Depending on what you want to accomplish xenocode might not do what you want. IT doesn't actually convert your app into a native one. It wraps a compiler and the used parts of the framework into a single giant exe and then obfuscates them. At run time it then extracts everything and runs it just like a normal .net app.
Today's lesson is brought to you by the word "niggardly". Remember kids, don't attribute to racism what can be explained by Scandinavian language roots.

That officially qualifies as a stupid question.

Hi John .
How do you do today ? 
|
|
|
|
|
Why would you want to do this? And in short, you can't. C# is very closely linked to the .NET Framework and you can't run C# apps without the framework although there are dubious products which claim you can.
The framework provides all the managed code support (garbage collection, verifiable code, reflection, security etc) for instance.
Regards,
Rob Philpott.

Thanks Rob. I don't want to do that.
I've wanted to know.

The best solution, put .Net Framework setup with your app. But if you want to run your app without .Net Framework then you should try or buy Xenocode Virtual Appliance[^]

DotGNU[^]
Mono[^]
ILDJIT[^]
XenoCode was already mentioned as a linker, but there's also one from RemoteSoft[^].
The .NET framework is *free*, why would you want to avoid it? That's like doing C++ programming without MFC

You mean the only way C++ programming is bearable?

You can also build .NET applications using Notepad++, TextPad or c# command-line compiler csc.exe.

You can use software like Xenocode Postbuild 2008[^], but it is very expensive and even if you do get it, it can make executables unstable and extremely large.

Hi,
I am developing an application to catalog your comic collections. In the comic info form I thought I would add an image drop utility so the user can add images from the comic into the comic's details. I thought it was working fine, but it seems it is not. So, this comic info form is opened from the main form. Then it has a tab control with different tabs. The one I'm interested in is the Images tab. I have set the AllowDrop property of all of them to true. The control I want to drop the images in is a FlowLayoutPanel that i have called flpImages. Finally, I am running Windows Vista Ultimate.
The code for the two events (DragOver and DragDrop) is the following:
private void pbImages_DragOver(object sender, DragEventArgs e)
{
try
{
if (e.Data.GetDataPresent(DataFormats.FileDrop) && (e.AllowedEffect & DragDropEffects.Copy) != 0)
e.Effect = DragDropEffects.Copy;
}
catch
{
System.Diagnostics.Debugger.Break();
}
}
private void pbImages_DragDrop(object sender, DragEventArgs e)
{
if (e.Data.GetDataPresent(DataFormats.FileDrop))
this.AddImages((string[])e.Data.GetData(DataFormats.FileDrop));
}
The AddImages code (although it never gets there)
private void AddImages(string[] filenames)
{
try
{
this.Cursor = Cursors.WaitCursor;
string destPath = Application.StartupPath + "\\Temp\\";
if (!Directory.Exists(destPath))
Directory.CreateDirectory(destPath);
foreach (string file in filenames)
{
// Create new picturebox to hold the image
PictureBox pb = new PictureBox();
pb.Width = 60;
pb.Height = pb.Width * pbImgDisplay.Height / pbImgDisplay.Width;
pb.BorderStyle = BorderStyle.FixedSingle;
pb.Name = "pbImage_" + (this.flpImages.Controls.Count + 1).ToString();
pb.Click += new EventHandler(this.pbImages_Click);
// Add the image to the new picturebox
// Get the image the user opened
Image theImage = Image.FromFile(file);
if (theImage.Width > theImage.Height)
theImage.RotateFlip(RotateFlipType.Rotate90FlipXY);
// Break the file name to get the image extension
string[] pieces = file.Split(Convert.ToChar("."));
double scale = 0;
// Since the image's size we want is the large picture box size, we save the image in that size in the temp
// folder first.
if (theImage.Width > this.pbImgDisplay.Width || theImage.Height > this.pbImgDisplay.Height)
{
scale = Math.Min((double)this.pbImgDisplay.Width / (double)theImage.Width, (double)this.pbImgDisplay.Height / (double)theImage.Height);
theImage = theImage.GetThumbnailImage((int)Math.Round(theImage.Width * scale, 0), (int)Math.Round(theImage.Height * scale, 0), null, (IntPtr)0);
}
string img = destPath + "temp_img_" + (this.flpImages.Controls.Count + 1).ToString() + "." + pieces[pieces.Length - 1];
theImage.Save(img);
// Now we need to create the thumbnail for the smaller picbox.
if (theImage.Width > pb.Width || theImage.Height > pb.Height)
{
scale = Math.Min((double)pb.Height / (double)theImage.Height, (double)pb.Width / (double)theImage.Width);
theImage = theImage.GetThumbnailImage((int)Math.Round(theImage.Width * scale, 0), (int)Math.Round(theImage.Height * scale, 0), null, (IntPtr)0);
}
img = destPath + "temp_thumb_" + (this.flpImages.Controls.Count + 1).ToString() + "." + pieces[pieces.Length - 1];
theImage.Save(img);
pb.ImageLocation = img;
this.flpImages.Controls.Add(pb);
this.imagesDescription.Add(String.Empty);
}
this.tabImages.Focus();
this.pbImages_Click(this.flpImages.Controls[this.flpImages.Controls.Count - 1], new EventArgs());
this.Cursor = Cursors.Default;
this.btnRemoveImage.Enabled = true;
this.tbImageNotes.Enabled = true;
}
catch (Exception exc)
{
MessageBox.Show("Error Adding the Image File.\n\n" + exc.Message);
}
}
All I get is an icon that indicates that nothing can be dropped (the forbidden icon) and can't drop anything. Can anyone help?

Hi, thanks for trying to help. I tried it. Still get the cursor for no drop. It is very odd. Thanks anyway.

will you show the Dragging code ?

What dragging code? I only have two event handlers the DragOver and the DragDrop that I placed in the original message. The files are coming from outside the application, not from within the application.

|

oh okay. Here is a code that I used once.
private void Main_DragEnter(object sender, DragEventArgs e)
{
e.Effect = DragDropEffects.Copy;
}
private void Main_DragDrop(object sender, DragEventArgs e)
{
string[] DroppedFilesNames = (string[])e.Data.GetData(DataFormats.FileDrop);
if (Path.GetFileName(DroppedFilesNames[0]) != "carcols.dat")
MessageBox.Show("Wrong file.", Application.ProductName);
else
openFile(DroppedFilesNames[0]);
}

The problem was not in the code, it is with Windows Vista and UAC. Somehow Vista does not allow lower security files to be dropped on higher security controls and since Visual Studio 2008 had to be ran with Administrator priviledges, it was not allowing to drop the files. I have had to disable UAC and it works fine.
Microsoft, please get your act together!!!
