Is there some way - perhaps in Application_Sta rt - that I can prevent an
ASP.NET (3.5) application from starting.
I would like to perform some environment validation and pipeline
configuration during Application_Sta rt - and if those efforts, themselves,
fail or have some runtime exception, then I want for the application to not
start (i.e., the Web site should not be available unless all of the startup
tasks complete without errors).
How can I accomplish this?
Thanks! 2 1160
I know of no way you can make the entire application not available, but you
should be able to set a value that tells you something is wrong and then use
a base class for every page the person should not hit. I would still leave
the default page available and give a friendly error message to the user.

Since the OP, I thought about the option to use the app_offline.htm
technique described here: http://weblogs.asp.net/scottgu/archi...06/426755.aspx
Apparently I could - upon detecting that the runtime conditions necessitate
making the entire system unavailable, programmaticall y copy app_offline.htm
to the root folder. While this would apparently make ASP.NET completely
unavailable - which is the intended goal - it would also/therefore mean that
I could not use ASP.NET to remove app_offline.htm from the root folder of
the site. So this technique, while quite effective and simplistic (which is
good!) would also mean that it should be reserved for the most serious of
error conditions that would necessitate a system administrator to be
manually fixing stuff on the Web server... and the last thing the system
administrator would do is manually remove app_offline.htm to make the entire
site once again available.

Dear all,
I have an application which is suppose to start another executable process.
As soon as that process is running, I need to retrive its handle. The
problem of the particular process I am starting is that it has a welcome
window first which gets displayed and then the real windows after a while,in
other words it means that the process name is the same, but the handle I need
to retrive is the one from the final window and not the...

It only needs to display one image at a time. When a different program, in

Is there a way to set the security for a .net application so that it can
only be run on the machine were it is installed?
I would like to prevent users from being able to start the application by
navigating to a shared drive on the computer where the program was installed
and starting it using the shortcut or exe installed on the host computer.
thanks,

It is possible from a .NET application to prevent Windows from shutting

I understand that a .NET application can "know" that windows is initiating
the process of to shutting down - but what about *preventing* that shutdown?
(and yes - I know the user can always unplug the machine)
Thanks.

I built a VB.net application that makes use of a machine level DB
connection string setting, and a user level starting location setting.
The machine level setting and the default user based setting is of
course stored in the app.exe.config file located in the same directory
as the exe. Upon closing the form, I save the user setting which then
creates a user.config file in the appdata directory in my profile.
This is all well and good....

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.
