Nope, never did find a work around, ended up doing it a different way, can't remember exactly how right now.

Hello!
I´ve created an windows service with a timer-object. My application runs a method with a given interval, which builds up strings in memory and when finished with one string sends data to our database. Problem is, my application seems to be running on several threads, which messes up the string-values I hold in memory.
I run this code in the start of the method I´ve set my timerobject to perform:
Log.Write("current threadid : " + System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.ManagedThreadId.ToString());
which gives me
current threadid : 4<br />
current threadid : 7<br />
current threadid : 8<br />
current threadid : 4<br />
current threadid : 7<br />
current threadid : 8<br />
current threadid : 4<br />
current threadid : 8<br />
current threadid : 7<br />
current threadid : 8
etc.
Is this how windows services work, and can I manage this behaviour somehow?

Problem will be with timer. You should not use a timer here. Try to run your method in a thread. You can also read Luc's article Timer surprises, and how to avoid them[^].

I presume you are using System.Threading.Timer?
When this fires, it uses a thread from the thread pool to run your TimerCallback method. You can verify this using:
System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.IsThreadPoolThread
If your method takes longer to execute than the timer period, then when the timer fires again, it will run your method again ( concurrently ) on a different thread pool thread.
You have to take this into account when writing your TimerCallback method.

Hi friends,
I have a file called 'simple.txt' in the C:// drive, but I dont know the exact location in the drive, since there are many directories present. Now, I want to manipulate with the file, i.e., write, read, rename or delete it from the drive. Suppose, I want to delete it with this code: System.IO.File.Delete(@"C:/simple.txt");or run/open the file with this peice of code: System.Diagnostics.Process.Start(@"C:/simple.txt");. But this works, only if the file's location is C://simple.txt, not in the case of C://unknowndirectory/simple.txt. Please help me. And also tell me, if its possible to manipulate with a file without assigning its extension.
Your help will be greatly appreciated,
Rajdeep.NET
NOTE: I've posted the same question earlier also, but since I did not find any appropriate result, I had to post it again with better explanation.

Won't work, you'll get a FileNotFoundException since the path is incorrect.
Create a method that reads all the filenames in a folder. Next, loop all those filenames to check whether "simple.txt" is among them. If the file is a folder, then call your function recursively to check those too.
It's a slow way of finding a file, but it works
Rajdeep.NET wrote: And also tell me, if its possible to manipulate with a file without assigning its extension.
Can't be done, you'll need the extension. Otherwise you might accidentally delete "simple.jpg" or "simple.mp3" while you wanted to kill "simple.txt".
Good luck

I'm no expert either :p
Here's a small example of recursion;
void SearchRecursive(string Path)
{
foreach(string myFile in Path)
{
if (myFileName == Folder)
{
SearchRecursive(Path + myFileName)
}
}
}

But the problem is that, in this piece of code, I have to mention the file path name, although I am unknown about its location in the drive. Please provide me a better link.

Thanks a lot for your help Eddy. Actually, I was intending to create a particular malware removal toolkit. I hope google search helps..... otherwise, God will......

What if there's more than one file called simple.txt?
You can start by looking at the System.IO namespace.

So, basically, you want someone here to write the bulk of your application for you?? That's not going to happen. YOU have to write the code. We're just here to help with any specific problems you may encounter. Seeing as though you have no code to connect to a database, save information to it, or retrieve information from it, you really need to start by learning how to do database operations.

Hi all,
I have the following string “Shirt85” and I want to separate it in two different strings “Shirt” and “85” (85 can be a int) .. How can I do it?
e.g.
string1=Shirt
string2=85
I want that 85 no. from string.

Check your string characters one by one.
int resultstring; // For Numaric Value only
string resultstring1; // For String Value Only
for i =0 to len(string)
{
if isnumber(string.substring(i,1))== true
{
resultstring =convert.toint( string.substring(i,1));
}
else
{
resultstring1 = string.substring(i,1);
}
}
If you can think then I Can.

Thanx for reply but My code is in c#....
i modified code according to C#...but it gives error : The name 'len' does not exist in the current context......and for all string operations....What i have to do?m new wid this....is there any name space required to add into project.

String.Length or Microsoft.Visualbasic.len is gives the length of string.
You should have basic knowledge of Programming. Read books or search in Google for Basic Concept.
If you can think then I Can.

Or better:
{
string s = "String85";
string s1 = "";
string s2 = "";
int posn = s.IndexOfAny("0123456789".ToCharArray());
if (posn >= 0)
{
s1 = s.Substring(0,posn);
s2 = s.Substring(posn);
}
MessageBox.Show(string.Format("\"{0}\" \"{1}\"", s1, s2));
}
You could do the digit finding with a Regex, but this example is just to be obvious!
