    • smart client / winform encryption tool
      • have found the need to encrypt many of my files across many deployments. So I wrote a winform encryption tool, and borrowed from an MSDN article to encrypt web config files. You can download both here.

    • give application .net framework permissions
      • I have an application that writes a text file to a folder in the users C:// drive. This application is run from a network folder by multiple users and it gets this error:

        Request for the permission of type ‘System.Security.Permissions.FileIO.Permission.mscorlib.

        It says to grant this application the required permission use the .NET Framework Configuration tool. I can get it to work by creating a code group in the configuration tools but I was wondering if there is a way to do this in the application itself

    • debugging objects with multiple (virtual) inheritance
      • Hi all,
        I have got a rather complex multiple inheritance tree to separate interfaces from actual implementations. Problem is that the debugger cannot resolve the complete type info, which is rather frustrating during development. In the example below I can debug 'obj' with all members but using the pointer 'ptr' I only get access to the upper classes in the inheritance tree. Is there a way to elegantly solve this problem
        Stefan
        // classes on the API side
        class API_Obj
        {
        public:
        API_Obj() {}
        };
        class API_Device : public virtual API_Obj
        {
        public:
        API_Device() {}
        };
        class API_DeviceXYZ : public virtual API_Device
        {
        public:
        API_DeviceXYZ() {}
        };
        // class that implements interface of API_Obj
        class IMPL_Obj : public virtual API_Obj
        {
        public:
        IMPL_Obj() : m_IMPL_Obj(1) {}
        int m_IMPL_Obj;
        };
        // class that implements an API_Device (needs to inherit impl of API_Obj)
        class IMPL_Device : public virtual API_Device, public virtual IMPL_Obj
        {
        public:
        IMPL_Device() : m_IMPL_Device(2) {}
        int m_IMPL_Device;
        };
        // class that implements a special device
        class IMPL_DeviceXYZ : public virtual IMPL_Device, public virtual API_DeviceXYZ
        {
        public:
        IMPL_DeviceXYZ() : m_IMPL_DeviceXYZ(3) {}
        int m_IMPL_DeviceXYZ;
        };

        int main()
        {
        IMPL_DeviceXYZ obj;
        API_DeviceXYZ* ptr = dynamic_cast<API_DeviceXYZ*>(&obj);

    • drawing on texture
      • Hi :)

        Background:
        I have a very large 2D (tile-based) game map that I want to represent in a smaller window when the user hits a key. What I plan to do is create a small texture representation of that map when it is initially loaded and then display it when necessary. This texture would be a 512x512 pixel grid of which I need to colorize/set about 20% of the pixels at runtime.

        Question:
        Can someone please explain how to draw individual colored pixels directly on a Texture2D texture The XNA help on using SetData<T> is scarce at best and I am unsure of what type of info to pass into it.

        TIA!

    • permission denied error - daily dilbert gadget
      • Hey Guys
        ;i have created a DailyDilbert a Windows Sidebar Gadget which can be downloaded from
        ;http://www.codeproject.com/useritems/DailyDilbert.asp
        ;Although the Gadget is working great i am getting this complain from few of the users that they recieve permission denied Error when the HTTPRequest object tries to get the RSS xml feed from a third party website
        ;Comment from a user ;
        " However, when I try to run it using Vista Enterprise 64bit, the gadget encounters an "permission denied" eror when running the getRSS() function. I printed out the exception and e.name is "Error" and e.message is "permission denied". I have reinstalled the gadget several times, each time unzipping the package and putting it in the directory “%userprofile%\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows Sidebar\Gadgets”. I also turned off UAC to no avail, and even modified the security settings in IE7 to low. I am guessing it is either something really simple I am overlooking or it is a Vista permissions thing---although I am system admin with full permissions enabled "
        ;I also encountered this error once but i am unable to simulate the problem
        ;What all could be possible causes for this , i am as clueless as dilbert.
        ;Thanks

    • old code issues...
      • I use VB6 at school, and was quite used to doing the following:
        number = txtbox1.txt
        mumber = number+42
        lbl1.caption = number
        Why does it not work with the new version, and hw can I fix it
        What I am looking for is a way to get text (in this case numbers) from a textbox, manipulate it, and output it to a label. How can I do this Also., for later purposes, how do I directly output a textbox to label

    • why vfp locks this table
      • I have the following code:

        SET EXCLUSIVE OFF
        CLOSE DATABASES ALL

        USE KRCBP!RUGINV ORDER RUGNO IN 0
        USE TMPRUG IN 0

        SELECT TMPRUG
        SET RELATION TO RUGNO INTO ruginv
        BROWSE FIELDS RUGNO,DESIGN=ruginv.DESIGN


        When the user starts typing in the first field (rugno, in the tmprug table), it locks the ENTIRE second file (ruginv). The lock gets released only when moving the record pointer.

        Any ideas why VFP locks the second file Is there a way out of this

        Thanks.

    • "make depend" from .net gui
      • Hi,
        I build from gui (F5).
        My foo.cpp depends on foo.h which depends on bar.h.
        I modify bar.h and VC++.NET doesn't rebuild foo.cpp
        (actually received from updated file from source control through ClearCase)

        This sounds like a newbie question but no-one can answer around me, and I can not believe there is no replacement to traditional "make depend" that unix users trust.

        How to change default behaviour to force .NET to "detect" dependencies in include statements and build accurately projects
        (instead of rebuilding all everytime of course)

        Thanks,
        J-Paul Gabrielli
