I have a C# (2008/.NET 3.5) class library assembly that supports WPF (based on http://dotupdate.wordpress.com/2007/12/05/how-to-add-a-wpf-control-library-template-to-visual-c-express-2008/). I've created several windows, and am now attempting to create a common style set for them. However, as it's a class library (instead of a WPF app), ...
I'm using C# WinForms to create a level builder for my XNA game. I have a tile grid that you can paint with a Pencil tool, like in MSPaint. The problem is that when you drag the mouse fast(ish) to paint a line tiles get skipped. I've tried using one approach i saw on Google saying to spawn a thread to do the painting, but that didn't se...
I've worked at two companies that implement ASP.Net two different ways. I tend to lean towards A, but my current job follows the B (more typical) approach. I'm wondering which is best, and also, are there formal names for these implementations? A) No project or solution was built. We simply pointed Visual Studio to a directory and sta...

Hi, I'm trying to create a splash screen that shows assemblies (all referenced library) loading status. I use AppDomain.AssemblyLoad AssemblyLoadEventHandler delegate to catch what assembly is being loaded but the problem is the event is not triggered when the program initializes.

I'm now using Visual Studio 2008 Pro Edition. I installed Connector/Net 5.2 with Visual Studio integration. I restarted Visual Studio, and MySQL database now appears in the list of data providers.

In my ASP.NET application, I want to use regular expressions to change URLs into hyper links in user posts, for example: http://www.somesite.com/default.aspx to <a href="http://www.somesite.com/default.aspx">http://www.somesite.com/default.aspx</a> This is fairly easy using Regex.Replace(), but the problem I'm having is th...
Is there a way to configure what JSON serializer is used when returning JSON via the JsonResult in the controller: public ActionResult SomeJsonFunction() { var x = SomeModelCode.SomeModelFunction(); return Json(x); } It looks like the default is the JavaScriptSerializer. I would love to be able to use the DataContractJsonSerializ...

When the user selects an option, I want to repopulate a DataGridTable with fresh data, which I am acquiring as shown below: connect.Open(); MySqlCommand comm = connect.CreateCommand(); comm.CommandText = getCustomerInvoices + customerID + "\'"; ...
I'm trying to create a plugin for a program. The program works by loading your plugin DLL and executing specifically named functions within that DLL. Pretty standard stuff. However, I'd like to create my plugin in C# (and I am a bit of newbie). My question is, can I export regular C like functions from C#? or How do I easily create a...
Duplicate Modifying A Collection While Iterating Through It Has anyone a nice pattern to allow me to get around the inability to remove objects while I loop through an enumerable collection (eg, an IList or KeyValuePairs in a dictionary) For example, the following fails, as it modifies the List being enumerated over during the forea...
I know this is possible since there are so many packages available where you have a "Standard", "Professional", and "Enterprise" version of a package... but does anyone have any decent tutorials available on how a uISV would go about learning the techniques involved in developing a tiered feature piece of software? I've done multiple se...

I am new to unit testing but am beginning to think I need it. I have an ASP.NET web forms application that is being extended in unforeseen directions meaning that certain bits of code are being adapted for multiple uses. I need to try and ensure that when changing these units I don't break their original intended use. So how do I best go...
Something like ".//div[@id='foo\d+]" to capture div tags with id='foo123'. I'm using .NET, if that matters. ...
There have been many JVM languages in the recent few years including Javascript, Python, Ruby etc. (full list here: List of JVM Languages). My question is this: why has Sun not come out with a full suite of languages for the JVM just like Microsoft's .NET? With the new version of the JVM, they can make any necessary adjustments for dynam...
Happy New Year. I have a bunch of SOAP Web Services. They all have an HTTP POST and GET interfaces along with the SOAP interface. I believe POST and GET are offered by default when building SOAP Web Services in .NET/Visual Studio. These methods either: (1) get information, e.g., provide your username, password and a transaction ID -> g...

Hi, I recently faced a problem of presenting the output of simple genetic algorithm that looks for extremes of 2 argument function f(x1,x2) . I would like to be able to use x1 as x, x2 as y and f as z and to draw points in 3d space that I could rotate. ( I'm currently drawing this on bitmap using color as the 'z axis'.) Where should I ...
Basically you have two ways for doing this: for (int x = 0; x < UPPER_X; x++) for (int y = 0; y < UPPER_Y; y++) { arr1[x, y] = get_value(); arr2[y, x] = get_value(); } The only difference is what variable to change in the inner loop: first or second. I heard that the results differ from language to ...
