    - Problem with transprancy and opacity When I give my form a white background, make the transparency key white, and have the opacity set to 100% (1) everything works fine. However, if I change the opacity to 50% (.5) the rather then have a form that is transparent where the white is I get a foggy white. Is there a fix for this, I want the form to be 50% opacity and the transparency to remain fully transparent. Thanks, Rob Tag: Target the Framework version from 2.0 to 1.1 Tag: 123135

    - vb.net not responding Thanks in advance for any help. I have a Windows form I have written in vb.net (2003 - Standard Ed.). It reads an xml file, populates a datagrid and updates back to the xml file when changes are mde on the datagrid such as additions or record modifications. I go to build with F5 and the hourglass pops up and doesn't go away even though the Windows Task Manager doesn't show "Not Responding". The build is listed as 1 Successful buildwith no erros. Any ideas on this one?

    - What framework is running in this scenario? I have a VB6 application that references a few .Net 1.1 components, and one 2.0 component. Does that mean that all will be running under 2.0? Is there any way to force the 1.1 pieces to run under 1.1, and the 2.0 to run under 2.0? I know about setting a config file to force a certain framework, but I think that is only good for the entire application. Thanks Tag: Target the Framework version from 2.0 to 1.1 Tag: 123124

    - ClickOnce Nightmares I'm trying to deploy a clickonce application using the command line (so that I can have it in a batch process). I have the following problems/questions. Please, if anyone can help, I'd appreciate it. I've managed to deploy the application using the instructions by microsoft, here: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/xc3tc5xx.aspx This is all peachy keen. Works fine except... 1 - There is no "setup.exe" file as occurs when deploying through the IDE. Why is this and can I get one? 2 - It cannot deploy over the network. Only locally (in other words, installing from \\mycomputer\public fails, but c:\public succeeds). 3 - When it is installed it doesn't give me an icon in the "Start\Programs" menu nor is it listed in the "Add/Remove Programs" when installed. I was wondering, somewhat, if it actually installed at all except that on install it runs (as it has been instructed to do) and the exe is installed in my user directory. Please help. What am I missing? If you have any questions feel free to ask. I need to get this out the door soon so I will be checking this post regularly. tia, rts.

    - HttpWebRequest ThreadPool usage - strange behaviour I posted this at dotnet.general a few days ago, but as far as there was no answer, I'll repost it here. I you think that there is even more appropriate group for this, please let me know, and I'll repost. Thanks. <Repost> Hi, I read a lot of articles about deadlocks and ThreadPool overloading when a lot of WebService or WebRequests are made from and ASP.NET applications. In most of these articles and examples there is a statement, that HttpWebRequest.GetResponse() call is always executed asyncronously in v. 1.x of the network. I used Reflector to examine this, and indeed, the code looks like: BeginGetRequest(...); ...... EndGetRequest(); Now, I created a test console application, which invokes a simple web service. This service only invokes Thread.Sleep for the number of seconds passed as parameter. Note - this is for .Net v.1.1 SP1. My test application starts 3 threads (not from the threadpool). The first one prints on console the current ThreadPool free threads. And the other 2 make invocation of the sample web service (not using a proxy, but pure GET request, using HttpWebRequest class), requesting delays of 10 and 20 seconds. Now, the strange thing is, that I do not see any thread of the ThreadPool used while waiting for the HttpResponse, I.e. this behaves very differently from what I read so far about how HttpRequests are made. I tried to invoke HttpWebRequest in 3 different ways (just comment and uncomment the corresponding 2 lines in the Main method): 1. A custom thread just invokes the synchronous GetResponse method - no threadpool usage is visible, even as per the articles I mentioned, it should translate in async invocation internally. 2. A threadpool thread invokes synchronous GetResponse - then obviously a threads from the pool are used, but only the ones, which make the call, but still not visible another threadpool thread which is used by the GetResponse. 3. A custom thread, which invokes async GetResponse (with BeginGetResponse/EndGetResponse), as well as async reading of the response stream. Still I can not see a threadpool thread to be used. Can somebody explain this behaviour? Why this sample works not like it should be? If all these articles are wrong, should I worry if I have a async web service, which internally invokes a 100-200 HttpRequests per invocation. I may have more than 300 invocations of that service in the same time? Actually, what I'm after is a web service, which will be used by more than 300 clients at the same time, which by itself retrieves 100-200 web pages per request. I want to speedup the process, and to use all available resources to fetch as many pages as possible at a time using threads. At the following URL you can find a zip with the source files I used. You need to set your IIS virtual directory to map to the test web service: http://216.17.90.93/ThreadTest.zip These are the articles I read on the topic: <http://msdn.microsoft.com/msdnmag/issues/04/12/NETMatters/> <http://www.deez.info/sengelha/blog/2005/03/03/beware-threadpools-and- httpwebrequest/> <http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en- us/dnservice/html/service07222003.asp> <http://msdn.microsoft.com/msdnmag/issues/03/06/Threading/> Cheers Sunny Tag: Target the Framework version from 2.0 to 1.1 Tag: 123119

    - Content-Type of MailMessage Why can't we change the content-type setting of a System.Net.Mail.MailMessage? We can change this value for Attachments, but not for the message itself... It's the only thing that prevents me from creating signed/encrypted messages... I can sign the message, add the smime.p7s but I can't change the message content type to multipart/signed... And adding the header doesn't help, the SmtpClient adding a Content-Type automatically... In fact, if the MailMessage would contain the same header properties (Content-xyz) as the Attachment, it would give a lot of flexibility... As for backward compatibility, not setting them would leave the default on, yes? In the meantime, I'll have to try another workaround: put the encrypted/signed message in an attachment...

    - How to get the domain name from a WinForm UserControl hosted in Internet Explorer I have developed a User Control (in .NET 2.0) that runs hosted inside Internet Explorer. like in these articles http://msdn.microsoft.com/msdnmag/issues/02/01/UserCtrl/ http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=892466 Is there an easy way to reference the HTML Document "parent" of this control and ask it for the domain? I could not find any way to reference the document that worked (ex Parent or Container property) Is there a way to ask the IEHost.dll that is hosting this control in IE? Is there a way through the security model to ask the Assembly if it has been loaded with restricted permissions and if so why? and somehow get to the domain it was pulled down from.... Any ideas?

    - Strange Performance Counter performance problem in Windows Service application Hello All, I experience a strange problem I do not how to approach. My windows service application uses several performance counter. Before when staring the service deletes category and attempts to recreate it. *If* the category previously existed and has been deleted prior to recreation an attempt to create a counter causes Service Manager timeout after 30 sec. So, category gets deleted, but it can not be recreated. I modified my service so it deletes category upon termination, but then it fails during the restart while checking if the category exists. It is completely weird. Now, the really strange part: the same code executed as a console application with *the same security credentials* executes momentarily. Sample code attached below. The code uses .Net 2.0 methods but the same issue can be seen in .Net 1.1. Did anyone experience a similar issue? Is there any known solution? Thank you, Tomasz Const ThisServiceName As String = "My Service" Trace.WriteLine("Checking performance counters category.") If PerformanceCounterCategory.Exists(ThisServiceName) Then Trace.WriteLine("Deleting performance counters.") PerformanceCounterCategory.Delete(ThisServiceName) Trace.WriteLine("Performance counters deleted.") End If WriteToLog("Creating performance counters.") PerformanceCounterCategory.Create(ThisServiceName, "", PerformanceCounterCategoryType.MultiInstance, "test counter", "") WriteToLog("Performance counters created.")

    - Exception profiling? I need to be able to see what exceptions are being raised by an ASP.NET application. I can see from perfmon that our ASP.NET app is throwing hundreds, if not thousands, of exceptions per second but very little is being logged. So what I'd like to do is run a profiler and see exactly what exceptions are being raised and where they are being raised. I've seen several profilers, but all seem to be just heap and/or memory profilers. I haven't found one that will show me exceptions. Does such a tool exist? I know that there is a Profiler API, but I'd rather not dive into writing my own for this one project. Thanks in advance! Tag: Target the Framework version from 2.0 to 1.1 Tag: 123111

    - Performance of Queue(of T).Enqueue(T) When calling Enqueue, the internal array may need to be reallocated. My question is by how much? In the old MFC array classes, you could tell MFC how many additional elements to add to the array when it needed to reallocate, which greatly boosted performance relative to adding 1 element at a time.

So my question to the gurus out there is 1. does any one really have any hands on experience saving documents to sql server 2000 and if so please tell me if u have any kind of performance issues with this. 2. i was told that sql server is kind of a little slow in streaming out the documents from the database, expecially bigger ones when compared to the retriving it from the web server's file system, is this true ? 3. please tell me any other problesm that u might have faced when saving\ retriving files from the database. 4. is sql server 2005 any better in saving and retriving documents from the database. thanks sameer Tag: Target the Framework version from 2.0 to 1.1 Tag: 123093

    - DataFormats.HTML with foreign character questions Hi, I recently have to process HTML clipboard format (both retrieval and posting) in C# and I have struck some problem when the HTML fragment contains foreign characters like Chinese or real UTF-8 sequence. When I examine the HTML clipboard data from Clipboard.GetData( DataFormats.Html ), the return type is System.String. For most part it is correct except in data between the  and  which should contain UTF-8 sequence. For some reason the return byte sequences are wrong at certain places. I then used the unmanaged code via C++/CLI to retrieve the same data and compared byte-for-byte with that returned from Clipboard.GetData() to see the real difference. They are indeed different. The one that I retrieve using Win32 API GetClipboardData() is the correct one while that from Clipboard.GetData() is corrupted. Does anyone know why Microsoft has chosen to use System.String for this rather than Byte[], which should be more appropriate? In the end, I wrote my own retrieval function in C++/CLI that returns a Byte[] to allow me to use Encoding.UTF8.GetString() to convert the fragment correctly. On posting using Clipboard.SetData(), I have also observed changes in certain byte sequences. So I am writing my own. Is there any logical explanation or has this been dealt with before. I am using .Net 2.0 Thanks. Leon Tag: Target the Framework version from 2.0 to 1.1 Tag: 123088

    - Why tampered Strong name assembly continue to work? Hi, I am always of the belief that once a strong name assembly is built, you cannot modify it without invoking the verification failure on loading. But the other day, a colleague of mine in the midst of getting something done with the managed Directx library, Microsoft.DirectX.dll version 9.12.589.0, accidentally tripped the time bomb as Microsoft no longer supporting this. He could not stop what he was doing and found with the help of Lutz Reflector the function Microsoft.DirectX.InternalHelper.CheckTimeBomb() and he changed the year using a binary editor from 2006 to 2518. He ran his application and did not receive any TimeBombException and obviously his hacked code works. But it begs the question how a strong name assembly could be hacked in this manner without tripping the verification check? I ran sn -vf on the command line for the Microsoft.DirectX.dll and it failed the verification. Here is the disassembled code of the function to show the change: .method public hidebysig static void CheckTimeBomb() cil managed { .maxstack 4 .locals ( [0] [mscorlib]System.DateTime time1) L_0000: ldloca.s time1 L_0002: ldc.i4 2518 L_0007: ldc.i4.s 10 L_0009: ldc.i4.5 L_000a: call instance void [mscorlib]System.DateTime::.ctor(int32, int32, int32) .... } Is this a security slip up? On a small demo I developed, any tampering of a strong name assembly would fail the verification. Any one has any idea why this works? Thanks.

    - Component in toolbox, appears and disappears... Hi all, I have a windows forms project, under which i've built several component classes, e.g. extended controls like combobox, textbox and so forth... For me to be able to drag and drop them on a form, i always need to perform the following actions : - On the Toolbox Panel, under Components tab, right click then "Add/Remove items" - Browse to my assembly... "projectname.exe" - Pick up the components listed, added after the browse, from the .Net Framework components tab - Get them added to the toolbox where i'm then able to perform my drag an drop action The problem (if any...) is, sometimes, the components after they get added, remain under the Toolbox panel for weeks and then disappear for unknown reason to me, so i need to perform the same operation described above everytime. So, could anybody explain why this is happening ? Is it because, when the component class gets modified, we must readd it again in the toolbox in order to have the latest version ? Is there any way to add the component so that it remains persistent in the toolbox pane, unless we do a remove explicitly ?

    - Desperately need help on Assembly Load Hi, I have written an application in which the main exe sits in, say <Dir1> This application will load using reflection Assembly.LoadFrom of an assembly, say Asm1 which sits inside another completely different directory <Dir2>. Within Asm1, I will then need to load another assembly Asm2 which also sits in <Dir2> But the problem is, everytime I try to do it within Asm2, by using Assembly.Load(assemblyName), but it always could not find it. A colleague of mine suggested using AppDomain, which I then try to create another separate AppDomain using the following command: AppDomain.CreateDomain("Somename", null, <Dir2>, <Dir2>, false); however it always returns an object of type System.Runtime.Remoting.Proxies.__TransparentProxy which when I used, it will always throw an Exception. Does anyone know how to overcome this problem? or suggest any other way?

    - Problem with environment variable expansion on command line (possible bug) There appears to be a bug in the way the .NET runtime expands environment variables surrounded by quotes when they are command line arguments used as inputs to an application. For example, create two environment variables... set Arg1=C:\SomePath\ set Arg2=C:\Temp\SomeFile.xml If this is passed to a simple .net application... PrintArgs.exe /a:%Arg1% /b:%Arg2% Note that the enviromment variables have no quotes surrounding them. The application is invoked with two separate arguments... /a:C:\SomePath\ /b:C:\Temp\SomeFile.xml In other words, the function Main(string[] args) gets invoked with args set to two strings. However, when the same application is invoked but the environment variables are surrounded by quotes.... PrintArgs.exe /a:"%Arg1%" /b:"%Arg2%" It receives a single command line argument: /a:C:\SomePath\" /b:C:\Temp\SomeFile.xml It strips the 1st quote mark off the 1st string but leaves the trailing quote mark. Both quote marks are stripped off the 2nd argument. It also gets the number of arguments wrong. Rather then identifying it as two separate arguments it considers both strings to be a single argument. I would consider the correct behavior to be that it should receive the same arguments in both cases. When the same arguments are passed to a batch file... PrintArgs.bat /a:"%Arg1%" /b:"%Arg2%" ...where PrintArgs.bat is a simple batch file that echoes the arguments passed to it. It receives two command line arguments: /a:"C:\SomePath\" /b:"C:\Temp\SomeFile.xml" Note that the quotes are still intact. The environment variables are expanded but the quotes are not removed. I ran all these on a machine using XP - the results may vary on different versions of the OS - using .net 2.0. So, is this is a bug or is this a misunderstanding on my part as to how it should behave? Thanks Tag: Target the Framework version from 2.0 to 1.1 Tag: 123012

    - HTTP 403.9 - Access Forbidden: Too many users are connected Hello, I am using IIS 5.1 on XP Pro. I have a page with many links on it (say 'Main Page'). Clicking on any of the links in Main Page, leads to say 'Page1. My Scenario (modified to make it simple): Click on 1st link of 'Main Page', opens page - page1. I press the browsers 'back' button and go back to 'Main Page'. Click on 2nd link of 'Main Page', opens page - page1 again. I press the browsers 'back' button and go back to 'Main Page'. Click on 3nd link of 'Main Page', opens page - page1 again. After doing this for a while, it gives me error : HTTP 403.9 - Access Forbidden: Too many users are connected Internet Information Services All the links has the code: Response.Redirect ("Page1.aspx", False) If I restart IIS, it starts working fine. Also, this happens mostly when I try to access the application from some other computer. Any suggestion, whats going wrong ? Why is the connection not getting closed ? Its seems to be a simple problem, but i have been pulling my hair for a while to get an answere. Any help appreciated !! Thanks !! Tag: Target the Framework version from 2.0 to 1.1 Tag: 122999

    - Dynamic Native Loadlib I understand that the means of explicitly linking against native code, is with an attribute set like this: [System.Runtime.InteropServices.DllImport("winmm.DLL", EntryPoint = "PlaySound", SetLastError = true)] But what if you want the name of the DLL to be dynamic - that is - specified with a variable rather than a string literal? The above code doesn't compile if I insert a variable in lieu of the string literal for the DLL name. Is there a way to do that (perhaps with a different FCL service)? If it can't be done, I suppose the reason would be that the compiler wants to collect in advance some type info from the named native DLL, so that it can construct proper marshalling code. But who knows... Tag: Target the Framework version from 2.0 to 1.1 Tag: 122989

    - Start and impersonate a console app from windows service Hi, I posted a question earlier asking about starting a process as a different user from windows service. I got some replies and read about this a bit more on the web but still couldn't get it working. The application I want to start is a console app and it also opens a win form which contains an axWebBrowser. There is no user interaction with the form. I've tried creating a Process and set the username, password and domain in the Process's StartInfo: Process p = new Process(); p.StartInfo.FileName = "somePathToThe.EXE"; p.StartInfo.Arguments = "some arguments"; p.StartInfo.UserName = "theUser@Domain"; p.StartInfo.Password = passwordInSecureString; p.StartInfo.UseShellExecute = false; p.Start(); I've also tried Pinvoke the CreateProcessWithLogonW Windows API call. I read about having to set the default desktop for console application so I did this: startupInfo.lpDesktop = @"winsta0\default"; These 2 methods both did not work. I got this message as soon as the process starts: The application failed to initialize properly (0xc0000142). Click on OK to terminate the application. If I start this application without the impersonate, it works perfectly. I won't see the console and win form showing up but I see the expected result when the app ends. Only when I add in the impersonate, I get the error message every time when the windows service tries to start my application. Also I have a console app which does the same thing as my win service. If I try the impersonation in the console mode, it works. Only when it runs from win services, it gives the error. Is there other way to do this? Or am I missing something in my code?? Thank you!!

    - Input/Display Masks C# Using Framework 2.0, is there a method for Masks to be used in C# web application? I found documentation on MaskedProviders but I canâ??t find any detailed examples of how itâ??s implemented. On top of that I think itâ??s just for client based win forms and not ASP. Basically, the user needs to be able to free type a date , phone, or whatever the case may be 1102006 and either on lost focus in the control I want to redisplay with mask or before saving to the database I want to mask it as 11/10/2006. I would hope that a mask property of some sort would help me here so I wouldnâ??t have to write a bunch of tedious string manipulation code.

    - FileSystemWatcher issue I'm developing a Windows Service which uses the FSW object to monitor some UNC paths, now I know after reading this article http://tinyurl.com/ykw7aq that FSW is quite unreliable when monitoring UNC paths so in my service I've also implemented a Timer that stops and restarts the FSW and checks for files that the FSW missed because it wasn't intercepting events. For testing purposes I've installed the service in my machine to monitor a local path and set the timer to be triggered every 10 minutes. I left the service running over night and this morning I checked the log file for the service and found that every once in a while (at random intervals) the FSW raise an exception: *System.IO.InternalBufferOverflowException* - Too many changes at once in directory:C:\Pippo The weird thing is that the directory hasn't been modified at all during night so why the buffer overflow excepion? The only thing I can think about is the reset of the FSW, maybe I do it wrong. To reset it I set the *EnableRaisingEvents* FSW property to false and then back to true. Is this the correct way? Or should I Dispose and recreate the object? Or there is some other method to reset the object? Thanks Tag: Target the Framework version from 2.0 to 1.1 Tag: 122956

Dear all,
I have encountered a problem of "DragDrop registration failed"
problem in my .NET 1.1 dll because of the assembly binding is always
going to .NET 2.0. Therefore I tried to specifiy the runtime version
and redirect those bindings in MyModule.dll.config.

The binded assemblies, however, are still in .NET 2.0, according to
both VS.NET 2003's output log and VS.NET 2005's fuslogvw. Meanwhile,
they also logged compiling and linking processes. At that stage, linked
assemblies are in version 1.1 correctly.

My question is, does it means that configurations of runtime version
and assembly binding redirection do not work backward from 2.0 to 1.1?

Thank you for your precious time.

Best Regards,
Mike

A single process can host only a single version of the CLR, so if the EXE
that launched the process is a 2.0 assembly (or isn't forced to run under
1.1), then the entire process will run under 2.0.

Oh, actually all my assemblies were compiled in 1.1 (VS.NET 2003);
however, since my develop environment also has 2.0 (VS.NET 2005), the
system usually load "system assemblies" in some of 2.0 (such as
System.Xml.dll) and some of 1.1 (such as System.Drawing).
