Uhh why?
I mean its really extra work when you think about it. Its not the teams coding style, you have to spend extra time learning the style and how the communication is designed. Especially if it creates a lot of classes. Really code generators are a wiast of effort in my opinion, for a midsized project they cause more hurdles than thier worth. What about when something changes, it takes more time to leartn the code than write it. These were expressed in an article on this site but I cant remember which one it was.
And really does it use reflection to populate and a connection string, thats as simple as dragging a DataConnection onto your form in the IDE. And stored procedures are nothing but easy. I can create 50 of em in one day.
But then again thats my opinion.

Yeah I understand, I have been a consultant for far toom many IT managers who were not technical thinking this was great and called my aganecy for me to save the day.
I love development tools like advanced intellisense and what not but I am biased on eagerly against code producers.

Hello all,
I got this object obj, it's an instance of CTestClass. Now I want to pass this object across my network using MyWebService. So, I've wrote a Method called GoObject:
[WebMethod]<br />
[XmlInclude(typeof(CTestClass))]<br />
<br />
public bool GoObject(object obj)<br />
{<br />
if(obj is CTestClass)<br />
{<br />
return true;<br />
}<br />
<br />
return false;<br />
}
But, whenever I call this method passing a client side instance of CTestClass, I get the following error message:
The type TesteClass.CTestClass was not expected. Use the XmlInclude or SoapInclude attribute to specify types that are not known statically.
What's the professional way to perform what I'm trying to 
Best Regards

As the error states, the WSDL for Web Service is missing a type declaration for the CTestClass. You either need to edit the WSDL manually, or better yet - do what the error tells you. Include the CTestClass type using either the XmlIncludeAttribute (better portability) or the SoapIncludeAttribute that take a Type as a parameter:
public class Test : WebService
{
[WebMethod]
[XmlInclude(typeof(CTestClass))]
public bool GenericUpdate(object o) { }
}
Otherwise, the web service doesn't understand know the WSDL for the CTestClass type and can't deserialize it. See the .NET Framework documentation for XmlIncludeAttribute for a good example.
PS: You shouldn't use the old Polish notation with classes and members in .NET, like beginning classes with a "C". Most languages have language guidelines that developers should follow when possible to make all libraries consistent and easy to use. There is a design guidelines in the .NET Framework that describes the changes (really not that bad and mostly for public/protected members), but they are good to follow.

How do I edit the WSDL manually?

Short answer...don't! There's a lot of work involved (and you really have to understand WSDL) and ever time you compile with changes you'd either invalidate the WSDL or loose it. All you'd be doing, though, is adding a definition for the CTestClass, which is what using the simple one-liner XmlIncludeAttribute above the method would do. I strongly suggest using the latter route.
If, for some reason, you need to edit the WSDL directly I suggest you check-out some of the MSDN articles on Web Services. Several of them do this but they have enterprise-ready solutions that sometimes require more than the framework provides. From what I can tell, the XmlIncludeAttribute is exactly what you need (since ASP.NET will pull the type from the dependent assembly which must be there for the o is CTestClass statement to work anyway, into the WSDL generated for WS clients).

So, Is something like this?
[WebMethod]
[XmlInclude(typeof(CTestClass))]
[XmlIncludeAttribute(typeof(CTestClass))]
public bool GoObject(object obj)
{
if(obj is CTestClass)
{
return true;
}
return true;
}

You actually have the XmlIncludeAttribute specified twice! Remember that languages like C#, VB.NET, and MC++ don't require the "Attribute" suffix, though some languages might (it depends on the compiler). Simply:
[WebMethod]
[XmlInclude(typeof(CTestClass))]
public bool GetObject(object obj)
{
if (obj is CTestClass) return true;
return true;
}
And make sure that the assembly in which CTestClass is defined is referenced as a dependent assembly (or in the Web Service assembly itself, although this doesn't make any sense since the client can't use the type (even if retyped, since a Type is defined by its namespace, class name, assembly name, and public key token).

Hello, has anyone ever created a MIME filter before (c# or otherwise)?
I tried to make a mime filter for a content-type that I invented: "text/myml", and when I test it, my filter's Start() method get's called, but then nothing else happens. The behavior in the browser is that it just hangs until I click the stop button. Although, when I click the stop button, IE calls my mime filter's Abort and Terminate methods.
Is there something special my MIME filter has to do in the Start method? All I have it doing right now is store m_Sink and m_pIncomingProt.
Also when Start() is called, dwReserved.pProtocol comes in null. I don't know why but that seems like a bad thing?

Do you have documentation source for this? I need to do something similar, and I assumed that it would require writing a COM server...

It does, and I haven't had much success doing so. You need to look into the IInternetProtocol interface and its related interface. You basically have to recreate a lot of that functionality in .NET. By the time you're done, you may as well have done it in C++ because of the amount of work.
I was working on a library for it (abstract class and stuff like that), but there's a lot of hang-ups because interface methods don't always interop using 1-to-1 parameter mapping. For instance, the IClassFactory.CreateInstance method is only supposed to take 2 methods (while the return type is still void) instead of 3. Just weird stuff like that.
If you want, you could create forward declarations of these in an IDL file, compile the IDL file using the MIDL compiler, then generate an interop assembly using tlbimp.exe. It works to generate the interfaces, structs, and enums, but it's very messy and doesn't always provide what you need. For instance, it always creates methods that return void, when some of those protocol methods must return an HRESULT (int or uint is good in .NET) in order to work correctly, since different return values tell the client to do different things. This becomes a big problem when generating the interop assembly automatically.

I would like to be able to accept phone numbers in various formats:
800-555-1212
800.555.1212
(800) 555-1212
(800)555-1212
and then format it to this:
800-555-1212
i created a function which strips out characters: ()-<space>
so now my number is: 8005551212
but how can i put the "-" back in there to make it 800-555-1212 ?
thanks in advance!

I have a panel with scrollbars, and now I want to be able to control the scrollbars with up-down-right-left and pgdown/pgup keys. So I've added key listeners, like below:
.
.
else if(ke.KeyCode == Keys.Left)
{
AutoScrollPosition = new Point(this.AutoScrollPosition.X + 10, 0)
}
else if(ke.KeyCode == Keys.Right)
{
AutoScrollPosition = new Point(this.AutoScrollPosition.X - 10, 0)
}
.
.
now the first time i press the 'right' key it will jump 10, but when I press the same key again,
the position will be reset!!!! why why why.
I check the autoscroll position before i press 'Right' and it's 0. afterwards it's -10.
the before i press it again it's -10 also. But when i press it yet again, it's back to 0 ...??
can anyone please tell my why (-10) - (10) equals 0 ??

Have you tried this?
else if(ke.KeyCode == Keys.Left)<br />
{<br />
AutoScrollPosition.X += 10;<br />
}<br />
else if(ke.KeyCode == Keys.Right)<br />
{<br />
AutoScrollPosition.X -= 10)<br />
}

Does anyone know how i can use the GetCursorInfo API in C#? I'd like to know the dllimport and an example code.
Click here to view the GetCursorInfo API.

You have to recreate the sturct and ref that in your P/Invoked statement:
public struct CursorInfo
{
public int size;
public int flags;
IntPtr cursor;
System.Drawing.Point point;
}
[DllImport("user32.dll", CharSet=CharSet.Auto)]
public static extern bool GetCursorInfo(ref CursorInfo info);

Thanks for the quick reply but i'd like to know how to use it too. I'd like to know how to get the cursor image (or icon) using GetCursorInfo.

It's all in the documentation on MSDN. I suggest you read it. There's examples, too. Always consult the docs for questions like this, when asking "what is X" or "how does Y" work, otherwise you're just grabbing at straws and guessing, which doesn't build any skills. I don't mean to sound rude, but researching is half the development battle, and these questions are exactly what the Windows API functions, .NET class library, and other documentation is for. Besides, it'd be a waste of time to essentially copy and paste the topic you want. Just type GetCursorInfo in the index and you've got what you want. As far as managed code goes, however, read on...
If all you're trying to do is read-in a cursor image, then you need to look at the Cursor class. It's better to use managed code than to start needlessly P/Invoking stuff from the Win32 API. It has everything you apparently need to read-in a cursor and display it (either as the mouse cursor or a bitmap (with some fiddling) such as a preview pic).

I'm aware of that. The thing is, i don't understand how to use GetCursorInfo. I just need some help in getting the cursor image which is vital for my program, that's all. Anyway, i'll try reading again.

If all you want is the cursor image to draw on a surface or something, the Cursor class documentation provides all the information you need - no P/Invoke is necessary. As I said, use managed code whenever possible.
See Cursor.Current and Cursor.Draw():
Cursor c = Cursor.Current;
Graphics g = this.myControl.CreateGraphics();
c.Draw(g, this.myControl.Bounds);
g.Dispose();

No, i just need to know the name of the cursor whether it is a normal cursor showing or wait cursor showing - system-wide (not just within the current form). From my understanding, if you use Cursor.Current, you can only get the name of the cursor that is showing within the form. If the cursor moves outside of the form, the name of the cursor will not be changed.
