I've been triying to make a csc.exe link for typing at the console "csc.exe myfile.cs..." and not the entire csc.exe path, i posted a topic days ago but recomendations didn't work. I tried to add a system variable but didn't worked too. What do you suggest?. MS .NET SDK is not installed on my system.
Thanks

You add the path to the environment using:
set path=%path%;c:\the\path\to\the\program
---
b { font-weight: normal; }

I have several self-contained C# samples, and I want to show them run to students in class. So I wrote a program, in which I opened the source file, and then ....
Microsoft.CSharp.CSharpCodeProvider cp
= new Microsoft.CSharp.CSharpCodeProvider();
System.CodeDom.Compiler.ICodeCompiler ic = cp.CreateCompiler();
System.CodeDom.Compiler.CompilerParameters cpar
= new System.CodeDom.Compiler.CompilerParameters();
cpar.ReferencedAssemblies.Add("system.dll");
string src = this.textBox1.Text;
System.CodeDom.Compiler.CompilerResults cr = ic.CompileAssemblyFromSource(cpar,src);
foreach (System.CodeDom.Compiler.CompilerError ce in cr.Errors)
MessageBox.Show(ce.ErrorText);
if (cr.Errors.Count == 0 && cr.CompiledAssembly != null)
{
Type ObjType = cr.CompiledAssembly.GetType(classname);
try
{
if (ObjType != null)
{
string[] arguments={};
myobj = Activator.CreateInstance(ObjType);
ObjType.InvokeMember("Main", BindingFlags.Public | BindingFlags.InvokeMethod | BindingFlags.Static|BindingFlags.IgnoreCase, null, null, arguments);
}
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
MessageBox.Show(ex.Message);
}
return true;
}
My problem is when I run it, I always catch the exception MissingMethodException, i.e. the method "Main" cannot be found.
In textBox2, I input "P2_1.FirstProgram", that's the class which hosted the method "Main".
I guess the "ObjType.InvokeMember" caused the problem, but MSDN did not tell me how to do clearly.
Help!!!!!

I've written a C# Jukebox app ( like, a year ago ) and the client has been very slow to test it. They are reporting a couple of problems, first that they have trouble with the coin mech stopping working, and second on some that all input is ignored. Now, these jukeboxes use custom input devices, through the parallel and joystick ports. I have used model/view/controller, and the various controller classes typically contain a timer which fires 10 times a second and checks the state of a button, if it's on, it stores the fact and then won't accept input until it's been off again, and fires an event to the model. I've discovered that these machines are left on for weeks at a time.
The problem appears most with the joystick, which is used to catch credits. Windows shows that the joystick is working ( through the control panel applet ), but the software does not accept input until it is rebooted. So I'm wondering if there's any known issue where software that runs a timer over and over can break down because the timer fails ? It seems weird to me, but it's the only explanation I can come up with.
In the meantime, I'm looking into using DirectInput for the joystick, but I'd still like to understand why the current approach is not working reliably.

Just a wild guess, maybe you need to declare the member that you access from two threads (the button state) as volatile?

Actually, it's all running on the same thread. What does volatile do for me ?

What timer call are you using?

I'm just creating a timer - do they automatically run on another thread?
private Timer timer = new Timer();
in the constructor....
timer.Interval = 100; // poll 10 times a second
timer.Tick += new EventHandler(timer_Tick);
timer.Start();

The key here is that some timers can get pre-empted or simply "stop" running depending on the class you use. The windows forms timers can be really quirky.

Cool - thanks for the info.

The timer callbacks occur on another thread, unless you're using the Windows Forms timer, in which case, the callback/event will occur on the UI thread. So you do have two threads, my guess is that you are accessing a shared variable without locking (may not be needed) and without declaring it volatile.

Which I thought I was.

OK - I'll look into that, thanks for the help.

Was the UI responsive when the timers stopped working? Maybe the message pump got blocked and the timer messages didn't get processed at all?

The UI stays responsive, and it's consistent in it's demands, it would have been using another timer to display static images, and allowing browsing of a song list that no-one could access because they coin mechanism didn't respond to having money put in it.

hi
im using MS access as my database... i've to receive data from another computer and store the data in my database... initially, both computers were using string for read and write... my computer would get the data and store them in a text file... but as the data will keep on increasing and it is a huge amount, as well as for better layout, my computer will now use database to store data instead of in a text file>notepad...
the codes used in the other computer is in string and i will NOT be changing the codes in that computer..
im not sure how a computer using string to read and write data will be able to pass data successfully to a computer using varchar for database.. i know i can use a wizard to convert data in text file to table form in database..
but what i want to do is to pass the data directly into a database from the other computer without having the user to need to use a wizard..
the user is supposed to click on a button in a form in my computer and the data will be retrieved from database for user to view/update...
my question is: how do i write/change my codes in MY computer in order for the data passed over to directly be stored in a database? (the data will not be kept in text file any more..)
thanks a lot!

Make sure your varchar is as long as the longest possible string you'd pass in. That's it.

Do you know any SQL ? What you're after is a simple INSERT.

Connect to a database with a table that has a varchar value, and do an INSERT into it. Do you intend on making this data easy to search in any way ? Will you at least put a datastamp on it ?

Well, my DLLs remain locked by my application even after I do an AppDomain.Unload(). I haven't investigated deeper but I was hoping there's someone who has ran across this before. I'm quite sure the assemblies cannot be loaded in any other appdomains, so... meh.
Since it's too late for coding here, I'll see tomorrow whether the AppDomain really unloads or if it goes funky...
|
|
|
|
|
Are you unloading an AppDomain that you created on your own? If so, are you sure you didn't access any type from any assembly in that AppDomain?

Yeah, I created it. Well, I create a few objects and use them via a proxy (AppDomain.CreateInstance()) but that shouldn't matter, right?
|
|
|
|
|
I haven't used AppDomain.CreateInstance, but MSDN has this to say
"when this method attempts to return the Assembly for the loaded assembly to the current application domain, the common language runtime will try to load the assembly into the current application domain "
That is pretty suspicious..

Aha! Yeah, I'd better investigate that. Thanks for the tip

Hello,
I have developed a .NET application for three years. This application
builds several types of objects, and serialize them with the Binary formatter.
Everything has been fine, until...
Now, I need to build another application, independant from the first
one, that needs to access some of the serialized objects built with the first application.
Apparently, even though I define my objects with the same structure (even
the same source!), the 2nd application's deserializer refuses to load the objects:
.NET is looking for the assembly of the *original* application.
Therefore I rewrote the first application, with a DLL responsible for these
objects processing, including their serialization/deserialization. I was hoping that this
DLL, if shared by the two applications, would accept in both cases to load & save these
objects (because it would be the same assembly, right?).
But this DLL, when run by the two applications (even the first one), refuses to
deserialize anything (I guess the new version of my first application has not the
same "assembly" as when it did not have the DLL...)
Is there any way to tell .NET that another application needs to access the data?
I cannot believe that the serialization/deserialization system would not allow
two independant applications to share data stored in a file...
Any help would be welcome!
