The PictureBox control has a nice property SizeMode that allows you to stretch or shrink the image it displays. I need to shrink an number of images to be used within a TreeView, but I since I am not using a PictureBox, it seems I need to shrink the image first.

Can anyone suggest how I can do this in C#?

Thanks!

You'll need to create a new Bitmap that is the desired size and then draw the original image onto the new bitmap:

Bitmap smallImage = new Bitmap(desiredX, desiredY);<br />
<br />
using (Graphics g = Graphics.FromImage(smallImage))<br />
{<br />
g.DrawImage(originalImage, new Rectangle(0, 0, desiredX, desiredY), 0, 0, originalImage.Width, originalImage.Height, GraphicsUnit.Pixel);<br />
}

Data reading from ASP.NET to C#

Hi All,
I have a requirement wherein a user wil enter the data into a asp.net webpage hosted by machine A.
Machine A needs to start a C# application(as a service) when data is received and read that data using the same C#.net application, which is processed later on.

My question is, how to read the data from ASP.NET into C# application. and how to automatically start the C# application(as a service) when data is entered into asp.net webpage.

Regards,
Prax.

I doubt that this is the best solution to your problem but it is one way that you might go about it.

First, I'll go over the service. I don't know why you would be starting this service frequently. If it starts and stops a lot then it perhaps should not be a service but just a regular application. Do you have a good reason for that? If in really needs to be a service I would just have some code that checks if it is running. If not, there is a program called installutil (it is a part of the .NET framework so it should be there on the machine already. Also, to start processes lookup System.Diagnostics ). You can use that program to install it. Then, you can put this code in your installer

<br />
private void serviceInstaller1_AfterInstall(object sender, System.Configuration.Install.InstallEventArgs e)<br />
		{<br />
			ServiceController sc = new ServiceController("The name of the service");<br />
			if ( (sc.Status.Equals(ServiceControllerStatus.Stopped) ) )<br />
				sc.Start();<br />
		}<br />

That way, when you install the service it will start running.

Now, as to how no get the information to the service, that IS a bit tricky... What are you trying to get there? If you do end up using an application then you could consider passing it as a paramater? If you use a service... well, you could consider possibly using the MSMQ. Just serialise all your data and send it that way.

I hope this helps,
Please ask me if I can explain any of the stuff better!

Hi Jim..
Thanks for the response. Let me put my question in the right way. A user enters some request in to a browser. The request/data has to be transferred from the asp.net application on the server to another application on the same web server. How could I do this? How can my asp.net application communicate with another C# application. (I guess thru sockets.) How cud I open and transfer data thru sockets from asp.net application??

u'r help is greatly appreciated.

Hi,

In VS 2005, when you click the triangle of the 'Text' property of a TextBox, a multiline input box appears.
Does anybody know how to do this with a custom object which has a text property?

Hello,

I've serious problems with dataview/databindings.
Assume the following:

I've got 2 dialogs.
- The first one has a datagrid and five textboxes attached to a dataview.
- The second one is created by the first with a DataRowView-Object, and has five textboxes and
a scrollbar attached to this row.

i)
updating a textbox in my first dialog shows changes only if i activate the datagrid, and vice versa.

ii)
updating a textbox in the second dialog shows changes in first dialog only if i activate the controls, too.

iii)
if i use my scrollbars in the second dialog to change the bound values, i immediately see changes in my first dialog, but nothing happens in the second one.

iv)
if i change the textboxes in my second dialog, and then use the scrollbars, i see no changes after all...

could someone please check out the project, and write one/two sentences to my points? i'm getting mad on this.

thanks
michael

The class RandomNumberGenerator is an abstract class - that means that you cannot create instances of this class. You can only create instances of class which extends the RandomNumberGenerator class.

Then it should be no problem to use the member functions.

(if you meant something different please tell and give some more info)

Erratic datagrid behaviour?

scotlandc12-Apr-05 22:53

12-Apr-05 22:53

Hi,

I have a 12 column datagrid populated by an Oracle 8.1.7 table.

The 'grid is clickable so that more data can be viewed according to which ever row is clicked.

On any given row, if columns 0 through 9 are clicked, there is no problem. The same is true if column 11 on a row is clicked. The problem arises only if column 10 is clicked. The error message "Column does not belong to Table" is displayed.

All column names (Header Texts) are handled in a stored procedure, the custom datagrid style only handles column widths, anyone have any idea why column 10 would behave in such a way?

I need that column in the table as it stores image paths. If it is moved to a different position ie swap columns 5 and 10 around then the application crashes if "what was column 5, now column 10" is clicked. The same happens if I set the column width to 0. The column that occupies the same screen space causes a crash yet all other columns behave as expected.

Any ideas on why this is happening or possible solutions would be greatly appreciated.

I will post code samples if necessary

Thanks lots in advance

Scotty

PropertyGrid and Null Default Values

Tristan Rhodes12-Apr-05 22:48

12-Apr-05 22:48

I've got a property grid i'm using to explore object Properties, which works fine.

However, I have a bug when an enumeration option is available and there is no default value, as the moment I click on the drop down box to select the new value, it throws an "Invalid Value of 0" error.

The enumeration in question has no Zero member, so I need a way to get around this if at all possible. Maybe by catching the error I would be able to select the item, but I don't know what where to place the exception handler.

Any thoughts?

Cheers

All enums can and are initialized to 0 (and hence the value is valid allways). Just try it.

enum Foo
{
  Bar = 10
}

Foo foo = 0;

Best would be to write a proper TypeConvertor to handle the default value.
