Compiling DLL with Embeded XML

Fred Fournier10-Aug-07 7:25

I've got a kind of hard problem that's pretty hard to explain and to look for. So here it goes (code is in C#)

I've compiled a Dll, in which there are custom classes with properties, methods etc... I know how to generate XML comments with the three "/". But the summary will only be visible when I scroll on the class, property or method when I'm INSIDE my DLL source file. When I compile it, and add the Dll reference to another project, I'm not able so see these Comments in the other project, so I just see the Class name but no description. I've tried to add the XML file to the new project, but I know it won't work because VS sees the XML as a file to compile with the new project.

So I just need to know how to embed my XML in my DLL when I build my solution.

Thanks!

Hi,

AFAIK this is how it works:
- in the DLL project's property page, you check some checkbox to order the XML file
generation; the next build results in a DLL file, an XML file (and possibly a PDB file).
- in the other project (say a Win app), you have set a reference to that dll;
it will copy both the DLL file and the XML file if one exists. Based on that copied XML file
the EXE project will show Intellisense information that includes what got stored in that
XML file.

remark: at least one version of VS C# contains a bug in that it does not show Intellisense
on properties (it does on members and methods).

So there is no need to explicitly add the XML file to the other project; it is all
automatic.

Hope this helps.

Ok well I get it... This is the initial way I though it was done. Maybe the little bug you were talking about made me think I was doing something wrong... Be I guess that I musn't specify anything in the "XML Document" textbox (next to the check box) since it might change the XML filename. Anyways, do you know any workarounds this little bug?

Cheers!
Fred

No work-around has been discovered for the VS version that failed to
show property comments. I guess it was VS 2003 C#; seems like VS 2005 C#
does not have such bug.

Got back to work today! And it worked, it just seems that the "new" solution needs to be restarted and everything works fine. Another person here encountered the same problem with VB 2005 and reloaded his solution and it worked also... Thanks for the Help!

Many apps, like Flash, Adobe, and Internet Explorer, actually expose themselves as COM objects that can be embedded into your form naturally like a normal .NET control. What application do you want to host in your form?

Also, what doesn't work about that article? Are you getting an error?

I presume you want help with this and I did suggest a place that was more likely to get you an answer than this forum, but I see you didn't aske there. Is there any reason you ignored my advice? I try and help out where I can, but if people actively ignore my advice then what is the point?

And since it is obvious that you've ignored it (or at least not acted upon it), I'm left wondering "why?"

Did you find an alternative solution to your problem? You decided to try something completely different? What? Was there some other problem with the advice I gave?

xml serialization

brsecu10-Aug-07 5:06

I gotten to the point where i can serialize an xml document using a class.

I just cant figure out how to get a complex type to serialize.

How should my class look if i need something like

<Family>
<Mother>
<Name>
<First>Mary</First>
<Last>Cummings</Last>
</Name>
</Mother>
</Family>

Re: xml serialization

Judah Gabriel Himango10-Aug-07 5:17

I think you'd need several classes for that:

class Family
{
   public Mother Mother;
}

class Mother
{
    public Name Name;
}

class Name
{
   public string First = "Mary";
   public string Last = "Cummings";
}

If you serialized the Family class, it would result in something like your XML document.

Of course, you'll probably want to use properties instead of public fields.

Building through XSD, yes it does. From straight XML there's no way to specify inheritance. Or were you asking about Pseudo code?

Hi!
I'm usimg bindingsource filter property to sort out the data I need..
I know that this property supports sql wildcard '%' as a substitution for a array of chars.
is there a wildcard that substitutes only one char??

ex. i've got this list
aaazzz11
aaazzz12
aazzzf13

and i want only those items where three letters counting from fourth are 'z' ie aaazzz11 and aaazzz12
now in sql I'd write "like '___zzz%' "
but '_' doesn't work in bs..

thanks for any help!!

internal protected is a superset of internal and protected. Was this your understanding?

These are access specifiers,
If we use "protected" before a method/variable, it can be accessed only to derived class.
If we use "internal" before a method/variable, it can be access only within the same assembly.
So, internal protected can be accessed within the same assembly as well as in derived class.
Hope this served your purpose.;P

Communicate between windows and linux box

Hi,
I have two different services; those are running under windows box and Linux box. Both Windows and Linux services had been developed by .NET by the help of respective SDK’s. Both business service systems are running fine based on its scope. But now, I wanted to implement a communication channel or some mechanism, which will help these different services to share objects/data. Apart from that, I am not allowed to use web interfaces to facilitate the communication since both windows and Linux machines resides in same intranet.

Is it possible to communicate between two distinct OS environment using .NET remoting?
If so, what could be the fine tuned way to achieve the same?
What are the other possible thoughts to implement the same apart from remoting and web service?

Any thoughts / url/ sample application will be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.
