    - Communicating with a Windows Service I have written an application that runs as a Windows Service. I have also written a small windows forms application to send the service some custom startup parameters. The application is also able to connect to instances of the service on the local machine, as well as remote servers. I am having trouble deciding the best way to give the client app the ability to retrieve what the current parameters are for a running instance of the service. Actually I am having trouble even deciding where to start as there seem to be a number of possible ways. Any thoughts? Thanks for any help! Tag: transactions for file manipulations Tag: 78026

    - Working with Word docs, IE, and SQL Server 2000 Here's the scenario: A web app needs to include the ability open and edit Word templates within IE. This is being done through invoking Word in IE and loading the necessary Word templates into Word, within IE, in RTF format. Once edited, these docs need to be saved to local file structure AND uploaded as BLOBs into a SQL Server DB. At present this is being done as a 2 stage manual process Is there any way of automating the upload into the db directly from saving the docuements in Word if all of this is being done within IE?

    - How to retrieve Custom Attributes from the Type Hi! I have a problem: I've declared some classes and decorated them with my Custom Attributes. (say ClassA and ClassB) Now I have some Type member (in fact this is FieldInfo.FieldType) which is eq. typeof (ClassB). And when I call GetCustomAttributes() for this Type I never gets the attribute, that should be there. When I call GetType().GetCustonAttributes() everything works fine. Doeas object of the requested type for attributes must be instantiated ? Thanks for any help. Paul. ___ code for my example __ [MyAttribute()] public class ClassA { public int iVal; } [MyOtherAttribute()] public class ClassB { ClassA member ; void foo() { foreach (MyAttribute arre in GetType().GetField ("member").GetCustomAttributes (typeof(MyAttribute), true)) { // never enters here // this loop never finds MyAttribute of ClassA of field "member". } } } Tag: transactions for file manipulations Tag: 77998

    - mouseover event in axWebBrowser kills navigation I am hosting a web browser ctl in a container that implements the IDocHostUIHandler interface. I'm using this to control the context menu.This works fine. Then, I added a mouseover event to the document in the documentComplete event handler. When I add this event handler, I loose all other navigation functions in the browser! right click, left click, it's all dead. (The mouseover works though) Does anyone know ow do I get a mouseover working? Thanks. Mitch Below is the code for hooking up the event handler, followed by the event handler itself (using c# and .Net 1.1): private void axWebBrowser1_DocumentComplete(object sender, AxSHDocVw.DWebBrowserEvents2_DocumentCompleteEvent e) { mshtml.HTMLDocument doc = (mshtml.HTMLDocument)axWebBrowser1.Document; mshtml.HTMLDocumentEvents2_Event docEvents = (mshtml.HTMLDocumentEvents2_Event) doc; docEvents.onmouseover+=new HTMLDocumentEvents2_onmouseoverEventHandler(docEvents_onmouseover); } private void docEvents_onmouseover(IHTMLEventObj e) { if (e.srcElement.GetType() == typeof(mshtml.HTMLAnchorElementClass)) { mouseoverTextBox.Text = e.srcElement.GetType().ToString() + " " + e.srcElement.outerHTML; } e.cancelBubble = false; // I've tried all different values for these e.returnValue = false; } Tag: transactions for file manipulations Tag: 77990

    - Network communication samples please I'm building a Windows service and I need to make a monitoring application for users. Therefore I'll need to implement some form of communication between the program on the users' workstations and the service on its own machine. I'm afraid I'm completely out of my element here. One of the things I want to do is to make all communication handling in the service asynchronous, that is, I don't want "client chatter" to interfere with the core work that the service does. I was looking into the Socket class, and it appears that it's one of those things where you have to do EVERYTHING yourself. I mean, it doesn't even seem to raise an event when a client attempts to connect! Do you actually have to poll the monster regularly to see if there are pending connections? Does anyone know of a class (or articles dealing with one) that allows asynchronous processing (which disqualifies the TcpClient/Listener classes) and which will also let me write event-driven code?

    - "Expected type" error when trying to use imported assembly Hi Guys, I am getting an "expected type" error when trying to use an imported assembly. The following steps were followed from "CodeNotes for VB.NET": I opened a VB Class Library project in VS.NET and wrote a function that capitalizes the first character of a string. I built the project and copied the resulting dll file from the bin directory to a local directory. I then opened a Windows application, went to "Project" / "Add Reference", browsed to and selected my dll. At the top of the form where I wanted to use the function I keyed in an imports statement (when I finished typing the "s" in "imports" and hit the space bar I was able to select the class from the drop down menu). In a local sub on the form I tried to dimension an instance of the imported function: "dim myLocalSub as " and when I hit the space bar after typing the "s" in "as" I was again able to select the dll from a drop down menu however after pressing "enter" the dll name was underlined. The pop up message that appeared when I moved the insertion icon over the name in error was "expected type". This assembly is not shared - it is private. The imported assembly contains the "Public Class" and "End Class" statements with the function coding between. Can you tell me what I am missing? Thanks, John D.

    - Code Generation Hi, I am currently developing a C# code generator which works as follows. 1. A form is described using an XAML like XML grammar e.g: <Form Name="frmTest" Size="100,100" Location="10,20"> <TextBox Name="FirstName" Location = "25,25"/> ......... 2. A C# application parses the above configuration file and generates C# code for the layout of the form as well as it's child controls. Almost everything works fine except for a few things. 1. Control properties that represent a color (properties which are of type System.Drawing.Color) - these don't work well (right now I use a hack). My basic code loigic is that I read a given control node from the config file (e.g: <TextBox Name="FirstName" Location = "25,25"/>), process each attribute (which represents a propety of the object), and format the attribute value as per the type of the property. My question is - how can I generate the following code this.textBox1.BackColor = System.Drawing.Color.Blue; from the config file that has <TextBox Name="textBox1" BackColor="Blue"/> Also, how can I generate the following code this.textBox1.BackColor = System.Drawing.Color.FromArgb(10,10,10,10); from the config file that has <TextBox Name="textBox1" BackColor="10,10,10,10"/> Note the difference - one is named color and the other is not.

    - XHTML problematic, in xml used w/ .net I have an xml file (that is updated through infopath), which populates various .net controls. One of the elements in my xml file contains XHTML tags: And the xml text reader object that .NET provides, cannot read elements of an xml file that contain xhtml. The reader does not return the text, if it contains a <td> tag, or a <font> tag etc. Below is my pseudo code I use to get the contents of the element. XMLTextReader reader = newXMLTextReader(); lblDescription.Text = reader.ReadString() ; // the reader does not return anything if it contains xhtml Any ideas of what to do? I definately need that xhtml stuff in the xml file... Otherwise the label will contain just a big runon sentence, instead of formatted paragraphs.

    - how to know if File.Copy is finished Hello! I have some trouble opening .dwg files. First of all I copy them to a folder on a shared web server and then I use javascript to open AutoCad and try to open the files. It returns an "File not found" error. It works in my dev environment but not at my customer. I wonder if it could have something to do with the File.Copy method (they are large files and takes several seconds to be copied to the web-server). My question is: Does the File.Copy method return when the WHOLE file is copied, or could it be that the application run through the code to the part where it tries to start the AutoCad before all the files are actually finished copying? In that case, how could I stall the AutoCad-start until all files are in place? Hope you understand my question. /Miro Tag: transactions for file manipulations Tag: 77968

    - XmlSerialization of Exceptions I have a class which derives from ApplicationException. It extends the base class by adding a lot of environment information. Now, I am trying to serialize this using the XmlSerializer. This always throws an exception due to a security attribute on the Source, TargetSite and HelpLink properties of the base class. I have tried to hide these by creating my own property with the new keyword and this seems to work on my derived class. However, as soon as I pass an inner exception, it always blows up with the same problem since it will try to serialize the secured properties. So, it there a way I can tell the XmlSerializer not to look at certain properties in the innerException? Thanks Dirc Tag: transactions for file manipulations Tag: 77965

Administrator can sign the setup.exe so that client users can directly run this exe without having to log as administrators. 2. Administrator can create an install shield package and embed Admin User and password so that when a client user runs this setup.exe it internally logs in as an Administrator and installs the .net runtime...

    - Using regular expressions to parse INI file Folks, I was trying to parse standard Windows INI files using regular expressions, but I can't seem to get it to work all the way.... I have two tasks, basically: * retrieve all the section names (names between [....]) * given a section, retrieve all its key=value strings I can achieve goal no. 1 by having a regular expression of "\[(?<section>(.*))\].*". This seems to work okay - I can load the INI file into a string, and apply that regex to it, and iterating over all the .Matches and looking at the Match.Groups["section"].Value entries, I get my section names: StreamReader oSR = new StreamReader(<name of my INI file>); string strINIFile = oSR.ReadToEnd(); oSR.Close(); // grab all the section names by means of a regular expression MatchCollection oMatches = Regex.Matches(strINIFile, @"\[(?<section>(.*))\].*"); foreach(Match oMatch in oMatches) { string sConfSection = oMatch.Groups["section"].Value; // do something with sConfSection } However, I can't seem to get any regular expression working that would pick out all the key=value pairs for me, from a given section. I figured I'd just search for the "[section]" token, and then grab anything up to the next "[" character - but I can't seem to get that working..... Any ideas???

    - ReflectionTypeLoadException From GetTypes() Hi all, I could really use your help here. I am trying to create an instance of a class defined in one of my assemblies, from a method in the same assembly. The problem area of code looks something like this... Assembly runningAssembly = Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly(); Type[] assemblyTypes = runningAssembly.GetTypes(); // Now I have some types, find the one I'm looking for and use Activator.CreateInstance // to return an instance... Seems pretty straightforward really, doesn't it? Well, the GetTypes() call fails with a ReflectionTypeLoadException "One or more of the types in the assembly unable to load". I've done a fair bit of searching and on several occassions have seen the 'make sure all dependent assemblies are in the same directory or GAC', which is fair enough. As far as I am aware, all of this assemblies dependencies *are* in the same directory or the GAC. Having checked ILDASM manifest information for externs, it looks okay to me. I've also checked the Fusion log and that seems to be as expected also. The top of the stack trace looks something like this... at System.Reflection.Module.GetTypesInternal(StackCrawlMark& stackMark) at System.Reflection.Assembly.GetTypes() at ... [the calling line in my code] ... Are there any other places I should be looking for dependencies? I have noticed that some of the manifest version numbers do not match the actual version (manifest version always older) but I don't really know what to do about that, even if it is relevant. Are there any other cases in which this exception would be thrown? I'm stumped right now. If anybody can shed some light on this I would be really grateful. Thanks in advance. Antony.

    - Calling managed CSharp code from a C++ dll I have a dll written in C++ running along in my exe and would like to call an API from the dll into the managed code portion of my exe, which is written in C#. I know that you can call a function in the C++ dll by using the DllImport statement and declaring a P/Invoke compatible API signature for the managed portion to call into the unmanaged portion. But can you do the reverse? Essentially, what I want to do is have the C# section provide an particular function as a callback to the C++ dll so when it is ready to perform a certain task, it makes a call to the callback function provided in the C# section (which can be made into a dll). Is this possible? If so, can anyone give me suggestions on where to start? Thanks in advance, Justin Tag: transactions for file manipulations Tag: 77870

Hi All,

I was wondering the .NET framework supports transactions for I/O operations.
I am renaming, deleting, and moving multiple files and would like to
rollback the entire process if I encounter an exception.

Thanks

Nope. You can do things like these with COM+ (by writing your own dispensers
or compensators), but there's nothing built in.
