That's why I asked. I can't see a reason to block, and the example I posted shows the Main method of a console app creating a thread that blocks.
It's a typical stupid MSDN example, but I thought I'd ask anyhow.
Thanks

I guess it's difficult to produce a meaningful real-world example that doesn't end up with the concept you're trying to demonstrate buried in unrelated implementation details. 
You just need to imagine that the task is an async method, calling an API that's only available via asynchronous task-returning methods. The Main thread is synchronous, so you're going to have to block at some point to wait for the API calls to complete.

we know that in factory design patter we do not create object of any class directly rather create instance of a class by factory class.
The client is an object that requires an instance
of another object (the product) for some purpose. Rather than creating the
product instance directly, the client delegates this responsibility to the factory.
Once invoked, the factory creates a new instance of the product,
passing it back to the client. Put simply, the client uses the
factory to create an instance of the product.
i read this article https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee817667.aspx?f=255&MSPPError=-2147217396
i am looking for a write up on factory design patter which show me when i need to create instance by factory because we can create instance directly but in factory design pattern instance create via factory. so what is the significance of factory design patter.
so if anyone search google there is many article exist on factory design pattern but i do not find any article which tell me scenario when i will not create instance directly rather will create instance via factory.
so please tell me few scenario with example code from where i can see when people would not prefer creating instance of any class directly rather will create instance via factory.
thanks

A nice idea would be to create a factory if there are more than a single class than can be used to perform the action.
Simple and usefull example can be found in the DbProviderFactory. Instead of programming against the SqlConnection and SqlCommand, you program against the interfaces IDbConnection and IDbCommand. Next, let the factory decide which actual class to create. That way the user can configure suddenly whether to use the SqlConnection, an OracleConnection, or something completely different.
Another nice idea for factories is that they can also be combined with the Object Pool Pattern. See the TaskFactory for a nice example of that.
It's similar to the strategy-pattern, with the difference that a factory is for creating objects.

thanks for nice answer. can you please include a article link sir which show how i can use DbProviderFactory to connect sql server ,oracle, oldedb or use dsn to connect any db.

I assume Google is broken for you. Seriously, you have been posting on this site long enough to indicate that you are meant to be a professional programmer. Part of being a professional programmer is having the ability to do research for yourself.

A simple example of using DbProviderFactory can be found here[^]. Since you already worked with databases I'm going to assume that you'll recognize most parts; note that we ask the Factory to create a connection for us, instead of creating one ourself.
The factory can also create IDbCommands, but I prefer to use the factory-method that is provided in the IDbConnection-interface. Details on the class can be found on MSDN[^].
The factory does NOT make your code database vendor-independant - it just makes it easier to switch between those classes. Your C# code would no longer depend on a specific implementation, but chances are that you are using an SQL dialect that is specific to the database-server. Stick to SQL92 if you want to minimize the risc of incompatibilities.

I'm trying to load a config file from a location other than the app.
// Get the full path and name of the app's Config file.
var configFileName = AppDomain.CurrentDomain.SetupInformation.ConfigurationFile;
This returns '.....\bin\Debug\OQRangeDataInput.exe.Config', which is correct
Then I do this to load the config file
_configuration = ConfigurationManager.OpenExeConfiguration(configFileName);
The next line, the OpenExeConfigation sets a property on the Configuration called FilePath which is set to '.....\bin\Debug\OQRangeDataInput.exe.Config.config'
this is clearly wrong.
I had to add this right after the first line to fix it
configFileName = configFileName.ToLower().Replace(".config", "");
So, all told, I now have this
private void LoadConfigFile()
{
var configFileName = AppDomain.CurrentDomain.SetupInformation.ConfigurationFile;
configFileName = configFileName.ToLower().Replace(".config", "");
_configuration = ConfigurationManager.OpenExeConfiguration(configFileName);
AppConfigFile = configFileName;
}
Anyone see what's wrong? Is this some kind of bug, or am I just doing it wrong?
Thanks

Have a look at the documentation:
exePath: The path of the executable (exe) file.
The method expects you to pass the path of OQRangeDataInput.exe, not the path of the config file you want to open.

Well there ya go!!
I was using "AppDomain.CurrentDomain.SetupInformation.ConfigurationFile" because if the Config file doesn't exist I create it.
Thanks!

I've recently read about the Inversion of Control (IOC) principle and I have a few questions I'd like to have answered. I've read that in order to implement the principle of IOC, one must not define a class and pass in concrete objects as its constructor's parameters but one must instead use interfaces as its constructor's parameters.
My first question is can I implement IOC by defining a class with virtual classes as its constructor's parameters instead of interfaces. After all the whole reason behind using interfaces is to decouple the class from its dependencies and virtual classes can pretty much do that.
My second question is can I use abstract classes as the parameters instead of interfaces.
Thanks in advance for your reply.

C# doesn't support the concept of virtual classes so, in the context of this forum, the first part of your question makes no sense.
With regards to using abstract classes, yes you can. Only a very poor IoC framework wouldn't support them but there are things to consider. First of all, we tend to prefer composition over inheritance nowadays, so an abstract base class would be a violation of that principal. Versioning an interface is difficult to do, so if you need to inject something that is version aware, you should consider using an abstract class in that case.

Hi thanks for replying. I meant to say a generic class that has virtual methods or methods that take generic types T.
|
|
|
|
|
Again, you can pass in a generic class to most IoC containers. As soon as you introduce virtual methods, you are getting back to the argument about preferring composition over inheritance again.

I'd like to add to Pete's correct answer that your question actually deals with two concepts: the inversion of control on one hand, and abstraction on the other hand.
The abstraction is the part where it comes to (abstract) base classes or better interfaces instead of concrete classes: you can use many other concrete implementations later on.
The inversion of control principle is about the question of how to get a class one depends on. If A requires a B for some tasks, it is not the responsibility of A to create B, rather someone else should provide B for A (inject a B into A). While that can be done also with a concrete definition of B, a more abstract definition (see above) is preferred.

I don't believe IOC excludes "constructors with concrete objects"; it's simply another method of "dependency injection"; which is one of the functions of "IOC".

IOC does not preclude specifying concrete classes as parameter to be injected in the constructor, although some IOC container implementations my not support this.
The IOC container is basically a super factory that can provide instances of classes or interfaces that have been registered with the IOC container or that the container can determine how to build. The Munq IOC Container, for example, can instantiate concrete classes even if they have not been registered, as long as all of the constructor parameters can be provided from the IOC Container.
In most IOC Containers, you can register a class that, implements either an Interface or a Base Class, to be provided when either the Interface or Base Class is requested.
This means your code now says "I need an instance of class X and I don't care or want to know how to build it, just give it to me" rather than "I need an instance of class X so I'll build up all itsdependencies, and their dependencies to do that. God help me if the dependency hierarchy changes".

In a C# Windows Application Project, On Checking both 2 Check Boxes, a Button Should be Enabled, If any one is Unchecked, Button should be Disabled. Presently ON Form_Load The Same Button should be Disabled.This is working fine.Project Done using Visual Studio 2012.
Please Help me Someone

Handle the CheckBox.CheckChanged event: CheckBox.CheckedChanged Event (System.Windows.Forms)[^] - you can use the same handler for both boxes - and check the Checked status of each to set the Enabled property of the button:
myTextBox.Enabled = checkbox1.Checked && checkbox2.Checked;
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

Where is your code, what have you done so far?
Relatively simple all you need it to manage the FormLoad and checkbox events.
