thanks for the comments, they have been quite informative.
I understand how thread management works & the overheads associated. My understanding is that having a thread blocked by a kernel object (eg mutex) reduces the thread management overhead for that thread. As the tcpip stack is in kernel mode, i have assumed that blocking on a winsock call is like blocking on a mutex wait.
In any case, io completion ports seem to offer better performance, at the cost of using windows specific code. In fact I had just started reading about ioscp & I intend to investigate them further. Any one know of any good code examples (unmanaged &/or .net)
I assume that BeginRead uses iocps
Wrt our existing server, it uses 1 thread per socket connection. My tests involved running client emulators on 10 pcs, each emulating 100 clients, each client repeatedly sending data to the server. The PCs were connected in a 100Mbs lan.
Wrt .net & iocps.
Can .net code that uses iocps (ie BeginRead) be ported to unix via mono?

Yes. Managed C++ can cause problems with Mono if you use the Windows API, but pure C# applications should run on Unix just fine -- not even porting, but just running as-is. There's just small things you need to watch out for; things like keeping the directory seperator ('/' and '\') and endline ('\n', '\r\n') neutral (use Path.DirectorySeparatorChar and Environment.NewLine respectively). Also, Windows.Forms, the GUI component, is not quite complete yet.
.NET uses thread pooling [^] to take care of its asynchronous socket connections: "The .NET Framework uses thread pools for several purposes: asynchronous calls, System.Net socket connections, asynchronous I/O completion, and timers and registered wait operations, among others."
I'm working on a mini-http server in C# right now (uses BeginRead and such), so it might be interesting to try hammering it with connections. I could give you statistics and such if you're interested, sometime in the near future.

I have recently completed the implementation of a bridging service between a propietary system and SAP. The service receives all of its requests from the propietary system, retrieves the appropiate result from SAP and returns it.
I used asynchronous sockets in C# to do this.
The service handled 1000 simulaneous connections during tests without noticeable delays in response.
On the downside, the memory usage is tremendous. .NET FW + Service = 10 (Idle) to 25 (1000 Conns) MB. And I don't keep any results.

Hi,
I am a beginner in VB.Net and have written a Custom Control that uploads file to a share point server. The control Runs in the Web Browser. The problem I am facing is that when I print the Html page that contains the Control .. the Control wont get printed instead there is a deformed shape of the control that gets printed. The rest of the contents on the page are printed fine.
I am printing through the Web Browser.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks in Advance

as far as I remember you can simply access this data by view or directly from dataset, but you can also try to formulate proper SQL query and you will get what you need

When I create a ATL project in under C++ projects in VS 7.1 a additional project <project name="">PS is also created. For exmaple if I create a project with the name "Test1" then "Test1PS" is also created. Can anyone let me know why this is create?
Thanks in advance

Test1PS is a project to build a separate Proxy/Stub DLL for marshalling. This DLL is loaded by COM if it needs to marshal calls between different contexts - for example, between different apartments in a single process, between different processes on a single machine, or between different machines.
You can build a separate proxy/stub DLL if you want to deploy it to a different machine, or if you don't want to load your whole DLL into another process. Proxy/stub DLLs are also used if you're building a local server (an .EXE). This is the only supported scenario if using attributes, which is the default in VS.NET 2003. If you don't use attributes you can make the proxy/stub classes part of your component DLL, but you need to define your interfaces using IDL.
A custom proxy/stub DLL is not required if your interface conforms to the Automation standard. In this situation the type library is sufficient. Registering the type library causes keys to be written to the registry which register the Automation marshaller as the proxy/stub for your interfaces.
Stability. What an interesting concept. -- Chris Maunder

Hi,
My Solution has 3 Projects placed in 3 directories. 2 projects generate DLLs, 1 project generates the final application using the DLLs (at load-time). When I start debugging, I would like the EXE to always find the last compiled DLLs.
For this I see two ways:
- copy the DLLs after each (re)compilation into the EXE directory.
- include the DLL directories into the PATH environnement variable just before Debugging
I did managed NEITHER NOR, from inside Visual Studio. Can someone HELP me?
Thank you very much,
Jerome

Hello all...
I have created a simple windows service that monitors some folders using a FileSystemWatcher and moves any files saved to these folders. I have built a windows forms application that displays the status of the service and allows the user to stop and start the service. What I would like to do is have this application respond to events raised by the libraries used in the windows service, so I could display status and error messages. I am not exactly sure what would be the appropriate method to implement this. From what I can find, it looks like perhaps I should use .net remoting to communicate between the service and the client.
Can anyone help point me in the right direction?
Thanks in advance for your help!

Add a tab control to a resizable form, set the tab control docking to full... resizing the form causes the tab control and controls in it to flicker like crazy. Seems to happen at least when using C# or C++.
Is there any way to stop this problem? Thanks.

Is there any available design patterns that allow you to add data to hash tables in a transactional manner? (ie: roll back the addition in the event that adding data to one should fail)?
I am building a prototype class for a project I am working on that needs to store some data and I am trying it out two ways to see how it works.
One way is to use an in memory dataset with a few columns to store the data, the other on using a few hash tables to store each column along with its key.
Since the addition to the hash tables will require multiple hashtabel_name.Add() function calls I am thinking that there is the remote possibility that one add might fail for some reason. I would love to be able to roll back the other additions that have been made up to the point where I error out. Barring the use of a try/catch block around each .Add() and then the correct .Remove() calls for each of the previous hash tables, is there any 'known and tested' way of doing this?
Am I wasting my time here? Would it just be simpler to use a dataset for this and do my CRUD with SQL queries when I need to? I want to keep this as lean as needed. The data will not need to be persisted to any physical devices (ie: saved to disk) and is only used in the context of the class.
The big reason I am considering the hash table route is that one of the 'columns' needs to store a reference to another class and I am not sure if I could accomplish what I am trying to do with a dataset.

Hi, I have to convert a VB.NET application to C#. In the VB code, the expession CInt(True) is used. I read that CInt(True) was equal to -1 while Convert.ToInt32(True) was equal to 1.
Now I'd like to convert CInt(True) to C#... how can I do it? I can't use an explicit cast since we can't convert a bool to an int, and I can't use Convert.ToInt32()... what can I do???
Thanks!!!

Not exactly sure what you are trying to do. It really depends on the context of your application. If the value is being persisted (in a file, database, etc.) then you can use an if statement to convert true to -1 in order to keep consistent with old data. But if being used in some sort of a comparison, lets say, then you need to evaluate what it's being compared to and make a decision around that.
BTW, have you looked at any of the available automated VB.NET to C# converters out there? There are some free ones too.

Why don't you write your own function that does the job?
private int ConvertVBBoolToInt(bool val)
{
return (val ? -1 : 1);
}

Maybe I am showing some low-level ignorance of data types here but I just don't understand why we have these
VB.NET
Short
Integer
Long
C#
short
int
long
When we have these:
System.Int16
System.Int32
System.Int64
Can anyone explain this to me?
If it is just for backwards compatibility with code on the part of VB I don't really buy it because the same things are there in C# and there should not have been any backwards issues with 'old C# code' to worry about.
Anyone want to enlighten me?

I believe that the System ones are objects, and the other ones are basic types, which means among other things that you can't do if myObject is short

I don't think that's correct, the C# keywords are just aliases for the System classes. So int is exactly the same as System.Int32, which derives from System.Object. It is the same in VB.NET too.
As to why they added aliases, maybe it is to preserve the feel of the language.

Hi,
I've got a C# .NET forms application - I need to make this program support a number of differant languages. I've done the basics of getting it ready to be localized. i.e. I have all my strings stored in a simple text file with keys and they get compiled into satellite DLL's so I can add new languages and the app will use them.
However I have a question regarding the best way to manage this process. At the moment I have a strings.txt file, which contains strings that are used in the program such as error messages.
Then the UI, each Window in the program and the dialogs etc, they all have their own language-strings and prompts actually just add'ed to them in the VS.NET designer.
I know that each Windows Form has a .resx file which contains all the resources, including these strings.
I guess my question is, how can I simplfy the process of adding new languages - I pretty much don't want to have to sit there, make each form "Localizable" and then type each different language version in to the VS.NET IDE.
Especially as I'm not the one doing the translating.
Is there anyway to get the UI to use strings from a non-default resource file as such? Maybe so I could get all the strings in one place and then send them away to be translated.
Is there is a simple way to do this that I'm missing?
Thanks
Simon

Try the ARP command which displays the physical address. You can use the System.Diagnostics.Process class to run the ARP command from .NET.

Hi,
My NET debuggers do not work. I get an error:
"Error while trying to run project:Unable to start debugging.
No such interface supported."
Note that this is not the commonly mentioned web debugger problem.
I have tried completely uninstalling VS NET and re-installing. Did not fix.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Robert
