Re: Use remoting to invoke a remote method Judah Gabriel Himango3-Mar-04 12:49 Judah Gabriel Himango 3-Mar-04 12:49  You're the 2nd person to recommend something from Ingo Rammer. Fortunately my boss decided to buy his remoting book. Yeah his FAQ helped, If you use client activated objects, events or delegates you will quite likely encounter one of the following exceptions when running on the .NET Framework 1.1: System.Security.SecurityException. *Type System.DelegateSerializationHolder and the types derived from it (such as System.DelegateSerializationHolder) are not permitted to be deserialized at this security level. *System.Runtime.Serialization.SerializationException Because of security restrictions, the type System.Runtime.Remoting.ObjRef cannot be accessed. Well that explains the exception I'm getting. Thanks for the pointer. --------------------------- He who knows that enough is enough will always have enough. -Lao Tsu Re: Use remoting to invoke a remote method Tom Larsen3-Mar-04 11:05 Tom Larsen 3-Mar-04 11:05  Doing Deligates across application domains is difficult. Doing Deligates across Remoted app domains is nearly impossible. Consider the basic network setup: a firewall on your end (if you don't have a firewall, why not?!) and a firewall on the Server end. Your machine passes through your firewall and hits the Server firewall on port 80 (using Http for an easy example, but it is a problem on any port) and forwards the traffic to the real machine "Server". The Client signs up for an event on the server through an exposed deligate/event. The event happens but how does the Server cross the firewall on your end to contact your machine? Sure you can forward ports but that only works for you machine. If you have many machines behind your firewall all trying to access the Server all wanting to use the deligate, then you are sunk because the Server has no idea how to initiate a connection to your machine. If you are on an open network (say an intranet) and all computers are peer-to-peer you might have a chance. You have to shift your strategy from a client-to-server to a double client-to-server. Your client contacts the server. The server in turn becomes a "client" broadcasting the event to your client's "server". I personally would avoid using deligates/events across remoted application domains. It generates overhead an complicates transations (what happens if your client crashes but the server fires an event?). I would try to isolate all deligates/events on one side or the other of the remoted application domains. The key here is to make a design that is clean. When your application straddles application domains you need to keep the application domains "clean" or you introduce instability in one side or the other. Limiting window movement sixefftee3-Mar-04 9:16 sixefftee 3-Mar-04 9:16  Background of my goal: I've been asked to simulate a mdi in a mdi to do this i'm trying to limit a user from moving a form beyond the bounds of what will be considered the a main form (keep in mind the parent is not mdi just and owner and it has to be that way) My desire: I want limit a windows movement to an area i set in code. I been able to do this by set the location property when it hits a boundary but this causes a lot of flicking. I tried setting the capture property to false but that then the form snaps back to its orginal position before the move. So thats where i am. I either want to be able to stop the form from flicking or stop it from snapping back the orginal position. any help is greatly appreciated. Re: Limiting window movement John Fisher4-Mar-04 10:55 John Fisher 4-Mar-04 10:55  I've never tried to keep a window position from going too far to the top or the left, but the WM_GETMINMAXINFO message and the related MINMAXINFO structure were designed to limit sizing and maximized window positioning. Check that out. It may be the solution you need. John "You said a whole sentence with no words in it, and I understood you!" -- my wife as she cries about slowly becoming a geek. POP3 email monitor in c# gcwala3-Mar-04 9:05 gcwala 3-Mar-04 9:05  How do I get started in writing an application that monitors a POP3 email server. Which simple windows POP3 server can I download for free. This Email monitor is TCP/IP (usually tray) applications that notify the user if there is an email waiting on the mail server. The application uses POP3 protocol to check email in a specified time intervals. User is able to setup multiple accounts and view sender names, subjects, dates and message sizes. Program should have a spam control, and option to delete selected messages without downloading them from the server.

You can check it with win32 API if it is exist and its proper type (for example with GetDriveType() function) then simply give the path to it.

For example, i put a comment //WORKS on the part which works, so not checking it. Believeing that there is no more tricks, is like beliving that 2 + 2 is the only thing they teach us in math. Re: Advise for debugging Tom Larsen3-Mar-04 11:19 Tom Larsen 3-Mar-04 11:19  I believe someone wants a System.Diagnostics.FixIt class. Debugger tools are like any other tool: A hammer drives nails and it can help build a house but it doesn't do that for you automatically. I could tell you how to use the VS.Net Debugger but you'll never gleen the useful tactics and tricks to spot errors easily without actually doing it yourself. The .Net SDK comes with a debugger...its functional but lacks bells and whistles. The debugger in VS.Net works well enough. But it just spits out data for you to figure out. The rest is up to you to figure out. For general debugging behavior you should look at System.Diagnostics.Debugger and System.Diagnostics.Debug (or heck the System.Diagnostcis namespace). Raw Image to Bmp Image Alexsander Antunes3-Mar-04 5:44 Alexsander Antunes 3-Mar-04 5:44  I have un array of byte[] below: <br /> byte[] img = new byte[78000]<br /> ...<br /> Recept raw data from a fingerprint scanner<br /> ...<br /> This array contains the data of a image with 300 of height and 260 of width (total = 300 x 260 = 78000).

A Bitmap (as do all images) contain header information. This raw data does not. This is a similar situation with digital cameras and digital SLRs that can save RAW image data. They need to have a program that translates the RAW data into an image.   Microsoft MVP, Visual C# My Articles Re: Raw Image to Bmp Image Alexsander Antunes3-Mar-04 6:25 Alexsander Antunes 3-Mar-04 6:25  Where I have information about header of BMP images?

For an app I wrote I did something similar that extracts icons and I have to serialize these correctly using the chain of sturctures required. Believe me, you don't want to do that! As you saw in my other answer, .NET does provide a way to do this. You could always P/Invoke native APIs like CreateDIBitmap to accomplish this as well. These basically take minimal information and create and serialize the structures for your. I was about to answer that way when I found that you can't (easily) get a Bitmap from a handle and noticed the other constructor I've never cared to find before (that basically does the same thing I was going to mention with native APIs).   Microsoft MVP, Visual C# My Articles
