Formatting large amounts of money is not an issue (e.g. converting a decimal to dollars): myDecimal.ToString("C", {some culture info}); However, my current problem is dealing with very small amounts of money (e.g. cents/pence, etc.) and rather than formatting 5 cents as $0.05 (or 5 pence as £0.05), I need to format as 5¢ or 5p. Is th...
I'm new to the world of IoC and having a problem with implementing it in a Winforms application. I have an extremely basic application Winform application that uses MVC, it is one controller that does all the work and a working dialog (obviously with a controller). So I load all my classes in to my IoC container in program.cs and crea...
I have a web service that creates files on the server. It works great locally. As soon as I deploy the service to the shared host, it hangs. No exception is caught in the front end web site. When I inspect the folder where it should have written a file, I see the file written with 0 bytes. Is this a permissions issue? Any help is appr...

Hello, I have a question regarding marshalling of C++ arrays to C#. Does the double* automatically convert to double[]? I know double is a blittable type, so double from C++ is the same as double from C#. And what about double**, does it convert to double[,] ? I have the following unmanaged function: int get_values(double** param,in...

I must be doing an obvious mistake but I can't figure it out. I am importing a date stored in a mysql database (it is stored by the ExpressionEngine CMS). It is a unix timestamp, i.e. seconds since 1/1/1970 00:00. So I'm doing something like this: DateTime dateTime = new System.DateTime(1970, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0); dateTime = dateTime.Add...
I'm working on an application where users can create classes programatically at runtime. They have a UI screen where they fill out meta data which gets turned into classes. Basically, the data the user enters is used to generate properties in the .cs file. So, I need to be able to instantiate an object from the generated class file af...
The initial release of the Entity Framework wasn't regarded well in the development community. Developers felt a number of things were left out, and many continued to use other ORM's, such as LINQ To SQL and NHibernate. The good news, however, is that Microsoft has been hard at work on the 4.0 release of Entity Framework, which will brin...
Hi Everyone, I've came across a dilemma which I think is worth discussing here. I have a set of domain objects (you can also call them entities, if you like), which get some data from a separate DAL which is resolved with an IoC. I was thinking about making my system very extensible, and I'm wandering if it is right to also resolve th...

I have two paths that I know to be on the same root drive, I want to be able to get a relative path from one to the other. string path1 = @"c:\dir1\dir2\"; string path2 = @"c:\dir1\dir3\file1.txt"; string relPath = MysteryFunctionThatShouldExist(path1, path2...
I have a strange bug in resharper 4.5 in VS 2005. Instead of doing the usual underline for a suggestion -- IE: telling me that a using statement is unnecessary, it is setting the background to red in the same manner as a breakpoint. Here is a screenshot. I have uninstalled and reinstalled several times, including an install of resharp...
