Hi!
Could it be that the image is being accessed from another thread as well?
You could try securing the painting of the image (or whatever you do with it) with a lock statement.

Passing variables from C # to a COM object written in C++

All,

I have written a COM Object in C++. I have a C# application that calls this COM object. One method in the COM object requires a variable to be modified to inform C# of an error. I create a variable of type Object in C Sharp and pass it by reference to the COM method. The com method receives this variable as a VARIANT*. In my C++ method I use variant_t to assign the integer value I want and assign it to the VARIANT* passed to the COM Method. This seems to work well in Debug mode but in Release I get the following error:

An unhandled exception of type 'System.NullReferenceException' occurred in CSharp Test Harness.exe

Additional information: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

Can anyone help unscramble what I am doing wrong or offer a suggestion as to how to code this properly.

Kind regards

Dave

Check to see if the variant_t and the integer you are using are being initialized explicitly (in the COM component). Debug mode will initialize all locals for you, release won't... If you don't have access to the COM component source, then make sure you either initialize your return value object to something, or test to see if it is null before testing the value.

Getting the memory footprint of objects - sizeOf

Hi all,

I'm writing a presentation application which uses a lot of graphics stuff. I'm very conscious of the memory management issues this throws up and would like to be able to test any object to find the current size in bytes so that I can do background loading/unloading of images. The sort of objects I need to query are: Image objects, ImageList objects, arrays.

In C++ I would call sizeOf() but I can't find an equivalent in .Net. I know a little bit about Marshal.sizeOf() but I want to be able to do this for Managed objects not Unmanaged stuff.

Surely this is a basic building block for application development. If it doesn't exist in C# then can someone explain to me why not!?

Thanks a lot guys,

Simon

You can use sizeof in C# too, but only on value types.

There is no method to get the size of objects, as that rarely makes any sense. If you for an example do like this:

string s = new string('x', 50000);<br />
string[] a = new string[10000];<br />
for (int i=0; i<10000; i++) a[i] = s;

Now you have an array of 10000 strings that each uses 100 kb. That adds up to about one gigabyte. But as all the strings reference the same memory area, it actually only uses about 140 kb.

If you want the memory size of an array you have to add the items yourself, and if there can be items referencing the same object, you have to decide how to handle that.

Even in C++, sizeof does not always tell how much memory your object uses. For example, sizeof(some_pointer) only tells the size of the pointer variable, not the size of the instance it points to.

Which line throws the exception? The exception should also give you more information that just sql exception. When you catch the exception what other information does the exception variable have?

What is the exception? What is the message of the exception? What line did it break on? (Why am I asking this? two other people have already asked and you didn't tell them)

this.SetStyle(ControlStyles.AllPaintingInWmPaint, true);

works for forms

but what about panel or other controls ?.. is there a way to stop the flickering while drawing on a paint event?

SetStyle is inherited from Control so will work with all classes derived from Control at some point, so Panel yes, other controls almost certainly yes.

I'm trying to insert a record into a sql server 2000 database using a store
procedure (vs.net is my develop tool) on the button click event but I keep
getting the following error after clicking the button:
Object must implement IConvertible.

When i try to read TemplateColumns from datagrid and to insert in sql server table, i think is the problem.
I don't have any trace.

Code:

public void inscriereemail()

string conn = ConfigurationSettings.AppSettings["conn"];
SqlConnection objConnection = new SqlConnection(conn);
SqlCommand mycmd = new SqlCommand("add_email", objConnection);

mycmd.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure;

lblint.Text = Request.QueryString["id"];

SqlParameter expeditorp=new SqlParameter ("@expeditor", SqlDbType.VarChar, 4);
expeditorp.Direction=ParameterDirection.Input;
expeditorp.Value= lbluser.Text;
mycmd.Parameters.Add(expeditorp);

SqlParameter destinatar1p=new SqlParameter ("@destinatar", SqlDbType.VarChar, 5);
destinatar1p.Direction=ParameterDirection.Input;
destinatar1p.Value = dgdest.Items[0].FindControl("lbldest"); <- Problemns
mycmd.Parameters.Add(destinatar1p);

SqlParameter destinatarp=new SqlParameter ("@destinatar_camion", SqlDbType.VarChar, 4);
destinatarp.Direction=ParameterDirection.Input;
destinatarp.Value= lblint.Text;
mycmd.Parameters.Add(destinatarp);

SqlParameter titlup=new SqlParameter ("@titlu", SqlDbType.VarChar, 25);

mycmd.Parameters.Add(mesajp);

SqlParameter cititp=new SqlParameter ("@citit", SqlDbType.VarChar, 1);
cititp.Direction=ParameterDirection.Input;
cititp.Value = "1";
mycmd.Parameters.Add(cititp);

SqlParameter trashp=new SqlParameter ("@trash", SqlDbType.VarChar, 1);
trashp.Direction=ParameterDirection.Input;
trashp.Value = "1";
mycmd.Parameters.Add(trashp);

finally

Client machine         Web Service

Webmethod 1 and Webmethod 2 are being called here.

I want to make both happened in a single transaction.i.e "1" also should rollback if "2" has failed.

I can't open a connection object in the client.Its been opened in the webservice.

 client app |    2

Here after 1 the transaction will be over in normal scenarios ,which should not happen

How do I achieve this.
