Its working now, I had to modify my code:
Server:
<br />
...<br />
<br />
NS.Write(Packet,0,Packet.Length);<br />
NS.Flush();<br />
<br />
Thread.Sleep(5);<br />
CurrentSize += PacketSize;<br />
<br />
...<br />
Client:
<br />
...<br />
<br />
NS.Read(Packet,0,Packet.Length);<br />
NS.Flush();<br />
<br />
Thread.Sleep(5);<br />
CurrentSize += PacketSize;<br />
<br />
...<br />
How ever, maybe 5 MS wont be enough, maybe 5 MS will be more than enough...
Is there a METHOD to wait until the CLIENT receive all the packet?
like: NS.Wait();
Thank you.

When I did serial communications, the hardest part was to efficiently handle the data which is what you're against, but that was in VC++ not C# but I'll take a shot in the dark.
According to the NetworkStream documentation (which I assume you are using), there's a property called DataAvailable. Why not poll that property, when it's true, read the data?
I don't know how you make sure you transmit all the bytes efficiently, but think about this:
on a client connection:
1. server -> open file, capture file length as a 64-bit (8-byte) unsigned integer
2. server -> transmit the 8-bytes, client expects the same 8 bytes
(at this point, the client knows how many bytes it'll receive)
3. client -> simply loop until the recv'd byte count matches what it's expecting
Loop these 3 steps for each file you want to send.
The most efficient communications code I've written is code that's very flexible but powerful. This includes making sure both sides are constantly at the same step in communication. In VC++, I used the timeout features of events inside of threads.
Good luck.

Thank you my friend, I ll think about it 
I ll test this property called DataAvaible.
Bye and really thank you.

Hi,
I am planning to import dll files ( created in C# by myself ) from SQL. Is it possible at all ?
Developing for Windows C# 2005 Express (.net 2.0)
|
|
|
|
|
It could be possible...
If you store into the database the bytes that are contained by your dll, and at the querry time you create a dll file with the contents of you field into the database.
protected internal static readonly ... and I wish the list could continue ...

Hi,
How can I interact with a SysTreeView in another application? I'm writing an automation application, and I need to access and iterate over the contents of a SysTreeView that belongs to another application. I also need to emulate mouse clicks on the tree view items.
I believe I need to do it by sending window messages to the control, but how do I do that with C# and .NET?
I'm using .NET 2.0 by the way.
thanks

Use a scrollable control like a panel forexample.
set AutoScroll property of the panel to true. Add a picturebox control onto your panel and set SizeMode to AutoSize. Do NOT set Dock property of picturebox to any value. Set location of your picturebox to 0,0 which places it to the topleft corner of the parent panel. That's all.

I was browsing the internet the other day and I ended up at a website that had a keylogger as one of its products. Anyhoo it said that it could make the program virtually invisible to users.
My question is: How would I make a program disappear from the process list under task manager?
|
|
|
|
|
I do not believe that this is possible, unless the program is a dll and is injected into a currently running program or the dll is injected into the OS. Through programming you would be able to write a program to see what processes use what dlls, but the task manager does not have this capability and would inadvertenly hide the injected program from view. Hence the reason why the program is so called "'virtually' invisible to users"

How to import a value from listBox to textBox
vasildb@yahoo.com
Vasildb
|
|
|
|
|
Are you trying to take a selected item from a listbox and populate it into a textbox?
|
|
|
|
|
If that is the case then something like this is probably what you're looking for:
textBox1.Text = listBox1.Items[listBox1.SelectedIndex].ToString();
Where textBox1 and listBox1 can be substituted for the names of the respective controls in your program.
Hope this helps,
PJC

I recently developed my first full custom control. It is a is a simple tab control that mimics VS.NET 2005 look and functions. What I am trying to accomplish next is adding design time support. I have read tutorials and articles on this, but I am try to figure out how to add certain events to the control once it is added to a form. For eaxmple I want the developer to be able to switch tabs in design time. What has to be done in order to accomplish this? Thanks in advance.

You would have to implement a Control Designer. ParentControlDesigner if I am correct.
Here are basic steps:
1) Create an inherited class of a ParentControlDesigner, or the designer that is best suited for you. For the purpose of instruction the inherited Designer is called TabDesigner.
2) For the control (Tab Control in this case) you will add the Desinger attribute to the control class with reference to TabDesigner
3) In TabDesigner you will override the WndProc function so that you can get a handle on all events to the TabControl. You will add any code you will like to change tabs and handle click events by processing WM_MOUSEMOVE and WM_RBUTTONCLICK (may not be exact constant names, check with API-Viewer (google it))
4) To add any VS menu items to your control during designer-time you will override the Verb collection property. In the initialization of the TabDesigner you will create a new Verb Collection and return the new verb collection in the Verb property
4) Test your control with the new designer during Design-Time
I would go into more detail with this information and include information on VS smart tags, but that would take longer. If you have any questions just ask.

P.S. This sounds like a good article that I could write, so check within the next month at this site and I may have posted an article on this subject.

Thanks for all your information ... I am playing with this I have not found any good example code ... I will be excitinly waiting for your article!
|
|
|
|
|
Now the only problem that I see in writing this type of article is: What type of control would be both useful and simple to create that could use these design time features? I would want a control that wasn't so significant that it would take away from the overall article about the design time features. Any Suggestions?

Hello, I want to slide a panel like f.e. toolbox in Visual Studio.
It works fine...as long as there are no further controls on it,
then it gets interrupted quite often (I guess because it repaints the controls on it every time) while applying the slide effect which looks ugly...
I tried several things, but nothing worked...any ideas or
suggestions? thanks.

Create a custom panel from inherited from Panel class. In constructor after InitializeComponent() function, write:
this.SetStyle(ControlStyles.DoubleBuffer,true);
this.SetStyle(ControlStyles.AllPaintingInWmPaint,true);
this.SetStyle(ControlStyles.UserPaint,true);
and then do all the painting by overriding onpaint event of your custom control. That's all.

thank you for this advice..but this doesn't help because I move the panel by changing its location to achieve the slider effect...so DoubleBuffered doesn't help..(I also tried it already with no effect).

Have you tried handling the WM_PAINT event in the WndProc? If you try using the WndProc you will be able to choose when the control should paint and stop the event from raising when the control should not be painted.

Hi, I don't know how it did not worked because I'm also a visual component developer and have developed custom panels also which you can move by mouse, expand and collapse vertically and horizontally (with or without animation) and everything works fine. Override WndProc event of your panel where you can find an example in MSDN library under WndProc. Handle the WM_PAINT event in a switch statement which is a value of 0x000F. To prevent repaint of your panel on every pixel move, checkout the location change and make it repaint itself forexample if the change is 2 or 3 pixels...
[System.Security.Permissions.PermissionSet(System.Security.Permissions.SecurityAction.Demand, Name="FullTrust")]
protected override void WndProc(ref Message m)
{
// Listen for operating system messages.
switch (m.Msg)
{
// The WM_PAINT message occurs when the application
// becomes the active application or becomes inactive.
case 0x000F: // WM_PAINT
// What you should check...
// if new location of your panel is NOT different enough
// to repaint:
// Msg.Result = IntPtr.Zero; // prevents the repaint of your panel
// else:
// do nothing
break;
}
base.WndProc(ref m);
}
But my first reply should have helped you, if this does not help either, send me your code. I can have a look at it and may see if you do something wrong by mistake.

Please clear the comments of WM_PAINT message decleration. I have forgotten to change them because I copied the code from MSDN Library example and modified explicitly. WM_PAINT occures nearly %90 of all times, "not only" when the application becomes active or inactive. Hope everything works fine.

Thank you for your help.....
it's better now...but with controls on it (like some standard buttons) when the panel grows (I mean when it sliders to the right) it still has some problems...
here is the code:
