c# - Using the activeX Control "AcroPDF.dll" my application works fine, but crashes on startup if adobe acrobat is not installed -


i have application adds text pdf files, , have axacropdf1 preview panel borrows acrobat show status of pdf file, not necessary function of program, so i'd have program still start when acrobat not installed albeit more limited functionality, , user wont have preview panel fine. how can this?

the thing think try adding catch/exception when this.axacropdf1 initializing when program starts, allows me put message popup adobe reader required, program still crashes after that, have program start regardless, , not call on when adobe not installed, or other suggestions guys have application still function or without adobe.

i know how check if adobe installed, don't know how apply result program.

the catch exception on initializing gives following error (i'm noob not giving information here):

system.runtime.interopservices.comexception (0x80040154): class not registered (exception hresult: 0x80040154 (regdb_e_classnotreg))    @ system.windows.forms.unsafenativemethods.cocreateinstance(guid& clsid, object punkouter, int32 context, guid& iid)    @ system.windows.forms.axhost.createwithlicense(string license, guid clsid)    @ system.windows.forms.axhost.createinstancecore(guid clsid)    @ system.windows.forms.axhost.createinstance()    @ system.windows.forms.axhost.getocxcreate()    @ system.windows.forms.axhost.transitionupto(int32 state)    @ system.windows.forms.axhost.createhandle()    @ system.windows.forms.control.createcontrol(boolean fignorevisible)    @ system.windows.forms.control.createcontrol(boolean fignorevisible)    @ system.windows.forms.control.createcontrol()    @ system.windows.forms.control.wmshowwindow(message& m)    @ system.windows.forms.control.wndproc(message& m)    @ system.windows.forms.scrollablecontrol.wndproc(message& m)    @ system.windows.forms.containercontrol.wndproc(message& m)    @ system.windows.forms.form.wmshowwindow(message& m)    @ system.windows.forms.form.wndproc(message& m)    @ system.windows.forms.control.controlnativewindow.onmessage(message& m)    @ system.windows.forms.control.controlnativewindow.wndproc(message& m)    @ system.windows.forms.nativewindow.callback(intptr hwnd, int32 msg, intptr wparam, intptr lparam)

solution: decided use inno installer since have dll files, , in installer script, adobe check, , if dont have adobe or right version prompt user download reader. here basic code check adobe:

    [code]         procedure exitprocess(exitcode:integer);   external 'exitprocess@kernel32.dll stdcall';   function getacrobatreaderversion(): string; var   sversion:  string; begin   sversion := '';   regquerystringvalue( hklm, 'software\microsoft\windows\currentversion\app paths\acrord32.exe',      '', sversion );   getversionnumbersstring( sversion , sversion );   result := sversion;   end;  function getacrobatversion(): string; var   sversion2: string; begin       sversion2 := '';   regquerystringvalue( hklm, 'software\microsoft\windows\currentversion\app paths\acrobat.exe',      '', sversion2 );   getversionnumbersstring( sversion2 , sversion2 );   result := sversion2; end;    function nextbuttonclick(curpage: integer): boolean; begin      // default go next page   result := true;    if curpage = wpwelcome   begin      if length( getacrobatreaderversion + getacrobatversion() ) = 0     begin       msgbox( 'adobe not detected',  mbinformation, mb_ok );        result := false;       exitprocess(0);//adobe isn't installed, exit installer     end      else       //msgbox( 'acrobat reader installed version ' + getacrobatreaderversion() ,       msgbox( 'adobe detected',  mbinformation, mb_ok );        end;   end;

css - Make div keyboard-scrollable in jQuery Mobile? -

from can tell, although jquery-mobile-powered pages can contain divs overflow set scroll or auto, , these divs can scrolled one-screen bar or mouse wheel, cannot scrolled using arrow keys, page-up/page-down, or home/end. instead, official "page" div (with data-role="page") absorbs input. perhaps other divs can't acquire focus, i'm not sure. is there way around this? edit: jsfiddle of simple example: https://jsfiddle.net/qogz0shx/ <script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.4/jquery.min.js"></script> <script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquerymobile/1.4.5/jquery.mobile.min.js"> </script> <link rel="stylesheet" href="https://code.jquery.com/mobile/1.4.5/jquery.mobile-1.4.5.css"/> <style> #outer { overflow:scroll; height: 50vh; width: 50vw; } #inner { height: 500vh; width: 500vw; } &l

(6xworkers per machine - 2 ec2 instances). when did this, started seeing duplicate records being created! looks somehow, maybe 2 unicorn workers attempting process same request? in nginx logs see 1 [post] request particular rails controller - yet 2 records being created in database. i'm hitting kind of race condition issue - have no idea how debug this. doesn't happen time, when it's frustrating well. noticed 2 database records within 5 seconds of each other. (and yes disable button when user clicks submit button). unicorn 4.8.2 ruby 1.9.3 rails 3.2.14 any great! thanks! although may not fix problem, upgrade ruby 2.0.0. there blog mentioning idea upgrade ruby 2.0.0 if using unicorn. for example: https://www.digitalocean.com/community/articles/how-to-optimize-unicorn-workers-in-a-ruby-on-rails-app specifically: if using ruby 1.9,
