Thanks for the insight. So have you suffered burnout or moved out of Banking before that happened? I'm prepared for arrogance a-plenty and people who think they're gods gift. You're right though, the motivation is money- why else would I subject myself to increased stress and longer hours? :)...

He seems angry about something.

Hi, I'm starting a new permanent job with a large Investment Bank in London in about 3 weeks, which to be honest I'm looking forward to, but am slightly nervous in some ways too. It's a new arena for me, after 5 years working in software houses. But I figured if I can, why not get paid double...

Isn't there a simpler way than detecting a key press event? In C++ it's easy to do, can't believe you have to go to that level.

Press any key to continue." Ok how do I do that? As soon as the user presses a key it continues.. no having to press return first like with Console.Read or Console.ReadLine..

I am looking for peoples opinions on .net obfuscators. I am getting an evaluation of Dotfuscator Pro- what do people think of it? Do you have any other suggestions for good obfuscators. Thanks.

My C# client is successfully loading an unmanaged COM server and calling a method- however it is clearly holding onto the interface after calling the method. I have come to this conclusion because the COM server process is not terminating. When the c# client does not use the server, it...

I want to write a C# component that can interop with a c++ COM client. I have successfully done this using the MS examples- I have created a C# class library (dll) that I am successfully using from unmanaged c++. However, because it is a dll, I have to call it in-process. Is there a way to...

Isn't it possible in .NET to cast strings to ints and longs? I'm trying and getting compile errors.

System.collections, i've found them...

Coming from a c++ background, there must surely be .NET equivalents of the STL map, list, vector etc. classes. I can't find them anywhere in the .net framework, can anyone help?

I am using GetModuleFileNameEx to get the paths to processes running on my machine. It works fine for virtually everything, but the odd one or two comes out with the path using tildas. e.g. c:\progra~1\myfol~1\proc.exe Does anyone know why for some files it does this? Is there a way to get the...

Has anyone used this API? BOOL GetDiskFreeSpaceEx( LPCTSTR lpDirectoryName, PULARGE_INTEGER lpFreeBytesAvailableToCaller, PULARGE_INTEGER lpTotalNumberOfBytes, PULARGE_INTEGER lpTotalNumberOfFreeBytes ); I'm rather confused about how I interpret the...

I want to return a TCHAR* via the argument of a function, e.g. normally you would pass the argument by reference void myfunction(type& myoutvariable) for a TCHAR*, would I do... void myfunction(TCHAR**) i.e. a pointer to a TCHAR*?

is there an API or something to check if a machine is connected to a network or not. I would appreciate any suggestions. TIA.

This works for ANY change in a specific key- so if there's multiple values under this key, if any one of these values changes, then this API picks it up. What if I just want to monitor a specific value under a key? Is there a different API for this?

Thanks- I have managed to create the window and it shows on the desktop- but it just says "not Responding"- any ideas?

I've got a program running in a particular user process. This user is not the same as the logged in user. I am calling CreateWindow in this process and it's not being displayed, despite the call succeeding. My guess is that it is being displayed but on the desktop of the other process. Can...

Anyone know what the event is for double click on a list view? I know _ItemClick is for the single click, is there something equivalent to _ItemDoubleClick, or do I just use the _DblClick event?

I've decided to go for the Athlon- mainly going on benchmarks for games as thats primarily why I need a fast processor. The benchamrks are quite a bit better for virtually all games on the athlon.
