Change the number of Most Recently Used projects in the options dialog. The affects the list of projects in the file menu also.

Getting and Setting the Master and Wave Volume

How would I go about using the .NET Framework to get and set the Master and Wave Volume of the user's computer? Can it be done with .NET, or is Direct Sound required to do this? Any leads in the right direction would be appreciated.

Happy Programming and may God Bless!

You can P/Invoke waveOutSetVolume() to set the volume of a waveform audio output device.

[DllImport("winmm.dll")]
public static extern int waveOutSetVolume(IntPtr hwo, UInt32 dwVolume);

...
waveOutSetVolume(IntPtr.Zero, 0xFFFFFFFF);
...

This sets both channels of master volume to maximum.
For special target devices you might have to use other WaveOut-functions, but they're all documented in the platform SDK.

mav

hi friends,

heard that MTS is not supported in .NET Framework. I guess .NET framework supports COM+ runtime services so how come MTS is not supported ??

Hi ali

I guess your are using incorrect version of MTS.If you are using 2000 Professional surely i will not support for COM+.For deploying COM+ components use 2003 server or Latest version of MTS(Non NT flavour)

Are you sure? Windows 2000 Professional does have support for COM+, and .NET components can be published in the COM+ catalog using the System.EnterpriseServices namespace.

COM+ is "COM + MTS". MTS was introduced in NT 4.0, and became part of the COM+ services in Windows 2000.

COM+ is "COM + MTS". MTS was introduced in NT 4.0, and became part of the COM+ services in Windows 2000 under the MS DTC (distributed transaction coordinator).

So, NT MTS (version 1.0) is not supported, but 2000 COM+ (DTC) is.

I want to start a project in VisualC++, with VS .NET 2003. Is there any way to make the app work on a machine that has .NET framework not installed ? If not is there a VC++ (or higher) with no .NET ?

Yes. Just make sure you select one of the unmanaged project types, from the ATL, MFC or Win32 categories. Obviously you can't use any .NET features.

is there a default mail server reference string using .net. I have a little app that I send email on, but I want to ensure that it always obtains the correct mail server.

If there is not a default mail server, how would a person determine the mail server that is being used?

Thanks for the help

Performance trade-off

Hi,

Since assembly compiles in IL, the binary reusability paradigm introduced by COM is no longer alive.

Is an assembly a healthier substitute of classic COM infrastructure ??? There also lies a performance trade-off in using assemblies as they are JUST in TIME compiled while COM components are pre-compiled.

What are the major benefits of using assemblies over COM ?? I've never encountered DLL HELL issues then why should i use assemblies ??

Thanks,

Regards,
Hatim Ali.

Aren't you lucky.

If it concerns you that much why not just run the assemblies through ngen first and compile them in to a native format in advance.

According to Don Box .NET was originally called COM3

Determing if the network resource is being accessed

Hi,
I want to find out whether some application is trying to access the network resource like internet (HTTP,SMTP POP,FTP etc etc. –any sort of network resource usage) or any other network resource like mapped drives,VPN etc.
I want to capture this .

Secondly I want to determine which application is trying to access that resource.

Specifically in .NET , is there such support for firewall packet sniffing in .NET

Tarun

You will need to implement it yourself using WinSock layered providers, which is not an easy thing to implement

thanks, but what about how to manually generate a token for the public key?

Use Ctrl+Left/Right to switch messages, Ctrl+Up/Down to switch threads, Ctrl+Shift+Left/Right to switch pages.
