"Don't get me wrong, we need more people like you"...
And who the heck are YOU???!!!
Why do I need to criticise MSFT???!!! It's doing it's best providing me an my family with "bread and butter"!!!...
What I'm criticising -- middle and top level management of other companies, that are very fast in catching next hype in order to preserve there position in hierarchy -- those guys are really "empty" and the only reason for there existance is mess they are creating as well as the only ability to play golf and drink!!!...
As to technical issues -- .NET is great, except because it is so, it's pretty simple to implement simple tasks, while difficult to perform and/or have knowledge on how to implemet difficult/not ordinary ones...
That's it...

I am Anonymous101. If you think the name doesn't give enough information, I could change it to something like Anonymous1960.

Looking at the number of exclamation marks, it seems that you have more anger in your chest than a suicide bomber. Why? Let me guess, you think .NET has made programming too easy and therefore takes some of the privileges away to smart guys like you, right?
Either your confidence or your skill is overrated.

Hi,
how to enable editing in propertygrid? A normal enum can be edited via Properties (F4). But how to design a enum with FlagsAttribute? Is there a UITypeEditor which provides a checkedlistbox?

I've not yet started working on .NET so just want to clarify a primary concept about .NET by asking question here.
Friends, in programming with Visual C++ 6, we deal directly Windows Operating systems API. For example consider Winsock API available with operating system. Whenever there is a need to write an application that connects to other systems on a network, we use Winsock API functions to do so. Microsoft made our life easy by encapsulating various Winsock API calls in MFC classes. These MFC socket classes do nothing more than making our life easy. These classes are just the wrapper around same Winsock API functions that we were using before.
I like to ask you the role of .NET in this case. In .NET there are also Socket classes which according to many people are much better than MFC socket classes. Now what is the role of .NET in this case. Here is my question:
Is the role of .NET socket classes same as that of MFC. I mean are .NET classes internally calling the same native Operating system APIs just like MFC ??
|
|
|
|
|
Most likely yes. In most cases, the .NET Base Class Library uses the same API's that you would use in C++.

Yes, but they have a much more modern design, and are much easier to write. The design goal seemed to be "the user of these classes should only need to get into detail if he needs to get into detail".

Hi!
i think i have a problem with .net framework. There is a resourceviewer called reflector. whenn i start it i get an errormassage:
the following assembly name can't be resolved automatically:
System.Windows.Forms.resources, Version=1.0.5000.0, Culture=de-DE, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089
please select the assembly file manually.
i reinstalled the framework sdk and the framework redist (both v 1.1). but the error is still comming.

It appears to a cultural problem. You dont specify if this a Reflector problem or a problem related to a assembly loaded in Reflector, which pretty much can throw the same message. Try setting your regional settings to neutral (US?).

I'm new to CSharp, this question may seem stupid to you guys, really appreciate your answer.
I created 2 files in one projcet: a.cs, b.cs,
now a.cs will reference some class defined in b.cs, I don't see in C# you can do something like "include b.cs", nevertheless both build ok. How does a.cs know to get definition from b.cs?
|
|
|
|
|
The C# compiler will automaticalliy resolve all types in the input files. Thus you can have a.cs with C : B and A and b.cs with B : A, and it will still resolve without issues. If the source is already an assembly you just need to reference that assembly and all its types will be resolved to.

when i tried to include "using System.Web.Services;" in a C# file,
got the following error:
"The type or namespace name 'Services' does not exist in the class or namespace 'System.Web' (are you missing an assembly reference?)"
why is that?
Thanks!

Following is a description of the problem I am having with W2K3, COM+ and Serviced component:
MSDN says: Article Tile: Serviced Component Overview
On Windows 2000 platforms, COM+ always loads the most recent version of the common language runtime for the component you're creating. This means that on a computer with both .NET Framework version 1.0 and .NET Framework version 1.1 installed, .NET Framework version 1.1 is always loaded. As a workaround, you can create a COM+ dllhost.exe.configuration file that enables you to "lock" all applications to a specific version of .NET Framework. On Windows XP and Windows Server 2003 platforms, the Application Root Directory setting can be used to point COM+ to an appropriate directory for its configuration file.
The bit I am interested in is the Application Root Directory setting, I have tried to set this in an application but the properties which give me information from this file still look for the dllhost.exe.config in the System32 directory. I want to confirm that this feature is not working or that there is something else I need to do, to allow the above to be exposed/pulled through to my COM+ objects.

I don't get Channel's (TCPChannel, HTTPChannel), is it just a new way of doing Client Server Applications????
Could some one shead some light on this for me... thanks
|
|
|
|
|
TcpChannel and HttpChannel are used for .NET framework's Remoting part. Remoting can be said to be one way of building client server apps, yes. Basically it's a mechanism for client and server to communicate. And they communicate through the channels (tcp or http) with messages passing through various sinks that can be used to encrypt/decrypt or processed in some other way.

I have Master-Detail datagrid. The detail datagrid is embedded in the Master datagrid. In the detail datagrid I want to implement paging ,sorting etc. I have addes the event handlers delegates manually. For some reason the pageindexchanged or sort events for the detail datagrid. Does anyone know of this behaviour? I saw a lot Master-Details datagrids on the internet, nobody seems to have implemented paging-sorting for details grid embedded within a datagrid. thanks

Hello everybody,
Perhaps someone has experienced the same problem as I had:
I have developped an application and this application is a bit complexe to configure: several DBs, some parameters that depends on the system (such as log files path) and so on. These configuration item are stored in the .config file.
Now, I want to distribute my application. So I built a setup project for it. My problem is that the msi file contains my .config parameters which will not work on an other system. The simple solution is to edit manually the config file after install, which is not very convenient.
I was wondering if there is a way to automaticaly add screens in the setup wizard to configure the application and write the config file while installing.
tahnks in advance.

I don't think the setup stuff that comes with VS.NET can do this directly. You would have to create some custom actions which would then do the work of editing the .config file.
Some time last year I tried to create a custom action, but eventually gave up on it. I can't remember what I was trying to do though.

I have .NET 1.0 (v1.0.3705) and .NET 1.1 (v1.1.4322), but my programs use .NET 1.0. I noticed the presence of the FrameworkVersion=v1.0.3705 environment variable on VS.NET command prompt, which I don't know how to change.
How do you make your programs use the .NET 1.1 version?
|
|
|
|
|
Your programs should automatically use the 1.1 version when it is available (unless you specify otherwise in a .config file). But you probably want to compile with 1.1 so you can use the new features as well
When you installed the SDK, a batch file was installed that sets up the environment variables. On my computer this is at: C:\Program Files\Microsoft.NET\SDK\v1.1\Bin\sdkvars.bat. If you point a shortcut to: %comspec% /k C:\Program Files\Microsoft.NET\SDK\v1.1\Bin\sdkvars.bat then when you open that shortcut you can compile with .NET 1.1.
VS.NET 2002 cannot target 1.1, it was hard coded to target 1.0; so unless someone "patches" it you are stuck with 1.0 for builds through it.

How do you know your apps are using .NET Framework v1.0 and not v1.1?
There is one test I know for sure; With ADO.NET try to use the RowCount</count> property of a <code>SqlDataReader If that works then you are using 1.1 because it is not available in 1.0.
Also that VS.NET cmd prmpt env var: Do you have VS.NET 2003 installed? If not then you have 2002 installed and it will be setup with v1.0.3705 . Once you install 2003 then normally the cmd prmpt in the 2003 folder will be v1.1.

Have you tested this out at all yet performance wise? Just curious because I have not installed 1.1 yet. I wonder who much this effects the performance of the datareader.
