3.5 is just an extension to 2.0 - it's like having someone compare Delphi 6 to Delphi 6 with DevExpress components. Let's say that if your team knows the DevExpress components well, go for it. It's not a competition about who of the two is better - it's more about what you (your users) need and what fits you best Smile | :)

CAn you provide a link to the article? I learn by reading, doing, saying the wrong things and mopping up the mess I make Laugh | :laugh:

Right, I know there is no CLR difference between .NET 3.5 and .NET 2.0. Please understand the question I asked for.

I need difference between them performance wise, scalability wise and benifits business wise? I know the new features in .NET 3.5. Smile | :)

Thanks in advance.

Sunny

You want to know if the framework became faster? It didn't, since they didn't change anything in the base, they just extended it. String-concatenations are still slow if you don't use a StringBuilder.

scalability wise

No differences that I'm aware of, as this isn't dictated by the framework AFAIK.

.NET 3.5 gives you a shorter development cycle under some circumstances, but you'll have to be sure that your users have the runtime for the framework.

The Wikipedia[^] hosts an article that highlights all changes to the framework, you could use it as a base to deduce the answers to your questions.

If you don't want to post the article here, can I get a copy through email?

Thanks

If it's for a manager who needs to decide between the frameworks, be sure to check and highlight;
- what the most common type of framework for your users is
- the competence-level of the available developers for each framework
- whether you'll need to support any platform beyond Windows'

Hi

I am new in develoment can please any one help.

I have had menu id "Menu3" in Menu.ascx file and i have .aspx pages. Menu3 has 4 options and every option has its own sub options Here is main structure of Menu3

Report Data Operation Logout

I have two categories of users Admins and non Admins. I don't want to show "Operation" to non-admins. I need to decide at login time.I had saved admin flag in Session (user is admin or not)
but how can i disable "operation" if flag is false in .aspx page_load event.

I already include Menu.ascx in aspx pages.

I am using VS2008.

thanks

Take a look at using the Membership and Role providers with .NET. Set up a sitemap to control the menu that appears, and attach the Admin role to the ones you want only the Admin users to see. This[^] should help.

By the way, please ask questions about ASP.NET in the ASP.NET forum in future.

You can do it inside the Page_Load event in Menu.ascx webcontrol. Just check the Session and disable the option.

Controlling the ToolboxItem control type during a drag operation

astibich216-Feb-09 20:04

I am currently writing a custom toolbox window for Visual Studio 2008, using the SDK. When the user drags from the list, I start a drag drop operation using ToolboxItem as the drag data.

ToolboxItem tbi = new ToolboxItem(myControlType);
IToolboxService serviceToolBox = (IToolboxService)GetService( typeof(IToolboxService));
object tbiSerialized = serviceToolBox.SerializeToolboxItem(tbi);
this.DoDragDrop(tbiSerialized, DragDropEffects.Copy);

When they drop the ToolBoxItem, I use the 'ToolboxItem.ComponentsCreated' event to write some extra setup code on the control

void dropToolBoxItem_ComponentsCreated(object sender, ToolboxComponentsCreatedEventArgs e)
{
// write custom control config code here
}

However, I'm finding that I sometimes want control over the ToolboxItem control type, based on UI conditions during the drag. For example, I may want to create a different control on the designer if the user holds down the shift key. Sometimes I want to block the drop completely. Unfortunately, I don't see a way to change the ToolboxItem after I start the drag. It seems like the 'ToolboxItem.ComponentsCreating' event was meant for this kind of intervention, but I can't change the control type when the 'ToolboxItem.ComponentType' property is read only.

I've tried a few hacks (like deleting the control after drop and re-creating the new control type), but none of it has worked out very well. Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks,

Aaron

Hi. Subject pretty much says it all.

My C# application spends a lot of time consuming data from a web service, and I want to provide a mechanism which allows me
to count the total number of bytes entering and leaving the application over time.

Have tried a few google searches, but they're yet to turn up anything useful.

Management of mulitple instances of an application

15-Feb-09 16:01

I have a scenario where I have an application that allows a user to open mulitple documents on different tabs within the application.

If the application is already running and the user opens a file associated with my application from Windows Explorer, how can I get the document to open in the instance of my application that is already executing as opposed to opening a new instance of the application?

I have seen posts that check whether or not a process / application is already running. In the examples I have seen, if the application is already running a messagebox is just displayed indicating as such. However, in my case, I need to assign the document to the executing instance of the application.

Any help would be appreciated?

Hi
Can anybody recommend me a good obfuscation tool for .net code.
Any advice will be appreciated,

Dotfuscator Community Edition, gets installed with Visual Studio. You can find it in the start-menu under the Visual Studio Tools, and it gets installed under

C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\Application\PreEmptive Solutions\Dotfuscator Community Edition\dotfuscator.exe"

No experience with other obfuscators, sorry.
