I've got a (3rd party, non fixable) application that isn't responding to Process.CloseMainWindow() What other options do I have to force it to shut down when the app that launched it is closing?
|

|

OK. I assume there's a way to interop out and get a list of all the processes on the machine so I can kill the other 3 processes associated with the app. They've all got constant names, and there can only be a single instance of each which should make things easier, or less difficult at anyrate.

If they have constant names then you can use the static method Process.GetProcessesByName which will return an array of processes (which match the name you specified) that you can then mercilessly kill.
You could also use GetProcesses if you prefer, get all the processes and then iterate through them to find all the ones you need to kill.
Just be aware that kill forces the process to stop and may result in abnormal termination. So be careful not to kill a process while it's doing something important (like writing to a file).

I've got a warning about dataloss advising the user to properly shut the app down on my end before doing the kill. Unfortunately I don't have any way to check if the problem app's doing any file IO or not.

Hey howzit,
at the moment i use the following code:
System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("mailto:test@test.com");
to launch the mail client, but I wanna specify which files to attach PROGRAMMICALLY. So for example my user is reading a PDF in my application and wants to send it to someone, it must attach the relevant PDF to a new email.
Aparently one needs to make API calls and stuff, can anyone help...keep it simple as possible please

hey greg,
thanks for the help, but that code doesn't work. I need to specify where on the hdd the file is and I can't even compile with that code, can you perhaps test it out on your machine and give me the entire piece of code, that would great.
Thanks a lot!

Hi
I have a problem with disabling a button.
When i need to disable a button then i do not want the DrawImageDisabled function to be called. Instead i just need it to be replaced with the image i provide. How can this be handled?
Please help me out in this.
Thanks and Regards
Madhu

Maybe, when the event is triggered to disable it, replace the image with the one you want, and then put an if() clause in the OnClick event to say if the image is X (or a bool you have attatched to it) then do this, otherwise break.
Regards

Create your own button control, inheriting from the original Button class. Override the drawing code and supply your own to draw the correct image you want.

As you guys know Dynamic Link Libraries created in visual studio .NET can be decrypted, oooh my goodness. How can it be encrypted?
Dotfuscator can do somethings, but when u encrypt your class with it,all the members of your class rename to letters and furthur useness would be horrible.
Thank you in advanced.

Someone told me that with .Net 2.0 its possible to compile to native code. But I don't know if he his correct. I didn't found a way to, yet.
So if anybody knows, I'm interested in, too.

No, it's not. Well, only if you're writing in unmanaged C++. Managed C++ compiles to a combination of native and managed code.
There are tools out there that will compile down to Native code, but they cost a bloody fortune to buy.
There is no way to encrypt the .DLL and still have it work, other than obfuscation. No matter what you do, the .DLL must be decrypted to use, even if it's done in memory. At that point, you're entire encryption scheme just defeated itself.

even in .Net 1.0 you can use NGen to compile a .Net dll to native code. This has to happen on the target machine however, since Ngen will optimize for the processor it finds, and installs the resulting image in the native image cache. Your installer script could Ngen normal dlls in a temporary location, then delete the uncompliled dlls...

But that, of course, means that the source MSIL files would have to be on the installation CD's too!  You could easily stop the installer from deleting the files just by modifying the permissions on the TEMP folders.

Well I found a software which allows to convert .Net projects to native code. It's called .Net Reactor[^]
I tried it. The code is encrypted afterwards. Reflector isn't able to disassemble it.

Specify a date format.
dateToPut=DateTime.ParseExact(tbDateToPut.Text, "dd/MM/yy", CultureInfo.GetCultureInfo("he-IL"));
Why don't you use 4-digit years?

I want to create a calander tool which will allow user to create a message on a date when you click it on calander and when the day appears, I want it to play a alarm and display message in a Message box with OK button on it.
I also would like a USer.ini config to be generated to save the information so its not lost when the application is exited. Finally I want the user to be able to set the application to it loads up when windows starts. How would you do this?
In the end we're all just the same

I am currently designing a Application in C#.net 2003 that will have a lot of features in it. It looks a bit like the desktop of Windows Blackcomb and it has many features of a mini- operating system.How would I:
1) How would you get a button to link to the Recycle bin? or My computer?
2) on the information part, I have written a properties tab. I have three text boxes. I want the first one: txtBx1 to show the amount of RAM that the application is using while running and TxtBx2 to show the amount of Free RAM and TxtBx3 to show how much Space the Application takes up on disk and the Location of where the application is stored like:
Finally I made a way to change the background on Main Screen (Like wallpaper on desktop)and I made a Calander which has settings to save imoprtant day notes. How would I generate a .ini config file so when the application is closed, you don't loose the settings?
Cheers if you can help me.
In the end we're all just the same

Not sure about the Recycle Bin - there is probably an API for it. You can access many of the special folders with System.Environment.GetFolderPath()[^]

You might consider a more robust naming convention otherwise it will become a nightmare to maintain.

.ini files? How very Windows 3.1 - You might better consider an XML file, for which there is plenty of documentation.
