I'm going to use System.IO.Path.GetTempPath() as richard_d suggested. My app is a desktop windows app so I dont think I'll need special storage.

thanks

String Formatting Issue

perlmunger4-Nov-02 7:25

I am writing a code generator that reads in a text file containing source code. The file is my template and it contains {1}, {2}... {n} items in it. I read the file into a string and then I interpolate those values using String.Format(string format, params object[] args). It seems to work fine as long as I don't have any squiggly braces in it ({}) other than the ones that I want to use for formatting (e.g. the {1}, {2}, etc values). It appears that String.Format is choking on the other braces in the code template. I get the exception 'System.FormatException - Input string was not in the correct format'. Does anyone know why this is and how to fix it? Does this makes sense?

Thanks in advance.

Escaping braces is achieved by doubling them. Example : string s = Stirng.Format("my number {{is}} {0}",45);

hi,
consider using the System.Text.Stringbuilder class ( method AppendFormat ). it is much faster with these kind of string operations.

Webbrowser and windowclosing event

Hi, i'm trying to intercept window closing event of the AxSHDocVw.AxWebBrowser object (when a window.close() function is called in javascript) to do some specific task, but the form which contain this control is closed without any closing event raised.

What should i do?

Overriding Form.OnClosing is enough to get notified when a window is canned.

Com marshalling

gharrison4-Nov-02 1:12

I have a method on an OCX that takes void* parameter.
.Net create an interopt layer for this OCX and re-maps the void* to IntPtr
When I pass a IntPtr to this method. COM throws a parameter type mismatch exception.
This is because the IntPtr passed to method as a variant type of VT_INT and not VT_VOID.

How do I pass a IntPtr to this method with a variant type VT_VOID

Re: Com marshalling

Stephane Rodriguez.4-Nov-02 5:49

Stephane Rodriguez.

4-Nov-02 5:49

void* is not a suitable type for the interop marshaller. I would suggest to either rewrite the IDL so it is something like IUnknown* (even if it's not an iunknown interface), or you could as well pass a SafeArray instead : in this case you have a marshall unmanagedtype enum [attribute] to play with to tell the marshaller what is the safearray made of.
Good luck!

Problem in XmlSerialization

Mazdak4-Nov-02 0:02

I have an xml file and xml class that its like this:

public class ModuleSettings
{
	private string connectionString;

	public ModuleSettings()
	{ }

	[XmlElement]
	public string ConnectionString
	{
		get 
		{
			return connectionString;
		}
		set 
		{
			connectionString = value;
		}
	}
}

Then somewhere in my code I do this:

HttpContext context = HttpContext.Current;

ModuleSettings data = (ModuleSettings)context.Cache["Accounts_Settings"];

if (data == null)
{
	XmlSerializer serializer = new XmlSerializer(typeof(ModuleSettings));
.
.

But last line caused unhandled error:

System.InvalidOperationException: Unable to generate a temporary class (result=1). error CS2001: Source file 'E:\WINDOWS\TEMP\ugkdowv3.0.cs' could not be found error CS2008: No inputs specified at System.Xml.Serialization.Compiler.Compile() at System.Xml.Serialization.TempAssembly..ctor(XmlMapping[] xmlMappings) at System.Xml.Serialization.XmlSerializer..ctor(Type type)

It was OK some day before when I test it but today came back to it and saw this happend.Any idea?
