Introduction to the BalloonWindow class which allows .NET applications to implement balloon windows similar to what is available in Windows XP. Complete customization allows both the appearence and shape to be configured as well as projecting an alpha-blended shadow.
This article is about the AutoComplete features enabled by windows and how to use them with C#. AutoComplete is the ability to expand strings written in an edit box. The article will develop a class for using this functionality in you applications.
This tool extends explorer with functionality of a command prompt. Implemented as a band object completely in C#. Demonstrates COM Interop and P/Invoke, windows hooking and API interception. Finally you can run all these .Net SDK tools and ‘Hello World!’ programs without leaving explorer shell.
This article is discussing the performance problems found in the most notable find_first_of implementations and suggests useful improvements and workarounds.
A design patterns approach for designing and explaining a Storage Explorer application. The application is used to explore file composition in a computer storage.
This article describes a design and implementation of the Remoting over Internet using the Advanced Web Services Enhancements - DIME technology. This solution allows to flow the binary formatted Remoting Messages through the Web Server included uploading and downloading any types of the attachments.
This article shows how to launch a process (such as a bat file, perl script, console program) and have its standard output displayed on a windows form.
Favalias application enables you to manage your favorites web sites in an XML file and to launch your favorites application using aliases. You can also make your own addins (in any .NET language) to call your own code.
