    - Dual Mode Sockets on XP and Vista - need help from MS ! I am using Dual Mode Sockets on Vista - runs fine so far... I have used the information provided in this article => http://blogs.msdn.com/wndp/archive/2006/10/24/creating-ip-agnostic-applications-part-2-dual-mode-sockets.aspx So I have the following code in my App. System.Net.IPEndPoint localEndPoint = new System.Net.IPEndPoint(System.Net.IPAddress.IPv6Any, 5120); System.Net.Sockets.Socket listener = new System.Net.Sockets.Socket(System.Net.Sockets.AddressFamily.InterNetworkV6, System.Net.Sockets.SocketType.Stream, System.Net.Sockets.ProtocolType.Tcp); listener.SetSocketOption(System.Net.Sockets.SocketOptionLevel.IPv6, (System.Net.Sockets.SocketOptionName)27, 0); Never figured out what '27' as SocketOptions mean - just used the Code in the article of the link above... Works great on Vista (tested on x86 Business), but when I run the App. under WinXP (SP2), I get an error with this SocketOption !! I have installed IPv6 support (installed the Protocol via ControlPanel->Networking, selected my NIC and Properties, clicked 'install' and added the IPv6 protocol), but I don't know if there is something more to do (configure?) - I cannot click on Properties when the IPv6 Protocol is selected in the NIC's properties dialog! Questions: why doesn't this code work under XP? do I have to configure (bind?) the IPv6 protocol to IPv4 (I think this is automatically done on Vista?!) and how?

    - IEnumerator specification inconsistency? In MSDN (August 2006) in the specification of IEnumerator.Current there is word on exceptions. InvalidOperationException shall be thrown in case "The collection was modified after the enumerator was created.". But in the remarks section it can be read that "If the collection is modified between MoveNext and Current, Current returns the element that it is set to, even if the enumerator is already invalidated." For me both this sentances seem to be contradictory. Or am I mistaken? Also another intersting thing. IEnumerator<T> does not specify exceptions at all. In remarks section it says only when Current is undefined. Framework doesn't seem to do checks at all. Adam Badura Tag: BUG:Incorrect behavior of Boxed Value Types in MSDN Docs... Tag: 132960

    - Help with Ping Function, .net framework 1.14322, VB 2005 I need to know how to map a network drive using Visual Basic 2005, when the users pc doesn't have .Net Framework 2.0. My workplace only gives us user profiles so I can't install framework 2.0. They do allow us to run vbscript and .exe fles. however some app's can't be installed such as framework 2.0. Please let me know what other avenues I have. I created this program in Visual Basic 2005, and I now notice that I have this problem, do I have to start again in Visual Basic 2003, or can I set vb2005 to create a program based on the .net 1.14322 framework?

    - Question on ICollection.SyncRoot implementation Using "Lutz Roeder's .NET Reflector" on .NET Framwork shows that collections implement SyncRoot like this: object ICollection.SyncRoot { get { if (this._syncRoot == null) { Interlocked.CompareExchange(ref this._syncRoot, new object(), null); } return this._syncRoot; } } Now I have to questions on this. 1) (major) Why is it made so? Why not initialize _syncRoot in the constructor, or even better in declaration like: private object readonly _syncRoot = new object(); (Note that this also allows the use of readonly.) The construction by definition is executed only by on thread so no problem. And after the object is constructed the _syncRoot already exists so you do not have to check for its existance and do interlocked compare-exchange. Was optimalization the reason (no object created when no "call" to SyncRoot)? But on the other hand if you use SyncRoot you must pay for the null check and interlocked operation. And if one uses a collection of objects the one more empty object doesn't seem to do much difference. Or am I wrong here? 2) (minor) Why is this explicite implementation? (The code is extracted from System.Collections.Generic.LinkedList<T> but it seems to be exactly the same in every collection.) Thanks in advance!

    - Getting current method info for logging Is there any way to get the name of the method that called the current method? Also, is there any way to get the values of the parameters passed into the method, along with the parameter names? I want to write a method that I can call at the start of each method for logging purposes. It'll check if the logging level is high enough, and if so, record the method name and each parameter name and value. I realise I can use reflection to get the name of the current method and the names of the parameters. How can I get the name of the method that called the current method? Or is the only way to do this to pass System.Reflection.MethodBase.GetCurrentMethod() as a parameter? And how can I get the values of the parameters? I was hoping there'd be a Key-Value collection containing them but can't find anything. Failing that, is there a way to say 'give me the value of the parameter named in this string'?

    - DataTable.Compute() question hello, i have a big datable of a bunch of stuff. i am interested in getting row counts that match certain criteria. currently i do this by creating a new DataView for each criteria, and getting its .RowCount. like so: dv = New DataView(dt, "Type = 2", "Type", DataViewRowState.CurrentRows) total = dv.Count writer.WriteLine(String.Format("Lines of Type 2: {0}.", total)) ...that works, but i was wondering -- is there a way to use the DataTable.Compute() method to do this? i had tried something like this, but it didnt work: Dim oTotal As Object = dt.Compute("Count(*)", "Type = 2") ...this doesnt work because the aggregate function Count() isnt designed to work this way. but is there something that is? thanks! matt Tag: BUG:Incorrect behavior of Boxed Value Types in MSDN Docs...

    - Overriding Equals Hello all, I am faced with a dilemma with a class I am working on. I am overriding the Equals() method to be able to make comparisons with objects of the same type, but this class has a member field that contains a collection. My problem is, the two objects I am comparing are exactly the same but the collections in each object are different. Is it a good idea to check equality of member fields that are collections? For example: class MyClass has two member fields: Name and Jobs. Jobs is a JobCollection of Job objects. Both MyClass and JobCollection override Equals(). I have a instance B of MyClass that contains 4 Jobs and in an Array of MyClass objects, I have element C that contains the same name as B but only consists of 3 Jobs. The Jobs are unsynchronized because when B changed from 3 to 4, there was no way to notify the Array of MyClass objects that B and C are the same and the new Job added to B had to be added to C as well. Thanks for your input! I know that for instance a collection such as StringCollection doesn't override the Equals() method. Mario Tag: BUG:Incorrect behavior of Boxed Value Types in MSDN Docs...

    - XML and strongly typed datasets I'm trying to apply techniques I'd normally use to pull data from SQL/Server to pull XML from SQL/Server, and I'm running into a problem. Here's what I'm doing: 1. I've built a stored procedure that pulls my data, and renders it into proper XML. I'm using 'FOR XML AUTO, ELEMENTS', but I'll bet the issues would occur with EXPLICIT also. 2. Using VS2005, I've added a DataSet item, and have dragged the sProc into the dataset so I can access it through a TableAdapter. 3. When I fill the DataTable via the TableAdapter, I get a single column limited to 2033 characters, so I'm not getting the entire XML tree. Google has a number of posts regarding using OLEDB / Streaming to get the data from the 2033 character fields, but none of the posts address the use of strongly typed datasets and TableAdapters, which are what I'm using. Can this be done? If so, how? Thanks I'm trying to apply techniques I'd normally use to pull data from SQL/Server to pull XML from SQL/Server, and I'm running into a problem.

    - Desktop shortcut when deploying I added a deployment project to my solution and when through the process of setting it all up. When I run my installer it does everything correctly apart from the fact that the shortcut on the desktop and the program files menu points not to the exe file but to the folder the exe file is in. When I go into my deployment project and try to change the target property of the shortcut it only lets me choose "Application Folder". I can not choose the exe. What am I doing wrong ?

    - Bug in My.Computer.FileSystem.WriteAllText I've found that My.Computer.FileSystem.WriteAllText in .Net 2.0 writes three additional, non-text bytes in front of the string it's supposed to be writing. These bytes are not in the normal text range of values, and don't show up if you load the file into Notepad or other text viewers, but can be easily seen with Visual Studio 2005's Binary editor. Additionally, if you use this method to write out an HTML file to be embedded in other HTML (like an Outlook signature), these bytes get rendered. Finding this bug was a pain, to say the least. I have an example VS2005 solution folder which shows the bug, and would be happy to send it to someone at MS if anyone is interested, but you can verify in about 2 minutes with a simple "Hello World!" output to a new text file using the above method.

Problem is that if I want to change application settings in the .config file, say for instance a polling frequency, I have to restart the service to read the new settings. All the methods to refresh/reread settings seem to work only for user settings, not application settings.

    - Why so many copies of .NET DLL? Why does .NET make so many copies of my DLLs? I inherited a large project and there are two pervasive DLLs that get used everywhere: PlcmObject.dll and PlcmUtil.dll Why our build procedure copies them all over our build directory is a mystery to me. I did a dir /s c:\ and found 170 copies (I assume that is 85 copies each) of these two DLLs. Can anyone guess why our build procedure would make so many copies? I thought the whole point of using a DLL instead of an OLB (can you create OLBs for .NET project?) or including the source code again was to save disk space. Now I assume our build procedure would not make copies of these DLLs in the two Microsoft directories below. Why does Microsoft (Visual Studio perhaps?) make so many copies? I guess NUnit is making copies too. 6 copies in the Application Data directory, for example: c:/Documents and Settings/sheintze/Local Settings/Application Data/assembly/dl2/GGH8B4CG.6O1/3C1CCLC7.KVR/d27da362/4238e818_09dac701/PlcmUtility.dll 9 copies in the nunit directory, for example: c:/Documents and Settings/sheintze/Local Settings/Temp/nunit20/ShadowCopyCache/633227782609218750/Tests/assembly/dl2/9f92218c/207c98d8_53dfc701/PlcmUtility.DLL This is making life hell because periodically we have to find and delete these 170 copies to make the build work!

    - Problem post KB937143 install Windows Server with .Net dll exposed via COM Dear Group, We've recently applied KB937143 to a server and a bespoke dll we have (for encryption) has suddenly stopped working. This is a VS 2005 (framework 2) dll that simply wraps some of the MD5 functions within the .Net Framework. The dll has been exposed to COM via the usual means. This has all been working without issue in a production environment for well over 12 months with the dll being shared between a .Net application and a server side classic ASP site. The problem appears to be that KB937143 has done something to the way dll's are exposed. The dll is shown to be still registered but all the methods for it have just disappeared! Have tried un-registering the dll and re-registering to no avail. Un-install KB937143 and the COM methods will reappear! Note that this issue only happens on servers that have IE 7 installed - IE 6 based machines appear to be unaffected. Any helps thoughts, or comments very much appreciated.

    - Implementing a Thread.JoinAll(timeout) using managed threading I recently found myself in a situation wanting to Thread.JoinAll(timeout) (i.e. blocking the calling thread until all a list of threads have finished or the timeout has expired). I wanted to do this using only managed threading[1], which means Monitors instead of WaitHandles. I also didn't want to assume the threads were worker threads in the thread pool. The solution I came up with resembles the one described in Joseph Albahari's "Threading in C#" E-book[2]. The problem is, I (and it) relied on a. locking, Wait()ing and Pulse()ing to control flow b. decreasing an "number of active threads" counter c. keeping track of how much of the desired timeout has passed d. assuming everything is done when the counter reaches 0 Even though it seems to work, it seems rather kludgy for something that is more or less 1 line of code if you use the thread pool and WaitAll(). Can any of you think of a neater solution? 1: From the .NET Framework developer's guide: "Monitor objects are purely managed, fully portable, and might be more efficient in terms of operating-system resource requirements. WaitHandle objects represent operating-system waitable objects, are useful for synchronizing between managed and unmanaged code, and expose some advanced operating-system features like the ability to wait on many objects at once." 2: http://www.albahari.com/threading/part3.html (with working example implementation) Tag: BUG:Incorrect behavior of Boxed Value Types in MSDN Docs...

    - Xml serialization, arrays, XmlAnyAttribute Hi... I was trying to deserialize objects from xml that contain a couple of arrays. In the xml, at least, I was trying to express some default/static members to the array as attributes on the array bracket (e.g. ... <Foobars defaultFoo="bar"> <Foobar>Foo</Foobar> <Foobar></Foobar> </Foobars> ... and in the class to be deserialized I have public Foobar[] Foobars {} ) I was experimenting with [XmlAnyAttribute], [XmlAttribute], etc and I found that the attribute defaultFoo just vaporizes. It doesn't show up in the any-attribute array for the container class nor does it show up in the unknown attributes array for the Foobar instances. Ideally, what I'd like to have happen is to direct defaultFoo directed into public class Foobar { public static string defaultFoo; } but at the moment I'm not having luck getting it to show up anywhere. Any pointers? Thanks Mark Tag: BUG:Incorrect behavior of Boxed Value Types in MSDN Docs... Tag: 132888

    - dunncottage@aol.com Hi Donna, I just spoke with Line Comeau at the town offices about the gazebo raising this Saturday. I saw the posting about it asking for volunteers. I will be stopping by to take pictures but saw in the notice that one of the volunteer items is photography. I don't know if they are looking for some sort of official recording of the building activities, and I'm sure others will have cameras, but if you need an "official" volunteer to do photography I'd be happy to do that. Anyhow, Line suggested I email you so please let me know what you think. I can be reached at 531-2393 any time, or via email. Thanks. -- -glenn- Tag: BUG:Incorrect behavior of Boxed Value Types in MSDN Docs... Tag: 132868

    - FileSystemWatcher-Loosing events? I am using fileSystemWatcher to monitor a directory on a file server. I am looking for zip files. When a zip file arrives the watcher event is trigged an I can unzip the file and then delete it. A very simple application but...I have a problem. When I copy say 10 zip files at once into the watched directory a problem occure. What I can se som create events are missed? Is there a max buffer limit. No error is created by fileSystemWatcher. I used this watcher instead of a timer to win some unwanted processing time (polling). Is there a solution for this I want to know it :) //Jonte Tag: BUG:Incorrect behavior of Boxed Value Types in MSDN Docs... Tag: 132862

    - function scope I have a c# application with windows form for updating and retrieving some database table records. lets call it form1. I also have another application in vb that extracts data from the web but used the same database table as input to direct its operation. the data in the table is not useable directly but need a bit of transformation as done in the form1. how can I make retrieval functions in forml to the vb application? use the same package name but in different project? I want the vb app to control the form in terms of selecting the record but only if the form1 is instantiated by the vb application. if I just use the instantiation of application method, I don't know how to make available the required functions and the called internal function without the public thank you for your time and expertise.

    - System.Net.Sockets problem I am using System.Net.Sockets to connect a client socket to a server that requires three inputs when I connect: host, port and an identification number that identifies the person connecting. None of the overloads for either the Connect or BeginConnect methods takes that many inputs (basically they take host and port only). Would it be best to create a new class that derives from the base class System.Net.Sockets and implement a new method? And if so, any tips on what my new method should look like? Thanks very much for any ideas. Tag: BUG:Incorrect behavior of Boxed Value Types in MSDN Docs... Tag: 132850

    - FTP vb.net firewall hi guys, i have recently implemented an ftp class in vb.net for work with one of my clients. unfortunately when i put my software live i found that the client requires the a firewall parameter to be passed into the ftp class to make it work correctly. I have been able to link to the ftp directory using ws_ftp pro - i want to replicate this functionality in my code in vb.net 2.0. unfortunately i dont have a clue how to go about this. in ws_ftp i setup a firewall with a hostname and select '(internal) USER with no logon'. then i basically just apply this setting to my site which has the usual (host/username/pwd). can anyone tell me what is happening here or point me to a resource which will help me. unfortunately i need resolution quite soon. if anyone could point me at a vb.net class library with the correct functionality & examples then this would also help Thanks CG Tag: BUG:Incorrect behavior of Boxed Value Types in MSDN Docs...

    - Generics and their resulting class. Possible to obtain? Hi, We need to serialize (binary) objects containing generic collections. The thing is, when we try to get the objects back (deserialize) with a different instance of the application, we receive an exception stating the constructor of the generic class does not exist. So Is there a way to obtain the resulting classes of the generics we use so we can add them as "normal" code in our app? We can develop our own starting from non-generic collections, but then we would have to develop our own methods and maintain them. The generics are already debuged and maintained by MS so we would like to generate them with the same generator the framework generates them if possible. So if I summarize what we want : We want to take the resulting class from a given generic and "copy-paste" the code and create a "user class" that we will add to our project. Is it possible?

    - create an XPS document I would like to export my document has an XPS document. I already have some printing code. The problem which I am facing is making the whole process without dialog. Through the print menu the user get a dialog where he can choose his printer of choice among available printer, which can be the XPS output if it's available. Then there is a second dialog letting him specify the output file. I would like to be able to do everything programatically so that I test if the XPS printer is there and set the output file. How do I do that? I was thinking to set PrinterName to "Microsoft XPS Document Writer" but it's obviously an internationalized english sentence and that won't work in non english country... Any tips?

    - Determining if a type implements a particular interface Hello all, When using reflection, how can I find out if a particular type implements a specific interface. For instance, I have the following code: Type t = myAsm.GetType( "AssemblyToLoad.MyClass" ); Type iMyClassType = typeof(AssemblyToLoad.IMyClass); foreach( Type i in t.GetInterfaces() ) { Console.WriteLine( "Interface: {0}; Implemented: {1}, {2}", i, iMyClassType, i.Equals( iMyClassType ) ); } The type "AssemblyToLoad.MyClass" implements an interface called "AssemblyToLoad.IMyClass", but the test "i.Equals( iMyClassType )" always returns false. The code above is in a different assembly from the "AssemblyToLoad" namespace. Thanks for your help and tips... Mario Tag: BUG:Incorrect behavior of Boxed Value Types in MSDN Docs... Tag: 132799

    - read parameters through StackFrame I'm trying to figure out a way to read parameter values from a prior function call in the StackFrame. I know reflection won't let me do this, it wasn't designed to do anything but report on static data, but is there another way? What I'm looking for is to do soemthing similar to the following... Public Class MyClass Inherits MyClassBase Function GetFoo(arg1 as string, arg2 as string) as Foo Return MyBase.FindFoo() End Function End Class Public Class MyClassBase Function FindFoo() As Foo (this function would need to read the calling function parameter values to determine what it returns) (this function would be called by many functions in the inherited class, which is why I'm not passing the parameters directly) End Function End Function I'm thinking I could pass in a ParamArray, but I'd like to avoid doing that if possible. I'd like to avoid requiring any effort on the part of a developer writing new methods in the MyClass class (e.g. "always include these lines of code in your function...").

Hi,

In search of the differences between struct and class I found this MSDN Doc
on Boxed Value Types:

http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/f08s4k28(VS.90).aspx

The output is specified as this if you run this code
----------
////// doing this with a value type
4
2147483647
2147483647
////// doing this with a normal type
1
1
0
-------

I wonder I'm getting this output when I runf this code as it is.
---------------
////// doing this with a value type
4
4
2147483647
////// doing this with a normal type
1
1
0
--------------

Is this a bug or the ValueType semantics what specified in this doc is
proved wrong.

What should I assume?

Regards,
Ashok

The behavior of parameters passed by reference in reflection calls
changed between .NET 1.1 and .NET 2.0, I believe. It looks like this is
referencing the old behavior.

It would be worth reporting this on connect.microsoft.com.
