When do I need to override constructors for GetConstructor?

5-Feb-08 5:56

You need to say that it must match at the begining and end with ^ and $ and you need to allow 1 or more matches with +

^[a-zA-Z0-9]+$

I have a class class1, which has a constructor and one method:

public class1(TextReader tr)
{
  InitFromTextReader(tr);
}
protected virtual bool InitFromTextReader(TextReader tr)
{
  // init code goes here
}

It has subclass class1_1, which also has a subclass class1_1_1.
These two classes both override InitFromTextReader.

The text stream I am reading has class names embedded in it, just before the data for the object. So I read the class name, get the Type object for it and ask for the constructor that takes a TextReader as it's one and only parameter.

GetConstructor is not finding that constructor for the subclasses. I used GetConstructors, and it just does not exist.

So, all that to ask:
Even though they do not do a dang thing, do I need to write constructors

public class1_1(TextReader tr)
  : base(tr)
{
}

and

public class1_1_1(TextReader tr)
  : base(tr)
{
}

so that I can find them with GetConstructor?
It this kind of thing wot causes unrest!

Yes you would need to implement the constructors in your derived classes. The base constructor only constructs the base object. Really you don't need the InitFromTextReader because you should be able to perform the initialization in the constructors (which pass the TextReader to it's base class).

Thanks, I appreciate the quick response, but I was afraid of that.
I needed the InitFromTextReader anyway, as I do not just use it from the constructor.
So what it comes down to is you can not implicitly inherit a constructor's capabilities in c#:
To access the capability, you must override it to explicitly expose it, even if there is no other functionality added.

Hi,
I know how to resize one dimensional array,

Array.Resize(ref ArrayName, newSize)

But if my array is of 2 dimension, how can i resize to new 2 dimension ?

Is it a real two dimensional array or a jagged array?

two dimensional:

object [,] myArray = new object[X,Y];

jagged array

object [][] myArray = new object[X][];
foreach (object[] myObject in myArray)
{
    myObject = new object[Y];
}

A two dimensional array is X * Y in size if you read the length, where an jagged array is just X with a Y value of each X.

My array is real two dimensional array.

string [,] = new string[2,4];

Now, I want to resize this array to new value of string[7,9] but I dont find any way to do this.

What you may need to do, ugly as it is, is create a new one of the new size, and copy it in.

Oh, far as I'm aware that is what you HAVE to do for a multidimensional array.

Jagged array's are normally the "defacto" standard because of this...

I guess you could make something like this:

object[,] ResizeTwoDimArray(object[,] oldObject, uint x, uint y)
{
    object[,] newObject = new object[x,y];
    Array.Copy(oldObject,newObject,oldObject.Length);
    return newObject;
}

You can't resize an array in .NET. The Array.Resize method creates a new array and copies the data to it.

That is what you have to do to resize a two dimensional array too, only there is no built in method for it so you have to do it yourself.

If you frequently resize the array, you should consider using a dynamic collection instead that actually supports resizing, like an list of arrays or a list of lists.

Experience is the sum of all the mistakes you have done.

Hello, I wrote a windows service that is supposed to start an interactive GUI app. I realize a service will not readily do this so I've pieced together the code below to bypass that. However, the call to CreateProcessAsUser always returns a 1314 error: 'A required privilege is not held by the client.'

I realize from the doc's that the calling process must have SE_TCB_NAME privilege to assign new privileges to the new process and I have done that in a method further below.

So I'm not sure why this is not launching the app. To keep things simple, I'm running notepad.exe from a cmd console, I'm just running this code as its own app so there's no service on top to muddle things up. Also I'm running it locally to make things simpler, but still that error keeps popping up. Also I'm on XP.

Can anyone see what I have done wrong in my code? Thanks in advance!!

In this method as an experiment I tried setting all privileges to see if perhaps I had been missing one but generally I will be setting TCB(if that's the right one to set.)

You'll note that I'm setting the Current Process Privilage to TCB because the Doc's say that that needs to be done.

Hi
I have to read all the link lines in HTML file. If the links path is not already there, then append link. I have done like below but I could not append the link if I use my code.

StreamReader sr = File.OpenText(navigationFile);
String line = sr.ReadToEnd();
if (!(line.IndexOf(pubPath) > 1))
{
sr.Close();
using (StreamWriter sw = File.AppendText(navigationFile))
{
sw.WriteLine("
");
sw.WriteLine("");
sw.WriteLine(pubTitle);
sw.WriteLine("");
sw.Close();
}

Does any one have Idea about it.

thanks.

TJoe5-Feb-08 4:36

5-Feb-08 4:36

Are any changes being appended to the file? Are any exceptions being thrown?

From your code, you are appending pubTitle, not pubPath (which is the one you are searching for).

Also, you should probably use the String.Contains[^] method. Like so:

if (!line.Contains(pubPath)) {
    // ... other code ...
}

Hi Tom,

thank you very much for your reply. I missed the anchor tags before and after the pubtitle while uploading the post. I have looked for Contains(), I dont have Contains() for String.

Is there any other way.

TJoe5-Feb-08 4:56

5-Feb-08 4:56

Are you using .Net 1.x? Contains is supported in .NET Framework 3.5, 3.0 SP1, 3.0, 2.0 SP1, 2.0.

But you can use String.IndexOf[^], like you had before. But you should be checking for -1, because 0 and all positive integers indicates that it found the string.

if (-1 == line.IndexOf(pubPath)) {
    // ... other code ...
}

Take care,
Tom
