Create an object with a string.

I am converting from PHP to C# and I might be doing this completely wrong but here goes. I am reading rows from a database with a reader. Then using a foreach command I am walking through the records creating an object and then adding the object to a List<t>. I then return the list to be used for other purposes. But since the object that I am adding to the List is sent by reference it ends up filling the list with the values of the last object added. I am looking for advice on alternate was to fill the List or alternate ways to use the objects. Please try to refrain from just telling me I am and idiot. Be assured I am already aware of this fact. Smile | :)

Thanks to anyone that can offer advice. Below is some of the code. I hope that I posted it OK.

public object find_by_sql(string sql_statement, Type object_type, database working_database)
            {
            //Using the supplied sql statement query the database and return a reader object.
            working_database.reader = (SqlDataReader)working_database.query(sql_statement);
            //Instantiate a object determined by the calling class using the argument object_type
            object defined_object = Activator.CreateInstance(object_type);
            //Tnstantiate an Array of objects to return.
            List<object> object_array = new List<object>();
            //Step through the returned data rows from the sql statement
            while (working_database.reader.Read())
                {
                Console.WriteLine("Calling Instantiation");
                object_array.Add(instantiate(working_database.reader, defined_object));
                Console.WriteLine("object test = " + defined_object.GetType().GetField("descr").GetValue(defined_object).ToString());
                Console.WriteLine("Returned from Instantiation");
                }
            return (object_array);
            }

        private static object instantiate(SqlDataReader records,object defined_object)
            {
            for (int i = 0; i < (records.FieldCount); i++)
                {
                int one = (int)records.GetInt32(0);
                string two = (string)records.GetName(i);
                var three = records[i];
                //record_values.Add(two, three);
                Console.WriteLine("{0} : {1} - {2}", one, two, three);

When you read N rows from a database and want all of it stored in some collection such as a List, you obviously need N objects to store all the data; so it takes a new or a CreateInstance or some such inside the loop, you just can't reuse a single object over and over.

Displaying XHTML elements with namespaces in .NET WebBrowser control

Orjan Westin11-May-12 5:08

Orjan Westin

11-May-12 5:08

I have an XML document that contains in one element XHTML fragments, specifically one or more p tags, which can contain further XHTML tags such as em, span etc. These are all in an "xhtml" namespace, and the XSD has imported the XHTML strict schema, so all is fine in that regard. My problem is this:

My application needs to display these XHTML paragraphs as a read-only document. My thought was to wrap these in an XHTML document with a namespace specified on the body tag, like this:

HTML

<!-- Pre-amble -->

HTML

<html>
<head>
  <meta http-equiv="content-type" 
    content="application/xhtml+xml;charset=utf-16" />
</head>
<body xmlns:xhtml="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">

HTML

<!-- Elements from XML document -->

HTML

<xhtml:p>Namespaced paragraph from XML</xhtml:p>
<xhtml:p>A partly <xhtml:em>italicised</xhtml:em> paragraph from XML</xhtml:p>

HTML

<!-- Post-amble -->

HTML

</body> 
</html>

This way, I wouldn't have to remove all namespaces from the XHTML elements when putting the document together.

When I give this generated document to the System.Windows.Forms.WebBrowser control (.NET 3.0), the two paragraphs flow together and the em is ignored (the same thing occurs in IE8). In other words, the WebBrowser doesn't unserstand the namespace, and treats xhtml:p as an unknown element and ignores it.

In Firefox, however, the two paragraphs FF they are on separate lines with normal paragraph distance, which is what I expected.

I'm curious from a purely academic point of view whether Firefox or IE8 is in the right here, but am more interested in a pragmatic solution to this problem, if one exists.

Parent child relation through the designer

Hi,

I am studying the following control :
C# Custom Control Featuring a Collapsible Panel[^]
I would like to rewrite that control for the 4.0 framework.

This control consists of a headerpanel and in that headerpanel are 2 pictureboxes. When I study the CollapsiblePanel.Designer.cs file I see that the component designer added the parent child relations through Controls.Add statements. How can I achieve this relation through use of the designer. When I drag the panel and picturebox controls on the designer surface the controls get just created an no relation gets added.

All you do is drop the child control inside the bounds of the parent control. That's it!

If you are using a custom control (i.e., a UserControl), and you've placed an instance of it on the design-surface at design-time, it will not exhibit the behavior of other native C# container controls: where drag-dropping another control ... from the ToolBox ... into the container automatically makes the dropped control a child of the container.

Look for an article here on CP by Henry Minute explaining how to enable this "swallow dropped controls and make them children of the container" for custom controls used at design-time, and look for comments by me here on CP, suggesting the possibility of a simpler solution.

best, Bill

"Humans are amphibians ... half spirit and half animal ... as spirits they belong to the eternal world, but as animals they inhabit time. This means that while their spirit can be directed to an eternal object, their bodies, passions, and imaginations are in continual change, for to be in time, means to change. Their nearest approach to constancy, therefore, is undulation: the repeated return to a level from which they repeatedly fall back, a series of troughs and peaks.” C.S. Lewis

Picturebox and Progressbar question

I have a win form that you can click a browse button - navigate to your image file - and view the image in the win form. I've been trying to associate my progress bar to the load time of the image selected with no success. Can anyone take a look at my code and see what I'm missing?

private void startButton_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) //Opens file browsing dialog
       {
               OpenFileDialog open = new OpenFileDialog();
               open.FileName = "";
               open.Filter = "Image Files(*.tif; *.jpg; *.jpeg; *.gif; *.bmp)|*.tif; *.jpg; *.jpeg; *.gif; *.bmp";
               open.InitialDirectory = @"g:\All Scanned Jobs\";
               if (open.ShowDialog() != DialogResult.Cancel)
               {
                   // display image in picture box
                   pictureBox1.Image = new Bitmap(open.FileName);
                   pictureBox1.SizeMode = PictureBoxSizeMode.Zoom;
                   pictureBox1.WaitOnLoad = false;
                   pictureBox1.LoadAsync(open.FileName);
               }
       }
       void pictureBox1_LoadProgressChanged(object sender, ProgressChangedEventArgs e) //Sets pBar value as file opens
       {
           progressBar1.Value = e.ProgressPercentage;
       }

make sure the pictureBox1_LoadProgressChanged method is associated with the pictureBox event, i tested your code here and it works without modifications, have you tried to put a breakpoint into the pictureBox1_LoadProgressChanged method?

I have this in my Form1.Designer.cs code.

//
// pictureBox1
//
this.pictureBox1.Anchor = ((System.Windows.Forms.AnchorStyles)((((System.Windows.Forms.AnchorStyles.Top | System.Windows.Forms.AnchorStyles.Bottom)
| System.Windows.Forms.AnchorStyles.Left)
| System.Windows.Forms.AnchorStyles.Right)));
this.pictureBox1.BackColor = System.Drawing.SystemColors.ButtonFace;
this.pictureBox1.BorderStyle = System.Windows.Forms.BorderStyle.FixedSingle;
this.pictureBox1.ImageLocation = "";
this.pictureBox1.Location = new System.Drawing.Point(13, 71);
this.pictureBox1.Name = "pictureBox1";
this.pictureBox1.Size = new System.Drawing.Size(1303, 701);
this.pictureBox1.TabIndex = 3;
this.pictureBox1.TabStop = false;
this.pictureBox1.LoadProgressChanged +=new System.ComponentModel.ProgressChangedEventHandler(pictureBox1_LoadProgressChanged);

Is that where it needs to be?

your code are exactly the same as mine, still, works fine, the image loads pretty fast, so the progressbar moves fast, but stops at 100% you said that a breakpoint don't helped, what was the behavior? the method isn't being called? the image isn't loading?

The break gives me this:

ImageViewer.exe!ImageViewer.Form1.pictureBox1_LoadProgressChanged(object sender, System.ComponentModel.ProgressChangedEventArgs e) Line 71 + 0x5 bytes C#

ImageViewer.exe!ImageViewer.Program.Main() Line 18 + 0x1d bytes C#

I'm using 2010 Express of visual studio would that have anything to do with it?

OK, let's break this code down line by line
1) Open the file, create a bitmap and set as the picturebox image
2) Set size mode
3) tell picturebox that future image loading will be async
4) Do async load from the file, this is now reloading

So you are loading the image twice.

I think all you need is

pictureBox1.WaitOnLoad = false;
pictureBox1.LoadAsync(open.FileName);

So how long is it taking to load the image?? The ProgressChange event if only fired every once in a while, not on every byte that's loaded. It may not even be fired at 100% either.

There's a second event that you can handle to get notified that the image is completely loaded. That's the LoadCompleted event. When this one is raised, you can set your progress bar to 100% and consider the operation done.
