• Windows Forms Need shapes or transparent images, can't use either

  My problem is as follows: I want the user to be able to select a pattern among a grid of 20 patterns: Click here When the user clicks on one of them, a square should draw around it. I used to program with Visual Basic 5. In Visual Basic, I'd simply use a shape control to draw that square, but Visual C# has no shape control. So I tried using a GIF with a transparent background, it didn't work. The picturebox control just parses the form's background color, making the transparency useless. I tried using setting the style so that it supports transparent color, but this feature isn't perfect. Controls with a transparent background just parse the form's background and hide the controls that are under it. Here's a sample of what happen: Click he ...Show All

• Architecture SOA Data Aggregation Best Practices

  I'm just starting to think about implementing a SOA in my organisation and have a particular query/problem I was wondering if people had any experiences or best practices with, relating to combining data from different services... For example: Say I have a service which retrieves customer information such as GetCustomerInfo. I call this service passing in an id, and it will return various customer properties such as Name, OpenedData, Status etc which I could then map to a .NET class with public properties for use in my application. I now design a new line-of-business app to store customer referrals. This app will obviously have its own database schema, and as part of this needs to store the customer being referred. In the past, I would pro ...Show All
