I am not too familiar with Silverlight and need some advice. We have a DLL that is written in C , I beleive. Currenlty, we have a windows application that allows a user to select some files and then pass the files (an array of file names from the file system) to the DLL to be processed. We would like to have the application be an add-in ...
I am interested in writing a method that would accept another method as a parameter but do not want to be locked into a specific signature - because I don't care about that. I am only interested whether the method throws an exception when invoked. Is there a construct in the .NET Framework that will allow me to accept any delegate as a ...
I'm currently working on an application where one component of the application needs to interact with multiple other system components based on certain events.

I have several textboxes on a windows form. I can't paste text into any of them using CTRL-V, though I can still right click and select paste. This is pretty annoying. I have tried this with the form's KeyPreview as both true and false. TextBox.ShortcutsEnabled is also true. ...

I have an application in VB.NET which is generating some -301 errors in DB2 on an update statement using an ADO.NET connection. It appears that DB2 reports the occurrence of this error, but then fixes whatever data was wrong and resubmits.

Utilizing .Net I am inheriting from an older class that has DateTime and bool parameters as part of its constructor. These values are pulled from a SQL database and in the SQL database these values can be null. When I populate my class and call the base constructor this fails because DateTime and bool cannot have null values in .Net. ...
Launching your app automatically immediately after install is suprisingly tricky. The advice that's out there if you google the problem is varied but most of it unsatisfactory. We're using the built in Setup & Deployment project in Visual Studio. So, how to do it? What doesn't work: The simplest solution suggested is to add your app...
A C# program of ours reads an XML file. The XML file has standalone='no' header. The DOCTYPE used to look like: <!DOCTYPE foo SYSTEM "silly.dtd"> where silly.dtd is not sitting right there next to the file. For various reasons, I changed this to <!DOCTYPE foo PUBLIC "-//Some Public Id" "urn:outerspace:silly.dtd"> I expected noth...

I am scanning documents to JPG images. The scanner must scan all pages as color or all pages as black and white. Since many of my pages are color, I must scan all pages as color. After the scanning is complete, I would like to examine the images with .Net and try to detect what images are black and white so that I can convert those im...
I had a scanned multipage TIFF image and needed to split each page out into individual files. This is easy to do in by leveraging the .NET framework and C#, but since I did not have all the development tools installed on the machine I was using, I instead opted to use IronPython (via ipy.exe) to quickly script the processing logic. Usi...

I have a CheckedListBox. I would like to be able to select items when I click on the text but check/uncheck them when I click on the checkbox area on the left. If I set CheckOnClick then the items are checked and unchecked whenever I click, even on the text, so that's no good. But if I clear CheckOnClick then I have to click twice to ...
Naming things is hard. When naming my classes, variables, and methods I strive to avoid collisions with reserved words or keywords in my languages (MSSQL, VB.NET or C#, HTML, CSS, jQuery) and framework (.NET). Too often I make mistakes and don't realize it until it's too late to easily go back and rename. A scenario: (1) first create ...
I have a homework assigment to iterate through an object array and print out these objects using for and foreach. I'm stuck on how to do that. Questions When you use a foreach loop, don't you have to declare the object? So the object declared in a foreach loop is null, because it doesn't call any constructors in my Employee class. Cod...
