• .NET Development Instrumentation problems using latest Jan 2006 version of Enterprise Library

  Has anyone ever tried instrumenting a component using InstrumentationListener and InstrumentationProvider from the latest Enterprise Library I am following a sample code from the documentation but it fails during run-time when I try to raise OnDbConnect event from the code below. The error that I get is "Object reference not set to an instance of an object". I am sure it is an easy fix but I cannot seem to find what is wrong. ObjectBuilder is supposed to link an OnDbConnect event from the InstrumentationProvider with the function ConnectObserved() from the InstrumentationListener, but that is clearly not happening :-( Here is the code: public partial class Form1 : Form { public Form1() { InitializeComponent ...Show All

• .NET Development SSL handshake always fails when using AuthenticateAsClient from ssltream class

  Hi, I tried to use the SSLStream class to implement ftp with ssl. I first open a normal socket connection and send AUTH TLS command and after i get the right reply i try to initiate the ssl handshake. But this always fails with illegal data exception. I setup a cert verify callback that always returns true. I tried to set the different sslprotocols in AuthenticateAsClient call, but no luck. The server I tested uses openssl (handshake works with clients using openssl). Any ideas what could be the problem I include the trace log: Thanks, Markus System.Net.Sockets Verbose: 0 : [2732] DNS::GetHostAddresses(192.168.1.1) System.Net.Sockets Verbose: 0 : [2732] Exiting DNS::GetHostAddresses() -> IPAddress[]#8963119 System.Net.Socket ...Show All

• .NET Development How can I retrieve Recordset from webservice?

  I have a server and a client the server is implemented by c# and the client is programmed by vb(not vb.net) so how can I get the recordset from the webservice thank you Let's assume you mean a DataSet. If you are using SOAP Toolkit 3.0, you need to use XML DOM as a type of the parameter. Refer to SOAP Toolkit 3.0 documentation on how to do that. Note that SOAP Toolkit is not supported product, betting on it in production is risky. Supported mechanism is to use .Net framework (ASMX proxy) via interop layer. In this case you need to implement a wrapper for both web service proxy and for the DataSet parameter. Wrappers would have COM Interop attributes. DataSet wrapp ...Show All

• Visual Studio SandCastle Getting Started Help

  So I've become completely spoiled with msdn-style help and with tutorials. I've never used nDoc so this is all new to me. I have a C# console app with xml (///<summary>... etc.) comments for every method both public and otherwise. I've used the SandCastle Help File Builder to execute against my solution file. The solution has xml comments and I get no errors at all. The problem is that I also don't get any documentation. I get a chm file with "Namespace" at the top and none of my classes or the program.cs are represented in the chm. Is there a getting started, 101 tutorial out there that will help me figure out what I've done wrong and get me grooving I have a major asp.net application that I have to document for a cl ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System schedule instrumentation profiling

  Hi, I would like to know how can I schedule an instrumentation o sample Profiling to run multiple times, using a timer. I’m using Team Suite. I know that to schedule a unit test, for example, I can create a test list (including this unit test) and then schedule it using the MSTest.exe...but my question is...can I include an instrumentation profiling in that list test Thanks!!! There's no slick trick in the VS 2005 UI that will allow you to trigger and schedule profiling sessions like this, but it is possible if you're willing to go off-road a bit.  The MSDN documentation for vsperfcmd.exe (or in a pinch, vsperfcmd - ) should have enough details for you on how to script all of this from the command line.   ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Pb with ManagementClass API, probably linked with Media Center update

  <post moved from .Net development forum - it is not about Vista but good old media center :) > Hi, We have designed an HTML application for the Media Center (2005 edition) : an applet is downloaded from a web server located on another PC. In order to check that the applet has been downloaded from the local network we have implemented a .Net security policy giving fulltrust to assemblies coming from the same subnetwork. The corresponding condition is called LanMembershipCondition (see below). At first the ManagementClass APIs was used in that membership condition in order to get the collection of network adapters so that the Subnet mask was dynamically retrieved (1). And it worked fine ! But one day it stopped working, becau ...Show All

• Windows Forms Controling the Browser Window in ASP.NET

  Is there a '.NET way' of controlling the browser window attributes, such as height, width, toolbars etc I have a page with a link which i want to open a pop-up second window of a specific size, without toolbars, scroll bars etc etc. I would usually do this with javascript's "window.open" but this doesn't seem in-keeping with the .NET mythology of seperating code and content. Is there a better way Can .NET open a new browser window from an OnClick event Or can I open a new window using <A Target="_Blank" > and control the attributes of the window in the new page's Load event I would guess this isn't possible - how can the .NET webserver control the number and sice of the clients browsers - but i thought i w ...Show All

• Visual C# How to delete a control during runtime?

  Hi, I would like to know how to delete a control when the user presses the Delete key on the keyboard (For example, there is a label in the form, and the user clicks on it and presses Delete). I was trying to use the KeyEventArgs but it always gives me an error message stating that it is not set to an instance of an object.. There is no real way of finding out which control was clicked upon in runtime mode - and besides you cannot select a label control during runtime AFAIK however to remove the control in an easy way: this.Controls.RemoveByKey( "ControlName" ); you can perhaps go through each control in the Controls collection and see if the control has focus, if so, remove it with ...Show All
