thanks Tag: MY MOUTH IS CRAZY Tag: 229961

    - Apparent Rogue Process During the course of today I have noticed a considerable degredation in system performance. On checking task manager I have found a process ("agent.exe") that is running and gradually using more and more memory. Having checked MSCONFIG this would not appear to be a start-up process. However, when I terminate the process, it automatically restarts and repeats the memory hugging all over again. How can I :- 1) Establish what is triggering this process and 2) Prevent it from running. Thanks, -- Gary Tag: MY MOUTH IS CRAZY Tag: 229956

    - WebService and Timeout Hi. I'm dealing with scenario when call to any web method ends up with timeout and I try to add the user a chance to retry (wait a little bit) My service proxy code looks like this: AsyncCallback cb = new AsyncCallback(ServiceCallback); IAsyncResult result1 = BeginInvoke(methodName, parameters, cb, this); if(result1.IsCompleted == false) { while(true) { bTO = result1.AsyncWaitHandle.WaitOne(Timeout, true); if(bTO == false)//time out occured { //display window and ask the user to wait a moment, user press OK when it sure that web method finished } if(result1.IsCompleted) break; } object[] ret = EndInvoke(result1);// error every time when time out occured (bTO = false) } My scenario is following: 1. BeginInvoke initialize asynch web method call 2. WaitOne waits for Timeout miliseconds 3. WaitOne returns false because timeout occured, and wait screen is displayed. When user close it the web methos is finished. 4. result1.IsCompleted is true so I expect that EndInvoke shall return the results but it throws excpetion "timeout" !!!. Why? Everything works fine if timeout doesn't occure. Thanks for any advise Shark Tag: MY MOUTH IS CRAZY Tag: 229954

    - SQL installation:"Login failed for user 'sa'" I want to install SQL express edition on a laptop with vista home basic, but I faced a lot of problems.I have this error: SQL Setup could not connect to the database service for server configuration. The error was:[Microsoft][SQL Native client][SQL Server] Login failed for user 'sa'.refer to server error logs ans setup logs for more information. I went to Microsoft 'help and support center'. I found a page that describes my problem. it is available at 'bug#431174'. It said that I must delete some specific temporary files and goto SQL configuration Manager and start the SQL Server services. I delete those files, but I couldn't start the "MSSQLSERVER" in SQL configuration Manager. I tried to do that. It was going to be started, but in the middle of the progress, it stopped. I do it several times, but it did not start. I think the main problem that I can't install SQL Server is: I can't make the MSSQLSERVER start.what can I do?Please help me!

    - XP Home Boot Loop Working on a computer with XP Home Edition. Suspected virus activity. Loaded AV & AS programs and ran scans. Deleted a lot of spyware, Trojans and virus'. Rebooted and working fine. Did MS update for IE7 and about 7-8 other items. After update, was asked to reboot. Now, box is locked in a boot loop. I have tried going into Last Known Good, Safe Mode and Safe Mode with Networking. Nothing will let me in, stuck in loop. I have booted from XP disk and ran CHKDSK /r and repaired. STILL loops. I ran it in Safe Mode with Command Prompt and it stops at the Drivers\Mup.sys screen before rebooting. This tells me I have a bad driver load during the MS update. HOW do I get rid of this loop, reset my driver files or reset XP to original without losing the rest of the files, programs and configuration? TAOT. Tag: MY MOUTH IS CRAZY Tag: 229920

    - Considering .NET, a few questions Hi all, My company is looking to convert our current Delphi (Win32) application to a web based app. I'm looking into either ASP .NET via C# or PHP. Our current app would best be described as a membership and pos system. We access printers, scanners, barcode readers, cameras, etc. I've already read the multitude of articles regarding ASP vs PHP, so I'm not questioning that so much. I'm more interested in finding out what I need to know before starting this project. 1. I'm looking for a good class in ASP .NET / C#. I'm located in South Florida and have only been able to find classes by a company name HOTT (Hands On Technology Training). Can't really find much info on them, so I don't think it's a good idea to start there. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated. I don't have a problem traveling, and wouldn't mind an online course, as long as I have the ability to communicate with an instructor and other participants. I feel I learn more from talking to other developers than just following a course outline. 2. Can anyone recommend any links with articles about moving to a web based app? IE. security considerations, server requirements, etc. 3. Any database recommendations? We're currently using Interbase. I'd really like to make sure that this move is executed with the broadest knowledge possible. I'm very concerned about security issues since we store banking & personal information. I'm looking to launch the app in it's 'own' browser outside of the regular tabbed browsing environment. I'd much rather get it right the first time, as opposed to realizing too late that I'm headed down the wrong path. So, any suggestions on where I should start? Areas I need to put more focus on? I know this is kind of a general question, but this is new territory for me. Seems like there are a lot of things to consider. TIA! Tag: MY MOUTH IS CRAZY Tag: 229918

    - Limiting the amount of Text within a Text Box I am building a template which has an area for the user to type in whatever information is needed (a form, narrative, whatever). However, I have a limited amount of space on the 1st page of the form. I have tried using a cell with exact measurements and I have tried using a text box (but you can't set permissions on linked text boxes and this "open space" is the only place a user is allowed to type in information. Does anyone know of a way to prevent the typist from continuing to type once the border of the cell or text box has been reached? Both the cell and text box allow the typist to keep typing although you can no longer see the information being typed in. Tag: MY MOUTH IS CRAZY Tag: 229896

    - ClickOnce exception in IE Our app uses the following chain of urls: 1. yoursite.com/launch.php?room=00000271 - validates the roomid appends an appropriate server variable and encrypts and adds a hash and sends on to #2 2. mysite.com/launch.php decodes the encryption and compares hash for alteration. Re-encodes and redirects to #3 3. clickonceinstaller.application?encoded variables here All redirects are done with: header("Cache-Control: no-cache"); header("Pragma: no-cache"); header('Location: ' . $url); If I open IE and type in the starting link I get the clickonce app with no problems. If I leave the browser open and do it again (type in the url) I get: Cannot continue. The application is improperly formatted. Details reveal: the manifest may not be valid or the file could not be opened. + There are multiple root elements. Line 1, position 122. And I notice that I get a HTTP response of 206 instead of 200.

    - Possessed pointer My pointer has suddenly become possessed. When I click in a Word document, instead of placing the cursor there, it highlights the nearest word. When I click again, it won't unhighlight the word. And when I move the pointer, it drags the word around the document. Same thing happens in Outlook with e-mail, i.e., any message I click on it grabs and tries to drag. Also happens on the Web. And things I normally click on once to activate, I must now click on twice. Draglock is turned off. Pointer was working fine a few days ago. I have Windows XP. Tag: MY MOUTH IS CRAZY Tag: 229891

    - Microsoft.Naming: CA1703 While using VS2008, I have a word that is beging flaged by the static code analysis tool as a violation of CA1703, ResourceStringsShouldBeSpelledCorrectly. I have added the word to my CustomDictionary.xml file and set it's build action to "CodeAnalysisDictionary". I still get the error. The word is actually an abbreviation: ECN which means "Engineering Change Notice." In my case, I need to refer to the ECN in the plural, so I have it written as "ECNs" which is correct according to to Microsoft Manual of Style V3 which states "form the plural of an acronum by adding an s with no apostrophe." It further gives the examples of "APIs" and "CPUs" as correct plural abreviations. Following this rule, "ECNs" is correct, but try as I might, I cannot get the Visual Studio Static Code Analysis tool to stop complaining about "ECNs". If I spell it in all uppercase as "ECNS" it's happy, but with the "s" is lowercase, it complains. Is there a solution short of using the SuppressMessage attribute? Tag: MY MOUTH IS CRAZY Tag: 229888

    - Develop GUI for Windows Service Hi, I have developed a Windows Service using .NET. The service connects with a server using TCP/IP. When the Service receives a message it process this message like making some database entries etc. Now I want to develop a GUI. Which will monitor the Service and will display the messages received from server on some RichTextBox type control. What I am thinking to do this is to log the messages received from server into some file and in GUI use FileSystemWatcher control to monitor the file and on file change reload the file into the GUI. But now I am being asked to make the GUI such a way that when the GUI is started it must not load all the messages received before the GUI launch. It must only display the messages received after the GUI Launch. So I am not sure what to do for this new requirement. I think I will have to do some remoting like thing. Kindly help me to resolve this issue. Thanks in anticipation. Regards, Ahmad Jalil Qarshi Tag: MY MOUTH IS CRAZY Tag: 229881

    - Help With Program Created XML Schema Good Morning. I'm trying to create a xml file and schema file for my boss to upload the information into Sharepoint. Everytime when he uploads the xml file it notices there's no schema and I'm automatically generating the file; so I decided to programmatically create a schema file. It's a simple file and it's works accept for the last elements . Instead of writing </xsd:element> and </xsd:schema> it places the namespace in the schema tag and name attribute in the element closing tag. I've tried xmlTextWriter.WriteRaw and .WriteString but it doesn't indent correctly. How can I get these tags to be generated as I described earlier? Below is the code (xsdWriter is XmlTextWriter object): xsdWriter.Formatting = Formatting.Indented; xsdWriter.Indentation = 4; xsdWriter.WriteStartDocument(); string xsdNS = "xmlns:xsd=" + @"""http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"""; xsdWriter.WriteStartElement("xsd:schema " + xsdNS); xsdWriter.WriteStartElement("xsd:element name=" + @"""main"""); xsdWriter.WriteStartElement("xsd:complexType"); xsdWriter.WriteStartElement("xsd:sequence"); for (int field = 0; field <= tablesnames.Length - 1; field++) { xsdWriter.WriteStartElement("xsd:element name=" + @"""" + tablesnames[field] + @"""" + " type=" + @"""xsd:string"""); xsdWriter.WriteEndElement(); } xsdWriter.WriteEndElement(); //sequence xsdWriter.WriteEndElement(); //complextype xsdWriter.WriteEndElement(); xsdWriter.WriteEndElement(); I'm trying to generate: <schema xsd:....> <element name="main"> <complexType> <sequence> <xsd:sequence.... /> </sequence> </complexType> </xsd:element> -- Problem node </xsd:element name="main"> </xsd:schema> --Problem node </xsd:schema .........> -- TC Tag: MY MOUTH IS CRAZY Tag: 229877

    - Multi-thread question with Singleton Sorry this is so long winded, but here goes. Following the model of http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.runtime.remoting.channels.ipc.ipcchannel.aspx I made a remote object using the IpcChannel Class (vs 2005, vb, fw 2.0). Everyting works fine. The object is registered with WellKnownObjectMode.Singleton The remote object appears at the bottom of this posting. The code is deliberately obtuse to expose an issue about when and how single and multiple threading happen. With a 2 second delay via threading.sleep (blocking) or a coded while loop (non-blocking), and with clients calling OneUp in rapid succession, the behavior I see is as follows: 1. With the 2 second delay via while loop (ie threading.sleep is commented out), multiple client calls to OneUp stack up, and every 2 seconds a call is completed. In other words, it looks like .net/windows single threads the calls to OneUp. There is no reentrancy. 2. With the 2 second delay via threading.sleep (ie while loop is commented out), ONE client application behaves like #1 above. 3. With the 2 second delay via threading.sleep (ie while loop is commented out), MULTIPLE client applications get tangled up. While the sleep of the first call to OneUp is running, the second call is allowed to happen, and thus the functionality of OneUp fails. If the two clients invoke OneUp at least 2 seconds apart, all is well. If they run in rapid succession, they both return the same value, ie they run multi-threaded because OneUp is re-entered. To make things work right, I would have to apply some form of thread coordination, eg Interlocked.Increment would suffice in this case. So, when the singleton remote object does a Sleep, its behavior is different than if it does not do a Sleep. Or am I fooling myself in this observation? The Sleep is one kind of thread blocking - will the behavior change if a different kind of blocking happens? How about a WebRequest? How can I guarantee that a sub in a class does not block? Or maybe throws an exception if it does block? The reason for these questions is as follows. I would like to avoid coding multithread coordination in all the methods that will ultimately be in the singleton remote object. I know how to do it if I have to, but I don't want to. What I want my singleton remote object to do is be single threaded and non-reentrant. If one client is using a remote function, I want others to block. Can it be done? The remote object is as follows: Public Class SingletonRemoteObject Inherits MarshalByRefObject Private iOneUp As Integer Public Function OneUp() As Integer Dim k As Integer = iOneUp + 1 Dim dt As DateTime = Now.AddSeconds(2) 'While Now < dt : End While ' non-blocking 2 second delay System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(2000) ' blocking 2 second delay iOneUp = k Return k End Function End Class Tag: MY MOUTH IS CRAZY Tag: 229876

    - Bind to events raised from win service in desktop app Hi, I need to create a win service that lookup a file ina folder, ands when received, read it then fir an event. Then I need a desktop app that, when runs, bind to the event from the win service, and when the event fires, read the eventarg data and do some processing with. Can anyone point me to the right direction to do this? I will use filesystemwatcher to detect when file changes, but don't know from there I know how to do this with COM (the service is a com obj defining an interface and the desktop app implements that interface and bind to the running service), but not sure how to do it in NET Any advice or suggestion is appreciated.

    - Restarting a service from within itself using ServiceController I've written a windows service am unsure how we're meant to handle fatal errors once the service is already up and running. It also doesn't seem to be mentioned in any of the books or examples I've seen. Most example services, if they encounter an error, simply stop processing but stay active. The route I've taken to avoid that is, on catching a fatal exception, I create a ServiceController instance and issue a Stop command. This then shuts down the service properly. On the other hand, I'd also like to be able to restart the service. It stands to reason I can't issue a stop followed by testing the status and then starting it again ... because of course my own process can't finish stopping while I'm in it waiting :) So, what are we meant to do? (Unfortunately, in this circumstance, we're interfacing with an unmanaged DLL that, when it has an error, doesn't come back properly until you restart the process that has called it).

    - file names are changing case arbitrarily I am using Windows XP SP2. I have noticed that a file saved with lower case letters will be changed to upper case at some point. I first noticed this when using bluebeam PDF software to make PDF's of CAD drawings. They have a batch lits utility that allows you to save a list of the files and reuse this list when you want to print another set of PDF's of the same CAD drawings. The utility, I have found is case sensative and will skip any file that the text case has changed. Does anyone know if this is a windows or software program issue? Tag: MY MOUTH IS CRAZY Tag: 229858

    - Writing Shell Extensions / Extending Explorer Context Menu - XP 64 I am in the process of upgrading to XP 64. VS2008 is running fine but one of my apps, which adds functionality to the Explorer context menu, just won't work under XP 64. Googling resulted in my finding an article saying that MSFT recommends against writing shell extensions in managed code and does not consider them a supported scenario. So, can anybody point me to any articles relating to writing shell extensions in non managed code specifically for XP 64? I am beginning to think that XP 64 is a bit of a Cinderella OS, although the advent of Vista has, at least, been responsible for the appearance of 64 bit drivers that previously didn't exist! -- Jeff Gaines Tag: MY MOUTH IS CRAZY Tag: 229854

    - Custom Import Wizzard My project will require the user to import data (registered Voters) from a text file. This text file will be created by thier county's Board of Elections & thus be formatted differently county by county, generally with columns in differing order. Also some counties will provide less/more data than others. So I want to write (or include) an import wizard (kind of like SQL Server has) that will map the source columns to the destination columns, upon the first & subsequent loads. The reason I want to do it this way is primarily becasue I'm using the SQL Compact Edition as the DB & there is no supplied import method for this. So is there any place (I did spend most of the morning searching the web with no luck) where i can get sample code, directions, a book or anything to get me started down the right path?

However, I am having a real headache when it comes to deploying my application. I usualy build my MSI using InstallShield and have added the dll and it's associated tlb to the package. However when I attempt to run the released application on a test machine it fails with an error 429. If I run the application in debug mode, if breaks the first time it attempts to reference anything to do with my new class library.

    - Converting PDF to TIFF I am looking for some good solution to convert PDF files to TIFF (which in turn will be stored in a database). I know there are a bunch of commercial options out there but most are to expensive or has a per client licensing which is not only a cost problem but a nightmare to deal with (our customer adding new user to the application etc). A very good option is to use Ghostscript. It does everything I want (and more), even if I have to run the exe to do the conversion. One problem with GS though is the licensing, it is only free if your own application is licensed to the public with a GNU GPL license. It would also be nice with a pure .NET assembly component. Another option is to use a TIFF printer driver. However it must be possible to completly run it without any user intervention (not having to specify a file name etc). Also my application will run in some environment which is very restrictive when it comes to installing stuff on workstations so installing a printer driver might add some extra installation issues. Also all commercial printer drivers I have seen are either to expensive (like one that was $2000) or per user licensing. Is there any open source/public domain printer drivers? I both need to convert pdf files created by someone else and to create TIFF files out of reports created in Crystal Reports (output report to PDF and then convert to tiff). I guess the best option is to use some kind of PDF to tiff converter because there are a lot of application/components (like Crystal Report) which can output to PDF.
