• Generics: provides compile-time (static) type safety for collections and eliminates the need for most typecasts (type conversion).
• Metadata: also called annotations; allows language constructs such as classes and methods to be tagged with additional data, which can then be processed by metadata-aware utilities.
• Autoboxing/unboxing: automatic conversions between primitive types (such as int) and primitive wrapper classes (such as integer).
• Enumerations: the enum keyword creates a typesafe, ordered list of values (such as day.monday, day.tuesday, etc.). Previously this could only be achieved by non-typesafe constant integers or manually constructed classes (typesafe enum pattern).
• Swing: new skinnable look and feel, called synth.
• Var args: the last parameter of a method can now be declared using a type name followed by three dots (e.g. Void drawtext(string… Lines)). In the calling code any number of parameters of that type can be used and they are then placed in an array to be passed to the method, or alternatively the calling code can pass an array of that type.
• Enhanced for each loop: the for loop syntax is extended with special syntax for iterating over each member of either an array or any iterable, such as the standard collection classesfix the previously broken semantics of the java memory model, which defines how threads interact through memory.
• Automatic stub generation for rmi objects.
• Static imports concurrency utilities in package java.util.concurrent.
• Scanner class for parsing data from various input streams and buffers.
• Assertions
• StringBuilder class (in java.lang package)

Create a flash project and set the Publish Settings’ ActionScript version as 2.

Step 2

Create two dynamic texts, named as txtFullUrl and txtBaseUrl.

Step 3

Create another layer; in first frame of that layer write the following ActionScript code.

Action Script 2 Code

function GetTheBaseUrl() {
var RootFullUrl = _root._url;
txtFullUrl.text = RootFullUrl;
var lastSlashIndex:Number = RootFullUrl.lastIndexOf("/");
var DriveIndex:Number = RootFullUrl.indexOf("|");
 
if (DriveIndex>=0) {
baseUrl = RootFullUrl.substring(0, DriveIndex);
baseUrl += ":";
} else {
baseUrl = "";
}
baseUrl += RootFullUrl.substring(DriveIndex+1, lastSlashIndex+1);
txtBaseUrl.text = baseUrl;
return baseUrl;
}
 
var BaseURL:String= GetTheBaseUrl();

Action Script 3 Code

txtFullUrl.text = this.loaderInfo.url;
 
var FullUrl:String = this.root.loaderInfo.url;
var lastSlashIndex:Number = FullUrl.lastIndexOf("/");
var DriveSepIndex:Number = FullUrl.indexOf("|");
 
var baseUrl:String;
if (DriveSepIndex >= 0) {
baseUrl = FullUrl.substring(0, DriveSepIndex);
baseUrl += ":";
} else {
baseUrl = "";
}
baseUrl += FullUrl.substring(DriveSepIndex + 1, lastSlashIndex + 1);
txtBaseUrl.text = baseUrl;

Step 4

Press Ctrl + Enter to run the application.

CSS GENERATOR

}
 
bool ValidNumeric(string str)
{
bool ret = true;
 
int l = str.Length;
for (int i = 0; i < l; i++)
{
char ch = str[i];
ret &= Char.IsDigit(ch);
}
 
return ret;
}

Method 1 : -
We can open Immediate Window from debug menu.

Debug->Windows->Immediate Window

Some times Immediate Window menu would be missing.If it seems to be missing for you then you can get the Immediate Window menu by going to Tools->Customize and then select the Commands tab, choose for Debug commands and drag Immediate onto the toolbar.Read more about this issue here.

Method 2 : -

Use the Keyboard Shortcut keys Ctrl+Alt+I

Method 3 : -
We can also open Immediate Window through VS Command window.Just type “immed” in the prompt and hit enter Immediate Window will open.

For more details about Immediate Window go to MSDN Link

has:attachment

just type has:attachment and the type of the file like pdf,ppt,doc,zip with a space.

Example :-

has:attachment pdf

When we click the search mail button we get the mails with the attachment of the type we specified as the result.Here in this example we get the PDF attachment mails as result.

There are also many easy tricks to find a specified mail in gmail like “has:attachment” keyword.You can find the list here.

Step 2

Design your own application. Here we have a simple login form for example.

Step 3
After completing the design and coding, build the solution of the project in release mode.

Step 4
Check the Release folder for the file “ProjectName.exe”. Here in this example we have the project name as sample so we can find a file with the name Sample.exe.  Double click the executable file and check the example.

Step 5
Create a Deployment Project. Select the “Other Project Types” -> “Setup and Deployment” -> “Setup project”. Here we have the setup project for example as “SampleSetup”.

Step 6
Add the Sample.exe project application file inside the “Application Folder”.

Step 7

To make a shortcut for the project right click “File System on Target Machine” and create shortcut of the application. Here in this example the project shortcut is created in program files folder.

Step 8
Create the shortcut of the application.

Step 9
Rename the shortcut of the application.

Step 10
Move the Shortcut file to specified target. Note if you need another shortcut for some other target also create use same steps.

Step 11
Now build the solution in release mode.

Step 12
The setup file created in release folder of the project specified path.

Step 13
Run the setup, step the path to extract.

Step 14
The SampleSetup project is extracted and shortcuts are created. Now run your application.

This utility can be used as a replacement of the standard Task manager of Windows operating system. Like the task manager, you can kill a process or its tree, see the CPU cycles and memory a process takes.

Download the Process Explorer from Sysinternals.

Open the process explorer to see the list of all running processes, its id…

Process Explorer

Right click on any running process and select ‘Properties’ to see its properties.

In the properties window you can see the process’s icon, image path, command line, current directory.

Process Properies

The TCP/IP tab shows you the network connection status the selected process has made.

Process Network connection lookup

Process explorer display consists of two sub windows, the default top window shows you the list of all active processes, while the lower pane is shown by selecting View -> Show Lower Pane or CTRL + L or by clicking on icon.

There is two mode of viewing details of a selected process in the lower pane, they are ‘DLL’ mode and ‘Handle’ mode. You can toggle between these modes by clicking on toggle button or View->Lower pane view-> DLLs (CTRL + D) ; View->Lower pane view->Handles (CTRL + H).

If the process explorer in ‘DLL’ mode, the lower pane will show the list of DLLs and memory mapped files the selected process has loaded. If it is in ‘Handle’ mode, the lower pane will show the list of handles the selected process has opened.

The Process Explorer also has a search capability that will quickly show you which processes have particular DLLs loaded or handles opened. The process explorer is useful for tracking down DLL-version problems or handle leaks,and provide deep perception of the way Windows and applications work.

Process Explorer does not require administrative privileges to run.
