Embedding a minimal ASP.NET Web Server into a Desktop Application
Yesterday - Maui, Hawaii
Did you ever need to embed a Web Server into a non-Web application? In this post I describe how you can use host ASP.NET in a non-Web application and specifically in a WPF desktop app. What do you need, how is it different and some of the issues that you need to consider if you want to use ASP.NET in your non-Web applications.
Save Files With Elevated Permissions on UnauthorizedAccessException
November 03, 2023 - Maui, Hawaii
If you have an application that generically allows you to edit and save files, you might on rare occasions need to save files in locations that where a regular user account does not have permissions to save. Rather than failing wouldn't it be nice to let the user know and optionally allow saving with elevated permissions? In this post I describe the workflow and implementation on how to do just that.
