It's not illegal at all. Essentially, what Thininstall is doing is creating a customized virtual environment that your application runs in. From your application's point of view it is running with the full framework installed. The company has been around since 1999 and appears to have a well established client list, but the product is not cheap. The base price is $4995.00 USD plus distribution fees. To me, it's not worth the price.

Hi,
The solution you want is definitely feasible but costly.
Yes a .NET application can be deployed to the client machine without installing the complete .NET Framework. Yes and please dont ask me how because i dont have the answer.
But someone has the answer and its here:
Salamander .NET Linker and Mini Deployment Tool
As regards license issues with Microsoft i guess once you reach the above link you will find a key quote given by a Microsoft employee so rest assure it is not anti licensing as far as you are concerned.
But then it is not free and you will need to make sure you get it genuinely and it has great benefits by providing inbuilt obfuscation that prevents reverse engineering of .NET MSIL code, the biggest disadvantage of .NET Applications.
So best of luck and do reply, eagerly awaiting your comments.

Hello everybody,
I´ve a strange problem with WPF Animations.
The mouse will moved over an UserControl (screenshot white area) and the current mouse position will displayed in a pixelbar, displayed by a line at the current pixel position (screenshot orange arrows).
Screenshot link:
http://www.connectiongroup.de/other/scrollbars_export2.png[^]
The pixelbars are own UserControls, which gets the current mouse position over the MouseMove event by the white UserControl.
On my machine with windows vista it´s runs terrible slow, as far the mouse leaves the origin (0x, 0y) it will more stucks, likes on a 486 runinng quake.
Now then, here´s the joke: Under windows XP the same compiled wpf application runs without any problems or stuking. - but, why this?
I´ve tested the executeable on other vista machines, always the the same problem at all.
Anticipate: It´s a Core2Duo with 2.8 GHz and a GeForce 7800 - should actually run ...
Detailed information:
The projekt runs under visual studio 2008 beta 2, it´s a wpf application using 3.5 .NET framework.
I´ve observed in general that wpf animations runs very slow under vista, e.g. a simple rectangle opacity fadein and -out. With XP there´s no problem...
Whereby can this due to, has anyone such a similar problem, does anybody know this problem?

I´ve solved the problem now.
The microsoft support page contains an article "Performance for a WPF-based program that uses the layered windows feature may be less than expected in Windows Vista":
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/938660/en-us
Because Microsoft didn´t provide the download of this hotfix directly, I´ve found it at this page also:
http://thehotfixshare.net/board/index.ph...s&showfile=2879
Executing this update, at first it throws an exception with the code number "0x80070003", which can be solved by deleting the content files of the folder "\Windows\SoftwareDistribution".
After the update runs sucessfully, the animation performance problem was gone!
So, if you add this XAML code to your application for creating a transparent window:
WindowStyle="None" AllowsTransparency="True" Background="Transparent"
...the problem occur immediately !
You can check this out, before starting the update by removing the XAML "transparent" parameters.
Another phenomenon is, that under Windows XP the performance problem doesn´t occur, just with Windows Vista.
I think they didn´t tested this setting enough at release state - hope I can help with my post.

Hi,
Here is the complete snippet for using the FileVersionInfo class.
Thought this would be better for displaying a couple of things:
1. How to get the System Directory
2. How to get the file info. (your primary concern)
Dim appName As String = Environment.SystemDirectory & "\notepad.exe"<br />
<br />
Label1.Text = _<br />
"Comments: " & FileVersionInfo.GetVersionInfo(appName).Comments & vbCrLf & _<br />
"Company Name: " & FileVersionInfo.GetVersionInfo(appName).CompanyName.Trim & vbCrLf & _<br />
"File Build Part: " & FileVersionInfo.GetVersionInfo(appName).FileBuildPart.ToString.Trim & vbCrLf & _<br />
"File Description: " & FileVersionInfo.GetVersionInfo(appName).FileDescription.Trim & vbCrLf & _<br />
"Filename: " & FileVersionInfo.GetVersionInfo(appName).FileName.Trim & vbCrLf & _<br />
"File Version: " & FileVersionInfo.GetVersionInfo(appName).FileVersion.Trim & vbCrLf & _<br />
"Internal Name: " & FileVersionInfo.GetVersionInfo(appName).InternalName.Trim & vbCrLf & _<br />
"Is Debug: " & FileVersionInfo.GetVersionInfo(appName).IsDebug.ToString & vbCrLf & _<br />
"Is Patched: " & FileVersionInfo.GetVersionInfo(appName).IsPatched & vbCrLf & _<br />
"Language: " & FileVersionInfo.GetVersionInfo(appName).Language & vbCrLf & _<br />
"Legal Copyright: " & FileVersionInfo.GetVersionInfo(appName).LegalCopyright & vbCrLf & _<br />
"Product Name: " & FileVersionInfo.GetVersionInfo(appName).ProductName & vbCrLf & _<br />
"Product Version: " & FileVersionInfo.GetVersionInfo(appName).ProductVersion & vbCrLf & _<br />
"Special Build: " & FileVersionInfo.GetVersionInfo(appName).LegalTrademarks & vbCrLf & _<br />
"Original Filename: " & FileVersionInfo.GetVersionInfo(appName).OriginalFilename & vbCrLf & _<br />
" Needless to say that there are some more properties."<br />
So if you haven't really done a lot then this should help you out.
In case i was late in posting ( as usual) please pardon me.
Happy Coding!

In .net 2.0 when we use compiler , we have to use "csc /?" in command prompt for display all the list.
Similarly what is the command for .Net 3.0?
Note: I have install only .Net 3.0 Framework only.

As the .NET 3.0 framework is just an add on to the .NET 2.0 framework and uses the C# 2.0 compiler I'm guessing that if you just install the .NET 3.0 framework you'll still need to install the .NET 2.0 Framework to get the basics (including the C# compiler)

I recommend you either start reading the advice you're being given, or stop asking questions that you're obvioulsy going to ignore the answers to.

How do we compiler in 3.0 which the C# code written in 2.0? Give the step by step process.

Hard to guess what you asked, but C# 3.0 is basically an add on to 2.0. There are no breaking changes AFAIK.

Hello!
I have a C# Windows Form application (VS 2005) which use some COM object. In the end, after Form close, I recieve error message box :
HEADER:
.NET BradcastEventWindow.2.0.0.0.1.e6fa8e.0:MyApplication.exe - Application error
TEXT:
The exception unknown software exception (0x00000005) occured in the application at location 0x7d6210ca
Click OK to terminate program.
I. I have installed WinDbg, but debugging this application is not available.
II. I browse internet for look this error and found that it is Garbage Collector error.
III. I started VS and attached to MyApplication.exe and didn't sow that location 0x7d6210ca, of cource many modules loaded, but this address was to big. May be it is addres of virtual memory?
So, I think that some COM object don't correctly released or some callback come to released object.
May be you have some thinks or ideas?

|
|
|

Did you dispose of the COM object when you were finished with it?

May be not...
Looks like you are right - I call GC.Collect() before return from main() and it is help.
|
|
|
|
|
There are better ways to do this other than calling GC.Collect(). Ideally, you should wrap the COM object you are using in a wrapper class that implmenets the IDisposable interface and the Dispose pattern. This wrapper class should have the responsibility of explicitly releasing (freeing) the the COM object when it is disposed.
|
|
|
|
|
I strongly agree with the IDisposable method of disposal then the GC.Collect() as it may just about bring down the performance a bit more.
Thanks for displaying both the methods.

Vaibhav Sharma

I use class wrapper with Marshal.ReleaseComObject in destructor, but error strangely unpredictable occured in the finish of application.
