When we install, it does not indeed install the correct one. Is there a way to make this work? The application was made in WPF if that changes anything. Thanks! ...

Running a workflow from within another workflow

I am currently using sequential workflows in Windows WF, but need to break up the process because I now have multiple workflows that need to share a piece of functionality. I believe there's a way to create custom code activities in WF that would basically accomplish this, but my plan is to eventually ditch WF in favor of Stateless; the...

Eziriz - Intellilock invalid licence problem

Unfortunately we used intellilock to licence our software. A licence file works in everywhere but not in one of our clients.

Real world uses of Reflection.Emit

In all the books I've read on reflection they often say that there aren't many cases where you want to generate IL on the fly, but they don't give any examples of where it does make sense. After seeing Reflection.Emit as a job requirement for a gaming company I was curious where else it's being used. I'm now wondering if there are an...

Pattern for notifying an application that a collection has changed?

Say I have a basic interface like the following: public interface IObjectProvider { IEnumerable<IObject> GetObjects(); } The object source is some backing store that might be updated, and the implementation of this interface takes care of using that backing store. Now I'd like consumers of this interface to be able to take actions...

Primitive-typed Collection as DataSource in .NET's DataGridView?

Is it possible to use a primitive-typed Collection, such as List<long>, as the DataSource for a DataGridView? After a half-hearted attempt to make it work, I gave in and created a simple struct so I could give DataGridViewColumn a PropertyName. But now I have to box my values when I deal with the UI, unbox them for the rest of my app (...

From DataTable in C# .NET to JSON

If I catch exceptions inside a using statement for a SqlConnection, does the using still handle closing and disposing my connection?

I'm going through some old C#.NET code in an ASP.NET application making sure that all SqlConnections are wrapped in using blocks. This piece of code used to open cn and da and close and dispose them in both the catch block and the end of the method. I added the usings and can't figure out for certain if the using blocks still handle dis...

If I return a value inside a using block in a method, does the using dispose of the object before the return?

I'm going through some old C#.NET code in an ASP.NET application making sure that all SqlConnections are wrapped in using blocks. I know that using is the same as try / finally where it disposes of the object in the finally no matter what happens in the try. If I have a method that returns a value inside the using, even though execution...
