GC.Collect in a loop?
I found this piece of code inside System.Web.ISAPIRuntime using Reflector public void DoGCCollect() { for (int i = 10; i > 0; i--) { GC.Collect(); } } Can anyone comment on this? Is there a reason to do GC.Collect() in a loop? Why 10 times and not 3, 5 or 20? Analysis indicated that it's not used inside .net framew...

Is there a Breakpoint Plugin for Visual Studio?
Background In some sufficiently large applications, you can spend more time figuring out how to drill down to the various layers than you do actually debugging: That's the case with a piece of software I work on now. Layout/separation of concerns issues aside, it'd be nice to have a breakpoint plug-in that would allow you to load break...
Separated string created in loop
I'm searching the best way to create a string separated with another in a loop. I mean, for example, SQL reader: StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder(); while(reader.Read()) { sb.Append(reader[0]); sb.Append("<br />"); } string result = sb.ToString(); result = result.Remove(result.LastIndexOf("<br />")); // <- or creating SQL quer...
DllImport with different entry points (different DLLs for the same import in different projects)
As a follow-up to my recent question about .NET Compact Framework debugging, I am currently trying to use OpenGL ES from both a .NET Compact Framework and a .NET Framework application. I use this wrapper, which has been created for OpenGL ES and imports from libGLES_CM.dll. To make debugging easier, I created a .NET Framework applicatio...

In Perl I can skip a foreach (or any loop) iteration with a next; command. Is there a way to skip over an iteration and jump to the next loop in C#? foreach (int number in numbers) { if (number < 0) { // What goes here to skip over the loop? } // otherwise process number } ...
Wanted: Cross-process synch that doesn't suffer from AbandonedMutexException
I have several threads that acquire Mutexes and then terminate. The mutexes are stored in a main repository, and are properly released when the program exists. However, when the thread that allocated a Mutex exists, the mutex gets released automatically, and subsequent acquire AbandonedMutexException (also according to the documentation...

How do I find out whether a control is currently invalidating?
I'm writing a custom DataGridView cell class that hosts a control. I'm listening to the Invalidated event to know whether I should reposition and repaint the cell, but I'm getting loops because repositioning the cell can invalidate other hosted cells, which then invalidate the first one, and so on. I don't want to use a static member t...
Can I have an 'offscreen' control?
I'm trying to create a DataGridView cell class which hosts a control (all the time, not just while editing). So far, my approach has been to add the control to the grid and try to synchronise its position with that of the cell. Would it be possible instead to keep the cell offscreen, route mouse and keyboard events to it, and paint it ...

Implementing MVC with Windows Forms
Where can I find a good example on how to completely implement the MVC pattern in Windows Forms. I found many tutorials and code examples on various sites (e.g. CodeProject, .NetHeaven) but many are more representative for the observer pattern than MVC. Since the application I want to develop is for a school project, I am reluctant to us...
Using a C++ header with .NET language
I trying to use a ".h" file from Windows SDK in a .NET language (maybe C#), but without success. This header exposes some Windows Media player functionality through COM. If I use Win32 C++, I can use it with no problems, so I thought that I could use Managed C++ as a "Bridge" to expose it to C#. The header file is the subscriptionservic...
