    - Button stuck disabled when running under VS Debugger Hello all, I'm experiencing a samewhat strange behaviour when running my Windows Forms app from withing Visual Studio 2008. The application is multithreaded and the workerthread fires an event that should enable a button in the GUI. I'm using BeginInvoke to call the method that enables the button on the GUI thread. The code is very straight forward: On the worker thread: [...] ffmpegProcess.WaitForExit(); if (GeneratorFinished != null) { GeneratorFinished(this, null); //event that triggers the button enabler } In the GUI Class: void generator_GeneratorFinished(object sender, EventArgs e) { if (this.InvokeRequired) { MethodInvoker invoker = new MethodInvoker(EnableStartButton); invoker.BeginInvoke(null, null); } else { EnableStartButton(); } } private void EnableStartButton() { btnStart.Enabled = true; } This works as expected when running the program outside of VS. However if I start the Program within VS (by hitting F5) the Button does change its appearance from disabled to enabled but does still not accept mouse input. The button works when I press the accelerator key (Alt+S). I can also tab to the button (it recieves focus) and press enter. However tabbing to it and pressing space doesn't work. Once the button got activated via tab+enter or the accelerator key it 'unsticks' and accepts mouse input again. It's not a big deal but a little annyoing and I'm curious if there's anything I can do to prevent it from happening? Thanks Ben Tag: Installation problem Tag: 116869

    - ClickOnce: Certificate cannot be validated Hi, We are signing our ClickOnce manifests with a code signing certificate purchased from Thawte. When we install the software a security warning is shown, and when we click on the publisher it says the certificate can not be validated. This is because the "Thawte Code Signing CA" is not present on the client machines. Having done a web search, I found a previous post in this group describing exactly the same issue - viewable at: http://groups.google.com/group/microsoft.public.dotnet.framework.windowsforms/browse_thread/thread/8c46df2acf25d54/4c1c4221f69fa09e From one reply from Linda Liu [MSFT]: >I searched in our inner database and found a similar issue in it. The >following is the comments: > >Firstly, this is a known issue that is being addressed in the next version >of Visual Studio - The Orcas. >Click Once apps do not distribute certificate/cert chains on the fly. So >for path validation to be recognized at install time - the installing >machine must have the intermediate certificate in this specific case. My investigations have not yet turned up any CAs that offer code signing certificates that directly chain from certificates we will find on our very vanilla customer machines - they all seem to use intermediate certs. (I'd love to be proved wrong on this...) My real question relates to the comment that this is being addressed in the Orcas release of Visual Studio. Is this true? If so, is there support in framework 3.5 that can be accessed via cClickOnce APIs? Thanks, Tony Tag: Installation problem Tag: 116861

    - Can I create a Windows Explorer Icon type object in .NET I am trying to create a Windows Explorer icon type object in .NET that will display an icon image and have a label that works like the label on an icon in Windows Explorer; maximum two-line display that expands to full-size when selected and is editable. I would also like to be able to have it contained on a Form and be able to reposition it by changing a "Location" property. I have experimented with PictureBox and Panel box objects without any success. Is there such an object available in .NET (or natively)? The editable label is especially interesting. For now I have implemented a static display use the various Graphic class methods; DrawImage and DrawString but they really do not replace the advantage of having a true icon type object that I could click and manipulate.

    - TableNewRow event handling issue Greetings, Using VS 2005 SP1; I created a simple form by dragging and dropping a data table. I changed it to a details view, so I have a mixture of text boxes, combo boxes and a check box (no dgv). I want to programatically populate the controls when the user clicks on the Add New button, so I added the following event handler: void MyDataTable_TableNewRow(object sender, DataTableNewRowEventArgs e) { int nIndex = int.Parse(this.bindingNavigatorPositionItem.Text); e.Row.BeginEdit(); e.Row["Col0"] = this.myDataSet.MyDataTable.Rows[nIndex].ItemArray[0].ToString(); e.Row["Col1"] = this.myDataSet.MyDataTable.Rows[nIndex].ItemArray[1].ToString(); e.Row["Col2"] = this.myDataSet.MyDataTable.Rows[nIndex].ItemArray[2].ToString(); ...etc... e.Row.EndEdit(); } This works surprisingly well; the user can select any row and use it as a template for the new row. I tried to take this a step further; instead of setting the columns individually, I tried to use the CopyTo function as follows: void MyDataTable_TableNewRow(object sender, DataTableNewRowEventArgs e) { int nIndex = int.Parse(this.bindingNavigatorPositionItem.Text); e.Row.BeginEdit(); this.myDataSet.MyDataTable.Rows[nIndex].ItemArray.CopyTo(e.Row.ItemArray, 0); e.Row.EndEdit(); } The code seems to execute, but all my controls are blank, like the CopyTo did nothing; what am I missing here? Shouldn't this work? -- Regards, Bob Tag: Installation problem Tag: 116843

    - Slow app response Hi I have replaced an ms access app with its vb.net version at a client site. Now the clients keeps complaining about how slow the app response is. The complains they have are for example when app is minimised and then trying to maximise it after a while takes a while for app to get maximised. Also form painting of controls is slow and app is generally slow in terms of response to user clicks. I am using Infragistics controls and my feeling is that makes the app bit sluggish compared to the original controls shipped with vs 2008 but I need the Infragistics controls for their features. I have also ngen'd the app but surprisingly only the main app executable gets ngen'd and not any of the dependency dlls such as Infragistics dlls. Are there any tips to make app response better for user? Thanks Regards Tag: Installation problem Tag: 116822

    - Converting a DataColumn's Datatype on the fly Hi everyone, I have one dataset that gets built dynamically from XML, I parse a large soap message and extract the schema from XML( I am working in .NET 1.0, sorry for the pain). anyway, by default the dataset resutling from this process has a data type of string for all columns. My question is : Is there a way to convert the datatype of columns from String to Double, or to any other format, on the fly? I know for a fact that all values in that datacolumn are all doubles. One thing I am doing is creating a new column with a datatype of double, and then looping through all existing row in the string column and then converting them, but this is a nightmare as the size of the table grows.

    - RichEdit control not processing Return character I have a control inheriting from RichEdit. All is well except that it is not processing carriage returns. Meaning, when you hit Return, you will not get a new line. The previous developer overrode the WndProc, and intercepted the return character message, doing some fancy selection coding to insert a CRLF, but that's causing some other problems with the formatting. My question is, why won't the control handle the return message as I expect it to? The Multiline property is set to true. Normal, vanilla RichEdits added to a form handle the message properly, so the prev. developer must have set some property that's blocking the normal CRLF functionality. Does anyone know what that might be? Thanks, Pete Tag: Installation problem Tag: 116755

    - None GUI thread (common problem) After two years of developement, we start to realize that there is a threading problem in our application. The cardinal rule - "you should not interact with a control's properties from a thread other than the one that created the control" - has been broken a couple of times, and we're having trouble with application hang. Now there are a few places in our code that need to be examined to get rid of the problem. But there seems to be at least two things, out of our control, that can cause the same problem. First, we use a third party library of GUI components from DevExpress, and according to their knowledge base, there is a problem with the XtraForm which all our forms inherit. And second, there seems to be a problem in the .NET Framework 2.0 according to this article: http://ikriv.com:8765/en/prog/info/dotnet/MysteriousHang.html As there are potentially three sources to the hang problem, and the hangs seem to appear only infrequently, it's extreemly difficult to know for certain if the changes we make to our code make it 100% safe. Because of that I need to get the best possible resource on how this problem should be solved (or how to program GUI using multiple threads in the first place). 1. Is there some good article on this topic at MSDN, or maybe MSDN Magazine? 2. I also want to know if there is a way to get rid of the problem in .NET 2.0 Framework, described in the MysteriousHang article. Will there be a patch for .NET 2.0 Framework, or has the problem been solved in .NET 3.5 Framework? Tag: Installation problem Tag: 116754

    - DPI issues Are there any suggestions for developing large windows form applications (1000+ forms some with 30-50 controls on the form) in .NET 2.0 that scale properly in 96DPI and 120DPI. Microsoft ISV is discussing to switch to WPF but am curious on others have handled this. We are seeing labels show up incorrectly, headers in Data grids, or other images shown incorrectly. With all the new laptops today coming in high resolutions for their native resolution and 120 DPI it is getting harder to support just 96DPI. If there are any suggestions or Must Do's like putting controls on panels, or group boxes that seem to always fix this please advise. -- Thanks, Jeff Tag: Installation problem Tag: 116723

    - custom control size I have a custom control that draws a special grid. The size of the control should be computed based on the number of rows and columns (plus some padding). Right now I set the Width and Height of the control manually in OnPaint() (based on the number of rows/columns). This is working, but I am just wondering if this is the recommended way.

    - How to modify HScrollBar I want to do a control like this: http://img216.imageshack.us/img216/1629/ctrlib6.jpg The HScrollBar class almost does this. However, instead of rendering the scroll "knob", I'd like to draw text to show the position (e.g., in the image, it draws 13/16). Any tips on how to do this? Tag: Installation problem Tag: 116721

    - How to read sequentially from a random point in a large Xml File. Hello Have a huge XML file with multitudes of "LogEntry" nodes / text lines. A small sample of this xml/text content is below. The file could be anywhere between 200 to 2000 MB. My questions comes in two parts. (A) I would like a solution (or ideas for it), in C#, -- to randomly access a really huge xml file, and to sequentially read only the "memory permiting" number of nodes into memory, from a place randomly selected in the huge file. The application otherwise returns an out of memory error or gets very slow, if i try to load the entire file, because the user like to "scroll" through the file, viewing different parts. Like when scrolling through a huge Word document. How is this (best) done? (B) What is, and/or how would i estimate, the max amount of xml or text from the file that the application can have in it's memory? The application is both a web applicatin and a windows standalone. On a 32bit machine with 2GB Ram, the virual memory is 2GB, which gives an answer. But i have a Java app that goes in a unhandled heap error already when loading xml from a 200MB size file. Any ideas, solutions, or links concerning the above (especially (A))? One avenue is to try to base a sequential reader on a random access stream. I tried this idea. I based the XmlTextReader (for seqeuntial read) on the FileStream (for randon access), but this didnt work. There is some test code at the bottom of this email that shows some of this. I used the FileStream for random access via the FileStream.Seek(..) method. But the XmlTextReader.Read() didn't start reading from the new position. The following: FileStream.Seek(<Random NewPosition>, SeekOrigin.Begin); FileStream.Read(); would read from a the new position, but it didnt effect the positioning of XmlTextReader.Read(). Even though XmlTextReader is based on the same FileStream. It caused though the last read of the XmlTextReader to validate the xml erroneously (when the xml was actually ok). An alternative is to base a StreamReader on a FileStream. The StreamReader.BaseStream is available for random access, and the StreamReader is there for sequential read. But i think the same problem is there, as when basing the XmlTextReader on the FileStream. As a side thought to the problem, - it could be more easily solved if MicroSoft offered an indexing mechanism (for application purposes) on NTSF files. But this isn't the case. Or if i could load the huge file into a database table, but the requirement is only to use xml files (or flat files), so this isn't an option. This question involves several "technologies". So i am posting it on several newsgroups. Here's a sample of the XML: Each "LogEntry" node is viewed as line of text in a GridView controller. <Logs AtrA="AllTheLogs"> <Log AtrA="log1" AtrB="Machine nr 1"> <LogEntry AtrA="name1" AtrB="time" AtrC="location" /> <LogEntry AtrA="name2" AtrB="time" AtrC="location" /> <LogEntry AtrA="name3" AtrB="time" AtrC="location" /> <LogEntry AtrA="name4" AtrB="time" AtrC="location" /> </Log> <Log AtrA="log2" AtrB="Machine nr 1"> <LogEntry AtrA="name5" AtrB="time" AtrC="location" /> <LogEntry AtrA="name6" AtrB="time" AtrC="location" /> </Log> </Logs> Some test code using XmlTextReader(FileStream) based on a file with the above xml. I used the VS debugger to look into the variables. System.IO.FileStream fs = null; int i = 0; long[] bookMarks = new long[4000]; String[] linesOfText = new String[4000]; byte[] aBuffer = new byte[1000]; char[] charBuffer = new char[1000]; try { fs = new FileStream("c:\\aXMLfile.xml", FileMode.OpenOrCreate); System.Xml.XmlTextReader reader = new XmlTextReader(fs); long lngthOfFS = fs.Length; Boolean a = false; while (reader.Read()) { bookMarks[i] = fs.Position; StreamReader sr = new StreamReader(fs); if (i == 2) { fs.Read(aBuffer, 0, aBuffer.Length); fs.Position = 0; fs.Read(aBuffer, 0, aBuffer.Length); for (int g = 0; g < aBuffer.Length; g++) { charBuffer[g] = (char)aBuffer[g]; } } linesOfText[i] = "Attribute count: " + reader.AttributeCount + ", NodeType: " + reader.NodeType + ", Name: " + reader.Name + ", value: " + reader.Value; a = reader.HasAttributes; if (reader.HasAttributes) { for (int ii = 0; ii < reader.AttributeCount; ii ++) { reader.MoveToAttribute(ii); linesOfText[i] = linesOfText[i] + "Attribute " + ii.ToString() + ":" + ", Name: " + reader.Name + ", value: " + reader.Value; } } i++; } } catch(Exception e) { String message = e.ToString(); } finally { fs.Unlock(0, fs.Length); } Other references: Efficient Techniques for Modifying Large XML Files http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa302289.aspx XML Reader with Bookmarks http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa302292.aspx The Best of Both Worlds: Combining XPath with the XmlReader http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms950778.aspx Comments to references: Helena Kupkova developed a XmlBookmarkReader class (based on XmlReader). But when XmlBookmarkReader sets a bookmark on a read node, it caches it and the following node, to be able to "replay" the bookmark when it is needed. On huge files, an early bookmark will cache the xml content of the file until the applicaiton runs out of memory. Dare Obasanjo XPathReader doesnt avoid a sequential read of the file, testing for each read, for a match for one or more xpaths. For a new XPath, the code would have to seqential reading from the start of the file. -- Regards, Paul Tag: Installation problem Tag: 116720

    - HResult E_Fail Error I am just learning WPF and created a window and added a stack panel to it ( I am using the book: Pro WPF with VB 2008 (.Net 3.5) by MacDonald - in case anyone else is using this book). I added a label and a few buttons to the stack panel, experimented with a few property settings, and suddenly experienced this error when trying to add an additional button to the stack panel: HRESULT E_Fail has been returned from a call to a COM component. I am using VS Studio 2008. After this error, no control can be added -- the cursor has changed to a circle with a backslash. Recompiling the project would let me select a control from the toolbox but dropping it on the stack panel created the same error. I deleted the form and recreated it without any problems. I shut down VS2008 and got this error: VS 2008 has experienced a problem and needs to shut down . . . My first question is COM component? What does VS 2008 have do with COM? Secondly, what is this error and how can I prevent it instead of wondering when it will pop up again? WR Tag: Installation problem Tag: 116719

    - Is there a Multi Control DataGrid? I'm using VS 2008. In another language (Delphi) I have used in the past, there was a datagrid where you could place multiple contols inside each row (labels, textboxes buttons) and show multiple data in a row on a datagrid. Does Visual Studio have such a control? jwc *** Sent via Developersdex http://www.developersdex.com *** Tag: Installation problem Tag: 116718

Hi people
I am having problems with DotNet. I accidently deleted .net 2 sp1 from my
machine, and I need to re-install. I have searched the MS site for
information, and have followed the advice I found. My problem is a round
robin thing whereby I can not install .Net 2 because my machine insists that
it is incompatible. I have done all I can from the information I have from MS
KBs. I have .net 1.1 installed, .net 2 refuses to re-install as does .net 2
sp1.

I need a foolproof (!) way of uninstalling and re-installing this software.
(Even MS Update fials to install). Help?!
