I created a C# file and wish to compile it into a DLL for future use. However, this .cs file depends on another DLL. In my code inside my .cs file I am doing something like: using anotherlib.dll; When I try to compile it into a DLL, the compiler tells me that it can't find that anotherlib.dll (missing directive or assembly reference)....
The closest I can think of using is the GroupBox control which has a custom drawing at the top identifying the panel. Is it doable? I have done independent custom controls like buttons, sliders, color pickers, but not totally sure if this sort of drawing can be done on a GroupBox? I would need the grouping of a GroupBox or a TabPanel. ...
The Model-View-ViewModel is very popular with WPF and Silverlight. I've been using this for my most recent projects, and am a very large fan. I understand that it's a refinement of MVP. However, I am wondering exactly what unique characteristics of WPF (and Silverlight) allow MVVM to work, and prevent (or at least make difficult) this...
I have sets of controls contained in individual GroupBox controls. So say GroupBoxCommon contains Common UI Items, GroupBoxSpecific contains Specific UI items, etc. I have a way of stacking them in a single UI (floating panel) based on the current selection in the app. I am just wondering how I should store these sets of controls? Sho...

Suppose I have some simple struct like this: public struct WeightedInt { public int value; public double weight; } Then let's say I have a collection of instances of this structure: List<WeightedInt> weightedInts = new List<WeightedInt>(); As I understand value types versus reference types, value types are allocated on the ...

Hi, I'm using MS Interop to open a generated file for a user, allow them to edit it and then close it, after which I save it for them (it's part of a larger process). Since the user doesn't need to save the file manually I would like to cancel that pop up dialog to save the file when the user tries to close the document. The following d...

I have an xml document that is constructed pretty poorly-- instead of child nodes, the items have multiple attributes. For Example: <makes> <option make="FORD" year_start="1950" year_end="2009" /> <option make="CHEVROLET" year_start="1965" year_end="2009" /> ... </makes> I'm trying to use XPath to select the value of the other attri...
I got the value to show up correctly using: [DefaultValue ( typeof ( Color ), "255, 0, 0" )] public Color LineColor { get { return lineColor; } set { lineColor = value; Invalidate ( ); } } But after I reload the project the control is used, this value is set to White, which I can invoke Reset to get back to Red again, but I do...

The .NET application for which I'm responsible uses a third-party control that is only available as a 32 bit COM component. I've been banging my head against walls for a while trying to find a way to allow the component and the app to work together in 64-bit mode. We got some help from the control vendor - they don't plan on supplying ...
I'm working on some VB.net code that I inherited and am seeing some very strange behavior when trying to lookup a value in a Interop.Scripting.Dictionary object. Here's the output from my watches.
