Hi all,
is dynamic loading of appDomains also work in compact framework .net ?
I have run example in dynamic loading in .net framework,
but since compact framework dont have AppDomainSetup Class,
so what can I do ?
The code in dynamic loading in .net framework is in
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dncscol/html/csharp05162002.asp
but when the port the code to compact framework, the code doesn't work coz AppDomainSetup Class is missing in .net CF.
Can anyone point to sample code or articles on it ?
Thanks

I'm not sure if this fits in the right category under C# Forum. It's a Web-FORM, but Code-Behind is C#.
Gurus, I've been having a bit of a problem.
I want to manipulate the strings that's return
from the database.
Here's the Scenario:-
Front-End ASPX page:-
<asp:dropdownlist id="DropDownList1" Runat="server" AutoPostBack="True">
Code-Behind in c#:- (Assume i populate it on PageLoad)
I'm using DataReader.Execute to read the info retrieve from DB. And let's say the query return 1 column. "FirstName".
DropDownList1.DataSource = dbCmd.ExecuteReader();
DropDownList1.DataTextField = "FirstName";
DropDownList1.DataTextField = "FirstName";
DropDownList1.DataBind();
Now, this works right off the box. It populates the dropdownlist. But, this is not exactly what I want. There are some results from "FirstName" column that I want to manipulate. How do I do that ? In other words, how do i manually tap into the reading loop ?
Any sample code would definately help.
Please advice. Thanks
Stanley

Three ways come to mind:
1. Change the query to return the data in the format you need it.
2. Retrieve the data in a DataSet (instead of a DataReader), manipulate the DataSet, and bind to that.
3. Loop through the DataReader and add the data manually to the drop down (DropDownList1.Items.Add).

Hi I've made a DLL because I want to use a library I'm developing many projects (Solutions) using it and since my library is still changing, I wouldn't like to change all my library files in every project when I want to modify my library.
So anyway, I made that dll, which works fine, and I added references to it in my projects, but now the default behaviour of VS.NET is to copy the dll in the local directory. But when they make a copy, the changes I make in my library doesn't apply in the directories in which it's been copied... (obviously).
So I'm wondering how to make this work out, I've tried to change the Copy Local property but I got the error message that says that the compiler can't find the reference...
Anybody can help me?

I'm not sure that's true. Doesn't VS.NET automatically recopy any DLLs that have changed?

Alvaro

Make a project reference instead of an assembly reference. If your projects are in the same solution, right-click on a project and select Add Reference. Then click the Projects tab and select the projects you want to reference. This also establishes a build dependency so that any changes in the dependencies will cause them to be built when you build a project that references them. This will also copy the latest, build-specific (i.e., release, debug, etc.) assembly to the local directory for that project that depends on them.

Thanks a lot... but what is the property "Local Copy" for?
|
|
|
|
|
It determines whether assemblies should be copied locally (to the target directory) or not. Assemblies found in the GAC (typically solidified assemblies - not those you're developing) don't need to be copied; it's a waste of time and space. Set "Local Copy" to false and when you run your app it will use those assemblies from the GAC or any other location you might have configured (via the .config file to configure a private path or assembly codebase, or using a publisher policy to define assembly redirections with an optional codebase).

I'm doing a program for a pocket-pc that has a "save as" dialog-box. When I execute it in the explorer, It's ok, but when I try to execute it in pocket-pc it doesn't work, in order to show the dialog-box only appears the text of the file. There is someone who can help me?
Thanks!!
  This is the code:
private void Command3_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
Response.ContentType="text/plain";
Response.AddHeader( "content-disposition","attachment; filename=Testa1.txt");
FileStream sourceFile = new FileStrea(@"C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\FitxIdatziWeb\Testa1.txt", FileMode.Open);
long FileSize;
FileSize = sourceFile.Length;
byte[] getContent = new byte[(int)FileSize];
sourceFile.Read(getContent, 0, (int)sourceFile.Length);
sourceFile.Close();
Response.BinaryWrite(getContent);
}

I am fairly new to programing and am progaming in C#. I am very motivated to create code that is lean. By that I mean not repeating code and creating seperate classes when I need to. I thought that I would pick the brains of the people here at 'The Code Project' and get there opinions on when to create your own classes, and get some general programming formats. Thanks ahead of time. I would love to be enlightend.

I recommend you simply start developing your main application. As you discover generic classes/methods that you use (or will use) in multiple places, extract them out to your utility DLL. If these classes belong to a particular area (web, windows, gui, networking), you may consider adding them to a more specific utility DLL.
That's the quickest and easiest way to build up your library of reusable classes.

I disagree with Alvaro - and many other architects will as well. Start by planning your application. Before writing a single line of code, decide what can be abstracted into separate modules. But start writing code by writing a good toolkit/framework. You should write them generically enough (using a provider pattern, good abstract object model, etc.) so that they can be reused in other applications.
Writing monolithic applications is always a bad idea. Starting from the UI and peeling pieces away will eventually lead to problems where your framework isn't generic enough for abstract use. This is a similar problem found when securing applications - security should never be an afterthought. Neither should a good application design.
Take a look at the .NET Framework Class Library. The assemblies mscorlib and System comprise the base functionality that everything uses. System.Windows.Forms and System.Web for example, could work without the types in those assemblies (nor could anything else - especially without the mscorlib assembly). It's all based on a good foundation.
If you're looking for good books (and the ones I'm recommending are free to download in their entirety), see the MSDN Patterns and Practices[^] site.

I think we're referring to two different concepts. You're talking about application design, which of course should be done before coding. I was referring to the creation of generic class libraries for use in multiple applications. I argue that those are developed slowly, as the need arises.
For example, say you start programming a Sockets-related project and you notice that the .NET classes don't have a couple of methods that would be really convenient for you. So you develop your own SocketUtil class, add the methods, and build it into your generic Util DLL.
That's how I've created my utility classes over the years, and I argue that most developers (not architects) have created theirs too. In fact, I'm willing to bet that most of the class libraries and utilities published in CP originated because someone had an immediate need for some functionality that they then extracted into a separated module for reuse.

Alvaro

Designing applications will lead to class libraries. Writing a toolkit is hardly a backward process. Yes, realizing that additional features could be abstracted from applications often happens, but even writing multiple applications at the same time and saving stuff off doesn't really make for a good class library from which applications should be based.

When you design an application, you usually talk about the classes that will play a role in the life of the application. Classes such as Customer, Order, Product, etc, are application-specific classes that are designed to meet that particular application's needs. You can put them inside a separate DLL and call them a "class library" if you like, but chances are that they'll only be used by one application.
As you start developing the application, you'll notice that the underlying class library (.NET) will not provide all the functionality you need. So you'll end up extracting some of that functionality into a separate DLL to become part of a generic class library.
The main difference between the application-specific class library (A) and the generic one (G) is that A needs to be created/considered every time an application is started, while G is always there and continues to grow as more applications are written.

You must deal with small applications with a limited scope, then.
I'm talking about interfaces, abstract control classes, utility classes like a preferences provider pattern, configuration sections for those classes, etc. etc.
The framework I architected for our large industrial engineering application is vast and not application-specific until you get a little further up the dependency hierarchy.
Microsoft Office is the same: They have their toolbar code, their their persistence code, the task bar code, etc. They get used in all the products. It's a very abstract design that is not really product specific (depending on your scope of "product").
I guess it really matters what you need to abstract away. Many applications start with a UI toolkit and that tends to get reused throughout a company.
Another factor is that there isn't too levels of abstraction when it comes to toolkits vs. applications. Typically there's many, as with our application. There's a base toolkit (UI, persistence model, COM-like interfaces), a goal-oriented tookit on top of that with additional features, a product-specific toolkit, then the application itself.

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)

Alvaro

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\"");
cmd

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.
