A method declared in one of Microsoft's Primary Interop assemblies is wrong. It is declared as: void Write(object[] psarray); which is incorrect, and should actually be declared as: void Write([In, MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.SafeArray)] object[] psarray); I need to force the compiler to use [In, MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.SafeArray)], w...
I have been working through a number of very "odd" issues with some DLL versions, Policy Files, and items in the GAC and for the life of me I haven't been able to find a solid answer as to how/why the .NET framework picks the assemblies that it does, when binding project references. First of all to give a bit of history about what we ...
I'm not very experienced in this area - so I've got a few questions. Firstly, do all .Net created DLLs have their own GUID? If not, my question is how do I get one and associate it with the DLL. Then the question is, how do I get the GUID of that dll - ie. given a DLL path (c:\some\path\to\a\file.dll) how do I determine its GUID? Also, ...

Well, as the title says, how can I set an image or anything else as the mouse cursor. I know you can use the built in ones that are part of the Cursors class, but I was wondering if there's a way to use your own image (preferably without P/Invoke, but either way is fine.) EDIT: I guess I didn't explain what I wanted clearly enough. I do...
I'm using the default Sql Workflow Persistence Service to manage workflow persistence in an application I'm developing. I used the scripts provided by Microsoft to generate the schema and logic in a SQL database. Up until now, it's worked great; however, I'd like to change the names of both the tables and stored procedures to comply with...

What are my options to access a ado.net data service from a .net 2.0 client? The client application has to run on Windows 2000 so upgrading to .net 3.5 is not an option. Other than writing my own proxy against the service, any other options out there? ...
It seems that unsigned integers would be useful for method parameters and class members that should never be negative, but I don't see many people writing code that way. I tried it myself and found the need to cast from int to uint somewhat annoying... Anyhow what are you thoughts on this? Duplicate Why is Array Length an Int and ...
