The free obfuscator with VS.net is the preemptive.com community edition. On the preemptive site it says it's only for acadamic and personal use.
So does that mean if you buy VS.Net 2003 and obfuscate your code with it, that you can't sell your app?
I'm looking for a url to some Microsoft legal that says there are no restrictions to the bundled version of the dotfuscator. If anyone wants to respond with just conjecture and guesses, no thanks, I need a url. I need legalese.
thanks in advance if you have a URL,

I would imagine you could find the text of the EULA for dotfuscator somewhere on the VS.NET 2003 CDs. That would tell you for sure what you are allowed to do.

the dotfuscator shipped with 2003 is the "community edition" of the dotfuscator and
i would GUESS that the same rules apply if you get it from vs.net2003 or from their site.
also the community edition is not very good , it does merely change method/prop names , nothing else...
we use the full version which has workflow obfuscation , break ildasm , string encryption and shite , works lovely..

i really dunno but i want to tell u that when i open the file using the same application that created it , it opens successfully but when i try to open it from other application it gives the error.
Do you think that saved files can be opened ONLY by the application that created it.
thanks for replaying

all of the labels and text boxes disappeared from my form. The underlying class is still intact(all labels and textboxes are declared).
Does anybody know how I can 'refresh' my form?

Hi,
Try checking more deeply into the InitializeComponent method, probably the editor deleted all initialization code.
Hope this helps.

Thanks. It turns out that all of the calls to the 'AddRange' method of my containers (tabs, group boxes ect.) had been deleted.

In a winform using C#, I have a listview to which I've
added some items... I want to be able to detect a double
click event on an item that will tell me which item was
double clicked.
I've tried the double click event for the listview, but
it has no info about which item was clicked... I need
listview item event info.. can someone give me some
advice as to how this can be done...?
thanks.

Use the ListView's GetItemAt method to retrieve the item which was clicked.
You get the point that was clicked by using the static Control.MousePosition property, then pass that through the ListView's PointToClient method (to convert from screen coordinates to ones relative to the listview).
f.e
ListViewItem lvi = myListView.GetItemAt(
myListView.PointToClient(Control.MousePosition)
);HTH,
James

Set Activation property of ListView to 'Standard' and in 'ItemActivate Event' of ListView use the following code to get listview item info -
ListViewItem itms = listView.SelectedItems[0];

string m_sSelect = "SELECT Firstname, Secondname, [House Name], [House No], Street, Area, Postcode FROM VOTERSREGISTER WHERE [Postcode] = 'DUBLIN 6W'";
int m_nCurrentRow = 0;
...
...
...
public bool Read(ref DataSet ds)
{
SqlDataAdapter m_sda = new SqlDataAdapter(m_sSelect, m_sqlcConn);
ds.Clear();
try
{
m_sda.Fill(ds, m_nCurrentRow, 100, "VotingRegister");
}
catch(ERROR BLA DI BLA....)
{
return false;
}
if(0 == ds.Tables["VotingRegister"].Rows.Count)
return false;
m_nCurrentRow += 100;
return true;
}
This is the my code.
Now my problem is that I am using a DataSet to hold the return data and I place that data in a Table called VotingRegister. I feel thats a bit of a waste. Is there anyway that just insert the data into a DataTable? Also see the way I pull in 100 rows at a time. Is it possible to do the same with .Fill() if you use a DataTable? As I'm expect over 5000 records to be returned if I didn't do it in steps.
help please!

It's a slight waste, but the bulk of the memory used is going to be in the DataTable so the small amount used by the DataSet isn't much when compared.

Yes, the Fill method adds or updates records in the DataTable so existing records will still be there.

I gather your on about this one...
[C#]
protected virtual int Fill(
DataTable dataTable,
IDbCommand command,
CommandBehavior behavior
);
but what I don't understand is how do you get it to read in 100 rows at a time. Say If I have 1000 rows in a database. I only want 100 at a time. I read in the first 100, I read in the second 100 but need to read from row 200. how you do that?

I need to be able to filter a proc list to only the currently logged in user. I tried using System.Diagnostics.Process.GetProccess(string name); it returns a list of process with that name for the entire computer.
How do I filter this list down? (This is for windows xp fast user switching support)

You can do it with WMI very easily:

Hello all,
I'm trying to write an ownerdrawn statusbarpanel that shows the progress of a webpage d/l. like the IE one, but I having a problem. Basically the OnDrawItem event isn't being called when I need it to be called. In the ProgressChange event for the WebBrowser I'm assigning my ProgressPanel (derived from StatusBarPanel) the value it needs, but then it's never updating because the OnDrawItem event isn't being called. Now if I resize the form the panel gets drawn, unfortunately since the download is already done, the panel is full. I'm not sure how I get the OnDrawItem event to fire everytime there is a progress change. Anyone know how I could do this?
Thanks

You need to invalidate the control to force it to redraw. try doing : this.Refresh(); in the event handler code for OnProgressChanged().

When I started learning about C#, I noticed the sample programs would use the funky argument-substitution notation inside Console.WriteLine, similar to printf in C:
int a = 17;
string b = "something";
Console.WriteLine("a = {0} and b = {1}", a, b);
When I finally got around to writing some code, I decided to stick with the Java approach of simply contatenating everything, which to me seems easier to read and less error prone:
Console.WriteLine("a = " + a + " and b = " + b);
I'd like to get some opinions on the pros and cons of each approach.
Why does Microsoft seem to promote the first technique? The thing is, you look at other WriteLines, such as Debug.WriteLine and Trace.WriteLine and they don't take a variable number of arguments, so you can't use the argument-substitution technique there. 
Thanks,
Alvaro

I usually use the second one 
Now a days... computers are so fast it doesn't matter how you do it, as long as it works. That's why I use the easier way.
But sometimes it helps to know how to use the first one, because in the first method it is easier to read the code, and modify it later.

By using the argument substitution you can add additional formatting to the WriteLine call (such as pad numbers or strings) which you may or may not be able to do the other way, depending on how the ToString method is written for each variable's type.
Another advantage is if you are localizing your application you only have one string to replace instead of 2 for your example.
As you point out the con is that you aren't placing the variable right there so you need to reference back and forth to get the whole picture.

A shame too, I find myself having to do: string.Format inside of the WriteLine method

I prefer the first method since it makes the code far more readable. I'm not too sure as to whether one is more efficient than the other, it'd be interesting to see though.
I tend to use String.Format("{0}: {1}") etc. when using it with a method that doesn't directly support it.
