Just wanna echo this, works like a charm every time, good support, nice apps for android and iOS, own system tray application for windows and mac, whit nice features like automaticly connect to VPN if you are on an unsecured WiFi, also a lot of server clusters around the world and good support for different VPN protocols.

a) Is it a new engine, if it uses the Google and Bing search engine? b) The name smells awful lot of trademark infringement. c) A Internet without porn is like a Christmas without presents.

Have used codespaces.com in the past, and they have been perfect for my use and needs, at least

Well, we just have to wait 'til 31 of august in the year 4500, when the outlook calendar ends.

No need for worry, the UTF8 encryption is only the first layer of security, they have also applied ROT13 encryption, not once but twice, for maximum security.

Hi I want a billion dollars Thanks

And not to mention, in most cases comments a) states the obvious or b) lie to you, and only function as code-clutter. comments are the most misused feature of any programming language.

Do you work for Sony, by any chance?

No, not always, there are some rare cases where cluttering the code with comments are justified. But if you look at some code and thinks "gosh I better comment it, so other people understands it" then it is an indication that the code is a horror, why do you need to explain the system whit a language that is not designed to describe a system, when you allready have described it with a language that is designed to excplain a system? Wouldn't it be better to left click, refactor->rename and clean up the code so it tells the story you want it to tell, insted of trying to excplain the story by including a secondary language into your source files? also comments tends to become misleading and/or misplaced as the system evolves, so instead of excplaining the system it just adds to the confusion. so, hyperboled, I say, a well commented code is a indication that the system is dirty. and commenting in itself can also make clean code dirty by breaking up the logic and lie to you while you read the code. In most cases you could explain what the sysem is supposed to do better whit a programming language than whit english or swahili. And if you, god forbid, uses comments to add todos, changelogs or similar there are plenty of good tools out there for that.

If you feel the need to comment the code,then the code is a horror. Good code shouldn't be dependent on comments to tell the system story. Or at least that is my 2 cents That said, this isn't a big horror, it clearly states what it does, 3 nitpick is the use of prefix in the SMUser class name, and that the name of the method is somewhat misleading, and that the method does two things that a) should be clearly specified in the method naming or b) refactored into two separate methods.

the WCF calls must be asynchronous in silverlight, not so in WPF where they can be both synch or asynch, anyhow have resolved the issue, it was a case of service missing the assembly with the interface definitions.

_clientService is defined as

private ChannelFactory<IClientService> _clientService;

so it doesn't have a accessable GetOrders method. the _clientService is constructed like this:

BasicHttpBinding clientBinding = new BasicHttpBinding {MaxReceivedMessageSize = int.MaxValue};
EndpointAddress clientEndpoint = new EndpointAddress(serviceUrl);
_clientService = new ChannelFactory<IClientService>(clientBinding, clientEndpoint);

I have a weird problem on my hands, we are using IClientService / ChanneFactory to communicate with the WCF service, the method looks like this

public List<IOrder> GetOrders(string userId, string password)
{
List<IOrder> orders = null;
try
{
IClientService wcfClient1 = _clientService.CreateChannel();
orders = wcfClient1.GetOrders(userId, password);
((IClientChannel)wcfClient1).Close();
ServerConnection = true;
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
ServerConnection = false;
SendError("GetOrders() " + ex);
}
return orders;
}

and Fiddler2 Web debugger tells me that the request looks like this:

<s:Envelope xmlns:s="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">
<s:Body>
<GetOrders xmlns="http://tempuri.org/">
<userId>DemoUser</userId>
<password>DemoPass</password>
</GetOrders>
</s:Body>
</s:Envelope>

and the response like this:

				Di,Fe,Fr,Hi,Hy,Næ,Næ3,NæS,Op,Pr,RE,Sl,TG,VP
				20
				Restavfall
				20
				2011-07-20T00:00:00
				101610
				0
				10
				10 - Orkanger Test

so the response clearly contains the expected object, the problem is that, in the client side method GetOrders, after the line "orders = wcfClient1.GetOrders(userId, password)", the list "orders" becomes a list of 0 objects and not, as expected, a list with the one object returned by the service. anyone that have any idea of whats going on?

GUI design is trade in it self that requers much experience, Amazone'd it for ya' when it comes to the technical side of implementing a nice GUI in C# you could a) create your own custom controls using GDI+ or b) by a set of 3rd party controls like telerik WinForms.

what is best, saving images as BLOBS in db or as file on disk, depends on the situation, but I prefer to save it in db, since a)you get a clear connection between the image and data, b)makes things easier to backup,mirror and migrate c) makes it easier to search, sort, and so on, the images. when it comes to reducing the image size when saving there is some steps you can take: 1) automatic convert the image to a lighter format (eksample: jpg or png) before saving them on the server 2) automatic resize them before saving them to the server 3) re-encode the images with poorer quality but better compression. If you need to save the images as high quality, high res images in an heavy format like bmp or raw (maybe the spec specifies the quality and size of images or some thing), you could take a look at the System.IO.compression namespace or the zipsharp library.

make your mobile app save the location of the database file in the windows mobile registry. on your desktop app use rapi.dll to read the registry value on the mobile, and fetch the file using rapi.dll If the desktop application is writen in a .Net language you need to p/invoke the methods you need in rapi.dll. Hope it helps.

I have developed a .Net desctop application, and is planing to create an android application that functions lika a data collecting application. I have already created a Windows Mobile application and the synchronisation there is through the RAPI, and is planing to make a Android version, since we all know that windows mobile are loosing the mobile-war. The problem is that I am not sure how to make the .Net desktop applicatin<->Andoid device communication, The task for the synchronisation feature will be: 1) lockate the data folder for the android application 2) download those files from the android application into a MemStream 3) Delete the files on in the data folder of the android application I have googled around, but haven't found anything worthwile, so if somebody could point me in the right direction, I would be very grateful.
