This KB Article says that ASP.NET's Response.End() aborts a thread. Reflector shows that it looks like this: public void End() { if (this._context.IsInCancellablePeriod) { InternalSecurityPermissions.ControlThread.Assert(); Thread.CurrentThread.Abort(new HttpApplication.CancelModuleException(false)); } ...
Hello everyone, My question is from the below MSDN link about deep zoom, When ViewportWidth is 1, it means the picture is never zoomed in and never zoomed out, and displayed at its original size (original size I mean the width and height defined in picture header), correct? 2. My confusion is, when we use deep zoom composer, the tota...
As I understand it there's a 2 GB limit on single instances in .NET. I haven't paid a lot of attention to that since I have mainly worked on 32 bit OS so far. On 32 but it is more or less an artificial limitation anyway. However, I was quite surprised to learn that this limitation also applies on 64 bit .NET. Since collections such as L...
When a remoting client creates a TcpClientChannel object, it listens on an (unspecified) port. What for? A single tcp connection to the server is already a full duplex, so why listen? ...
I just had a simple question, but I cannot seem to find a straightforward answer. I've been wondering this for a while, though. I have seen several programmers use & and + for string manipulation. Such as: dim firstvar as string dim secondvar as string dim thirdvar as string thirdvar = firstvar & secondvar Or is it: thirdvar = ...
I'm writing a .net win app that loads foreign assemblies and executes third party scripts. I am looking for a way to sanitize the code executed by the foreign script, and only allow the third party scripts access to a defined set of websites. Creating a PermissionSet with its state set to none, and then adding the desired websites, and s...

I am working on a program which will be used on mobile devices (Full Windows install) that may have 3G connectivity. If the particular device does have 3G connectivity, we would like to take advantage of it. However, the program should be able to prioritize communication based on what type of connection and speed are currently availabl...
Is there a way to look through the cache for all objects in the cache? I'm dynamically creating objects and I need to periodically go through the list to purge out objects I'm no longer using. ...
I'm trying to find out how to programmatically (I'm using C#) determine the name (or i.p.) of servers to which my workstation has current maps. In other words, at some point in Windows Explorer I mapped a network drive to a drive letter (or used "net use w: " to map it). I know how to get the network drives on the system: DriveInfo[] ...
I'm trying to write a managed library in C# that will act as an event source for an existing C++ event sink. The problem I'm having is that when the unmanaged app calls AtlAdvise to get the connection point map for my library it is getting the error "0x80040200" (CONNECT_E_NOCONNECTION) - There are a couple of MSDN articles about that er...

I'm going to be starting a long running process, and much later in the process' lifetime it's going to attempt some things that require admin privileges. I'd like to be able to test up front if the user has those rights rather than later on....
I am trying to figure out when and why to use a Dictionary or a HashTable. I have done a bit of a search on here and have found people talking about the generic advantages of the Dictionary which I totally agree with, which leads the boxing and unboxing advantage for a slight performance gain. But I have also read the Dictionary will n...
Hi all, Currently our .NET application constructs XML data in memory that we persist to a SQL Server database. The XElement object is converted to a string using ToString() and then stored in a varchar(MAX) column in the DB. We dind't want to use the SQL XML datatype as we didn't need any validation and SQL doesn't need to query the XML...

I'm having problems with a slow memory leak in my mixed mode C++/CLR .NET application. (It's C++ native static libraries linked into a VS2008 C++/CLR Windows Forms app with the "/clr" compiler setting) Typical behaviour: app starts using 30 MB (private memory). Then leaks memory slowish, say a MB every hour when running under simulated...
