Hello, recently I was working on a project where I needed to automate
PDF generation. I found two open source libraries that I liked, but
the best one required the Windows.Forms class to be used in the C#
code-behind. When I tested the library, this worked fine in Visual
Studio 05.
What I was wondering was, are there performance concerns or security
concerns in using the Windows.Forms library in an ASP.NET website?
Will using it impact my scalability? All thoughts are welcomed, thank
you.

it depends.
asp.net server code can not create actual window.forms controls as these
is no desktop to create a window on. if you control tries to create a
window it will fail, but it may not need to.
a dll used in asp.net should be thread safe, this is not an issue for a
windows application, so you may run into problems here.

Thank you very much for your help.
The API I'm using for PDF creation was meant for Windows.Forms but
doesn't actually create any forms or windows. If I import the
Windows.Forms library in my C# code-behind it works fine. I just
wasn't sure if the functions in the Windows.Forms library scale to the
level needed for a web application. I'm looking at up to 200 users,
but probably no more than 30-40 at peak usage. I would like the
application to be much more scalable however and wasn't sure how
Windows.Forms would impact that. This thread has been closed and replies have been disabled. Please start a new discussion. Similar topics | |

A quick scan of the group did not immediately reveal an answer to my
questions so here goes.
First let me describe my app and then I'll ask the questions.
I am writing a Windows Forms App (not Web Forms) that serves as a thin
client to some web services. In other words, the Windows Forms app will be
installed on the client machines and that app will call web services that
are deployed on my server.

Let's say I have an MDI parent form with a textbox. If I create an MDI
child form and, at runtime, move the MDI child window over the textbox on
the MDI parent, the textbox appears in front of the MDI child window.
How can I make the MDI child window appear in front of any controls that may
be on the MDI parent?
thanks, John

I'm baffled by this -- is there not a typed object used for ComboBox Items?
Best I can tell, all of the methods for ComboBox that accept an Item are of
type Object. Why in the world is a common/standard .NET control accepting
an Object as a parameter type?
In Web Forms, there is a ListItem object that can be passed in to
add/retrieve objects from a DropDownItems collection. I searched Google
groups, and all the solutions I'm finding...

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
