• BobH How to suppress the BOM while using XMLTextWriter?

  I am using XMLTextWriter to create an UTF8 XML document. Is there a way to suppress the "EF BB BF" bytes I think default System.Text.Encoding.UTF8 is UTF8 with BOM. At least in sources it looks like public static Encoding UTF8 { get { if (utf8Encoding == null) utf8Encoding = new UTF8Encoding(true); return utf8Encoding; } } That means you are actually producing UTF-16. BOM is required in UTF-16. Show us how you write XML. That's weird. I can't reproduce this problem. provide more details please.

• djponmsft Serialport freezes

  Hello, i'm developing app which reads incoming data from GPS receiver via serial port. The problem is that app freezes sometimes, even in Visual Studio IDE, when i attempt to close the app. Thank you for any kind hint. Yeah, at least until MSFT fixes this problem, that's a workaround that seems to be most practical. Windows makes sure that the handle to the serial port gets closed when your program terminates. Thank you nobugz for your kind hint. I read all the threads thoroughly and found only one ugly solution for deadlock: do not call Close() method, just close app. Am i right, please There's a deadlock in the SerialPort.Close() method. It never ...Show All

• Caffey How do i update table with ID's from user input?

  I want to be able to input what rows (ID's) that should be updated in an UPDATE query. How would you create a UI for this task, and how should i build the query string My previous solution was this: - I created a bunch of textboxes (approx 20), cause i usually did not need to update more than 20 rows. - For each row i needed to update, i filled in the ID in a textbox. Usually, there would be some empty textboxes left. - When clicking a "Update" button I ran a hardcoded a query, that took the values from the textboxes as arguments in the WHERE clause. Example (simplified) "Update Orders SET Status = 'Shipped' WHERE ID IN( "; + txtbox1 + txtbox2 + txtbox3 and so on. Of course, i controlled the data first, and ...Show All

  Hi. I'm trying out the QuickStart samples from the WSE 3.0 crew. I got them installed on my Server 2003 machine, logged on with my laptop and it works, with the ASP.NET client.

• Luxsy CSharpCodeProvider and temporary files

  I'm using CSharpCodeProvider.CompileAssemblyFromSource() to compile C# scripts from within a Windows service. Everything works great from my machine but when deployed to our test servers, this error occurs: Compilation errors: Compilation failed:error CS1619: Cannot create temporary file 'c:\WINNT\system32\CSCDBC.tmp' -- Access is denied. Is there a way to specify where this temporary file is generated I've tried everything. TempFiles collection doesn't do it. GenerateInMemory doesn't do it. Actually that doesn't work. I replied in the newsgroups about this. Basically, I used Reflector to view the internals of CSharpCodeProvider. CompileAssemblyFromSource() doesn't use the parameters like you would think.

• Meggy WMI Problem

  I've tried these two methods of accessing Win32_Account from WMI, from two separate PCs, each trying to access both itself and the other PC. In all cases the For Each loop does not execute as if the Instances collection is empty. Any attempt to inspect the Instances collection with a debugger hangs. I can run similar code in VB6 using objects and it works perfectly and lists accounts on each machine. Is this a bug in System.Management or am I doing it wrong Dim wmi As New System.Management.ManagementScope( "\\" & "somepc" & "\root\cimv2" ) Dim sClass As String = "Win32_Account" Dim opt As New System.Management.ObjectGetOptions( Nothing , New System.Ti ...Show All

• Hilley Missing namespace error.

  I am working on an ASP Classic website but am growing out of its native XML parser, MSXML. Saxon parser is available on .NET so I am thinking about migrating, at least partially. I made an sample.aspx page but it chokes on: <%@ Import Namespace="Saxon.Api" %> (Need to register the DLL) Problem: I am not sure what is involved with setting up a new .NET project. I come from a Perl/PHP background and the whole ISS Application Directory sounds a little overinvolved for me. Essentially, I just want to make 1 .NET script which performs XML Transforms. I'm just a dude trying to use Saxon's Namespace but I don't want to go through the whole VS->Add Reference ***. 1) Is there some other way to include the .DLLs so I can use the c ...Show All
