I've made some modifications to Enterprise Library and would like to create the msdn documentation for my changes (which have been documented using code comments following the same patterns that the P&P guys use)...since these assemblies will be used by my co-workers, the MSDN docs should be updated to reflect my changes as well....

    - Thread-safety: Change property of items in arraylist versus removing I have an arraylist, OrderList, in which each item in the arraylist is an Order object. At the beginning of my program, I read from an input file to create the OrderList. Then I launch several threads for different operations related to OrderList. Thread #1: "OnOrderFilled" method is REMOVING an order from the arraylist once the order is filled. Thread #1: "OnOrderCancelled" method is changing the property of an order once the order is cancelled. Thread #2: "ActivateOrder" method loops through each order in OrderList and sends out the orders. Here's the problem - When "ActivatOrder" sends out orders (please note that it takes time to send out orders), some orders may be filled at the same time; so the "OnOrderFilled" method on Thread #1 is fired which REMOVES the orders from OrderList that are filled, and this affects "ActivateOrder" method that loops through OrderList. I get "Collection was modified" exception. To get this fixed, I was thinking of instead of REMOVING order from OrderList that causes "Collection was modified" error, I should add a property to each Order called "IsFilled" so that I CHANGE "IsFilled" to true when an order is filled. My question is -- Will changing the property in "OnOrderFilled" method cause any thread-safety issue for "ActivateOrder" method? Thanks! Tag: Office 2007 Tag: 232176

    - Obtain CA Certificate? For some reason my application now requires that I "Sign the ClickOnce manifests". I don't know that it ever has before. I clicked the "Create Test Certificate" and after a reinstall everything is hunky dorey. Now I am trying to obtain a certificate that is "trusted" and I don't know how to go about doing that. I understand that my temporary certificate will expire in a year, I'd rather go through the reinstall now rather than wait a year and forget what needs doing. That being said, can someone provide a link or information to where I can obtain a trusted CA certificate? Sorry if this question is mind-bogglingly simple. -- stullhe104 Tag: Office 2007 Tag: 232173

    - serializable Hash class in .Net ****This message has been posted in microsoft.public.dotnet.framework several days before and received no reply, so I post it here, sorry if you get duplicate messages**** Hi, all: I'm new to .Net, so don't laugh at my questions if they sound silly. Here it comes, I want to utilize classes in .Net framework namespace, such as system.collections. Things become simple if I'm coding in C#( just using ... ), however, I'm modifying a C++ program, and, it's MFC supported. I think what I should do is to import corresponding libs to introduce classes and namespaces in .Net framework. Am I right? That's the first question. The second is, importing libs seems tricky, there're few examples I could follow, is it better for me to build a COM/DLL with C# so that I could just call it in C++? It would be more convenient if some background is supplied. My object is to use a serializable hash class to store a large amount of URLs. It must be serializable, so that at the first time, I could build hash with URLs as keys, then dump the hash into a file. From then on, when I get a new URL, first I should load the hash from the file, next, I could check it among the URLs for existance, rebuild hash could be avoided. As to my situation, which hash class is suitable? I've got system.collections.hashtable, and some System.Security.Policy.hash, ... Thanks a lot for you help. Tag: Office 2007 Tag: 232163

    - Unable to start Automatic Update Hello. System: Win XP Media Centre Edition â?? Service Pack 3 Somehow, I picked up a variant of VirtuMonde; Symantec Anti-virus, Spybot Search & Destroy etc did not locate it; I discovered it by chance using Windows Sysinternals Process Explorer. I ran Vundo Fix 7.0.0.6 and it removed three traces of VirtuMonde, I then rebooted and ran Vundo Fix 7.0.0.6 again, this time it found nothing. However, I noticed that Automatic Update was disabled. Irrespective of how many so-called â??fixesâ?? I try, I cannot enable it in via Services. When I set it to automatic and click start, I receive the following message: Could not start the Automatic Updates service on Local Computer. Error 1058: The service cannot be started, either because it is disabled or because it has no enabled devices associated with it. How do I associate a device with it? If I do the former, is it likely to help? Has anybody found a solution to this problem< I am open to all suggestions. I shall thank everybody in advance for any help with this matter. Regards, Pseu.

    - When and how to set a boolean variable to true? I have following code: void DownloadLists () { if (!mIsListsDownloaded) { // Loop -- Downloading entries for each list foreach (ITritonList list in TritonListManager.GetLists(true)) { list.OpenEntries(new ListDataReadyDelegate(OnEntriesDownloaded)); } // Wrong in here, because the entries are not downloaded at this time!!! mIsListsDownloaded = true; } } void OnEntriesDownloaded(IGridList list) { foreach (IGridEntry entry in list.Entries) { mEntries.Add(entry); } loggerCash.LogMessageBarMessage(ESeverity.Detail, "Finished downloading entries on list " + list.Name.ToString()); } The task is to download entries on each list for multiple lists and then set "mIsListsDownloaded" to true. It's important that the action "OnEntriesDownloaded" be completed for all of the lists before "mIsListsDownloaded" is set to true. I've found this a technical challenge - The delegate method "OnEntriesDownloaded" takes time to complete. Also, since "OnEntriesDownloaded" is called for each list and there are multiple lists, it is called multiple times and it takes significant amount of time (about 6 seconds, could take even longer depending on how busy the system is) to complete. Now the question is that when shall I set "mIsEntriesDownloaded" to true? I want to wait for 8 seconds because by that time, all of the entries should have been downloaded. However, there is no guarantee because sometimes the system takes much longer. I also don't know the C# syntax of waiting for 8 seconds and then set "mIsListsDownloaded" to true. Could anyone help?

    - Optional parameter I have two methods that are almost identical, except for the "HtmlLogger varLogger" parameter passed to #2. In #1, it uses a default HtmlLogger "logger" while in #2, it uses "varLogger" parameter. Other than that, the two methods are identical. I would like to combine the two methods into a single method, but I wish to know: - How to identify the optional parameter in the method; and - When there is no optional parameter passed to the method, how to set the default as "logger". Method #1: void PublishNegativeAlpha ( IGridEntry entry) { try { foreach (NegativeAlphaForEntry negA in mNegativeAList) { if (negA.List == entry.List.Name && negA.Ticker == entry.Ticker && negA.TargetShares == entry.TargetShares) { ESide side = entry.TargetSide; string strSide = GetSideString(side); if (negA.Side == strSide) { NegativeAlpha neg = new NegativeAlpha(); neg.ObjectId = entry.ObjectId; neg.NegativeStatus = "Negative Alpha"; CustomObjectManager.Publish(neg, PublishMode.Regular); logger.LogMessageBarMessage(ESeverity.Detail, "Published negative alpha for ticker " + negA.Ticker); break; } } } } catch (Exception e) { logger.LogMessageBarMessage(ESeverity.Error, e.Message); } } Method #2: void PublishNegativeAlpha ( IGridEntry entry, HtmlLogger varLogger) { try { foreach (NegativeAlphaForEntry negA in mNegativeAList) { if (negA.List == entry.List.Name && negA.Ticker == entry.Ticker && negA.TargetShares == entry.TargetShares) { ESide side = entry.TargetSide; string strSide = GetSideString(side); if (negA.Side == strSide) { NegativeAlpha neg = new NegativeAlpha(); neg.ObjectId = entry.ObjectId; neg.NegativeStatus = "Negative Alpha"; CustomObjectManager.Publish(neg, PublishMode.Regular); varLogger.LogMessageBarMessage(ESeverity.Detail, "Published negative alpha for ticker " + negA.Ticker); break; } } } } catch (Exception e) { varLogger.LogMessageBarMessage(ESeverity.Error, e.Message); } } Tag: Office 2007 Tag: 232150

Usually when I start a project I use them for everything, but stop using them as often after the "meat n' potatos" of the project is finished. I am thinking it would be useful to at least have a blanket try-catch to surround all of the code, and add more to aid in debugging and catching specific exceptions.

I've even tried dim li as ListItem for each li in chkboxlist li.attributes.add("onchange", "dothat();") next but it still renders to the table that the chkboxlist creates rather than the items.

Hi, I think i've got the idea about impersonation after reading many articles about it but the one thing i'm not sure about is what is the effect of remming out the whole identity imperonate=?? line? Does this default to impersonate=false or, impersonate =true, or something else? <M> Tag: Office 2007 Tag: 232074

    - slow computer My computer used to be very fast, opening programs in less than a second... now something has changed, and it takes between 1-5 minutes to open programs.... i can't defrag my computer, because it fails halfway through, because of the slow speed. i don't know what to do.... except that because of how slow it is, most of the time i'd rather just leave it off... but i have work to do, so i bear it with a large grain of salt.... is there a(ny) solution(s) out there?

    - What's wring with this try-catch block? This is freaking me out. I'm using Membership and trying to determine if the database is online. The GetConnectionString( ) method returns a connection string as expected but not when used in the try block. I have the Open() and Close() methods commented out while using the Response.Redirect to test. The code in the try block as shown will --never execute-- but the code in the catch block --always executes-- whether the database is online or not. WTF??? protected void LoginButton_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) { // Redirect proves this test works //Response.Redirect(ResolveUrl("~/homepage.aspx?LoginButton_Click")); SqlConnection testConnection = new SqlConnection(GetConnectionString("MyConnectionString")); if (!String.IsNullOrEmpty(testConnection.ToString())) { try { //testConnection.Open(); //testConnection.Close(); Response.Redirect(ResolveUrl("~/homepage.aspx?MyConnectionString-Found")); } catch (Exception ex) { Response.Redirect(ResolveUrl("~/homepage.aspx?LoginButton_Click-Caught-Exception")); } } } Tag: Office 2007 Tag: 232067

    - COM+ COmponet Disable Event? I have a COM+ application made up of 3 components. In the Component Services UI on the Win2003 server, I can right-click and disable any Component. Then I can right-click and enable it again. I want to do something when that happens. How can I trap that event? I guess it would be good to know how to trap the event for enabling/disabling an Application too. Thanks. Tag: Office 2007 Tag: 232066

    - How can I manage/encapsulate failures of an Active X control I have an Active-X control provided by a vendor that will inadvertenly crash while processing. The good part is that I do have a way to save information routinely as it is processing in the event it crashes. From there I can start over and I can eventually finish the process. My problem is that at this stage I have been doing this manually, but now I have to come up with an automated solution. What I want is to have my program run, save the data at increments and restart when the Active- X control crashed without the user ever knowing it. My mayor concern which is also the main question. Is how to do it the best way, and if there is a possibility for memory leaks.? The problem with a memory leak is that eventually the spawning process may not work and it would default to the original behaviour of crashing in the middle of the process. I would normally want to call the process using a regular procedure call instead of a command line call. But it may be that the command line islates the processes better. I am asigning "Nothing" to the Active-X object at the end of the run, and I also have a try block to make sure the asignment runs. Thanks in advance for any help.

    - P/Invoke Problem selected index changing I'm writing a .net application that will update several textboxes and comboboxes on a 2nd app (3rd party-no source). I have the part that is updating the textboxes and comboboxes working pretty well. The problem is that it looks like they have the some events tied to one of the comboxes selected_index_changed events so that it changes one of the textboxes to a combobox or vice-versa. When I enter something in a the combo manually and tab out the 2nd control changes, but this does _not_ happen when I use my api calls. I've tried setting the focus through api calls, but this doesn't do anything either. Is there someway to fire the app's combo event. I'm a little stuck here, and would appreciate any suggestions. Some code: Private Const WM_SETTEXT As Int32 = &HC Private Const CB_SETCURSEL As Long = &H14E Private Const CB_FINDSTRING as long = &H14C Public Const WM_SETFOCUS As Long = &H7 Private Const WM_PASTE As Long = &H302 Private Declare Function SendMessageByString Lib "user32.dll" Alias "SendMessageA" _ (ByVal hwnd As IntPtr, _ ByVal uMsg As Int32, _ ByVal wParam As IntPtr, _ ByVal lParam As String) As Integer Public Declare Ansi Function SendMessage Lib "user32.dll" Alias "SendMessageA" _ (ByVal hwnd As IntPtr, _ ByVal wMsg As Int32, _ ByVal wParam As Int32, _ ByVal lParam As String) As Integer ''set focus - <DllImport("user32.dll", CharSet:=CharSet.Auto, SetLastError:=True)> _ Public Shared Function SendNotifyMessage(ByVal hWnd As IntPtr, ByVal Msg As UInteger, ByVal wParam As IntPtr, ByVal lParam As IntPtr) As IntPtr End Function ... ''this is how I select the combobox iCountryCbo = SendMessage(Parent_hWnd, CB_FINDSTRING, -1, "United States") ''try to set focus SendNotifyMessage(ipCountry, WM_SETFOCUS, IntPtr.Zero, IntPtr.Zero) SendMessageByString(ipCountry, CB_SETCURSEL, iCountryCbo, 0) SendNotifyMessage(ipZip, WM_SETFOCUS, IntPtr.Zero, IntPtr.Zero) I tried moving the setfocus calls around with no luck- Tag: Office 2007 Tag: 232056

    - using Microsoft Print Migrator 3.1 Ran a backup on a win 2003 server where all the print queues are located. On a test server win 2003 ran a restore, the restore completed without error. But I don't see any print queues or printers setup on the test server. I thought the tool was supposed to be used for printer migrations. Please do link to the white paper, I all ready have it. Just need info on what step I'm missing. Thanks. Tag: Office 2007 Tag: 232055
