    - Should not be required to release managed resources A while ago I noticed an issue with .NET that just stung me yet again today. I had an object that I wanted to be garbage collected but it registered itself for several events of external objects which entails giving those objects a delegate that contains a reference to the event consuming object. The solution I have seen in Microsoft samples is to unregistered for the events in the Dispose method. Unfortunately, this creates a situation where manual memory management for these objects is a requirement. Dispose must be called or they will never be garbage collected. Garbage collection is supposed to eliminate much of the need for memory management, but it is not perfect and this is one of the cases where it fails miserably and quite often. I came up with a half-solution. I call it the WeakDelegate and it works well, but in order for its potential to be truly realized it would need framework level adoption. The concept is that it is a special kind of delegate that maintains a weak reference instead of a strong one. Then you simply unregistered for the events in a Dispose method and call the Dispose method from the finalizer. Worst case is that the overhead of a finalizer is called. Maybe in future versions of .NET, delegates defined as: delegate returnType DelegateName(parameterList); will really define an abstract class derived from Delegate (or MulticastDelegate or whatever) as well as two dirivatives of DelegateName being WeakDelegateName and StrongDelegateName. Generics may help. I would love to hear feedback, expecially from a Microsoft rep, with regards to this idea. Also, I dug up a prototype from my archives from when I was first learning C#: using System; using System.Reflection; using System.Collections; namespace BDB { /// <summary>Delegate that will not prevent garbage collection</summary> /// <remarks>Static Members not supported: /// Use instance wrapper methods if this functionality is required. /// /// Invoke method called on collected objects or missing methods will fail silently.</remarks> public class WeakDelegate { /// <summary>Construct a WeakDelegate</summary> /// <param name="d">"Strong" Delegate to copy from</param> public WeakDelegate(Delegate d) { referance = new WeakReference(d.Target); methodName = d.Method.Name; } /// <summary>Construct a WeakDelegate</summary> /// <param name="o">Object to invoke method on</param> /// <param name="m">Method to invoke</param> public WeakDelegate(object obj, string methodName) { this.referance = new System.WeakReference(obj); this.methodName = methodName; } /// <summary>Call the method referanced by this WeakDelegate</summary> /// <param name="args">Arguments to pass called method</param> /// <returns>Results of method call</returns> public object Invoke(object[] args) { MethodInfo m = referance.Target.GetType().GetMethod(methodName, BindingFlags.Instance|BindingFlags.Public|BindingFlags.NonPublic); return (m==null? null : m.Invoke(referance.Target, args)); } /// <summary>Determins if the object to invoke the method on is alive</summary> public bool IsAlive { get { return referance.IsAlive; } } /// <summary>Compare WeakDelegates for equality</summary> /// <param name="obj">Compare this to "obj"</param> /// <returns>True if WeakDelegates are equivialent</returns> public override bool Equals(object obj) { if(obj == null || GetType() != obj.GetType()) return false; WeakDelegate d = (WeakDelegate)obj; return ((this.referance.Target == d.referance.Target) && (this.methodName == d.methodName)); } /// <summary>Get the hash code of this WeakReferance</summary> /// <returns>Hash code</returns> public override int GetHashCode() { return methodName.GetHashCode() + referance.Target.GetHashCode(); } private string methodName; private WeakReference referance; } /// <summary>Multicast Delegate which does not prevent garbage collection</summary> public class WeakMulticastDelegate { /// <summary>Call all methods referanced by this WeakMulticastDelegate. /// Also removes any delegates that point to dead objects</summary> /// <param name="args">Arguments to pass all invoked methods</param> public void InvokeAll(object[] args) { WeakDelegate current; for(int i = 0; i < delegates.Count; i++) { current = delegates[i] as WeakDelegate; if(current.IsAlive) current.Invoke(args); else { delegates.RemoveAt(i); i--; } } } /// <summary>Add a WeakDelegate to the invokation list</summary> /// <param name="d">WeakDelegate to add</param> public void AddDelegate(WeakDelegate d) { delegates.Add(d); } /// <summary>Remove a WeakDelegate from the invokation list</summary> /// <param name="d">WeakDelegate to remove</param> public void RemoveDelegate(WeakDelegate d) { delegates.Remove(d); } private ArrayList delegates = new ArrayList(); } } Tag: Can you redirect framework with config file to an assembly?

    - Accessing Data Hi Friends, Is there a way to access data from a website that displays its data from a database. For example if i visit http://www.barnesandnoble.com, and if i search for a book on VB.Net, then i would like to access the results of this search programatically. I am trying to access data which is stored in their database. Now i can access this data by reading the webpage which contains the search result. OR If "Barnes And Noble" has created a Web Service, which provides me the access to their database. OR If i have direct access to their database. Are these the only options available to me, to access this data. Is there any other way i can get access to this data? I will be very thankful if you could please provide me any insight on this. Any help/guidance will be greatly appreciated. Thanks and Regards, Mohan Tag: Can you redirect framework with config file to an assembly? Tag: 65070

    - HttpWebRequest ReadToEnd and Timeout Problems... Heya, I've found while using HttpWebRequest that when the TCP and/or ActiveSync connection is interrupted (read: remove device from cradle or internet connection drops) the ReadToEnd operation hangs and the Timeout property on the HttpWebRequest does not appear to cause a timeout as one would expect. Do I need to create my own Timer to Abort the HttpWebRequest in case this occurs? Is there a better way to handle this? ~~K Tag: Can you redirect framework with config file to an assembly? Tag: 65066

    - Crystal Reports - with parms - .Export error Hey all, I am trying to try get a crytal report running properly. A "Hello World" report that does not add criteria to the record selection formula of the report (either in the development tool, or in the code) works fine. However, when I try to add any parameter through the record selection formula and/or the report parameters method, the report crashes. I have tried each of the methods: 1. Use the Record Selection Formula property: crReportDocument.DataDefinition.RecordSelectionFormula = "{qryTest.ID} = 54" 2. Use the Crystal Parameters collection(s) crParameterFieldDefinitions = crReportDocument.DataDefinition.ParameterFields crParameterFieldDefinition = crParameterFieldDefinitions.Item ("[@TestID]") crParameterValues = crParameterFieldDefinition.CurrentValues crParameterDiscreteValue = New CrystalDecisions.Shared.ParameterDiscreteValue() crParameterDiscreteValue.Value = 54 crParameterValues.Add(crParameterDiscreteValue) crParameterFieldDefinition.ApplyCurrentValues(crParameterValues) Both of the methods above work fine on my development machine but the testing server gives these errors. I also set the record selection formula in the report to automatically set the TestID parameter = 54 and then tested that report on the testing server and everything worked. So the issue seems to be with populating the crystal report's parameters at runtime. The error that comes back with a logon failure at the .Export line. I have tried two methods to logon to the reports: #################### Basic: With tliTableLogonInfo.ConnectionInfo .ServerName = m_strDSNName .DatabaseName = m_strDatabase .UserID = m_strUserId .Password = m_strPassword End With 'setup each connection in the report For Each tTable In crReportDocument.Database.Tables tTable.ApplyLogOnInfo(tliTableLogonInfo) Next tTable #################### and Complex (loops through sub-reports): Dim mySection As Section Dim mySections As Sections Dim myReportObject As ReportObject Dim myReportObjects As ReportObjects Dim mySubReportObject As SubreportObject Dim mySubRepDoc As New ReportDocument() 'Declare all of the sections of the main report mySections = crReportDocument.ReportDefinition.Sections 'Loop through the sections in the main report to find the subreport objects 'then set the logon information to the subreport Dim myLogin As CrystalDecisions.Shared.TableLogOnInfo For Each mySection In mySections myReportObjects = mySection.ReportObjects For Each myReportObject In myReportObjects If myReportObject.Kind = ReportObjectKind.SubreportObject Then 'Subreport Found - convert the report object to a sub report type mySubReportObject = CType(myReportObject, SubreportObject) 'Set the specific instance of this subreport mySubRepDoc = mySubReportObject.OpenSubreport (mySubReportObject.SubreportName) 'Set the login information for the current subreport(found) For Each crTable In mySubRepDoc.Database.Tables myLogin = crTable.LogOnInfo myLogin.ConnectionInfo.ServerName = m_strDSNName myLogin.ConnectionInfo.DatabaseName = m_strDatabase myLogin.ConnectionInfo.UserID = m_strUserId myLogin.ConnectionInfo.Password = m_strPassword crTable.ApplyLogOnInfo(myLogin) Next End If Next Next #################### Does anyone know of other methods to filter a report at runtime? Or is there a Crystal DLL that I need to move from my dev machine to the server to allow for the record selection properties to be set at runtime? OR ANY OTHER INFO WOULD BE GREAT!!!

    - just in time debugger is there a way to keep a C++ .exe built in .net 1.1 from bringing up the just in time debugger? i don't want this. during normal running, we want the application to just die on a crash. what happens is the just in time comes up on the server and it just sits there with the app in a hung state. we have another process running that if any .exe "disappears", it restarts it. when JIT comes up, it doesn't disappear and the server just sits there dead. of course we need to find what is causing this, but when running in production state, we need jit to be disabled. how can this be done? thanks.

    - Uninstalling a NT Service programmatically Hi NG, I'm writing a management tool for our software, that among other should be able to install and uninstall some of our NT services. The problem is that when I uninstall the services (using ManagedInstallerClass.InstallHelper with the "/u" parameter) the services are uninstalled, but they are still running until I close my management application. This is a problem since I want to remove the service assemblies as a part of the uninstallation. I read the Knowledge Base-article 287516 (http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;287516), which seems to be addressing my problem. It claims that all handles to the services needs to be closed before the service can be uninstalled. Thats fair enough, but eventhough all my ServiceControllers are Close()'d and Dispose()'d the problem persists. Is there a way to release all handles to a service allowing it to be uninstalled at once? Or is there another way to do this?

    - activex textbox vs windows forms textbox I'm porting an MS Access application to a .NET windows forms application. For several forms I need to use textboxes which support input masks and whose border color I can change, neither of which seem native to .NET. Is the addition of activex controls my only solution. So far, I've only found Microsoft's masked edit control (V6) which supports the input mask, but doesn't give me any control over the border color. Does anyone know if there are any better activex textboxes out there which fit the bill, or if there is a native dotnet solution that I'm missing and I could implement?

    - Is there an upward limit to the System.Timers.Timer.Interval value? I am using a timer in my Windows service previously discussed in my previous post to send warning e-mails to users who's account activity idle for a given number of days. Currently I have it set for 30 days, which I multiply by a base value for one day in milliseconds. The value that is currently being used is: 2592000000, which when divided by 24 * (60^2) * 1000 comes out to 30 days as it should. Can the timer not be used in this way? If it can't how does one accomplish this type of timing? Carlo Tag: Can you redirect framework with config file to an assembly? Tag: 64996

    - Process.Exited doesn't throw? I am writing a Windows Service that monitors a running instance of another (third-party) application by using the Process component. I set it up to listen for the Process.Exited event, but that event never seems to be raised. I tested further, using a .dll that runs in NUnit (just a handy place to test little hypotheses when I run into questions like this) and it still wouldn't recognize the closure, cancelling, killing or otherwise ending an application. I tried running on a different machine, and no dice. Is this a known issue? I'm responding to this event just as I would any other event. Is there something I missed? I'd rather not do a timer loop that constantly checks the state of the Process. Thanks for your help. -Marc Tag: Can you redirect framework with config file to an assembly? Tag: 64990

When the file is saved Class1.WeChanged is fired 2 times. Does anyone know why this would be? I understand that a rename or a move causes multiple events to be fired but don't know why LastWrite would get fired more than once. FileSystemWatcher fs = new FileSystemWatcher ( ); fs.Path = ".\\"; fs.Filter = "Test.dat"; fs.NotifyFilter = NotifyFilters.LastWrite; fs.Changed += new FileSystemEventHandler ( Class1.WeChanged ); fs.EnableRaisingEvents = true; Thank You Ken Tag: Can you redirect framework with config file to an assembly?

    - reading machine.config file I have a problem that involves many technologies - if anyone thinks there's a better group to post this to, don't yell and scream, just let me know. OK, our company is developing apps with VB.Net (using Remoting) and Crystal Reports. To solve the problem of creating multi-language reports, I wrote a UFL (User Function List) to do all the translating. I won't get into specifics, but this UFL is just an ActiveX dll written in VB6 (Crystal doesn't support writing them in .NET) that reads the translations from a SQL Server database. In addition, we have many apps and they use about 10 different databases. Since we're using remoting, the data access objects reside on our web server. All the info this data access object needs to connect to the databases is stored in the machine.config file of our web server (I know the machine.config is probably not the best .config file to store this info in - but that's where my boss says it has to be!) Finally, my problem. The Crystal reports are also running on the web server and I would like my ActiveX dll to be able to read the machine.config file for the SQL Server logon info (for it to get its translations) just like my .Net apps do. Obviously, I can't use the framework methods since the dll is written in VB6. What's the best way to find the location of the latest framework verion's machine.config file. I know I could write some hokey folder traversal method to try and find what version folder to look in. I may also be able to look in the registry, but I'm just looking for a cleaner solution. In conclusion, I'm looking for an easy and clean way to find the location of the latest version of the machine.config file without using the framework methods. Thanks in advance!

    - ShowHelp() and weird window behaviour Why is it that ShowHelp causes the Help file to show up as some sort of child to the main application? (I've tried this with MS help files and it does the same, it isn't my help file per-say) You can't click on the application without bring the help file to the front, you can't alt+Tab between the help file and the application etc. This is highly not a good thing. It should be a separate application for all intents and purposes. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks, James Hancock Tag: Can you redirect framework with config file to an assembly? Tag: 64975

    - QueryString and Web Forms Hello, I have a few web forms: 1) Shows a list of items with item ids 2) Shows details specific to an item and the sub-items of this item. What is the best way to pass the item id of the selected item from the 1st page to the 2nd? If I pass the value in the query string from the first 1st form to the 2nd, the 2nd form's URL will always contain that it in it since ASP.NET uses POST method and not a get method. So if on the 2nd form there is a way to pick a different item from a drop-down list, the URL will still contain the id of the orginally selected item, while the details will be shown for the item that was subsequently selected from the drop-down. This does not look right. Should I use the Session() to pass the item id of the selected item from the 1st to 2nd page instead of the QueryString method?

    - problem with shared assembly reference in VS solution I'm having a problem with shared assemblies > 2^16 bytes in size. My assembly is in a solution along with a console app that references the assembly. The app is set up to reference the assembly (the reference path is pointed to the assemblies output directory). When I do a build, the assembly is failing to build because the .dll is loaded. I'm getting the following output from the build: The file 'Test_Library.dll' cannot be copied to the run directory. The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process. Could not copy temporary files to the output directory. I've created a few other shared assemblies with no problems. This is the first time I've seen this exact problem and in trying to run it down I've discovered that if the .dll's size is < 65536 bytes (as all my other ones are), this doesn't happen. It looks like VS is loading the .dll when I add the reference for the console app. If I delete the console app's reference to the assembly, I am able to build the library. I hope one of you has run across this before. thanks for any help, Tim Tag: Can you redirect framework with config file to an assembly? Tag: 64956

Here's a catcher for all ya'll

I have a 3rd party .Net assembly which is compiled against .Net
framework 1.1 and is compatible with v1.0. However, there is not a
way to specify to use 1.0, unless I recompile it against v1.0

I have only .Net framework 1.0 installed.

I have an assembly that references the 3rd party .Net assembly.

I know from MSDN and other postings that a config file can be used
with only .exe and web apps to redirect/rebind which .Net framework to
use. This gets propogated down to the referenced assemblies too.

Is there a way to have my assembly (.dll) to do the exact same
behaviour? Utilize the .net framework v1.0 and propogate that down to
all the referenced assemblies? Including my 3rd party referenced
assembly which compiled against 1.1.

Upgrading to v1.1 Framework will not work becuase of the # of projects
using the v1.0 framework. If I upgrade then they all have to upgrade,
and then the servers have to be upgraded, test, and the list goes on
and on.

I heard of pilicy files in the GAC, but am not quite sure how signing
my assembly and putting that into the GAC will propogate down to any
of the referenced assemblies to use the v1.0 framework.

Any ideas?

Mike
