• Visual C# Pass by Whatever

  Hi! I am confused by the insistence of both Java and C# that passing a reference type is not pass-by-reference but pass-by-value. I take it that since you get a copy of the reference, they consider it pass-by-value Then, what is passed in pass-by-reference A handle (pointer to a pointer) And, if so, isn't it a copy of the handle that's being passed As you can see, I am missing something. Please, lay it out simply for me. (Pass-by-value--I ...Show All

  Hi, I'm using VB in VS2005 on a WXP SP2 machine to build a windows service that listens to a port to accept messages. This solution works fine when a connecting client sends a message, waits for an ACK and disconnects. We now want the socket to remain OPEN after sending the ACK, which it used to do on beta2 and older machines. Does anyone know which property to set or another solution to keep the socket open after the send. Any i ...Show All
