Debug Silverlight application - breakpoint not hit

In cazul in care lucrati cu o aplicatie Silverlight si vreti sa faceti debug s-ar putea sa va treziti nici un brake point nu este atins. Cele mai comune cauze la aceasta probleme sunt:
  • proiectul web care contine XAP nu este setat sa permita debug si la Silverlight. Acest lucru se poate activa in felul urmator: click dreapta pe proiectul web care contine xap-ul. Sub tabul Web in zona de Debuggers, verificati sa fie selectat si Silverlight
  • puteti incerca tot din Properties de pe proiectul web din tab-ul Silverlight Applications sa stergeti link-ul spre proiectul Silverlight si sa il adaugati din nou( in cazul in care nu aveti proiectul adaugat ca si link, checkboxul de la punctul precedent nu o sa fie vizibil
  • verificati ca in browser rulati un url care contine http// si nu file//. Debugul spre linkuri spre local file system este dezactivat
  • nu sunteti atasati la procesul care trebuie( aceasta este o problema a Visual Studio care nu se ataseaza la procesul care trebuie). Pentru a va atasa la proces, cand sunteti in debug este nevoie sa selectati Debug->Attach to Process. Acolo trebuie sa selectati procesul care ruleaza aplicatia voastra( iexplorer.exe, firefox.exe etc)

Daca nici o solutie nu a functionat, atunci puteti incerca sa instalati din nou tool-urile pentru Silverlight, in unele cazuri chiar merge.

In cazul in care vreti sa folosti Firefox, este necesar sa faceti urmatori pasi:

  • Load FireFox
  • Type "about:config" into FF's address bar
  • Accept the warning (if applicable)
  • Search for the entry "dom.ipc.plugins.enabled"
  • Change its value from "true" to "false" (double-click)
  • Restart the browser

Enjoy

Windows Docker Containers can make WIN32 API calls, use COM and ASP.NET WebForms

After the last post , I received two interesting questions related to Docker and Windows. People were interested if we do Win32 API calls from a Docker container and if there is support for COM. WIN32 Support To test calls to WIN32 API, let’s try to populate SYSTEM_INFO class. [StructLayout(LayoutKind.Sequential)] public struct SYSTEM_INFO { public uint dwOemId; public uint dwPageSize; public uint lpMinimumApplicationAddress; public uint lpMaximumApplicationAddress; public uint dwActiveProcessorMask; public uint dwNumberOfProcessors; public uint dwProcessorType; public uint dwAllocationGranularity; public uint dwProcessorLevel; public uint dwProcessorRevision; } ... [DllImport("kernel32")] static extern void GetSystemInfo(ref SYSTEM_INFO pSI); ... SYSTEM_INFO pSI = new SYSTEM_INFO(

Azure AD and AWS Cognito side-by-side

In the last few weeks, I was involved in multiple opportunities on Microsoft Azure and Amazon, where we had to analyse AWS Cognito, Azure AD and other solutions that are available on the market. I decided to consolidate in one post all features and differences that I identified for both of them that we should need to take into account. Take into account that Azure AD is an identity and access management services well integrated with Microsoft stack. In comparison, AWS Cognito is just a user sign-up, sign-in and access control and nothing more. The focus is not on the main features, is more on small things that can make a difference when you want to decide where we want to store and manage our users.  This information might be useful in the future when we need to decide where we want to keep and manage our users.  Feature Azure AD (B2C, B2C) AWS Cognito Access token lifetime Default 1h – the value is configurable 1h – cannot be modified

ADO.NET provider with invariant name 'System.Data.SqlClient' could not be loaded

Today blog post will be started with the following error when running DB tests on the CI machine: threw exception: System.InvalidOperationException: The Entity Framework provider type 'System.Data.Entity.SqlServer.SqlProviderServices, EntityFramework.SqlServer' registered in the application config file for the ADO.NET provider with invariant name 'System.Data.SqlClient' could not be loaded. Make sure that the assembly-qualified name is used and that the assembly is available to the running application. See http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=260882 for more information. at System.Data.Entity.Infrastructure.DependencyResolution.ProviderServicesFactory.GetInstance(String providerTypeName, String providerInvariantName) This error happened only on the Continuous Integration machine. On the devs machines, everything has fine. The classic problem – on my machine it’s working. The CI has the following configuration: TeamCity .NET 4.51 EF 6.0.2 VS2013 It see
