• Smart Device Development How to suspend and resart a particular thread.

  In my application there are three thread runing.I have assign Name to all of them.Let Say Name are A B C Now in one of the method of thread A i want's suspend the thread B then resume it. How Can I do it While there currently exists methods outside of CF that can suspend/resume another thread they will be made obsolete and only debuggers will be able to suspect another thread or the thread itself can suspend itself. It's not safe to arbitrarily suspend another thread: you don't know the state of any of the invariants the thread is modifying and could leave data the thread is modifying in a indeterminate state or leave locks locked that cannot be unlocked (both synchronization and file-system based) resulting in deadlocks.

• .NET Development HttpPostedFile.FileName not fully qualified?

  I use the following code in an aspx file to read the file name which I am uploading from the client PC onto the server; Dim MyFileName As String Dim MyFileColl As HttpFileCollection = Request.Files MyFileName = MyFileColl.Item(0).FileName The Filename value is simply the file name ("text.txt").

• Visual Studio Team System Wrong/Different Code Coverage Results from Build Server versus Visual Studio

• Smart Device Development Problem with socket communication for client (On handheld) / server (on PC) application

  Hi all, I have tried posting this message in a couple of different places, and have not gotten much of a response. It is really important that this is resolved for a client of ours, and I've rarely come across a problem I've had to post on a forum to resolve, so please help if you can. I have a client application running on a windows ce .net device, and a server application running on a PC. I have been experiencing problems with the tcp connection dropping (ObjectDisposedException for the NetworkStream) and so I have tried to cut the applications down to their minimal details, so that I can post them and ask for your opinion on the problem. The client sends commands to the server, and the server sends a response. The tcp connecti ...Show All

• SQL Server Cannot create a connection to data source

  Why is it that sometimes I get this error and sometimes not after I deploy the same shared data souce to my Report Server Even if I try deleting the datasouce through Report Manager the redeploy it from VS 2005, it still errors out when I run my report. I am able to run my report fine in VS. An error has occurred during report processing. Cannot create a connection to data source 'mydatasourcenamehere'.

• Smart Device Development RTC API -> Windows Mobile 5.0 for SmartPhone -> C#

  Hi! I'm facing another problem. I need to migrate a VoIP application from a normal Windows application to a Smartphone. This application makes use of the RTC API but I think that for the WM5.0 platform I need to make some changes on the API. Anyone know if it's possible to use a RTC API, in C#, with a SmartPhone Thanks It's amazing how can Microsoft launch, for example, Microsoft Office Communicator Mobile and it works perfectly on Windows Mobile 5.0. No one can use a RTC API on Windows Mobile except for Microsoft... Why they don't launch a public API like they do for the desktop Windows version ...Show All

• SQL Server Confusing layout in SSIS with regard to "Execute SQL Task".

  I hope someone can help. I'm trying to read rows from a SQL Server Table and for each row use a few columns as parameters into a query to be run against oracle which will delete oracle rows. I add OLDEB connections for Oracle and SQL and then I try to add a "Execute SQL Task". I've also tried a "OLE Command" but I can't get the mapping of the columns to the parameters to work. There is lots of articles on the web that talk in general around parameterized queries but no clear examples. I also find the difference between the Control Flow and Data Flow tabs confusing as its not intuitive where to place things. It also appears to force me to re-define things that it should already know (this is no doubt because ...Show All

• Windows Forms What's the difference between the System.Windows.Forms.Timer class and the System.Timers.Timer class?

  Who can explain me the differences between those two classes Thanks for reply well the Forms.Timer class is used really for the UI end and is not as accurate as the System.Timers.Timer class. They are more optimized I believe. The Forms.Timer also runs on the UI thread (main thread) which also means that if a UI task is taking a while to do, there is a chance that you may lose some ticks, since the timer is running on that thread. Also, I hope this goes without saying, but the methods/event calls are different from one another. But they both do the same job pretty much - a timer. The System.Timers.Timer also has an AutoReset event, which the Forms.Timer class does not have. This property allows ...Show All

• Visual C# how to eliminate a horizontal scroll bar in a treeview???

  the horizontal scroll bar is getting displayed unneccessarily.. i need only the vertical scroll bar. I believe there is no direct way to do so in C#, as that property was not exposed. There're two way of investigation I can propose to you. 1. Try to see if there is any Win32 API to do so. Usually, property that are not exposed can be set using Win32 API. However, that's all I can tell you because I didn't do that with TreeView before. (I did these dirty things with ListView thought) 2. Try to see if you can disable all scrollbars in TreeView, and use a vertical scrollbar control, and blind them together by yourself. I believe it shouldn't be too difficult. ...Show All
