One is a windows application, the other a service process without user interface. The windows application ...Show All

And if I close the app and restart it does not try to update again as if it were in some loop. It appears to ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System CA1305 Specify IFormatProvider concerns

  I'm noticing that code that uses framework methods that accept an IFormatProvider argument are simply passing CultureInfo.CurrentUICulture (including Microsoft code). I'm assuming this is to placate CA1305 warnings, since using CultureInfo.CurrentCulture is what is suggested in the CA1305 documentation--the coder is probably misguidedly assuming CurrentUICulture will have the correct culture because the UI is displayed to the user. (BTW, using C ...Show All

First it would not install because it thought that I didn't have NET Framework 2 installed. Then, I found out after a few hours of searching that I had to use a different download ( ...Show All
