You could use a static variable as a semaphore that locks the code while doing the update:
static object dummy = 42;
lock (dummy) {
MailBox box = new MailBox("username");
box.AddMail(mail);
box.Save();
}
This will however lock the update of any mailbox, and I suppose that you would rather want to lock only the specific mailbox. That takes some more work, perhaps a hashtable containing one object for each user, so that you could do the lock on an object for a single user.
Well, at least the code above is a step on the way, it will keep the mail server from corrupting the files.

Thanks, that looks okay.
So you suggest to create a Hashtable (or any other list) with variables that will be used to lock the user mailboxes? Something like this?
static Hashtable boxes = new Hashtable();
boxes.Add(user1, 1);
boxes.Add(user2, 2);
...
lock(boxes[userX])
{
MailBox box = new MailBox(userX);
box.AddMail(mail);
box.Save();
}
Do I need to lock anything inside the MailBox-class, or is the lock inside the MailServer class enough?

Yes, something like that. What is most convenient depends on how you manage the users.
As long as the object you lock is unique for the user, that is enough. Any other thread trying to lock the same object will have to wait until it is unlocked.

You can't do it from ASP.NET. It's got to be done using client-side JavaScript. There's no such thing as a modal window in ASP.NET.

I found out the solution.
private void button1_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
SecondWindow frm = new SecondWindow();
frm.Owner = this;//'this' is the first window's handle.
frm.Show();
}

you should test againt connection string, i think connection string database server not the same, you not permiss logon server or server name and database name not exist.
Good luck.

Connection string is working fine. I am using access database to create a crystal report in C#
when I run on my machine It is asking for database server
name and logon information. The problem which I understood from this
is that the path is hardcoded in the crystal report and the database

Does anyone know how to create a tooltip popup when we point a mouse over a "text" for a period of time. This is normally seen in visual studio. When we point the mouse on a function name or so for a period of time, it will show its declaration in a small tooltip popup window. How can we customize this to show some tooltip information, upon pointing to some of the words for which we want some info. I want to create this as plugin/add-in in Visual Studio .NET so that on pointing to certain words I can get some information about those words. Coding in either VC++/C#(preferrably VC++). I need some help for this urgently...can anyone help me out???

Hi guys,
I have got a CD installing a C# project and copying an access database to the path.
The access file however is always read only - is there a way of chaging this at creating the set up project?
If not, has anyone has those same problems how have they tackled them?
Thanks,
|

If you mean what i think you mean, then add a folder to your solution in the Solution Explorer, and then access it by typing Application.StartupPath + Foldername
This will not work in debug mode, it will only work when you have actually published your file, so you will want to use some #if commands
|

When you add the .mdb file to the setup project, the ReadOnly property for the file in the setup project should get set to false.
If that does not work, then, as a previous poster wrote, you will need to write a custom action to set the file's read/write access.
<edit>
If you have not added the .mdb file to the setup project and are literatlly copying it from the CD, then you will need to do the custom action because the copying probably maintains the read-only-ness of the file on the CD.

Hi,
I have a toolbar with toolbarbuttons on it. Some of the buttons are pictures only, the rest are text only. The problem is that on the text buttons VS leaves a space in the left side and the size of that empty space is exactly the width of the images from imagelist. Does anyone has any idea how could I get rid of that space? Is there any way to disable the imagelist just for a few buttons?
Thank you in advance,
Magda

If you go into the "Items" property of the toolbar you can change the display properties of each individual item.
there is a "DisplayStyle" property in there which changes the buttons to either "Image", "Text" or both
|
|
|
|
|
Thank you, but it seems I dont have any "Items" property on the toolbar. I am not sure why is that. Is it possible because I use VS.net 2003? And in "Buttons (Collection)" either 
|
|
|
|
|
ok I am using VS2005 thats why you dont have the "items" property
|
|
|
|
|
thanks I will install vs.2005 maybe it will look better after all

Can you still build a comment webpage from XML comments in VS 2005. The 'build comment webpage' is no longer in the tools menu.
Is this hidden somewhere else?
