I'm building a relatively simple client-server app.  One of the functions of
the client is to notify the server when it terminates, this all works fine.
The problem comes in when the server is stopped before the client, in which
case the client "hangs", waiting to talk to the server ...

I have a situation like this:
abstract class A
{
 public ArrayList List;

For some reason my machine can't show text on buttons and lists in a lot of
.NET-win form apps - even my Terrarium client has buttons whitout text. I've
tried reinstalling .NET 1.1.

Hi,
I need my application (C#, .Net framework 1.1 SP1) to be able to detect
the automatic proxy configuration for the user. I can get the settings

When we updated the Framework to SP1 a strange thing happened to our
datagrids. If a cell was selected and the underlying datasource changed. The

should use structures.
- Should I use a structure when I know it will contain a lot of code?
- Should I use a structure when it will hold references to other classes?

I have a boolean variable like this:
[TypeConverter(typeof(MyBooleanConverter))]
private bool var = false;

I've been trying to connect to a secure server (basic authentication), and
while getting infamous errors I've decided to watch the messages passed
between them.
Here goes my initial request (i'm trying to use preAuthentication on the

In reading the documentation on AutoResetEvents and WaitHandle I'm not sure
whether they are limited resources (i.e. limited by something other than

resources" and I would like to know more specifically is ...

I have seen several topics asking about config files that are specific
to an assembly and the deployment of both.  What I have not seen

the config file.

Hello .NET experts
A group of develpers here are having some arguements about different ways to
write program with minimal memory footprint.
One method in buisness class creates an instance of another class and calls

I have an unmanaged function which returns an address to an unmanaged
object. It's implemented by native C.
I call this function by p/invoke, get the pointer in C#, and store it in a
class field.
