I have used .Net 3.5 and VS 2008 for more than a month. Like most .Net developers, I have evolved from years experience in .Net 1.0 & 2.0 and VS 2005. Just recently, I discovered the simplicity and power of LINQ and Lamda Expressions, as in my recent questions such as Find an item in list by LINQ, Convert or map a class instance to a lis...
Good Day, I have some small transparent gif images (under 100x100) and wrote the following code to iterate through all the pixels to give me the RGB values: private void IteratePixels(string filepath) { string dataFormat = String.Empty; Bitmap objBitmap = new Bitmap(filepath); int counter = 0; for (int y = 0; y < objBit...
If an exception propagates all the way up to the top of my application (which, of course, will never happen), I would like to offer the option of sending an error report to me before the program crashes. What I have in mind is wrapping everything in the Main function in a try-catch, and a little class that sends the stack trace and other...

I am using XML serialization to read a large user input file. If there is a semantic error in the input that is not discovered during reading, I'd like to be able to tell the user where (file, line, column) they can find the offending element. Is this possible with XML serialization? CLARIFICATION: The code in question is an IoC conta...
I'm trying to create a treeview in a VB 2008 project that shows all the elements and attributes of an XML Schema. The MSDN documentation for XML schemas seems to imply that by loading the schema into an XMLSchemaSet and compiling it I should get access to all the elements and attributes with their values but this doesn't seem to work in...

I set a dependency to the Core solution in my solution properties. However, Core. brings up nothing. Furthermore, my other C# project...

Particularly, because we have frequent deployments and I've been doing them by hand. I'm looking for sort of the "standard" .NET deployment tool that can be utilized with an ASP.NET MVC project ...

I use Appfuse in Java to crank out a quick web app pre-configured with the front-end and backend frameworks of my choice. Appfuse used ANT or Maven to build a web application. Seeing as .net has equivalent frameworks & tools to Java, i.e. ANT and NANT, Hibernate and NHibernate, log4j and log4net, Spring and Spring.Net; Is there an eq...
What I mean is: Imagine we have a 8 byte variable that has a high value and low value. I can make one pointer point to the upper 4 bytes and other point to the lower 4 bytes, and set/retrieve their values without problems. Now, is there a way to get/set values for anything smaller than a byte? If instead of dividing it in two 4 bytes "va...
I'm interested in simulating a number of clients attempting to invoke a WCF service simultaneously and I need to measure the average response time for each client. Are there any good tools available for load/stress testing WCF services which have multiple end points(wsHttp, netTCP etc). I've heard that SOAPUI is the most prevalent testi...
