 - 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: Free Balloon tool tip for .NET apps Tag: 95168

 - Match Blank Characters outside Multiline Comments Hi, all, I'm now writing a program to compress JavaScript code. One puzzle is how to write a regular expression to find out and remove all the redundent blank spaces. However, those blank spaces that are in the comments should be kept intact. I've tried to write some Regexs, and I list them here for your information: regex = new Regex(@"/\*[\s\S]*?\*/"); // pattern used to match a multiline comment block regex = new Regex(@"//[^@\n]*\n"); // pattern used to match a single-line comment regex = new Regex(@"(?<!(?://[^\n]*))\s+"); // pattern used to match blank characters outside single-line comments Now the problem is how to match all the continuous blank characters outside multiline comments? I tried the following Regex: regex = new Regex(@"(?<!(?:/\*[\s\S]*))\s+"); but this does not work, and will lead to a CPU dead-loop with no reactions for a long time. I'm a newbie in Regular Expression. Can sombody help me? Thanks a lot! Best regards, Laser Lu Tag: Free Balloon tool tip for .NET apps Tag: 95162

 - Security Exception Hello, I took over a little c#-command-line-programm(connect a db and creates a cvs-file) for upgrading. I always get a security exception when I`m running it from the network on other clients. developer-machine: all works fine- from local and from network. on client-machines: it works locally, but from network I get the security exception I tried to set a lower security-level, and registrated the assembly at the client, but no solve. what am I doing wrong, or what I have to do, for starting the exe from any client without security exception. the "original"-exe does it! any suggestions? best regards tommy Tag: Free Balloon tool tip for .NET apps Tag: 95161

 - Error When Interop'ing to COM+ Managed Object with Library Activation I have a remoting server that is on the same local box as a COM+ managed object with Library Activation. When I try to activate the object from the remoted assembly, I get the following error: "The specified activation could not occur in the client context as specified." The security context of the service application that is activating the object has the proper credentials. It's been years since I've had to deal with COM+ and I'm a bit rusty. Is there some magic that I have to perform to get this interop to work? Thanks, Matt Dinovo dinovom [at] gmail.com Tag: Free Balloon tool tip for .NET apps Tag: 95151

 - HttpWebRequest & SSL problems I have a HttpWebRequest connecting to a SSL server. The server has a valid Verisign certifcate installed, so no client-side cert is needed. I am getting intermittent errors when connecting to the server. One in every five times I try to connect, I see the error: "The underlying connection was closed: Could not establish secure channel for SSL/TLS.)" I tried using a ICertificatePolicy to allow any certificate, but that didn't work. The funny thing is when I load my own certificate using: request.ClientCertificates.Add(X509Certificate.CreateFromCertFile("mycert.cer")); ...I never see the error. However, I don't want to ship the app with a client cert. Suggestions? Tag: Free Balloon tool tip for .NET apps Tag: 95149

 - 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.

 - String Concat vs. Plus operator Does anybody have a definitive, backable answer to which way is better when concating strings (String.Concat vs. +). You can easily prove one faster than the other in contrived examples. I'm interested in real-world examples. My experiments have shown that both versions are equivalent. 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: Free Balloon tool tip for .NET apps 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)?

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.

 - 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: Free Balloon tool tip for .NET apps 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: ------ 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'... 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: Free Balloon tool tip for .NET apps Tag: 95063

The problem is that, the program is hooked up to a wireless network to the server, but if my program is loaded at startup the wifi network doesnt connect, meaning that the program cant get access to the server. If the program is taken out of startup and loaded manually, the wireless network has enough time to connect and everyhting is fine.

We have a situation where we keep hitting below error 1053 The .......... service failed to start due to the following error: The service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion. whenever we try to start managed windows service above a specific number. On one server (SERVER1) it is 25, on another (SERVER2) it is 27. There are 9 different services, each 9 constitutes a release version. Were are trying to use the same server to handle multiple versions, however, we have this limitation where we can only get a max of 3 sites (3 x 9services) at best running. It does not matter which services are running, when we reach this limit no other managed service will start. If I stop one, I can start another. I don't believe it is a licensing issue, we do use Crystal however, the same issue occurs if I do not start those services that use the Crystal dll's. The environment is Windows 2000 server. Framework is 1.0. Any help on this is much appreciated. Rgds Yucel Tag: Free Balloon tool tip for .NET apps Tag: 95025

 - Regex parsing e-mail question. I basically am trying to match something like keyword: (the : and space is a marker. I want everything after that all the way up to the next Keyword: (where keyword HAS to begin a new line. I want everything before the next keyword. (\: ).*(\n[a-zA-z]) comes extremely close except for 2 things. The most important is that it is unable to match patterns where the "content" that I want spans multiple lines . For example in an e-mail it would skip over Received: from unknown (HELO barracuda.domain.com) (127.0.0.1) by 192.168.2.195 with SMTP; 24 Feb 2005 19:16:52 -0000 Also I am wondering if there is a way to specify that I want everything "after" the \: and before the \n . Any help would be greatly appreciated. Below are sample regex and sample input that I am trying to use. and yes google may have bastardized some of the input Regex that I have tried. The first one has produced the closest results.

 - MVP please help - WSAENOBUFS problem Hi, My application uses System.Net.Sockets.Socket class (asynchronously) to implement record sharing. There is a central task that accepts two way connections from multiple clients. There are usually 20-30 sockets open at a given time, but possibly as may as 50-60. As the client uses the software, it usually works fine for several hours, then slows down and eventually generates a WSAENOBUFS error (An operation on a socket could not be performed because the system lacked sufficient buffer space or because a queue was full.) Pertinent information: 0) WSAENOBUFS is always reported by client task and never server task. 1) When a client shuts down, it does: Socket.Shutdown( SocketShutdown.Both ); Socket.Close(); 2) Sockets are opened by client and kept open for the life of the client. 3) Messages sent back and forth are always quite small, usually 40-160 bytes. An average of 40-50 messages in total per minute are sent at peak usage. 4) Maximum number of connecting tasks ranges from 4-25 or so. 5) Server task is always OK. This feels like a resource leak of some sort on the client side, but it seems as though the code is as per the documentation. Can anyone suggest what might be wrong or think of further investigation to undertake? Thanks in advance. Brian Hough Tag: Free Balloon tool tip for .NET apps Tag: 94993
