Hi, What is the difference between locking on a container and locking on the container’s SyncRoot property. I have read the text in the docs until I am blue...
... I've heard that it's to avoid deadlocks, but I'm not sure how it helps. Could it be to avoid problems in case you have a reference to some sort of proxy..?...
Technically no difference. Conceptually, yes, the synchronized versions of the containers are using the SyncRoot underneath to acquire synchronized access. It...
... From the docs for Array.SyncRoot: "Note that some implementations of SyncRoot might return the Array itself." I'd guess and say that would be the typical...

Hi John, Ryan, Thank you for your thoughts. I think I understand it a bit better now. Google brought up this [1] reference to Brad Abram's blog. It seems...

It's the rules for C#. The base class must be first. Let's see if I can find the actual spot in the spec... Yep, section 10.1.2. The definition for the...

Rob, If you compile with /EHa (to enable asynchronous exceptions) rather than the default /EHs (standard C++ exceptions), you can catch WIN32 structured...
You'd have to ask Anders for the reasoning. I would guess that since there's only one base class, they put it first so it's easier to find it. There's nothing...
Gurus I am trying to create a COM component that stubbornly refuses to be created on any thread that has not entered the STA. I spawned a new thread, made it...
This is just a guess, but how about System.Windows.Forms.Application.Run( ) or some variant thereof? An STA has to run a windows message pump. -Chris ... From:...
Now why the heck didn't I think of that? Thanks Chris -- I will try this out. This will probably involve referencing System.windows.forms.dll -- any chance I...
Well, you could always use P/Invoke to call down to GetMessage, but I suspect referencing System.Windows.Forms.dll is a lot easier. No clue on the WaitHandle...
