Thanks for the replies. I will read up on the method of going through the parent. This way, the parent can have all the "global" parameters which I need.
So in non-good-SW-design language, I can pass all parameters (whatever they are from text to check box, etc...) to the parent, and the parent can keep them and pass them to the next child.
Do I get it right?
I will have to read up on how to do it now. Thanks for the direction.

On thing I failed to ask:
- Is there a good article on codeproject.com which goes through this? Or would you recommend a beginner's book which can help get started on C# the right way?
Thanks,

Take a look here[^], where you will find hundreds of articles with excellent ideas and suggestions.

It is very hard to help u that way. Better you should read basic books to grow your knowledgebase and then try yourself...
After that if you still find problems, ask specific problems. We would glad to help you that time. 
By this way, you will also learn basics of .NET.![Rose | [Rose]](https://www.codeproject.com/script/Forums/Images/rose.gif)

This is asked often and it's a dumb question. You know best what your areas of strength are ( although you seem to me to be saying that you don't have any ? ), and what is likely to impress your teachers.

I think you should write a program to analyse all pieces of music that have ever been recorded, and identify common themes, motifs and rhythmic structures used therein. In order to do this, you should load the music into the memory of all the machines that you use and perform the analysis there without letting the program stop at all. Let the program run for as long as possible, and hopefully the fact that your machine is locked up will stop you posting lame questions like this.

Actually, this has already been done ... and is being used to predict which new "tunes" will be a hit / popular based on their structure relative to other popular tunes.

Yeah but if this guy attempts it he will surely disappear for some time, which is Petes goal.

Noone can help you. You have to come up with a project idea that suits your skill level and is of interest to you.
Noone is going to do this project with you "50:50". This is YOU work assignment for YOUR class to demonstrate that YOU have learn the skills necessary to pass it.

Harsh, but true. In college I also had to do such an assignment together with three young ladies who unfortunately did not even know where to begin. In the end I wound up doing practically everything myself. I even managed to coach them through the discussion of the rsults with the professor, who obviously knew what was going on and simply played along. So we all got a passing grade, but I was the only one who also learned a little.

That is why we always advice people to at least try themselves....

He means he wants the project idea to be 50% easy and 50% challenging.
I agree, this is a dumb question and I don't get why so many people ask it.

hi. Dunno how to properly name the question, but here it goes.
I got my lib (dll) exporting function which returns 2 unsigned long values:
1 is a single number and
2 is table which contains a lot of numbers. Basically it looks like this:
DWORD MyFunc(PULONG table, PULONG nr);
then call it:
ulong table[256];
ulong nr;
MyFunc(&table, &nr);
My dll is written in win32 api. Next i got C# app which have to access to this function.
And here i dont know to do it. Any suggestions?
code like:
Uint32[] table= new Uint32[256];
Uint32 nr = new Uint32();
MyFunc(out table, out nr);
crashes C# app.

You cannot call a C/C++ Win32 function directly from C# in this way. You need to use the P/Invoke[^] mechanism.

Yes, i am using pinvke, i am loading my dll like this:
[DllImport("C:\\Users\\Administrator\\Desktop\\TinyDLL\\TinyDLL.dll", CharSet = CharSet.Auto)]
public static extern int function(
ref int[] table,
ref ulong nr
);
I am doing everything like it should be done. I know how to use win32 functions and pure native API functions from C# application. But i got no idea how this could be translated to C#:
ULONG something[256];
GetThisSomething(&something);
while "something" will contain tables of integers

csrss wrote: ULONG something[256];

I think you need something like:
int[] intArray = new int[256];
ulong ulNumber = 0;
GetThisSomething(ref intArray, ref ulNumber);

|

That is exactly what i am doing. And unfortunately it does not returning Table. It returns single number just fine but fails with Table

Hi,
you can't use out or ref for this.
you need one of two techniques that ensure the arrays don't get moved around by the GC:
1.
The fixed keyword (C# only): it requires the unsafe keyword, and the "allow unsafe code" compiler switch; it fixes the object, and allows you to get its pointer. Here is a C# example:
unsafe public int ArrayFixed() {
int dim=1000;
int[] numbers=new int[dim];
...
int sum;
fixed (int* pNumbers=&numbers[0]) {
sum=SumArray(pNumbers, dim);
}
return sum;
}
[DllImport("native.dll")]
unsafe public static extern int SumArray(int* pNumbers, int count);
2.
The GCHandle class: it does not require any "unsafe" stuff; one needs to pin the object, get the pointer, and when done to unpin the object; here is a C# example:
public int ArrayHandle() {
int dim=10000;
int[] numbers=new int[dim];
...
GCHandle handle=GCHandle.Alloc(numbers, GCHandleType.Pinned);
int sum=SumArray(handle.AddrOfPinnedObject(), dim);
handle.Free();
return sum;
}
[DllImport("nativeC.dll")]
public static extern int SumArray(IntPtr pNumbers, int count);

Right.
I'm still working on the subject; seems like it may grow into a series of 3 or more articles.
And it is getting more and more difficult to introduce all of it in a logical order as it all is strongly interconnected.

Luc, thanks very much, i will try this out 
Edit: Now i got "unable to load dll, access to invalid memory location" ;/
This c# is killing me, i cannot even export simple HelloWorld function which return messagebox...
Going to switch back to gtk gui development, thanks anyway for your help guys.

Hello,
this is my first post here, up to now I have only been reading. My question arose from an argument about my habit to write lines like
if( SomeBooleanvariable == true)
{
}
instead of
if( SomeBooleanvariable)
{
}
Granted, it's a bit verbose, but I did not think it would cause the compiler to generate slightly inefficient code. Looking at the disassembly settled the arguement. It generated the same code in both cases.
When looking at the disassembly I noticed something else. The compiler had inserted some apparently needless NOP instructions. What are they good for? This was taken from the release build:
if (bValue == true)
00000000 push ebp
00000001 mov ebp,esp
00000003 push ebx
00000004 sub esp,8
00000007 mov dword ptr [ebp-0Ch],ecx
0000000a mov dword ptr [ebp-8],edx
0000000d cmp dword ptr ds:[01BC150Ch],0
00000014 je 0000001B
00000016 call 685A9061
0000001b movzx eax,byte ptr [ebp-8]
0000001f test eax,eax
00000021 je 0000003E
{
m_lFlags = m_lFlags | (long)Flags;
00000023 mov eax,dword ptr [ebp-0Ch]
00000026 mov edx,dword ptr [eax+8]
00000029 mov eax,dword ptr [eax+4]
0000002c or eax,dword ptr [ebp+8]
0000002f or edx,dword ptr [ebp+0Ch]
00000032 mov ecx,dword ptr [ebp-0Ch]
00000035 mov dword ptr [ecx+4],eax
00000038 mov dword ptr [ecx+8],edx
0000003b nop
0000003c jmp 0000005D
}
else
{
m_lFlags = m_lFlags & ~(long)Flags;
0000003e mov eax,dword ptr [ebp+8]
00000041 mov edx,dword ptr [ebp+0Ch]
00000044 not eax
00000046 not edx
00000048 mov ebx,dword ptr [ebp-0Ch]
0000004b and eax,dword ptr [ebx+4]
0000004e and edx,dword ptr [ebx+8]
00000051 mov ecx,dword ptr [ebp-0Ch]
00000054 mov dword ptr [ecx+4],eax
00000057 mov dword ptr [ecx+8],edx
}
It has been a while since I really did some assembly on an x86 CPU and I see no immediate use for the NOP at address 0000003b. In the debug build there were more of them, but this one did not disappear in the release build.
