I was able to get it to compile, simply by adding the following line to AssemblyInfo.cs, under the SecurityCritical item.

[assembly: SecurityRules(SecurityRuleSet.Level1)]

New Post: Application.Current.Shutdown() not working from NotifyIcon

tsv,

I've just run into the same problem. Here is solution that worked for me:

(http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5071137/application-current-shutdown-is-not-killing-my-application and http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1867380/application-current-shutdown-doesnt):

ThreadStart ts = delegate()
    {
        Dispatcher.BeginInvoke((Action)delegate()
        {
            Application.Current.Shutdown();
        });
     };
     Thread t = new Thread(ts);
     t.Start();

Hi Joe

Would it be possible to get the source code for the AutoGrid that you ported to Silverlight 3?

Fingers crossed (I know this is an old thread :))

Thanks

New Post: Make XAML Merge Friendly

Alois — Wed, 28 Dec 2011 07:48:29 GMT

Hi,

as a regular user of xaml files I have found it very difficult to merge changes because the Workflow Editor does serialize its UI state into the resultuing xaml. This causes many changes in the resulting xaml and merge conflicts if I and my colleague did expand the same xaml nodes. To concentrate on the relevant things I would like to have all designer properties on a separate line wich I can mark with an advanced merge tool like BeyondCompare as irrelevant.

The ViewState can be filtered out quite easily but I have a hard time to filter out lines which do contain sap:VirtualizedContainerService.HintSize. On these lines the arguments to the activity might have been changed but I cannot flag this change as unimportant because the merge tools I do know do not let me create intra line filters.

It would help a lot if the ContainerService.HintSize would be on a separate line with no other content. Then I can filter irrelevant changes in a clean way and merges become much easier.

Yours,

Alois Kraus

New Post: Application.Current.Shutdown() not working from NotifyIcon

aelij — Thu, 24 Feb 2011 07:40:49 GMT

Sorry, but I'm unable to reproduce this behavior.

When an app doesn't shutdown it usually means a thread (besides the main one) is still working.

New Post: Application.Current.Shutdown() not working from NotifyIcon

tsv — Mon, 21 Feb 2011 22:03:26 GMT

I'm using the NotifyIcon, and calling Application.Current.Shutdown() from an "Exit" MenuItem in the NotifyIcon's ContextMenu. This closes the window and icon, but the app continues to run (VS, for example, does not leave debug mode). The exact same code works when run from a different control, e.g. a button.

Any suggestions? Cheers.

No, this shouldn't happen unless you're opening some socket.

I have no idea what causes this on your PC.

New Post: Application asking for internet access

robault — Sat, 05 Feb 2011 20:15:48 GMT

I wrote a WPF application in Visual Studio that uses some .Net framework classes. It has absolutely no code in it for accessing any network resources and does not act as a server in any way. I just received a pop up from ZoneAlarm saying this application is asking for access to the internet. I used the AvalonLibrary.dll in my project, other than that it is about as vanilla of a WPF application as you can get. I downloaded the WPF Contrib source but didn't find anything after a brief search that would indicate it was caused from it. Do you have any idea if this library attempts to act as a server or access network resources? Is it the .Net framework that causes this to occur?

New Post: center align TaskDialog

aelij — Thu, 20 Jan 2011 06:45:56 GMT

I'm afraid I don't have an easy solution, then.

You can grab the source code and make modifications to the private TaskDialogWindow class, and perhaps expose the WindowStartupLocation as a property on TaskDialog.

sr258 — Wed, 19 Jan 2011 16:32:18 GMT

Thanks for your answer.

The problem is that I don't really have a parent window. I want the TaskDialog to display some choices the user has when the application starts up. So I load it in the event handler of the Loaded event of my startup window. Assigning the Owner property to this window doesn't change the alignment of the TaskDialog. I assume that this is because the startup window isn't shown till after the TaskDialog has finished.

Hi,

TaskDialog centers itself according to its owner. You should set the Owner property to the Window and it should work fine.

Hi,

Showing the TaskDialog works just fine. However, I'm not able set the window alignment of the Dialog. Normally you can tell a window whether to center on the screen or in the parent window. I can't find a way to do this with TaskDialog.

Can someone help me with this?

New Post: Moving to .Net 4

glasgowm — Thu, 22 Jul 2010 19:20:33 GMT

Are there any plans to move to .Net 4. I thought it would be a simple matter of changing the project settings, but there are lots of errors about security. There are new security features in .Net 4 and wpfcontrib won't compile.

New Post: Exception viewing with TaskDialog

joquer — Wed, 16 Jun 2010 18:00:57 GMT

I added this static routine to display exceptions using the TaskDialog. I thought i'd post in hopes that someone might find it useful.

Michael

        public static void ShowException(Exception ex)
        {
            TaskDialog dlg = new TaskDialog
            {
                MaxWidth = 500,
                MainIcon = TaskDialogIconConverter.ConvertFrom(TaskDialogIcon.Error),
                FooterIcon = TaskDialogIconConverter.ConvertFrom(TaskDialogIcon.Information),
                Title = String.Format("{0} Exception", ex.GetType().Name)
            };

            StackPanel panel = new StackPanel();
            panel.Children.Add(new TextBlock()
            {
                Text = ex.Message,
                TextWrapping = TextWrapping.Wrap,
                FontWeight = FontWeights.Bold
            });
            Exception iex = ex.InnerException;
            while (iex != null)
            {
                panel.Children.Add(new TextBlock()
                {
                    Text = iex.Message,
                    TextWrapping = TextWrapping.Wrap
                });
                iex = iex.InnerException;
            }
            dlg.Content = panel;
            dlg.ExpansionContent = ex.StackTrace;
            dlg.ExpansionButtonContent = "Stack Trace";
            dlg.ExpansionPosition = TaskDialogExpansionPosition.Footer;

            TaskDialogButtons buttons = new TaskDialogButtons();
            buttons |= TaskDialogButtons.Close;
            foreach (object item in TaskDialogButtonData.FromStandardButtons(buttons))
                dlg.Buttons.Add(item);

dlg.Show();
}
