I wanted to add a dockable interface to my application and I don't really like the idea of including a third-party dll in my application. So I though and I had the idea of embedding my controls in toolbars.
Can you give me an example of how to put a custom control in a toolbar. Or is this impossible? Help would be greatly appreciated.

So, I'd like this to work:
Thread t = new Thread(new ThreadStart(StartProcess));<br />
int i = 0;<br />
int numThreads = 10;<br />
while (i <= numThreads)<br />
{<br />
t.Start();<br />
i++;<br />
}<br />
But I know it doesn't  .
Can anyone tell me how to get this working?

Keep in mind you don't want to do something like this so I'm not sure what value there is in showing you.
int i = 0;<br />
int numThreads = 10;<br />
while (i <= numThreads)<br />
{<br />
Thread t = new Thread(new ThreadStart(StartProcess));<br />
t.Start();<br />
i++;<br />
}

I would like to be able to dynamically identify how many threads I want the the application to use.
The problem is that the function is blocking, so I need a new thread for each function.
|
|
|
|

Use an array containing the threads you wish to create. Also use the QueueUserWorkItem instead (from the threadpool) it is faster.
Also, test of mine of confirmed that using this scenario rarely works faster unless the threads are waiting on different resources.

Based on what? What criteria do you think you will be using to make that determination?

No, what you need is to do some reading on the subject of multi-thread application development. I don't know what current sources there are but years ago I found Advanced Windows by Richter to be a valuable resource on the subject of multi-threading

Okay, I'll go do some reading up on that. It seems like I'm not understanding what my requirements are!
Thanks.

Excellent decision, there is hope for you. Don't expect miracles though. The subject can be rather elusive. Take your time, it's worth getting it right.

Hello,
Can anybody give me link or provide sample source as how to let EMAB know about the newly added custom Exception Handler class without adding it to configuration file?
Enterprise library depends on Configuration file settings to know about any new custom Exception Handlers, which as a developer we need to configure (add using EL Configuration Console). But i don't want to do that, i just want EMAB to pickup the Class implementing IExceptionHandler from current Assembly.
Thanks

Be aware that adding to a textbox with alot of text in it is a very slow operation. You'll want to keep the buffer displayed in it very short to keep CPU usage reasonable.
Otherwise [Microsoft is] toast in the long term no matter how much money they've got. They would be already if the Linux community didn't have it's head so firmly up it's own command line buffer that it looks like taking 15 years to find the desktop.

is there a way to get it working, it aint going into production, its just to show that it can be done
is there a way to log a few events into the txt file the way the console logs thems
thanks

yes. Instead of writing to the console write to the file.

 Maybe half-life needs to simulate the luminous efficacy, light wavelength, and viewing angle of a Real LEDTM?

Bingo, yes thats it

yes of course i can
but it's more complexed then just a simple circle
i know how to change the region using GraphicPath and etc.
but juat as Brady Kelly said there are motr things to it
and i do not know how to make it 3D
(can i use the borderstyle of the usercontrol and combine it with the region?)

Hi,
I am using the following codes to update an excel spreadsheet:
The problem is that I have to do this update for hundreds of records with different Security_IDs and it takes about 2 seconds per record to update. i.e. command.ExecuteNonQuery(); takes about 2 seconds for each update.
How can I modify this code to do all these updates quickly?
string connectionString = @"Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=C:\MarketAnalytics\YieldsSpreads\YieldsSpreads.xls;Extended Properties=""Excel 8.0;HDR=YES;""";
DbProviderFactory factory = DbProviderFactories.GetFactory("System.Data.OleDb");
using (DbConnection connection = factory.CreateConnection())
{
connection.ConnectionString = connectionString;
using (DbCommand command = connection.CreateCommand())
{
command.CommandText = @"Update [Allbonds$] Set Bid_Price = '" + strBid_Price_Best_Latest + "', Ask_Price = '" + strAsk_Price_Best_Latest + "' WHERE Security_ID = " + strSecurity_ID;
command.CommandText = strSQL;
connection.Open();
command.ExecuteNonQuery();
}
}
|
|
|
|
|
to start, how about reusing one DB connection instead of creating a new one for each record, and don't forget to Close your connection, either . . .
|
|
|
|
|
This is my exact code.
can you see where to change it to the way you suggeste please?
I am looping through a datagridview control and for each record in the control I am updating the excel sheet.
try
{
//get prices for securities...
int intSecurity_IDColumn = dgvSecurityPricing.Columns["Security_ID"].Index;
int intSecurity_NameColumn = dgvSecurityPricing.Columns["Security_Name"].Index;
int intBid_Price_Best_LatestColumn = dgvSecurityPricing.Columns["Bid_Price_Best_Latest"].Index;
int intAsk_Price_Best_LatestColumn = dgvSecurityPricing.Columns["Ask_Price_Best_Latest"].Index;
string connectionString = @"Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=C:\MarketAnalytics\YieldsSpreads\YieldsSpreads.xls;Extended Properties=""Excel 8.0;HDR=YES;""";
foreach (DataGridViewRow row in dgvSecurityPricing.Rows)
{
string strSecurity_ID = row.Cells[intSecurity_IDColumn].Value.ToString();
string strSecurity_Name = row.Cells[intSecurity_NameColumn].Value.ToString();
string strBid_Price_Best_Latest = row.Cells[intBid_Price_Best_LatestColumn].Value.ToString();
string strAsk_Price_Best_Latest = row.Cells[intAsk_Price_Best_LatestColumn].Value.ToString();
DbProviderFactory factory = DbProviderFactories.GetFactory("System.Data.OleDb");
using (DbConnection connection = factory.CreateConnection())
{
connection.ConnectionString = connectionString;
using (DbCommand command = connection.CreateCommand())
{
//only send prices if there is one...
string strSQL = "";
if (strBid_Price_Best_Latest.Length > 0 && strAsk_Price_Best_Latest.Length > 0)
{
strSQL = @"Update [Allbonds$] Set Bid_Price = '" + strBid_Price_Best_Latest + "', Ask_Price = '" + strAsk_Price_Best_Latest + "' WHERE Security_ID = " + strSecurity_ID;
}
if (strBid_Price_Best_Latest.Length > 0 && strAsk_Price_Best_Latest.Length == 0)
{
strSQL = @"Update [Allbonds$] Set Bid_Price = '" + strBid_Price_Best_Latest + "', Ask_Price = 0 WHERE Security_ID = " + strSecurity_ID;
}
if (strBid_Price_Best_Latest.Length == 0 && strAsk_Price_Best_Latest.Length > 0)
{
strSQL = @"Update [Allbonds$] Set Bid_Price = 0, Ask_Price = '" + strAsk_Price_Best_Latest + "' WHERE Security_ID = " + strSecurity_ID;
}
if (strBid_Price_Best_Latest.Length == 0 && strAsk_Price_Best_Latest.Length == 0)
{
strSQL = @"Update [Allbonds$] Set Bid_Price = 0, Ask_Price = 0 WHERE Security_ID = " + strSecurity_ID;
}
//command.CommandText = @"Update [Allbonds$] Set Bid_Price = '" + strBid_Price_Best_Latest + "', Ask_Price = '" + strAsk_Price_Best_Latest + "' WHERE Security_ID = " + strSecurity_ID;
command.CommandText = strSQL;
//Console.WriteLine(strSQL);
connection.Open();
command.ExecuteNonQuery();
}
}
}
}

statement. That way you're creating a new SQL command string for each row in the datagrid and using the same DbConnection and DbCommand objects over and over again instead of destroying them after each row is updated
p.s. put < pre > tags around your code in posts to preserve the formatting, that'll make it easier on the eyes

that if block where you assign strSQL is pretty inefficient in itself. There are two basic conditions that are being tested:
1) strBid_Price_Best_Latest.Length > 0
2) strAsk_Price_Best_Latest.Length > 0
but each variable is compared with zero 4 different times using different operators. That whole block can be reduced to 3 comparisons (down from 8) with the use of else blocks:
if (strBid_Price_Best_Latest.Length > 0)
{
if (strAsk_Price_Best_Latest.Length > 0)
{
strSQL = @"Update [Allbonds$] Set Bid_Price = '" + strBid_Price_Best_Latest + "', Ask_Price = '" + strAsk_Price_Best_Latest + "' WHERE Security_ID = " + strSecurity_ID;
}
else
{
strSQL = @"Update [Allbonds$] Set Bid_Price = '" + strBid_Price_Best_Latest + "', Ask_Price = 0 WHERE Security_ID = " + strSecurity_ID;
}
}
else
{
if (strAsk_Price_Best_Latest.Length > 0)
{
strSQL = @"Update [Allbonds$] Set Bid_Price = 0, Ask_Price = '" + strAsk_Price_Best_Latest + "' WHERE Security_ID = " + strSecurity_ID;
}
else
{
strSQL = @"Update [Allbonds$] Set Bid_Price = 0, Ask_Price = 0 WHERE Security_ID = " + strSecurity_ID;
}
}
Also, if you have "System.Data.OleDb" hardcoded in your program, then why use a Factory method to get your DB connection? You could just use OleDbConnection and OleDbCommand objects instead . . .
