Why not just design your own? VS.NET has a cool dialog editor as part of the resource editor.

Resource files need to be imbedded into your solution. That means that I can't create it without your solution files.

cant you create a solution, make a resource file, then just send the .resX, or .resource?

Nope. It's a .rc file and the documentation said that it's tied to the solution. Besides, I don't know what he would want the dialog to look like.

If you have VS.NET you can open up the search window and then search for Dialog Editor. As an alternative, you could go here:

your link did not work.
BUT i find some material in msdn but it seems related to vc++ not vc.net.
what to do?

It's OK. You can just open up your C# dll and then edit the resources. If you copy and paste that link into the web browser in VS.NET, then you can go directly to the help file that I meant.

Problem with System.runtime.remoting.channel.tcp library...

Hi all!!!

Problems....i hate programming problems....why VS .NET tells me that Tcp type namespace doesn't exist in System.Runtime.Remoting.Channels?? (i've put using System.Runtime.Remoting.Channels and System.Runtime.Remoting.Channels.Tcp and i never had good results....why?)

Have you added a reference to System.Runtime.Remoting.dll?

I assume you are trying to use a class out of the System.Runtime.Remoting.Channels.Tcp namespace (such as TcpChannel).

TraceHook or something better

Ive been all over for this one. Im trying to use TraceHook.NET from www.razersoft.net/TraceHook.htm , but there are so many limitations and it seems to have been written using beta code.

The functions its using all have this disclaimer in their help:
The IContextProperty type supports the .NET Framework infrastructure and is not intended to be used directly from your code.

So the code works fine, but all objects MUST inherit from System.ContextBoundObject -- which is an object, not an interface... so I can't put this on forms or anything else that inherits from a class.

Has anyone worked with this thing recently or been able to modify it to a more usable tool? or can someone explain how this thing even works? Ive got the jist, but im still fuzzy on how it ties together. Of course there is no documentation, so im SOL there.

and i have tried to contact the writer with no luck.

thanks

draw a single point

hi,

i've searched the graphics-class, but i didn't found how to draw a single point.

when i use g.DrawLine(pen,x,y,x+1,y); i get the two pixels connected.

when i use g.DrawLine(pen,x,y,x,y); i get nothing.

Frown | :(

any idea?

:wq

I would suggest to spit on screen so you would get points on screens Big Grin | :-D

More seriously, there is no DrawPoint method available.

MS recommends to use GDI (Marshalled) which is still available.

Or, if performance is an issue, go unmanaged, lock a ptr on a surface and start playing with it.

Now AFAIK, I would recommend a simple to use FillEllipse(x,y,1*nZoomFactor,1*nZoomFactor) where nZoomFactor=1.

And I swallow a small raisin.

Here is the code,

// -->declaration
[DllImport("gdi32.dll", CharSet=CharSet.Auto)]
static public extern int SetPixel(IntPtr hdc, int x, int y, int rgb); // 


// -->usage
// assumption : you have a HDC in hand
// cast your HDC to (IntPtr)
// cast your COLORREF to (int)
SetPixel(dc,x,y,rgb);

anyways - i still don't understand why ms doesn't include a DrawPoint(Pen,int,int) or DrawPoint(Pen,pt) function into the graphics-class.

I guess for known performance reasons MS didn't think that was a good idea to allow DrawPoint. Well to be honest, the fact that DrawLine(x,y,x,y) does not work properly is a bug.
DirectX+GDI advocates have been fighting for years to train developers to lock a ptr to an actual surface, and then poking inside, instead of doing silly SetPixel loops. For real world apps such like real-time imaging, locking surfaces is of course the recommended solution,

And I swallow a small raisin.

Rüpel27-Aug-02 3:37

hmm. might be a reason. when i think it over, i could have created a bitmap before the operation, set the pixels within the bitmap and draw the bitmap at the proper location...

i see there's a trade-off between 'amount of code' and 'drawing speed' - but in my simple case the setpixel-speed is abolutely ok. Smile | :)

Exception in NEt application on W98

EdgarBM23-Aug-02 0:57

23-Aug-02 0:57

Hi,
I've developped a little application to communicate by serial ports in .NET. It uses Kernel32 API the same way the communication was done on VC++ 6.0.
When I had finished it I copied it to a W98 computer with the .NET Framework already installed. The problem is that I get an exception just when I try to execute it and nothing works (neither the form is shown, only the error message).
I tried it on another W2k and gets an exception on "unknown module" about a "invalid URL direction".

Does anyone knows what's happening?, maybe I should make an installation project for it?

Thanks in advance,
EdgarBM
