I have a UserControl containing TextBoxes and ComboBoxes and this UserControl is contained in a Panel with AutoScroll set to True. When a textbox has the focus and I scroll with the mouse wheel, then the panel scrolls, when a combobox has the focus and I scroll with the mouse wheel then the selected item in the combobox changes. I'm su...
I'm sure it's something really stupid, but I just don't see it.. pData.LocationHours is of type BaseLocationHoursDataSet.LocationHoursDataTable. Yet when I hover the cursor over l, all I see is "(range variable) TSource l" - why is that?? Why doesn't linq know what it's dealing with? I try the same thing with a different DataTable a...
Without using any third party tools, what is the ideal way to provide JSON response data? I was thinking of having an ASPX application page to just return the json string response. Any ideas? ...
The code below reads everything there is to read from tcp client stream, and on the next iteration it will just sit there on the Read() (i'm assuming waiting for data). How can I ensure it doesn't and just returns when there's nothing there to read? Do I have to set low timeout, and respond to an exception when it fails out? Or there's a...
Hi, I have a WCF service that works ok if I create the service without specifying any binding or endpoint (it reads it from the generated values in the App.config when I registered the WCF via Visual Studio). I have a simple method that returns the service reference: return new SmsServiceReference.SmsEngineServiceClient(); This work...
I need to pass configuration settings to an AddIn created using the Managed AddIn Framework (MAF, aka System.AddIn). Can a put a settings parameter in the AddIn's constructor? Another option would be to create an Initialize() method, but then I have to remember to call it before doing any work with the AddIn. ...

At the moment this database is not available via a web interface etc, but one day is likely to. The remote access information includes the usernam...
Hi, I have configured the web service to use Json as described on this blog: http://www.west-wind.com/weblog/posts/164419.aspx and various other blogs, but I couldn't create a client to consume this service. I tried various things, but invariably I got meaningless exceptions. What is the correct way to implement the (WCF I should add) c...
Hi, I have a Powershell script that is loading a .NET assembly (.EXE in my case) and calling a public method that uses the app.config to pull an encrypted connection string. The script dynamically copies the assembly's exe.config over to the Powershell ($pshome) folder as powershell.exe.config and is able to run from my development box...
I have a .Net app with dll's that some of them were compiled with .Net 1.1 and some with 2.0. How does such an application work - isn't there only one runtime for an application? If so which is it? If not how are objects being passed between the runtimes? ...
The problem is simple I have a process, that does ETL on some xml files. We started getting really large xml files and I started getting OutOfMemoryExceptions. Fixing the process is relatively simple. However, I'd like to make a unit test for my NUnit suite to make sure the process will continue to be able to handle really large files. ...
I'm looking for something nice and simple. For example: RunAfter(3, delegate() { z = 5; }); // run after 3 seconds FnThatTakes5Seconds(); In my cases I want to test some threading code and have something happen in the middle of another function call. ...
I am using migrator.net to handle database migrations for SQL Server, and I like it so far. The only issue I've run into is how best to migrate changes to views. Thus far, I've been managing each update as a separate script file (which recreates the view). This lets me go back to previous versions of the view without duplicating the c...

I have an ojbect with a function that takes an out argument. I want to call this function using reflection's Invoke. However, I can't find a way to specify that it's an out argument, as it is returned null. Class Foo { void Do(out string a){ a="fx call"; } } Foo f = new Foo(); string param = string.Empty; f.GetType().GetMethod("Do...

It has a large number of UI elements - dockable toolbars, custom tree controls, context menus, etc. It is an image processing application so the main views render themselves using DirectX and OpenGL. The product is about 10 years old and one of the priorities here is t...
I've got a sharepoint workflow with a state where I'm waiting to see what changes the user makes to the list item the workflow is attached to. My state has a "OnWorkflowItemChanged" activity. On that activity I've bound the "AfterProperties" and "BeforeProperties" which created the following members in the code behind: public Hashta...
I want to write a simple C# console application to change the current directory of the command line to a directory the application works out. Looking through MSDN System.IO.Directory.SetCurrentDirectory looks ideal for this until I saw in the remarks that: 'When the application terminates, the working directory is restored to its ...
