I have .NET dll and I would like to know    what platform was used to build. (x86, x64 or Any CPU)  if it is debug or release version.   Is there a way how to find this information?  Thank you.   (I'm trying to play with TFS build server and would like to verify, that my dll are build as I want)

I've got an arbitrary list of .NET assemblies.  I need to programmatically check if each DLL was built for x86 (as opposed to x64 or Any CPU). Is this possible?

To my amazement I just discovered that the C99 stdint.h is missing from MS Visual Studio 2003 upwards.  I'm sure they have their reasons, but does anyone know where I can download a copy?  Without this header I have no definitions for useful types such as uint32_t, etc.

What is the difference between standard i386 download and the amd64 download of Ubuntu 11.04? I am currently running the i386 on an amd machine, would my system work better with the amd64 download instead? (my machine was running Windows 7 64bit, but I neglected to look at that prior to installing Ubuntu).

We were having a problem with our build server not checking out modifications from source control despite recognizing that there had been changes.  It was traced to the control folder (not sure what it's real name is), the existing working builds were using _svn. Clearing the working folder forced a new complete checkout and I noticed that now the control folder is .svn. It looks like originally our integration routines were checking out code using _svn but now it is using .svn.  The svn.exe being used during integration is from VisualSVN Server can I set this up to use _svn again?  How the original working copies were using _svn I don't know! - we only ever ever used VisualSVN Server and haven't changed this.  We had setup TortoiseSVN to use _svn following the recommendation that this works better for Visual Studio and have also installed TortoiseSVN on the build server in case it is ever needed. Could this be the cause?  Also is this really necessary? As MSBuild is Microsoft's is it recommended as it is for Visual Studio?

I thought .com is an ancient form for executable, leftover from early MS-DOS days? Why do they use that today in WinSCP? And why only for the CLI version?  I tried asking this in their chat room, but received not a single reply for days. As always.

I'm possibly just blind, but is there a command line to specify conditional compilation symbols in MSBUILD?  I currently have this Line in my buildscript:  SET MSBUILD=C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\MSBuild.exe SET CONFIG=Debug %MSBUILD% /p:Configuration=%CONFIG% /p:OutputPath=..\..\output source\MyProject\MyProject.csproj   And I'd like to add a condition. In Visual Studio, i can just go into Project Properties => Build => Conditional compilation symbols, but I have not seen that option for msbuild?  Bonus Karma if you know if I can completely override all symbols already specified in the .csproj files to make sure that only the conditionals from my Buildscript go in.

I have windows 7 and this is running in the background.  Using process explorer, I can see most of the DLLs are named, but two are unsigned called locale.nls an SortDefault.nls. One has no description OLEAUT32.DLL.  What are these files, what do they mean, and should I be concerned if they are lacking descriptions?  I have never heard of an .nls file.   The Intel homepage is no help.   I would imagine this is part of the whole RAID setup, but I do not even know if I need to be running RAID if I am running WAMP or not.   Is this something I can uninstall, or would it be recommended to keep this? (I have an Intel Atom N450.)

I just want to clarify one thing. This is not a question on which one is better, that part I leave to someone else to discuss. I don't care about it. I've been asked this question on my job interview and I thought it might be useful to learn a bit more.  These are the ones I could come up with:   Java is "platform independent". Well nowadays you could say there is the  project so C# could be considered too but I believe it is a bit exaggerating. Why? Well, when a new release of Java is done it is simultaneously available on all platforms it supports, on the other hand how many features of C# 3.0 are still missing in the Mono implementation? Or is it really  vs.  that we should compare here? Java doesn't support events and delegates. As far as I know. In Java all methods are virtual Development tools: I believe there isn't such a tool yet as Visual Studio. Especially if you've worked with team editions you'll know what I mean.   Please add others you think are relevant.  Update: Just popped up my mind, Java doesn't have something like custom attributes on classes, methods etc. Or does it?

How to detect IIS version using C#?  Update: I meant from a winapp (actually the scenario is developing a custom installer that wants to check the version of the installed IIS to call the appropriate api's)

Last time I asked a similar question but that was about svn related versioning info. Now I am wondering how to query windows "File version" attribute about eg. a dll. I payed attention to wmi and win32file modules as well without success.

I am using C#.net for application development.  To log and debug exceptions, I use the stacktrace.  I executed my application on another machine, but when errors occur it refers to the path of my development machine.  Ex:   D:\Projects\xyz.CS line no :12 _Error_message_here.   Why does it trace to the path on my development machine path even though I am running the application on another machine?

I have an application that we're trying to migrate to 64bit from 32bit.  It's .NET, compiled using the x64 flags.  However, we have a large number of DLLs written in FORTRAN 90 compiled for 32bit.  The functions in the FORTRAN DLLs are fairly simple:  you put data in, you pull data out; no state of any sort.  We also don't spend a lot of time there, a total of maybe 3%, but the calculation logic it performs is invaluable.  Can I somehow call the 32bit DLLs from 64bit code?  MSDN suggests that I can't, period.  I've done some simple hacking and verified this.  Everything throws an invalid entry point exception.  The only possible solution i've found so far is to create COM+ wrappers for all of the 32bit DLL functions and invoke COM from the 64bit process.  This seems like quite a headache.  We can also run the process in WoW emulation, but then the memory ceiling wouldn't be increased, capping at around 1.6gb.  Is there any other way to call the 32bit DLLs from a 64bit CLR process?

Our build process uses Visual Studios 2003 link.exe for linking.  On one machine we're seeing the following error:  _X86_Win32/Debug/Intermediate/OurApp.exe LINK: extra operand `/subsystem:windows' Try `LINK --help' for more information   It appears to be using the same version of visual studios as the other machines.  Has anyone encountered this problem before?

Whats the easiest way to find out what programming language an application was written in? I would like to know if its vb or c++ or delphi or .net etc from the program exe file.

Has anyone used Mono, the open source .NET implementation on a large or medium sized project? I'm wondering if it's ready for real world, production environments. Is it stable, fast, compatible, ... enough to use? Does it take a lot of effort to port projects to the Mono runtime, or is it really, really compatible enough to just take of and run already written code for Microsoft's runtime?

How exactly do DLL files work? There seems to be an awful lot of them, but I don't know what they are or how they work.  So, what's the deal with them?

Is there any way to know in C# the type of application that is running.  Windows Service ASP.NET Windows Form Console  I would like to react to the application type but cannot find a way to determine it.
