    - Creating extra classes I recently upgraded from VS 2003 to VS 2005. In VS 2003 all I had to do to make an extra class was put the following in a *.vb file: Imports System.Web.UI Imports System.Web.UI.WebControls Public Class MiscExtras Public Shared Sub AddRollover(ByVal img As Web.UI.WebControls.Image, ByVal rollover As String) 'Adds the rollover feature to an Image or ImageButton (or other class that inherits from an Image) img.Attributes.Add("onmouseover", "this.src='" & rollover & "';") img.Attributes.Add("onmouseout", "this.src='" & img.ImageUrl & "';") End Sub End Class And then to access it from a file in the same I would use the following: MiscExtras.AddRollover(imgHomeButton, "images/MenuBarButtons/HomeRollover.gif") However, when I try to do this in Visual Studio .NET 2005 I get the error 'Name MiscExtras is not declared.'. I also tried putting the file in the App_Data directory that is automatically created, but it did not make any difference. What am I doing wrong?

    - ImageAttributes isn't working Hello, For some reason this ImageAttributes isn't doing what I tell it. I'm not sure what I am missing.

    - Convert to Long from Double that is over 18 digit long from Oracle This is a serious bug in .NET 1.1 Using SQL select one field from Oracle table, This column Oracle data type is: Number(18), the field value is: 235312035283022003 which is the correct value. However, using DataReader, (We want the end result is long type, the only way is GetDouble(reader,0)) Here is the horrible result .NET Returns: long viewId = 0;//We want the end result is long type, double dViewId = reader.GetDouble(0); viewId = (long)dViewId; // we get 235312035283022016 string sViewId = dViewId.ToString("R");//we get "2.35312035283022E+17" sViewId = dViewId.ToString("F0");//we get 235312035283022000 viewId = long.Parse(sViewId);//235312035283022000 No matter what, we cannot get the correct value: 235312035283022003 This bug happenend when double value reaching 18 digit long. It is fine when under 17 digit. Any known work around? How Microsoft proved .NET is able to be mission-critical? We are a leading Telecom company, currently reaching the buggy-threshold in our billing system due to this bug. Any help are appreciated. Thanks.

    - ASP.NET: VSNET2003 to VSNET2005 I just upgraded from Visual Studio .NET 2003 to Visual Studio .NET 2005. There are several questions I have about the code differences between them (I use VB.NET for as my language of choice): 1. 2003 used "Public Class classname" and 2005 uses "Partial Class classname". What, if any, difference is there between these? 2. The following things are included in the #Region " Web Form Designer Generated Code " part of 2003's code, and are not included automatically in 2005: <System.Diagnostics.DebuggerStepThrough()> Private Sub InitializeComponent() End Sub Control declarations, such as: Protected WithEvents lblWebsite As System.Web.UI.WebControls.Label Private designerPlaceholderDeclaration As System.Object Private Sub Page_Init(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Init InitializeComponent() End Sub Do I need to include any of these manually or anything else that serves their purpose? 3. In 2003 the Page Events use clauses such as Handles MyBase.Load while 2005 uses Handles Me.Load. I am assuming that these will work the same? I am sure that I will run into the other differences between the two, but these are some of the important ones for me right now.

I have several projects that I created in Visual Studio .NET 2003, but when I try to open them in Visual Studio .NET 2005 it tries to force me to convert them. for some of these it would be fine, but some of them run on servers that do not support .NET 2.0 yet, I simply want to edit the code remotely but not convert anything.

    - How to Stop a Listening socket? I'm trying to make a simple little asynchronous socket server. It accepts connections, reads and writes, but I can't make it gracefully stop listening. listener.listen(1) listener.beginaccept(...) If before anyone has attempted to connect, I try to stop the listener socket, I get nasty errors, which I can trap, but it is not obvious that it has actually stopped or that the asynchronous callback system has been aborted. This should be trivial. What am I missing? Tag: Framework 2.0CD vs WU Redistributable Tag: 118518

    - Now I need to do this without breaking ASP.Net I've been struggling for two weeks now to duplicate a VB6 ActiveX control in VB.Net, and also improve it's functionality. The control is used to collect the user's fingerprint and compare it to a stored copy on the server, and if the match is successful fill some hidden fields with values and call a form submit. We wanted to use web services rather than direct SQL connections as we do now, and to also have the web service URL set dynamically. We built the project as a Windows Control (DLL) class with COM Class and COM Visible set to True. We were able to get the control to load in IE, but due to the need to interface with the local USB fingerprint device we had to list the web site as Trusted and elevate the Trusted Zone to perform no security checks (Problem #1). The class required a couple of DLL files to function properly, and as expected we were able to put them in the same folder as the class DLL file and they were downloaded automatically. The problem was the App.Config file, it never would download. (Problem #2) We recently figured out that apparently a DLL can't make use of App.Config, but the calling app can. This explained seeing the client attempt to download iexplore.exe.config in the web logs. To make matters worse, it wasn't attempting to download the file from the location of the class DLL, but rather from the root of the web site and from /bin folder. (Problem #3) So we renamed the App.Config file and placed it in the root. It still would not download, this time with 403 Errors which we determined were the ASP.Net interpreter trying to process the file rather than allow direct access. (Problem #4) We decided to remove the parsing of .config files from the configuration of the root web app, which finally allowed everything to execute properly. But now, if we had any web.config files in the root app, they would be open to being freely downloaded, and might not even work at all (Problem #5) I just know there has to be a better way to do this. I cannot believe that it's this difficult with .Net to duplicate and improve on the functionality we had using VB6. Perhaps someone with experience in things such as this will step forward and point us in another direction. Thanks, Patrick Bates Tag: Framework 2.0CD vs WU Redistributable Tag: 118516

    - RSACryptoServiceProvider.VerifyData Hangs I have found that RSACryptoServiceProvider.VerifyData sometimes hangs for several (typically 6 or more) seconds. This is very irritating since a component that I am using makes this call every time a form in my application opens. The entire application freezes. Obviously it makes my application very sluggish. Mind you, on some machines the above always seems to be very quick. And on others it can be quick for several minutes, and then start hanging for a while. I'm using .Net Framework 2.0. Here is some sample code from my very basic "hello world" application, followed by the trace output (generated using Enterprise Library)... public static void Trace(string message) { Logger.Write(message, "Trace", 0, 0, TraceEventType.Information); } private RSACryptoServiceProvider encryptionService = new RSACryptoServiceProvider(); private string publicKey = [I have an approximately 340 character xml formatted string here] private string xmlData = [I have an approximately 470 character xml formatted string here] private string Signature = [I have an approximately 200 character base 64 encoded string here] private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) { Trace("Before encryptionService.FromXmlString"); encryptionService.FromXmlString(publicKey); Trace("After LicenseProviderBase.EncryptionService.FromXmlString"); Trace("Before encryptionService.VerifyData"); bool result = encryptionService.VerifyData(Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(this.xmlData), new SHA1Managed(), Convert.FromBase64String(this.Signature)); Trace("After encryptionService.VerifyData"); } ---------------------------------------- Timestamp: 6/29/2006 4:54:07 PM Message: Before encryptionService.FromXmlString Category: Trace Priority: 0 EventId: 0 Severity: Information Title: Machine: CHL0130 Application Domain: HelloWorld.exe Process Id: 3056 Process Name: C:\Program Files\HelloWorld\HelloWorld.exe Win32 Thread Id: 3876 Thread Name: Extended Properties: ---------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------- Timestamp: 6/29/2006 4:54:08 PM Message: After LicenseProviderBase.EncryptionService.FromXmlString Category: Trace Priority: 0 EventId: 0 Severity: Information Title: Machine: CHL0130 Application Domain: HelloWorld.exe Process Id: 3056 Process Name: C:\Program Files\HelloWorld\HelloWorld.exe Win32 Thread Id: 3876 Thread Name: Extended Properties: ---------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------- Timestamp: 6/29/2006 4:54:08 PM Message: Before encryptionService.VerifyData Category: Trace Priority: 0 EventId: 0 Severity: Information Title: Machine: CHL0130 Application Domain: HelloWorld.exe Process Id: 3056 Process Name: C:\Program Files\HelloWorld\HelloWorld.exe Win32 Thread Id: 3876 Thread Name: Extended Properties: ---------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------- Timestamp: 6/29/2006 4:54:14 PM Message: After encryptionService.VerifyData Category: Trace Priority: 0 EventId: 0 Severity: Information Title: Machine: CHL0130 Application Domain: HelloWorld.exe Process Id: 3056 Process Name: C:\Program Files\HelloWorld\HelloWorld.exe Win32 Thread Id: 3876 Thread Name: Extended Properties: ---------------------------------------- Tag: Framework 2.0CD vs WU Redistributable Tag: 118515

    - Up/down value conversions Greetings, We are using an up/down control to facilitate numeric data entry, however, we are noticing issues converting from the up/down value (apparently a Decimal) to the units we are working with (Double) and vice versa. There appear to be precision issues, and then we take those numbers and scale them according to our application requirements. Needless to say, the results are anything but what we might expect. We could be doing some wacky scaling, but notwithstanding that, is there anything we can do to help clean up the conversion between Decimal and Double? Or is the answer to provide a control that better-supports a Double-compatible input? Any suggestions are welcome. Thanks in advance.

    - MS Unit test and CruiseControl.Net integration Hi All, We are currently running continous integration using a server running cruise control.net. This server does not have VS2005 installed on it, only the .Net framework. Previously, we have been using Nunit to write our tests but I thought I would give the integrated MS unit test a go and submitted these test to source control.... Which has broken the build because the Microsoft.VisualStudio.QualityTools.UnitTestFramework dll is not present on the server.... So my question is, can you run MS unit tests as part of an automated build process without having a full install of VS2005 on the integration server? Thanks in advance!

    - Creation of HTTP streaming server using .NET HttpListener Hi, I'm posting this in the general .NET forum because I'm not sure into which subcategory this belongs. I've searched through the newsgroups and found many posts related to audio/video streaming mainly using the Windows Media Services. I'm trying to create an HTTP server in C# (using HttpListener, HttpListenerRequest and HttpListenerResponse) where I can stream videos to potentially any media player that can stream via HTTP (WMP, RealMedia, VLC). The reason why I want to do it this way is because I already have a stream in the ASF format, so I just need to split it in packets and send it out. So far I haven't been able to get a stream to work correctly primarily because I wasn't able to setup the response parameters to what they'd need to be. It seems that I either have to set the 'Transfer-encoding' to 'chunked' or specify the content length. Has anyone done anything similar to this with these classes or does anyone know if that's possible at all? Thanks. Tag: Framework 2.0CD vs WU Redistributable Tag: 118469

    - Update Profile of Created User I've created my own version of the CreateUserWizard control that gathers up all the information I need when a user requests an account. Once all the data is gathered and validated, the FinishButtonClick property calls a method that does the following: 1. Creates the user account: Membership.CreateUser(myName, myPwd, myName, myQue, myAns, true, out createStatus); (I'm using the email address (myName) as the username, which is why it shows up twice) 2. I then want to update the newly created user's profile with the information that was entered: Profile.UserInfo.UserEmail = UserName.Text; Profile.UserInfo.FirstName = FirstName.Text; Profile.UserInfo.MiddleInitial = MI.Text; ..etc. I do not want these profiles created for anonymous users, so my web.config file looks like this: <anonymousIdentification enabled="false" /> <properties> <group name="UserInfo"> <add name="FirstName" type="System.String" allowAnonymous="false" /> <add name="MiddleInitial" type="System.String" allowAnonymous="false" /> <add name="LastName" type="System.String" allowAnonymous="false" /> ..etc. </group> </properties> I have tried several methods to ensure that the newly created user is logged in, by using the Membership.ValidateUser(), the FormsAuthentications.AuthorizeUser(), and none of them have worked. However the MembershipUser object returned by the CreateUser method shows that that user is currently OnLine. I always end up with the following error message the moment I try to call the SetPropertyValue of the first profile property: "This property cannot be set for anonymous users." Note that I do not want the user to be able to log in yet until their account has been approved, so once the profile info is created I would have to log them out and set their account to Inactive.

Its seems simple enough, but after changing them in response to a change in an option group, I can't figure out how to get the combobox to refresh itself with the new settings. I've tried the combobox.refresh() method. Anyone know how to get the combo box to refresh itself? thanks -- dchman Tag: Framework 2.0CD vs WU Redistributable Tag: 118451

    - OrderedDictionary - to retrieve objects in same order Hi, I want to use OrderedDictionary to get my objects in same order as they are inserted in. I also want to access the objects using a key. So my question is whether this is the best option or there is some better collection object than OD. The current MSDN documentation dosn't says anything in favor or against OD for retrieving object in order. Remember I don't want ot sort objects on keys or anything else. Thanks in advance, Suhaib Tag: Framework 2.0CD vs WU Redistributable Tag: 118448

    - Managed to unmanaged performance Hi all Existing COM ATL DLL wrapping a C++ library. Interoping from a C# application, passing a large string containng XML (5-130kb). Need to significantly improve performance of both the interoping and the performance of the native functions (performance critical app). Opinions sought on most worthwhile course of action...have identified 4 options... 1. Implement a managed C++ wrapper and link to underling C++ functions, marshalling non-native types where necessary. Thus eliminating COM (quick win?) 2. Re-write C++ code in C#. (no quick win, not possible to re-write all of it also) 3. Recompile C++ code with VC7 or higher (currently VC6)...quick win? 4. Re-architect C++ code (no quick win) Thanks all Tag: Framework 2.0CD vs WU Redistributable Tag: 118432

    - way using splash screen Hi, Just think to get some comment from communitiy regarding best pratice using splash screen. If we develop an application that need loading database to dataset it's we need done it at main page fill up all nessarcy table to dataset. since the splash screen only counter the main page loading time. If I only loading database from second form than user will need to wait without notification. It seen like bad experience to the user for waiting so long of time to display out another form. another example like crystal report. normally we will load crystal report in from that is not the main form. mostly loading crystal report requere alot of time to getting display out. But think in others way, if I load all the form when the project is start then will consume allot of memory. So what is the best way to develop a good application. Thanks for any comment.

    - Announcement: NLog 1.0 RC1 is available! NLog 1.0 Release Candidate 1 is available. NLog is a .NET logging library designed with simplicity and flexibility in mind. With NLog you can process diagnostic messages emitted from any .NET language, augment them with contextual information, format them according to your preference and send them to one or more targets. The API (application programming interface) is similar to log4net, and the configuration is very simple. NLog uses a routing table while log4net uses a logger hierarchy with attachable appenders. This makes NLog's configuration very easy to read and maintain. The highlights of this release are: * Completely rewritten tutorial featuring nice screenshots. * Visual Studio 2005 Integration * Ready-to-run example projects for VS2005. * Optimized File target that can write to multiple files at once from multiple processes while keeping the files open. * Automatic archiving of log files (a.k.a. "rolling file" target) * New WebService and CSVFile targets. * Even more speed improvements in the non-logging area. Project homepage is: http://www.nlog-project.org/ Release notes can be found at: http://www.nlog-project.org/releasenotes.html Get the files at: http://www.nlog-project.org/download.html Tag: Framework 2.0CD vs WU Redistributable Tag: 118404

Hello everyone,
I recently ordered the CD's for 1.1 and 2.0 to avoid the long download time.
I"m only using them to run apps that require them, no program development in
mind. The 1.1 is the same size as is offered on WU, but the 2.0 on CD is
87.59MB vs WU at 22.4. Does anyone know what the difference would be? I've
been all over the site but can"t find this info.
