Switch the monitor on. If it's off, it's not lookable.

Just adding to Pete's reply,

If the monitor is on, the eyes must be kept open too. Having the monitor on and the eyes closed will still make the forms not lookable! Additionally, the monitor must be installed on the correct direction (the display panel facing the user). Also, any number of reasonably large and opaque objects in between the eyes and the monitor can make the forms not lookable.

This looks like one of those 'tough' questions to me.

I don't think serv-dee likes being mocked. Big Grin | :-D

What a shame because I've got a whole lot of mocking that I have to get in before years end, and I'm behind schedule.

I think that with the little information available in the query, the answers given were pretty reasonable and logical. If we are being disliked for that, we cannot help it. Smile | :)

KeyEventArgs question: Get one of the arrow keys and space key at the same time

Hi!

In a simple game I'm creating, I need to trigger some methods when one of the arrow keys are pressed as well as the space key.

I'm using this code in the form to receive the keyboard inputs:

protected override void OnKeyDown(KeyEventArgs e)
{
            base.OnKeyDown(e);

            if (e.KeyCode == Keys.Up && e.KeyCode == Keys.Space)
                MessageBox.Show("UP & SPACE");
}

Nothing happens when I run the code. The OnKeyDown event don't seem to handle this condition at all.

How shall I solve this problem?

If you look at the documentation, (or even just try it and look at what you get) I think you will see that you get a OnKeyDown event for each key. No, not together. Seperately. One after the other.

Just how did you think e.KeyCode was going to equal two different values? Rewrite your code as

if (e.KeyCode == 1 && e.KeyCode == 2)

and you might get the point?

Really good answer, thanks Thumbs Up | :thumbsup:

Even if you didn't offer any solution Poke tongue | ;-P

I have never thought that e.KeyCode never could return two or more keyboard inputs Sniff | :^)

So far as I know, you can only use:
"Shift / Ctrl / Alt" + Key

But not Space and Up.

Yes, I know how Shift/Alt/Ctrl + key.

Back to my question, is there any solution for this at all?

Because you get a separate event for each key pressed if you want to do custom combinations you need to set your own flags for each key of interest in the key down events and clear them in the key up events.

How to check if documents on shared folders are availiable?

Hello

I have to build an application which checks if a document is still availiable on a specific path. This application is used on our intranet. Html sites are no problem but how can I check, if a file on a Share exits? e.g. \\Server01\share$\test.doc
It should be possible to differ if the share is unavailiable or if the user hasn't enough rights to access.
Are there any opensource solutions for this problem or with which method can i solve my problem?

thanks for your help!

Would System.IO.File.Exists() not do the job?

You could then catch any FileNotFound or AccessDenied exceptions?

Usage of Lambda Expression

HarishBhattbhatt24-Jun-09 23:41

24-Jun-09 23:41

I am an experienced developer in c# and working on LOB application from last 7 Years, I have some issues in understanding usage of Lambda expression in programming.

As far as i understand it is useful in case of

1) Working with LINQ (Grouping, Select,Where etc..)
2) We can pass Lambda expression to any function as argument, so it can be used in place of delegate or anonymous function or normal function.
3)We can create generic lambda function which takes any datatype variable as argument and can return any datatype
e.g.
MyFirstLambdaFunc((val1,val2) => val1+val2)
public R MyFirstLambdaFunc<R,T>(Func<T,T,R> lambdaexpression,T x,T y)
{
R Result = lambdaexpression(x, y);
return Result;
}
4)Coding can be compact

Now the question is that

1) Are there any other advantages ?
2) When we pass lambda expression as function we can pass only single line operation?
3) Can anybody have some case study or some practical example document ?

Thanks in Advance
