hi @ll!
I have the following problem....
I try to access the IE DOM as COM from C# -> no problem for first. Then I try to get a spezific element of the Document in the Internet Explorer (v6). For this I need to recurse through all frames. It works (its only a part of course, all the source would be too much Wink | ;)

until "X.item(ref newIDoc);" I think (or I'm sure the error is caused because) in the msdn the ".item" is descripted as follows:
"HRESULT item(
VARIANT* pvarIndex,
VARIANT* pvarResult
);"
but I don't know how to do this in C#.

object newIDoc = new object();
newIDoc = I;
mshtml.IHTMLFramesCollection2 X;
X = iDoc.frames;
X.item(ref newIDoc); //-> error

An unhandled exception of type 'System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException' occurred in xcwrapper.dll

Anyone any Idea?
thx anyway

frame = X.item(i) is a way to access the ith element of a collection. There is no point in passing the doc instance as param.

hi!
I see...
that sounds pretty well Smile | :)

(sometimes you bite in a problem like this, and it could be such easy.... Smile | :)

anyway
that causes this problem:
Argument '1': cannot convert from 'ref short' to 'ref object'
u know what I can do here?
thx indeed

API automatically generated by the type lib discoverer comes short in many places, including that one. In fact, you need to know to hack the C++ IDL interface counterpart before you get the C# stuff working.

For your issue, the simplest thing I can see is as follows :

short i = 2; // example
object oi = i;

frame f = X.frames.item(ref oi);

Start ILDASM via code?

hi i use ildasm.exe in my tool , how should i do to start it via the .net environment variables?
currently my code looks like

<br />
Process p=new Process ();<br />
p.StartInfo.FileName =@"C:\WINNT\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v1.0.3705\ilasm.exe";<br />

i need to be able to start it via the environment vars and not use a hardcoded path.
so how do i access the environment vars and how would the aboce code look with the environment vars in it?

Call this function[^] via DllImport.

oke this solved it halfway..
i need the path for ilasm.exe to... and for some reason ilasm and ildasm are located in differet folders.

"C:\Program\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET\FrameworkSDK\Bin\ildasm.exe"
and C:\WINNT\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v1.0.3705\ilasm.exe

why?

RuntimeEnvironment.GetRuntimeDirectory () returns the path where ilasm is located , but how can i get the other path to? and are they always located at different locations?

Because ILDASM is a programmer tool, it is located on the Framework SDK path, not in the Framework path.
I'm not sure if this is the right way, but you can obtain it at HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\.NETFramework\sdkInstallRoot

Looks like that would only be part of the SDK. So that wouldn't work if you were installing to a box with only the runtime.

can i execute "vsvars.bat" first?

vsvars.bat is tha batch file that registers the .net environment variables .
so could i somehow execute that batch in the context of my program so my program can retrive the paths from the environment variables then?

i actually peeked inside a quite wellknown obfuscator (and they use ilasm and ildasm)
and they retrive the path to both of them via the environmentvariable "path" , but that variable dont contain the .net paths unless vsvars.bat have been executed.
(they also display a mysterious dos window before their app starts , and i beleve they actually executes vsvars.bat in there somehow)..

so any ideas how i could start that bat file so that the vars are visible to my app?

Well, there are a couple problems with that. That batch file is only included with the .NET Framework SDK. End-users will only have the .NET Framework Runtime. So they won't have ILDASM or VSVars32.bat.

And, you can run VSVars32.bat, but why not just hardcode the path? I don't think it's gonna change until you upgrade to another .NET Framework version.

internet connection is up

I detect the internet connection with the following method
//*************************************
try
{
server = DNS.GetHostByName("www.yahoo.com");
}
catch(Exception)
{
Console.WriteLine("Internet Connection not found"); // fail
return ;
}
//***********************************************
But it takes times to find if internet connection is up. I need a faster method.
Is there any?

The internet doesn't really work like this.

Try running pathping www.google.com at your command prompt. You could try running a trace like this from within .NET and look at the second or third hop but it wouldn't be very reliable.

To capture the ouptut of pathping off the command line see my other post at http://www.codeproject.com/script/comments/forums.asp?msg=375367&forumid=1646#xx375367xx[^]

No. Bad. You can't ping someone else's website as part of your application or service unless you have an agreement with them. There is such a thing as a ping attack. ibm.com no longer responds to ping, for example, because people were using it in this way. If google decides to do the same, his app won't work anymore. Your solution is good if his app is noncommercial or not used by many people.

You need to use the CopyTo() method of the FileInfo Class.

foreach (FileInfo file in filesInDirInfo)
{
file.CopyTo(newDirName);
}
