Hello,
How can i declare a string in a loop that the name of the variable will be changed for example according the index of the loop. For example if i will do:
for(i=1;i<5;i++)
string k[i]="something";

it will make me 4 string variables:
k1,k2,k3,k4

I mean the name itself will be changed.
I can't use arrays instead.

You can't, variable names are declared at compile time.
Why you can't use an array?

because i want to use it as adding columns to a datagridview.
And i need it to be in loop because i take those variables from a regkeys i save before.
Can i save antire array as regkey , then read it from the registry and then add it as column names to the datagridview?

If what you want to do is set the name of the column, or set its headertext then you can do this in the way you first suggested.

string columnBaseName = // Your method for getting regkey goes here
for (int i = 1; i < 3; i++)
{
    DataGridViewTextboxColumn newColumn = new DataGridViewTextboxColumn();
    newColumn.Name = columnNameBase + i.ToString();
    newColumn.HeaderText = columnNameBase + i.ToString();
    // Set any other properties for the column here
    this.dataGridView1.Columns.Add(newColumn);
}

Hope this helps. Smile | :)

Or a dictionary...

Dictionary<int, string> getString;

for access using the int value, or

Dictionary<string, string> getString;

for access using a name (e.g. "myName"+i.tostring() )

there is another ways to do that for example :

System.Collections.ArrayList arr = new System.Collections.ArrayList();
           for (int i = 0; i <= 10; i++)
           {
               arr.Add(i);
           }
           Console.WriteLine(arr[3]);

If it's always the same object type that's being put in the array list and you're using 2.0 or above, then better to use a generic list List<T> where T is the type of the object i.e. List<string>.

ArrayList involves unboxing/boxing which isn't a great idea.

How to make a network connection at this case?

Hi there!

I have a client/server program that work properly at the Internet, but with computers that have valid IP. Really I want to make a connection between two computer at the Internet that haven't valid IP, like computers that connect to internet with ISPs, that have a local IP and another IP on Internet (their server IP).
Please see below picture to understand me.
See Here
In the picture, left PC (192.168.20.14) can connect to right ISP (86.110.112.34) easily, but I want to connect to right PC (200.100.114.45). To do this, I think I have to use Port Forwarding technique. Can someone help me please?

Thanks all.

That is the job of router. You must set port forwarding of your router.
For example, just set port TCP:100 to IP 192.168.20.14.

In that case, if you make a connection to 86.110.112.34:100, it will
be forwarded to 192.168.20.14.

"92.124.210.110" <- you don't mention it before.
probably you have a dynamic IP from your ISP.

Can we use pointers or similar in C# ?

I need to use some sort of pointer or other way for a variable to contain the name of another variable, it is a bit difficult to explain but the following (not correct) code will give the idea.

string varName;
string myVar;

myVar = "varName";
&myVar = "Whatever";

Now Variable varName contains "Whatever"

Any ideas or directions ?

Thanks

You're referring to unsafe code. Yes, you can. It's not recommended because of the potential for memory leaks, but it's possible. You wrap the code using pointers in an unsafe block, like so:

unsafe
{
    //Your code goes here
}

Then you have to coerce VS into compiling it. Project properties->Build->Allow unsafe code

Actually re-reading it I see I explained it wrongly.
What I need is an evaluations something like below is often used in scripting languages.

string varName;
string myVar;

myVar = "varName";
eval(myVar) = "Whatever";

Now Variable varName contains "Whatever"

Basically I have an array with 2 columns, 1st column has the variable name and the second has the value.

I do not want to have something like
for(x = 0; x < arrayRows; x++;)
{
if(array[x,0] = "myVar1") {myVar1 = array[x,1]}
if(array[x,0] = "myVar2") {myVar2 = array[x,1]}
..
..
}
I would like something like
for(x = 0; x < arrayRows; x++;)
{
eval(array[x,0]) = array[x,1]}
}

Of course eval does not exist in C#

Any ideas or directions ?

Thanks

As CG said below, you may want to use a class to store these values, using Reflection (namespace System.Reflection) to get their names and get and set their values dynamically

You need to learn some C# basics. You can do this by creating a class to store your variable. And I'm not sure you can do what you want with pointers in C#, C# pointers are pretty limited.

Outlook 2003 VSTO Addin deployment on Windows Vista - Registry and other issues - How to

Chaitanya Joshi4-Jun-09 23:28

Hello everybody,

First of all thanks a lot for all of yours' support on forums, blogs and dev networks with the help of which development becomes very easy and motivating.

I've developed an addin for Outlook 2003 using VSTO SE and VS 2005 (C#). By referring to the articles regarding deployment I was able to manage to create its MSI installer from setup and deployment project in the solution. The addin gets properly installed on other machines having Outlook 2003 and works there fine. All the security policies are granted properly as well. I am using SetSecurity project for granting trust to assemblies. For that I had referred to articles
Deploying Visual Studio 2005 Tools for Office Solutions Using Windows Installer Part 1 & 2 (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa537173(office.11).aspx) (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa537179.aspx)

Now I want to deploy the same addin for Windows Vista. I am aware of the issues faced due to UAC. The major issue is regarding admin access to installer and need of presence of registry keys in HKLM when UAC is turned off. In my installer project I can add those additional registry keys in Registry view. Now my questions are (finally ...)

1. I want to know whether it is possible to use a single installer for Windows XP and Windows Vista. If yes, how can I determine OS version in my Custom Actions or Launch Conditions?
2. If answer to previous question is positive then are there any changes required in method of granting trust to assemblies For Windows Vista? I've already stated that I'm using modified version of SetSecurity project for that.
3. How can determine in Windows Vista whether the UAC has been turned on or off? How can I set a registry launch condition for that so that I can register additional keys in HKLM hive. I'm anyways going to add keys in HKCU for both XP as well as Vista.
4. How can I add those registry keys if I find that it's Windows Vista and UAC is turned off?

I've read articles. They say all about where to change in the registry of Windows Vista, but not how to change it.

Thanks Led...

Very precious links.

But word about MSDN links... I was not investigating what registry keys were to be added but where to add them as in which section of VS Setup & Deployment Project by checking the necessary conditions.

Thanks for help though...
