    - Differences in .Resources files between Visual Studio 2005 beta1 a Our build system builds against the 1.1 .Net framework, but uses msbuild from Visual studio 2005. This allowed us to create ant style .csproj build scripts, which we couldn't do with Visual Studio 2003. All of this worked fine with Visual Studio 2005 beta1. When we were forced to upgrade, with no notice, our build system no longer worked. In beta 1 there was a tool called cfresgen.exe which has been removed and replaced with resgen.exe in beta2. The cfresgen allowed us to compile our .resx resources files and convert them to .resources files which could be used when building against the 1.1 framework. The new resgen tool which has superceded this will again allow us to do this compilation, however when the .resources files it generates are used within the 1.1 framework they fail. The exception is: Message : System.Reflection.TargetInvocationException : Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation. ----> System.NotSupportedException : This .resources file shouldn't be used with this reader. Your resource reader type: System.Resources.ResourceReader, mscorlib, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089 Stack-Trace : at System.Reflection.RuntimeConstructorInfo.InternalInvoke(BindingFlags invokeAttr, Binder binder, Object[] parameters, CultureInfo culture, Boolean isBinderDefault) at System.Reflection.RuntimeConstructorInfo.Invoke(BindingFlags invokeAttr, Binder binder, Object[] parameters, CultureInfo culture) at System.RuntimeType.CreateInstanceImpl(BindingFlags bindingAttr, Binder binder, Object[] args, CultureInfo culture, Object[] activationAttributes) at System.Activator.CreateInstance(Type type, BindingFlags bindingAttr, Binder binder, Object[] args, CultureInfo culture, Object[] activationAttributes) at System.Resources.ResourceManager.CreateResourceSet(Stream store) at System.Resources.ResourceManager.InternalGetResourceSet(CultureInfo culture, Boolean createIfNotExists, Boolean tryParents) at System.Resources.ResourceManager.InternalGetResourceSet(CultureInfo culture, Boolean createIfNotExists, Boolean tryParents) at System.Resources.ResourceManager.InternalGetResourceSet(CultureInfo culture, Boolean createIfNotExists, Boolean tryParents) at System.Resources.ResourceManager.GetString(String name, CultureInfo culture) at System.Resources.ResourceManager.GetString(String name) at Iona.Build.Utilities.DependencyParserTest.copyTemplate(String templateName) Tag: Smart Client requirements Tag: 99817

    - Landscape textbox Hello All. I am trying to create a textbox that can display text in landscape (font rotated 90 degrees anti clockwise, and text read from bottom to top, not left to right... ie portrait +---------+ |nnnn ::: | |::::: nn | +---------+ landscape +---------+ |.. c | |.. c | |.. | | .. | |c .. | |c .. | |c .. | |c .. | +---------+ nice. I tried overriding the onpaint event in an inherited control class, but the drawn text remains in portrait. Why, why, why? Am i barking up the wrong tree? Do i need to rewrite the internet? As you can probably tell, i don't know which direction i need to go..so all help will be greatly received. Cheers, James. Tag: Smart Client requirements Tag: 99816

    - Copying access objects using .net How do I program vb.net to copy a query or table from one MS Access database to another? I'd like to accomplish what import does when it copies Access objects (primarily queries but some tables) from another database into the database where the import action is selected---EXCEPT that I'd like to do this externally with a VB.net program. -- Thanks, Bob Tag: Smart Client requirements Tag: 99815

    - Urgent: How to NOT display " " in datagrid when NULL Hi everyone, Can someone show me how to display an empty string in a boundcolumn of a datagrid when the data source item is NULL. Datagrid by default displays the and that's BAD!!!!! I've tried the following in the ItemDataBound event but it gave me an "invalid cast" error: DataRowView dataRowView = (DataRowView)e.Item.DataItem; for (int i=0; i<e.Item.Cells.Count - 1; i++) { if (dataRowView[i].ToString().Trim() == System.DBNull.Value.ToString()) { e.Item.Cells[i].Text = ""; } } PS. It's a web form, not a windows form, if it makes any difference. Also, the datagrid rows (items) are NOT EditItem type rows. Any suggestion is greatly appreciated. I'm very desperate for an answer.

    - No line number at top level of Stack trace Hi, I have an error dialog which shows the stack trace, usually without line numbers in the release version. To try to diagnose a particular problem, I have provided a user with a debug version of my program, and now line numbers do appear. However, there is no line number at the top level in the stack, as shown below: System.IO.FileNotFoundException at MultiLang.modResXUtil.ExportToResx_AllStr_SelLang(ICollection SelectedLanguages) at MultiLang.ctlToolWindow.ContextMenuExportResources() in D:\MultiLang.NET\MultiLangVS2003\MultiLang\Controls\ctlToolWindow.vb:line 9452 at MultiLang.ctlToolWindow.ContextMenuResource(Object sender, EventArgs e) in D:\MultiLang.NET\MultiLangVS2003\MultiLang\Controls\ctlToolWindow.vb:line 9578 After adding debug messages, I am coming to the conclusion, that the program may not even be entering the function shown at the top level. What does it indicate, that there is no line number at the top level? Could it mean that an error occured in the Just-In-Time compiler, so that the function could not be called. Thanks in advance for any quick help. Apologies for posting to more than one newsgroup, but I am anxious to get quick help on this problem. Phil Tag: Smart Client requirements Tag: 99802

    - OT: Project management question Hi, I am a .NET developer and I have been approached by a person with an idea to make some software for a niche market. Now, the deal is that I do the programming for the project (my expertise) based on the other persons recommendations (they have intricate knowledge of the market area). Also, we will be using the other persons contacts and market knowledge to sell the software. Now, what is the usual way of doing things here in respect to payment/ keepings things fair? e.g. Who owns the software? If we sell the software who gets what percentage (50/50 split)? Who pays for development costs or do I just work for free since the other person will be using their contacts and knowledge to sell the software? Thanks in advance Mark Tag: Smart Client requirements Tag: 99801

    - Font .FromLogFont(), .ToLogFont() I see the signature of these methods: Font.FromLogFont(object o) Font.ToLogFont(object o) how does that work? my problem: I am porting a MacOSX application to Windows.... (yep, I succesfuly switched to windows ;-)(but not yet my boss). Anyway it's only a platform issue, the app produce file. These file could be share amongst different user with different PC/OS. And they contains styled text (text + font). Now I want to be able to have reasonably similar display on different computer, even though user 1 on PC1 use a font not available to user 2 on PC 2. I see there is CreateFontIndirect() just for that, but I have yet to figure out how to use it with .NET. Any tip? Tag: Smart Client requirements Tag: 99796

    - CAS issue accessing byte[] resource Hi, I have a CAS problem related to a serialized object in a satellite assembly. Specifically, I have an application with one EXE and two DLLs on my server. The EXE uses one of the DLLs, and that DLL uses the other DLL as a satellite assembly (which contains an embedded resource). It all works well on planet Earth, but when I try to launch the app. through a "Smart Client". [FYI I start the app from code on the client: string strURL = "http://localhost/SmartServer/Bin/Debug/Smart.exe"; // Set the class to call string sClassName = "MySmartClient.SmartForm"; Assembly assemblyContent = null; try { // Load the assembly assemblyContent = Assembly.LoadFrom(strURL); } catch(Exception e) { System.Windows.Forms.MessageBoÂx.Show("Exception: "+e.Message+" \r\n"+e.StackTrace); } splash.Close(); // Create a object for the Class Type typeContent = assemblyContent.GetType(sClassÂName); // Invoke the method. Here we are invoking the Main method. try { typeContent.InvokeMember ("Main", BindingFlags.Public | BindingFlags.InvokeMethod | BindingFlags.Static, null, null, null); } catch(Exception e) { System.Windows.Forms.MessageBoÂx.Show("Exception2: "+e.Message+" \r\n"+e.StackTrace); } ] This works fine when I give the localhost zone full-trust, but fails on low trust. I've narrowed the issue down to the resource in the satellite assembly; the main assembly needs to get a resource (byte array) from the assembly, which it does with ResourceManager rm = new ResourceManager(name, Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly(Â)); return (byte[])rm.GetObject(resourceOÂbjectName); This fails in low trust, because the code doesn't have permission to deserialize the type (even though it's a harmless byte array :(). I added the assembly to the GAC and it did work, but that's not an acceptable solution :[. This all seems to be in-line with http://www.thinktecture.com/Resources/RemotingFAQ/Changes2003.html, but I'm afraid I don't see how to apply that to this situation. I keep seeing samples posted as solutions with BinaryServerFormatterSinkProviÂder serverProv = new BinaryServerFormatterSinkProviÂder(); serverProv.TypeFilterLevel = System.Runtime.Serialization.FÂormatters.TypeFilterLevel.FullÂ; BinaryClientFormatterSinkProviÂder clientProv = new BinaryClientFormatterSinkProviÂder(); IDictionary props = new Hashtable(); props["port"] = 1234; HttpChannel chan = new HttpChannel(props, clientProv, serverProv); ChannelServices.RegisterChanneÂl( chan ); but what does it mean? What port am I supposed to provide (80?)? And where does this go, client or server? Can someone please help, preferably without configuration file changes. Thanks!

J'ai remarque que certaines machines plantaient les telechargements au dela de cinq downloads simultanees alors que d'autres non!!

    - True asynchronous HttpWebRequest implementation with abort and timeout Hi, I'm tired of seeing all these asynchronous HttpWebRequest implementations that still tend to use a seperate thread or they just block. A Question: 1) How do I implement a cancel method that aborts the request? HttpWebRequest.Abort() method does just that, but I don't see how the Cancel() method can get access to the RequestState, as request states are passed around in asynchronous object manner? Found at MSDN under the HttpWebRequest.BeginGetResponse() and modified it into a class: using System; using System.Text; using System.IO; using System.Net; using System.Web; using System.Threading; namespace Http { class RequestState { const int BUFFER_SIZE = 1024; public StringBuilder requestData; public byte[] _readbuf; public HttpWebRequest request; public HttpWebResponse response; public Stream streamResponse; public RequestState() { _readbuf = new byte[BUFFER_SIZE]; requestData = new StringBuilder(""); request = null; streamResponse = null; } } class HttpGet { public static ManualResetEvent allDone= new ManualResetEvent(false); const int BUFFER_SIZE = 1024; const int DefaultTimeout = 2 * 60 * 1000; // 2 minutes timeout private void TimeoutCallback(object state, bool timedOut) { if (timedOut) { HttpWebRequest request = state as HttpWebRequest; if (request != null) { request.Abort(); Console.WriteLine("Timeout!"); } } } private void RespCallback(IAsyncResult asynchronousResult) { try { // State of request is asynchronous. RequestState myRequestState=(RequestState) asynchronousResult.AsyncState; HttpWebRequest myHttpWebRequest=myRequestState.request; myRequestState.response = (HttpWebResponse) myHttpWebRequest.EndGetResponse(asynchronousResult); // Read the response into a Stream object.

IAsyncResult asynchronousInputRead = responseStream.BeginRead(myRequestState._readbuf, 0, BUFFER_SIZE, new AsyncCallback(ReadCallBack), myRequestState); return; } catch(WebException e) { Console.WriteLine("\nRespCallback Exception raised!"); Console.WriteLine("\nMessage:{0}",e.Message); Console.WriteLine("\nStatus:{0}",e.Status); } allDone.Set(); } private void ReadCallBack(IAsyncResult asyncResult) { try { RequestState myRequestState = (RequestState)asyncResult.AsyncState; Stream responseStream = myRequestState.streamResponse; int read = responseStream.EndRead( asyncResult ); // Read the HTML page and then print it to the console. if (read > 0) { myRequestState.requestData.Append(Encoding.GetEncoding(1252).GetString(myRequestState._readbuf, 0, read)); IAsyncResult asynchronousResult = responseStream.BeginRead( myRequestState._readbuf, 0, BUFFER_SIZE, new AsyncCallback(ReadCallBack), myRequestState); return; } else { Console.WriteLine("\nThe contents of the Html page are : "); if(myRequestState.requestData.Length>1) { string stringContent; stringContent = myRequestState.requestData.ToString(); Console.WriteLine(stringContent); } Console.WriteLine("Press any key to continue.........."); //Console.ReadLine(); responseStream.Close(); } } catch(WebException e) { Console.WriteLine("\nReadCallBack Exception raised!"); Console.WriteLine("\nMessage:{0}",e.Message); Console.WriteLine("\nStatus:{0}",e.Status); } allDone.Set(); } /* Needs to be implemented!

    - HttpWebRequest connecting to tivo webserver I am trying to write a little app that will parse my Tivo's Now Playing xml doc using ASP.NET (or winforms, i just want something to work at this point).

    - True asynchronous HttpWebRequest implementation with abort and timeout Hi, I'm tired of seeing all these asynchronous HttpWebRequest implementations that still tend to use a seperate thread or they just block. Two questions about the example below: 1) I wrapped the example below to a HttpGet class and fired Get (same as Main() below). It would still just block, until the response would be received. Commenting out the lines //allDone.WaitOne(); //myRequestState.response.Close(); made it work asynchronously, without blocking and without throwing an exception! hooray! But what am I giving away here? Is it ok to do that? 2) How do I implement an cancel method that aborts the request? HttpWebRequest.Abort() method does just that, but I don't see how the cancel method can get access to the RequestState, as it is passed around in async object manner?

    - How to control TCP/IP connections used with HttpWebRequest ? Hi All! After checking with packet sniffer that for every created HttpWebRequest / HttpWebResponse followed by Close() call my box creates new TCP/IP connection I just wonder if there is a way to use single long lasting TCP/IP connection with a given server for multiple HttpWebRequest / HttpWebResponse operations.

    - SerialPort and hardware flow control After some tests with a serial connection and the SerialPort class, I found out that in hardware flow control, you have to manually stop sending data when the CTS ligne goes low. I made some test and the SerialPort class doesn't seem to react to the CTS signal. If you tell to send 1000 bytes, it will send them no matter what the CTS level is. The only way I found to make all this works is by waiting for SerialPort.CtsHolding to become true and then send a single byte. And so on and so forth until the complete buffer is sent. I also found out that the Handshaking enumeration have a RequestToSend member but no "Hardware". So it really seems that the SerialPort class only handle automatically the RTS line and not the CTS line. Am I right or is there a way to tell the SerialPort class to handle the CTS signal, ie stop sending the bytes in the buffer momentarily until the CTS line is up?

    - .Resources differences between Visual Studio 2005 beta1 and beta2 Our build system builds against the 1.1 .Net framework, but uses msbuild from Visual studio 2005.

I have already posted same question to .compactframework thread, but nobody helped. main problem is that I have tried all the workarounds I have found in the Inet but nothing worked... I tried passing IntPtr, Byte Arrays, Serialisation, even used OpenNETCF, but all failed. I have even compiled own C dll (eVC 4.0) with same structures and functions, and there I can see what is passed in params and can return needed values. Result - the structure I pass to the function is empty and the structure I return from the function is not retrieved to outside (I have same structure that passed to function with no changes) any ideas? I need to do it on VB.NET for Compact Framework thanks in advance for any help.

    - OnStop timing out, service manager terminating process? I have a C# service that spawns multiple worker processes which it controls through remoting. The worker processes call 3rd party, unsafe components, which can and do bahave badly, and will eat memory and stall, or just hang on occasion. So now I've run into a problem where I want OnStop to attempt to shutdown the worker processes cleanly, wait for a short period and finally terminate the worker processes with Process.Kill if they don't respond. The problem seems to be that the service manager will stop the service, OnStop will execute for 30-60 seconds, and the service manager simply terminates the service process before it can kill the worker processes. When this happens, I end up with rogue worker processes that are consuming resources and difficult to kill. Is there any way to figure out how long I can wait? Is there any way to extend the shutdown time, by sending status to the service manager? I can't seem to find any documentation on how long OnStop is allowed to execute, and it seems to terminate the service process at varying times in my shutdown process.

    - Passing parameters to HandleException Hi All. I am testing Microsoft Enterprise Library - June 2005 Exception Handling, and I am trying to pass parameters to HandleException Method, and recieve it in my implementation of the abstract class. However, it seems that the HandleException can only implement: public abstract Exception HandleException( Exception exception, string policyName, Guid handlingInstanceId And that you can not add your own override implementation. Does some one knows if this doable and how ? What I tried to do is to implement the HandleException by adding more parameters after the GUID parameter. The problem is that it would not compile. Example void func(string strData) { try { ... } catch(Exception e) { ExceptionPolicy.HandleException(e,"DAL",strData); } } Tag: Smart Client requirements Tag: 99759

    - Threading question Ok, I'm trying to learn how to use threading, but I've run into a problem. I'm doing this in VB.Net. I started out making something pretty simple. Just a sort of wrapper for cmd.exe. I used separate threads to read from stdin and stderr. It seemed to be working ok. Then I added macros to it. Here's what's happening. The sub that runs the commands gets called several times in a row very quickly. It's spawns a new cmd.exe process each time, and a couple of threads to listen for the output. The problem is that the commands can take different amounts of time to finish, so the output I get is all out of order. I need to make sure that the commands run one at a time, each one waiting until the previous one is done. How exactly can I do that? Tag: Smart Client requirements Tag: 99742

What happens is that when a dataset is being merged an exception is being thrown which reads System.ArgumentOutOfRangeException: Load factor needs to be between 0.1 and 1 This hasn't been an issue until a day or so ago when we did our latest build. The dataset has not changed significantly recently, it does have a reasonable number of tables although we can get the issue when there is very little in the various tables. The problem seems to be worse under XP but not unique to it. Any suggestions? Cheers Brett Tag: Smart Client requirements Tag: 99741

"Please user an admin account when installing on XP SP1 Systems. Setup cannot proceed with non-admin accounts on XP SP1 systems. Refer to the product documentation for more information" When I tried to install june edition the following error was shown before any install window popped. I used the uninstall wizard and removed .net framework and again installed framework (tried with different version of 2.0 framework like *64,*86, IA64) "SQL Server 2005 CTP Setup has detected incompatible beta components from Visual Studio or SQL Server. You must run the build cleanup wizard from the CD to remove previous SQL Server 2005 components and .NET Framework components, and then run SQL Server 2005 CTP Setup again. For detailed instruction on uninstalling SQL Server builds, see the SQL Server 2005 CTP readme file" Can you please help me resolving this issue Thanks in advance Varadaraj R Tag: Smart Client requirements Tag: 99693

    - Dynamically Create Type By Version Our software is interface based meaning that we don't add any references to implemntation assemblies. All loading is done via Activator.CreateInstance(assembly, class name). Our components that we are instancing are loaded in the GAC. In preparing for a version change in our software we are wondering how we would be able to instance a particular version of a component. Say I know the class name and assembly, yet there is a version 1.0.0.0 and a version 2.0.0.0 and I specifically want to load version 1.0.0.0. What can I do to ensure this is the version that I get? There doesn't seem to be an overload for loading a particular version of a component via Activator. I thought I would create the type as well, but I can't fiure out how to specify version. Any thoughts? If there is a better newsgroup to post this question on, please let me know. Thanks, -- Brian R. Tag: Smart Client requirements Tag: 99682

    - how to generate XML documentation for a Managed C++ documentation (in VS.NET 2005) I have a fairly large (and auto generated ;-) Managed C++ project. Now I would like to output the documentation to save me the hassle of rading the sources (particularly when VS.NET collapse my auto generated file after about 15 seconds, while I'm in it, really frustrating..) Anyway I looked at all the project options, there is an XML document generator, but I didn't find any ON/OFF flags.... so, .. how do I do? Tag: Smart Client requirements Tag: 99681

    - AJAX with Microsoft .Net Framework 2.0 Release Would the AJAX be released as a part of .Net Framework 2.0 ? Tag: Smart Client requirements Tag: 99676

Can someone tell me if smart client development is bound to the compact
framework or is it possible to build smart client with the standard framework?

My understanding is that Smart client are for Online/Offline mode and can be
easily deployed (no-touch deployment). This is surely over simplified but
that's basically what I need to be able to do. Can it be done with a Windows
Forms as easily as with smart client?

Many thanks,

The definition varies by audience and what MS marketing was pushing at the
time the person first hear of Smart Clients.

I personally do not limit Smart Clients to only compact devices and have
just recently released a "Smart Client" that only works on the standard
framework.

For any document or proposals to management, you may want to quote directly
from Microsoft's "Smart Client Developer Center" at

http://msdn.microsoft.com/smartclient/understanding/definition/default.aspx

Hope this helps

Thanks Ed,

That is also what I understand from the technology. Smart Client is more
about the simple deployment and the offline capability then the compact
framework.
