Ever since COM made its debut in 1993, programmers have searched for ways to optimize the performance of COM method calls. Their never-ending quest for speed has produced a number of clever solutions, some as extreme as using custom marshaling to replace COM's built-in remoting infrastructure with remoting mechanisms of their own. But no technique is as effective at speeding the execution of cross-process and cross-machine method calls as preventing those method calls from leaving the caller's p...

One of the easiest ways to master NCover is simply to dive into some code and improve tests, so this week we'll be looking at improving the test quality for an open source project, Json.NET, which is available on CodePlex here. Json.NET is a tool for reading and writing JSON from .NET, and includes a JsonSerializer for easily serializing .NET objects into Json.
Json stands for JavaScript Object Notation, and is a way that AJAX developers communicate between the browser and the web server,...

New Daylight Saving Time rules go into affect on March 11, 2007 at 2 AM. Microsoft has provided some sample instructions for updating systems but there are some serious drawbacks:
* There is no support for Windows 2000 servers or workstations. Actually there is but you have to pay for "Extended Support" to get it. * The patch for Windows Server 2003 is "optional" so you have to select Custom Windows Updates - not Critical Updates which are the default. THIS IS NO LONGER THE CAS...

Although the .NET Framework provides extremely robust Windows Service support through the classes available under the System.ServiceProcess namespace, for some reason the ability to specify your the description displayed in the Services control panel applet/MMC snap-in for your service was omitted. There exists an attribute class named ServiceProcessDescription, but it actually specifies what the Services MMC displays under the name column, and the Description column is left blank. This article ...

Welcome to the first installment of Windows with C++. My focus will be on Windows Vista™ and Windows Server® 2008 development using native C++. This column will showcase new and exciting features introduced in the latest version of Windows®. There are two main reasons why this column was born. First, despite the phenomenal success of the Microsoft® .NET Framework, there are still plenty of scenarios where it makes more sense to use native C++. Adoption of .NET will continue to grow, but C++ is h...

There was once a time when multiple language support to a windows application used to be a three to six months call, but with the advent of .Net not anymore. Here is a 20 minutes crash course for globalization / Localization of a windows application. I think you'll find it as useful as I do. Globalization in simple terms means enabling an application so that it works in different national, similar to how a global company operates in different countries. For a windows application globalizatio...

First off, if you're a developer in a hurry and here for a quick solution (i.e. you're not really interested in reading the article), you can skip down to the "Using the Code" section towards the bottom. That should provide an adequate Quick Start to implement this class & get your problem solved in a matter of minutes. That said, the rest of you wise and patient people, read on... What follows is an analysis of what should be a dead-simple task: Insert text into an existing file. This all ca...

The typical software development cycle follows a straightforward model: gather requirements, design the application, write the code, test the software, and deploy it. Once in a while, though, a new development project is incepted simply based on the platform to which the customer wants to deploy the app. In this case, an existing application’s code base can be converted, or ported, to the desired platform....

Have you ever worked with the Windows® XP Embedded operating system? This is essentially a developer-customized, slimmed-down version of the Windows XP operating system intended for use on PC-like devices—game consoles, information kiosks, network appliances, and the like. With the rapid growth in the use of mobile and embedded devices, this platform is increasingly important.
I've discovered that there is a sort of knowledge gap between software test engineers and developers who work wit...

Debugging Windows Services really isn't as intuitive as pressing F5 or clicking the run button in Visual Studio. Fortunately there have been quite a few articles posted on this topic. Lee Humphries has a very effective solution to this problem in his article Debugging Windows Services under Visual Studio .NET.
This article provides another simple method to debug a Windows Service during install, uninstall and while the service is running using just a few lines of code. I don't claim that ...

This article will take you through the step-by-step procedure to develop a SERVICE to run windows based Operating System. Developing a SERVICE based application in .NET Framework is pretty straightforward which it does by confining to very few classes. Before we could move on to the development part of the application a bit of theory on Service application should be of use.
Windows Services is previously called as NT Service. The Idea of creating a windows service application is...

Windows Services are long running executable applications that have no User Interface, can be configured to start automatically and can also be started manually. Windows services are not meant to interact with users and should not have a user interface. These applications are actually controlled by the Service Control Manager. This article discusses Windows Services and shows how we can implement a simple Windows Service in C#....
