I've had some interesting debates with colleagues about the merits if incorporating aspect oriented programming as a native paradigm to the C# language. The debate seems to be divided into three camps: Those folks who think that C# is already too complicated as it is, and another major feature like AOP would only muddy the waters furt...
Does anyone know what AOP features are different between AspectJ and PostSharp (yes I know they are for different languages and platforms)? I'm trying to understand what kind of things AspectJ would allow that PostSharp would not, and vice versa. ...
I can't decide if it is good or bad to make many user controls. I am only doing it cause I find it easier to work on a control where there are not a lot of components. If something needs to be fixed it is also easier. Kind of like how you split your program up in a lot of classes. However multiple controls adds a bit more complexity wh...
Ok, I'm now very confused. After my last question had several people comment about changing bool to uint I verified they are the same size by: Console.WriteLine("sizeof bool = {0}", Marshal.SizeOf(typeof(bool))); Console.WriteLine("sizeof uint = {0}", Marshal.SizeOf(typeof(uint))); Which of course prints: sizeof bool = 4 siz...
It seems like calling Invoke on a winforms control in a callback from a System.Threading.Timer leaks handles until the timer is disposed. Does anyone have an idea of how to work around this? I need to poll for a value every second and update the UI accordingly. I tried it in a test project to make sure that that was indeed the cause o...
Hi, I have a this code public class SomeClass<T>: IEnumerable<T> { public List<SomeClass<T>> MyList = new List<SomeClass<T>>(); public IEnumerator<T> GetEnumerator() { throw new NotImplementedException(); } } How can I Extract a IEnumerator from MyList ? Thanks StackoverFlower.... ...
I have two functions that I want to run on different threads (because they're database stuff, and they're not needed immediately). The functions are: getTenantReciept_UnitTableAdapter1.Fill(rentalEaseDataSet1.GetTenantReciept_Unit); getTenantReciept_TenantNameTableAdapter1.Fill(rentalEaseDataSet1.GetTenantReciep...
I have only made one other ClickOnce application in the past but it generated an HTML file when I published it. I am working on another one now and for some reason it doesn't generate the HTML file. The rest of the files are published fine. I can install if I use a url directly to the setup.exe or .application file but I would like to...
Using C# .NET 2.0 or greater and Visual Studio 2008, how would one generate a list of all installed applications on a Windows Vista PC? My motivation is to get a text file of all my installed applications that I can save and keep around so that when I rebuild my machine I have a list of all of my old applications. The second part of th...
I would like my application to write out different trace files named like MachineName_UserName_yyyymmdd_hhmmss.txt where the username is the currently logged in user and the time is the start time of the application. The .Net listener TextWriterTraceListener only seems to support a hard coded file name specified in the config file. Is th...
the user will pick an image on their hardrive and i will put it on a pdf file using itextsharp with vb.net. how do i manually set the dimensions of the picture? ...
I can't seem to figure this out. I have two group boxes on the left side of my form window. When the window is normal size (1000x700), the two boxes are the same. However, when the window is maximized, it ends up looking like this: What I want is for both the "Log" group box and the tab control to extend down to the bottom of the windo...
I have a "Switch to window" button on my main form that I'd like to be enabled only when other windows (in my app) are open. Is there some sort of event that is raised whenever a form is opened or closed that my main form can hook? (For example, perhaps some sort of way to track when Application.OpenForms has changed?) (I understand tha...
How do I convert a HashSet<T> to an array in .NET? ...
I'm using Lucene.Net to create a website to search books, articles, etc, stored as PDFs. I need to be able to filter my search results based on author name, for example. Can this be done with just Lucene? Or do I need a DB to store the filter fields for each document? Also, what's the best way to index my documents? I'll have about 5...
Hello. I am creating a network chat client in C# as a side project. In addition to simple text messages, I also have slash-prefixed commands that can be entered into the input TextBox. I used a modular approach by creating an enum that contains all the various commands, and then decorating those commands with attributes. The attributes...
Hello, I need to do maths on both floats and integers with much bigger accuracies and magnitudes than offered both by int/float/double in .net. Are there any libraries around that help with that? I recall there was something like that for c/c++. ...
Hi, I would like to use some kind of nosql database in my web application which is written in asp.net mvc , but cannot find anything useful. I have a looked at MongoDB and CouchDB but i'd like to have better api (strongly typed not magic strings) for my queries than they have. Is anything like this exists for .NET ? ...
I watched this webcast recently, and I got the sense that a lot of the "cool stuff" from ASP.NET MVC is getting pulled back into the ASP.NET framework. At the moment I'm setting the ground-work for a project at my company using ASP.NET MVC, but after watching this, I'm beginning to wonder if that's the right choice, and whether it would...
I’m trying to create an error message / notification component for our .net C# web application. The requirements are that multiple messages can be posted, that they persist through partial post backs, and have different types (sticky, error, notification). I have a server-side method that captures these messages, and I am using the pop...
