Re: ProcessDialogKey and AppDomain zilch15-Mar-04 13:09 zilch 15-Mar-04 13:09  i changed form.Show() in the plugin to Application.Run( form ) and now it works. That, I call magic. why does it work now? i don't see the connection, but then again win32 message loops are not my strong side Re: ProcessDialogKey and AppDomain gratajik31-Jan-11 13:38 gratajik 31-Jan-11 13:38  Did you ever resolve this? We have a plugin system that really needs to be in a separate AppDomain, but when we place the plugin (which is a form) in its own AppDomain, ProcessDialogKey is never being called.

I'm not sure what you mean by hide the taskbar from the app ... if you mean don't show your app in the taskbar, you can use myForm.ShowInTaskbar = false;. If you mean make the taskbar invisible, you'll probably have to P/Invoke the Win32 API once again. --------------------------- He who knows that enough is enough will always have enough. -Lao Tsu Re: Task Bar Stefan Troschuetz15-Mar-04 9:51 Stefan Troschuetz 15-Mar-04 9:51  I think the following fits much better than SendMessage. The code shows declaration and usage. [System.Runtime.InteropServices.DllImport("user32.dll")] public static extern bool ShowWindow(int wndHandle, int nCmdShow); ShowWindow(wndHandle, 3); To set other window states than maximized read the help of the ShowWindow method in the Platform-SDK. The define-values which are mentioned there, can be found in Winuser.h. Re: Task Bar Heath Stewart15-Mar-04 10:01 Heath Stewart 15-Mar-04 10:01  Another way is to set Form.Bounds to SystemInformation. Also set Form.FormBorderStyle to FormBorderStyle.None. This will draw your window over top of the task bar. Note that this requires no P/Invoked calls directly, while the underlying effect is the same as other full-screen applications (including screen savers) that you see, since pretty much all the controls (including the Form class) encapsulates native APIs for Windows Management and Common Controls.   Microsoft MVP, Visual C# My Articles regd dataset karteek15-Mar-04 6:46 karteek 15-Mar-04 6:46  Hi, I have a dataset object and I am filling it with the rows of a table.Now I assigned it to a datagrid object.I don't know the schema of the table.Now I want the schema of the table and the data type of each attribute in the schema.How do I get this? Karteek Re: regd dataset Heath Stewart15-Mar-04 6:56 Heath Stewart 15-Mar-04 6:56  You can't get the schema from the DataGrid like you're probably hoping. You could construct an XmlDocument (or use an XmlTextWriter) to build a schema while enumerating through the tables and column definitions, but the easiest way is to create a typed DataSet by adding a new DataSet schema to your project and designing the desired schema in there. VS.NET can generate a typed DataSet class (with actual table and column names, as well as the proper column types and fewer look-ups). You can use this to bind more easily to a DataGrid. At the very least - if you don't want to use the actual typed DataSet - you'll have a schema that you can use for DataSet.ReadXmlSchema for a generic DataSet instance. To bind to a DataGrid, though, you really don't need to know the schema in advance. You can always set the DataGrid.DataSource property to the DataSet instance (filled) and optionally set the DataMember to myDataSet.Tables[0].TableName. By default, columns are generated automatically. If you know the schema up-front - you don't even have to import any schema - you can pre-set the DataGrid.DataMember property to the table name and add a DataGridTableStyle to DataGrid.TableStyles that uses the same table name. Optionally, you can add various DataGridColumnStylesd to the associated DataGridTableStyle.GridColumnStyles collection property and set DataGrid.AutoGenerateColumns to false. See the documentation for any one of the mentioned classes and / or properties for more information and examples.   Microsoft MVP, Visual C# My Articles cached dll's cmarmr15-Mar-04 6:04 cmarmr 15-Mar-04 6:04  ok i have a web page (csharp) and i calles a .dll written in foxpro to retrive information from a foxpro database but the problem is it caches the .dll and the database and any changes made outside of the webpage never get picked up by the webpag it looks at its cached copy of the database instead of going out and regetting the information is there a way i can force it out of cache when i'm finished using it chad Re: cached dll's Heath Stewart15-Mar-04 6:20 Heath Stewart 15-Mar-04 6:20  How are you caching it? Is the FoxPro code caching it? Surely there's settings or calls you can make to set up caching or even to disable it. If you're using the Page.Cache property, you should set up a CacheDepedency to invalidate it. There's also many other caching techniques for ASP.NET described in the .NET Framework SDK, as well as various articles in the ASP.NET Technical Articles[^] on MSDN. If this doesn't quite answer your question, please be more specific about how you or your code is caching objects, and what is actually being cached.   Microsoft MVP, Visual C# My Articles Re: cached dll's Heath Stewart15-Mar-04 6:22 Heath Stewart 15-Mar-04 6:22  Also, if it's caching the DLL, this should not be a problem. It's only loading and keeping the DLL in memory. The data being cached is the problem here. Either FoxPro is caching data, your DLL is caching data, or ASP.NET is caching data. If you actually change the ASP.NET web site (like recompiling or changing the Web.config file in the application's root directory), the web application is forced to restart, which will reload the DLL.   Microsoft MVP, Visual C# My Articles Re: cached dll's cmarmr15-Mar-04 7:08 cmarmr 15-Mar-04 7:08  its the web page cacheing the dll i use the dll for other programs and i don't have this cacheing proble and like you said i don't care if its cacheing the dll i care becasue its cacheing the database file chad Re: cached dll's Heath Stewart15-Mar-04 7:15 Heath Stewart 15-Mar-04 7:15  The DLL is supposed to be cached for faster execution. Keep in mind that your web application using ASP.NET is an instance of an application with many threads that runs until 1) it changes and requires a restart, which the ASP.NET worker process does automatically, 2) you stop IIS, or 3) you shutdown/restart the server. If your database is being cached, then either your DLL is causing the problem and should not cache data (in which case, it sounds like it's not multi-threaded and isn't expecting many requests from different threads) or you are not closing connections to your database. In either case, I'm pretty sure this is not the fault of ASP.NET. You're going to have to examine your DLL and make sure that it can handle multiple requests on different threads (I know FoxPro can, but it's been over a decade since I've worked with it so I can't help you there much) and that it doesn't cache data - at least not globally (i.e., for all threads).   Microsoft MVP, Visual C# My Articles Re: cached dll's cmarmr15-Mar-04 8:34 cmarmr 15-Mar-04 8:34  ok i checked the dll and it closes the connection but it seems like it's iis cacheing the dll and dbf because i worte a test.dll just to see and all it dose is when i call it it give me the first record in the database and closes the database but if i change the database outside of the web page it never pickes up those changes unless like you said i restart iis or restart my computer( i even tryed it as a webservice and it still gets cached) but when i use the dll on its own not in a webpage or webservice it works fine thanks chad Re: cached dll's Heath Stewart15-Mar-04 11:34 Heath Stewart 15-Mar-04 11:34  IIS or ASP.NET won't cache non-executable code unless you tell it otherwise. Keep in mind that IIS and ASP.NET (depending on how your DLL is loaded - most likely ASP.NET) will keep your DLL in memory so your DLL should not "load" the DBF. There are OLE DB providers, for instance, that create a connection with the DBF using ADO.NET (see the System.Data.OleDb classes). If all you're doing is executing queries on the DBF, then what's the extra DLL for? If that contains business rules and you don't want to redevelop the code for .NET (and there's nothing wrong with that), then make sure it establishes a connection the DBF instead of loading it into memory itself without persistence writes to the file. I guess it would help more to understand what exactly this DLL is, in what it's written, and what you need it for. As I said though, IIS and ASP.NET would not load non-executable code into memory unless you tell it to (like I load an XML document into the cache in ASP.NET to build dynamic menus and have a cache dependency so that when the file changes the cache is invalidated and repopulated the next time the file is needed). If you're built an ISAPI library (in which case ASP.NET has nothing to do with it, but I add this for posterity), you can disable caching of extension handlers in the application configuration for a virtual application in IIS.   Microsoft MVP, Visual C# My Articles Re: cached dll's cmarmr15-Mar-04 15:16 cmarmr 15-Mar-04 15:16  this dll dose all my business rules and its very fast alot faster then if i did the same thing in csharp it access the dbf in the native visual foxpro language retrives the information it need to do my calculations updated and fields that need updating then closes the files and returns me a value how to i force iis or asp.net to flush its cache because i know it one of them doing it when i test this from other apps. it works fine and it picks up my changes chad w95 application Rob Tomson15-Mar-04 4:29 Rob Tomson 15-Mar-04 4:29  i have a boot disk that boots into 95 mode and brings me to the command prompt. i've made a console app in c# but when i run it it says 'cannot be run in dos mode'. what can i do to fix this? thanks, Rob Tomson -- There are 10 kinds of people.

Second, if you boot from a floppy disk on a supporting platform (like Win98), the CLR and the .NET Framework Class Library (FCL) at the very least must be loaded, and those definitely won't fit on a floppy disk. There's so many reasons why this won't work.

Any other reading materials? thx !! CODER Re: multiple workstations to one database Heath Stewart15-Mar-04 5:18 Heath Stewart 15-Mar-04 5:18  The easiest place to synchronize the request is by using locking in the RDBMS, such as the MSDE or SQL Server (in which case use the System.Data.SqlClient classes for better support). There are many locking features and many ways to lock queries, so see the SQL Server documentation for more information. You can search MSDN[^] (the one-stop place for most or your Windows development information) for documents that discuss the differences between Java and C#. Keep in mind, however, that C# is just one of many languages that target the CLR. While languages differ in syntax and support of some features of the CLR, they can all access assemblies (including the FCL) written in any other managed language. So the differences you're looking for are between Java (the JVM) and .NET (the CLR), not just C#. The runtimes are completely separate, though they share common ideas like JIT'ing, garbage collection, and other facilities that OO runtimes utilize.   Microsoft MVP, Visual C# My Articles folder path syntax?

Dave Kreskowiak15-Mar-04 7:05 Dave Kreskowiak 15-Mar-04 7:05  Most of the Win32 API's and the .NET Framework functions will accept either. But, there are a couple of functions, like SetVolumeLabel, that require the trailing backslash. RageInTheMachine9532
