In VS2008, C#, I've created a unit test (VS unit test) that calls some code which in turn calls Log4Net and logs some information. This works. If I create a thread in the unit test to call the same code I'm getting "Failed to parse config file" exception from Log4Net. Any ideas why it would not be able to parse the config file from the...

The order of the lock in the IsDepleted property doesn't solves the problem. Removing lock(WaitingQueue) from the IsDepleted property solves the deadlock, but thi...
The Asp.Net membership provider has some clear uses in a web app. I am thinking about trying to leverage some of the features in a windows application (more specifically WPF).

I am developing a rich client application that will use the Entity Framework (with DevArt's DotConnect for Oracle) to connect to a central Oracle database.

When the user opens the form, the process is started, and hid, then when the form is closing the process is killed. However, when the form is opened again, it doesn't hide the window (and sometimes doesn't the f...
I'm trying to move some table storage in Azure from local storage to the cloud. I had been using the "devstoreaccount1" for local access, but I'm not sure what I need to put there for moving to the cloud. It's not the user account I used to sign up for my Azure accounts, is it? That's just my email address, and that didn't seem to wor...
