thanks. It is not there, so perhaps I installed the wrong sdk.
I realized that I can have the installer launch an executable or call a dll (written in c#?).
So, i might just put the code I need in there.

Mike,
I'd recommend that you don't modify the PATH variable at all - the path has a limited size and a lot of installers edit the PATH unnecessarily. Instead, setup a registry subkey under the App Paths key:
[HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\App Paths]
Easy to delete at uninstall time too.
You set the key name to your .exe name (no path) and set the default unnamed value to the full path to the .exe; optionally you can also set a Path value containing the extra directories needed by that executable (really useful for multiple applications that refer to common libraries).
Beware though that if your executable name is something obvious that may have been used by someone else (e.g. "msdev.exe") you may end up overwriting the existing key.
BTW, I'd also recommend that if you do install shared libraries somewhere then store that path in the registry (under HKLM) to allow other installers to find them, rather than hardcoding installation folders.
Regards,
John Bates.

thanks for the suggestion on app path. I had looked into that, but unfortunately, the app path is not search when commands are run from the command line. only from the run window.

What's necessary to get a screen capture from a program that uses video overlaying (Windows Media player for one). Several programs such as SnagIT advertise being able to capture from these programs. Is there anything special in code that I need to use besides a standard bitblt?

I'm looking for a way to write an object on a file. In Java I use ObjectOutputStream with a FileOutputStream.
There's in C# something similar?

fantastic I'll try following the example of the guide:
string fileName = Path.GetTempFileName();
FileInfo fileInfo = new FileInfo(fileName);
// Write the current time to the file in binary form.
DateTime currentTime = DateTime.Now;
FileStream fileWriteStream = fileInfo.OpenWrite();
BinaryFormatter binaryFormatter = new BinaryFormatter();
binaryFormatter.Serialize(fileWriteStream, currentTime);
fileWriteStream.Close();
// Read the time back from the file.
FileStream fileReadStream = fileInfo.OpenRead();
DateTime timeRead = (DateTime)binaryFormatter.Deserialize(fileReadStream);
fileReadStream.Close();
Console.WriteLine("Value written {0}", currentTime);
Console.WriteLine("Value read {0}", timeRead);

Hi,
I have a problem with passing parameters to a method in a COM , i had imported to my C# application using the IDE add reference. This is because the parameter has type as "out object", when i tried passing an Object (reference) to this, the error is "invalid arguments". Can anybody please help me out on this??

You probably just need to add the "out" keyword to your function call, just before the variable name.
void foo( YourComObject com )
{
object o;
com.GetXyz( out o );
...
}

Hi
Does anyone have c# code for solving a linear system of eqns using Gaussian Elimination or some other nice technique? Or does anyone know the formula for inverse of a 6x6 matrix in closed form? Or is anyone aware of a plug-in linear algebra library for c#? Thanks,

I have an instance of a control for each record in a dataset and the dataset is re-Filled frequently. What is the best way for the controls to access the data set or to update the controls' properties each time the data is read?

I use controls like this - only the controls painted on the screen are created. Data are retrieved to DataSet and displayed during painting. Data are updated in try{} catch{} in TextChanged events of controls.

Hi,
I'm trying to write visual studio add-in.
I want to have toolbar with my own icons so I use this:
commands.AddNamedCommand(addInInstance,"MyCmd","MyCmd","Decription",true,1,ref cntG,(int)vsCommandStatus.vsCommandStatusSupported+(int)vsCommandStatus.vsCommandStatusEnabled);
But this code throws NullReferenceException 
I added SatelliteDLLName and SatelliteDLLPath keys to registry.
File SatelliteDLLPath\SatelliteDLLName exists and it contains bitmap 16x16 with number 1.
I've done exactly same thing before and it works, but now it doesn't.
<edit>
I created new project with new satellite dll and now it throws: COMException: Unspecified error
</edit>
Thank you for any help 
i'm only pointer to myself

I didn't placed satellite dll to 1033 folder (but i think, that first time I was doing this it works without placing dll to this folder).

Hi All,
Question: How do you create .resources files?
- monrobot13
|
|
|
|
|
The resgen commandline utility will create them from .resx or .txt files.
If you don't have a .resx or .txt file then you'll have to create one, the format is described in MSDN, and VS.NET can create .resx files (but you probably don'thave VS.NET since you need to manually create a .resources file).
