Maybe I am understanding the question, so I will tell you what I would do...

Is it the case that this is an existing class that is used in many different places already, so you don't want to change it to much.

If you have access to the code, you can do this...

First change the member variable to private and rename.

private DateTime dateNext;

The add an event.

public event EventHandler datenextChanged;

Then add a property with the existing name.

public DateTime datNext
{
   get{return dateNext;}
   set
   {
     if(!datNext.Equals(dateNext) && datenextChanged != null)
       datenextChanged(this, EventArgs.Empty);
   }
}

Then you just need to subscribe to this event on your object and update the label in the handler.

Maybe this will work for you if I am understanding the problem.

Thanks,
Wendell

have you tried making the data bindable and then the form's label simply binds to the instance value. When the datNext changes the label is updated for free.

Hi everyone.

I want to make an application that has one Main Window Form.
From this main form I want to open new forms. Each newly opened form is showed in Taskbar and can be individually closed. But I want main window form to be Owner of all newly opened form.

In the above case I want single instance of Main Form running as an application and if i close the main form all other opened forms should be closed.

I cannot used this.AddOwnedForms(newForm) because there are few restrictions of minimize and focusing main form.

What is best way to achieve this functionality?

Thanks.
Good Day.

Just create and show all your 'child forms' inside your main form and you should automatically get all the functionality you have asked for

I want Main Form as a separate window. Not like MDI container. Is that possible to have Main Form invoking new windows and works as parent to all new windows?

Hi,
How to skip the single line from the graph while plotting the number.
consider the numbers from 0 to 9 it will be as;( in the For Loop)
Working format:

|||||||||| ---> Graph lines
0123456789 ----> X axis numbers

I need to have the format like;

||||||||||||||||||| ---> Graph lines
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 ----> X axis numbers..

Thanks,
Subbu

0. It is considered rather bad maners to have multiple unanswered questions.
1. Have you considered using a graph library, zGraph is very good.
2. Format your code, this is a pile of pants:
|||||||||||||||||||
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9

But this is purdy:

||||||||||||||||||| 
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9

Get the input values at the time of scrolling...

Hi,

I need to plot the wave format on the usercontrol screen with the use of text file(having input values about 2gig). Horizontal Scrollbar is placed on the panel and if I move the scroll bar the panel should move for certain amount values.

Is it optimal to use the lazy loading technique here.How? Is there any other way to accomplish this task?

Consider the screen width is 300 and wave columnwidth of wave is 30 and the total numbers to plot wave is 3000.

Then 300/30 = 10 waves can be drawn.

How to set the Largechange and Smallchage in the Horizontal Scroll event?

Thanks,
Vel

I would suggest seperating out your problem.
0. File reading
What is the format of the file?
If it is a fixed length format, can you can read directly any portion of it?

1. Display scroll bar:
Set the scroll bars range to be 0-2990 - the max value is {number of items} - {items to be displayed}
Set the small change to 1, you are moving by a single frame.
Set the large change to 10, you are moving the entire page width.

Text File format and it's not fixed length I read from text file and have the values in an ArrayList and I loop through it.

How to set the scroll bar range? Any property need to change?

Getting the 10 values from above arraylist and planning to plot the value as a wave during Horizontal_Scroll() function when scroll left and right? How to achive this?

This does produce an overhead in that you need to read everything in upfront, but it's not the end of the world.

Once you've read the file, you'll have the number of items in your list:

hScrollBar1.Maximum = this.listOfValues.Count - 10;

How do you find value of bits in byte

gwithey20-Jul-09 23:34

gwithey

20-Jul-09 23:34

I have looked in all my books and on the net and cant find a way to do this, it just tells me about shifting bits which will not be appropriate.

I have a program that recieves a byte[] from an external source.
The array elements represent different things eg(byte[0] bit 1 (rightmost)) = buzzer state (1 on: 0 off)

In the command i recieve there will be 3 bytes, with each contained bit representing a buzzer or LED and its state on or off;

Does anyone know how i can look through the bits and check there state?

Thanx George

You can use the BitArray class to check the value of single bits into a byte array.

Use Ctrl+Left/Right to switch messages, Ctrl+Up/Down to switch threads, Ctrl+Shift+Left/Right to switch pages.
