• serimc ilasm FW 2.0 backward compiling?!?!

  Hello, I just want to know if there's some parameter to compile file into FW 1.1 instead of 2.0, thanks a lot Paolo Thanks a lot! Sory Paolo, the compilers that ship with the v2.0 CLR will only create assemblies that the v2.0 CLR will understand.  If you need an assembly that can be read by both v1.1 and v2.0, you'll need to install the v1.1 framework and use that ve ...Show All

• MarkTheNuke Can MS release SSCLI under a BSD License ?

  Why don't you folks release SSCLI under a BSD license Making it available on FreeBSD under anything but a BSD license is a sure way to make the code rot into oblivion. Besides, by now the commercial .NET version should be so much ahead of the SSCLI that releasing the SSCLI with a BSD license shouldn't be that much of a threat to MS. Release SSCLI under a BSDL and the BSD types may also jump on the .NET bandwagon in addition to the Mono/Lin ...Show All

• NHJ VERY slow binary serialization of strings coming from SQL

  Please help! This is probably the weirdest issue I've ever encountered. I'm trying, in C#, to binary serialize an array of strings that come from a SQL Server 2000 database.  Problem is, this takes orders of magnitude longer than if the strings don't come from the database. The EXACT same 35000-length array of strings takes 0.1 seconds to serialize if the strings don't come from the database, and 40(!) seconds to serialize if they do. So ...Show All

• iicDotnet Bug in ADO.NET 2.0 using SQL Server 7?

  We were using .NET 1.1 against SQL Server 7 just fine. When we switched to .NET 2.0 we found that the connection pooling against SQL Server 7 no longer works. As a side note we would like to upgrade from SQL Server 7, but we currently have a number of integrated third party packages that make this a very large task. I traced the connection pooling issue to the connection setting Connection Reset with a value of true. It you set Connection Res ...Show All
