    - 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: Query Local Event Log (with WMI)? Tag: 229881

    - Using ASP.NET AJAX together with YUI? Has anybody used AJAX together with YUI (Yahoo User Interface) Framework? I'm thinking of dumping ASP.NET 2.0 controls because they are so poorly developed and building the next project with YUI which is very impressive. I'm not ready to write off AJAX because I don't know much about its quality yet. Any comments in this context? Tag: Query Local Event Log (with WMI)? Tag: 229879

    - 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: Query Local Event Log (with WMI)?

    - 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: Query Local Event Log (with WMI)?

    - 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?

    - 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: Query Local Event Log (with WMI)?

    - 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?

    - 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.

    - Hiding images in a web app Hi I have an img control I am trying to hide upon certain types of commands in my code behind. When to hide it is directly tied to a asp:dropdownlist control. So depending on what the user selects in that dropdownlist, this image will be hidden or be displayed. I have tied the onselectedindexchanged value of the dropdownlist to a c-sharp method (not javascript) because other things are being done as well that I want to do server side. However, the img control is not server side, I can't grab it on the c-sharp method. So I tried to right something like this to do that string myScript = "<script type='text/javascript'> if (imgTo != null) { imgTo.width = 0; }</script>"; ClientScript.RegisterClientScriptBlock(this.GetType(), "ABC", myScript); However, it keeps saying imgTo is undefined. Even if I modify my script above to read if (imgTo != 'undefined') it still gives me the same error. But it's not undefined, below is my HTML for it. <img alt="To Calendar" id="imgTo" src="../Images/calendar.gif" style="width:0" onclick="CallCalendar('ctl00$MasterContentPlaceHolder $txtTo')"/> Is there something else I could be missing? I have tried to use a server side image control instead of the client side one, but once I do that, for some reason, it keeps losing the data in my CallCalendar method (see above) that is called in the onclick method for imgTo because it is posting back. That CallCalendar method popups up a calendar and assigns the value selected to a text box on the form. I have tried to put a break point in my page load method to see why I lose the value in the text box, but by the time it gets to page load the value in the text box is already gone (although I can see it show up on the screen). So I'm thinking the client side image is my best way, if I can just figure out how to get it to realize imgTo is really thee. Tag: Query Local Event Log (with WMI)? Tag: 229818

This attribute when applied to a target (class or method etc.) gives a compiler warning/error. I know we can write our own attributes by inheriting the System.Attribute but I want to make it give compiler warning or error when it is applied on the defined attribute target. How can we write such an attributes? Regards, Ashok G Tag: Query Local Event Log (with WMI)? Tag: 229809

    - Handling Application.Start via Custom HTTP Module Using ASP.NET 3.5: Can a custom HTTP Module be used to register for the Application_Start event? Or _must_ I use Global.asax to work with Application.Start? I understand that I can use a custom HTTP Module to register for other pipeline events (like Application.BeginRequest), but I was told that the only place that I can set up an event handler for Application.Start is in Global.asax. My preference would be to register an HTTP Module in Web.config that, upon its initialization, has logic that determines if Application.Start needs to be handled, and if so, which class and method (that I load dynamically into the application's default AppDomain) is to handle Application.Start. So, ideally, things would go like this (please tell me if you see any problems with doing things this way): 1. When the application is first started, a custom HTTP module is loaded (per Web.config). 2. That custom HTTP module has logic that determines if Application.Start is to be handled. 3. If runtime conditions dictate that Application.Start is to be handled, then the HTTP module proceeds to load the correct assembly, instantiate the correct class, and register the correct Application.Start event handling method with the Application.Start event. 4. The Application.Start event is then raised, thereby invoking the event handling method wired up in step 3 above. For the above to work, I would have to rely on somethig that I don't quite understand... and that is the sequence of activities that take place when an ASP.NET application is started: in particular, I would need to be able to count on my custom HTTP module being loaded *before* Application.Start is raised. Can I count on that sequence? Your feedback and comments are appreciated! Tag: Query Local Event Log (with WMI)? Tag: 229783

    - Changing the time zone changes the appointment time in calendar Hi, I have W Mobile 2003 SE v 4.21 on my O2 xda IIs PDA. Then I travel to a new time zone I would like to change the time on my PDA but each time it asks if you want to change the appoinment times wants to change the appoinment times too. If you say NO then nothing happens - the time zone does not change - it just cancels the action. If you say YES then every appointment in your diary gets moved back or forward by the time zone difference. This is very frustrating because when you make an appoinment with someone in a different state you set it ti their local time. All you need is for the clock and region/time zone to change not every appoinment. Is there a way to stop this happening? The easy answer is to change the clock time but this does not work if you sync to your laptop as it will change the clock back again during the sync. The time is relative to the time zone selected on the device. Cheers Richard Tag: Query Local Event Log (with WMI)? Tag: 229779

    - C# Application Dies for Only 1 User I have rather odd problem and I am not sure how to go about debugging it. I have an MDI application that I am deploying on the local intranet to about 20 users using ClickOnce deployment. I am just using the default setting in Visual Studio 2005 to deploy the app to an intranet web server. It is a full trust application. After I published the last update one of the users called and said the application would not start for him after the update installed, but was working the day before. No other users are having problems. Basically the problem is: The user starts the application it starts up fine. Then the user clicks on another application that is open causing my app to loose focus. When the user clicks back on my application it shuts down within one second. If the user starts my application and uses Alt+Tab to switch between the applications that are running on the machine the error does not occur. In fact if the user chooses to use Alt+Tab just once to switch between my app and another app the problem goes away even if they start using their mouse to start clicking between my app and another one.

    - Need direct navigation to a row in a BindingSource Hi there: I need to get the position of a given DataRow to navigate directly to it with a BindingSourceNavigator. I have a BindingNavigator and several textboxes showing each field of a given table. I dragged the fields from the Data Sources window to the form in the designer. As far as I know, the BindingSource lets you move first, next, to a position..., so, what if I need to navigate directly to a row that has a specific value in a field (for instance, "Carl" in the field "Name" in the DataTable "People"). I suppose I should get the row position within the DataTable, in order to set the BindingSource.Position and have the textboxes show each piece of information. Moreover, what if the DataSource is a DataView with filters set, how do I get the position of that given row within this DataView? Please, need help...

Different parts of a locally-installed application write to the same
custom event log. I would like to query the log and write the data to
an XML string. Can anyone show how that could be done?

Thanks.

Hello,

from .NET you can use the EventLog class. It has an Entries property giving
you access to the entries.

Kind regards,
Henning Krause
