Hi,
the WebBrowser documentation states:
The WebBrowser control is resource-intensive. Be sure to call the Dispose method when you
are finished using the control to ensure that all resources are released in a timely
fashion. You must call the Dispose method on the same thread that attached the events,
which should always be the message or user-interface (UI) thread.
So you should not create additional threads for this. Instead, create as many forms as
you want, keep them alive (e.g. by adding them to an ArrayList), and use Show()
instead of ShowDialog(). The forms will remain open until you Close() them (after
which you should remove them from the ArrayList, so they can be garbage collected).

Sorry,but I need multiple istances of my form that running of different threads.
My application should be a client-server chat. My client application has 2 threads: one to send message and the other one to receive messege. Anytime my application receive a message from a user a new form(formB) must appear if the conversation window for that determinated user is not already opened... and if I lunch the new conversation form from the same thread that execute the receive routine, the application goes into a busy state and I have to close the program. I hope you have understood me...

Sure, but you cant put a WebBrowser on those forms that are running on another thread...
|

i found a really simple solution that seems working..I've used another thread that checks the boolean value of a var.If true launch new form. When I have to launch my instances of form containing WebBrowser component I change the value of the boolean and it works... Thanx to all the people tryed helpin' me...;)

I have WinForms MDI application.
MDI child forms are created by menustrip click enent handler
AppDesktop.FormMgr.Show(new ChildForm1("param1", "param2") );
Every MDI child form "childform1" may have separate class with different name and different number of parameters.
When application in opened, last MDI child form must be opened automatically.
I think I must store last opened form name to isolated storage and call
AppDesktop.FormMgr.Show(new LastOpenedForm(lastParam1, lastParam2) );
Reflection should probably used to make this call.
Any sample code or idea to implement this ?

You don't need reflection, you just need to store the state of your form somewhere, and use that data to recreate it. It depends entirely on what the form could be, as to what yuo need to store.

Thank you.
My forms contain data bound DataGridView.
My form restores its state when is opened.
Only thing i need is to create last form at starup.
Any idea how to implement this ?

It seems likely to me that what you need to do then is store your data source, so you can rebuild the form with the same data.

I have code in Load event which restores form data, position etc. This is OK.
My question was about creating this form at application startup: How to store form name and parameters and most importan, how to use this to re-create form creation command.
I have different classes for every form so I know the form name only as string at startup.
There are hundreds of forms and it is difficult to use switch statement to invoke form my its name.
I need to create form whose name is given as string.

OK, I didn't realise you had hundreds of form types in your app, isn't that a little unusual/confusing ?
In that case, your options are a switch statement, or making sure that each form type has a constructor that will build to what you want, then you may be able to use reflection to invoke a constructor with the parameters you have stored.

Thank you for excellent question. I'm converting existing ERP application to C#. It has forms for customer, invoice, item, payment term, order, offer etc. etc. database contains 500 tables.
I think that this is very common.
I think I can add some code to form base class constructor for this which stores child form name in isolated storage.
Switch statement is too big for this and so it is ugly.
Based on your responses I think about the following approach:
1. Retrieve actual calling class name from base class constructor and store it in isolated storage (application can be run form web browser also).
2. At startup retrieve form name and create mdi child from it using reflection.
I'm new to C#. Where to find any sample code for this?

Hey,
I am looking for an already written C# class that implements a C# Async Socket.
Can anyone assist?
Thanks in advance!

Look up "Socket Class" in your help. More specifically look at the begin[name] and end[name] methods. The examples given are usually pretty good and give a good idea of how to use them. If you don't feel comfortable with that, then look up the articles on this site with the search text as "Asynchronous Sockets".
If you would like to see a class that implements a client asynchronous connection completely, I do have a complete one.

If you can, i'd like to see the example you have please.
I know all about the Socket class and I wrote a class that represent an Async Socket, but i'm having some issues with it, so i'd like to try a ready one to see if the problem is in my socket class or program as a whole.

Please send me an e-mail to which I can send the code directly.

let say i have a panel, and in that panel i loaded an image:
panel.BackgroundImage = Image.FromFile("image.gif");
Now, i what to make drag & drop with this panel and i want to obtain the name of the image. How can i solve this? When i make the drag & drop operation, can i obtain both the image, and the name of the image? how?
|

Hi,
the way I understand it is you can create any object you like, and pass it to
Control.DoDragDrop() when you start dragging, and retrieve it from DragEventArgs.Data
when you handle the drop event, so it is possible to store both a file name and a
bitmap, or anything else you choose.

i succed to drag & drop the backgroundImage of the panel to another panel, but i want to obtain the name of the image too.
I don't know what is the function which get the name of the image.
panel.BackgroundImage = Image.FromFile("pic.gif");
don't exist a function which take an image parameter and return the name and it's path?
|
|
|
|
|
No, there is no such function.
An image can exist without a file; and different files can contain the same image,
so what should such a function do in these cases ???

Hi,
I've recently discovered the new report function in Visual C#.NEt 2005. Now I want to create a form that is linked to my database. In my database I've got a table called 'products' and a table called 'categories'. Now I want that my form shows each category with all his products. For example, you've got three categories: amplifiers, speakers, cables. On the report I want to see amplifiers and then al l the products that belong to the category amplifiers then we'll see speakers and then all the products that belong to the category speakers and so on. Can someone help me with this problem? And my report must still be up-to-date, so a change in the db is an change in the report.
Thx.

in C# Windows Console Application how do i convert number String (for example: "16.3") to Float so that i can do later calculations on? whats the code ?

float f = Single.Parse("16.3", CultureInfo.InvariantCulture);

thanks for your quick efficient help

You can always use float.parse(variable)

I'd prevere double.TryParse method.
This prevents you of an exception if the sring is not a number.
All the best,
