Hello, I've come across a problem so strange, that I've recorded my session because I didn't think anyone would belive me. I came across a bug that seems to be at very fundamental level. This is a single threaded application and all im doing is evaluating a boolean. The boolean equals false, however, the if statement is executing as i...

I compose the xml by using .Net DOM manipulation, setting the InnerText property of the nodes with the arbitrary and possibly malicious text. Right now, maliciously crafted input strings will make my...

When I build the solution the DAL is compiled and the assembly placed in the bin folder of the main project. But when I run the application, it loads the GAC version instead of the local one. Why is this? I realized that because the...

Does a StreamReader lock a text file whilst it is reading it? If it does, can I force the StreamReader to work in a "read-only" or "non locking" mode? My workaround would be to copy the file to a temp location and read it from there but I would prefer to use the StreamReader directly if possible. Any alternative suggetions? Background:...
I'm not talking about porting VB6 application to .Net (that's been talked about plenty here). I just wondered, if you can do IronPython, IronRuby, Phalanger, H#, etc, is there any technical reason that would prevent creating VB6.Net? I'd think there would be a LOT of money in it. UPDATE Sorry for all the purists, I KNOW that VB.Net is...

Hello everyone, I have a solution with a web site and also a class library with a control which inherits from the WebControl class.

I got a crashdump where we're debating whether a control was visible to the end user or not. Looking with !do I can't see any explicit field that holds the true/false value matching up with the Visible property, which doesn't surprise that much as we're probably down in win32 teritory. Does anyone know how to deduce what Visible would ha...
