Perhaps even a wider scope. Given the solution you suggested, I've spent some time today reading about and trying out some "Generic" techniques. It is my intention in the coming week to revisit an old (C# 1.1) project with a view to converting it to C# 2.0 and seeing where Generics could be used instead of the non-generic methods of the older language.

Your example has not only given me an insight into Generics, but by solving a problem I was facing (no matter that it was a simple, yet seemingly common, problem) has enhanced my understanding of the language. In this respect I'm pretty sure I'm like a lot of people - reading about the solution to an abstact problem, or a problem one has no investment in does not necessarily lead to understanding. However, solve a problem that one does have an investment in and understading is almost certain to follow (except for those lazy so and so's who have no interest in learning) - and given that this single form mdi question seems to come up from time to time, I'm sure a lot of people could benefit.

I should also point out that you used a number of what I would term advanced language features in your example; for instance:

-Generic collections
-Generic methods
-Inline delegates
-Hooking into events

These may well be everyday semantics for the professional programmer, but to beginners / hobbyists (like me) they're something new - and definietely something to investigate further.

What would also be an interesting discussion in an article is why given my original question you thought of Generics as a possible solution - what in your experience lead you to that conclusion.

Me: Can you see the "up" arrow?
User:Errr...ummm....no.
Me: Can you see an arrow that points upwards?
User: Oh yes, I see it now!

hi i need an algorithm like 'Word Wrap' in notepad that place my words in some lines that fit in my border(like richtextBox), i wrote this code, but it's not work correctly :

private void ShowText()<br />
        {            <br />
            string mainText = System.IO.File.ReadAllText("test.txt");<br />
            Graphics g = this.richTextBox1.CreateGraphics();<br />
            int widthBorder = this.richTextBox1.Width;<br />
            StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();<br />
            SizeF sizeText = new SizeF();<br />
            SizeF sizeCurrentLine = new SizeF();<br />
            ArrayList allLines = new ArrayList();<br />
            string firstWordNextLine = string.Empty;<br />
<br />
            string[] textCol = mainText.Split(new char[] { ' ' });<br />
            foreach (string text in textCol)<br />
            {             <br />
                if (firstWordNextLine != string.Empty)<br />
                {<br />
                    sb.Append(firstWordNextLine);<br />
                    firstWordNextLine = string.Empty;<br />
                }<br />
                int widthText = (int)g.MeasureString(text, this.richTextBox1.Font).Width;<br />
                int widthCurrentLine = (int)g.MeasureString(sb.ToString(), this.richTextBox1.Font).Width;<br />
                int totalWidthLine = widthText + widthCurrentLine;<br />
                if (widthCurrentLine <= widthBorder && totalWidthLine <= widthBorder)<br />
                {<br />
                    if (sb.ToString() == "")<br />
                        sb.Append(text);<br />
                    else<br />
                        sb.Append(" " + text);<br />
                }<br />
                else<br />
                {<br />
                    sw.WriteLine(sb.Length.ToString());              <br />
                    allLines.Add(sb.ToString());<br />
                    firstWordNextLine = text;<br />
                    sb = new StringBuilder();<br />
                }<br />
            }<br />
<br />
            for (int i = 0; i <= allLines.Count - 1; i++)<br />
            {<br />
                this.richTextBox1.Text += allLines[i].ToString() + "\n";<br />
            }                   <br />
        }

how to solve my problem and where does my mistake in code ?
thanks

RichTextBox class has WordWrap property. Setting it to true will make it wrap the text. Why don't use it?

Hi there,

I'm trying to solve a little problem. I created a simple web service in Java that sends a file as a byte array to the client. This array is sended as a MTOM attachment. Now, I'm trying to make a C# client application like this:

using System; <br />
using System.Collections.Generic; <br />
using System.ComponentModel; <br />
using System.Data; <br />
using System.Drawing; <br />
using System.Text; <br />
using System.Windows.Forms; <br />
<br />
namespace ImgClient <br />
{ <br />
      public partial class Form1 : Form <br />
{ <br />
      public Form1() <br />
      {  <br />
           InitializeComponent(); <br />
      } <br />
<br />
       private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) <br />
       { <br />
             ImageService.ImageServiceService service = new ImageService.ImageServiceService(); <br />
             byte[] data = service.getJavaImage(); <br />
             MessageBox.Show(data.Length.ToString()); <br />
       } <br />
}  <br />
}

but when I click on the button I'll receive an InvalidOperationException with this message:

Client found response content type of 'multipart/related;type="application/xop+xml";boundary="uuid:44b8d14c-dcbb-4024-996d-078c5985a152";start-info="text/xml", but expected "text/xml"... on line :

byte[] data = service.getJavaImage(); <br />

I made also a Java client application like this and it worked. So web service realy works. I also downloaded WSE 3.0 and set messaging->client mode to "on". But it didn't help.

Has anybody ever solved a problem like this? Or could anybody help with this?
thx in advance.

Well, thx. I read it twice. The only thing I could do else was:

"Sometimes VS misbehaves and does not generate this class. I don't understand why, but the work-around is to Show-all-files in the WinForms project and expand the web service > Reference.map > Reference.cs. Edit this file and change public partial class MTOM : System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapHttpClientProtocol to public partial class MTOMWse : Microsoft.Web.Services3.WebServicesClientProtocol. Also make sure to update the constructor to match the new class name. Then it should compile fine."

Still no change. I'm still receiving the same exception. Here I'm giving a piece of web service code written in java to show how is the mtom composed.

package imageservice;

import javax.annotation.Resource;
import javax.jws.WebService;
import javax.xml.ws.BindingType;
import javax.xml.ws.WebServiceContext;
import javax.jws.WebMethod;
import java.io.FileInputStream;
import java.io.FileNotFoundException;
import java.io.File;
import java.io.IOException;
/**
*
* @author Hellburn
*/
@WebService()
@BindingType(value=javax.xml.ws.soap.SOAPBinding.SOAP11HTTP_MTOM_BINDING)
public class ImageService {
@Resource
private WebServiceContext wsContext;

/**
* Web service operation
*/
@WebMethod
public byte[] getJavaImage() {
byte[] data = null;
wsContext.getMessageContext().put(com.sun.xml.ws.developer.JAXWSProperties.MTOM_THRESHOLOD_VALUE,0);
// TODO implement operation
try{
File f = new File("c:/SomeFile.jpg");
FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream(f);
long length = f.length();
data = new byte[(int)length];
int offset = 0;
int numRead = 0;
while (offset < data.length && (numRead=fis.read(data, offset, data.length-offset)) >= 0) {
offset += numRead;
}
fis.close();
}catch(FileNotFoundException fnfe){
fnfe.printStackTrace();
}catch(IOException ioe){
ioe.printStackTrace();
}
return data;
}
}

Maybe someone will come up with something what else I should do with my C# client application to make it run. I really don't know.

Generics Problem Question

Good afternoon gentlemen,

I was hoping somebody could explain what is wrong with the following implementation of a simple Generic function

<br />
protected void SetValue<<T>>(T value, int length)<br />
{<br />
    byte[] data = BitConverter.GetBytes(value);<br />
    if (SrbData.Length < (length + data.Length))<br />
        throw new InvalidOperationException();<br />
    Array.Copy(data, 0, SrbData, length, data.Length);<br />
}<br />

ps, the <<t>> is because I could not work out how to get a single greater than to display and SrbData is a byte array

The Visual Studio error is

Error 1 The best overloaded method match for 'System.BitConverter.GetBytes(bool)' has some invalid arguments C:\Documents and Settings\Paul\My Documents\Visual Studio 2005\Projects\Comet\SrbLibrary\SrbHeader.cs 17 27 SrbLibrary

I do not have much experience with Generics so this is most likely a silly problem, but thanks for the help anyway

BitConverter.GetBytes() accepts only several types. It seams that the type that you are substituting T with cannot be expected by BitConverter.GetBytes(). Msdn has more information about this function

Thanks for the response

However this I understand, but I was hoping to overcome the need to duplicate a function for each type that I need to add to the bit array. Hence the attempt with Generics.

My understanding is that the type T will become what ever T i pass in to it!

Is the problem because the base function will only accept 9 types and generics potentially means that far more types could be passed in??

Yes, T will become the type that you pass but GetBytes can accept only 9 types. So either the type of T should be one of them or you should write a new class like that acts like bitconverter and has a function called GetBytes that accepts many types but that means quite a lot of work
