I am developing a project which has a web project as a part of it. Now to use it, i need to first install IIS. Is there any way, that my setup project will also install IIS if it does not already exist.
Also, can i create virtual directory in IIS from C# code ?
thanks

IIS is part of Windows media. So I would suggest instead of bundling those files, you can just detect and prompt for IIS to the user.
You can, however, create virtual directories from C# Code (using System.DirectoryServices)

Thanks a lot for your great help. I found the way to create virtual directory using C#. And this is quite cool. Thank you very much.
So you are suggesting not to bundle those IIS files in installer. Rather, give user a prompt to install IIS. Can you please tell me why ?
I just need to know, does it have any bad consequences ? Is there any chance of License Related Legal issues or copy right infringement ? Also, is there any other system related problems ? or any other ?
It will be a great help if you can please send some details.
Thanks

Because different versions off IIS require different versions of Windows. On top of that, you'll probably also have to install service packs and hot fixes, which you would also have to bundle with your installer.
Basically, you're taking on the responsibility of screwing up someones server when they install your app. Don't.
You simply have to tell the end users that IIS is a requirement to install and run your application. Let the user decide how best to handle the installation of IIS and any fixes, so it doesn't screw up the rest of their server.

Hi,
I have created an object for a class i have written.
How to delete this object? I dont want to wait for the garbage collector to run its algorithm neither call the GC explicitly.

Why do you want the object deleted?
If you are using some unmanaged resources that you need to release, implement the IDisposable interface.

search google for destructor
When you get mad...THINK twice that the only advice

But the destructor (or Finalizer as it is also called) won't run until the garbage collector does. And then when a destructor is in place it slows garbage collection down because it has additional code to run.

Are you just copying what ever looks the more convincing answer so far?

To re-emphasise what Guffa said. If you have unmanaged resources, or otherwise use objects that also implement IDisposable then you should implement IDisposable to free up or dispose of those resources. If those conditions are not met then let the garbage collector do its job - it is better at it than anyone else.

The reason for this explicit object release is in our application in we are creating n number of objects for a specific operation after that operation is finished we no longer require thise objects
We thought that the performance would be better if we explicitly release objects than waiting for the GC to do at later stages!
So the answer is ti implement IDisposable! thank you!

Depends. Do you have objects that already implement IDisposable to dispose of in the object, or do you manage any unmanaged resources in the object? If the answer is no to either then IDisposable won't do anything for you.
Remember, the Garbage Collector knows more about the system state and when it would be an opportune moment to garbage collect things than you do because it can constantly fine tune itself.

This is almost always a bad idea as it ultimately ends up slowing down your application.

I Totaly agree with you there, but since he needs (for some reason) to force the GarbageCollector to collect, this is the way.;)

What you want to do is unclear. Can you be more specific?
So you want to create an Outlook Add-in or want to open an Outlook window from your application?

Hi,friends!!..When I click a linkbutton it has to take me the new window..how can I do this?.I've checked with properties of a link button[Target=Self..like that].but its not working..

You can't do that. A linkbutton does a postback, and from server code you can't open a new window.
Just use a regular link with target="_blank".

Were you able to inject Attributes.Add and target _blank to LInkButton from CodeBehind?
