My console application needs to do some shutdown processing even when a
CTRL-C is pressed.  So I installed ProcessExit event handler and was
surprised to find this did not get invoked when a CTRL-C occurs.
I then set about using the Win32 API to install a console ctrl handler to ...

Hi group,
If you take the following code, the result is not, as one would expect, an
exception, but rather the string "01/12/0500"
DateTime dt = DateTime.Parse("£12,500", new CultureInfo("en-GB"));

I am involved in a port of an engineering application to .NET.
While testing some of the math (using doubles), I was surprised to find
that in cases where you have an overflow or divide by zero etc..., the
result is set to a double.NAN or double.Infinity etc... rather then

I have a web service that uses an assembly and a Windows service that also
uses an assembly. If I ngen the assembly will both the web service and the
Windows service use the ngen'd image?
If the web service is running behind a clustering of web servers. I use ngen

I notice the following strange behavior of the applications running under
.NET Framework.
Let say I have application MyApp.exe which reference assembly MyAssembly.dll.
The MyAssembly.dll is strong named assembly, which is installed in the GAC.

is it possible to hook into a .NET program and get the Stackframe of the
currently executed method?
I know I can use the Process Class to enumerate the threads of an
application. But can I go any deeper than that?

I have some trouble. I hava configurable date format, for ex. like this
'yyyyMMdd' and I try to convert strings to date time, and .net give me an
error 'string is not recognized as a valid DateTime', my code is:
DateTimeFormatInfo df = new DateTimeFormatInfo();

Sometimes there are several keys map to the same object in the hashtable.
How to find them quickly given the object?

Does anyone know of an (unmanaged) function to print a signature given
the sigblob or do I need to decode the sigblob myself?
Thanks,
Mike

I was under the impression that once you had loaded an assembly into the
GAC, that you didn't have to make specific reference calls to the assembly
in another assembly.  I was under the impression that this was the way you
extended the .net framework.
