• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Recreating client proxies when in a Faulted or Closed state

  What is the recommended approach for recreating client proxies after they go into a Faulted or Closed state In our smart client we're newing up instances of our client proxies and holding them for a period of time (aka: we're not newing them up and closing them right after). We're running into a problem when the client proxies get closed or a fault occurs that causes them to go into the faulted state. We're experimenting with some different approaches for handling this and would like to make sure we keep in mind the recommended approach (or any approach for that matter) when devising our solution. Is anyone doing something similar If so how Is there anything built into WCF that we should look into for handling this scenario ...Show All

• Smart Device Development Access command prompt in the emulator

  Can any way we can go to the command prompt in the emulator. I want's to start one service using services.exe on the command prompt Sorry sorry. You need to make a call to ActivateService to load a service into services.exe. You can't load the process directly by calling the above code. Try looking here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp url=/library/en-us/wcecomm5/html/wce50lrfactivateservice.asp Looks like this is a C++ call so you will have to use DLLImport to use it. You should also note that WM 5.0 Smartphones have heavy restrictions regarding services.exe. You will probably need a priveledged certificate unless you are running on an open device. You can get priviledged certificates by entering the Mobile ...Show All

• Visual Basic find individual file permissions for a given user

  Hello, i help manage several windows 2000 and windows 2003 servers. I've been asked to write a script that will list all the permissions a given user has on any file in these server. In other words, when i type a user's login name into this applicatio or script, i should be able to get a lisitng of all files the user has some type of individual rights to. I dont need to worry about files the user may have permissions due to affiliations to security groups. All i need to find are files that the user was given DIRECT rights to. My first guess would be to write a script that traverses the file system of each server and queries the permissions of each file to find the given username. I am going to start working on this idea. However, if ...Show All

• .NET Development timer vs thread performance

  which implementation is better in terms of performance/efficiency/etc. [code] System.Threading.Timer t = new System.Threading.Timer( delegate { DoSomething(); }, someState, 0, 50 ); [/code] or [code] System.Threading.Thread t = new System.Threading.Thread( delegate() { while (_running) { DoSomething(); Thread.Sleep(50); } } ); t.Start(); [/code] _running is some private bool variable that would be set to false when Stop() is called or something similar. whereas, the Timer implementation would need a call to Change, respectively. thanks in advance. I'm curious, just what CPU usage you are seeing (if timer uses 20% less then it must be pretty big) and what speed has the serial port I'd tr ...Show All

• .NET Development Unresolved externals when mixing managed & native C++ with Windows Forms 2.0

  Hi. The title more or less summarises the problem, but here are some more specifics. I'm trying to mix a native C++ static library with a managed C++ Windows Forms application using Visual Studio 2005 with implicit P-Invoke (It Just Works technology). I can compile my library with /clr and link it as long as I dont include a few classes which encapsulate Win32 api calls for creating windows using native API calls. When I take these classes out the whole program compiles and links with no errors. I checked my linker options in the managed C++ application and without changing anything it looks as though it should already be linking against the relevant libraries for these everyday native win32 api calls. The linker is correctly identifying t ...Show All
