    - find assemblies in subdirectories We were wondering if there was a way to force .Net to search in subdirectories for assemblies or if anybody knew of some way to do this? So far I've been looking into the appdomain object. I can add some private assembly paths, but didn't know if that's the easiest/best way to do this.

    - Problem creating PerformanceCounters I am trying to create new performance counters using the .Net framework, and even simple examples fail with exceptions. For example, the following code raises an InvalidOperationException while calling CounterExists. The message indicates that the category does not exist (even though the category must exist for the code to have gotten this far) Any thoughts on the problem? I tried with both the 1.0 and 1.1 versions of the framework. regards Mark using System; using System.Diagnostics; using System.Threading; public class PCWrite { public static void Main(string[] args) { string objectName = "MyObj"; string counterName = "MyCounter"; string instanceName = "MyInstance"; if(!PerformanceCounterCategory.Exists(objectName)) { PerformanceCounterCategory.Create(objectName,"Simple Counter Object",counterName,"Simple Counter"); } Console.WriteLine("Category Exists"); if(!PerformanceCounterCategory.CounterExists(objectName, counterName)) { Console.WriteLine("The counter does not exists!"); return; } Console.WriteLine("Counter Exists"); PerformanceCounter aCounter = new PerformanceCounter(objectName, counterName ,instanceName, false); aCounter.RawValue = 50; Console.WriteLine("Press \'q\' to quit the sample"); Console.WriteLine("Press \'+\' to increment the counter"); Console.WriteLine("Press \'-\' to decrement the counter"); Console.WriteLine("Started"); int command; do { command = Console.Read(); if(command=='-') aCounter.IncrementBy(-5); if(command=='+') aCounter.IncrementBy(5); } while(command!='q'); } } Tag: Executing a process & debugging Tag: 95225

    - Graphic: Format16bppGrayScale bitmap ? Hello, I have a 16 bit grayscale bitmap and want to draw this bitmap into another one. Look at the code: void Test(void) { // Beep(200,200); System::Drawing::Bitmap* pBmpSrc=NULL; System::Drawing::Bitmap* pBmpDst=NULL; System::Drawing::Graphics* pGr=NULL; try { pBmpSrc=new Bitmap(50,50,System::Drawing::Imaging::PixelFormat::Format16bppGrayScale); pBmpDst=new Bitmap(50,50,System::Drawing::Imaging::PixelFormat::Format32bppPArgb); pGr=Graphics::FromImage(pBmpDst); pGr->DrawImageUnscaled(pBmpSrc,0,0); } __finally { if(pGr) {pGr->Dispose();} if(pBmpSrc) {pBmpSrc->Dispose();} if(pBmpDst) {pBmpDst->Dispose();} } } The line pGr->DrawImageUnscaled(pBmpSrc,0,0); throws an System::ArgumentException. How can I convert a Format16bppGrayScale-bitmap to a Format32bppPArgb bitmap? Help is recommended, so much thanks in advance. Michael Tag: Executing a process & debugging Tag: 95224

    - Minimum required privileges to get processname Hi, My vb.net console application (.net framework 1.1) is using a call to Process.GetCurrentProcess.ProcessName. the app works fine when I run it as administrator, but I would like the run it with a normal user account using the least possible privileges. Does anyone know what rights need to be set? As test, I already gave the user account the same rights in the Windows Server 2003 local security policy, but this did not work. I am not sure if the .NET framework Process class uses WMI, but adding permissions in WMI control tool did not work either. Thoughts anyone? Tag: Executing a process & debugging Tag: 95219

    - TraceSwitch XML file error I am working through the Windows Applications with C# book by Amit Khalani for the 70-316 exam, I am using VStudio version 7.1.3088. In the chapter on Testing and Debugging there is an example where you are asked to do as follows..... "In Solution Explorer, select View All Files from the toolbar. Navigate to the bin\debug folder. Right-click and Add New Item. Choose to create an XML file and name the file StepByStep12_3.exe.config". You then add some xml code to specify a trace switch. The rest of the project is a basic Form with code that aims to demonstrate various levels of output from the TraceSwitch class by changing the value of the switch that was set in the XML file above. The following variable is declared in the Form... static TraceSwitch traceSwitch = new TraceSwitch("FactorialTrace", "Trace the factorial application"); I managed to do add the xml file to the debug folder after figuring out that you have to choose to select 'Include in the Project' for these normally hidden folders to be available in the IDE. However when I Build the project the new XML file is deleted and therefore the switch value is not picked up. Has anyone come across this behaviour? Maybe there has been a change since the book was written. I have downloaded the errata for the book from the Que website and there is nothing about this chapter being wrong.

    - Array of value-types Another question, related to my previous post: Is array of value types a value type or a reference type?

    - Struct with fixed-length array member - is it possible? Hello, Can you provide some hints on how would you solve a problem like this? I'm out of ideas... Here's the problem: Let's imagine a C structure containing a fixed-size array struct XYZ { int V1; int V2; double V3[50]; }; This structure, when allocated, occupies a contiguous block of memory (408 bytes in my compiler). Now I would like to have the same structure in C#, such that it would have THE SAME MEMORY LAYOUT as the C structure. The memory size does not need to be identical as in C, but the structure should occupy a single memory block and all data, including the array, should be placed in this block. There is no possibility in C# to declare a fixed-size array and to 'embed' it completely in a struct. When I make a declaration like this: public struct XYZ { int V1; int V2; double[] V3; } the V3 member is a reference to array object, not the array itself. Can you think of any way to get the C/C++ layout? Best Regards, Rafal Gwizdala Tag: Executing a process & debugging Tag: 95184

However, many of my controls will not update after the initial display.

    - Using XMLDocument.Load with a memory stream... I am looking for examples that would illustrate something similar to the following requirements: I am building an in-memory xml structure using the following as the setup and classes to perform this step: If fileOutput Then Dim XmlWriter As New XmlTextWriter("D:\QICS_MT\Debug Output\" & _ fileName, System.Text.Encoding.UTF8) XmlWriterXsdMultiLevel(regexObject, _ elementCollection, _ XmlWriter) Else Dim coreStream As New MemoryStream Dim XmlStreamWriter As New StreamWriter(coreStream,Text.Encoding.UTF8) Dim XmlWriter As New XmlTextWriter(XmlStreamWriter) XmlWriterXsdMultiLevel(regexObject, elementCollection, XmlWriter) End If If I take the upper branch I can successfully create and write the document and subsequently I can open the resulting Xml file and validate it against an external xsd file. I would like to be able to take the lower branch and create the same xml structure, yet in this instance I would like to be able to pass the created xml content to an XmDocument class, so that I can pass and use it elsewhere in the application. I am having problems understanding how to use the XmlDocument.Load(Stream) method, though I believe this is how I should do this. I have not found many examples of using this method, so I was looking for assistance in that area. Thanks, Tim Tag: Executing a process & debugging Tag: 95168

    - String.Empty vs. string literal Anybody have a definitive, backable answer to which version performs better: String.Empty vs. ""? Given: private void TestEmptyObject ( string value ) { int nCt = 0; if (value == String.Empty) ++nCt; } My experiments show that they are equivalent except for String.Empty is loaded through ldsfld and "" is loaded through ldstr. They both eventually call String.Equality(string, string) which will treat them the same. My rule is to use "" because to me it is clearer to read. Anybody have a really good reason why String.Empty should be used instead? Of course I'm only talking about a single language here. Understandably String.Empty is useful when trying to represent an empty string in a (programming) language neutral way but this is rare.

Given: void TestStringOp ( string value1, string value2, string value3 ) { string result = value1 + " " + value2 + " and " + value1 + " " + value3; } void TestStringConcat ( string value1, string value2, string value3 ) { string result = String.Concat(value1, " ", value2, " and ", value1, " ", value3); } Dumping the IL for TestStringOp reveals that this is converted to the equivalent of this: string[] temp = new string[] { value1, " ", value2, " and ", value1, " ", value3 }; string result = String.Concat(temp); Dumping the IL for TestStringConcat reveals that the exact same code is generated. Therefore the performance is identical. The bad thing about this is that internally String.Concat will allocate another string array and copy the strings into it before finally calling the fast string allocator. The only time I think Concat is a better choice is when the # of strings to concat is 4 or less. In this case the optimized version of the concat routine is called. Therefore my running rule is that if concatenating 4 or less strings then use String.Concat otherwise it doesn't matter. Understandably timing this code won't be very revealing since the optimizer will probably get rid of all the code anyway but by comparing the IL I should be able to overlook the optimizations that will be done. Anybody have definitive, backable answers to this? Thanks, Michael Taylor - 4/18/05 Tag: Executing a process & debugging Tag: 95140

    - Changed functionality in system.directoryservices ver. 1.1.4322.20 Dear all, we have the following problem. We like to update a LDAP diretory using system.directoryservices. This worked fine in the past but now it stopped working, we get a System.NotSupportedException. We use the following syntax: <DirectoryEntry>.Properties[<attribute>][0] = <value>; Further research turned out that this does work using system.directoryservices.dll 1.1.4322.573 but doesn't work using version 1.1.4322.2032. To investigate the difference I used Reflector (c# disassembler). I found the following code (for set_item) in version 1.1.4322.2032: if (this.needNewBehavior && !this.allowMultipleChange) { throw new NotSupportedException(); } base.List[index] = value; Version 1.1.4322.573 doesn't has this "if" criteria, it simply sets the value. If I look at the values using the debugger I see that this.allowMultipleChange is false and needNewBehavior is true, therefore I get a NotSupportedException(). So now I have a huge problem: I can't update my LDAP anymore. Can anybody help me with this problem? Or does anybody know where I can find documentation about the differences in the different releases of a dll? Or does anybody know where I can find system.directoryservices newsgroups? Or does anybody know how to contact miscrosoft about this matter (somebody must have changed the code for some reason without documenting it)?

    - Help! What is wrong here ? I am trying to pass a filename or file location to a stored proc and am getting an SqlException. I am using C# in .NET with SQL 2000. I believe the error is in the line where I set the value but then again what do I know? Here is part of my code: SqlCommand myCommand = new SqlCommand("sp_test", myConnection); myCommand.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure; SqlParameter myParam = new SqlParameter("@xmlFile", SqlDbType.Text, 1000); myParam.value = "c:\\test.xml"; myCommand.Parameters.Add(myParam); myConnection.Open(); try { myCommand.ExecuteNonQuery(); etc etc It gets an error at the above execution point with the error: SqlException: System.Data.SqlClient.SqlError: XML Parsing error: Invalid at the top level of the document. I think I need to give it some command where I specify the value to say find the location of the file...... Why is is so difficult to pass a filename or location of file to a SPROC ? Please help!

    - Regular expression captures Hi, From the following string I would like to capture text. String: This action has been executed via Console First of all I like to know if this is the text I need: it must contain "This action has been executed via". Secondly I would like to know "Console" How can Regular expressions help me in this. I've tried various things with the RegEx class but I'm having troubles retrieving "Console". The match.Captures collection always seems to contain the string searched, not only the captured part. RegEx r = RegEx( "This action has been executed", RegExOptions.IgnoreCase) if (r.Matches( myString).Count > 0) { Here matches are found and r.Matches[0].Captures.Count > 0. Why is ...Captures.Count > 0, I did ask for a capture? } RegEx q = RegEx( "(C\w+)", RegExOptions.IgnoreCase) if (q.Matches( myString).Count > 0) { Here matches are found and r.Matches[0].Captures.Count > 0. This is where I expected the capture!! } regards, Erik Tag: Executing a process & debugging Tag: 95118

    - Code isolation with the AppDomain class I am responsible for the plugin-loading part of an app. One of the things the loader has to do is check licensing, and unload any unlicensed plugins. I naively did this as: AppDomain Sandbox = AppDomain.CreateDomain("Sandbox"); try { Assembly Suspect = Sandbox.Load(PluginName); // do some tests on Suspect.GetExportedTypes() } finally { AppDomain.Unload(Sandbox); } The code seemed to work, but it turns out that Sandbox.Load(PluginName) is actually loading the PluginName into both the Sandbox AppDomain and the default AppDomain. When I unload Sandbox, I'm left with all tested plugins still loaded into the default AppDomain, whether they are licensed or not. I do NOT want to execute any assemblies: I just want to load my suspects; do some tests in the temp AppDomain; and return the test results to the default AppDomain. It looks like my only option is to use AppDomain.DoCallBack to execute my tests, and use SetData to store the results.

    - Updating Service Installers This is a question from the automated practice test that comes with the Micrsoft MCSD boxed set of books. I think it's wrong. You create a Windows Service that connects to a SQL Server data source when a user logs on. You find that because of network problems the client application disconnects from the data source. You need to change the Windows Service so that it checks the connection every five minutes and reconnects to the data source if the connection is broken. You need to add this functionality to the Windows Service, so you uninstall the service add the functionality. You then rebuild and reinstall the service. However, when you run the service, you cannot see the newly added functionality. Which of the following tasks should you perform to view the new functionality? (Choose one correct option.) 1) Update the existing installers, and then rebuild the service application. 2) Debug the service, and find out why you cannot view the functionality. 3) Remove the existing installers, add new installers, and then rebuild the service aplication. 4) Verify the permissions for the security context, and then rebuild the service application. Answer: 3 (???) What does removing the installers do? If you look at the code in the studio-generated installers, it just consists of basic properties like the service name and the account. Why would removing the installers and adding identical installers have any impact at all? Tag: Executing a process & debugging Tag: 95072

    - .NET SP1 messed up... Hi... I recently installed .NET1.1 SP1 from the windows update website (this cannot be uninstalled). Also installed MS Installer 3.1, which I uninstalled now, after facing problems in VStudio. This is what happened: I had a solution with several projects and a setup project. After installing .NET1.1 SP1, whenever I start to 'Build' the setup project, it stops after the first line: <i>------ Starting pre-build validation for project 'Setup' ------ ------ Pre-build validation for project 'Setup' completed ------ ------ Build started: Project: Setup, Configuration: Debug ------ Building file 'C:\...\Visual Studio Projects\Project1\Setup\Debug\Setup.msi'...</i> Then MSIEXEC.EXE shows up in the task manager process list - It now comes up with a dialog saying it is looking for VS .NET 2003 installation vs_setup.msi file. I have to cancel out of this dialog so the 'Build' can proceed. However, this problem remains even after I uninstalled MS Installer 3.1. So something must be wrong with SP1. Anybody knows about any problems with .NET1.1 SP1? Is there a fix for this? Can I get rid of SP1 if I reinstall .NET1.1? TIA Dumbo DotNet Tag: Executing a process & debugging Tag: 95063

I've been looking for a way to run an executable from within my C# code which
allows any assemblies used by the executable to be attached to the debugger
within Visual Studio. Using Process.Start() by itself isn't halting on
breakpoints within my code. I know there is a way to do this, because VS
behaves this way when launching an external program through the Configuration
Settings -> Debugging -> Start Application settings of a project.
