SysInfo Component?

Does anyone know if there is a free System Information component available
in .NET? I would like to retrieve all the SysInfo that the Microsoft System
Information utility does and store it into a text file for later reading by
myself.
Failing that, is there a way to automate the System Information utility
programmaticall y?

Thanks in advance for any help.

Sorted, solved it byt using the MSINFO32 COM component.
Now I have another question, how do I automate the DXDIAG utility??? I've
been looking for information on Google but don't seem to be having much
luck.

TIA

Sorry again, figured it out, should think more before I post... Tried
dxdiag /? in a cmd prompt and it appears it has parameters which allows
silently saving of all DX information.

Thanks anyway..

I had a situation occur today that's happened a number of times before and I'd like to get your take on it: Imagine... You're developing a WinForms app for a client that includes the use charts. So you purchase a .NET charting component, design the app, and deliver it to the customer. One year later, the customer comes back and says, "There's a bug in your app. The application crashes when I do such and such to the chart." I start...

How does one specify in a component that a property is a pointer to another component ? How is this different from a property that is actually an embedded component ? Finally how is one notified in a component when another component is destroyed ? I have a managed component called P. Let us say that C is another managed component. If on P I have: __property C * get_CComp(); __property void set_CComp(C *);

Hello everyone, I have created a custom component and one of its properties is a class object with it's own properties. During runtime, I can assign values to the class object properties just fine. However, when attempting to assing default values as designtime in the propertygrid, nothing is working on the class object. I know that I am doing it wrong, any ideas what it is? Thanks in advance

The definition of a component model I use below is a class which allows properties, methods, and events in a structured way which can be recognized, usually through some form of introspection outside of that class. This structured way allows visual tools to host components, and allows programmers to build applications and libraries visually in a RAD environment. The Java language has JavaBeans as its component model which allows Java...

Is it possible to have a component which is global to the entire application? I need to have a single component act sort of like a server which components in any of the forms can access.

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,...
