How to run application from network folder
-
If you want your app to automatically just work from a network share you need to design it so it doesn't require full trust I need that in MDI child form Escape key closes form, Ctrl+F1 cycles and Ctrl+F10 toggles maximizing. For this I use code below in form base class which requires full trust. How to implement those features without full trust ? Andrus.
[SecurityPermission(SecurityAction.LinkDemand, Flags = SecurityPermissionFlag.UnmanagedCode)]
protected override bool ProcessCmdKey(ref Message msg, Keys keyData)
{
switch (keyData)
{
case Keys.Escape:
if (this != FormManager.MainForm)
{
Close();
return true;
}
break;case Keys.Control | Keys.F1: for (int i = 0; i < FormManager.MainForm.MdiChildren.Length; i++) { if (FormManager.MainForm.MdiChildren\[i\] == this) { if (i < FormManager.MainForm.MdiChildren.Length - 1) FormManager.MainForm.MdiChildren\[i + 1\].Focus(); else FormManager.MainForm.MdiChildren\[0\].Focus(); return true; } } return true; case Keys.Control | Keys.F10: if (WindowState == FormWindowState.Maximized) WindowState = FormWindowState.Normal; else WindowState = FormWindowState.Maximized; return true; } return base.ProcessCmdKey(ref msg, keyData); } }Andrus
Handle the forms keypress or keydown events instead of overriding the ProcessCmdKey method. Use code in their to max/min/cycle your forms based on the key pressed.

http://www.codeproject.com/KB/database/DatabaseAcessWithAdoNet1.aspx[^] states that DataGridView and other controls do not raise those events. How I can use those events when DataGridView is active?
Andrus
Ahh...interesting. Have you tried the _forms_ previewkeydown event? (You have to set keypreview to true)

It's because of the trust level assigned to the app. .net exe files run off of a network share are assigned a low trust level. (As opposed to full trust when run locally). If you want your app to automatically just work from a network share you need to design it so it doesn't require full trust. This means you can't do anything like writing to the local file system, using the registry, and a whole bunch of other stuff. (There are often alternatives, like you could use isolated storage for settings instead of the registry). Or, you can adjust the security to either explicitly trust a specific strong name signed assembly, no matter where is it run from[^] or explicitly allow full trust for apps run from a given network location[^]

Added union code group with "-url" membership condition to the Machine level.

Sorry, I've no idea about this. Try catching and logging exceptions at the top level to see what's going wrong.

http://blogs.msdn.com/jfoscoding/archive/2005/01/24/359334.aspx[^] States that MDI Parent form ProcessCmdKey is called before PreviewKeyDown. Probably Main form ProcessCmdKey consides those keys as special keys and processec them, it will not pass them to PreviewKeyDown.

Hi! There's a control panel for the configuration of .NET 2.0 if you have the SDK installed. When you select "Runtime security policies" (I hope that's the correct name, I only have the German version here...) you get the option to evaluate a given assembly with respect to all the permissions this assembly is granted. You could test your assembly to verify that the change in your security policy actually affects your application.

Sorry then, I'm out of ideas. There should be a way though. Detecting a key press barely seems like something that should require full trust.

.NET 2 SDK downlaod page says that this is obsolete and recommends to download Windows SDK for Windows Server 2008 and .NET Framework 3.5 from http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=E6E1C3DF-A74F-4207-8586-711EBE331CDC&displaylang=en[^] Whoe package is 1.3 GB to download which is too much. Which options I must select to install security utility ?

Don't know, sorry. Don't you have VS2005 installed? In that case, the .NET 2.0 SDK is already installed.

I have Visual C# Express 2008 Installed. I intalled "SDK Tools" from "Windows and .NET SDK" package but Control Panel does not show this utility. Installer created 2 directories, v6.0a and v6.1 containing files with same names. I tried some executables in v6.1 directory but they appear to do other things.
