windowsservice

I have a timer within my Windows service which is built using C# 2.0. We are in the process of designing the Exception handling. Since it is Timer runs on its own thread we would like to handle the out of memory exception. When that occurs we would like to stop the service. How can we gently stop the service when that happens on the different thread ?

Dynamic Type to do away with Reflection

One thing I’ve been doing a lot with it is to remove explicit Reflection code that’s often necessary when you ‘dynamically’ need to walk and object hierarchy. In the past I’ve had a number of ReflectionUtils that used string based expressions… >>> More
