• Visual C++ ultra fast binary writes

  Hello, can anyone please help... This is a bit of a general question. My C knowledge is limited to the K&R book. I have used the fsutil tool on windows xp and noticed that the command: fsutil file createnew c:\$delthis.bin  1234567890  which creates a file over a gigabyte in size is extremely fast - it takes about a second on a PIII 800MHz with 256MB memory. This seems to be amazing given that it zeros the whole file, rather than simply creating a directory entry. If I wanted to code a 10 line program in C to do exactly the same (for simplicity with hard coded values -  no parameter options) and run just as quick ...Show All

• Visual Studio How do I create an application.extension.config file using MSBuild?

  Hi, I'm using MSBuild to build an executable program (exe) from VB.net source code. How do I get MSBuild to output an ApplicationName.exe.config file Thanks, Damian MSBuild does not generate .CONFIG files on its own.  The only thing it can do for you is copy an existing .CONFIG file from your project to the final bin directory.  So, if you have a file in your project called "APP.CONFIG", then MSBuild will copy this file to the bin directory as " AssemblyName .EXE.CONFIG". ...Show All

• .NET Development Secure Class Library: Raise events from minimum permission assembly

  Hello, I'm writing a class library as a wrapper to another unmanaged DLL. That unmanaged DLL has functions that do callbacks. For those functions, I created internal delegates which were sent as function pointers. When the delegates were called back from the unmanaged DLL, I raised events that I created as wrappers to those functions. All worked well up to this point. Then, I tried to create a secure class library. For my assembly, I requested minimum permissions of UnmanagedCode and ControlAppDomain, and refused any other permissions. SecurityExceptions started to occur. After a while of tracing and debugging, it se ...Show All
