I am wondering if there is a way to capture an image of a running Windows
Application when the user hits a special key sequence to bring up a
"comments" dialog to be used during testing of a new app. This feature would
be cached into a central database along with the comments so that we will
have a picture of what the tester was seeing when opening up the comments
dialogue.

I have a Win Service app that monitors the health of remote servers,
including web services. I would like to raise a WinBalloonTip for
significant events, such as the Death of a connection or service. Is this
possible from a service (or even console app, for that matter), or does it
have to be a WinForms app to do this.

I got this error while signing an unsigned assembly.
ALINK: warning AL1020: Ignoring included assembly 'Validator.dll'
ALINK: error AL1016: No valid input files were specified

This is my AL command : al /out:Validator2.dll /keyfile:myKey.snk
Validator.dll

What am I doing wrong here..

Anyway, my real problem is how to strong name sign an unsigned assembly that
contains unmanaged code. Is this possible. I tried signer.exe but it cannot
handle the non-IL codes in there.

Any help will be highly appreciated

C++ uses static in *exactly* the same way.  From the Visual C++ Language
Reference:

"When modifying a data member in a class declaration, the static keyword
specifies that one copy of the member is shared by all instances of the
class. When modifying a member function in a class declaration, the static
keyword specifies that the function accesses only static members."

Of course this is highly inaccurate.  Static member functions can access
non-static members, both functions and data, as long as an instance of the
class is referenced in the process.  Since the static member function is a
member of the class, it can access private and protected members in this way
as well.

Question about 'public' and 'public static'

My ListView components seem to produce distortion when they are scrolled in
Details view; it looks almost like the text has a "strike-through" attribute
applied to it.

Does anyone know of a fix for this?  If not, is there an alternative
component available (that behaves like a ListView) ?

TIA

PS: this is in VS 2005, SP1 ... I have not checked yet whether vs2008
behaves differently

A.

You want to run
.ExecuteNonQuery

and not the scalar.

2.  You need to provide the datatypes of Va1-Val5.

Read whole thread:
generating C# classes from XSD with Custom Attributes..

I have the need to display a DropDown with 2 options: Yes/No.
I want to bind this control to an entity which represents the field in
question with a bool.

What I've done in the interim is to manually add "YES" and "NO" strings to
the control, then in the SelectedIndexChanged event set the bool value by
performing a string comparison for YES or NO.  This is less than elegant.

I've been thinking of way to set the DataSource of the DropDown that would
allow me to bind straight to the SelectedValue property.  The only thing I
can come up with is to create a small class like:
class YesNoOption
{
private string _display;
private bool _value;
public YesNoOption(string display, bool value)
{
_value = value;
_display = display;
}

//  properties
}

Then create 2 of the above and place in a List.

List<YesNoOption> options = new List<YesNoOption>();
options.Add(new YesNoOption("YES", true));
options.Add(new YesNoOption("NO", false));

comboBoxBindingSource.DataSource = options;

There must be a better way than all of this, no?  This seems like a common
scenario that people would deal with but I haven't been able to find much on
the topic.

Any suggestions or experiences with this scenario?

Thanks,
Steve
