Why does PowerShell fail to build my .net solutions? ("file is being used by another process")

I've written a PowerShell script to build several .net solutions one after the other. It simply makes several calls to tfget (to get latest) followed by devenv.exe (to build the .sln files). Here's the code: tfget -item $SolutionPath -overwrite -recurse -ev +errors ... $out = invoke-expression "devenv.com /rebuild debug $SolutionPath" ...

Is it safe to lock a static variable in a non-static class?

I've got a class that manages a shared resource. Now, since access to the resource depends on many parameters, this class is instantiated and disposed several times during the normal execution of the program. The shared resource does not support concurrency, so some kind of locking is needed. The first thing that came into my mind is ha...

Is it possible in .NET to set the local endpoint (IP address) when using webclient to consume a web service

I'm wondering if it is possible using .NET to call a remote web service and in effect specify which IP the call is made on. I'm consuming a service that limits the number of calls I can make based on IP. The service costs in the 20k range after the free limit is used up. I'm very close to enough calls but not quite there using the fre...

How to validate a string as DateTime using FluentValidation

With FluentValidation, is it possible to validate a string as a parseable DateTime without having to specify a Custom() delegate? Ideally, I'd like to say something like the EmailAddress function, e.g.: RuleFor(s => s.EmailAddress).EmailAddress().WithMessage("Invalid email address"); So something like this: RuleFor(s => s.DepartureD...

Winform User Settings - Allow multiple choice values at Runtime

I created a simple User Settings Dialog by binding the Property.Settings to a PropertyGrid. This works like a charm but now I would like to allow only certain choices for some values. I have noticed that some Types will give a dropdown of possible choices. This is what I am shooting for but for, say, Strings. Example, one of the ...

If I drag and drop tracked .cs files to new folders in VS2008 with VisualSVN what message should I see when I commit the .cs file? I see added (+) shouldn't I see a "move"?

Is there a list of changes for C#4.0 that work in .Net 3.5?

So, is there a comprehensive list of new C# 4.0 language features that will work on .Net 3.5 or lower? As an example, do default parameters require the .NET 4.0 ...

Printing From WebBrowser control prints to wrong printer after setting default

I have a WebBrowser control in a VB.NET WinForms app. I am able to set the default printer from code and print without prompting the user. However, there is also a print button that shows the PrintDialog. If this action is done first the page will print. Then if I try to programmatically print later (again setting the default printer...

Looking for a free tool to visualize object relationships for C#

Here is my ideal solution: a free tool that reads a .csporj or .sln and generates a pretty picture that shows all the objects and how they are related. By relationships, I don't mean inheritance but rather dependency. For example, if we have a Car object and Car has a member variable Wheel, I would like that Car depends on Wheel to be...

Handling Types Defined in Plug-ins That Are No Longer Available

I am developing a .NET framework application that allows users to maintain and save "projects". A project can consist of components whose types are defined in the assemblies of the framework itself and/or in third-party assemblies that will be made available to the framework via a yet-to-be-built plug-in architecture. When a project is...

I have 2 List objects: List<int> lst1 = new List<int>(); List<int> lst2 = new List<int>(); Let's say they have values: lst1.Add(1); lst1.Add(2); lst1.Add(3); lst1.Add(4); lst2.Add(1); lst2.Add(4); I need to get an object containing the "distinct" list of both of these; so in this case the return would be List {2, 3}.
