Want to work & share FULL-CODE base for #C WebBrowser ???

jOs
C#B - SHARED SOURCE PROJECT FOR A C# Browser

Let's sort this stuff out once and for ALL.

=============== =============== =============== =============== ===

Anyone who's having problems in the design space "C# WebBrowser
Customization" is welcome to join me on a project to refine, works & shares
the FULL-CODE base for a #C WebBrowser, to put it in CONTEXT, and ANSWER in
PRACTICE many of the questions/problems posted on these news groups.

=============== =============== =============== =============== ===

Here is the - RANT - FLAME - MOTIVE - for this project....

Take a look at the situation doing C# COM INTEROP on SHDocVw.dll, from what
I can see it's a complete MESS.
Partial bits of code from people saying "I haven't tested it, but this
should work". How hard does it have to be?

All the hype with the .NET programming interfaces, but when it comes to
making it work, it sure doesn't feel like 2004.

The commercial companies...

AOL, Encyclopedia Britannica, Microsoft Encarta, Microsoft Outlook,
Microsoft Studio, Qualcomm Eudora, Neoplanet, Custom Browser, Active
Worlds, Intuit Quicken, TopStyle, Allaire Coldfusion, company X, Y, and Z

....have got it worked out (admittedly in C++) but I'm sick of playing the
plumber, shifting around in their muck (little code snippets and crappy
examples) while they rake in the big bucks. How about something that works
for me??

All those UNANSWERED questions on the newsgroups. Where are the examples
that do a bit more than FORWARD and BACK??

What a mess. It couldn't be more regressive -- everyone going through the
same pain, wasting huge amounts of time trying to achieve something that's
been already been done a hundred times before. It seemed so simple (such a
common thing to want)-- hosting a Browser control on a Form -

setting a few properties, handling some events. Why is it still so
obscure?? Save me some time and tell me this SHDocVw COM INTEROP is not just
a poorly wired toy? Where are the real programmers who make things clear,
concise, viable and open for customization for ALL concerned, I haven't seen
their work in this

design space. How about some CODE? COMPLETE, IN CONTEXT AND WORKING.
Otherwise what good is it?

Don't we all have better things to do? Come on let's sort this stuff out
once and for ALL.

Seen in the Wall Street Journal, Monday, July 21, 2003, page B1. Lee Gomes' "Portals" technology column: "Two Men, Two Ways to Speak Computerese and Two Big Successes". This is a brief, non-technical story on Guido von Rossum, inventor of Python, and Larry Wall, inventor of Perl. I don't think this is available online unless you are a paid subscriber to the WSJ online edition. So here are a few quick quotes

Hi, Does anyone here have a strong understanding for the meanings of the terms "lvalue" and "rvalue" as it pertains to C, objects, and different contexts? If so please share. I've been reading several old posts/threads on the subject, and they never end with a conclusion (people keep correcting each other and disagreeing).

We are looking to select the language & toolset more suitable for a project that requires getting data from several web-sites in real- time....html parsing/scraping. It would require full emulation of the browser, including handling cookies, automated logins & following multiple web-link paths. Multiple threading would be a plus but not requirement.

Overview: 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,...

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers. The idea...
