Your comment is what sites like Digg, Slashdot, and Reddit are for. Be helpful or don't bother commenting. As you can see people have already commented on this post (in a helpful way). I am a developer not a recruiter (which is what Dice and Monster are for) and since I couldn't find a forum on Code Project specific for job postings I posted this in the C# Forums because it's a C#-related job.

I'm actually a developer not a recruiter but the company I work for has an open position and I'm trying to see if I can help find a candidate - where would be a good place to post a job in the forums? :-)

Hehehehe pretty nice right? I actually relocated from Portland, Oregon - they flew me over here and as soon I saw the beaches and the palm trees I was sold. ;-) We've been searching a bit for strong WPF candidates and having a hard time finding them so I thought I would give a try searching for myself on Code Project, Stack Overflow, MSDN etc... I have a hard time believing WPF developers are that hard to find but I guess it's possible. :) By the way Digital Man if you have a good background in WPF by all means send your resume over to me if you want. They don't typically pay relocation outright but instead augment your salary in some way to compensate for the relocation (heck they might even pay for relocation, it's case-by-case).

Hi Pete, Could you point me to the jobs board - I looked but wasn't able to find a forum specific for jobs? Thanks in advance, Azad

Hi all, I am currently employed by a company in Tampa, FL as a .NET Engineer with a primary role in WPF development. We are currently searching for solid WPF candidates to bring on board. This company has been in the area for 30+ years, is a privately held family owned corporation, and has very low turnover. Pay and benefits are very competitive and work environment is great. One prerequisite however is that you would need to live in Florida in or near Tampa i.e. no telecommuting. If you're interested send me a message via Code Project. :-) Thanks, Azad

Sound like you really know what your talking about...Steve-o... .NET is a great development framework. Programming languages do make it easy for people to think they know what they're doing...do you write your programs in assembly...oh wait that would still be a language. As for intellisense, it doesn't do anything except act as a reference for your code and any other classes you are working with, how does that substitute the actual use of those classes, methods, fields etc...? C++ is great so is C++ w/ .NET and so is C# and Java.

Thanks for the replies everyone, I'm probably not explaining myself too well...the method I am trying to use from my dll is a method that uses System.Reflection to be able to run any other method by using a string so when I say that the method in AnyDLL is referencing a method in my application pretend that the method could be referencing any method in any other application...essentially I am just trying to get the method in the DLL to run as if it were running directly in the application and not contained in some DLL...is that even possible? I was experimenting w/ DllImport and now I've begun playing around w/ Assembly.LoadFrom("dllname") thanks to an earlier suggestion... any more ideas? :-)

When you say "load the assembly" do you mean like [DllImport]? If so, I am currently trying to use DllImport and it finds the DLL, however, it says it can't find the entry point in the DLL, and I've made the function I'm importing the same name as the method in the DLL so I thought it would find it and it doesn't, so then I tried to specify the entry point by doing [DllImport("myDll.dll", Entrypoint="myMethod")] public static extern void myMethod() and it still can't find the "entry point" when I run the method in the code later? Do I have to specify something within the DLL? Thanks for the help, Taicho

Finally something we agree on, next time don't post a response to someone's question unless it's to offer help. These kind of responses devalue the title of MVP. :(

Is it possible to import a method from a DLL and run it as if it were in the same namespace? The problem I am running into is this (Application = CA2, DLL = AnyDLL) : 1. CA2 references AnyDLL and invokes method in AnyDLL. 2. Method in AnyDLL tries to use GetType to get a class in CA2. 3. Exception happens because the DLL can't see the class in CA2. Is there any way around this? I would think many different times a person would want to use a method in a DLL as if the code for the method was right there and not in the DLL? Any help is much appreaciated! :)

You're the kind of people that make people shy away from using forums- let us take the following example: I ask (trusting that someone with your wisdom in this language will help me, offer a hint in the right direction, or give an example): What is 2+2. You say: It would be better if you understood what addition is before moving on to advanced topics. I can understand that understanding these topics better would help me, that's why I'm here. The method in the code I posted works fine from within the same namespace just when I make it into a DLL and try and use it and the arguments reference a class and method from outside the DLL it doesn't work, so I guess what I need to do is figure out how to make the dll see the class or namespace that is calling the method from within it...if you can help me and offer up anything that is actually considered help it would be much appreciated. :) I also understand that I am probably not explaning this very well, but what I am looking for is someone who has run into a similiar problem and what their solution was for it.

Because I am experimenting with Reflection...If you could offer up any hints that would be much more helpful than trying to dictate what topics I should research...if I was to solve this problem then that would be a step towards the direction of learning and understanding this topic better...

Ok so here's the problem.... I have a solution that contains 2 projects one is the executable and the other is a DLL that I wrote that the application uses... the problem is that method I am using from the dll tries to reference a class and/or method from the application but since it isn't referenced I get an error here is the code: Application code: AnyMethod.RunMethod("ProcessModules","Menu"); //ProcessModules being a class in the application. DLL code: public static void RunMethod(string myClass, string myMethod) { Type myType = Type.GetType(myClass); MethodInfo myMeth = myType.GetMethod(myMethod); myMeth.Invoke(null,null); } Any ideas? I have a feeling this would use some inheritance feature or something but not sure...still very new to C#...There has to be a way the dll can reference a class in my other namespace without having to hard-code the reference right??

Delegates seem very interesting to me also...although I am having a little difficulty visualizing their usage properly from the MSDN article, is there anyway you could write out a little snippet showing how I could use delegates to call a method whose name is based on a string I enter? :) Thanks!

Thank you very much for both of your replies, I had a hunch that Reflection might be something I needed to look into, and I'll definitely give it a shot. :-)

Can someone help me!? :) I know in JavaScript I could use eval() to achieve this but I am not sure how to accomplish the same things in C#. Let's say I had a method in which one of the arguments was a string or any variable for that matter, and based on that variable passed to the method another method of the given name in the variable would run...(see example below), I am just getting into C# and any help with this would be much appreciated...! public static void RunAMethod(string methodname) { methodname(); //method to run } ///---- so I could do this from another method RunAMethod("runwhatevermethodIwant"); ///----- Is this possible??? :sigh: :(
