Take a look at the attributes in the AssemblyInfo.cs file. Most of the file properties can be set there.

Hope that helps. Smile | :)

Changing the scroll bar color

Hello, all.

I am using a non-standard color scheme for my app. My problem (well, one of them...) is that I can't seem to set the color of the scroll bar, or the scroll arrows for a TabControl. No matter what I set the BackColor for the app to be, the scroll bar and scroll arrows seem to refuse to be anything but the default color for controls in the entire system. Is there any way to override these colors without painting them myself?

Thanks! And happy holidays!

Licensing, Encryption and .NET Reflector

I am trying to create a simple encrypted licence file for my software. The software will have the decryption keys built in - just strings - but anybody can use .Net Reflector to decompile my code and look for the Key/IV strings.

I am sure I am missing something as I am new to all this encryption malarkey and would appreciate any help you can offer on how I should be doing this.

Thanks in advance

You could use Dotfuscator to make your source a bit more secured if they try to decompile it. Just a thought.

First off, consider if your software is worth somebody spending the time to decompile your code just to be able to use your application and then publishing a license generator in the web. (Take into account that the average user will not have the skill to do this)

If the answer is yes, then I wouldnt waste too much time...it'll get cracked anyways...just do a search in google for 'Keygen' and any software developer will cry himself to death. :p and I'm sure most of those apps have spend hours and money way beyond what ur will to try and stop that from happening.

Hi,

I need print a data from an big array in severals columns.
I can not find in C# a way to to "write " an array similar to
Fortran statement like:

WRITE (*;100) (a(i) , i =1,20)
100 FORMAT (1X, 'a= '; 20F10.2)

Thanks

I need write some values from an array in columns like below

for (int np=1; np < NP1 ;np++)

{
writer1.WriteLine ("{0,8},{1,8},{2,8},{3,8},{4,8},{5,8},{6,8},{7,8},
PARAM[1],PARAM[2],PARAM[3],PARAM[4],etc...
}

The problem is that the number of columns is calculated by the code
/it can varied/ . Second only a part of array should will be printed.

Can't you just nest another loop? Like:

int cols=3; //for example;
int testCount=PARAMS.length;

for (int rowIndex=0;rowIndex < Math.Ceiling (Convert.ToDouble (testCount) / Convert.ToDouble (cols));rowIndex++)
{
	for (int colIndex=0;colIndex < cols;colIndex++)
        {
		if (rowIndex * cols +colIndex < testCount)
		{
			writer1.Write(PARAMS[rowIndex * cols +colIndex].ToString () + " ");
 		}
	}
        writer1.WriteLine();
}

That should write it one row at a time:
0 1 2
3 4 5
6 etc.

Hope this helps

My problem is now much more trivial:

how I can get my output as a row?, instead for column from example as below:

int []PARAM = {1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17};
int zmax =11;

for (int z = 0; z < zmax+1 ; z++)

writer1.WriteLine(PARAM[z].ToString()+ " ");

=== output
1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9
10
11
12

Oh! That is easier. Wink | ;)

I do not know what writer1 is, since none of your previous posts contain a declaration...but in many cases there is a .Write() method as well as a .WriteLine. Is so you can do:

for (int i=0;i < PARAMS.Length; i++)
    writer1.Write(PARAMS[i].ToString() + " ");
writer1.WriteLine() //to get the line-feed

If you have no Write, just build the string up before you print it.

System.Text.StringBuilder sb = new System.Text.StringBuilder();
for (int i=0;i < PARAMS.Length; i++){
    SB.Append(PARAMS[i].ToString() );
    SB.Append(" "); 
}
writer1.WriteLine(SB.ToString())

Terminating ThreadPool Paths

I've got a small utility that occasionaly locks up in itself if a client does not respond, so I have added a time out clause by creating a side thread for it to run on, and killing the thread when the timeout condition is reached OR the thread completes.

However, creating an entirely new thread to run this on just seems daft, so i'd like to do it on a ThreadPool. Is there any way to kill a thread pulled from a thread pool after a certain amount of time?

Cheers

Cata

I solved a similar problem another way. I created a class to hold each thread's info. i.e. ThreadID,StartDateTime,InUse,Finished etc...
Then when a new thread is required I add an instance of this class to an array which is monitored from a single worker thread. In the worker thread I interate through the array of threads and kill the ones that have the Finished flag set or that have exceeded my timout based on StartDateTime, and InUse flags. That way you can handle the termination of each thread based on what type of operation it is.
Don't know if this is applicable to your solution or not, but it worked great for me.

Re: Terminating ThreadPool Paths

Tristan Rhodes28-Dec-04 13:35

My solution is very similar, but i use the ThreadState of the thread I create. THe thread is only active for at most 1200ms and on the median about 15ms, before it is terminated. Therefore, creating and disposing new threads is a waste.

I was looking for a way to use the thread pool as it would be a more appropriate solution.

Hello, please can anyone help. I need the article and source code for the C# Sorted ListView by Carlos H. Perez, as it is not at the following link anymore. I use a listview which continuously updates two of the subitems, which is causing bad flickering. I need to know how to update subitems on a listview, without redrawing the whole row.

If anyone has the sourcecode please can they send it me.

Create an event handler for the KeyDown, KeyPress or KeyDown event and evaluate the specific EventArgs object, that will be passed to the event handler.

Guinness4Strength28-Dec-04 8:12

28-Dec-04 8:12

If you are using a control (i.e. TextBox) you can use the KeyDown Event as follows:

private void ValueEdit_KeyDown(object sender, System.Windows.Forms.KeyEventArgs e)
{
	try
	{
		if(e.KeyCode == Keys.Enter)
			CloseEditBox(true);		
		else if(e.KeyCode==Keys.Escape)
			CloseEditBox(false);
	}
	catch(Exception Err)
	{
		throw new Exception("KeyDown: "+Err.Message);
	}
}

if you want to trap the keyboard events for an entire application, you can override the WndProc method and look for the WM_KEYDOWN message
