    - DataTable.Merge() I'm a little confused about DataTable.Merge(). I have two DataTable objects with the same structure - dtOrig and dtCurrent. The end result I'm trying to achieve is to get all the rows in dtCurrent that are in some way different from the corresponding rows in dtOrig so those new/ modified/deleted rows can be processed. My idea was to use dtOrig.Merge(dtCurrent), and then call dtOrig.GetChanges(). But what I found is that when the preserveChanges Merge() parameter is 'false' (or not supplied) the values in dtOrig do get updated, but the RowState stays 'Unchanged'. When preserveChanges is 'true' then the RowState for all rows becomes 'Modified' but the values in dtOrig are NOT actually updated! What am I missing here? Is there a better way to go about this? Thanks. Tag: VB 2005 Serial Port Close() Method Tag: 129530

    - SslStream caching and Vista: Hi. When my client program runs under XP and calls a server (solaris in this case) via an SslStream all is well. The client may make multiple calls and multiple authentication calls and be fine. Running the client under Vista, when the second authentication call is made it returns the following SSPI error: "A call to the SSPI failed, see inner exception" which reads "the Local Security Authority cannot be contacted" Well that was pretty mystifying so I looked at what was going on with ethereal. Apparently, on the second authentication go-round the client asks the server to re-use a session Id. The client responds and then Vista rejects a re-used session Id (even though it asked to do that). What I have found out is that the .net framework seems to cache SslStream sessions automatically, I have not found any way to turn this off for Vista - any ideas on how to do this?

    - case values in switch statement? Hi, guys, I have a switch statement like the follows in a KeyPress event: switch (e.KeyChar) { case '0' - '9': case 'A' - 'Z': break; default: break; } Of course, this did not work. But, how can I do such kind of case values which are in a range without writing each case value one by one? Thanks a lot. Tag: VB 2005 Serial Port Close() Method Tag: 129521

    - Overriding "OnXXX" versus adding event handler Okay, this has come up in the past but I haven't seen anything that I would call a good, solid general rule. The question applies more generally, but I'm going to ask in the context of a Control. How does one decide whether to write an "override" method to an event and when to simply add an event handler for that event? For example, you can either write a new OnPaint override, or you can register a delegate that the Control's base OnPaint method will execute. My current thought is that when you are not inheriting from the base class, you register a delegate (duh, since you obviously have no way to override the method in that case), and when you are inheriting from the base class, you override the method (the main reason here being that if you're inheriting from the base class, you want your new functionality to always work, rather than relying on your delegate remaining in the event handler list). In other words, override when you can, add an event handler if you can't. Is it really as simple as that? Or are there other factors I should be considering? Many thanks in advance for the wisdom of those who have gone down this road before me. :) Pete Tag: VB 2005 Serial Port Close() Method Tag: 129495

    - convert an object to string and back (in a culture independent fashion) to store user preference in our application we have an 'hand written' XML file. (as opposed to XmlSerializer written one, which crash sometimes, on some user's computer, for some unknown reason.. but I'm digressing) In this XML file I store object value, which I convert to string (when writting) and from string (when reading) with a couple of simple function which (should) do a reversible conversion (using TypeConverter) (functions below). Unfortunately, for some Enum, (namely System.Windows.Forms.Keys) I got a culture dependent string, even though I specify CultureInfo.InvariantCulture as an argument in my ConvertXXX method with the TypeConverter. Even using 'new CultureInfo("en")' do not fix this behavior. Any tip on how to fix these function (below) so they provide a truly culture independent reversible object=>string=>object mechanism? =================================================== public static bool TryGetStringValue<T>(object val, out string ret) { if (val is string) { ret = (string)val; return true; } TypeConverter tc = TypeDescriptor.GetConverter(typeof(T)); if (tc == null) { ret = val.ToString(); return false; } try { ret = tc.ConvertToString(null, CultureInfo.InvariantCulture, val); return true; } catch (ArgumentException) { } catch (NotSupportedException) { } ret = val.ToString(); return false; } public static bool TryGetTValue<T>(object val, out T tval) { if (val is T) { tval = (T)val; return true; } TypeConverter tc = TypeDescriptor.GetConverter(typeof(T)); if (tc == null) { tval = default(T); return false; } if (!tc.IsValid(val)) { tval = default(T); return false; } try { tval = (T)tc.ConvertFrom(null, CultureInfo.InvariantCulture, val); return true; } catch (ArgumentException) { } catch (NotSupportedException) { } tval = default(T); return false; } =================================================== Tag: VB 2005 Serial Port Close() Method Tag: 129493

    - Windows Workflow - What basic tutorials? What's going on here? I thought I was an experienced programmer but I'm looking at the beginning WWF tutorial (Simple Expense Report) and I'm baffled. I feel like I don't know how to even begin reading this. I thought this was supposed to be interactive coding. Since when do we cut and paste into a project file? Is this just a temporary Beta thing? Why this constant use of command prompts? Also I have downloaded other samples onto my machine and none of them seem to work correctly. In the OrderingStateMachine demo, I get the error message: "The project file <C:\data\Visual Studio 2005\OrderingStateMachine\VB\OrderWorkFlows\OrderWorkFlows.vbproj cannot be opened. The project type is not supported by this installation." ?????? Could someone direct me to a more user-friendly, comprehensible tutorial? Tag: VB 2005 Serial Port Close() Method Tag: 129485

    - Truly cross platform? The thread bellow titled 'Determining if two paths are the same' brings to mind some of the first 'things' I had heard way back when DotNet started. It was going to be the panacea of cross platform development. I am asking the question here of the group to find out if everyone (anyone) thinks this has come (or is coming) to fruition. I think that perhaps it has gone a long way towards making it simpler to communicate between platforms but I am not sure if the framework itself has actually made it to the cross platform development hall of fame just yet. What do you folks think is the possibility of truly doing that? Looking at the mono project and actually trying to use it in some productive manner has showed me that this is far off. Just trying to get it working along with GDK and Mono-develop on a fedora Core 6 system was an exercise in futility. While I can understand what drives the open source community I honestly can't understand what keeps it going when stuff is that hard. I can install VS.NET 2005 and be developing in an hour. Hello world in Mono-develop never came to life. But, I digress and that is another rant for another message area. So, what are your thoughts and ideas?

    - Locking Desktop and Threading Issue Hi, I have an application that displays forms on the users desktop, what I am doing with it is having a SystemEvents SessionSwitchEventHandler to capture the lock of the desktop, I would like to kill the forms when this event is captured, that piece is fine, but I would like to sleep the app until the SessionSwitchReason.SessionUnlock happens then I can wake it again and go the correct part of the code? Can I wake a sleeping thread, or should I not sleep the thread at all, is there another way to get the thread to sleep or hibernate and then wake up?

    - .Net Windows Service ...data access problem Hi, I am writing a .NET windows Service that will access the database every 10 minutes. When the service calls the function in the business services layer which in turn calls the correponding function in data access layer, this DAL function fails. The reason 'apparently' being that the it can not read the connection string information and hence can not create the database connection. Please note that that I am using enterprise library. All the projects representing business service layer, DAL, Model, Web UI and also the the windows service project are all in the same solution. Can anyone tell me what should I do to get around this problem. Thanks -Sam Tag: VB 2005 Serial Port Close() Method Tag: 129470

    - Installation problem - MSDN Libs for VS2005 I'm trying to jury-rig an installation of MSDN for VS2005 from ISO disks. The company I'm working for has an 'install drive' so I'm not sure of the pedigree of these directories. Essentially, since I don't have a CD burner at my disposal, I'm trying to run the installation directly from the ISO images using Microsoft's Virtual CD-ROM Control Panel v2.0.1.1. The problem is as follows: It doesn't matter if I run the setup on the first MSDN disk or call MSDN installation directly from VS2005's setup screen. Either way I get an error message saying: "Error 1311. Source file not found. U:\_17693_RTL_x86_enu_NET_Framework_SDK_HxS.cab. Verify that the file exists and that you can access it." I should note that given the current mounting scheme, the 3 ISO images are disks T, U, and V and presumably software on the T drive should be running. So how could it know about the U drive in the first place and why didn't it issue a standard Insert Disk prompt? (The file definitely exists and I can even copy it.)

    - The Interlocked on the Edge of Forever I've got a quick question that's been bugging me for a long, long time: Let's say I've got a member variable (in a heavily threaded app): private int _firstTime = 0; To make changes to this is easy enough: InterlockedExchange(ref _firstTime, 1); ... or I can use the InterlockedCompareExchange: int oldValue = InterlockedCompareExchange(ref _firstTime, 1, 0); No problems here. ... but, if I just want to read the value, I CANNOT do: int myValue = _firstTime; or if (_fistTime==0) Doing these requires a memory barrier of some type (volatile variable, monitor, etc) to have any degree of reliability. Now, reading the value out using InterlockedCompareExchange always seemed a bit silly to me. I don't want to always write: int myValue = InterlockedCompareExchange(ref _firstTime, Int32.MinValue, Int32.MinValue); I've never found (although not for lack of looking): int myValue = InterlockedRead(ref _firstTime); Of the code that I write, reading the value, and branching based on it's value, is much more common than writing to the value. I have, in the past, used volitile variables for this - but I've stopped due to the various issues regarding volatiles (non atomic reads & writes). Is there a concensus on the best way to do this? It seems like all the solutions are.... incomplete. Essentially I'm looking for a volitile varaiable that is atomically read and written. Unfortuantly, these don't exist in any language I've yet used. -- Chris Mullins, MCSD.NET, MCPD:Enterprise, Microsoft C# MVP http://www.coversant.com/blogs/cmullins Tag: VB 2005 Serial Port Close() Method Tag: 129446

    - How to tell which window becomes the foregroud window right away? Hello, I followed the MS instructions to subclass Windows using C#.net (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/815775) as the follows. I then opened several Excel files, and selected anyone of them as foreground window. I was expecting to see windows message, saying WM_ACTIVATE, or something like that, however, to my surprise, I saw NO windows message when I randomly selected those Excel windows, (although I could see other window messages, e.g., WM_GETTEXT). It was said that this was because "Subclassing this way only works for windows in its own process, not in other applications." Then, is there a way to make it work on other processes? Will automation will make the "other application" in the same process of our application? My goad is: Tell which (e.g. Excel) window becomes the active one AS SOON AS a (e.g. Excel) window becomes active. Thanks a lot. -------------------- Add a new Class module that is named SubclassHWND.cs to the Visual C# .NET or Visual C# 2005 application. To do this, click Add Class on the Project menu. 2. In the Name text box, type SubclassHWND.cs, and then click Open. 3. Replace the SubclassHWND class code with the following code:public class SubclassHWND : NativeWindow { protected override void WndProc(ref Message m) { // Perform whatever custom processing you must have for this message System.Diagnostics.Debug.WriteLine(m.ToString()); // forward message to base WndProc base.WndProc(ref m); } } 4. To demonstrate its use, add the following code to the Load event of Form1:SubclassHWND s = new SubclassHWND(); s.AssignHandle(this.Handle); //Now s should be listening to the messages of the form.

    - DataSet fields not updating, no errors being generated I am using a web service to update some database fields. I used the dataset designer to define my datatable and tableadapter. I had it automatically create the insert, update, and delete statements. When I run the update method, all of the fields are updated except for four datetime fields. Another attribute these fields have in common is that they allow nulls. When the method runs, the values in the fields are not overwritten, they are simply not changed. Here is the code used for the updating: PurchaseOrderTableAdapter dAdapter = new PurchaseOrderTableAdapter(); PoDataSet.PurchaseOrderDataTable ds = dAdapter.GetDataByPoID(poID); foreach (PoDataSet.PurchaseOrderRow dataRow1 in ds) { dataRow1["PONumber"] = poNumber; dataRow1["ConfirmingTo"] = confirmingTo; dataRow1["poDate"] = poDate; dataRow1["ReqDate"] = reqDate; dataRow1["CancelDate"] = cancelDate; dataRow1["AllowBackOrder"] = allowBackOrder; dataRow1["ShipTo"] = shipTo; dataRow1["BillTo"] = billTo; dataRow1["ShipVia"] = shipVia; dataRow1["FOBPoint"] = fobPoint; dataRow1["Terms"] = terms; dataRow1["IsPlaced"] = isPlaced; dataRow1["placeDate"] = datePlaced; } try { dAdapter.Update(ds); } catch (Exception e) { return 1 + e.Message; } return "0"; I am new to C# and .net in general. Any ideas as to why this method is not updating the "placeDate", "poDate", "ReqDate", and "CancelDate" fields? The variables used are defined as DateTime types. As I said, there are no errors flagged during the process. Your advice is greatly appreciated. -- Alex Tag: VB 2005 Serial Port Close() Method Tag: 129403

    - deadlock on a single Select not in a transaction Hi, We have a web application developped in asp.net (I think it's not relevant, but well, it's so you know)... Yesterday, we received the following message "Transaction (Process ID 69) was deadlocked on lock resources with another process and has been chosen as the deadlock victim. Rerun the transaction. " The thing is, the query was a simple select with inner joins between 3 tables (like select fields from table1 inner join table2... inner join table3....). This command is not in a transaction, so the deadlock seems impossible. And moreover, the deadlock occurs on the DataReader.Read() not on the Command.ExecuteReader(...). Can someone explain why the deadlock can have occured and what could be the cause and solution to it?

I look via the EventViewer and can see messages that are place there via my app. Is there a way to specify that the entry is an error? warning? Something other than "Information"? Thank you.

    - Subclassing question. Hello, I followed the MS instructions to subclass Windows using C#.net (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/815775) as the follows. I then opened several Excel files, and selected anyone of them as foreground window. I was expecting to see windows message, saying WM_ACTIVATE, or something like that, however, to my surprise, I saw NO windows message when I randomly selected those Excel windows, (although I could see other window messages, e.g., WM_GETTEXT). What was wrong here? I need to be able to tell which Excel window is the active one programmatically. Was this a right approach for this purpose? Any papers? Thanks a lot. -------------------- Add a new Class module that is named SubclassHWND.cs to the Visual C# .NET or Visual C# 2005 application. To do this, click Add Class on the Project menu. 2. In the Name text box, type SubclassHWND.cs, and then click Open. 3. Replace the SubclassHWND class code with the following code:public class SubclassHWND : NativeWindow { protected override void WndProc(ref Message m) { // Perform whatever custom processing you must have for this message System.Diagnostics.Debug.WriteLine(m.ToString()); // forward message to base WndProc base.WndProc(ref m); } } 4. To demonstrate its use, add the following code to the Load event of Form1:SubclassHWND s = new SubclassHWND(); s.AssignHandle(this.Handle); //Now s should be listening to the messages of the form.

    - On Adobe's Flash & Flex in ASP.NET I have been asked to create some simple animation using Adobe Flash player in ASP.NET(C#) web application. While I am fairly well versed with ASP.NET C#, I absolutely have NO IDEA about how to say "Hello World" in a Flash enabled web page rendered via ASP.NET. Can any one let me get started? --- By the way, there is a NEWS today about Adobe Flex 2, which I can not comprehend. There are getting started articles for PHP developers on Adobe's website but nothing for ASP.NET developers. http://news.com.com/Adobe+to+open-source+Flash+tool+Flex/2100-7344_3-6179305.html It will be nice to hear something from experienced people. Microsoft folks too are urged to speak something. How Microsfott's Silverlight fits into all this? Can a person who rely solel on VWD/C# Express count on Silverline?

    - clickOnce Update not working hi, I created a clickonce application and installed it in the client machine. As expected a new shortcut is created in the Start->All Programs. However, when i publish the application again after making some changes, i expect that the newer version should run when i click on the shortcut, which does not happen in my case. Can some one tell me if i am doing anything wrong. (On the publish page "Application should Check for updates" is ON). (The application is a basic Winforms application) regards, irfan sheikh Tag: VB 2005 Serial Port Close() Method Tag: 129373

    - Workflow - CallExternalMethod -Correlation value is already intial Repeating calls to a CallExternalMethodActivity in a while loop - InvalidOperationException - Correlation value is already initialized I have a workflow that needs to call out to an external event until the event responds with a result of true. Unfortunately, the second time I call the external event, I get the error that the Correlation value is already initialized. I've implemented this with a while loop that has the condition that the result is true or an elapsed time of one hour has occured. The first activity in the loop is to call the external activity. The second is to delay for five minutes. Pretty simple. I've included the full error message the XOML and the code behind below. Has anyone run into this situation? Is there a way around it? Thanks in advance for any help.

    - why use .net? Hi there, We need to retrospectively justify our choice in using .NET framework for developing our site. Our techie isnt here so we cant run it past him. Can some kind, helpful person run their eye over it and tell me if I'm tellling porkies, or if there is anything I should add? Why should people choose .net (I think ours is 1.1) Thanks Gay ****************** We recognised that in order to meet our aims of producing a high quality and consistent website, we had to ensure that our system was fast, robust and able to deal with a high number of users. We chose .NET framework so that we could meet these needs now, but also so that we could best account for any future developments in a cost effective manner. This has proved the case, in that with our Stage 2 developments we will be implementing a forum system. Using .NET has meant that we can integrate new modules with ease. With .NET's cross-platform interconnectivity, we feel that we have chosen the best approach for future-proofing. Tag: VB 2005 Serial Port Close() Method Tag: 129346

Hey all,

I am having problems with the close method of the serial port class in
vb 2005. I have a button on a form that calls the Close() method, but
every now and then the program freezes. I have go into task manager to
end the process to get it to stop.

Just before I call the close() method, I discard the TX/RX buffers and
RemoveHandler my handles to DataReceived and ErrorReceived.

Any insight? Thanks,

I ended up writing in a timer to expire in 100ms after destroying the
handle and THEN close the port. It seems to work every time.

I think it is probably due to the handle to the DataReceived event.
