interop

I've an application that automates some file related jobs. Every job is executed inside separate threads. One kind of job is exporting an Excel file to HTML format. I use Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel namespace for this purpose. My application was working fine under Windows Server 2008 environment but we upgraded our server to Windows Server 2012 and I started to get the following error : The message filter indicated that the application is busy. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x8001010A (RPC_E_SERVERCALL_RETRYLATER)) The thing is first call to export function successfully exports Excel file to

I have imported a C++ library in my C# project. I can get the answer of a C++ method that has no parameters. What I want to do is to send some string parameters to C++ and get the result of it. In C++: public String SomeMethod(String param1, String param2) { //Some code } In C#: [DllImport("Library Path")] public static extern string SomeMethod(string param1, string param2); How can I do this? For strings that are input parameters passed from C# to C++, you could just use LPCWSTR (i.e. const wchar_t* ) at the interface on the C++ side, and marshal using the UnmanagedType.LPWstr option on the C

I'm using Managed Wifi to get the radio state of my Wifi adapter. How can I turn the radio ON in case it is actually off ? Something like this : WlanClient wlanClient = new WlanClient() var targetInterface = wlanClient.Interfaces.FirstOrDefault() if (targetInterface != null) { bool radioIsOff = targetInterface .RadioState.PhyRadioState[0].dot11SoftwareRadioState == Wlan.Dot11RadioState.Off; if (radioIsOff) { // TODO } } I just added this to the WlanInterface class of the Managed Wifi API : IntPtr radioStatePtr = new IntPtr(0L); try { Wlan.WlanPhyRadioState radioState = new Wlan

I have a custom binding like following for my WCF service which I am trying to call from the soapUI 4.5.1 <customBinding> <binding name="NewBinding0"> <transactionFlow /> <security authenticationMode="MutualCertificate" defaultAlgorithmSuite="Basic128" securityHeaderLayout="Lax" includeTimestamp="false" messageProtectionOrder="SignBeforeEncrypt" allowInsecureTransport="true" requireSignatureConfirmation="false" requireDerivedKeys="false" keyEntropyMode="ClientEntropy" requireSecurityContextCancellation="false" allowSerializedSigningTokenOnReply="true" messageSecurityVersion=

I got a PIA installed on my box, it is Microsoft.mshtml . If I understandd it correctly, these PIA is provided by Microsoft to ease our life of COM interop. But I want to know which COM component is actually wrapped/called by this PIA. Because I am having a UnauthorizedAccessException, I want to locate the actual COM component and use dcomcnfg.exe to grant it proper permission. I hope this is the right direction. Thanks! It is c:\windows\system32\mshtml.dll. I seriously doubt that dcomcnfg.exe is going to solve your problem, this is an in-process COM server. You might get more insight by using
