• J M B Graphics.DrawImageUnscaled scaling image?

  My goal here is to copy an image to a new, blank larger image without scaling. However, when I do this, the image gets scaled. I have no idea why this is happening, it happens whether I use Graphics.DrawImageUnscaled or Graphics.DrawImage. Below is sample code which reproduces the quirk on my machine (create a form with two pictureboxes, and add this code to the constructor, below InitializeComponent). I tried setting g.Transform to the identity matrix, and that didn't help. I get different results depending on what image file I use. Some are unchanged, some are enlarged and some end up bewing smaller. So, what am I doing wrong // Load The Bitmap Bitmap sourceImage = new Bitmap ( @"E:\Devel\CShapGameLib ...Show All

• Armela XmlSerialize a System.Drawing.Font

  Hi, I haven't used the XmlSerializer with any built-in types before, so maybe this is a common restriction... But are System.Drawing types possible to serialize When I try to serialize any System.Drawing type, I get a runtime error: Could not load file or assembly 'System.Drawing.XmlSerializers' I can't find any references to this assembly anywhere on the net. Is it something that hasn't been implemented in .NET yet.. Thanks, Jonas OK, thanks - and good link! Strange though, can't see anything in Font or Pen that would make them unserializable. I wonder if it was just overlooked by the Drawing team. I'll check if I can use my own XAML-style serializer to do the work. Edit: Ah, I forgot - font ...Show All

• rwbogosian Stopping/Killing a windows service

  I'm writting a watchdog application that will test a windows service on the same server. If the service does not respond with updated information I want to stop and start the service(this seems to take care of our problem); however, the service does not always stop in a decent manner and it seems that I need to kill the process. I have tried to implement process.kill(), but that doesn't seem to be doing the trick either. Is there another way in c# to kill/terminate this process Sorry, missed that one. However, TerminateProcess won't help you here. Process.Kill is just a wrapper around it. [ DllImport ( "kernel32.dll" , CharSet = CharSet .

• GAtkins We're not supposed to use List<T> ? ( List )

  I installed FxCop and had it analyze my application. In several spots, it says: "Do not expose List<T> in object models. Use Collection<T>, ReadOnlyCollection<T> or KeyedCollection<K,V> instead. List<T> is meant to be used from implementation, not in object model API. List<T> is optimized for performance at the cost of long term versioning. For example, if you return List<T> to the client code, you will not ever be able to receive notifications when client code modifies the collection."

• Davids Learning Client not returning server cookie

  Hi friends, During my server's communication with client, I add a cookie to the HTTP response. I also set the "Expires" property of cookie using cookie.Expires = DateTime .Now.AddDays(1); This used to work earlier but today I have seen that my client has stopped sending the cookie back to me in the same (TCP and HTTP) session. I saw that in the HTTP response from my server, the Max-Age info about the cookie was missing. Does that mean that the way I set the Expires property of cookie did not work I can't seem to figure whats the problem. Can anybody point out what could the possible problem be How can I ensure that I get the cookie back from client Thanks n Regards, Kunal Have you tried to exam ...Show All
