Hello everyone,

Im wondering if its possible to make my control behave in the way described below:

during editing text when user types enter normally cursor moves to the next line creating new emtpy line and then user can keep on writing. I would like to make it possible to move to another line by typeing enter only when the current line contains 10 characters.
Hope taht my description of the problem is clear,

thanks for any hint,

Witek

Use the KeyDown event, inside check if the Return key was pressed. If it was then you can check how many characters are in the current line. If there are not enough characters in the line then set e.Handled to true to ignore key.

C# reflection?

Hi,

I have a class as under:

public class ExampleClass : BaseClass

{

        public int ExampleMethod(int _toValidate)  {

              ExampleValidator(_toValidate);

               return 1;

 }

}

The ExampleValidator method is contained in the BaseClass. It is used to validate the parameter _toValidate. The ExampleValidator check is very important and every method in the class ExampleClass should contain it. I want to create a unit test for this class ExampleClass, to test if every method does contain the ExampleValidator. How can I do that?

Can reflection help me?

Regards,
ap.

I think you are missing the point of unit testing.

A unit test should run a piece of code and check that the output/result is as expected. A unit test does not examine code to check the semantics.

What you should do is write several unit tests that run the ExampleMethod with different parameters and checked the results were correct. You would also write several unit tests that run the ExampleMethod with invalid parameters and check that the method failed in the correct way.

What you are asking about doing is called "static analysis". MS have a tool called FxCop[^] which does static analysis. (Or if you have Vs2005/08 team versions, they have "code analysis" built in, which is basically the same as FxCop).

If you google there are several tutorials for writing your own custom rules for FxCop. (see here[^])

There are plenty of other static analysis tools[^] if you want to try a few out. There is also DevPartner[^] from Compuware, which I've used in the past and you can add custom rules to.

None of the BinaryWriter constructs support new BinaryReader
BinaryWriter Constructors

BinaryWriter()()() Initializes a new instance of the BinaryWriter class that writes to a stream.

BinaryWriter(Stream) Initializes a new instance of the BinaryWriter class based on the supplied stream and using UTF-8 as the encoding for strings.

BinaryWriter(Stream, Encoding) Initializes a new instance of the BinaryWriter class based on the supplied stream and a specific character encoding.

More like:

...
using(BinaryWriter binWriter =
    new BinaryWriter(File.Open(fileName, FileMode.Create)))
{
    binWriter.Write(aspectRatio);
    binWriter.Write(lookupDir);
    binWriter.Write(autoSaveTime);
    binWriter.Write(showStatusBar);
}

Change registry key in Vista

Hi,

We have a number of computers (>300), for which we need to change a particular registry setting. So I wrote a C# program that uses this code to do that:

RegistryKey regkey = Registry.LocalMachine.OpenSubKey(KeyName, true);
regkey.SetValue(KeyValue, 2);

When I distribute the executable, it works perfectly for all XP machines. But the Vista machines (even while in user accounts with Admin access) throw an error:

System.Security.SecurityException: Requested registry access is not allowed

I've tried looking for solutions online but couldn't follow any. Anyone who can help me change a registry key value in Vista through C# code?

Thanks,

Sarab

To run it on Vista, right click on the application and select "Run as administrator".

In addition to what Guffa said, these may help.
Look at the System.Security.Permissions.RegistryPermission class
and/or
Add an app.manifest file and alter the requestedExecutionLevel - this will invoke UAC.

Use the "Text" member for your control, e.g. myTextBox.Text. This is a string that gets/sets the text for the control.

How to turn off UAC using c#?

Not that I can say for sure, but I would imagine that its close to impossible - the point of UAC is to stop programs doing things they shouldn't. If C# could turn it off easily I'd be very worried about UACs value as a security measure...

You probably shouldn't, but, all the UAC stuff is saved in the registry. You can alter those keys (you'll need to invoke UAC via app.mainifest first to be able to access them) from C#. Google for Registry UAC Vista and you should be able to find out which keys they are.

Not sure if from a security standpoint that this is a good idea. Any reason why you must do this?
