- how to remove all rows from a strongly typed datatable Remember, when you clear the rows - it will clear it ONLY in the datatable, the data ALREADY STILL exists on the database end and has no idea that you deleted those rows locally, until you execute the Update() command, which will modify the database appropriately.

- Using OWC11 on remote server I am trying to use OWC11 to generate graphs on the fly. This works fine on my local machine running VisualStudio. I then transfered it to our test server where it did not work until I downloaded and installed OWC11. I am mow trying to get it to run on our Hosted web platform where, unfortunately, I cannot install OWC11 . First I got the error relating to the web.config: < add assembly = " Microsoft.Office.Interop.Owc11, Version=11.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=71E9BCE111E9429C " /> that the DLL could not be found. I then added the Microsoft.Office.Interop.OWC11.dll to the bin directory of the website and this problem was fixed. My problem is when I try and use the assembly to create a chartspace object: ChartSpace1 = New Microsoft.Office.Interop.Owc11.ChartSpace() This line fails with the error: Retrieving the COM class factory for component with CLSID {0002E55D-0000-0000-C000-000000000046} failed due to the following error: 80040154. I cannot get this to work. Please can someone tell me which other DLLs I need to include in the Bin directory to make it work. Remember I can't install anything or edit the registry keys of the remote machine. Thank you very much Colin Tag: .NET Framework Setup Auto Update on Windows Service? .NET Development

- nested classes with arrays not working?? Suggestions: 1) Make sure to upgrade to Visual Studio 2005 SP1 2) Never, ever, use the Add Web Site command. Instead, use "Add New Project->ASP.NET Web Service". I have no idea how to debug a "web site" type of service. I have little desire to learn how. Perhaps you should start a new thread on "How To Debug a Web Site Web Service ". My guess would be that you should go to the ASMX file, click on the line where you want a breakpoint and then set the breakpoint from the Debug menu (the keystrokes are different VB to C#, so I don't know what the keystroke is). Then use the Debug menu to do "Start Debugging". Maybe it will "just work". If not, then add a Try/Catch block as follows: Try '..' your code here Catch ex As Exception Debug.WriteLine(ex.ToString()) End Try Add an appropriate TraceListener to your web.config. Something like this: Code Snippet <configuration> <system.diagnostics> <trace autoflush="false" indentsize="4"> <listeners> <add name="myListener" type="System.Diagnostics.TextWriterTraceListener" initializeData="TextWriterOutput.log" /> <remove name="Default" /> </listeners> </trace> </system.diagnostics> </configuration> This is from the article TraceListener Class . Then take a look at the log file to see what your problem is. It might not be what you expect. Personally, I expect it's a NullReferenceException caused by the fact that you didn't initialize your arrays. Tag: .NET Framework Setup Auto Update on Windows Service? .NET Development

- How to set a Property ReadOnly dynamically based on another property value. Hi, I am sorry if I am not able to explain my requirement in the Subject. What I want is, I have a class with two Properties like HasSubMenu, and SubMenu Collection, object of this class is bound to property grid. The class i sgiven below. Code Snippet class Menu { private bool m_HasSubMenu; private List<Menu> m_SubMenu; [Browsable(true)] public bool HasSubMenu { get { return m_HasSubMenu; } set { m_HasSubMenu = value; } } [Browsable(true)] [ReadOnly(true)] public List<Menu> SubMenu { get { return m_SubMenu; } set { m_SubMenu = value; } } } This object of this class (initially with HasSubMenu false and an empty SubMenu Collection) is bound to a property grid. Now that I have a ReadOnlyAttribute set for SubMenu property this collection is read only and user can't edit in the property grid. But what I want is if the user changes the HasSubMenu property to true I want this collection to be editable (I mean somehow I want to make this ReadOnly attribute of SubMenu property false.) I am not able to figure out how should I do this. Any help will be highly appreciated Regards, Vinod S Nair Tag: .NET Framework Setup Auto Update on Windows Service? .NET Development

- Why ReaderWriterLock not release writer lock if inclusive read lock inside writer Lock was The problem is that you acquire a read lock while you already have the write lock. From the "Note" section of the AcquireReadLock() documentation: If the current thread already has the writer lock, no reader lock is acquired. Instead, the lock count on the writer lock is incremented. This prevents a thread from blocking on its own writer lock. The result is exactly the same as calling AcquireWriterLock, and an additional call to ReleaseWriterLock is required when releasing the writer lock. In other words, LockReader() in the "thre" thread will not get a reader lock but an extra writer lock. You'll bomb when you test only for IsReaderLockHeld. Change the finally clause in LockReader like this: finally { if (_rwl.IsReaderLockHeld || _rwl.IsWriterLockHeld) { _rwl.ReleaseReaderLock(); } The normal use for ReaderWriterLock is for just one thread doing the writing and no reading, many threads doing the reading. You can make your usage consistent by simply not acquiring the reader lock if you already hold the writer lock. Tag: .NET Framework Setup Auto Update on Windows Service? .NET Development

- SMTP Mail without SMTP Service Check for networking problems first. Make sure your Win2k box where the issue occurs can see the SMTP server. Ping the server from the Win2k box. Basically the SmtpClient constructor wants a resolvable network address. Your development box can see the server (because it works) and the Win2k box probably can't (hence the timeout) presumably both using the same server address in the SmtpClient constructor. As you've noticed the SMTP service on the machines from which you are SENDING email has nothing to do with it. The SMTP service is an SMTP server; ie it will accept/forward email sent to it.

- How to dispose TcpListener's holding port? Two other point should be raised: 1. Are you closing any accepted connections too If the TcpListener has returned N connections via AcceptSocket/AcceptTcpClient, then all the N connections must be closed too. 2. TCP (the protocol) mandates that a port cannot be reused with two minutes (etc) of the last connection using that port closing. So don't expect to be able to restart the listener within that period. In a command prompt use "netstat -a" and look for instances using your server port; still connected connections will be ESTABLISHED, and those in the second situation will be in TIME_WAIT.

- XmlSerialization attributes: difference between [XmlElement(...)] and [XmlElementAttribute(...)] While familiarizing myself with XML Serialization and controlling serialization using attributes, I've become confused whether there is a different between the use of "XmlElement" or "XmlElementAttribute" in actually writing the attribute in a class declaration, and in general for any serialization attribute. For example, consider the following class: public class Test { public: // public, parameterless constructor req'd for serialization Test(void) {} public: [XmlElement("Member1")] int m_Member1; [XmlElementAttribute("Member2")] int m_Member2; } Even MSDN doesn't seem quite clear on which to use. From the code I've seen, it sounds like XmlElementAttribute is the object in the .NET framework that handles this, but I am to use "XmlElement" while actualing writing the attribute. In contrast, I have seen other code that appends the "Attribute" part of the object name. What is the difference, and which is correct Anjo Tag: .NET Framework Setup Auto Update on Windows Service? .NET Development

- SqlDependency timeout problem I'm on XP, SqlSever 2005, .NETfx 3. I'm using SqlDependency to get notifications of changes to my data store. My intent is that when I set up a SqlDependency object, that it will be in effect "forever". However, I find that after 2 minutes or so, changes will not trigger notifications anymore. I initialize the dependency once per app domain thusly: SqlDependency .Start(_connectionString); this ._dependencyConnection = new SqlConnection (_connectionString + "Connection Timeout=" + Int32 .MaxValue.ToString()); _dependencyConnection.Open(); I set up a new notification (once at startup, and after each notification) like this: SqlCommand command = new SqlCommand ( "SELECT Revision FROM dbo.ConfigData where [Key] = '" + _ourKey + "'" , _dependencyConnection); SqlDependency dependency = new SqlDependency (command, null , Int32 .MaxValue); dependency.OnChange += new OnChangeEventHandler ( this .OnChange); SqlDataReader reader = command.ExecuteReader(); reader.Close(); This will fire notifcation for a change that happens within 2 minutes or so. After that, nothing. What am I missing here Thanks Riley Tag: .NET Framework Setup Auto Update on Windows Service? .NET Development

- define a new querydef in an access db using asp.net My scenario is this: I have inherited a large access database, critical to a website.

The obvious soluition is to ftp the db locally, modify the file and upload it. But If possible I do not want to do this. I don't want to lose data and I don't want to take the db offline.

How can I connect to an access db to do these kind of operations As far as I can tell, the regular OleDbConn does not allow me to do these operations - rather I need to use the access object model.

- The located assembly's manifest definition does not match the assembly reference. Does anyone know how to have two versions of the same .dll file referenced in the same .net application Let me explain. I have an application that dynamically loads forms contained in other assymblies. The assymblies are in seperate folders with all of the .dlls necessary to run that form in the same folder. The problem I am having is that each of these forms use the same .dll file with different versions. I keep running into the following error when my application tries to open one of these forms: The located assembly's manifest definition does not match the assembly reference. I know that this means that one of my dynamically loaded forms is finding the wrong version of the assymbly needed for that form. I'm assuming this is because it's loading the assymbly for the other form. I am not sure why this is happening. I thought that if I kept the .dlls for the forms seperate in their own folders that it would use those first when loading the assymbly for that form. I have read other posts that would suggest that as long as my assymblies are not strongly typed (which they are not) that the assymbly resolution will look locally for the needed assymbly. My only guess is that since the .dlls that are needed for the form are in a folder seperate from the initially run application that it is by default looking in the GAC because it can't find it locally. This is my suspicion since if I copy the .dll that is giving me the problem to the folder running my main loader application then my form runs fine. If that is the case then I don't know how to make sure that each of my forms uses the correct version of their respective assymblies since I can't very well copy two versions of the same file into the same folder. I have searched and searched and tried everything I can think of with no luck. Any ideas If examples are needed I can see if I can post screen captures somehow.

Have the service remote to an installed item that contains the biz logic and is easier to update.

Cant he programatically stop the service, update necessary binaries (dll's), and then restart the service If the .exe itself is being updated then im guessing you may have to programatically installutil /u and the installutil it again... hopefully its the first case.

Re: .NET Framework Setup Auto Update on Windows Service?
ADeveloperNamedTim
I thought about doing it that way but was not sure if you could call installutil /u programatically. Anyone know if you can Also I haven't started looking at how this will work with Vista, but I will have to support it.
Re: .NET Framework Setup Auto Update on Windows Service?
LMiranda
well, if you cannot do it programatically, you can have a batch file that contains the correct commands. then, the 'upgrade.exe' application you make, can invoke the batch file
the batch file will need to stop, uninstall/override any dll's, and restart the service
if you want to do this ALL in the service, then yes, im thinking the only thing you can update are dll's... and if anything looks like you will need to somehow 'unload' them from memory first... im thinking the first option may be do-able...

You can just stop the service programmatically and then replace the service binary (exe)..

Maybe make a service that monitors for the condition of update. When found stop the target service, copy the exe and restart it.
