I'm guessing that the kitchen sink is in there somewhere. The .NET class lib seems to have everything, its just a case of finding it.

What we are lacking is a Find option in Anakrino! (unfortunately, I have tried to recompile this masterpiece but couldn't download everything required to do so).

Could have a look at System.IO.FileSystemWatcher

This resolves the things on the server-side, and since I already resolved the client-side problem

This may be totally wrong forum, but I couldn't find a general forum for Visual Studio .NET.
Is there a way to put my own .NET user controls in the IDE toolbox and then just drag and drop them onto my forms? That would be very nice indeed.

Right click the toolbox, select Customize toolbox..., browse for your assembly, and there . Magic! All Component derived classes will be on the toolbox, ready to drag onto the form. NOTE: youre class MUST have a default constructor.

Sweet!
I didn't spot the Browse button before. This is excellent! VS.NET is even smart enough to not lock the assembly. (The control I'm working on is in the same project, thus it's possible to recompile/link)
Thanks for your reply!

It would be easier to click (in project), Add, Inherited UserControl and select the control. Also gives you more control over the UI.

In the next version of VS.NET (2003) it gets easier. Tt has a tab dedicated to user controls in your project so you can just drag/drop from there. The functionality is there in VS.NET 2002 (user controls are at the very bottom of the Windows Forms tab), but it is a bit buggy in that sometimes it doesn't show the controls.
I'm not sure if either version will show user controls that are contained in other projects than the one you are working on.

Heh, that's how I imagined it should work! I think I've dragged pretty much everything in VS.NET that's detachable into that damn toolbox. Thanks to leppie, I sorted it out though. I did manage at one point to drag the code(!?) of the control into the toolbox.

It would be nice if it would work like many Java IDE's: You register a user control as "reusable" and it'll be in the IDE for future use. Preferrably you can label it with a category tag such as "Textboxes", "Listviews", etc. And of course, the IDE should report what assemblies these controls live in so you don't have to search for them all night just before shipment day.. 
I often find myself reimplementing wheels over and over again. I think this would save me a couple of hours per project. This was possible in VC6 with ActiveX controls, I see no reason why it couldn't be the same in VS.NET with .NET controls.

How to add new Components to Process.Container property?
I get a null object reference error when using Process.Container.Add().

Hi all,
Does anyone have a nifty workaround for the fact that a class that uses XML Serialisation is required to have a default constructor?
I've got a class AuthorInfo, that has a readonly ID variable, that is set in the constructor:
//C# Class...
public class AuthorInfo
{
public readonly m_ID;
public AuthorInfo( uint ID )
{
m_ID = ID;
...
...
}
...
...
}
I'd like this class to be serialised to XML but as noted in MSDN:
"A class must have a default constructor to be serialized by XmlSerializer"
I don't really want to create a default constructor for this class, as I'd like to enforce the fact that it can't be created without an ID being supplied.
Can anyone think of a good way to do this? The only thing I can think of off the top of my head is to create an internal helper class that just deals with Serialisaton. That seems a bit messy to me, and would be awkward to use with Web Services (which is what I'm doing).
Any suggestions/comments appreciated...
TIA,
Pete

You could use a Static Constructor to initialise an internal static countID variable to zero, that just gets incremented and stored in a non-static member as a new ID in the default constructor. Other than that and what relationship the ID has to other data its a little difficult to say.

Hi all,
in my C# app I have to call a function in a legacy Win32 DLL. This function fills a complex struct. Unfortunately, I don't know how to port the data structure to .NET. Here's a simple example:
public class Test
{
[StructLayout(LayoutKind.Sequential)]
public class Test
{
int i;
}
[StructLayout(LayoutKind.Sequential)]
public class Test2
{
[MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.ByValArray, SizeConst=10)]
public Test1[] tests;
}
public Test()
{
int size = Marshal.SizeOf(typeof(Test2));
}
}In the constructor, Marshal.SizeOf throws the exception Type Test2 can not be marshaled as an unmanaged structure; no meaningful size or offset can be computed.
How do I marshal fixed size arrays of struct properly?
Thanks in advance.
Regards
Thomas

First, those need to be structs. Second, you may need to specify the Test1 struct size, not just the number of elements. If you expect a variable number of elements, you should look at the SizeParam(?) property of the MarshalAsAttribute to specify the index of a member that specifies the number of elements in the struct array.

Ok, but it doesn't help at the moment.

It's fixed sized, therefore I used SizeConst. 
Thanks anyway.

I had the same problem and the only way is to Marshal it as a byte[] array and not the encapsulating class. If the class has more members, things become a bit more difficult.

In fact, the structurs are cascaded about three levels

I think it is time for a Custom Marshaller. You need to implement this interface.
public interface ICustomMarshaler
{
public void CleanUpManagedData(object ManagedObj);
public void CleanUpNativeData(IntPtr pNativeData);
public int GetNativeDataSize();
public IntPtr MarshalManagedToNative(object ManagedObj);
public object MarshalNativeToManaged(IntPtr pNativeData);
}
And set MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.CustomMarshaler) on the class. From there you should havenough control to marshal just about anything. Note: You can now make classes without Layout.

Hi,
This is my followup to my previous question. Even after I choose to 'End Process'/'End Process Tree' of aspnet_wp.exe, because it is taking too much of resources, it keeps spawning a new instance, and even after ensuring that no HTTP requests are being sent. I have closed all browsers and all VS.NET windows.
And this instance is taking too much of memory too.
What is the problem?

This is default behaviour. In case one application crashes another.

It should not be. ASP.NET is stateless in nature. WHy is it taking so much memory? Can you not unload some memory?

Hi,
How can we control in WindowsXP / Windows 2000 Server how much memory each process is taking. If that is the case, can we restrict the amount of memory that is allocated to ASP.NET Worker Process (aspnet_wp.exe)

Hi all,
I have the following problem, that I am facing. When my ASP.NET page loads and after the page load has completed and even after the browser IE spinner stops spinning, when I check Processes tab in Task Manager, aspnet_wp.exe is still consuming heavy memory and CPU usage is more than 90%. aspnet_wp.exe does not get stopped after page_load is complete.
And very frequently my EventViewer gets so many error messages of the type:
(*) aspnet_wp.exe (PID: 216) was recycled because it was suspected to be in a deadlocked state. It did not send any responses for pending requests in the last 180 seconds.
Why is this happening? I am currently using C#-based ASP.NET application and my backend is IBM DB2 running on RS/6000 AIX server. I am using OLEDB Provider given by IBM DB2 to connect to the database using System.Data.OleDb.
We also frequently get 'Server Application Unavailable' and the following message gets recorded onto the database:
aspnet_wp.exe (PID: 668) stopped unexpectedly.
Please help...
