What the?!?... i can't beleive thats actually a built-in method. Why would that be there?

Because .NET rocks.
Seriously, the purpose of this method is to provide the means of generating a random directory/file name that is cryptographically secure, i.e. that could not be guessed at by a malicious script.

It has nothing to do with cryptographically secure anything. All it does is genereate a filename that is guaranteed to be unique within the folder where it's created. This function can only generate 65535 unique temp filenames before it throws up an exception. The solution is to delete the existing temp files in the folder and try again.

My choice of words was wrong. I should have said cryptographically strong, i.e. unpredicatable (quoting from the MSDN documentation).

There's nothing crypto about the GetTempFileName or GetTempPath methods or their results. At a mere 65535 possible filenames, "strong" isn't the word I'd chose.
Perhaps you were looking at the GetRandomFileName[^] method?

I was referring to the GetRandomFileName method. See my original post[^]. At no point did I refer to GetTempFileName or GetTempPath.

I have spent many hours googling this today, and I'm no closer to finding an answer 9or finding an answer I can understand!)
I have a very simple Web Service conforming to WsiProfiles.BasicProfile1_1. It runs on IIS 7, on which I have enabled dynamic content compression, and I'd like to be able to compress this content when it's to...
... my very simple WCF Service client. I created this by using the wizard and pointing it at my web service. The problem I have is that I (think) need my client to send the "yes, I understand compression" header to IIS, and then to understand the compressed response it gets. However, google as I might I can't fathom how to do this. There was some talk of needing to use a compression channel (and I found this on CodePlex: http://www.codeplex.com/wcfextensions[^]), but I'm not sure this is what I need. But in my app.config, there doesn't seem to be any option to enable compression awareness.
Surely this is a common enough thing to want to do that it's included in the box?

Hi!
You should use the ListViewItemSorter property of the ListView. The documentation on MSDN contains examples for this.

Hi all,
I have devoloped an appliction which will set my internet settings.
I have listbox,textbox etc.
The basic idea is that in a button click event the settings that i see in my text boxes should get applied to my computer.
it takes the values from a xml file.
now i am at a point where it displays all the values.
Now i want it get applied on my computer so that on a button clck i can switch between two of my service providers.
So i need help in knowing "how can i make the settings that is in my text box to get applied to my computer so that on a button click i can switch the internet connections".
May be if i show you my code it will be better

Process netshobj = new Process();
netshobj.StartInfo.FileName = "netsh";
netshobj.StartInfo.CreateNoWindow = true;
netshobj.ErrorDataReceived += new DataReceivedEventHandler(netshobj_ErrorDataReceived);
//netshobj.StartInfo.Arguments = "netsh";
// Here i tried these to check whether it will work or not and the result is that it shows a netsh window and tahts it.My settings are nit changing//
netshobj.StartInfo.Arguments = "interface ip set dns 'Local Area Connection' static 192.168.1.255 primary";
try
{

Hello,
I have two webparts. They are connected - one is the provider, one the consumer. The consumer maintains a gridview. Whenever I data arrives from the provider, I call the CreateChildControls in my ConnectionConsumer method. Thus my gridview is rebuilt. But - the CreateChildControls has already been called once, at this point. I'm thinking I should go about this in a different manner. Any ideas? Thank you very much in advance.

Hi All,
I have created a delegate and called method in one process. And I am trying to fire event corresponding to this delegate. Programm was running without errors and exceptions. But event handing method was not firing.
could you please suggest me what I made wrong.
Thanks for great support and knowledge sharing.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I have created a form with one delegate:
namespace DelegateDefenitionContainedApplication
{
public delegate void HiSrinivas(object sender, EventArgs e);
public partial class Form1 : Form
{
public static void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
MessageBox.Show("You are succeeded");
}
}
}
And I have created one console application using following way:
namespace EventCaller
{
class myEventClass
{
public static event DelegateDefenitionContainedApplication.HiSrinivas ClickMe;
public void abc()
{
ClickMe += new DelegateDefenitionContainedApplication.HiSrinivas(DelegateDefenitionContainedApplication.Form1.button1_Click);
}
}
class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
try
{
myEventClass mySrinivas = new myEventClass();
mySrinivas.abc();
}
}
}
}

From the source code you have shown, it looks like ClickMe is never called. If you add a call to ClickMe after your call to abc(), the event should fire.
Also, your code looks strange in other ways. If you want a console app that fires an event, then there is no need for Form1 to be a form at all. It could easily derive directly from Object and still work.
If you want to display a form that executes code when the button is pressed, you might want to make a Forms application, and let the IDE do a lot of the work for you.

Hi all,
when building a C# project with a same output directory, the generated dlls are erased even if they don't have the same name.
For instance,
1- I build my project in Debug
2- it generates projectd.dll into C:\
3- I build my project in Release
4- it generates project.dll into C:\
5- the projectd.dll was removed from C:\
is there a way to avoid that ?
thanks for help

Mmm, keep the debug in debug folder and vice-versa, and run a post-build batch file to copy the file to C:\ ?

how can i add a hyper link to a desktop application ?
I have a small notifier pops up, i want to add a link to the text written on the popup.
How can i do it c#, .net 2005, deskop app.
Thanks

Personally I use a link label and use System.Diagnostics.Process.Start(...) in its Click event
|
|
|
|
|
Agreed, link label is designed to look like a link, and changes the cursor to 'the hand'. So it should be fairly obvious to people that it is a link.
Then use Process.Start like Davey says.
Also note, that is you use Process.Start(WebAddress); and you have a browser window open already, it will navigate away from the page the user is viewing and towards the page you supplied, its like a browser hijack!

I have a WinForms application whose main form contains a custom user control (and that custom user control, in turn, contains other custom user controls, etc).
If I want the main form to handle keystrokes (such as Ctrl-S or Ctrl-X) without allowing the inner user controls to handle them first, is there any easy way I can guarantee that the main form will pick up the keystroke first (100% of the time)?
