So you're still pissing about with those videos, don't you have something constructive to do, lets see

Are you doing the read and write synchronously? Did you try using the asynchrounous BeginRead/BeginWrite methods?
|

For maximum performance I would:
- not use .NET File and Stream classes, instead use low-level Win32 file operations (CreateFile, ReadFile,...)
- if coding in .NET make sure all buffers are managed, and marshaling is not copying data, just passing pointers (use byte[] and GCHandle)
- try and get the files NOT cached (don't recall how that was done)
- use two separate disks, one for source, one for destination
- transfer a moderate amount of data at a time, try and make it an exact multiple of the cluster size (if unknown try 2*3*5*7*11* 64KB)
- make sure system activity is low (i.e. no other disk accesses)
and for file concatenation I hope each file's size is a multiple of your sector size (512B), if not can you accept padding? when unaligned with respect to sectors, I would compensate for that on the reading half of the code, i.e. as much as possible write at file address that are multiples of 512.
What are the copy numbers you are getting (MB/sec)? you should be able to achieve 30MB/sec on moderate hardware.

By passing FILE_FLAG_NO_BUFFERING to CreateFile perhaps? I never tried that, maybe it doesn't work, but it sounds like it has a chance

this is reading all text and throwing away all but the last line.
You need to read and store all lines in memory first, in the Load handler. File.ReadAllLines can be used for this.
Then set your Control's Text property to whatever you want it to show; probably do this in the tick handler.
FYI: You could do without the string array, keeping all text inside the Control, but that is much harder to do correctly.

Hi
in sql server, u can set some extra properties to any object in database (like description).
u can query for this ExtendedProperties via this command :
SELECT o.Name AS ObjectName,
o.type AS ObjectType,
s.name AS SchemaOwner,
ep.name AS PropertyName,
ep.value AS PropertyValue,
ep.major_id As ObjectID,
c.name AS ColumnName,
c.colid AS Ordinal
FROM sys.objects o INNER JOIN sys.extended_properties ep
ON o.object_id = ep.major_id
INNER JOIN sys.schemas s
ON o.schema_id = s.schema_id
LEFT JOIN syscolumns c
ON ep.minor_id = c.colid
AND ep.major_id = c.id
WHERE o.type IN ('V', 'U') and ep.name <> N'microsoft_database_tools_support'
Howeve, i'm looking for a way to retrieve this properties via this code :
this.Text = this.users.ExtendedProperties["MS_Description"].ToString();
Is there anyway to do this ?
Thanks

If you parse out the ProprtyValue field (I assume ms_description is in there) I see no reason you can't do what you want. You could create a method to support users.extendedproperties to support ["some property name"].
AFAIK there is no internal method to do this.
[edit] It would make a useful article as well [\edit]

Thanks Mycroft
i know it'll be implemented by providing a method, but i think Ado.net has easier way to do this automatically, but how to do ?

You have probably already considered this, but from some time ago, when I was playing about with some of the SQLServer samples, I remember there being an ExtendedProperties property which I think was a ExtendedPropertiesCollection. All of this was in the SqlServer.Smo namespace, if memory serves.

Here be dragons. So you want to make a use configurable form, I'm sure there are articles which will help you with this BUT be very sure you want to pursue this type of app before getting any deeper, this needs some very strong business reasons for developing such a beast and you will NEVER be satisfied with the result until you build another IDE.

Hi
Anyone knows how to create a burning text efect in GDI+ like they have in the
cooltext website ? (http://cooltext.com/[^] )
(I already know how to create animated gif, I just need the drawing algorithm for a burning text )
thanks
|
|

|

And I thought I was bored, it's a quiet Sunday evening and I'm half a bottle into the red and you want "burning text". I'd like to make some sarcastic comment about getting a life but I'm the one replying to this puerile request.

Well, sorry for bothering your highness, but I actually need this for my job.
I've got better things than this to kill time (if that was my intention).
So, keep the sarcastic patronizing to yourself or just answer the question.

It looks pretty complicated as you have to process the font drawing yourself (i.e. read the font TTF description and draw it to a series of bitmaps or memory buffers). Doing this on the fly for a website or similar would be very processor intensive.
The easier way would be to pregenerate individual .GIF files for each character and display those instead?

Hi
thanks for your kind reply.
I already know how to pre-generate the frames,
I just don't know how to create the desired 'burning' effect
around the text in each frame.
I suppose it involves some form of looping over the text with various brushes or pens.
Do you know how to draw such an effect, even in a static non-animated gif ?
it would be very helpfull/
thanks
Erez

The only thing I've been able to find is this[^], but it is Java based. Might be useful for ideas, though.

how can i get registry operations associatd to a given executable files?
in other words,
how can i get subkeys names that are created by a given process?
|
|
|
|

There are tools that watch what a process is doing and can inform you of the changes to the registry that it makes. Alternatively you can use a disassembler and look for registry strings, or calls to the Registry APIs and see what it is doing.

Change the line
List1.Items.Add(Text1.Text);
to something like
List1.Items[List1.SelectedIndex] = Text1.Text;
Maybe first check for the selected index being valid, and adding a new item in case it's invalid.
