We are still developing on Windows XP. But installing it on a Windows 2008 64 bit system make me feel a little bit uneasy. So are there any...

I've got an application which adds 10+ items to a treelist every second. This causing the control and UI to unresponsive and sometimes can't even paint it enough, also consumes a lot of CPU. These new items coming from different threads so I can't use .BeginUpdate() unless I do some sort of local caching. If I do BeginUpdate() and EndU...
I have a C# Windows Forms application, whose prototype was created on SQL Server (strongly-typed dataset). In its final version, the application must be able to work over SQL Server, MySQL or Oracle. Now I am wondering which parts (if any) can be reused from the prototype. 1. Dataset (typed) ? 2. TableAdapters? (probably not, they conta...
Is there a good, scalable key-value database for .NET? Something like BerkeleyDB or Tokyo Cabinet? Specifically, it should allow to store large number of entries, which are mostly binary blobs. I'm fine if it is just a C-wrapper around some native database, as long as binaries for Win x86/x64 and Linux are available. Of course, a purely...
So I have a program that serves as a sort of 'shell' for other programs. At its core, it gets passed a class, a method name, and some args, and handles the execution of the function, with the idea of allowing other programmers to basically schedule their processes to run on this shell service. Everything works fine except for one issue...

We are using a software library from a major US manufacturer. For years the library had mainly two interfaces, a bunch of C API DLLs and a collection of ActiveX controls which encapsulate the DLL functionality. The ActiveX interface worked pretty well back in the old days of Visual Basic 6. Then .NET appeared with it's COM Interop compat...
I want to display at the bottom of my pages a simple "built in x.yz seconds" text, to easily check various options. (some pages are built using parameters entered in a previous page by a "regular" user, who would like too to see the results of his decisions) I know I can use traces in asp.net, but it's not very user-friendly, and I fear...

Hi, I have a decryption routine in VB6. I now want the same decryption in C#. The strings that need decryption are in unicode, so I use Encoding.Unicode.GetString to read the input in C#. The input now looks exactly the same as in VB6. The first few characters in the loop are decrypted ok! Then I encounter a difference... The program ...
This questions is a follow up on an answer by Paul Alexander to the question "Should interop assemblies be signed?". Depending on how complex your Interop assemblies are - you can generate the proxy code into a separate .CS/.VB file and compile it directly into your assembly. Then you won't have to worry about strong name issues. H...

I'm starting to play with NHibernate to make a case for its use in our company's projects. I've created a branch of one of our solutions and have started to convert some of the data access to using NHibernate as a proof-of-concept. However, while looking at SQL Profiler, I discovered that NHibernate is issuing an update command to the d...
