Application Links

Is it possible in .NET to do the following;

Have a link in our Windows Application which when clicked will start a
program (for example skype) and call the person specified? Id ideally
like to be able to replicate the behaviour of a hyperlink (like <a
href='skype://....'>Click Me</a>) or similar, but within a windows
application,

Cheers

Jamie,

Try the LinkLabel control.

What happens in the click event for this control? I presume something
like process.start(" skype://..."), but Im sure of the syntax?

Thanks

You're right, this is how to invoke the default browser on a system and
display a page: Process.Start(" http://www.somesite.co m")

Greetings, I am building a database-driven PHP application. Part of that app needs to run over SSL for gathering private data. Now, when someone purchases a certificate, the domain name is hard-coded on the certificate, right? If so, how can I run part of the application in regular mode (http) and the rest in secure mode (https)?

Hi, I have an application consisting of a main C++ class (and other classes) stored inside a DLL. The application uses a small main executable that links against the main DLL, then initializes and runs the core class. The python bindings are inside a .pyd module that also links against the core DLL file. I was able to generate the python bindings against the core class using SWIG. The application can now be run either by the...

I have an application written in MS-Access. It is a complete application that manages the day-to-day operations of a business. The program is nearly ready to be used in other customer sites.

I am working on embedding Python 2.5 in my C++ application, and I have a few questions: 1) My application is multi-threaded; what problems should I be aware of if I create a separate interpreter in each working thread? The documentation is a bit vague (or perhaps I haven't found the right place). Calls into my application are already thread-safe. 2) Rather than implementing my own editor in C++, I would like to be able to use existing...

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,...
