Is there a faster way to give a specific color in a richTextBox?
void makeThisRed(int start, int length)<br />
{<br />
richTextBox1.Select(start,length);<br />
richTextBox1.SelectionColor= Color.Red;<br />
}
|
|
|
|
|
Nope. That's the fastest way to do it...

It is too slow for large richTextBoxes.
Maybe using pointers or something else?
|

It can't be done using pointers...
All RTF formatting is done in-line with the text, kind of like HTML tags. In order for you to change a section of text to a different format, the RTF stream holding all the text and formating information must be rewritten. This means copying everything from the beginning of the RTF stream to the point where you are making your changes, appending the new formatting codes to the copy, append the segment of text you're changing, appending any closing formatting codes that are required, then, finally, appending the remaining original RTF stream.
You can't do it using pointers because you have to rewrite the entire RTF stream anyway so it's in one contiguous stream of data.
It sounds like, because of performance considerations, that an RTF box wasn't a good choice to fulfill your requirements.

I'm having a strange issue with the Connect() function on the Socket object.
I have a .Net "ActiveX" user control (not sure if you can still call it that) on a web page that connects to a remote machine (or in the case of testing, localhost). I have set permissions so I can use sockets through the web control, so it actually does connect.
When I launch the Connect() event, it instantly connects to the server, as my server's BeginAccept callback is fired. However, the client continues to "hang" or "block" for about a minute before continuing.
Additionally, I can send data from the server to the client with no problems, and once the client stops hanging, it receives the data through a NetworkStream object.
My question is this: Why is it hanging even after connecting? I have *never* had this issue before. If I use it outside of a .NET "ActiveX" user control, it works instantly and the connection does not hang. Is this an issue specific to .NET ActiveX controls? And if so, is there a workaround?
I would also like to mention that if I use BeginConnect instead of Connect and attach a callback, the callback function is not called for another minute as well, even though the connection to the server was made instantly.
I am at a loss as to what could be causing this, but clearly a timeout of 1 minute to connect is unacceptable for my application.
MSDN articles and Google have yet to yield a result. I am hoping that someone here could shed some light on this issue.
Thank you very much.

EDIT - At this time I'm contemplating switching to UDP. If anyone thinks that's a better idea, let me know. Although, I'd like to keep TCP for all it's worth :P

Hi
I have a singleton class/component created in C#. It job is to send construct mail object using the input xml and send email using SMTP. It has a public function Execute(xmlData string, out string returnStatus) which does all that.
xmlData has tags like From, TO, Subject, Body, Priority etc.
returnStatus is used to return the status to the caller (success or exception message).
My question is: if there are multiple (for example 50) calls to Execute() function to construct and send emails, then is it thread safe? If not, how can I do that?
Please advice. Thanks in advance.

Does the function use shared data? Shared data includes member variables, static members of the current and other classes etc.. If not, your function is thread safe.
Because each thread has its own stack, as long as you use only local variables and the parameters*, your function should be thread safe.
*Beware of reference parameters though, it is possible that some other thread might change the object after passing it to your function.

Senthil

Hi all,
does anybody know what the default ApartmentState of a C# application is, if you do not set the [STAthread] attribute for your main method?
I have read different statements in the Internet. Some say that the default ApartmentState for a C# application is "ApartmentState.MTA", whereas for VB.NET it's "ApartmentState.STA".
Others say that the default state is "ApartmentState.Unknown".
Well, I tried it out myself using a simple C# app, but what I found was not really good:
Almost every computer had "ApartmentState.Unknown" as default, but unfortunately some had "ApartmentState.MTA".
What influences this behavior?
The reason why I'm asking is because I have an application which uses CoInitlizeSecurity and DragAndDrop.
The app starts like this:
public static int Main(string[] args)
{
System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.ApartmentState = ApartmentState.STA;
int nHresult = CoInitializeSecurity(IntPtr.Zero, -1, IntPtr.Zero, IntPtr.Zero, RPC_C_AUTHN_LEVEL_NONE, RPC_C_IMP_LEVEL_IMPERSONATE, IntPtr.Zero, 0, IntPtr.Zero);
...
}
This almost ever works. But on some computers that have MTA as default ApartmentState, I cannot reset the CurrentThread's ApartmentState to STA, because this can be set only once. The consequence is that "Drag and Drop Registration" fails, because Drag and Drop requires STA.
When I put the [STAThread] attribute to my main method, then the CurrentThread's ApartmentState is STA on every computer, but CoInitializeSecurity returns RPC_E_TOO_LATE.
Now is there something that I can do to solve this problem?
thanks in advance for your help!

All
I have an application which loads a large amount of data into a combobox, ~1000 entries.
Before my machine got updated with .NET CLR 1.0 SP3 the dialog with the combobox was displayed an immediately ready for use. Now with SP3 the dialog is locked out for ~2 seconds.
Using Compuware Dev Partner Performance Analysis the population of the combobox is the culprit.
The code access security permissions are being invoked and taking an inordinate amount of time on the Combobox.AddRange.
By denying the various permissions the UIPermission was identified as being invoked as follows.
System.Security.Permissions.UIPermission, mscorlib, Version=1.0.3300.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089 failed.
at System.Security.SecurityRuntime.FrameDescHelper(FrameSecurityDescriptor secDesc, IPermission demand, PermissionToken permToken)
at System.Security.CodeAccessSecurityEngine.Check(PermissionToken permToken, CodeAccessPermission demand, StackCrawlMark& stackMark, Int32 checkFrames, Int32
unrestrictedOverride)
at System.Security.CodeAccessSecurityEngine.Check(CodeAccessPermission cap, StackCrawlMark& stackMark)
at System.Security.CodeAccessPermission.Demand()
at System.Windows.Forms.Control.FromHandle(IntPtr handle)
at DevExpress.XtraBars.MessageFilter.BarManagerMessageFilter.InternalPreFilterMessage(BarManager manager, Int32 Msg, IntPtr HWnd, IntPtr WParam, IntPtr
LParam)
at DevExpress.XtraBars.MessageFilter.BarManagerMessageFilter.DevExpress.Utils.Win.Hook.IHookController.InternalPreFilterMessage(Int32 Msg, IntPtr HWnd, IntPtr
WParam, IntPtr LParam)
at DevExpress.Utils.Win.Hook.HookManager.InternalPreFilterMessage(Int32 Msg, IntPtr HWnd, IntPtr WParam, IntPtr LParam)
at DevExpress.Utils.Win.Hook.HookManager.WndHook(Int32 ncode, IntPtr wParam, IntPtr lParam)
at System.Windows.Forms.SafeNativeMethods.GetWindowTextLength(IntPtr hWnd)
at System.Windows.Forms.Control.get_WindowText()
at System.Windows.Forms.ComboBox.NativeClear()
at System.Windows.Forms.ObjectCollection.ClearInternal()
at System.Windows.Forms.ObjectCollection.Clear()
However asserting the permission as follows did not resolve the issue,
[UIPermissionAttribute(SecurityAction.Assert, Unrestricted=true, Window=UIPermissionWindow.AllWindows)]
Has anyone else encountered this change in security behaviour, and know of any configuration change that can remedy the performance penalty now being incurred?

David

Hi...
I have a richtextbox whit readonly enabled, but the user must type at the keyboard anyway, but when they do, there comes a beep from the copmuter! is there a way to disable that sound? (the sound also come when you press 'Enter' in a textbox)
Thanks...

You can prevent it by deriving from the TextBox class and overriding the OnKeyPress event. E.g.
public class MyTextBox : TextBox <br />
{ <br />
protected override void OnKeyPress(KeyPressEventArgs e) <br />
{ <br />
if(e.KeyChar == (char) 13) <br />
e.Handled = true; <br />
else <br />
base.OnKeyPress (e); <br />
} <br />
}
Regards,
Polis

It look great... but... how do i use it...? :confused....
I have this..
private void richTextBoxText_KeyDown(object sender, System.Windows.Forms.KeyEventArgs e) {
e.Handled = true;
Tastatur_KeyDown(sender,e);
MarkColor((Keys)e.KeyCode,e);
}
The Tastatur_KeyDown and MarkColor is what i want to do when the user press a key!
Can you show me how to use your example on this...?
thanks!

Instead of using the standard RichTextBox, create a new class that inherits from RichTextBox:
public class MyRichTextBox : RichTextBox
{
private void richTextBoxText_KeyDown(object sender, System.Windows.Forms.KeyEventArgs e) {
e.Handled = true;
Tastatur_KeyDown(sender,e);
MarkColor((Keys)e.KeyCode,e);
}
}
Use MyRichTextBox class instead of the standard RichTextBox.

Hey!
I have done my own stream with all the owerride methods.
My stream class is working against a simple Stream. the only extra is Events when data is written to the stream.
Anyway
I want to use StreamWriter to write rows to the stream, like this:
<br />
public void WriteRow(string data)
{<br />
try<br />
{<br />
StreamWriter sw;<br />
<br />
foreach (UnitStream unit in StreamCollection)
{<br />
if (unit.getUnitStream.CanWrite)<br />
{<br />
MemoryEventStream mES = unit.getUnitStream;
sw = new StreamWriter(mES); <br />
sw.WriteLine(data);
}<br />
}<br />
}<br />
catch (Exception ex)<br />
{<br />
addError("Error in " + this.ToString() + " - WriteRow : " + ex.Message);<br />
}<br />
}<br />
There is no data added to my stream, and i have set break points on write and writebyte in my own made streams to see if its this the StreamWriter is using, but it is´t?
How do StreamWriter work and way is ther not data written to my Stream?
BestRegards
SnowJim

Hi!
By using Reflector[^] you can look at the code in the FCL.
My first guess would be that you simply didn't flush the StreamWriter, so the internal buffer hasn't been transferred to your stream.

Hello C#-experts!
I'm trying and trying and trying but it wont work. Can someone give me an example?
What I've got is:
Domainname: testdomain
Username: administrator
password: 12345
group: string[] (containing groupnames)
from msdn.microsoft.com I've found something like:
DirectoryEntry group = new DirectoryEntry("LDAP://CN="+string[i]+",DC=Fabrikam,DC=COM");<br />
foreach(object dn in group.Properties["member"] )<br />
{<br />
Console.WriteLine(dn);<br />
}
But he keeps throwing exceptions like: domain not found etc.
Please help me!

There are a number of things to consider here. First of all, what format are the group names in? The display name of the group is different from the downlevel name (sAMAccountName) is different from the directory (or common) name (cn). You want the common name for what you're doing.
If you're checking the membeship of group X, in addition to checking the "member" property, you'll also have to include all users who have their primary group set to X. These users will not show up in the "member" property, but are still considered members of the group.
Also, to reliably get the "dc=fabrikam,dc=com" part of the distinguished name, you should be doing the following:
// Assuming you're logged into the domain that these groups are in:
DirectoryEntry rootDSE = new DirectoryEntry( "LDAP://rootDSE" ) )
string namingContext = rootDSE.Properties["configurationNamingContext"];
|

Thanks for the reply Steve. Now I finally know the correct "configurationnamingcontext".
But you say: "Assuming you're logged into the domain..." How do I log-in?
Now I try:
try<br />
{<br />
DirectoryEntry rootDSE = new DirectoryEntry( "LDAP://cu4it/rootDSE" );<br />
string namingContext = rootDSE.Properties <br />
["configurationNamingContext"].Value.ToString();<br />
<br />
DirectoryEntry group = new DirectoryEntry<br />
("LDAP://"+namingContext, "administrator","**********"); <br />
<br />
foreach(object dn in group.Properties["member"] )<br />
{<br />
Console.WriteLine(dn);<br />
}<br />
}
At the foreach he throws an exception: Can't find domain.
Oh and I'm assuming that I'm working with displaynames/commonnames from the groups and sAMAccountnames from the users. Also I need to get all the users that the group contains.
(sorry for my bad english 'cause I'm from The Netherlands)

Sounds like you have a problem with DNS then. In your rootDSE binding string, try specifying the full DNS name for that server or domain. Or you can also get the "dnsHostName" property from the rootDSE and bind explicitly to that when you bind to the group.
e.g.,
string dnsName = rootDSE.Properties["dnsHostName"].Value.Tostring();
string groupPath = string.format( "LDAP://{0}/{1},{2}", dnsName, groupName, namingContext );
DirectoryEntry group = new DirectoryEntry( groupPath );
If that doesn't work, then you *definately* have a problem with DNS.

Again, Thank you so much. I've got it (almost)working !
But like you said before, I only get one name. Even though I use a foreach-statement.
Here's my code: ("cu4it" is my domain-name")
string eigenstring = "LDAP://cu4it/CN="+strGroup+",CN=Users,DC=Cu4IT,DC=tld";<br />
DirectoryEntry ent = new DirectoryEntry(eigenstring);<br />
<br />
DirectorySearcher mySearcher = new DirectorySearcher(ent);<br />
<br />
SearchResultCollection coll = mySearcher.FindAll();<br />
foreach (SearchResult rs in coll)<br />
{<br />
ResultPropertyCollection resultPropColl = rs.Properties;<br />
foreach( Object memberColl in resultPropColl["member"])<br />
{<br />
DirectoryEntry gpMemberEntry = new DirectoryEntry("LDAP://cu4it/"+ <br />
memberColl);<br />
System.DirectoryServices.PropertyCollection userProps = <br />
gpMemberEntry.Properties;<br />
object obVal = userProps["sAMAccountName"].Value;<br />
if (null != obVal)<br />
{<br />
slet.Add(obVal.ToString());<br />
}<br />
}<br />
}
What's your tip/trick to list all subscribed users to a group?

methodinfo = this.GetType().GetMethod(functionName);
objParamArr[0] = Param2;
objParamArr[1]=param2;
