Integrating Flex with C#???

25-Jan-03 6:38

I suggest using a DataView as a filter - or -

From MSDN:

DataTable.NewRow Method
See Also
DataTable Class | DataTable Members | System.Data Namespace | AcceptChanges | Add | DataColumnCollection | DataColumn | DataRowCollection

Creates a new DataRow with the same schema as the table.

[Serializable]
public DataRow NewRow();

Return Value
A DataRow with the same schema as the DataTable.

Remarks
You must use the NewRow method to create new DataRow objects with the same schema as the DataTable. After creating a DataRow, you can add it to the DataRowCollection, through the DataTable object's Rows property.

- or -

Copy the value directly from the DataRow's ItemArray property.

If you give more details perhaps someone can help you, if you repost it, no one will. To be honest I dont even know WTF you are talking about , FLEX (is it some kind of aerobics exercise?) never heard of it. VB6 never touched it. Maybe post some VB6 code in the VB.NET forum. Just dont repost!!!! Mad | :mad:

I have to write a program in c#,recently. However I don't know what to write about.I think it may be about socket programing. But in fact, there are still too much we can write using sockets. Still, I want to write something new. Can you all help me, and give me some sugguestion? Think you all.

Hi all,
How do I convert the current value of a DateTimePicker control to a DataTime object?
Thanks
Donal

Re: DateTimePicker Control

25-Jan-03 4:43

From MSDN:

DateTimePicker.Value Property

See Also
DateTimePicker Class | DateTimePicker Members | System.Windows.Forms Namespace | DateTime

public DateTime Value {get; set;}

Property Value
The DateTime value assign to the control.

Remarks
If the Value property has not been changed in code or by the user, it is set to the current date and time (DateTime.Now).

Example
The following example demonstrates how use the Value property to retrieve the current date value. First, the example displays the Value property. The example then increments the Value property by one day and displays the property value again.

public MyClass()
{
   // Create a new DateTimePicker
   DateTimePicker dateTimePicker1 = new DateTimePicker();
   Controls.AddRange(new Control[] {dateTimePicker1});
   MessageBox.Show(dateTimePicker1.Value.ToString());

   dateTimePicker1.Value = DateTime.Now.AddDays(1);
   MessageBox.Show(dateTimePicker1.Value.ToString());
}

TcpListener Hangs at 4096 bytes?

Daniel Bright24-Jan-03 9:01

Daniel Bright

24-Jan-03 9:01

The BeginListener function will not receive any information from the socket
past a certain amount (apparently 4096 bytes). Information sent that is
smaller than that is received properly. If data is sent that is larger than
that, it's truncated to 4096 bytes, and then the while loop exits (which it
should never do).

<br />
private void BeginListener()<br />
{<br />
 byte[] b = new byte[10000000];<br />
 int k;<br />
 Socket s;<br />
 String strMessage = "";<br />
<br />
 TcpListener newList = new TcpListener(10000);<br />
 newList.Start();<br />
 while (true)<br />
 {<br />
  strMessage = "";<br />
<br />
  s = newList.AcceptSocket();<br />
  k = s.Receive(b);<br />
<br />
  for (int nCounter = 0; nCounter < k; nCounter++)<br />
  {<br />
   strMessage += (char)b[nCounter];<br />
  }<br />
 }<br />
 newList.Stop();<br />
}<br />

<br />
<br />
private void SendCommand(String Address,String strTempFile)<br />
{<br />
 StreamReader newReader = new StreamReader(strTempFile);<br />
 String strSendString = newReader.ReadToEnd();<br />
 newReader.Close();<br />
<br />
 newClient = new TcpClient();<br />
 NetworkStream tcpStream = null;<br />
 byte[] ba;<br />
<br />
 try<br />
 {<br />
  newClient.Connect(Address,10000);<br />
  tcpStream = newClient.GetStream();<br />
  ASCIIEncoding asem = new ASCIIEncoding();<br />
  ba = asem.GetBytes(strSendString);<br />
  tcpStream.Write(ba,0,ba.Length);<br />
 }<br />
 catch (System.Net.Sockets.SocketException)<br />
 {<br />
  //Error Handling.<br />
 }<br />
 finally<br />
 {<br />
  if (tcpStream != null) {tcpStream.Close();}<br />
  if (newClient != null) {newClient.Close();}<br />
 }<br />
}<br />

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

You should never read this much information in one read. Many servers don't even send information that fast and your socket times-out while waiting. Buffer your respones into byte[4096] (a good recommended size) and write them out to a stream (using the read byte count) as they're read-in. This is how practically every transport mechanism works.

First of all, there no such limitation in the .NET Socket implementation : the actual code beinh Receive() is in fact a direct Winsock2 recv() function call, and it passes your buffer directly, not an intermediate buffer.

I can see an error in your code : in your loop, you are Accepting a new socket instance at each iteration. Confused | :confused:

Usually, you accept a socket once, and then loop with Receive.

How do I draw on a bitmap?

MikeBeard24-Jan-03 8:48

24-Jan-03 8:48

I have a Bitmap that has loaded in a map. When I click on the map (bitmap), I want to draw a filled circle at that point. I understand how to do it with a PictureBox or something that I can get a Graphics object for/from it, but I can't for the life of me figure out how to do the same with a bitmap.

Is there a way to do this? I'm sure there is, I just haven't figured it out yet. So, if any of you could help me out by pointing me in the correct direction, code fragments, or whatever, I'd really appreciate it.

Thanks a bunch!

Mike

Graphics g = Graphics.FromImage(bmp);
g.DrawLine(...);
g.Dispose();

Heath,

Thanks for responding.

I tried that and got the following error:

An unhandled exception of type 'System.Exception' occurred in system.drawing.dll
Additional information: A Graphics object cannot be created from an image that has an indexed pixel format.

Any ideas?

Thanks again,
Mike

Heath Stewart24-Jan-03 10:11

24-Jan-03 10:11

Well, my first suggestion would be to read the docs (especially about Image and Bitmap). My second suggestion, having said that, it to save the indexed image to a MemoryStream using a different <codepixelformat< code=""> then read it back in and get the <code>Graphics object from that. There are many other ways you can do this, too.

Hi Heath!

Thanks again for replying. To start off, as if you probably couldn't tell, this is my first foray into doing much of anything with graphics. Lots of middle/backend programming with next to nothing in the UI department for the last 8 years.

That being said, what docs are you talking about? I've read the documentation that Microsoft has written on the Image and Bitmap classes but they're rather thin when you don't know much about using graphics in general. Are there other places that have better documentation? If so, please point me to them!

Also, I will look into the MemoryStream option, but I have one question: you say to save the indexed image (BTW what is that? I just thought I was loading a BMP file! There's different types of BMPs?) using a different ...?? I get the last part (at least in theory) but what different thing am I to use?

Thanks again for the advice. It really does help.

Heath Stewart24-Jan-03 11:37

24-Jan-03 11:37

Yeah, the Microsoft .NET documentation. This documentation is what I've used and don't know much about graphics either, but these is *very* basic drawing routines - not much documentation is needed.

The Bitmap</code class does not equate to a .bmp file. It adds a few methods and properties to the <code>Image class for bitmap images. All image formats (i.e., JPEG, GID, PNG, BMP, RGB, etc.) that I'm aware of are technically bitmaps - a map of bits essentially. Most formats basically have an (A)RGB value for each bit (the whole of which makes up the bitmap). Index images basically have a palette of colors that are indexed and the image contains a mapping of pixels <-> palette index. That's a very basic description of both of those things, but that covers the gist of it.

BTW, there are different kinds of .bmp files (remember, this is not exclusive to the Bitmap class). The difference is the way the bitmaps are encoded in the file. There's Windows and OS/2 encodings that I know of. This is a similar concept to video files, just like an AVI can have different encodings (MPEG4, DivX, etc.).

25-Jan-03 11:07

Thanks Heath. You've added to my knowledge base and that's great.

I did get things to work, but not in the place that I want it. Now that I know it works like you said, it's just a matter of figuring out how to do it in the OnMouseXxx functions.

Thanks for you help and input!

Mike

Heath Stewart25-Jan-03 11:12

25-Jan-03 11:12

If a method doesn't give you a Graphics object, you can always get one for a particular control by using Control.CreateGraphics(). In this case, though, you must call Graphics.Dispose() when you're done with it. In event handlers like OnPaint() that give you one, it will clean it up for you so *never* call Graphics.Dipose() at that time.

27-Jan-03 3:44

Thanks Heath!!

I hadn't gotten far enough in the documentation to figure this out. One of those cases where you have to get something done and reading documentation (or anything else other than getting the thing done) is frowned upon.

I tried it and this works beautifully! Thanks again.
