Hi
I have a small application with a lot of object (200) can I reset them all to the original state when I start my app. with 1 command ?
I don't like to reset them all manually.
Thx

What do you mean by "reset", do you mean set them to null? Call a method on them?
If you want to perform some action on a bunch of same-typed objects, just put them all in an array or other IEnumerable list, then use a for loop or a foreach loop to perform the action. For example, here I have lots of objects that I want each set to the number 5:
object a = "hello";
object b = 1;
object c = "testing";
...
object[] myObjs = {a, b, c};
foreach(object o in myObjs)
{
o = 5;
}

Thanks for the fast responce
I just want to set my app. back to the state as it starten (when i load the program).
I can close the app en rerun it but that doesn't look good.
My app is a small program that generates a print list with a lot of variables. So when I press 'Generate or Print' it needs to reset all to the state like I just started my app.
I tried this.close() but then all is gone.
Thx

You'll have to design your app so that all state is managed by objects other than UI controls. Then you can simply say something like x = new StateObject and you'll start afresh.

Hi,
Have anyone a sample code for handle 2 usb-keyboard.
The program must to know wich keyboard is sending the key.
It is possible?
Thanks.

It's definitely not possible in the .NET framework class library. You might be able to do this using the Win32 SDK. I recommend you ask this question in the Visual C++ forum[^], as those folks will have a more thorough knowledge of the Win32 API.

Hello,
Is there a way of openning an XML file into an Excel without using the OpenXML method. It's only available for Office 2003. Thank you.

You probably aren't going to get an answer here in the C# forum, since this isn't really a C#-related question and most people here don't have intricate knowledge of the various Office APIs. You might try asking in Microsoft's Tools for Office forum[^].

hi, i am facing this trouble (pretty obvious tho')
im working with a xmldocument, the trick is this is coming with some empty attributes
i want to browse for the empty attributes and to get rid of them
this is the example of what do i receive
and under is what ive tried
it does only displays the name of the empty attribute
but do not know how to erase that from the node
SO MANY THANKS IN ADVANCE, PEOPLE !!!
===========================================================
NOW IS LIKE :
example attrib1="" attrib2="yes" attrib3="no" attrib4=""
node attribX=""
-----------------------------------------------------------
SHOULD BE LIKE :
example attrib2="yes" attrib3="no"
node
===========================================================
XmlDocument xmlDoc = new XmlDocument();
xmlDoc.Load("nuevo.xml");
XmlNodeList nodes = xmlDoc.SelectNodes("//@*");
foreach(XmlNode node in nodes)
{
if (node.Value.ToString() == "")
{
Console.WriteLine(node.Name.ToString());
}
}
Console.ReadLine();

You should check out the MSN documentation, in particular, the XmlNode.Attributes Property[^] which is a collection of the attributes associated to a particular XmlNode.

I have two projects. One is Server and the other is client. I am using udpclient sockets for network communication. To send custom objects I have to serialize and desterilize by using binary formatters and memory streams. It works great if I use a single project having two threads and communicating with each other. But my actual task is to have two separate programs running on any two machines of a network. Now both the programs have different things to do as one is a server and the other is a client. The server waits for the client to send a custom object. The client serializes a custom object into stream of bytes and sends it to the server. At server side, the server receives the incoming stream and has to desterilize it back into the actual custom object.
My custom object is completely serializable as described inn msdn. Attribute is there and ISerializable interface is implemented.
Both the projects have different names and versions as they are separate assemblies. Now for casting I have included the class of my custom object in both the projects.
But, I get an exception at deserialization time in server. The exception is;
"An unhandled exception of type
'System.Runtime.Serialization.SerializationException'
occurred in mscorlib.dll
Additional information: Cannot find the assembly
Client.exe Version=1.0.2365, Culture=neutral,
PublicKeyToken=null."
What I perceive from this exception is that after serializing, the serialized object also contains the Assembly Meta Data info in which it was created e.g. Assembly Name, Assembly Version etc. So, at server side, when the object is deserialized back to its actual state then the CLR finds out that the deserialized object does not have correct information for the current running Assembly which is Server.exe. So, then CLR thinks that this deserialized object is incompatible with the current assembly i.e server.exe and tries to find the assembly Client.exe. When it is unable to find client.exe as it is not at server side so it raises the exception.
I solution to this problem is that Client and server programs reside in the same directory, which is never going to happen in my case.
Another solution to this problem is that I make a separate .dll for all my custom objects that need to be communicated between server/client and place the same copy of that dll at both the sides. But I don’t want to follow this solution coz then I would be spending my time in just checking the consistency of dll at both sides and what if a dll at some side is mistakenly replaced by some other dll. So chances of errors are more in this solution.
So I am looking for another solution. Please help me if u have one.
Thank you.
Regards
Khalid

my guess would be that this is caused by having events in your object. If anything is hooked up to the event by the client then there would be a refernce to the app in the serialized object.
the following code worked for me a while back when i had a similar problem:
[field:NonSerialized()]
public event EventHandler thisEvent;
[field:NonSerialized()]
public event EventHandler thatEvent;
hope this helps

Well, Russ,
I dont have any events in my custom objects. They contain data members only.
Thanx for your reply.

i just reread your OP,
it sounds like you've got a copy of the class referenced, not the same class. If you put the class in a dll which you ship to the client and the server then this should work. The code will owly have matching versions if it is the same dll on both client and server

Hiya,
This sounds like the server is expecting to deserialise an object it thinks is in the assembly 'Client.exe'. (due to the containing assembly information being serialised too, and .NET considering the server object and client object to be different things). Ultimately, if your application exists in two parts and you are sharing serialised objects between the two, there needs to be some class reuse here.
It seems to me that you can either get this reuse by combining the source file in both assemblies, or build an intermediate assembly as you say.
I would argue that the latter is the correct way to go. If the objects reside in a third assembly then you can use assembly versioning to ensure that both client and server are singing from the same songsheet; you don't get this by sharing the source. By sharing the source it also means that if you change the server you would need to recompile the client. Sharing the source also creates a grubbier solution. True, if someone tampers with your dll then you're stuck - but this is the case for all assemblies. I think the consistency check you mention would in effect be done by .NET for you.
Just an opinion....
Regards,
Rob Philpott.

This is exactly the "typical" solution. BTW, take a look at what the BinaryFormatter is producing. It's slow, and it's a hog. As someone else posted to a question I was asking, a "bool" (one byte) takes 256 bytes when BinaryFormat'ted.
If you can at all avoid the BinaryFormatter, do so. It's intended for reflection deserialization, thus it retains type and version information, which is why you are getting your problem.
If you are simply serializing native types, like ints, strings, etc., I would suggest writing your own serialization. I have RawSerializer class that I've written, that will eventually become an article. If you're interested, send me an email and I'll send you the code. It also handles structs like Guid, DateTime, and your own structs, as long as the contents are native types.

i everyone,
I have a need where I have to get a reference to a control running in another application (in a different process) through its handle.
.NET has this nice method where you can get a control from its handle:
Example:
Control con = Control.FromHandle(controlHandle);
It's nice but it only works on the controls that are within your own process space. Now, I am wondering if there is a way that I can run my application in the other application's process or there is a way that I can inject my code into that process.
I would really grateful for any help that you can give me!
Cheers,
Keith

Hi:
I have an application with a GUI that drives a math simulation. The simulation would run in about 10 min during which the GUI would go white and be unresponsive.
To fix that unresponsive behavior, I put the math simulation call in a separate thread. Now the GUI is responsive, but the simulation takes 1 hour to run. I have tried fiddling with the threadpriority of both the simulation thread and the GUI thread, but have seen little change. I am about to give up on the threading since I cant afford the 1 hr sim time to get the responsive GUI.
Have any of you seen this problem, and could you suggest any way to make threads work without costing so much execution time?
Thanks, Sam

Are you continously acessing the user interface from your worker thread? If you are reading values or writing to controls in the UI from a worker thread, those calls will take longer when properly marshaled. Make sure your worker thread has a local copy of data to work with and only synchronizes with the UI thread every once in a while.
I'm just guessing here. You can get a profiler or write some logging statements to see what operations are now taking longer.

The worker thread has its local copy of the GUI fields - these are set at the initiation of the simulation. Thanks for the suggestion however.

That's a tough one. There has to be some sort of hidden synchronization cost that you are missing. As long as you are only transfering simple datatypes there shouldn't be any. One way to see if there is a lot of syncronization is to open performance monitor and see if the number of context switches goes way up when you start your thread.
Also, just to make sure, we are only talking about 1 worker thread. Running more then a few active threads at once is a really good way to slow a system down to a crawl.

This is what you do
Create a button on your form that when clicked starts a thread that runs the simulation.
And WOLA!!!!!
Please understand the pseudo code below
Button1_ClickEvent()
{
Thread t = new Thread(new ThreadStart(StartSimulation));
t.IsBackground = "true";
t.Start;
}
The thread will start and return back to your form waiting for another event
In the meantime your thread is running in the background.
Be sure to put a Thread.Sleep(1000) some where in your simulation method if your running a
continous loop. That will free up some of the hogging of the cpu processor.
Allowing other threads time to do something... this may be causing your laggggg....
This is a simple work around approach...
Ya get my drift???

Have you even tried to understand what he meant?
He said that is simulation thread is taking too long and you really suggest putting some Sleep statements into it? 
Besides that you have four errors in your few lines of sample code.

|

Yes you are right, i did not understand what he meant now i do....
please disregard my post. As i thought your form was not loading at all when you started your thread.
But my code on the other hand was really meant to be pseudo code not to be followed
by the syntax...
you get the point i was making in the code...
Smart guy!!!

I prefer using Delegate.BeginInvoke myself, since the syntax is more natural and it returns a syncronization object so you don't have to manage it yourself.
