Hello!

You can use the Property "SizeMode" in the PictureBox Class.
But you have to use the "Image" Property, not the "BackgroundImage".

_picturebox.SizeMode = System.Windows.Forms.PictureBoxSizeMode.StretchImage;

Good luck!

Importing a DLL at runtime

Hi, I have the situation where I need to create a wrapper for an unmanaged dll. My only problem is that all examples are shown with the dll specified before hand. I would like to specify the dll to use at runtime. If this is possible, please let me know. My reason for this is I have about 10 dll's which are would all have the same signatures, but are designed to access differenct machines.

So basically if I am not able to pass in the dll to use when needed, I am going to be stuck having 10 different classes all to do a similar thing. Thanks

Hi, just to add a bit more to this, the following code would work fine, except that I have to mark dllLocation as const. If I change it, it does not work, and this is exactly what I need. So any help would be appreciated.

const string dllLocation = "test.dll";

[DllImportAttribute(dllLocation)]
public static extern void SetServerName (string pServerName);

Hi!

At least the name of the DLL has to be constant, if you use this approach.
If the path of the dll is unknown at compile time, then you can still change the current directory to the DLL's path at runtime and then use the DLL function, this will work.

mav

Hi, its never known at runtime what the path will be. You mentioned though 'using this approach'. Could you let me know some other approaches I could use if this one does not help me?

If everything else fails you can P/invoke LoadLibrary and then try to call the functions in the DLL somehow. I think I saw an article here somewhere doing just this, but I could be wrong.

Good luck,

I don't think it's possible to do it dynamically using .NET.

What you could do is make an unmanaged DLL that works as a stub, which is always the same. Then you link to that stub DLL from your .NET code. That DLL determines the path of the DLL to load, and uses LoadLibrary and GetProcAddress to link to it.

How to find inner length (number of cols) in a rectangular array?

signbit4-Sep-05 22:46

4-Sep-05 22:46

I have an array declared like this:

byte[,] grayPixels = new byte[rows, cols];

later in the code, (where I don't have access to rows or cols), I have to iterate through grayPixels, I am using the following code to find the number of rows

int nRows = grayPixels.Length;
// int nCols = ?

How can I find out the number of columns in the above array? Thanks in advance...

Use grayPixels.GetLength(0) to get the size of the first dimension, and grayPixels.GetLength(1) to get the size of the second dimension.

I have a Multi Line Textbox. User will input address information.I wantta set cursor to new line, when user press enter key. I try following code to achive but it always set cursor to first line. what do u offer me :S

Hi Greeky,

Well the easy way is to set the AcceptsReturn property of the textbox to true. That should let them press enter onto new lines.
If you want to do it manually, just change the code to the following (converted to c# from interesting vb hybrid)

<br />
protected void txtAddress_KeyUp(........) {<br />
  if(e.key == keys.enter)<br />
  {<br />
    txtaddress.Text += environment.newline;<br />
    txtaddress.SelectionStart = txtaddress.Text.Length-1;<br />
    txtaddress.SelectionLength = 0;<br />
  }<br />
}<br />
/* NB. This may not be quite right, as my VS is ill, so didnt test it */<br />

The two lines to note are setting SelectionStart and SelectionLength. This just says move the cursor to the last character, and make sure no text is selected.

Hope this helps

C# DLL in VC++ / MFC

If I write a DLL assembly in C# using .NET, can I use it in my VC++ / MFC projects? My question is can such C# DLL be used in C++ type projects WITHOUT first converting the DLL in a COM ?

Thanks

determining if a string contains an int

is there any way within the .net framework to determine if a string contains a numeric value?

Use Ctrl+Left/Right to switch messages, Ctrl+Up/Down to switch threads, Ctrl+Shift+Left/Right to switch pages.
