| No object name for System.Threading.ManualResetEvent? (3 replies) |
| microsoft.public.dotnet.framework |
| Win32 synchronization objects (events, mutex, ...) all have a name. Having a name allows you to have several processes cooperating by sinchronizing each other using well known sync objects. However, in .NET ManualResetEvent and AutoResetEvent doesn't have an object name! Is there any reason for that? Workarounds? TIA Pablo Castro [MVP] Lagash Systems S.A.

| Debugger incosistencies with strings including \x0000 (5 replies) |
| microsoft.public.dotnet.framework |
| Hi, Perhaps this is by design and I'm missing something. I also apologize if this has been covered before; I couldn't find any posts If you place a breakpoint on the third line of code in the debugger and run it, you'll see that s2.Length is 0 in locals/command. However, when evaluated in code, it returns the length of the byte array it was converted from. The array contains 256 "\x0000"s. I've fo... |

| Line Numbers in Exceptions (2 replies) |
| microsoft.public.dotnet.framework |
| In ASP, we used to be able to retrieve the Line Number of an exception. On calling the Server.GetlastError() function, one could read the value of the line number from the line number property of the returned exception. The Exception class no longer contains a LineNumber property, so how do we find out where the exception happened from our custom error handler pages? I guess it is possible because... |

| Public Fields or Properties? (8 replies) |
| microsoft.public.dotnet.framework |
| Hello, Normally, a Public Field works the same as a Public Property, right? I can set values and retrieve them. I think it is much cleaner to have a public field nicely on one line, rather than more lines just so I can have a property. What are the guidelines on this? I just found out that the Repeater won't databind to a field (other databinding worked like that), but it will to a property. Very ... |
