Comment on BlackOut – Screen Dimmer by Bruce

@Matt Thanks for the kind words and interest, that is an interesting idea, and I could see how it would be useful, I am currently a little to swamped to make that change, but when I get some free time, I'll see if I can make the change. It honestly wouldn't be to hard, I would just have to spawn a form for each monitor detected, resize the forms to fit their monitor, and then set up a method to control the opacity for each. The code is available, and love to see anyone else interested make the changes. If I do have the chance to make the changes I'll post the results here and email you, once again thanks for your interest and feedback.

To elaborate I would like to see a function which controls which monitor I can dim so I can have seperate controls per monitor.

I’m not sure, I would have to see the code to get a better idea, if you want to email me the code you can send it to bruce@bruceburge.com, either way best of luck with it.

Hi Bruce,

Nice article. I wish i stumbled upon this a day ago! After many struggles, I’ve compiled my dll and am able to create an instance of the object in classic ASP. My issue is that none of my methods appear to working. I am getting, “Object doesn’t support this property or method”. None of my methods are static so I’m not sure why this is. If I test the dll in a .net project it works properly. Any ideas? Many thanks in advance.

Firstly, thanks for the kind words, glad to see its helping someone.

Secondly, can you access the DLL in asp.net, if you can access the DLL from the GAC in .net, and not asp classic, it has more to do with the way your DLL was authored, and is not an installation problem. The Classes can not be static, as asp classic doesn’t support static objects as far as I know. If that is not the issue, let me know, and we can see if we can’t explore the issue further.

@tony Sorry for the delayed response on this Tony, But you will also need to install the .Dll in the GAC on your local development system as well as the web server you are deploying to. I used the same installer I made to install on the webserver on my local system, and have had no issues, if this doesn't resolve your issue please let me know.

Hi Bruce,

I’ve seen many of these types of tutorials, but I like your suggestion
of creating an install instead of using gacutil and other manual processes
for making the .Net DLL available to unmanaged code (eg. ASP).

I’ve followed your steps, and successfully created the install application,
and created the assembly in the GAC.

When I add the assembly reference in the web.config file, and try to use
that reference in a page codebehind, neither the assembly nor the class
is visible in intellisense. When I go ahead and try to instanciate the
class anyway, I get an error stating the type or namespace cannot be found.

I also noticed that I was unable to reference any of the assemblies in
the web.config in the manner you described in this blog.

Am I missing something?

Thanks.

Tony
