I have a problem building a Solution. The solution contains 2 projects. Project1 is a DLL that supplies some business logic. Project2 is the Winforms Wizard. I have set the Project2 to be dependent on Project1 to build. Whenever I build the solution I get the following error:
------
The file 'Project1.dll' cannot be copied to the run directory. The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process.
------
I am being driven slowly insane by this one. Please let me know if there is anything that I can do to handle this problem without having to shut down the IDE and destroy the obj directory for Project1.
Thanks in advance for your time and help

I dont know the exact origin but whenever I have this error (very rarely) I switch the CopyLocal property of the reference to false. This way it doesnt copy the dll and thus doesnt have any conflicts

You need to remove the reference to Project 1 from Project 2 whenever you get this error.
Then build Project1. restablish the reference and then build all.
This should resolve the error.

Ravindra,
Thanks for the note. I tried that and it worked. I wonder if the condition will evolve again over time? What is the cause of this problem? Is this something that will be fixed in the IDE?

I use the Process.GetProcessesByName-Method to retreive all processes, having the same name. In certain circumstances this processes run under different users. How can I find out which user runs which process?
Completely different methods than using System.Diagnostics.Process are also appreciated.
Thanks.

You can get this info by using the System.Management namespace functions. I do not have an example in c#, but I have one in vb.net if you are interested.
Basically:
System.Management.ConnectionOptions con = new System.Management.ConnectionOptions;
System.Management.ManagementScope mgmtScope = new System.Management.ManagementScope("\\localhost", con);
System.Management.ObjectQuery objQuery = new System.Management.WqlObjectQuery("SELECT * FROM win32_process");
System.Management.ManagementObjectSearcher objSearch = new Management.ManagementObjectSearcher(mgmtScope, objQuery);
System.Management.ManagementObjectCollection objCol = objSearch.Get;
Object obj;
//Loop through all the processes in objCol to find the one you want.
foreach(System.Management.Object objProc in objCol)
{
//if the obj is the proc you are after
obj = objProc.InvokeMethod("GetOwner",info); //where info is an array look at docs
//I think info[0] is domain and info[1] is user
}
This example code was cobbled together in the message reply editor, and I do not use c# enough to say that these are valid statements, but if you read the documentation on the System.Management objects used, you should be able to figure it out.

Hi all,
I new a solution file and then added 2 new projects in there. the project were
1) Smart Device Application
2) ASp.Net web service
I added a sample string helloworld() web service to 2) and then I added a form with a text box and a button to 1).
When the mobile simulator (default pocket pc) on .net is running, pressing the button on the form will call the web
service 2) helloworld and helloworld returned things will display on the text box of the form.
I hv also added 2) as 1)'s web reference.
the solution compiled and deployed successfully. But when I press the button to call the web service, an error
message has been displayed, telling project 1) cannot find web services of project.
Any idea on this problem?
thanks much.

Hi,
Using localhost can cause this type of problem. If you are using the localhost in the URL use your machine name instead of localhost in the URL.
Thanks and Regards

Hi,
I got your point, it seemed the client can found webSrvProj now. But when I access statement 2 as below:
webSrvProj.webSrv webSrv = new abc.webSrvProj.webSrv();
this.textBox1.Text = webSrv.CallExternalWebService(); // this web service just write a "hello world"
exception still raised
System.Net.WebException
Additional information: The remote service returned an error: (401) Unauthorized
Any idea ? Who grant right to who? And how to grant rights? As I remembered that I hv grant all IIS access priviledges on both mobile client application and the web service application.
Thanks in advance!!!

Hi,
I dont have an exact solution for this. But are you able to aceess your webservice from a remote machine. Please check that.
Thnaks

Hi,
Yes, other machine can access the webservices from the hosting machine.
Thanks much,

Hi all,
I have a set of thumbnails stored in a database with info such as date created, date added, created by who, size etc.
I want to be able to display the thumbnails according to selection, ie user and/or date.
I'd like to be able to display the images in a datagrid on a Windows form but have no clue how to do it. 
Is it possible?

Hello guys.
I need some help on organization our project strategy.
1. What we need?
1.1. First of all we need a "module", that would handle most part of project logic and functionality. Let's keep call it "module" untill we can't find a phisical instance name for it.
Requirements:
- Single instance per computer
- Possibility to work all the time
- No need to have graphical interface
- Possibility to communicate with and be controlled by some GUI application
1.2. At second we need a GUI application that would communicate and control the "module". There are no special requirements for this application and it's clear how to create it. So that's not a point of interest.
2. What are the questions?
2.1. What kind of programm the "module" should be???
2.2. Maybe it's better to separate "module" functionality between several programs???
2.3. What kind of intercommunication between GUI app and "module" should we implement???
3. Our suggestions...
3.1. The "module" should be a Windows Service, but
- How to organize intercommunication with GUI app???
- It's not nessesary for "module" to work all the time, but is desired to be possible.
3.2. The "module" should be a SINGLETON COM EXE Server, but
- It could be created using ATL and we have pure documentation on ATL and it's much harder to code with ATL than with C#.
3.3. The "module" should be a kind of demon application, supporting some kind of IPC, but
- How to create windowless demon application???
- How to organize IPC???
3.4. The "module" should be a simple DLL, but implemented as SINGLETON (one instance per computer), but
- How to make DLL SINGLETON???
As a partner addition, 3.2, 3.3 and 3.4 could have a real Window Service as a starter and handler of "module" vitality.
So, if somebody could suggest any way (better the optimal) of solving the above problems, we'd appreciate it very much.
Thanx for an attention!!!

ASP.NET web service will be good for you:
1. It works all the time (without user logon to the machine).
2. Communication with other programs is easy: soap/http.
3. It is a single instance per machine (unless you want to install it multiple times).
4. It has no GUI unless you want to add GUI.
5. It can be implemented in one dll (the default).
6. It can be done in C# or any other .NET supported language.
However, it is NOT a windows service or com server.
Good luck.

The best way to do this is making setup and deplyment project and set your project as the start up project of it it will make the whole project setted up and then the user can choose in which place he would setup this application

I installed my application on a computer and it worked fine for a day. The next day that I double-clicked on the .exe for the app I got this dialog box error message that pops up, ".exe (null) is not a valid win32 application". It's really strange, especially since as I said it worked fine after I initially installed it (i was even able to close it and load it again after installing, not until the next did this occur). I used .net's setup and deployment wizard to package the app, which had worked fine in the past. The only thing i can think of, when i was building the installer, i had a few warnings on the compiler being unable to find some of the dlls. Has anyone seen this occur before?
thanks

Hi,
My application is doing color dropout from the image and after dropping color only black & white image remains.Here i am using pointer.Firstly i am doing Grayscalling on the image and then doing constrasting my image.I am doing both function in single click but now main problem is that time.It is taking 8-9 seconds for complete whole process.Actually i want that in within 1 second.
Can anybody tell me which one is the best method in C#.net to achieve performance on this task?& why & how to use that method?
thanks
regards.,

Its a bit difficult to help you because you do not exactly explain what you do when grayscaling and contrasting. One hint I can give you is that you should avoid the usage of the Color structure. Both the creation (e.g.Color.FromArgb) and the use of its properties (R, G, B) are relatively heavy functions (at least when using them thousand or millions of times). In one of my projects with bitmap creation and colorcalcluations I could greatly improve perfomance by not using Color. This of course means that you will need to make some implemenations by yourself (e.g. a lightweight structure for exactly your purpose).
Also have a look at NProf. With this tool you can easily find what exactly takes so long in your calculations.

hi,
I really like urs suggestions but is that good way to use multithreading
into R,g,b properties.
my main algorithm is that in doing grayscalling i am taking r,g,b value of each pixel & multipling with .299 for red , .587 for green and .114 for blue and then giving that new value to pixel and this algorithm takes 4 seconds becoz it's calculating thousands of pixels.
Now for doing constrasting it taking another 4 seconds.Here is algorithm.
Now in doing Constrasting,
for each R,G,B if the value is < 0 R/G/B =0 and if value >255 then R/G/B =255
so it is taking another 4 seconds.
Now can u tell me that if i will use multithreading in this both algorithm it will give me more performance or not?
I had not used multithreading ever but as concepts of multithreading is giving faclity for dividine into thread i am hoping from multithreading.
so multithreading will work or not here?
or can u tell me which good approach will help me here.
