This is especially useful for XBAP applications, for example.

maybe. I never excepted a IMHO from a MVP, very sorry to say that.

I never excepted a IMHO from a MVP, very sorry to say that. > > VJ my own reply to your original question (which wasn't dumb at all by the way). The reason why I used "IMHO" (it means "In My Humble Opinion") is that IsolatedStorage fulfils more than one feature. I don't think that "to protect files" is the main advantage of IsolatedStorage. The main one in my opinion (here we go again) is to avoid roundtrips when the application runs in a sandbox, which is typically the case for XBAPs. Others may disagree with that ("main advantage" is not a, exact value, it really depends on what you want to do), so I moderated my answer using IMHO. The article I provided you, though a bit old, gives a very good insight in IsolatedStorage. Sorry if I offended you in any way. Being a MVP doesn't mean being an authority on all things, and like you I am still learning every day. Sometimes I prefer to moderate my replies using "IMHO" to indicate that this is my opinion only, and that others may think otherwise.

It's really nice to read.> Good post, by the way ;) Actually, rather than "Thanks for your help", and since obviously mine wasn't the answer that the poster expected, I'd have preferred if a constructive discussion had been started... Maybe next time ;-) Greetings, Laurent -- Laurent Bugnion [MVP ASP.NET] Software engineering, Blog: http://www.galasoft-LB.ch PhotoAlbum: http://www.galasoft-LB.ch/pictures Support children in Calcutta: http://www.calcutta-espoir.ch  |
