This is correct behaviour.

Not handling exceptions - that's how the IAsyncResult pattern works. Your callback is guaranteed to be called, and the End... call will throw whatever exception you need to deal with.
In the case of listener socket shutdown which is what .Stop() does, it throws an ObjectDisposedException as documented on MSDN: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.net.sockets.tcplistener.endacceptsocket.aspx

All you need to do is:

code:

private void AcceptNewClient(IAsyncResult ar)
{
  Socket inputSocket;
  try
  {
    inputSocket = Listener.EndAcceptSocket(ar);
  }
  catch( ObjectDisposedException )
  {
    return;
  }

  // do stuff with the socket

  BeginListening();
}

You may also want to process SocketExceptions in a few cases.

So, what are you using for source control now?

Nothing, really.

the issue of rolling back to previous versions hasn't really been significant, yet

Any time you're working with a project that you aren't planning on deleting immediately, you should be using source control.

Personally, I recommend git.

Ithaqua posted:

I still find Git confusing, and I haven't had a need to get over that hurdle yet. For someone just getting started with source control, something that integrates seamlessly with the IDE might be better.

Git, TFS, SVN, even (*shudder*) CVS or VSS. Any of those are better than nothing.

This isn't VB6. While you can work with it as though it is, there are much better ways to do things now.

I've wondered about this for a while. Is this genuinely useable for a real project or is it just a toy? I mostly use C# at work but I have a Mac at home; it'd probably be easier to get myself writing more C# if I had the motivation of being able to use what I'm writing at home.

I have a method that iterates over the controls within a group box and does a particular function based on the control's type (ie combobox / textbox). However, some of the textboxes represent a range of data. I don't want to have to hardcode the method to do something like this;

code:

if (c.Name == 'txtCostLower') {do something}

I was wondering if there's some way to incorporate a SQL "like" feature so I could do something more along the lines of

code:

if (c.Name like '%Lower') { do something}

There's a number of textboxes I'd specifically have to check for, I'd really rather not have to specifically list every option.

I found this Like operator on the MSDN, but it doesn't seem to exist in my application's .NET version

Is there any way you can override the mouse click event in Windows? I want to make an app that will sit in the taskbar and give me the coordinate of the current location of the mouse cursor when clicked, but without activating whatever is beneath the cursor. I suppose if this is not possible, I could make a full screen transparent app that will sit on top of every other window, and will prevent clicks from going through.

There are many .net PDF creation libraries (PDFSharp, ITextSharp) which will take html and turn it into a PDF. I would recommend that approach for the PDF reports.

Excel is kinda a different question, do you want .xls or .xlsx? Most of the libs I've found support either one or the other, but not both. I've had good experiences with MyXls.SL2 for .xls documents.
