    - Server.Transfer Issue. I am using ADO.Net to save data in SQL Server using Transaction Object. Method works perfectly fine when I tested that ( begin Transaction and Commit Transaction, all are working great). But As I added Server.Transfer (somefile.aspx) at the end of the method, every thing vanished from database. ( as I need to transfer it to some other page on the basis of result) I have also tried Response.Clear() before Server.Transfer( some file ) and I have also used Response.Buffer = True at page_load method. Anyone, Please help... -- Ather Ali Shaikh Software Engineer eIntelligence (Pvt.) Limited. Ph.

    - Inconsistent behavior in Uri class (Equals vs. ==) We have found that the Equals method of the Uri class works as expected but that the "==" operator does not. For example, here's a little console application: using System; namespace UriEqualsBug { class Class1 { [STAThread] static void Main(string[] args) { Uri u1 = new Uri ("http://tom/foo.xml"); Uri u2 = new Uri ("http://tom/foo.xml"); Console.WriteLine("The two instances are equal using the equals method {0}", u1.Equals(u2)); Console.WriteLine("The two instances are equal using the == operator {0}", u1 == u2); } } } One would expect the output to be true for both comparisons. However, we get true from the u1.Equals(u2) and false from u1 == u2. Any ideas? Is this a framework bug? We are using the .NET framework 1.1.4322. Tag: VB 6 Deployment Batch File in VS.NET Tag: 60415

    - ASP.NET Trace from service running in web app In the Application_OnStart event in global.asax, my code calls an AlertService which creates a System.Timers.Timer() object. So this service doesn't actually run in conjunction with a specific aspx page, apparently. When the timer's Elapsed event handler fires, it calls some other classes I have written. These classes output some Trace statements that you can view if an aspx page calls them, but I can't seem to figure out where the Trace statements go when my service calls the classes. Is there any way I can find the trace for this service? -- [[((hillarie))]] To reply, remove ".SPAMBLOCK" from email address Tag: VB 6 Deployment Batch File in VS.NET Tag: 60410

    - ASP.NET: Page_Load fires twice I have a user control and its Page_Load event is firing twice. I have consulted articles such as this one: http://www.extremeexperts.com/Net/FAQ/PageLoadFiringTwice.aspx This article essentially says that if I set AutoEventWireUp to false, then the Page_Load will only fire once. However, that is not the right solution for me. Here is my code: in the .ascx.cs file: protected override void Page_Load(object sender, System.EventArgs e) { Trace.Write("GenInf01", "Page_Load() begin"); } private void InitializeComponent() { this.Load += new System.EventHandler(this.Page_Load); } in the .ascx file: Control Language="c#" AutoEventWireup="false" Codebehind="GenInf01.ascx.cs" Inherits="MERC.AircatWeb.Applications.TAR._107RequestForm.GenInf01" TargetSchema=http://schemas.microsoft.com/intellisense/ie5 Does anyone know what else to be looking for? -- [[((hillarie))]] To reply, remove ".SPAMBLOCK" from email address Tag: VB 6 Deployment Batch File in VS.NET Tag: 60407

    - C# late binding for accessing WORD object model I am attempting to use late binding to interface with word (versions 97, 2000 and 2002). I have a few questions: 1. How do I detect if there is an instance of word that I can attach to rather than starting a new instance. 2. How can I determine which version of Word is running. (I assume I need this as there may be instances where the arguments to methods change from version to version). 3. Does the MailMerge facility exist in Office 97. 4. Does anyone know of any C# samples that run on Word 97, 2000 and 2002. 5. Where can I get acces to the word object model for all of these versions of word. 6. Below is sample code that creates an instance of word and then opens a document. To access the Open method on the Documents, I have to somehow get a Type from an object. I achieve this by calling Type.GetHandle and then call Type.GetTypeFromHandle. My instinct was a GetTypeFromObject method but none exists. Is this the best way to do this as it seems very messy? Type t = Type.GetTypeFromProgID("Word.Application"); object w = Activator.CreateInstance(t); object docs = t.InvokeMember("Documents", BindingFlags.GetProperty, null, w, null); // Get a type from an object??????? RuntimeTypeHandle handle = Type.GetTypeHandle(docs); Type tDocs = Type.GetTypeFromHandle(handle); object doc = tDocs.InvokeMember("Open", BindingFlags.InvokeMethod, null, docs, new Object[] {@"C:\logfile.txt"}); Tag: VB 6 Deployment Batch File in VS.NET Tag: 60391

    - help deleting a member of an enumeration from within a loop Hi, I'm very new to .NET and am programming in C#. I have a web application where i have two list boxes. Its kind of like a shopping card where you can add items from one 'locations' list box to the 'locations selected' (cart) listbox. I have a hirarchy of locations - main locations and sub locations. main locations being the parent locations, and the sub locations being the child locations. I want to be able to check to see if the already selected locations listbox (cart) already contains a child location of a parent location that is trying to be added to the collection (because there is no need to add the child there if the parent is selected). if so the child should be deleted and the parent added I am looping through the locations selected, and for each one looping through the already selected (cart) locations collection and checking the existance of the members. here is the code: private void Button1_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e) { if(lstLocations.SelectedIndex != -1) { foreach(ListItem selectedLocation in lstLocations.Items) { if(selectedLocation.Selected) { bool itemAlreadyExists = false; bool parentItemExists = false; bool childItemExists = false; foreach(ListItem locationsSelected in lstCart.Items) { //does new location already exist in locations collection? if(selectedLocation.Text.Equals(locationsSelected.Text.ToString())) { itemAlreadyExists = true; lblNotice.Text += "At least one of the selected items already exists and has been ignored<br>"; } if(!itemAlreadyExists) { //does parent of child already exist in collection if(selectedLocation.Value.StartsWith(locationsSelected.Value.ToString()+"-") ) { parentItemExists = true; lblNotice.Text += "You attempted to add a child location of a parent already selected. There is no need to add a child location when the parent is already in your collection. Item ignored<br>"; } //does child of parent already exist in collection, if so get rid of it //this is the bit that is giving the error! if(locationsSelected.Value.StartsWith(selectedLocation.Value.ToString()+"-") ) { childItemExists = true; lstCart.Items.Remove(locationsSelected); //this is where the error occurs lstCart.Items.Add(selectedLocation); lblNotice.Text += "A child location was removed because you added its parent!<br>"; } } } if(!itemAlreadyExists && !parentItemExists && !childItemExists) { lstCart.Items.Add(selectedLocation); } } } } } when i execute the page and try add a parent location when a child already exists the page throws the following error: Collection was modified; enumeration operation may not execute. I know this is pretty much saying that as the loop progresses, the code tries to delete a member of the collection and hence modify the loop. Can you see what i am trying to achieve and please advise me of the best way around this problem? Thanks alot for your help Tim.. Tag: VB 6 Deployment Batch File in VS.NET Tag: 60389

    - Reflection, custom attributes what may be the reason for the following behaviour: //I load an assembly from dll. Assembly asembly = Assembly.LoadFrom(dllFullPath); //then I get all Types from the assembly types = asembly.GetTypes(); flags = (BindingFlags.Public|BindingFlags.Static| BindingFlags.Instance|BindingFlags.DeclaredOnly); //and next, I try to load some method infos from type. foreach (type in types) { MethodInfo[] mInfos = type.GetMethods(flags); //and at the very end I try to get some custom attribues //defined for the method. attributes = mi.GetCustomAttributes(typeof ( Common.DescriptionAttribute),false); if(attributes.Length >0) { //do somethong with the attributes... } } The most strange thing for me is the fact, that when dllFullPath points to some deeply nested directory (with the project), the custom attributes are not found. But when I copy the _very same_ DLL to root directory of drive, all attributes are found. (?) What may be the reason for such behaviour ?

    - Plug-ins in the separate domain Hello, All! I try to realize the plug-ins loaded in the separate domain (approximately as here it is written http://msdn.microsoft.com/msdnmag/issues/03/10/plug-ins/default.aspx). A difference only that manager plug-ins is started not from the program, but from COM, written on vb.net which, in turn, is caused by a plug-in for the Host. In general, all wonderfully works, except for trifles: 1. Assembly of the manager of plug-ins and the classes necessary for work of plug-ins, it is necessary to prevent in GAC, else loading such as plugDomain.Load(ManagerAssemblyName) is not possible 2. There lives of 5 minutes on which expiration attempt to execute a method of a plug-in causes the message "Object has been disconnected or does not exist at the server". Thus of property (String) of a plug-in to receive it is possible. No my dancings around LifetimeServices and other leases give result :( With best regards, Dyakov K.M..

    - App not working when moved to a new environment Hi, We have an ASP.NET application that works fine on my workstation and our integration server (both of these boxes have Visual Studio installed). When we moved the app to our stagging server (without VS) it stopped working. I get the following errors: Error #1: Description: An error occurred during the compilation of a resource required to service this request. Please review the following specific error details and modify your source code appropriately. Compiler Error Message: BC30451: Name 'm_strOnLoad' is not declared. Error #2 Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code. Exception Details: System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object. Source Error: An unhandled exception was generated during the execution of the current web request. Information regarding the origin and location of the exception can be identified using the exception stack trace below. Stack Trace: [NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.] Customer_Service.searchAccount.Page_Load(Object sender, EventArgs e) System.Web.UI.Control.OnLoad(EventArgs e) +67 System.Web.UI.Control.LoadRecursive() +35 System.Web.UI.Page.ProcessRequestMain() +731 So it looks to me like the aspx pages cannot find a reference to their codebehind classes which should have been compiled into the project DLL. I have checked the versions of the all DLLs and aspx files in the bin directory and they are the same as the ones on the integration box. A little bit about the process we are using: First I develop and compile the project on my local box and then check the source files (.aspx.vb, .vb, etc) and aspx files into VSS. Then I go onto the integration server and checkout the pertinent versions of the source files and aspx files based on the code changes we want to implement. Still on the integration server, I recomiple the project DLL with the new files that I just got from VSS, and everything is working fine on that box. Now, for the move to the stagging server I simply copied all the aspx files, and I have the project DLL in the bin directory of the web application. Is this all I need to do? It seems that I'm missing something. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Tag: VB 6 Deployment Batch File in VS.NET Tag: 60318

    - EventLog & EventLogEntries I've been using System.Diagnostic.EventLog & EventLogEntries for over a year and I still do not understand some aspects of how they are supposed to work. Here is one particular issue I have never made sense of: The EventLogEntries is the framework's only mechanism to fetch event logs. This can be done by fetching by index within this special collection class. This all seems simple and straightforward with one exception: the bounds and contents of this collection appear to change dynamically during the lifetime of this object. For example, I can fetch the Security log for a remote target and see in the EventLogEntries object that this log has 1000 entries that begin with record # 653617 and end with record # 653716. But while iterating the collection, I can find that suddenly the object has 980 entries and all entries have moved underneath me (e.g. record # 653716 was at index 999 and is now at index 979). I realize the underlying cause is that the event logs on the remote target are being pruned based on their configuration (e.g. based on the maximum log size). However, it is undecipherable to me how anyone could be expected to work a collection of entries whose contract with the caller appears to be that its size and contents can change at any time, for any reason and without any event notification. If someone can help me make sense of this, it would be appreciated. Tag: VB 6 Deployment Batch File in VS.NET Tag: 60317

    - .NET GC Woes & Best Practices To my fellow .NET developers, When .NET came out and I attended one of its launch seminars I was ecstatic about it's potential. I convinced my employer that his next enterprise-level application should be developed using the latest-and-greatest technology--.NET! Now that my application has reach fruition and we're in the deployment stage MAJOR issues are becoming apparent esp. dealing with memory leaks. I was under the impression that the Garbage Collector was a godsend--a magical force who would deal with all my memory management concerns so that I could be freed to work on the more important issues dealing with business logic. That assumption was far from true. Now before I elaborate, let me say this... I realize that every major undertaking in the programming world is bound to have its bugs. I myself have never produced anything beyond the simplest of applications that were without bugs. Therefore, I expect no perfection from the .NET designers and I still believe largely in .NET's potential and direction. It's just that I have been riddled with memory leaks that I never had in the VB6 world. Now that I have witnessed the power of GC, I'd rather regress to managing my own clean up. MY ISSUES WITH GARBAGE COLLECTION: 1. Whether or not Microsoft wants to admit it, the world of programming is so massive that most programmers cannot be expected to grasp all the high-level ins and outs necessary for developing superior apps. I though GC was designed with this in mind; however, as I read all the posts regarding it I can see that there is an overwhelming number of confused developers who are unsure about it. Back when I set my objects to Nothing once I finished using them, things were easy. 2. Hanging references are rampant. Say you create an object that contains other objects. When that object falls out of scope but has inner-objects that go on living, although you would expect it to die, it lives. One very common example of this arises when you create a form and assign event handlers to the various events, but do not remove those handlers when the form is closed. The dead form reference exists in limbo never to be reclaimed. From a simplistic standpoint, should GC be intelligent enough to dispose of all inner objects when the parent object reference falls out of scope? I mean, if it's obvious that I can never make reference to the closed form again and all the inner objects are ONLY referenced by the form itself--i.e. they are complete self-contained--why bother retaining it in memory!? 3. Because of .NET it is almost a requirement that developers purchase a memory profiling tool. If I hadn't I wouldn't have stood a chance at eliminating my memory leaks. At present, with the tool, I have only just begun plugging all the leaks. 4. As more and more .NET issues emerge for me, it would be nice to have a specific Microsoft URL that has a .NET priority list of issues. Knowing what MS was working on would help put me at ease and make me eagerly anticipate the next release. GARBAGE COLLECTION CONFUSIONS: Although GC was intended to make my life easier, I have had to do volumes of research that lead to tons of questions and some answers. Eventually, I decided that learning from the posters on these newsgroups had limited value--everyone kept speaking definitively on the topic only to be contradicted by someone else who was in turn contradicted again. Here are some of the questions I asked... It seems that there are several ways of cleaning up objects--use deconstructors, implement the IDispose interface and call Dispose (or use a using statement), set the object to null, and override the finalizer method. (I am still uncertain as to whether the finalizer and the deconstructor are one in the same.) Q1: What is the train of thought I should use to know how to properly clean up objects? Call Dispose if it exists, nullify it, or both? Q2: Should I bother nullifying an object that is about to fall out of scope or does GC clean up nullified objects and out-of-scope objects the same way? (I'm guessing "yes".) Q3: If I declare a type and instantiate an object against it is it important to nullify it before I reuse it to instantiate another object? private void Show2Dialogs() { MyForm frm = new MyForm(); //instance 1 frm.ShowDialog(); frm = null; frm = new MyForm(); //instance 2 frm.ShowDialog(); } vs. private void Show2Dialogs() { MyForm frm = new MyForm(); //instance 1 frm.ShowDialog(); frm = new MyForm(); //instance 2 -- is instance 1 garbage collected? frm.ShowDialog(); } Q4: How does the scope of the type impact this? What if the type is static or belongs to a static class? MyForm frm = null; private void Show2Dialogs() { frm = new MyForm(); //instance 1 frm.ShowDialog(); frm = null; frm = new MyForm(); //instance 2 frm.ShowDialog(); } vs. MyForm frm = null; private void Show2Dialogs() { frm = new MyForm(); //instance 1 frm.ShowDialog(); frm = new MyForm(); //instance 2 -- is instance 1 garbage collected frm.ShowDialog(); } Q5: What are the GC ramifications using unassigned object references directly? new ToolTip().SetToolTip(MyButton, "Click me to continue..."); (Tool tips are graphical objects. Is there a difference on doing the same with non-graphical objects?) new MyObject().DoSomething(); //obviously a static method might be better Q6: From a design standpoint when should I use Dispose or destructors/finalizers? Here's what I think I've learned... Dispose: Use ONLY when your class deals with unmanaged resources. Destructors: Avoid them as there is no way to be sure when the GC will call them. GC will handle the details for destroying an object's managed resources without your help. Q7: Even when I explicitly Dispose an object is it still a good idea to nullify it? I would guess "yes". The whole idea of checking at the top of every method to see whether the object has been disposed makes for ugly code and seems problematic--what if the programmer forgets to code the check to determine whether the object has been disposed before attempting to execute the method's code? By nullifying the object, this becomes a non-issue. Q8: Has anyone developed some general suggestions (perhaps a best practices checklist) on designing for GC? Q9: Any general suggestions (or a best practices checklist) for avoiding memory leaks? e.g. Always remove all event handlers in your disposed objects. Q10: Regarding removing all event handlers in non-form objects... do it in a Dispose method or in the deconstructor? Pros/cons of each? I read some recommendations that event handlers should be removed when a form is Disposed/Closed, yet in the Windows Form-generated code for such events as button clicks, there is no attempt to unregister the event handler. Why is that? Well, that's more than enough for now. I'm just baffled that this thing called Garbage Collection--which is supposed to ease our burden--has done nothing but increase our workload as developers. I am truly thankful for anyone who takes the time to offer any feedback. I've been troubleshooting my current project's memory issues for months (tons of hours!). I've even brought in an outside contractor to help with the issue. His advice helped and reduced the memory-leaks, but did not solve the issue. Mario T. Lanza Clarity Information Architecture, Inc.

The offered solution was disassembly the interops using the ildasm tool and recompile it using ilasm with new name. What I could not understand is how I change the refernce of the AxSHDocVW.dll to point to the new interop I created. I also tried using the /source option when importing the library and get a .cs file, but I could not find the refernce directive in the code, so I created an empty project, added the source code and referenced to the new assembly I created. Still the refernce remained the same (looked in the manifest button of ildasm). Help.... PPPPPLLLLEEEAAAASSEE..... Regards, Or Lavy Tag: VB 6 Deployment Batch File in VS.NET Tag: 60303

    - String conversion problem (encoders) Hi to all, can anyone tells me what is the correct way from the framework to convert OEM characters to Ansi (and the opposite) ?? I mean, i am building an SMS infrastructure and one part of it is to send sms through the help of Nokia PC Connectivity SDK. The problem is that when the user enter Greek characters in a textbox, they reach as empty chars in the phone, so i have to convert them to Ansi (i guess) before sending them. I tried the code below (taken from online help) but it gives me "??? ?????" in a Greek string. I know i am doing something wrong with the encoders but i still cannot find it. Does anyone can help ?? Thanks a lot! Anthony Boudouvas Tag: VB 6 Deployment Batch File in VS.NET Tag: 60280

    - Queue._size = 0 Hi, I notice in the debugger that the _size member of a Queue is 0 even tho its been initialised, is it always 0 on construction and not the default size? So on the first .Enqueue(object) it will then grow. Weird, why is the _array memeber set to 32 (also the same value as _ShrinkThreshold). So why is _size = 0 and what is _size for then if it isnt the size of the Queue._array ? Thanks. Tag: VB 6 Deployment Batch File in VS.NET Tag: 60264

    - My Webservice works on Win2000 but not on Win2003 Hello I developed a WebService that works on a Win2000 server, but when I copies them to a new Win2003 server and test them with the windows explorer: url --> http:\\localhost\Webserv\Webserv.asmx it says page not found. (If i put a html page in the same directory it works) I think it has to do with the association between .asmx and some dll's. How can I configure this easely I have done the "Application Extension Mapping" for: .asmx, .asax, .cs, .csproj, .resx, .vsdisco to C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v1.1.4322\aspnet_isapi.dll but it still doesn't work.

    - Problem with DirectorySearcher Hi, i'm trying to connect to the Active Directory and perform searches using C# but i'm getting an error when dealing with DirectorySearcher class.

    - Putting a delayed sign assembly into my PC's GAC Hi, I don't know where's the best place to post my question. I hope it suits this group. I have created an assembly with a delay sign attribute set to true in the AssemblyInfo.cs. And the key file attribute points to a "snk" file contains only public key. After I compile the assembly, I set it to skip verification by using "sn.exe -Vr" tool. Doing so, I hoped my PC's GAC won't verify the assembly. But, apparently as I drag the assembly from its location to the GAC folder, there's a "install failed" error: "The check of the signature failed for assembly 'xxxxx.dll'." My questions are: can't I put my delayed sign assembly into GAC? If I can, how can I do it. If not, then how am I suppose to test the whole application with so many common assemblies with delayed signing? Thanks a lot, subi Tag: VB 6 Deployment Batch File in VS.NET Tag: 60259

    - INamingContainer separator - sometimes _ sometimes : Hello I've created a custom web control using the INamingContainer interface. The custom web control has four textboxes and one button. When the button is clicked, a new window is opened and a list is displayed. When an item on the list is selected, the textboxes are populated and the new window is closed. This all works fine (using window.opener in javascript to reference the textboxes from the new window), except that the client ID of the textboxes changes on different pages from being mycontrol_mytextbox to mycontrol:mytextbox (which breaks my javascript code, which is hardcoded to put an underscore between the control name and the textbox name). I figure I have a few approaches to solve this; 1. Find out if there is some way of knowning what separator has been used. or 2. Find some way to force the separator to always be one or the other. or 3. Find a more reliable way to reference the textboxes from hte new window. I have to use INamingContainer because there could be more than one control on the page and the new window has to know which control to populate. Thanks for your help.

    - AppDomain.ExecuteAssembly: want notification when executing assembly starts Hi all, Does anyone know howto receive a notification (event) when the assembly loaded by AppDomain.ExecuteAssembly loads the startup method and begins executing it? I want to give the user a visual (hour glass, etc.) that an application is being loaded while AppDomain.ExecuteAssembly is loading assemblies. Once it begins executing the loaded assembly I want to make the visual go away. I'm using no touch deployment of windows forms apps that are hosted on a Win2003 Server. I have a shell launcher app that calls ExecuteAssembly on the exe assembly at the specified URL. I tried using AppDomain.AssemblyLoad event but it fires every time each referenced assembly in the exe is loaded and I have no way of knowing when the assembly actually begins executing. As it stands now every time the launcher shell is started I get an AppStarting cursor until it is running (usually only takes a second or less) but the cursor disappears from there on until the windows form app is actually up and running. This may take much longer than a second or two because of network delays and assembly sizes. End result is the user thinks that nothing is happening and tries to start the launcher shell again. Thanks for any help. Sincerely, Gregg Walker Tag: VB 6 Deployment Batch File in VS.NET Tag: 60220

    - [Help] Confusion about a NameSpace Name resolution issue... I ran into something that I consider a little strange this weekend and I was wondering if any of the Gurus out there could explain it to me. Here is a sample piece of code that will not compile because of line 11. 1: using System; 2: 3: namespace eyecatcher.System 4: { 5: class CommandLineParser 6: { 7: private string m_sCmdLine; 8: 9: public CommandLineParser() 10: { 11: Parse(System.Environment.CommandLine); <-- Error occurs here. 12: } 13: 14: public CommandLineParser(string sCmd) 15: { 16: Parse(sCmd); 17: } 18: 19: private void Parse(string sCmd) 20: { 21: m_sCmdLine = sCmd; 22: } 23: } 24: } However if I change line 11 to look like this: Parse(Environment.CommandLine); Everything works. I spent a large portion of this weekend looking through the language specs and I could find no reason as to why my code failed. As a matter of fact, it seemed more likely (according to the documentation) that my fix should actually be causing an error and my original code should be correct. Anyways, if anyone has any helpful insights I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks Shawn Anderson Tag: VB 6 Deployment Batch File in VS.NET Tag: 60215

    - Cache class Hello, The Cache class is found in System.Web.Caching namespace. Does that mean it can be used only in ASP.NET application? What about in a client/server situation? Maybe I would like to cache data on the server app. Is there a caching mechanism provided by the framework for that purpose? Or should I just use the same Cache class from System.Web.Caching? I suppose this should work, but I haven't tried it. Thanks. Tag: VB 6 Deployment Batch File in VS.NET Tag: 60214

    - Duplex Printing using the PrintDocument class Hi, I've been trying for quite some time to get duplex printing working with .Net Framework 1.0 (I haven't tested with 1.1 yet). As far as I can tell, I'm correctly setting the PrinterSettings of the PrintDocument. I've also tried setting the PrintDocument.DefaultPageSettings.PrinterSettings. The network printer I'm using supports duplexing, and I've successfully constructed a simple MFC app that duplexes correctly. Does anyone have any ideas, or know of any issues I should be aware of?

In VB6's deployment and package wizard it made a batch file that you could
run to repackage your project. Can I do something like that in VB.NET?

I have a solution that all it does is package up my 15 files into a nice
MSI. Every time I update one of my projects or Dlls (the dlls are not in
dotnet) I have to open up my solution and tell it to rebuild. Is there an
easier way?

Thanks in advance
Chris
