Thank you all for you swift reply.
Very true , new would create a new instance ( hence the name ). I can understand why this could be confusing. I will try to explain as good as I can why I would want this.

I create a new array of points, which I add to a ObjectList.

private void dataGridView_CellContentClick(object sender, DataGridViewCellEventArgs e)<br />
        {<br />
foreach (DataGridViewRow SelectedRow in dataGridView.SelectedRows)<br />
{<br />
Points pt = new Points();<br />
pt.AddPoint(X,Y);<br />
RenderableObjects.Objects.Add(pt);<br />
}<br />
}

When I rerender the form, the points (X,Y) show on the screen. So everytime I click on a row in the datagridview, the method is called. However, everytime a new instance of Points() is added to the RenderableObjects list. But before adding the new X and Y point , I want the list to be cleared. This can be achieved by :

RenderableObjects.Objects.Remove(pt);

However you can't use this line in the same method, since a new reference is initiated and therefore the previous pt is not removed.

My though was ( and it was just a though ) : If I could add a variable to the new reference, I could specifically filter, something like :

private void dataGridView_CellContentClick(object sender, DataGridViewCellEventArgs e)<br />
        {<br />
int x = 1;<br />
foreach (DataGridViewRow SelectedRow in dataGridView.SelectedRows)<br />
{<br />
points pt[x] = new Points();<br />
pt[x].AddPoint(X,Y);<br />
RenderableObjects.Objects.Add(pt[x]);<br />
int y = x -1 ;<br />
RenderableObjects.Objects.Remove(pt[y]);<br />
x++;<br />
}<br />
}

For obvious reasons , this code would not run 'cause you cannot use an array (x) size on a variable declaration. Like I said, it was just a thought. I hope I was able to clearify it a bit more.

Cheers

I have a solution using a DCom component,but the component was written in VC,I also insert the source project to the solution.Someone would like to tell me how should I do to debug such program step by step?
Thanks

You didn't mention adding the project dependencies (right click main project/Add reference/ Choose VC project). You should now be able to step into unmanaged code. However, there are lots of strange behaviours (like functions which completly ignore return statements and so on) when debugging managed and unmanaged code in the same time.

Sorry,I had follow your guide,but (right click main project/Add reference/ Choose VC project) have no such chioce,there is only a list of all the current projects of the solution. And it forbid me to add the VC project.
I have to insert the VC project to the solution,compile and run it.but when the COM objects's functions were called,it step over but no step in.

Get vs Post

Hi All,
We have a web service(developed in C#) and currently we are using "GET" method for posting the data to the server.Now we want this to change and instead of using "GET" we should be able to use the "POST" method, using the following code we are using the "GET" method.
webRequest.Method = "Get"; where webRequest is System.Net.HttpWebRequest variable.
Could you please let us know if there would be changes required in the WebService to use "POST"?
Does "GET" method has a limitation in .NET for the amount of data to be sent?
Any link/article would be greatly helpful.

Somethings seem HARD to do, until we know how to do them.

Look at XsltArgumentList. Use extension objects to provide methods to calculate or retreive external data (for example from a database) - use parameters to send data you already have into the XSLT.

When should i use ?? Timer vs Thread.Sleep(int);

Hi,

When should i use ?? Timer vs Thread.Sleep(int);

could u please guide me with justification?

i believe that :
I can prefer Thread.Sleep(); if my execution has to be blocked for a specific amount time, and go for Timer if i have to execute a specific job after a period.

Is it like that???? Or
Anything else and more important is there?
please guide me..

Thanks

Hi,

it is slightly more complex:
- you can use timers to get a single activation in future, or a periodic activation;

- the timer fires its event on some thread; for a Windows.Forms.Timer that would be
the main or GUI thread; for other timers, it is a different thread (which is good since
it does not load the GUI thread, but it also makes you need Control.InvokeRequired
and Controle.Invoke() if the timer's handler needs to touch some Control).

- you can use Thread.Sleep() to put the current thread to sleep for some time, but only
if that is acceptable to the thread. It is probably OK to do it in a worker thread
or background thread, and not in the main thread (aka "GUI thread") since during the
sleep the entire GUI comes to a halt, so it would not repaint when uncovered, you would
not be able to resize it, etc etc.

So, if you have things to do on the GUi thread thar must be kept apart in time, you
have to organize that without Trhead.Sleep(); in that case a Windows.Forms.Timer is
the right choice.

Smile | :)

TreeView StateImageList StateImageIndex

Is there a max value for treeNode.StateImageIndex?

I have a stateImageList with 21 images. Any image above the 15th e.g. treeNode.StateImageIndex = 15, generates an ArgumentOutOfRangeException with message:

InvalidArgument=Value of '15' is not valid for 'StateImageIndex'

A max value isn't documented as far as I see. What am I missing?

Thanks

I see this behavior is documented for 3.0 but not in 2.0.

ArgumentOutOfRangeException - The specified index is less than -1 or greater than 14.

Fair enough.

Detecting Key Presses

Using the KeyDown event, i can see if a key has been pressed while the form is in focus, but how do i check what key was pressed?

Thanks in advance Smile | :)

In general, events provide the information you need. That is what makes them useful.

Have you noticed the two arguments your KeyDown handler is getting ?
There even is some documentation explaining KeyEventArgs if you would care to read it.
