I didn't realize the file can no longer be downloaded. I contacted SkyDrive support regarding this.

In the mean time, I moved the DWM.dll to FileBox. Please try the link again as you should now be...

Amazon. For a book on algorithms and data structures and a book on C# programming.

The method you are calling returns the buffer of the MemoryStream. The trailing zeros appear because the buffer of the MemoryStream object is larger than its content.

You can see the list of C# operators here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/6a71f45d(VS.80).aspx

I never said it was impossible, I just said it's not optimal. But even if you decide to use regular expressions for analyzing the text, the bigger problem is using the richtextbox for drawing it.

If you want a good syntax highlighting component, you have to do a bit of work. First, it's not advised to process the text using regular expressions. When applying highlighting, the text must be...

The Garbage Collector will destroy only the objects to which no reference exists - if you remove the object from the list and you don't keep another reference to it, it will be destroyed.

Unfortunately, .NET doesn't help you in any way with that. If you just want to load a thumbnail, you need to read the binary file yourself and, as you said, determine the location of the thumbnail...

It depends. All wrappers are built over WinAPI imports so there is no strict requirement for .NET 3.0. If you get the wrapper with source code and it doesn't use any fancy new features of .NET 3.0 it...

I hope this is the right forum.

A while ago I wrote a C# wrapper over Windows Vista's Desktop Window Manager API to be used with WinForms.

I'm giving it away so if anyone wants it, it can be...

The underlying API is called TaskDialog. If you want to use it with WinForms instead of WPF, you need to create a wrapper for it in C# although I bet if you search the web you will find some freeware...

The garbage collector frees up memory whenever it finds an instance somewhere in memory for which there are no references pointing to it.

You can try the following:

Well consider that for a 800 x 600 frame at 24 bits per pixel you need to store in memory a little over 1 MB. At 400 frames you store more than 400 MB. I don't know if your bitmaps are discarded...

If you want to send/receive files, try using a BinaryReader and a BinaryWriter for this.

StreamReader and StreamWriters work on text files and only on specific encodings - that's why some text...

Use HScrollBar and VScrollBar objects. You can link them to the PictureBox like this:

In terms of IL, an assignement isn't an atomic operation per se - foo1 = foo2 can't be translated into a single IL instruction. The CLR works with a stack so all assignements have the form "store the...

Yes, you need a lock. While thread 2 looks up something in the dictionary Dic1, thread 2 shoudln't be able to change the reference of Dic1 to point to Dic2. Same thing the other way around. You need...

<1> Lots of good anwsers above.

<2> It depends on the actual needs. If you need members and abstract methods, use an abstract class. If you need a contract use an interface. There is no rule to...

System.Windows.Forms is the namespace used by WinForm projects.
Windows Presentation Foundation projects use all the other System.Windows.* namespaces, including System.Windows.Controls.

You can do this using Reflection. To assign a value to a field of an instance of a class, get the field using the GetField method provided by the Type class. Or you can use the GetProperty method to...

As MMH noticed, you get the stack overflow because you are trying to set the given value to the property, not a field.

Properties usually look like this:
