I would think the best way to accomplish backwards compatibility is to derive a new class from the original, and then the calling assembly can use whichever version it wants. No need for compiler directives at all.

Why not using branches on a version control system (like SVN)? Sure, this makes things a bit complicated but should keep the code pretty clean.

0) He's talking about making an assembly compatible between versions. Source control is completely out of context.
1) Just because you *can* make it more complex, doesn't mean you should.

Hi all.
Hopefully someone will be able to give some pointers. I've written a small COM object using C# which is basically a form containing a axwebbrowser object.
The problem i'm having is that when i instantiate my COM object using VB script i am unable to get the web browser to accept any keyboard input. I can click links on pages and navigation works fine, but I can't get it to accept any kind of keyboard input.

i used some 3rd party tools and mine also in an app, now i want to secure those dlls. I used some tools and software those merge the assemblies with exe but i dont like that way because it slow down the startup of app, bugs and many other reasons. Therefore, i thought to copy all the dlls in users' system32(64) directory or any other and it can be done but how to change the path of dlls, mean how to tell my app that read the dll from that directory instead of reading from its own. Any idea ?

Don't do that.

you can't. It will check it's own dir first, then it will check the directories such as system32 if it can't be found locally. What's your security concern - that people will replace your dll with their own ? They can always decompile yours, anyhow, so you've lost that battle before you start.

He could a) strongly name them (detects rogue replacement), and then b) run an obfuscator on them. Most of the commercial obfuscators can merge assemblies, encrypt strings, and create native Windows binaries, so that would solve the decompile problem.

nono, i dont scare of decompile. I know noone can prevent their dlls or exes. All i just want to hide the dlls, my app should look like single exe app. thats it.

The best way to do that is to merge the assemblies.

You can use IlMerge[^] to merge managed assemblies.

yupp mate, i tried that too but that thing is very typical. After spending hrs on that i had nothing new

Because one feature of .NET is meant to be that you can copy a folder and move it to another machine to redeploy. Also, because those folders get polluted with too much crap and it's better not to contribute. Finally, if some other app has a dll with the same name as yours and they go to the same place, what happens then ? Oh, if you have to release more than one version of the sale dll, putting them in the app folder means you can safely do that.

yeah i agree with you but dude understand this situation...this is different, no connection with any rule or anything. E.g. a best friend of you that says to you to make an app for him/her and (s)he says also that app must be single exe then what will you do. Wont you develope one ? Will you say him/her that this is poor design ?

If you place dlls in other directory, you can use Appdomain.AssemblyResolve event to point your application to the dll it needs. But as everyone can look into your application, they will be able to see the directory where the dlls reside.

yes, thats biggest drawback of .net applications
anyway i have to do what i need  i will try Appdomain.AssemblyResolve

If you strongly name the assemblies and install into the GAC you won't need to go to this trouble.
You could also use the config file to tell where your assemblies are located
Assembly Placement[^]
You may also want to review this article How the Runtime Locates Assemblies[^]
Moving assemblies around just so your app appears as a single file is a poor design and deployment choice anyway.

Hi,
I would like to create application that support main menus, toolbar and popup menus.
I know I can define one function and related all events ‘Click’ to this function.
I would like to define shortcut, tooltip and image for each GUI interface such as main men, tool bar and popup menu.
Is there an option to define it one time and relate it to each control?
I know I have in Borland type call ‘Action’ that can define the event function and property such as tooltip, shortcut and then define the action in each control
That way I define it one time and not three times for each option in GUI
Thanks
Ronen

Sure, you can create one method and point all of your events to it. That's about it, really.

Hi
OK and what about the definition of the shortcut and tooltip?
Ronen

The tooltip you can assign in the properties of the control, same place as the event handler goes. But, you do have to do that for each menu item/button/etc. Same for the shortcut.

Hello all,
I have a region that I have crated by combining and excluding GraphicsPath objects.
Now, I want to draw the region's outline, not fill it as it is.
I can't find any way to do that...
Anyone has any ideas???
Thanks.
