Ok. This one must be silly: We have just migrated a project to Visual Studio 2010 (Release Candidate) + .Net 4 + MVC2. One of the reasons was that the customer has record IDs that include the "/" character, and using encoded slashes as route parameters was not allowed until .Net 4. (See http://stackoverflow.com/questions/591694/url-enco...
Hi, I have a project in which I would need to copy files found within a PDA (in my case, it's a MC3000 if that makes any difference). I have ActiveSync installed and it create the syncronisation folder for me just fine. However, I would like to be able to read the content of the PDA not only in its MyDocument Folder so I can't use this ...
The X509Certificate2Collection.Import method allows to retrieve all certificates from an executable file or from an MSI package. That's fine. Now I want to validate the certificates. The X509Certificate.Verify method validates a certificate against the current time (the Reflector confirms: it uses DateTime.Now). So my first question i...
I am trying to reference LINQPad.exe, a .NET executable, so that my code can make use of its wonderful .Dump() extension method. Adding a reference to the exe allows me to use the following code on my dev machine, but it breaks ClickOnce ("Reference in the manifest does not match the identity of the downloaded assembly LINQPad.exe."). p...
Last night we had 45,000 failed attempts to access an SQK Server database on a high profile site, which seems to correlate with portions of the application ceasing to work last night. However, when we pushed the main 3 DLLs live this morning, the issue was immediately corrected. Why would failed attempts to login to the database cause ...

Am I missing something obvious here? e.g. call to Private Declare Function waveOutOpen Lib "winmm.dll" (ByRef lphWaveOut As Int32, ByVal uDe...
Hi there, I am using client side configuration files for a .NET remoting client, and the RemotingConfiguration.Configure() call successfully completes.

I can't find any new features or improvements for Windows Forms in Visual Studio 2010. Am I missing something? I guess there are new features to C# and other parts of .NET in general. Any reason specifically to the GUI development portion? ...
We have a framework created in .NET which controls hardware devices. The entire framework uses MEF so it relies heavily on interfaces. For reasons beyond our control we had to change the hardware and that required some breaking changes to some of the interfaces. The project for the old hardware was put on hold for a while and we starte...

Here is what we do when we push updates to the production. In VS, publish the smart-client application into a localhost directory Copy/Paste the dire...
I'm converting several large ETL processes from SSIS over to Rhino-Etl. I got fed up with the "grahical programming" nature of SSIS. Hunting through hundreds of dialog boxes to figure out what the ETL process is doing gets old in a hurry. Several of the SSIS packages use the Fuzzy Match component for joining user accounts based on fir...
In CLR 2.0, is there any way to view all of the strings that have been interned? I've looked into the CLR Profiler APIs and can't see any API calls to monitor when a string gets interned. Also, what is the scope of interned strings? Do interned strings get collected when the App Domain gets unloaded, or do they span App Domains? ...

Now, that process shows a splash screen, so, if i try ProcessInstance.MainWindowHandle all I get is the handle of that processes main window, that is the splash screen.

I have been doing TDD and was using it more as unit testing than to drive my design. Recently I have read a lot about BDD; now that I have a better idea about them both, I was trying to figure out how to use BDD and unit testing concurrently. For example I would drive my design using BDD Dan North style ,and lets say am working on app...
