You are developing a .NET assembly which will be used from both, .NET components and COM components. How would you notify the caller that incorrect arguments were passed to a method?
- A.
Exception e = new Exception('Invalid argument'); e.HResult = 0x80070057; throw e;
- B.
Return Marshal.GetExceptionForHR(0x8007005);
- C.
Throw new ArgumentException('Invalid Argument');
- D.
Marshal.ThrowExceptionForHR(0x80070057);
Correct Answer
C. Throw new ArgumentException('Invalid Argument');Explanation
The ArgumentException is a built-in .NET class, and .NET will automatically assign the correct value for the HResult. You should set HResult only for custom exception classes you create. The HResult value will be passed as the error code to the COM caller.Rate this question:

What could you use to serialize an object 'obj' and write it to a stream 'outstream' using binary serialization?
- A.
BinaryFormatter formatter = new BinaryFormatter(); formatter.Serialize(obj, outstream);
- B.
BinaryFormatter formatter = new BinaryFormatter(obj); formatter.Serialize(outstream);
- C.
BinaryFormatter formatter = new BinaryFormatter(); formatter.Serialize(outstream, obj);
- D.
BinaryFormatter formatter = new BinaryFormatter(outstream); formatter.Serialize(obj);
Correct Answer
C. BinaryFormatter formatter = new BinaryFormatter(); formatter.Serialize(outstream, obj);Explanation
The correct answer is "BinaryFormatter formatter = new BinaryFormatter(); formatter.Serialize(outstream, obj);" because it uses the BinaryFormatter class to serialize the object 'obj' and write it to the stream 'outstream'. The Serialize method of the BinaryFormatter class takes two parameters, the stream to write to and the object to serialize.Rate this question:

Debug.Listeners.Add(new StreamWriter(Console.Out));
- C.
Debug.Listeners.Add(new ConsoleTraceListener(Console.Out));
- D.
Debug.Listeners.Add(new StreamWriterTraceListener(Console.Out));
Correct Answer
C. Debug.Listeners.Add(new ConsoleTraceListener(Console.Out));Explanation
TextWriterTraceListener is less efficient than ConsoleTraceListener. You cannot add a stream object to the Listeners collection, hence you cannot use StreamWriter. There is no object named StreamWriterTraceListener.Rate this question:

- A.
IComparable
- B.
IComparer
- C.
IEquatable
- D.
IEqualityComparer
Correct Answer

You have a function which should only be used by users who are part of the 'FavouriteUsers' group. You want to implement role-based security within the application. Which code snippet should you use?
- A.
WindowsIdentity user = WindowsIdentity.GetCurrent(); if (user.IsInRole("FavouriteUsers")) { //execute code }
- B.
WindowsGroup group = WindowsPrincipal.GetGroup("FavouriteUsers"); WindowsIdentity user = WindowsIdentity.GetCurrent(); if (group.Contains(user)) { //execute code }
- C.
If (Thread.CurrentPrincipal.IsInRole("FavouriteUsers")) { //execute code }
- D.
If (Thread.CurrentUser.IsMemberOf("FavouriteUsers")) { //execute code }
Correct Answer
C. If (Thread.CurrentPrincipal.IsInRole("FavouriteUsers")) { //execute code }Explanation
The correct answer is "if (Thread.CurrentPrincipal.IsInRole("FavouriteUsers")) { //execute code }". This code snippet checks if the current principal (user) is in the "FavouriteUsers" role before executing the code. It uses the IsInRole method of the CurrentPrincipal property to determine if the user is a member of the specified role.Rate this question:

You want to copy a file from one location to another. You create two FileInfo objects' 'src' and 'dst' for this purpose which represent the source location and the destination location. You want to copy all the permissions which the original file has to the destination file. You also want to ensure that the destination file does not inherit the permissions of the destination directory in which it is placed. What code would you use?
- A.
FileSecurity permission = src.GetAccessControl(); permission.SetAccessRuleProtection(true, false); dst.SetAccessControl(permission);
- B.
FileSecurity permission = src.GetAccessControl(); permission.SetAccessRuleProtection(true, true); dst.SetAccessControl(permission);
- C.
FileSecurity permission = src.GetAccessControl(); permission.SetAccessRuleProtection(false, false); dst.SetAccessControl(permission);
- D.
FileSecurity permission = src.GetAccessControl(); permission.SetAccessRuleProtection(false, true); dst.SetAccessControl(permission);
Correct Answer
B. FileSecurity permission = src.GetAccessControl(); permission.SetAccessRuleProtection(true, true); dst.SetAccessControl(permission);Explanation
The first parameter in SetAccessRuleProtection determines whether permissions can be modified/inherited from the destination directory. The second parameter determines whether the current permissions that are being inherited from the current source folder should be copied or not. We require that both these parameters are set to true.Rate this question:

- B.
[UrlIdentityPermission(SecurityAction.LinkDemand, Url="http://myintranet")]
- C.
[UrlIdentityPermission(SecurityAction.Demand, Url="http://myintranet")]
- D.
[UrlIdentityPermission(SecurityAction.Assert, Url="http://myintranet")]
Correct Answer
B. [UrlIdentityPermission(SecurityAction.LinkDemand, Url="http://myintranet")]Explanation
LinkDemand should be used. it ensures that all callers in the call stack have the necessary permission .in this case it ensures that all callers in the call stack are on the local intranet.Rate this question:

How can you retrieve a reference to the current application domain?
- A.
AppDomain ad = AppDomain.Current;
- B.
AppDomain ad = Thread.GetDomain();
- C.
AppDomain ad = Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentDomain;
- D.
AppDomain ad = AppDomain.GetCurrentDomain();
Correct Answer
B. AppDomain ad = Thread.GetDomain();Explanation
The correct answer is "AppDomain ad = Thread.GetDomain();". This line of code retrieves a reference to the current application domain by using the GetDomain() method of the Thread class. The GetDomain() method returns the AppDomain object that represents the application domain in which the current thread is executing.Rate this question:

- A.
Hash.Compute(byteArray);
- B.
Hash.ComputeHash(byteArray);
- C.
Hash = new HashAlgorithm(byteArray); hash.Compute();
- D.
Hash = new HashAlgorithm(byteArray); hash.ComputeHash();
Correct Answer
B. Hash.ComputeHash(byteArray);Explanation
The correct code to generate the hash for the given scenario is "hash.ComputeHash(byteArray)". This code will use the HashAlgorithm object to compute the hash value for the data stored in the byte array. The ComputeHash method is specifically designed for this purpose and will generate the hash value that can be used to detect any corruption in the data.Rate this question:

For the employees in a company, you need to store their salaries. Given an employee name, you want to find the salary as efficiently as possible. Currently, there are only 4 employees in the company, but you expect that number to go up to 100 by the year-end. Which object should you use?
- A.
StringCollection
- B.
HybridDictionary
- C.
HashTable
- D.
ArrayList
Correct Answer
B. HybridDictionaryExplanation
You should use the HybridDictionary since this class is efficient when the number of entries is small as well as large. The HashTable is not efficient when the number of entries is small. The StringCollection and ArrayList are not efficient for performing fast lookups � when the number of entries is small the performance hit may go unnoticed, but when the number of entries is large, they are much less efficient compared to HashTable and HybridDictionary.Rate this question:

You create an Employee object as such: [Serializable] public class Employee { public string Name; private long Salary; } When the employee object is serialized, you do not want the Salary field to be persisted. What is the easiest way to do this?
- A.
Add the NonSerialized attribute to the Salary field.
- B.
Have the Employee class implement ISerializable, and in the GetObjectData method, don't persist the Salary field.
- C.
Do nothing. since Salary is a private field.
- D.
Have the Employee class implement IFormatter for customizing the serialization process.
Correct Answer
A. Add the NonSerialized attribute to the Salary field.Explanation
The easiest way to prevent the Salary field from being persisted when serializing the Employee object is to add the NonSerialized attribute to the Salary field. This attribute tells the serializer to ignore the field during the serialization process.Rate this question:

You write a function that calculates the square root of numbers. The number passed in as a parameter must be greater than or equal to 0. If the number is less than 0, then in your debug build, you want to display a message box to the user. What code would do this in the best possible way?
- A.
If (parameter < 0) MessageBox.Show("parameter cannot be less than 0");
- B.
#if DEBUG if (parameter < 0) MessageBox.Show("parameter cannot be less than 0"); #endif
- C.
Debug.Assert(parameter >= 0, "parameter cannot be less than 0");
- D.
If (parameter < 0) Debug.Assert("parameter cannot be less than 0");
Correct Answer
C. Debug.Assert(parameter >= 0, "parameter cannot be less than 0");Explanation
The correct answer is Debug.Assert(parameter >= 0, "parameter cannot be less than 0"). This code uses the Debug.Assert method, which is specifically designed for debugging purposes. It checks if the parameter is less than 0 and if it is, it will display an assertion message with the specified error message. This helps in identifying and fixing issues during the debugging process.Rate this question:

Which methods of the FileStream class affect the Position property?
- A.
Read
- B.
Write
- C.
Seek
- D.
Lock
- E.
Unlock
Correct Answer(s)
A. Read
B. Write
C. SeekExplanation
The methods of the FileStream class that affect the Position property are Read, Write, and Seek. The Read method reads a sequence of bytes from the current position in the file, advancing the Position property. The Write method writes a sequence of bytes to the current position in the file, also advancing the Position property. The Seek method sets the position within the file based on the specified offset, affecting the Position property accordingly. The Lock and Unlock methods are not related to the Position property and do not affect it.Rate this question:

You want to add a key-value pair to a HashTable 'table'. However, you need to make sure that the key doesn't already exist in the HashTable. What code could you use?
- A.
Try { table.Add(key, value); } catch (Exception e) { //key already exists }
- B.
If (table.Contains(key)) //key exists
- C.
If (table.ContainsKey(key)) //key exists
- D.
If (!table.TryAdd(key, value)) //key exists
Correct Answer(s)
B. If (table.Contains(key)) //key exists
C. If (table.ContainsKey(key)) //key existsExplanation
The correct answer is "if (table.Contains(key)) //key exists" and "if (table.ContainsKey(key)) //key exists" because both methods check if the key already exists in the HashTable. If the key exists, it means that the key-value pair cannot be added because it would result in a duplicate key.Rate this question:

What are the restrictions imposed on the signature of a method that is called when a serialization event occurs?
- A.
Must not have any parameters (void)
- B.
Must not return anything (void)
- C.
Must take a StreamingContext parameter
- D.
Must return a StreamingContext object
Correct Answer(s)
B. Must not return anything (void)
C. Must take a StreamingContext parameterExplanation
When a serialization event occurs, the method that is called must not return anything (void) because the serialization process does not expect any return value from the method. Additionally, the method must take a StreamingContext parameter because the StreamingContext object provides information about the source or destination of the serialized data.Rate this question:

You need to compress a Stream 'source file' and store the compressed bytes in another Stream 'destFile'. You also want to enable Cyclic Redundancy Checks in the compressed stream. What code would you use?
- A.
Void Compress(Stream sourceFile, Stream destFile) { GZipStream compStream = new GZipStream(destFile, CompressionMode.Compress); int theByte = sourceFile.ReadByte(); while (theByte != -1) { compStream.WriteByte((byte)theByte); theByte = sourceFile.ReadByte(); } compStream.Flush(); }
- B.
Void Compress(Stream sourceFile, Stream destFile) { GZipStream compStream = new GZipStream(sourceFile, CompressionMode.Compress); int theByte = compStream.ReadByte(); while (theByte != -1) { destFile.WriteByte((byte)theByte); theByte = compStream.ReadByte(); } destFile.Flush(); }
- C.
Void Compress(Stream sourceFile, Stream destFile) { DeflateStream compStream = new DeflateStream(destFile, CompressionMode.Compress); int theByte = sourceFile.ReadByte(); while (theByte != -1) { compStream.WriteByte((byte)theByte); theByte = sourceFile.ReadByte(); } compStream.Flush(); }
- D.
Void Compress(Stream sourceFile, Stream destFile) { DeflateStream compStream = new DeflateStream(sourceFile, CompressionMode.Compress); int theByte = compStream.ReadByte(); while (theByte != -1) { destFile.WriteByte((byte)theByte); theByte = compStream.ReadByte(); } destFile.Flush(); }
Correct Answer
A. Void Compress(Stream sourceFile, Stream destFile) { GZipStream compStream = new GZipStream(destFile, CompressionMode.Compress); int theByte = sourceFile.ReadByte(); while (theByte != -1) { compStream.WriteByte((byte)theByte); theByte = sourceFile.ReadByte(); } compStream.Flush(); }Explanation
During both compression and decompression, the DeflateStream or GZipStream objects must wrap the stream that holds/will hold the compressed bytes.
When using DeflateStream, no CRC checks are performed.Rate this question:

You want to encrypt the network communication while sending an email to an smtp server. Which code should you use?
- A.
SmtpClient.EnableEncryption = true;
- B.
SmtpClient.UseEncryption = true;
- C.
=SmtpClient.EnableSsl = true;
- D.
SmtpClient.UseSsl = true;
Correct Answer
C. =SmtpClient.EnableSsl = true;Explanation
The correct answer is "=SmtpClient.EnableSsl = true;". This is because the "EnableSsl" property is used to enable SSL encryption for the network communication with the SMTP server. SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) is a cryptographic protocol that provides secure communication over a network. By setting "EnableSsl" to true, the email communication will be encrypted, ensuring that the data sent between the client and the server is protected from unauthorized access.Rate this question:

If a class implements ISerializable, it needs to provide a constructor that takes two parameters. What are the types of those parameters?
- A.
BinaryFormatter
- B.
StreamingContext
- C.
ObjectManager
- D.
SerializationInfo
Correct Answer(s)
B. StreamingContext
D. SerializationInfoExplanation
If a class implements ISerializable, it needs to provide a constructor that takes two parameters. The first parameter is of type StreamingContext, which provides contextual information about the source or destination of the serialized data. The second parameter is of type SerializationInfo, which holds the serialized object data. These parameters are necessary for the class to properly deserialize and reconstruct the object from the serialized data.Rate this question:

Class MyService : System.ServiceProcess.ServiceHost { //implementation }
- C.
Class MyService : System.ServiceProcess.ServiceBase { //implementation }
- D.
Class MyService : System.ServiceProcess.Service { //implementation }
Correct Answer
C. Class MyService : System.ServiceProcess.ServiceBase { //implementation }Explanation
The correct answer is "class MyService : System.ServiceProcess.ServiceBase { //implementation }". This is because the ServiceBase class is the base class for creating a Windows Service in C#. It provides the necessary methods and properties to control the service's lifecycle, such as OnStart, OnStop, and OnPause. The other options (WindowsService, ServiceHost, and Service) are not valid base classes for creating a Windows Service.Rate this question:

Correct Answer
A. String inFileName = "input file path"; string outFileName = "encrypted file path"; FileStream inFile = new FileStream(inFileName, FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read); FileStream outFile = new FileStream(outFileName, FileMode.OpenOrCreate, FileAccess.Write); SymmetricAlgorithm myAlg = new RijndaelManaged(); myAlg.GenerateKey(); byte[] fileData = new byte[inFile.Length]; inFile.Read(fileData, 0, (int)inFile.Length); ICryptoTransform encryptor = myAlg.CreateEncryptor(); CryptoStream encryptStream = new CryptoStream(outFile, encryptor, CryptoStreamMode.Write); encryptStream.Write(fileData, 0, fileData.Length); encryptStream.Close(); inFile.Close(); outFile.Close();Explanation
The CryptoStream object should wrap the stream that holds / will hold the encrypted data. Also, the CryptoStreamMode parameter should reflect the operation that will be carried out on the encrypted stream. Therefore, for encryption, since you will be writing to the encrypted stream, this parameter should be CryptoStreamMode.WriteRate this question:

You want to use the RSA algorithm to encrypt a string 'messageString' and obtain the encrypted bytes. What code would you use?
- A.
RSACryptoServiceProvider myRsa = new RSACryptoServiceProvider(); byte[] messageBytes = Encoding.Unicode.GetBytes(messageString); myRsa.Encrypt(messageBytes); byte[] encryptedBytes = new byte[messageBytes.Length]; myRsa.GetEncryptedBytes(encryptedBytes);
- B.
RSACryptoServiceProvider myRsa = new RSACryptoServiceProvider(); byte[] messageBytes = Encoding.Unicode.GetBytes(messageString); byte[] encryptedMessage = myRsa.Encrypt(messageBytes, false);
- C.
RSACryptoServiceProvider myRsa = new RSACryptoServiceProvider(); byte[] messageBytes = Encoding.Unicode.GetBytes(messageString); myRsa.Read(messageBytes); byte[] encryptedBytes = new byte[messageBytes.Length]; myRsa.Write(encryptedBytes);
- D.
RSACryptoServiceProvider myRsa = new RSACryptoServiceProvider(); byte[] encryptedMessage = myRsa.Encrypt(messageString, false);
Correct Answer
B. RSACryptoServiceProvider myRsa = new RSACryptoServiceProvider(); byte[] messageBytes = Encoding.Unicode.GetBytes(messageString); byte[] encryptedMessage = myRsa.Encrypt(messageBytes, false);Explanation
The correct answer is RSACryptoServiceProvider myRsa = new RSACryptoServiceProvider(); byte[] messageBytes = Encoding.Unicode.GetBytes(messageString); byte[] encryptedMessage = myRsa.Encrypt(messageBytes, false). This code correctly initializes an instance of the RSACryptoServiceProvider class, converts the message string to bytes using the Unicode encoding, and then encrypts the message bytes using the RSA algorithm with the specified padding mode (in this case, false indicates no padding). The encrypted message is stored in the encryptedMessage byte array.Rate this question:

Correct Answer
A. ConnectionOptions DemoOptions = new ConnectionOptions(); DemoOptions.Username = "username"; DemoOptions.Password = "password"; ManagementScope DemoScope = new ManagementScope("machinename", DemoOptions); ObjectQuery DemoQuery = new ObjectQuery("SELECT Size, Name FROM Win32_LogicalDisk where DriveType=3"); ManagementObjectSearcher DemoSearcher = new ManagementObjectSearcher(DemoScope, DemoQuery); ManagementObjectCollection AllObjects = DemoSearcher.Get(); foreach (ManagementObject DemoObject in AllObjects) { Console.WriteLine("Resource Name: " + DemoObject["Name"].ToString()); Console.WriteLine("Resource Size: " + DemoObject["Size"].ToString()); }Explanation
The given code snippet uses Management Objects to retrieve a list of logical drives on a machine. It first creates a ConnectionOptions object and sets the username and password for authentication. Then, it creates a ManagementScope object with the machine name and the ConnectionOptions. Next, it creates an ObjectQuery object with the query to select the logical drives with DriveType=3 (which represents local disk drives). After that, it creates a ManagementObjectSearcher object with the ManagementScope and ObjectQuery. It then calls the Get() method on the ManagementObjectSearcher to retrieve all the matching objects. Finally, it iterates over the ManagementObjectCollection and prints the name and size of each logical drive.Rate this question:

In order to use the for each statement, what interface needs to be implemented by the target class?
- A.
IEnumerable
- B.
IEnumerator
- C.
ICollection
- D.
IList
Correct Answer
B. IEnumeratorExplanation
The correct answer is IEnumerator. The for each statement is used to iterate over a collection of items. In order to use this statement, the target class needs to implement the IEnumerator interface. This interface provides the necessary methods for iterating over the collection, such as MoveNext() to move to the next item and Current to get the current item. By implementing this interface, the target class can be used in a for each loop to iterate over its items.Rate this question:
