how to change the shape of button in c#

18-Apr-13 11:52

May I suggest...

Pseudo-code...

static void function1 (MyObject o) {
   ...function operating on o...
}

static void function2 (MyObject o) {
   ...function doing some other operation on o, or no-op even...
}

void ProbabilityFunction () {
  loop {
    if (randomNumber < 0.7) {
      function1(o);
    } else {
      function2(o);
    }
  }
}

Take that pattern and expand it.

BTW, your mistake here is assuming this is more complicated than it is. You have a simple decision, with only two branches - that's the trivial IF situation. Always break down your problem to the simplest possible thing. I think you missed the fact that all you're doing here is a simple IF-ELSE, and there's NOTHING in the ELSE.

Are you planning to have more than two possible functions? Because then, yeah, you need something more complicated, and to be honest, I was hoping you were asking about that. There is a known pattern for that - where you have between 3 and millions of possible functions. When you only have two, it's an IF-ELSE.

Trivial in WPF. Quite a bit of work in Winforms. Which are you using?

i think is winForm,
I use the interface of vb.net

Look into learning WPF. ONce you know it, it is much easier to do things like that. WinForms is primative in comparison, and has not really changed much since VB 6.0 (dark ages).

For WinForms, you can simulate it easily by using a PictureBox and hooking the Click event.

What UI are you targetting? C# can be used for WinForms, WPF, ASP.NET, SilverLight, even Gtk.

But the picture will not be rounded,

Use a picture of a round button and a transparent background Smile | :)

What an "AquaButton", e.g. A Simple AquaButton[^]? They are rounded rectangles, but changing them into circles should not be too complicated.

Hello All,

My Problem
Currently I am working on a project(C#,WinForm), where my requirement is to collect GPS data in my application like (Latitude,Longitude,Altitude,Speed,Satellites).
For getting above GPS data, I have a Garmin USB Device. Now problem is, How I can capture the GPS Device data into my application.

What I have done
I installed Garmin USB Driver, Franson GPS Client Gate.

Question
What library I should use? Has anyone faced same problem? please share.

You should get the documetation for the device from Garmin; they are most likely to know the answer.

Use the best guess

Do you need the data "online"? If not, you could configure the device to log the data to a file on its memory card and then import that file.

Count the unique number of words inside a string builder(Not letters...Words))

my sttring bulilder string would be like this:

StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
sb.Append("hi friends hi");

i want to check the count of "hi" in the sb
so my final output would be like this.

Count is 2.

how to do that.

thank u

Probably not very efficient:

Get the string by calling ToString(). Split by space to get an arry of words. You can then use Distinct to get unique words and/or Select to get a specific word

Something like this?

StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
sb.Append("hi friends hi");

Console.WriteLine("Count is " + "".ToString().Split(new []{" "}, StringSplitOptions.RemoveEmptyEntries).
Where(w => w.Equals("hi", StringComparison.CurrentCultureIgnoreCase)).Count();

Look at http://www.dotnetperls.com/word-count[^]

public static int CountWords1(string s)
{
MatchCollection collection = Regex.Matches(s, @"[\S]+");
return collection.Count;
}

Yeah that's how I would do it, but copying your homework from Google is frowned upon. I think the OP should work to understand what the problem is, a method for solving it, and then the code for that method. Skipping to the last part won't help you pass the class.

That's why more and more companies are giving a coding-test when applying for a job. If the OP wants to cheat, he'll find that he has been cheated soon enough, owning a degree and not being able to use it Smile | :)

These days, I'm almost insulted when I haven't been asked to do a coding test. And, I did have a job recently where the interview should have clued me in to the fact they didn't know what the hell was going on... worked there for two months - everybody was real smart and legit with their skills - but I only did one productive thing the whole time. I should have known something was hinky in the interview when they did zero actual assessment of my skills.
