I'm having difficulty getting the Microsoft Application Block for Exception Management working. In particular, I'm trying to customize the DefaultPublisher so that it uses a custom log source in the EventLog.
Here are some of my constraints, many of which I've overcome.
1) I wanted the assembly deployed to the GAC so that more than one app could share it.
2) My apps are web apps, so I had to deal with security issues regarding getting a custom log source set up.
OK, so I created my strong names for the ExceptionManagement and Interfaces assemblies, and got both installed to the GAC. No problem. I used the INSTALLUTIL.EXE to run the custom installer for the ExceptionManagement assembly.
So far so good. I manually created the registry key and string value for my log source.
Next, I set up the web.config file. Here's the way I had it set up the first time:
<configSections>
<section name="exceptionManagement" type="Microsoft.ApplicationBlocks.ExceptionManagement.ExceptionManagerSectionHandler, Microsoft.ApplicationBlocks.ExceptionManagement" />
</configSections>
<exceptionManagement>
<publisher assembly="Microsoft.ApplicationBlocks.ExceptionManagement" type="Microsoft.ApplicationBlocks.ExceptionManagement.DefaultPublisher"
logName="Application" applicationName="My App Log Source" />
</exceptionManagement>
Now when I generated an exception, several were logged using my custom log source, including several that it was unable to find the type for the section handler. Well, I figured out that it was because I had an assembly in the GAC and hadn't fully qualified the names.
So I fixed the web.config to be:
<configSections>
<section name="exceptionManagement" type="Microsoft.ApplicationBlocks.ExceptionManagement.ExceptionManagerSectionHandler,Microsoft.ApplicationBlocks.ExceptionManagement, System, Version=1.0.1404.32518, PublicKeyToken=d16c1e31f52ae760, Culture=neutral" />
</configSections>
<exceptionManagement>
<publisher assembly="Microsoft.ApplicationBlocks.ExceptionManagement"
type="Microsoft.ApplicationBlocks.ExceptionManagement.DefaultPublisher, System,
Version=1.0.1404.32518, PublicKeyToken=d16c1e31f52ae760, Culture=neutral" logName="Application" applicationName="My App Log Source" />
</exceptionManagement>
Well, now to the point I'm at now. I get an internal exception that has the following detail. I'm at wits end! Any help would greatly be appreciated!!!
Thanks,
Andy

I'm using the callback function of RASDIAL (RASAPI32.DLL). It works just perfect: The RASDIAL call returns immediately and my callback function is called numerous times to process the progress/error messages. In order to wait for the successful connection, I wrote a WHILE-loop in my main class to wait for the "Connected" message. That's where I'm having problems: the Application.DoEvents() in my WHILE-loop causes a System.NullReferenceException followed by message telling me that there is no source code available at the current position. I learned that the DoEvents call is for single-threaded programming and I guess that the RasDial callback function probably introduces multiple threads. I found a workaround by using a Timer without DoEvents() but then I find myself left in the Timer-Event to go on with my app. Summary: I WANT TO USE DoEVENTS() or something equivalent! Can someone please help me out?
private void btnRasConnect_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e) {
ras = new Dialup.RASDisplay();
uint retCode = ras.Connect(""); // RasDial with callback
if(retCode != 0) {
ras.DisplayRasError(retCode);
} else {
string tmpString = ras.GetLastMessage();
while((!tmpString.StartsWith("ERROR:")) &&
(tmpString != "Connected") &&
(tmpString != "Disconnected")) {
Application.DoEvents(); // **** causes abort in unknow module
tmpString = ras.GetLastMessage();
}
}
return;

I'm starting an application with Managed C++ with windows Forms. I know how change the current Culture and since this action every resouces that open take the new Culture Value( System::Threading::CurrentThread::CurrentUICulture = new Globalization::CultureInfo (String * IdCulture) (...) )
OK that's right, but what happens with the Main Form that is Loaded since the start of execution?
Can I do a Reload or something like that, by anyway, or assing dinamically another ResX File to the MainForm for translate it without Close()?
Thanks gurus, I expect your answers

You can't change the locale of a form once it is loaded. You have to create a new instance of the form with the new locale.
If you are really slick you could copy the original form, but with the new locale, and use the transparency set to 0. Once everything is in place you can fade it in over the old form, then remove the old form - This would be so nice from a UI perspective - no flicker of changing forms and a really obvious but subtle change occurs.

OK, Colin. It works.
Thank you very much.;)

You got the fade-in effect to work too? If that's the case then excellent work. If not then I'm glad you got a working solution.
Regards,
Colin.

what is the cleanest way of dealing with memory-mapped files within .Net?
Looking for a way to port a large library code that makes heavy use of memory-mapped files.
Any pointers would be appreciated. Thanks.

Chen,
From what I've read, you'll have to wrap the Win32API calls yourself and probably make use of Unsafe code in your application to get this working.
Memory Mapped Files are not directly supported in .NET ...

I like to get help for the below sql statement.
I use two oledb connection objects to connect to 2 different sqlserver - DB's.
NewSQL = insert into sample "(SELECT * from sample1)
In the above "insert" statement the table 'sample' belongs to one conn-object and table 'sample1' belongs to another conn-object.
can anyone give me the solution.
thankyou

You cannot use two connections in one SQL statement in .NET. The SQL statement goes in one Command object, which is attached to one connection.
I am assuming you are using SQL Server 6.5 or previous (otherwise you should really be using a SqlConnection and not an OleDbConnection)
I am assuming this is not a one time operation. There are better solutions for copying data between two databases than this.
Okay - A solution (note: I didn't say "THE solution", just "A solution")...
Create a data reader to suck out the data from sample1. On each Read() iteration create an insert command to inject a record into sample.
Another solution may be, and I say "may be" because I've never tried it, to use a fully qualified table name: server_name.database_name.owner_name.table_name
I hope this helps.

Another possible solution to do this is to create and use data VIEWS. Simply create a view that combines data from the two SQL servers, and then query agains it.

Hi All,
I am into webdevelopment with ASP, .NET and stuffs. I am running my PC with XP OS. Can I maintain the same ot shall I change to 2000 Adv Server?
The problem here is I cant run SQL server 2000 with full server option.
Please suggest me... to be or not to be with XP?? I have plans to go for the 2003 server later (after 6 months)

My dev box has Windows XP with IIS and the developer version of SQL server installed for tests and sample projects. Real projects run off our Windows 2000 Server (not advanced) box with SQL server installed. Our hosting boxes are also Windows 2000 Server and they work fine.
Remember you can run SQL server on a non-server Windows installation if you have the developer edition.

I dont have it, thats the problem. So, I prefer to go for the Server 2000 as you said... may be 2003 some days later (its not right time for me. I would experiment with the 2003 with some one else PC in the office, and then give it a try to my PC  )
Thanks.
I dont know how this will help the CP people - I got 500.100 internal server error when I was trying to reply your message. I got that over only after 3 try.

If it's just for your development machine, take this route ...
Download the MSDE 2000 SQL Desktop engine from Microsoft's site for free MSDE 2000[^]
Following that, you can then download a new GUI front-end, if you feel the need for such things, like this one MSDEGUI[^] that was developed by Christian Graus here at CP.

I use the 1clickfreedb - a utility - i guess again posted in CP.
I would give a try with the utility you had specified, and try to grasp something out of it...

My superiors have recently asked me a question regarding the .NET framework, raising concerns about installing it on client machines running Windows 98, NT, Win2K machines. They want to know how we, as a company, can go about testing said framework for compatibility issues. They wanted assurances that installing the framework on these machines, wouldn't disrupt or cause other applications, not using the .NET framework, to fail, or for Windows itself to fail.
Since I obviously cannot answer these questions, despite having super mind reading powers and the ability to see into the future  , I thought I'd ask the great CP community to share your experience(s).
Any of you run into any "real" problems installing the framework? Has the framework itself caused any PC to just STOP working? If so, did you figure out why? Any issues with other, non .NET, applications?
I'm going to take the information provided and build some kind of an "FAQ" or Trouble shooting guide, so real problems and solutions would be great; and I'll gladly share that combined information with anyone wanting it.
Thank you,
D.

I had no problems after installing .NET with Framework on XP system. I have .NET and Visual 6 both are working sepatately not causing any troubles.
One thing you can call "trouble makeing" when running VC6 applications under .NET is use of some "old" functions. You'll get assert for example calling IsDigit with char less than 0 (some national signs). There was no such an assert in VC6.

The .NET Framework is a relatively self-contained system. Upon installation, it modifies Windows' executable loader to recognize .NET executables, sets up the Global Assembly Cache as a part of the OS, and adds & modifies some IIS stuff (if present).
Long story short - I've never seen a .NET installation break a Windows box. It just doesn't modify that much stuff that other programs already depend upon.

I set DataSource for ListBox in my WindowForm by calling set_DataSource and everything is ok. Then I add some data to my data source table and want list box to refresh it's data but nothing works. When I call Hide, then Show methods of ListBox it works but that's very stupid method.
I'm quite new to .NET Framework classes and used to do this in MFC.
