i build a C/S based TCP connection.
Server send to Client data 20 times in a loop like this:
for(i=0;i<20;i++)
SocketServer.Send(data);
while Client receive data from Server 20 times in a loop :
for(i=0;i<20;i++)
SocketClient.Receive(data);
for some reason, at the 10th step, Client has an error and couldnt receive lots of data behind.
In TCP connection, the data after 10th step will be stored in System Chache. But i dont need them further. How to discard them and Empty System Chache?

Hmmm...Come to think of it, I don't remember seeing ANY predefined preprocessor constants. It looks like you'll have to define your own and manually set it.

Yeah, that's what I thought. Sometimes it amazes me how useful things like this are completely missing from the VS-C#-.NET hodgepodge of features.

IIRC, I saw some blog about a compiler version (perhaps a few other things) being added to the C# 2.0 compiler. Here's to hoping: ![Beer | [beer]](https://codeproject.freetls.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/beer.gif)

I'm having trouble with tooltips in winforms. I'm designing a control, and I need it to show tooltips when the user hovers within certain rectangles within it, and also popup with a rolling indication of a value as the user drags part of this control.
System.Windows.Forms.ToolTip seems a little lean on features to provide this type of functionality. If necessary I'll just hook back into Win32, but of course this defeats the very purpose of .Net. Any suggestions anyone?

There are quite a few good articles on tool tip components here on CodeProject, including balloon tips. I recommend searching for a couple of those.

Oh, as far as actually utilizing tooltip messages, see ToolTip Controls[^] in the Platform SDK. It is this messages you need to send and handle in your custom Control that describe how a tooltip should be displayed. This is for standard behavior, of course.

Basically,
What I did was making a Typed DataSet called "MessageDataSet" in visual studio .NET 2003
When I want to add the dataset to my webform, I get the following error message.
"Could not add an instance of DS412.MessageDataSet to the designer.
To resolve this problem, build the project, fix any errors, and add the instance to the designer again."
Problem is when I build my project, I don't get errors. It seems to be a typical problem on my computer, coz a friend of mine ran my project on his pc and no errors were given.
Allready reinstalled visual studio, but problem persists. Allready made new project and a comparable exercise, and still the same error...
I'm really desperate...
What can be the problem ? Has it something to do with my settings of visual studio ?
Thanx in advance far any give suggestion

Is it possible to write the html rendered by the datagrid control to a StreamWriter? I would like to write all the html formatting and data out to a static html file.
Thanks,
Jason W.

The rendering methods for the DataGrid web control (as well as all other web controls) use an HtmlTextWriter. You could extend that class and provide your own that could optionally write to a file in addition to the response stream. This forces you to call the render methods in ASP.NET, however, so you'll probably want to define an IHttpHandler and associate that with a different extension Type that does what the PageHandlerFactory (for .aspx files) would normally do.
MSDN had a recent write-up on .Text (a .NET blogger) that may help. Read Serve Dynamic Content with HTTP Handlers[^] for more information.
Another option is to define a handler (like above) or an .ashx file (by default, a simple handler that must implement IHttpHandler) that grabs the data for a DataGrid and calls RenderControl to an HtmlTextWriter created using the response stream. Then just save this file to disk. This wouldn't have any other page data - just the DataGrid output.

I need a little help here.
I am writing a winforms control in c#. This control is a non-static control that needs to have a client edge. So I started looking around for a suitable class to derrive the class from. I came up with two options...
1. System.Windows.Forms.Control
The control I'm writing is rather non-standard, and doesn't really resemble any standard controls at all. So i figured that it would be best to derrive from the Control base to make for a nice uncluttered start point. However there's a problem! I need a client edge. I could draw this with the ControlPaint.DrawBorder3D, but the client edge would remain outside this line! I have no way of knowing how much padding the DrawBorder3D adds. I could probably do it by working back into the old Win32 api, but that really defeats the whole purpose of me writing in .net!
2. System.Windows.Forms.Panel
...A second option which has served me well up till this point. Admittedly it has a lot of functionality for things like scrolling which I don't need, but overall it works well. It solves my problem of client borders - it does them automatically! It even provides a BorderStyle property which I _really_ like. It also provides setting for background colors or even background pictures! There's just one problem: System.Windows.Forms.Panel seems to eat keyboard messages before I get to look at them. I overide OnKeyDown, but I just don't recieve any messages!
Can someone tell me there's a way for Panel derrived control to recieve keyboard messages? Or failing that if there's a good way of providing a selection of client borders, and working out their padding, or alternativly if there's another base class that would be better suited to this kind of control?

How about deriving a CustomBorderedControl class from Control, and having your CustomBorderedControl draw its own border using GDI+, possibly emulating the standard Windows border styles as close as possible? Then you know exactly how big your border is because you made it yourself, and you can derive all your other controls from CustomBorderedControl. Granted, the borders would not necessarily match those of other Windows apps when the user installed a new Windows theme, but as long as you use only your own controls in your app, then at least it will have a consistent look and feel...

Yeah that could be one way to do it... although I'm a little tentative about manually drawing standard windows elements. I've made apps in the past which have looked perfect for win98, and then suddenly in XP they look totally yucky. This is somthing I want to avoid this time round - I just don't want my control to go obselete that way.

You could derive Control and use the ControlPaint.DrawBorder or ControlPaint.DrawBorder3D methods to draw the border you want; otherwise, you can get information about a border (like width, etc.) from the SystemInformation class and draw it yourself.
As far as a Panel goes, you really don't want to extend it. Besides including support for scrolling, it's a container control and allows other controls to be parented inside it. Keep in mind also that almost all the controls in System.Windows.Forms simply encapsulate Windows messages and classes for their respective Common Controls. How a control looks and how it behaves is defined by the common control class, which is a native (i.e., C/C++) control. The Panel class doesn't "eat" Windows messages, the underlying common control simply doesn't respond to them (well, not input messages anyway). It doesn't even have to override WndProc (nor does it).

Does anyone know how I would display the date that my program has been installed on a system? Also would anyone know how I would display the date(most recent) a report I have made in crystal reports has been printed?

An installation date is specific to the installer technology used to install the product. Windows Installer, for example, writes a registry key named InstallDate in the format YYYYMMDD. Looking at my Uninstall reg key (HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall), most of the installers besides Windows Installer don't.
If you want to have a printed date on your reports, then Crystal Reports already has support for that (just like the Office products like Word let you insert a print field). I don't remember what the field name is right off hand, but if you read the documentation for the Crystal Reports designer (or just search through the list of available fields when designing your report) it should be obvious.
