A common issue for WCF appears to be how the hostname is resolved within the wsdl for the links to other files. The issue is that the machine name of the computer is placed into the wsdl to link the other wsdl files, so if you visit http://myhost/service.svc it may point to the rest of the wsdl on another location, ie http://mypc/service...
Hi guys I am wondering what's your opinion about this. I have used L2SQL in my last project, and its a great OR mapping system. I have never used EF yet, however I have read that the Microsoft team seem to give it more importance than the L2SQL. What's your opinion? (edit: multiple duplicates - see comments, most notably: Entity Fra...

I am trying to use Microsoft's CLRProfiler to profile my fairly large app, and it is crashing whenever it tries to write (or read) a log file. Ironically, the exact bug is documented on the MS 'Feedback' site as being not reproducible, and seems never to have been fixed. I am getting a NullReferenceException at: CLRProfiler.ReadNewLog.R...
When I am writing translated strings into the form resx files in VS2008, is there anything like a translation repository? It was very helpful in my old C++ Builder times: Translate "Cancel" in one form to German "Abbrechnen" Add this translation to a repository, since this word is repeated in most forms When I start to translate anothe...
A friend has developed a very amazing blob store and I think it needs to be used, but I'm wondering whether people think such a thing has a market, and if programmers ever get to make these kinds of decisions. It has support for online backups using deltas and is much faster than anything I know of, it's undergone rigorous testing and b...
Hi, I´m working on a project that basically will show some data collected from hardware devices through UDP protocol. the first idea of how to do this: implement a winService (to listen and persist the messages) and a wepApp to manage the data, based on .NET platform. I´m confused about if exists the possibility to rent a "windows servi...
I would like to define an asp.net page from xml, then parse/render it by calling a command name. Just like they do in Flex. Does someone has an idea how to do that? Like for example, from XML: <button onClick="DoJavascript()" text="Submit"/> <gridview ......./> To parse: <asp:button runat="server" onClick="DoJavascript()" text="Subm...

I can access the PromptField objects with dataDefController.ParameterFieldController. GetPromptParameterFields(new PropertyBagClass()); but can't seem t...
I wanted to play around with some 3D controls in WPF, but was mildly surprised to find that there were no primitive solid controls in WPF - I just wanted to plop a few spheres and cubes in a scene, but didn't realize I had to render them using meshes. Surely someone has created libraries of 3d primitives that can be added to WPF 3D scen...

My VB.NET application compiles, installs and works fine on the development PC. However, when I take the install package elsewhere, it installs ok but crashes before any code is executed. The error is " has encountered a problem and needs to close..." I have removed all references to external files e.g. icon files etc. I have only one...
Typically, when I use lambdas, I just use "a, b, c, d..." as variable names as the types are easily inferred, and I find short names to be easier to read. Here is an example: var someEnumerable = GetSomeEnumerable(); var somethingElseList = someEnumerable.Select(a => a.SomeProperty) .OrderBy(a => a...
We have a collection of C# (.NET 2.0) applications that have custom dialog windows. When the user changes the default font size and resolution etc in Windows the edges of the form lose controls (they get pushed off the visible portion of the form) typically dropping off buttons from the bottom. This is problematic for us and will cause i...
I have a .NET MVC winform app. I've created an AppDelegate class that handles application startup and shutdown...for now (it might do more later). Winform apps have a Program.cs file that does some app initialization, starts the message pump and creates the first form. In my app, the first form is AppDelegate, which isn't really a fo...
