Thanks for the insight.
I admit I've never had to build something that large. It's usually been broken in 3 layers:
1. Generic Toolkit (reusable across applications, continually growing)
2. Application Toolkit (reusable within the application, sometimes extending Generic)
3. Application classes (usually extending the Application toolkit)

Hey Guys!
I am currently working on a Project, but now facing a problem  in how to Monitor a Specific port for Data that is going from my computer to the outer world. E.g. I want to monitor port 'xyz' to check what is goind outside from my computer through this port.
Can anybody help me to solve this problem.

Download WinPcap and the associated Analyzer from http://winpcap.polito.it/[^]. You can also use Ethereal (port from *nix), but that still requires the WinPcap library (which, in case you're wondering, is partly founded by Microsoft so it's pretty safe and it is a common lib to find IT-folk using).

In Command-Mode (in VS.NET) I entered (after a breakpoint):
sLine.IndexOf("\"OPEN\",\"OPEN\"")
and got:
error: 'sLine.IndexOf' does not exist
why that?
sLine got a value as
string sLine="blabla";

When you opened the Command Windows and typed sLine.IndexOf("\"OPEN\",\"OPEN\""), was it after a > prompt? If so, this is your problem. You can make evaluations in Command Mode, but you can't execute code. You have to switch to Immediate Mode first by issuing the immed command.
...Open a Command Window to Ctrl-Alt-A...
Command Window
>immed
sLine.IndexOf("\"OPEN\",\"OPEN\"");

no that is not the problem. I am in the immed-mode.
I get the value of
sLine<br />
sLine.Length
but not of any method of sLine like
sLine.IndexOf(..)<code><br />
<br />
<br />

I don't have that problem at all. Are you sure sLine is a String?

I have a c++ application that needs to retrieve information from my company's server. I decided to build a c# webservice. So far it works fine. I need to add some security since I pass userid and password. But my main concern is that this webservice will only be used by our applications and I don't want it to be public to others, so that they cannot view the schema and cannot see the page that shows how to make a HTTP GET/POST and SOAP request.
Is there a way to make the webservice not available to public ? or at least hide the schema/request pages ?
|
|
|
|

If you're looking to add security to your web services, take a look at the Microsoft Web Service Enhancements (WSE)[^]. 2.0 was recently released. With a few simple changes to your server and clients, you can use strong authentication protocols (or a simple username/password, though I recommend at least hashing the password using MD5 or SHA1, which is easily supported by the WSE), encryption, signatures, addressing (routing), etc.
If you want it private, simply don't expose it to the public. Unless it needs to be on your Internet web server, just use it on your intranet. If you need to put it on your Internet server (say, for an extranet) then use IP address blocking (IIS feature) or features in the WSE. The latter won't prevent them from seeing the WSDL, but unless your business is about the WSDL schema and not the data that's transferred, this really shouldn't be a problem.

The client application is built under VC++ 6.0. So, for now I am using sockets to connnect and retrieve the information. I was thinking about using SSL socket. I think there are some examples on codeproject.

The client application is a Windows application that access the service through the Internet. It connects to our company's Web server and retrieve some data to process/display. My main concern is that service should only be available to the client applications and not to the public. If I could hide the shema returned when you point a browser to the .asmx file, that would be a good start. Then there is the ?WSDL.
It looks like there is no easy way and will have to write a .ASP page which does basically the same thing. The problem is returning the XML code, with a webservice it's all very easy.
Possible solution: Have the .ASP page call the webservice, which would not be public, and simple return the data. The .ASP would just act as a bridge between client and webservice.

Everything from handling requests to .asmx?WSDL to generating the WSDL itself (as well as the "human-readable" HTML output for a service) is configurable. Spend some time reading the class library documentation for the System.Web.Services and child namespaces.

Here's what I found:
Since this webservice will only be used by some client applications that already knows the schema, to hide the documentation of the web service, there is a key that can be set in the web.config file.
<br />
<?xmlversion="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?><br />
<<configuration><br />
<system.web><br />
<!--<br />
HIDE THE DOCUMENTATION FOR THE WEB SERVICE<br />
--><br />
<webServices><br />
<protocols><br />
<remove name="Documentation"/><br />
</protocols><br />
</webServices><br />
</system.web><br />
</configuration><br />
|
|
|
|
|
You can also set a custom page to be displayed for the WSDL documentation:
<?xmlversion="1.0"encoding="utf-8"?>
<configuration>
<system.web>
<!--
Custome help page\
-->
<webServices>
<wsdlHelpGeneratorhref="helpPage.aspx"/>
</webService>
</system.web>
</configuration>
It can also be a .html page. So you can display what ever you want.
A third possibility is to process the request from Application_BeginRequest function. You can check if the request has a ?wsdl to it and throw a http exception.
All these examples can be found here: http://www.15seconds.com/issue/040609.htm

is there any way to promote programatically a directory
(located within inetpub directory subtree) to web application?
Also I would like programatically add new IASPI mapping
(for some custom file extension to particular DLL)
for this newly created web application.
Thanks for help

You can do both programmatically using either the IIS WMI provider or the ADSI provider.
For the WMI provider, use the System.Management classes, and for the ADSI provider use the System.DirectoryServices classes.
Try the following google search for lots of examples or refine it to find exactly what you want. Documentation for the IIS WMI and ADSI providers can be found on MSDN[^].

Hi EveryBody,
I used the later code to handle some messages sent to my application
and it works, but my question is how to handle messages sent for child applications of my application(parent)
<br />
[System.Security.Permissions.PermissionSet(System.Security.Permissions.SecurityAction.Demand, Name="FullTrust")]<br />
protected override void WndProc(ref Message m)<br />
{<br />
switch (m.Msg)<br />
{<br />
<br />
case WM_SIZING:<br />
MessageBox.Show("Sizing");<br />
return ;<br />
case WM_SIZE:<br />
MessageBox.Show("Size");<br />
if(m.WParam==(IntPtr)SIZE_MINIMIZED)<br />
MessageBox.Show("SIZE_MINIMIZED");<br />
else if(m.WParam==(IntPtr)SIZE_MAXIMIZED)<br />
MessageBox.Show("SIZE_MAXIMIZED");<br />
return;<br />
<br />
case SW_MAXIMIZE:<br />
MessageBox.Show("SW_MAXIMIZE");<br />
return;<br />
<br />
case WM_MOVING:<br />
MessageBox.Show("Moving");<br />
return;<br />
}<br />
base.WndProc(ref m);<br />
}<br />
<br />
Please I need a very fast help.
Thank you .

Child applications? There's no such thing. Are you talking about child Windows or MDIChildren? Each form has it's own message pump. Your parent form will not get the messages meant for child forms.

Dave's right about the message pump. Some controls will send their parents messages, and these are documented in the Platform SDK (almost every control in Windows Forms encapsulates Windows Common Controls).
There is another way, though. Implement the IMessageFilter interface and add an instance of your implementation using Application.AddMessageFilter. This installs a message filter for the application's message pump, which will trap messages and allow you to process them (or even remove them) before dispatching them to their destination windows.

I can serialize my class with xmlserializer.
but when i add a DataTable typed property to my class, xmlserializer submit an error to me.
please guide to me.

We need the error mesage you're getting. We also need to know how your adding this DataTable to your class. Some code snippets would help alot.
Without these items, it's impossible to tell you what your doing wrong.

I creat a component that have a collection object.
when i use this component on my form, and fill collection and save form, the collection`s contetnt not save into form`s resource.
please guide to me.
|
|
|
|

If by "form's resource" you mean the ResX file, then you have to use a CodeDomSerializer derivative that uses the System.Resources namespace classes.
If you want to simple serialize the collection to code in your .cs source file, then just use the DesignerSerializationVisibilityAttribute:
[DesignerSerializationVisibility(DesignerSerializationVisibility.Content)]
public MyCollection MyObjects
{
}That's it.
If you want custom serialization, again extend CodeDomSerializer. If all you want is to serialize a collection like a ComboBox would for items, for example, then just use the attribute and enumeration value I mentioned above.

Hello.
Thank you very much for your guiding. it is very interest.
I use "[DesignerSerializationVisibility(DesignerSerializationVisibility.Content)]" in a collection that contain "int" data type and it is ok. But when i use this attribute for a collection that contain a class or struct , it is not work , mean that the contect of content class of collection not save in form code.
please guide to me again, very very thank you.
