ok hehe, thanks a lot for your help.
I'm thinking I need to something to the effect of:
<br />
if(node.InnerText == ComboBox.SelectedItem)<br />
{<br />
}<br />
|
|
|
|
|

ok so I've done some thinking about this and here's what I've come up with. The XML file followed by Psuedo code followed by the code.
XML FIle:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<configuration>
<categories>
<category>Operating System</category>
<category>Productivity</category>
<category>Entertainment</category>
<category>Games</category>
<category>Misc.</category>
</categories>
<disk_numbers>
<disk>001</disk>
<disk>002</disk>
<disk>003</disk>
</disk_numbers>
</configuration>
Psuedo Code:
start in parent node "categories"
for each child node it has named "category"
check if innerText is equal to the selected item in the combo box
if it is
remove the child node
if it isn't
go to the next child node
during one pass through the child nodes this can never fail since the combo box item wouldn't be
listed if it wasn't in the file
Code:
private void mainToolbarRemoveCategoryButton_ItemClick(object sender,
DevExpress.XtraBars.ItemClickEventArgs e)
{
XmlNode parentNode = configDoc.SelectSingleNode("/configuration/categories");
if(MessageBox.Show("Are you sure?", "Katalog", MessageBoxButtons.YesNo,
MessageBoxIcon.Exclamation) == DialogResult.No)
{
return;
}
else
{
foreach(XmlNode n in parentNode)
{
if(n.InnerText.ToString() == programCategoryComboBoxEdit.SelectedItem.ToString())
{
try
{
parentNode = n.ParentNode;
parentNode.RemoveChild(n);
configDoc.Save("katalog.config");
}
catch(Exception ex)
{
MessageBox.Show(ex.ToString());
}
}
}
}
So hopefully it's obvious what I'm trying to do, I guess the foreach loop is where the issue is, is this how I would traverse each child node?
thanks!

you should use the removeChild(xmlNode) method of xmlDocument or xmlNode

Evertime i try i get this exception.
System.InvalidOperationException: There was an error reflecting type 'serialize.UserControl1'. ---> System.NotSupportedException: Cannot serialize member System.ComponentModel.Component.Site of type System.ComponentModel.ISite because it is an interface.

not everything in dot net is serializable you should be able to find info on what is and isnt on msdn

Serializing an UI control directly doesn't make sense. Better aproach is to put all your data in a simpler data structure like dataset or array.
No one ever became great by imitation.

Well i was thinking for the sake of recreating bugs that happen on other peoples computers, how cool it would be to recreate the environment as much as possible.
Also i got another weird problem. After making functions to serialize and deserialize a test class i made...I decided to make that class extend control because i figured, the error messages only told me this in an inner exception:
<codecannot serialize="" member="" system.componentmodel.component.site="" of="" type="" system.componentmodel.isite="" because="" it="" is="" an="" interface.="">
So i did this to smack the xmlignore property on their:
[XmlIgnore]<br />
public override ISite Site<br />
{<br />
get<br />
{<br />
return base.Site;<br />
}<br />
set<br />
{<br />
base.Site = value;<br />
}<br />
}
and the exception message is unchanged.

Arg! i tried overrided every public member in control and putting the [XmlIgnore] tag on them, and same error message...

I am trying to create a form that needs to do some fast rendering (simple frequent resize, move, transparency). As far as I know GDI+ is not hardware accelerated, and it is PAINFULLY slow. I gave up trying to use double buffering and other methods of "improving" performance of GDI+.
Is there a way that I can create a form using hardware accelerated GDI(no plus) and handle its events?
I have a very simple form: full screen 50% transparent main form and a panel on it that is rapidly resized and moved about using the mouse. Doesn't seem like a tough task for a modern computer, but GDI+ is simply choking on this.
Any info/help/suggestions are greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

Hardware acceleration == DirectX. GDI isn't going to do it any faster - why would it ?

I already got it to work using API calls and is A LOT faster.
Version 1.0 of GDI+ is very slow since its not hardware accelerated. GDI+ currently uses the cpu to perform its operations and no amount of double buffering techniques can stop graphics (or simple controls in my case) from severely flickering when moved about or resized.

I realise we are supposed to open and close database connections when required rather than leaving a connection open but doing so kills the performance of my app which is a high speed database analysis tool. I do a lot of ExecuteScalar and ExecuteReader statements and opening and closing the connection every time seriously impacts the performance. Is there something I am unware of to make it faster?

is it possible for me to use C# to create features similar to CAPTCHA at the "new user register" page to prevent automated registering?

What's captcha ? Is that the thing where you get some text that's hard to machine read and you need to enter it in ? Yeah, that's easy to do using C#. Just write an image generator, and a random string generator, then store the string and check if the return value is the same.

Hi,
Yes, i am refering to that. Do you have any idea where to get sample C# codes for the image generator and random string generator. My knowledge on C# is very shallow and i need to finish my project fast. thanks.

I guess the real question then is why someone with a 'shallow' knowledge of C# has a project to turn in 'fast' ??? Are you skating on the edge at work, or at school ?

If I have a form that is a set width and height, and I click on a menu item, thereby causing the form to become a different width and height, how do I cause the form to be recentered on the screen? Second, regarding mdi, how do I get other separate forms to become parented to the application's main form using the isMdiContainer = true property. That is, if I move the main form around the desktop, I would like any child forms to move within that main form's same deskspace. Any ideas?

The Form.Location property is the coordinates on the Screen where the Form is located. When the form is resized - whether a parent MDI or child MDI form - get the bounds of the parent (so for an MDI parent, this is the Screen.Bounds property) and do the simple path to adjust your form's location.
To get the current Screen on which the Form is mostly displayed (i.e., the majority is on a particular screen), use the static Screen.FromControl method.

I have a user control which handles the printing of various document types, and therefore contains its own page settings, pring preview, and print dialogs. I'd like to be able to save (preferably to an application's app.config file) the PageSettings and PrinterSettings, but PageSettings doesn't seem to be serializable.
How can I go about doing this? Do I need to manually write out the individual settings, or is there some better mechanism?
Thanks!

I would actually recommend saving page settings - perhaps even print settings - in the document itself if possible. This is actually a pretty common scenario.
For those types that aren't attributed with the SerializableAttribute, you need to implement ISerializationSurrogate to serialize and deserialize the object of a type for that surrogate (or write a generic one for all types, reflecting private and public fields yourself). The .NET Framework SDK has more details about this interface, though it's pretty straight forward to implement if you've ever implemented ISerializable.
To use the surrogate, when you create an instance of your IFormatter (like the BinaryFormatter), add an instance of your surrogate using IFormatter.SurrogateSelector.AddSurrogate to add the type (only a single type for each call, but you can use the same surrogate instance), the StreamingContext (which describes the medium to which you serialize, primarily), and the instance of your ISerializationSurrogate implementation.

Hi all,
In Windows File Explorer, when you select a file, it will shows additional info like Author and Title for .doc file, Dimension for images, length, aurthor etc for MP3s.
My question is how can I retrieve such information in C#? I am aware that AVIFileInfo gives such info for avi file and I wonder if there is a way that works on every file type?
TIA!
