Thanks. I wound up just changing the names of the fields in one of the data tables and that worked for the data binding issue. Regarding the repetitive fields, well, it takes the 3 fields to uniquely identify a record, but I want to separate the data into two tables because the information in these particular tables aside from the primary key fields is quite different and used in different contexts, for different purposes.
I suppose I could create a lookup table that would link an ID to the three fields and both tables could reference the look up table, but, well, that would require more software revision because the ServiceDetails table is a recent addition to the database in question whereas the SerialNumber table has been used extensively with its current structure for quite some time and I'd have to redo a bit of code to use a modified structure.

Hi i developed a tool , which allows you to download whole the source code from microsoft at once.
You don't need vs2008 for this, and you can debug the source code without vs2008.
Just grab your copy from Net Mass Downloader.
You can contact me about the tool via my mail address keremskusmezer@gmail.com

There was an excellent article that someone wrote on relation to updating GUI from a seperate thread.
This article related to setting a property called RaiseExceptionOfSomeKind = false.
Very simple yet very effecient.
I am sad to report that I am blanking out compeltely on that article. If someone has the foggiest idea as to what am I talking about please post a link.
This is what happens when you give up drinking..amnesia.
Thanks

Updating a Gui from a thread other than the one it was created on "often leads to unpredictable results" (MSDN[^]). See here[^] for the proper way to do so.
|
|
|
|
|
Found what I was looking for. It took a little while to do the right search.
http://www.codeproject.com/KB/user-controls/AlternateMultithreadedGUI.aspx.
The property I was looking for is CheckForIllegalThreadCalls = false.
Back to drinking,
|
|
|
|
|
THRERE are two ways
1. the wrong way that microsoft allowed
Set this property like:
<br />
CheckForIllegalCrossThreadCalls = false;<br />
2. the right way :
create a delegate to the function that updates the GUI and a handler
and use the invoke Method to wake the method
see here : http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/zyzhdc6b.aspx[^]

Thank half-life. I was aware of the second way as well. I was experimenting with a few things so I thoiught of this CheckForIllegalCrossThreadCalls = false;
thing I read on codeproject a while ago.

I wanted to add a dockable interface to my application and I don't really like the idea of including a third-party dll in my application. So I though and I had the idea of embedding my controls in toolbars.
Can you give me an example of how to put a custom control in a toolbar. Or is this impossible? Help would be greatly appreciated.

So, I'd like this to work:
Thread t = new Thread(new ThreadStart(StartProcess));<br />
int i = 0;<br />
int numThreads = 10;<br />
while (i <= numThreads)<br />
{<br />
t.Start();<br />
i++;<br />
}<br />
But I know it doesn't  .
Can anyone tell me how to get this working?
|
|
|
|

Keep in mind you don't want to do something like this so I'm not sure what value there is in showing you.
int i = 0;<br />
int numThreads = 10;<br />
while (i <= numThreads)<br />
{<br />
Thread t = new Thread(new ThreadStart(StartProcess));<br />
t.Start();<br />
i++;<br />
}

I would like to be able to dynamically identify how many threads I want the the application to use.
The problem is that the function is blocking, so I need a new thread for each function.
|
|
|
|
|
Use an array containing the threads you wish to create. Also use the QueueUserWorkItem instead (from the threadpool) it is faster.
Also, test of mine of confirmed that using this scenario rarely works faster unless the threads are waiting on different resources.

Based on what? What criteria do you think you will be using to make that determination?
miles.smith wrote: so I need a new thread for each function.
No, what you need is to do some reading on the subject of multi-thread application development. I don't know what current sources there are but years ago I found Advanced Windows by Richter to be a valuable resource on the subject of multi-threading

Okay, I'll go do some reading up on that. It seems like I'm not understanding what my requirements are!
Thanks.

Excellent decision, there is hope for you. Don't expect miracles though. The subject can be rather elusive. Take your time, it's worth getting it right.

Hello,
Can anybody give me link or provide sample source as how to let EMAB know about the newly added custom Exception Handler class without adding it to configuration file?
Enterprise library depends on Configuration file settings to know about any new custom Exception Handlers, which as a developer we need to configure (add using EL Configuration Console). But i don't want to do that, i just want EMAB to pickup the Class implementing IExceptionHandler from current Assembly.
Thanks

Be aware that adding to a textbox with alot of text in it is a very slow operation. You'll want to keep the buffer displayed in it very short to keep CPU usage reasonable.
Otherwise [Microsoft is] toast in the long term no matter how much money they've got. They would be already if the Linux community didn't have it's head so firmly up it's own command line buffer that it looks like taking 15 years to find the desktop.

is there a way to get it working, it aint going into production, its just to show that it can be done
is there a way to log a few events into the txt file the way the console logs thems
thanks

yes. Instead of writing to the console write to the file.

 Maybe half-life needs to simulate the luminous efficacy, light wavelength, and viewing angle of a Real LEDTM?
