• .NET Development Using version independent references

  Is there a way to reference an assembly and not be bound to a specific version of that assembly If the version of our product is 1.0.300.1 and I build applications that reference this assembly, it appears that I am locked into a version of 1.0.300.x. I understand I can increment the last digit without affecting references, but what if I want to upgrade my application to version 2 (IE 2.0.0.0). It appears I break compatibility even though my interface may not have changed. Thanks for any help on this, Rich You can use a publisher policy to allow a later version of an assembly to load. ...Show All

• Visual C# Accessing a classes public object through an interface

  Hi, I have a class that has a public array list, this class is used through an interface and im wondering how i can access my public object through the interface Thanks for any help, -Dave You can only access members declared in the interface through that interface. So, if you want to access the ArrayList through it, you will need to declare it as a property of the interface. You will then have to implement it as a property on your class (not a field), which you should be doing already. ...Show All

  Hello, I have a question about declaring arrays. Here is my array I’ve declared which contains 3 string. string [] strName = new string [3]; I am trying to pass this string array to a DLL that is created in Delphi and the declaration is looks like this. strName : Array [0..3] of String[128]; As you can see in Delphi, they can declare a string array that has 3 items in it and then can define the string length to 128 at declaration. When I passed my array to Delphi DLL, I got SEHException. I assume it’s because of string structure which I cannot limit to ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Communication between 2 different workflows

  I have a host application (a windows service) and 2 different types of state machine workflows. The workflow1 executes a certain amount of workflow2 and waits for the workflows to return. To do this they need to communicate between each other. I thought workflow2 could send an event to workflow1, in order to tell him when he's finished. Everytime a workflow2 returns it send this event to workflow1, so workflow1 can check if the started workflows are all finished. But how can I send events from one workflow to another Any ideas, which dont use wcf Thanks Do I have to set a WaitHandler on the state m ...Show All

• .NET Development Threading problem

  Hi, I have a Windows Form and I need to create another thread to wait for an input somewhere else in the program. When this happens, I will have to access the form and modify it. Right now, this creates an error because I can't access/modify the form from a thread that didn't create it.
