Yes, you have to 'overwrite' the old serialized object.

Search CodeProject or the web for "single instance application". There's some decent articles on CP regarding this, for example, here[^].

Hi, I have a form that launches an external shockwave flash program and need to check, first, if the flash player is installed on the PC. Any ideas?

Thanks ahead!

You check for the existence and validity of the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\ShockwaveFlash.ShockwaveFlash key and its subkeys.

Hi
In a manual from a beamer i found following command data to switch the beamer to Power On.
02H 00H 00H 00H 00H 02H
What does this line means? Are this Bios Interupts?
I try to get this Data to the Beamer using System.Io.Ports.
But i don't know how. As a string? As a Byte?

System.IO.Ports.SerialPort sPort = new SerialPort("COM1", 38400, Parity.None, 8, StopBits.One);
sPort.Open();
sPort.Write( --> What? string? byte[]? char[]? <--)
sPort.Close();

Just save the picture as an image file, then in your form, set the .Image property of a System.Windows.Forms.Button to your image.

Debug Help

gmhanna7-Dec-05 9:22

Hi,

I have a Web Based C# program that is calling a legacy .DLL file made up of approximately 250 routines to perform credit card authorizations. I'm receiving a System.NullReferenceException somewhere within in the .DLL.

Once the Web C# program calls the initial .DLL module, I lose control of the debugger until it returns. The exception handler in the Web C# program is sighting the initial module as the one that had the NullReferenceException, however I know this is not true.

How can I obtain the real routine that is having a problem? What would be even better is an approximate line number within the routine. I have the source code to the DLL and can add something in there. I just don't want to add printf routines all over it saying, I'm here, I'm leaving.

Thank you,

Glenn

When you run your app, just attach the Visual Studio debugger to the native process via Tools->Attach to Process...

Also, since you have the source, why not just create a Visual Studio solution with your legacy source as one project in the solution, and your Web C# program as another project in your source? I imagine Visual Studio can take care of the details from there.

Hi Judah,

I tried to do what you suggested, Tools->Attach to Process... Selected Internet Explorer, clicked Attach and then clicked the check box for Native. Pressed F11 to step into the call and it didn't stop at the error in the DLL.

I thought of creating another Visual Studio project for the DLL, however when I tried to compile it, it took me several hours to remove the error messages from just one of the 250 routines. The .DLL is built with Watcom's 10.6 compiler and is a standard windows DLL.

The C# routine for the web has a try and catch block. Maybe I can add one of those to the C DLL entry point and print out the information. I'll have to go digging in the garage for the Watcom Manauls.

Your thoughts?

There is no way for us to help you unless you give us some code. Did you try debugging the application using a debugger such as Visual Studio? This will tell you were the exception is occurring and why its occurring.

Well, is the picturebox the same size as the calvin image? If not, then a call to GetPixel(e.X, e.Y) may fail.

asychronicly downloading files

stassaf7-Dec-05 8:34

Hi,

I'm trying to download several files at the same time in order to increase
performance.
I've tried to define a method that downloads a file, delegate this method and
call BeginInvoke in a loop.
The problem is that every BeginInvoke returns an IAsyncResult and I don't know
how to figure out when all the calls for this methods where completed.

My Code:
public class AsyncDemo
{
// The method to be executed asynchronously.
public bool TestMethod(string fileAdd, string fileName, out int threadId)
{
threadId = AppDomain.GetCurrentThreadId();
try
{
WebClient Client = new WebClient ();
Client.DownloadFile(fileAdd, fileName);
}
catch(Exception ex)
{
return false;
}
return true;
}
}

public delegate bool AsyncDelegate(string fileAdd, string fileName, out int threadId);

static void Main(string[] args)
{
//files to download
string[] fileUrlArr = new string[2];
string[] fileNameArr = new string[2];
fileUrlArr[0] = "http://www.site1.com/xxx.xml";
fileNameArr[0] = "file1.xml";
fileUrlArr[1] = "http://www.site2.com/xxx.xml";
fileNameArr[1] = "file2.xml";
int threadId;

// Create an instance of the test class.
AsyncDemo ad = new AsyncDemo();

// Create the delegate.
AsyncDelegate dlgt = new AsyncDelegate(ad.TestMethod);
IAsyncResult ar=null;

for(int i=0; i<2; i++)
{
// Initiate the asychronous call.
ar = dlgt.BeginInvoke(fileUrlArr[i], fileNameArr[i],out threadId, null, null);
}

ar.AsyncWaitHandle.WaitOne();
}

Any help will be appreciated.
Best Regards,
Assaf
