Unless you want to write a file system extension, you can't.
The best way to do it is assign the appropraite NTFS permissions to the security tab in the folder properties.

Hi,
I've been working on a problem whereby i'm trying to write an System.Drawing.Image object to an SQL Server database and then reload them from the database back into an System.Drawing.Image object but have come up aginst many brick walls.
I want to try a fresh approach so i need ideas as to how this could be achieved. I'm asking for solutions as I've already asked alot of other people for help on my current way of doing things and they have all been puzzled by the problem.
Thanks
Dafydd

Hi Everyone,
Again I am posting my probs in this message board.
I want to make a program in which multiple "same" taskbarnotifier(Image) appears at same time looks like MSN messager. When multiple user login on MSN Messager at a same time a pop window(Image) appears right hand side(On the window Screen) "one by one".
I have already created multiple different Image.
When I use two or more different image, it pop up right hand side of window screen one by one, but not the case with same image, it only shows one.
Can you help me out.
Thanks

Hi,
I'm trying to find a way to connect my c# application to an embedded
webbrowser control in a "finished" application from another company (where I
don't have a chance to modify the source)...
Is there a possibility to connect to the webbrowser control inside this application?
(for example to get the HTML Source of the control?)?
Thanks in advance, Randy

We have a legacy data struct - in C - basically a two-dimensional set of data accessible thru a C API - much like a DataTable. We want to show this data in a DataGrid and in other related controls. We're looking for a way to write our own C# wrapper class to hold the C struct, and implement the necessary interfaces so that it can be uses with the DataGrid via binding. First of all, does this approach make sense? And if it does, what interface should we implement? I've been looking at IList, but can't quite figure out how the IList interface deals with the 2-dimensional nature of our data.
If anyone chooses to email me directly, remove the x's from the email address first (trying to foil the spambots).

I would suggest that you programatically create a DataTable object, stuff it with the data to be displayed and simply point the datagrid at it (set its datasource property). If I understand your problem correctly then I believe this is the most simple way to achieve your goal. I assume that you are wanting to display the data in a datagrid as rows and columns, 2 dimensional?
Is there any reason you can't use a Datatable object as you mentioned in your question?
|
|
|
|
|
Thanks for the quick reply.
I should have mentioned that our data can be VERY large - 100,000+ rows. Obviously we wouldn't want to copy all of that data over to a Datatable before displaying it, plus the duplication of all of that memory. That's why I thought if we could implement a set of interface methods that access the data from our own source, it might be a reasonable approach.
|
|

|

Ahh right. Well then implement an IList class just as you had planned. If we call your class Bob then use Bob's Item to store each of your structs. Thats the 2D element you were missing! Implement the IList.Add and additionally override Bobs Add mthd with one for the type of the struct. Do this with Remove and whatever else you'll need and you might want to do this with an indexer as well just to make access easy if you're using it for other things outside the grid.
hope that helps.

Thanks again, but that won't do it. The api for our data "object" uses row and column indexing to access the data using the public API - for example -
void* TABLE_GetValue(TablePtr table, int column, int row);
I guess what I'm asking is what interface and methods must be implemented so that two-dimensional data can be displayed in the datagrid?
Thanks

So the grid would look something like this right?
RowNum ColNum Data
------- ------- ----------------------
0 0 some data here
0 1 some more data
1 0 data 3 fe
1 1 yet more data
if so, I see no problem with my earlier suggestion, the objects stored in IList impl would be the
result from SomeType* TABLE_GetValue(TblPtr tbl,int col,int row) times n rows for the grid so the
list would look like:
0,0,somedata
0,1,somemoredata
etc...
Is that what we are going for?
If so then maybe some sample code from me would help!
Let me know

Wow - I really do appreciate your help here!
Ok - you seem to be saying that we have an array of row structs - and the IList can simply give access to a row struct. This is not the case (well, it actually is the case in the internal implementation of our object, but not via the external API that I am using). Via our API, the individual cell values from our table are accessed by specifying column and row to the api - one cell at a time - There is no actual row struct that is externally available - I probably missated this in a previous post. It's more of an array of arrays - that is, an array of rows. In any event, the row arrays do not hold row and column numbers as you indicate (0,0,somedate). Rather, the rows hold an array of void*, each one representing a value for a cell. For example, a 4x4 table looks like this:
row 0: ptr, ptr, ptr, ptr
row 1: ptr, ptr, ptr, ptr
row 2: ptr, ptr, ptr, ptr
row 3: ptr, ptr, ptr, ptr
where the offset into the row array is simply the column number.
So we access a cell by using TABLE_GetValue(table, col, row); There actually is no access for a row since there is no row object or struct concept externally. I guess I've taken a long time saying that this is really like a simple 2-dimensional array with an cell-level access API around it.
Even if I were to return some sort of Row representation by the Item() method, how would the DataGrid know what to do with that row - how to get the values for the individual cells in a row. Would it be expecting the row to also implement IList - so that it essentially would be getting an IList containing a set of ILists?
thanks

Okay, here is some sample code. Sorry it's not real orderly but I just don't have time to make it real nice. I think you'll get the idea though. this code will populate a datagrid with three columns times x rows (just an exmaple, you could have as many columns as you like) from a mock of
what I think your API looks like.
Here is the form

I was interested in how to accomplish this:
Say I have a textbox on form1.cs. I would like to print messages into that textbox from other class files such as work.cs
I am sure this is very simple and I am an idiot hehehehe
Can someone help me out?
|
|

|

Just make a public property in the other class for the text of the text box, and within it you will be able to get the value of it like :
class Work<br />
{<br />
TextBox t = new TextBox();<br />
public string TextT<br />
{<br />
get{return this.t.Text;}<br />
}<br />
}<br />
class form1<br />
{<br />
TextBox holder = new TextBox();<br />
holder.Text = Work.TextT;<br />
<br />
}<br />
But this must be have the same namespace or in the same directory ,or at least make a reference to the dll that contains that class Work .

Thanks for the reply!
I have attached a zip with a sample project which (I think) illustrates my problem.
If you have some time to spare, could you take a look at it?
Thanks and sorry for my pretty rookie problems...

 Hello dear all
i have very big problem
i have a exe that exe will generate from C# windows application i want to use these exe method to another project of C# windows application
when i want to use this exe method from "Add reference" then it will give on error Message that is
"Converting the type library to .NEt Assembly failed type library was export from a CLR assembly and can not be re-imported as a CLR Assembly"
but i have used this type library in VB6.0 project
so how we can use this type library in .NET project Application
Please Help ME
|
|
|
|
|
The only way to think is to make that exe dll as you will move your code to a control library project and add a reference to it from your exe and in youe exe make an instance of the class that is in the dll ,,so..
as this you can use it in any number of exe ,by just instantiating this class that you want to be in the exe ,from the dll.
|
|
|
|
|
thanks for reply
but i am not getting your point basically you wnat to say that we create exe as Dll but my question is how we can use exe as Dll please give the sussion how we can use exe as a dll in other C# project
|
|
|
|
|
You can go into the Project --> Properties of the application that you want to use as a reference and change the type to Class Library (from Windows Application). This will cause a dll to be generated from the Build process. You can then include this in your other projects......
|
|
|
|
|
yeah ,do as he said and then youe exe code will be in the dll as (for example-MyForm-) then you can create another new windows application and add your dll as a reference to it from the solution explorer and then,
in this new windows apllication do :
MyForm form1 = new MyForm();<br />
form1.Show();<br />
Application.Run(new MyForm());
and you can do this in any other windows application ,Hope this helps .

Ok.. here's my problem.. I need to send allot of data from my client to the server and viceversa..
My aproach is to use xml tags in a way that the data set can understand and load..
I worked for a while.. but whenever I get a transmision I need to save the data and load the dataset from the file..
The problem is that the datagrid closes down and I can't do anything more ...
My question :
1.Is there a way of sending files ( .xml, .rar, .exe, etc..) over the network using Sockets or TcpClients?
2. What's the best way to manage huge amounts of data ?
3. How to get the dataset not to crash ?
If the answer should contain a project it would be much aprecieted ...

Hi Lazar, when you are sending large amounts of data over a network, your best bet is to use the most compact form available, xml would be a good choice for a smaller load, but if there is truely a lot of data, then you might consider sending it in binary form and yes, you can and probably should use .NET sockets. These are pretty easy to use with a little practice but might give you a little frustration at first. Don't give up on them though because they are the very best way to move large pieces of data across the network. For #2, I would probably spool the data into and out of an xml DataTable so the grid can see them directly. Look at the DataTable object in .NET! Create one and play around with the Grid connected to it, it's pretty easy once you get the hang of it. As far as #3 is concerned, not enough detail for me to say, sorry, but I will say it is most likely not a bug in the grid as I've used it extensively for some time without problems unless I was doing something wrong.
Good luck on your project.
|
|
|
|

I know how to use the sockets and I know how to use a datagrid and datatables ... I'm going to try the binary sending .. and see what happens.. as for the datagrid the reason it's crashing is that I save the xml data into a file that I read it whith the dataset's ReadXml(..) method and it has to load the entire dataTable at once ...
My best quess for the crashing is that .. there can't be any other explanasion more plausable..
Thanks.. if you have any other suggestion fell free to send them ...
P.S : I'm using TcpClient and a network class made by me.. which has some events that tell me when I recieve a message or when I'm cur off from the server !
