does dot net has pointers

Two questions:

•  Why do we say delegates are type safe as compared pointers ?
• Can we define a pointer in C# ?

Hi all

Can someone give me some pointers on how to create this (simplified) workflow?

When an Item is created in a Calendar it should create a task in a Task List.
If that task is Approved it should send an email to the person who created the item in the calendar

and if the task was Rejected it should Delete the item in the calendar.

I can get to creating the Task but I am not sure whether I should then have a second WF linked to the task list?

Some help would be greatly appreciated.
PS: I am using Sharepoint Designer 2010 with Sharepoint Foundation

Hi again,

So...I'm a little stuck here, with my first server control. I'll just post the whole thing, as I'm sure I've done plenty of mistakes. The main thing for me to find out is if there's a more elegang way to write this.

What I'm trying to accomplish here is to write a panel with custom HTML inside it. Inside the custom HTML, I need to put some server controls I can actually reach. My attempt at finding the span  in the code failed, so there's obviously something wrong.

I hope I can get some help, as I can see so many cool usages for this :D

Cheers!

I have a program that needs to create an array of arbitrary dimension.  In other words, if you pass 2 to a routine, that routine has to allocate a 2 dimensional array.  

So I wrote a routine to do this.  Lets assume for simplicity that every dimension has the same number of values.  And lets suppose that if we want to get a value out of this array, we pass the indices as an array too.

So for example, if we have a 3 dimensional array, and we want to access array(3,2,7) we pass an one dimensional array that has 3,2,and 7 in it.

I've found a way to do this, but it requires a lot of multiplications to find the index.  So I thought of an alternative, which is this:

Select Case n
 Case 1
  dim ArrayN(0) as integer
 Case 2
  dim ArrayN(0)(0) as integer
 Case 3
  dim ArrayN(0)(0)(0) as integer
 Case Else

 COM interop: issue with C-style array of interface pointers 
  
Dear community,
I have an issue with COM interop. I need to marshal a C-Style array of interface pointers. 
I have changed IL to get this array marshaled correctly but I have issues accessing the array elements in the managed code. 
Below are the IDL as well as my three tries that did not work.
Any suggestions?

Thanks,

dpomt
