So, what's the difference between your solution and creating a Web Service that does calls to your COM components?
No one said that you should put everything on the Web Server.
Again, Web Services are simply a standard protocol for receiving delivering XML messages. You can do Web Services in standard, old ASP, if you want to. You only won't have the automatic XML generated, but SOAP (the protocol used by web services) is very easy to generate by hand.

Yes, even I am blogging now!

I found this link nice and informative: http://www.15seconds.com/issue/040812.htm[^]

I've got a laptop that doesn't seem to want to act as a Remoting Server although it's quite happy to be a Remoting Client. Full information available on my blog[^].

Please help Frown | :(

hi,

I want to disable my assembly executing from ILDSAM. For this i need to remove the assembly header. But in the same time i need to do JIT for my application. Here i want assembly header.

How i will make sure that my assembly won't show anything if he try to view it in ILDasm.exe. And one more thing i am not going to use obscation here. Smile | :)

I have created a COM object by wrappiing a .NET assembly using tlbexp. This assembly is dependent on another assembly which, in turn, is dependent on two third party assemblies (I can't rebuild them and give them "strong names"). How can I deploy these dependent assemblies (DLLs)so that the COM object will work?

I can't rebuild them and give them "strong names"

Actually, you can. Use ildasm.exe to disassemble, and then ilasm.exe to reassemble:

ildasm /out:test.il unsigned.exe<br />
ilasm /resource=test.res /output=signed.exe /key=test.snk test.il

In any case, as long as you deploy everything to the same directory, it should work fine, even without strong naming.

my blog

I would be happy to deploy everything in the same directory. The problem is that I don't know which directory use. The main DLL (DLL_1), and the only one whose classes I wish to expose, has been registered by REGASM and is accessible to unmanaged code. Not being a "second generation" MS programmer, I don't know much about the registry -- except that the methods exposed by DLL_1 are visible using regedit -- but not DLL_1's physical location. I have placed copies of the other DLLs in various places (e.g. a) the bin directory of DLL_1's project and b) the directory that contains the copy of DLL_1 that was "REGASMed") without success.
Any help making up for my generation2 deficiencies (Gen 2 > DOS and < .NET) would be greatly appreciated.
By the way, do you think it will take ten years for Generation 2 to die? (I wrote DOS code in early 2003 and Generation 2 started in 1993).

Gary Hyslop

If you use the /codebase option of regasm.exe, then the registry will contain the path to that dll.

If the other DLLs are .NET dlls then they can be in the same directory as DLL_1, and DLL_1 should find them fine.

Maybe this is what your looking for.

I'm trying to simply print some text, along with one or more illustrations. The illustrations print fine, and the text does as well, as long as the font is huge.

I've tested this bug using sizes 73, 60, 50, 30, 20, and 10, and all sizes smaller than 50 appear as random characters. I've used both times new roman and Arial font families with identical results. Does anyone know why it is doing this?

I'm using C# in a windows forms application. Any Ideas? Confused | :confused:

hi,

I wrote an article for the same. But i forgot the discusson group where i kept that. but still i have that source which will help you to print your page and content while keeping the font size in mind.

private void menuItem6_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
try
{
PrintDia=new PrintDialog();
PrintDia.Document=printDocument1;
string content=this.Editor.Text;
StrReader=new StringReader(content);
if(PrintDia.ShowDialog()==DialogResult.OK)
{
this.printDocument1.Print();
}
}
catch(Exception Ex)
{
MessageBox.Show(Ex.Message.ToString());
}
}

private void printDocument1_PrintPage(object sender, System.Drawing.Printing.PrintPageEventArgs e)
{
try
{
float Lines_Per_Page = 0;
float Y_Position = 0;
int Count = 0;
float Left_Margin = e.MarginBounds.Left;
float Top_Margin = e.MarginBounds.Top;

string Line = null;
Font fnt = Editor.Font;
SolidBrush Solid = new SolidBrush(Color.Black);

Lines_Per_Page=e.MarginBounds.Height/Font.GetHeight(e.Graphics);

while(Count < Lines_Per_Page && ((Line=StrReader.ReadLine())!=null ))

{

// calculate the next line position based on
// the height of the font according to the printing device
Y_Position =Top_Margin + (Count * fnt.GetHeight(e.Graphics));

// draw the next line in the rich edit control

e.Graphics.DrawString(Line ,fnt ,Solid ,Left_Margin ,Y_Position ,new StringFormat());

Count++;
}

if(Line !=null)
e.HasMorePages=true;
else
e.HasMorePages=false;
}
catch(Exception Ex)
{
MessageBox.Show(Ex.Message.ToString());
}

}

private void menuItem4_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
try
{
string Content=Editor.Text;
StrReader = new StringReader(Content);
PrintPreviewDialog Print_Preview=new PrintPreviewDialog();
Print_Preview.Document=printDocument1;
Print_Preview.ShowDialog();
}
catch(Exception Ex)
{
MessageBox.Show(Ex.Message.ToString());
}
}

Thanks, but my main issue has to do with beintg able to specify a particular font family and size without it appearing as gibberish. I don't need to worry about line spacing or anything like that. The text I'm printing is essentialy captions for a picture. The text displays perfectly at sizes of 50 points or higher, but immediately turns to random characters at smaller sizes.

Maybe I am just over fussy, but I would like to exactly replicate the OS Font when ownerdrawing a control. I have looked at the examples on CodeProject and the Web and all of them seem to fail to correctly render.

To demonstrate this try,
Create a new windows form application, and set the form to Tahoma.
Add a standard label, Textbox or other control, and set it to be FlatStyle=System. Set it's .Text to be "Debug"
Then add a new user control, override the OnPaint and Drawstring("Debug"...);

You will notice that the D and e have a different spacing and also that the final point of the e raises on the Drawstring text. (Use the XP magnifier or download the taskbar magnifier from MS powertools to see it more easily).

I have so far tried:
StringFormat, SmoothingMode, InterpolationMode and TextRenderingHint and yet I have failed to have much effect.

Does anybody have the answer?

Hi

I am in the need to develop a .net component that can communicate two different sql server databases. These two servers are physically different location. That .net application will be in server A and it update some data into Server B located in some other place.

Can any one help me to develop database connectivity in either VB.net or C#.NET?

The SqlConnection object will take a connection string that gives the name of the server. All you need to do is ensure that your .NET component can see both databases. There is nothing different involved from connecting normally.

In my development two servers are in different location that means first one is in New Delhi and second one in singapore, not even in private network like VPN.My problems is how to construct a connect string either for SQLServer provider or OleDB Provider

Please find something for me...!

You need a network connection of some kind between the SQL Server and your .NET application.
