Hi
I'm developing a wpf application using visual studio 2010 in c#.
for security reason, the navigation in the operating system is not allowed while running the application.
That means once it is launched, all Windows menu, icons, toolbars ... must be hidden, and only the application must appear.
(it's a kind of that the PC becomes only dedicated to it).
Any suggestion or Idea ?
Thanks in advance

I don't have any code but what I think you might want to look into is running the application in what is known as 'kiosk' mode.

Sounds like what you want is a "kiosk" mode kinda thing.
If so, you should add WindowStyle="None" and WindowState="Maximized" to the XAML of your main window. Further, you can even disable resizing and make it be the windows at the top from the start, adding ResizeMode="NoResize" and Topmost="True". Code would look like this:
<Window x:Class="WpfApplicationTest1.MainWindow"
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
Title="MainWindow" Height="350" Width="525"
WindowStyle="None"
WindowState="Maximized"
ResizeMode="NoResize"
Topmost="True">
Note that Windows keyboard shortcuts still work (Alt+Tab, Windows Key, Alt+F4). If you want to "disable" those, you will have to capture them, although opening applications in this manner (for example Windows+E for Windows Explorer) won't display the newly opened application since yours is Topmost as set in the property.
[EDIT]
The same can be achieved modifying those properties in the constructor, like so:
namespace WpfApplicationTest1
{
public partial class MainWindow : Window
{
public MainWindow()
{
InitializeComponent();
WindowStyle = WindowStyle.None;
WindowState = WindowState.Maximized;
ResizeMode = ResizeMode.NoResize;
Topmost = true;
}
}
}

Hello
Thanks for your reply.
but with this solution the windows expolorer still work, for example when I push the keybord start button it still works,
What I want to do is to diable all windows fonctionnality (like Windows +E ....)
Thanks

I don't think, you can do this. And even if you did, the user could still press Ctrl + Alt + Del (which can't be intercepted as far as I know), open Task Manager and kill your application.
I would suggest another appoach. Give the user only minimal rights (just to his user directory). Start your application under a different user who has access to the necessary directories. Require a password to close your application. Under this setup the Task Manager is of no use because the user can't kill other users' processes.
The good thing about pessimism is, that you are always either right or pleasently surprised.

The keyword was "Kiosk mode". DuckDuckGo it, and you'll come across checklists like this one[^].

Hi all
If I have a web page URL string in C#, how to save the web page as MHTML extension?
|
|
|
|
|
First, the mandatory question since you don't mention it in your post:
What have you tried?
I remember I did something kind of like what you want about a year ago, since I didn't have a clue, I googled (don't remember the specific query), and one of the first links was a MSDN page with an example to it.
What I mean is: please show/tell us what you've done, and what is the specific problem that you have, so we know that you are indeed making an effort and not just wasting everyone's time.
Now, I'm not just gonna lecture you and give you nothing. Look for info on:
How to read/write files in C#
How to get the HTML contents of a web page
You'll need to get acquainted with the following namespaces/classes:
System.Net[^]
System.IO[^]
Filestream[^]
WebClient[^]

Hi All,
I have created a stored procedure which returns dynamic columns, i need to map this to the EF to populate the data on a KendoUI Grid. How can i do it?
I need to create the entities based on the number of columns returned from the stored procedure, because my columns are always dynamic and change frequently, so i cannot create a fixed custom entity in EF.
if I have used Normal Ado.net it will return datatable format.In this we can't bind kendoui using Datatable.
Any help would be appreciated Please respond ASAP.

If by "do the needful" you mean write your code for you, that's just not going to happen.
You haven't said anything at all about where you're stuck in this process, so it's pretty much impossible to tell you what's going on.

Dave, fyi, the expression "do the needful" is a Hindi-English idiom often used in correspondence; in this case it may not have the meaning of "gimme codez" ... or, it might

I know where it's from and it can be traced back to about the 1700's in British English.
But, since the OP doesn't specify anything at all about what he's looking for, I just had to guess and us an "if" in preface to the most likely possibility.

Hi Dave,
I am delighted to know you are familiar with such constructions (the more common form, I believe, is "do the necessary") [^]. I'm not sure whether, technically, these (now archaic) forms qualify as calques, and/or Anglicisms.
Have you lived in India, or is there a family connection with the Raj ?
Hope my response to you did not seem patronizing

Oh God, no! I just went and did the homework to find out my it's so popular in India, and, to a lesser extent, South Asia English.

Hi Meetnneel,
Please describe what you have done so far, post the code you have written so far, and discuss what specific problems you are having with it.

I am successfully using .NET's BinaryFormatter to serialize a very complex object (an instance, at run-time) into a MemoryStream, and I can save that to a file, and then de-serialize the file back into an instance of the object.
Then, I wanted to add compressing the MemoryStream using GZip [1], before saving it to a file.
I am, without compile- or run- time error, using .NET's GZip facility to GZip the created MemoryStream, and then save it to a disk file.
To summarize the save-to-file sequence:
1. use BinaryFormatter to serialize the object to a MemoryStream
2. use GZip to compress the MemoryStream
3. write the Gzipped MemoryStream to disk
I've already learned the hard way that there is a quirk in using GZip in .NET in compressing [^].
I verify that the file is written, and it appears to have been "shrunk" by the GZip facility.
But, when I try to reverse the process, to essentially deserialize (recreate) the object by:
1. reading the Gzipped saved file into a MemoryStream
2. using GZip's Decompress on the MemoryStream
3. using BinaryFormatter to deserialize the MemoryStream, which I then cast into the Type of the original object: fail.
The point I am stuck at is expressed in this code:
using (GZipStream deCompressionStream = new GZipStream(new MemoryStream(), CompressionMode.Decompress))
{
deCompressionStream.CopyTo(newMemoryStream);
}
BinaryFormatter bFormatter = new BinaryFormatter();
object obj = bFormatter.Deserialize(newMemoryStream);Thanks in advance for any advice.
yours, Bill
[1] I set out to explore using GZip as a way to increase my general knowledge of .NET's stream facilities, and after learning how to successfully use Mehdi Gholam's fastBinaryJSON work here on CP, and using the MiniLZO class in Mehdi's Raptor Document Store.

You're passing an empty MemoryStream to the GZipStreams constructor. You need to pass the stream containing the previously compressed data instead.
using (var fileStream = File.OpenRead(@"Path\To\Your\File.bin"))
using (var deCompressionStream = new GZipStream(fileStream, CompressionMode.Decompress))
{
var bFormatter = new BinaryFormatter();
object obj = bFormatter.Deserialize(deCompressionStream);
}

Richard, thanks very much for your example !
Your deserialization code is one of the first variations I tried, and it fails to deserialize with an error: "The magic number in GZip header is not correct. Make sure you are passing in a GZip stream."
Clearly my Gzipping is not being done properly. This is confirmed by this experiement: if I modify your code like this:
using (var fileStream = File.OpenRead(filePath))
using (var deCompressionStream = new GZipStream(fileStream, CompressionMode.Decompress))
{
var bFormatter = new BinaryFormatter();
object obj = bFormatter.Deserialize(fileStream);
return null;
}That confirms to me I did not GZip properly.
I tried several variations of GZipping found on MSDN, and StackOverFlow: almost all these examples use source.CopyTo(destination) in some form, within the using statements bracketing the use of GZipStream, evidently for the reason there is a known problem with GZipping not being completed fully until after it exits the 'using statement closure, as referenced here: [^].
So, the burden shifts back to finding the correct way for Gzipping.
thanks again for your time, Bill
