I guess we need to see your code to understand what's going on. If you're assigning a key in the settings, then I have no idea how that would work, but if you catch a keypress event on the form, that should always work.

this.btnShowMessage.KeyUp+= new System.Windows.Forms.KeyEventHandler(this.formClose);

Why is your event called formClose ?
Well, your code does exactly what you told it to. You're handling events on the button, therefore only if the button has focus, will it fire. Add this event to the form instead.

I have a struct that is pinned for use with a few unmanaged functions. One of the fields in the structure is a byte[]. Should I also pin this, or is the pinning of the structure enough?
(Luc - help! I'll get my head around this PInvoke stuff eventually  )

You rang milord?
what is the other side? a win32 function, your C/C++ function, someone's C/C++ function?
is it using a native struct containing a fixed-size array? if so, you need [MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.ByValArray, SizeConst=7777)], which means the array is smashed into the struct, hence there is only one object that should not move. Now be careful with padding; either side may decide to inject dummy bytes for better alignment. Managed side can avoid that by using both [StructLayout(LayoutKind.Sequential)] overall and [FieldOffset(8888)] for each member. However you then are responsible for providing correct offsets; a technique I tend to use is add dummy bytes myself (both ends), rather than rely on attributes/directives. Basic rule is keep every member "naturally aligned", i.e. if size=N, then offset best is a multiple of N.
If it really is a byte pointer, you have two objects that shouldn't move. And the struct then contains an IntPtr which takes 4B or 8B (Win32/Win64). For a small array, Marshal.Copy may help out.

Yes Jeeves!
Sorry, my mistake - this stuff fries my few remaining brain cells. It's actually a pointer to a byte array so obviously I'll have to pin it or something similar  .
It could be up to a max of 64KB. The byte array is actually a translation of a struct with a variable length array that I have already padded as the API says it must be word aligned. For an array of this size would I be better pinning or copying in your opinion?

Copying is against my religion, I always pin (unless it is an array smashed in a struct), with GCHandle most often. I would never copy 64KB if I don't have to, it takes cycles and bytes, and it trashes the caches.
DaveyM69 wrote: I have already padded as the API says it must be word aligned
 I would find it very hard to get an object that isn't word aligned. AFAIK every value type (with a size of at least 4B) and every object (an array is an object!) is aligned to at least 4B, probably 8 or more. Same is true on all C systems I've encountered (e.g. using malloc). And the only way you could accidentally loose alignment is by prefixing something smaller inside a struct.

Pinning it is then - cheers again. If ever I'm in Belgium I must buy you several ![Beer | [beer]](https://codeproject.global.ssl.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/beer.gif) s
I meant the byte array inside the struct (has to be padded to ensure everything else in there is aligned) that I'm then converting to a byte array, who's pointer I need to pass to the main structure which is pinned - you can see why this melted my brain!

Good guess. I had to suspend work on what I was doing a few months ago due to other pressures. I've recently picked it up again and trying to clean up some of the parts I wasn't totally happy with before. The wrapper is pretty much complete and tested - next step will be to write a few simple demos to show it off. Article pending ... I'll include a few samples of my musical work in there too

I don't know if you caught that thread or not - it's here[^] if not.
It is part of this same project. It was actually a bit of a repost with a solution I discovered accidentally to a problem that I never fully resolved before. If you can shed any light on this and/or would like to see the real code let me know. I'm still not 100% sure why it works amd I may be relying on undocumented behaviour by the GC which worries me as it may change and break this safety net. On the other hand, if it works that way by design then cool

Hey there,
I have a c# project and I'm working in VS 2005 and .NET V2 SP2. I also have a web service built in Java that runs on jBoss 4.2.3. In this web service is a method that originally took a number of parameters that kept growing in size over time. Some of these parameters were of type long[].
The web service method was recently changed so that instead of having several parameters it had a single parameter which was an object that contains all parameters. This made it so that whenever we added new functionality to the method it's stub would not change.
Now when I update my reference in the c# project I see the single object but contained within that the long[] parameters are now long?[], which are nullable of course. I don't want this as it could break the existing code if a comsuming app were to pass in an array with null elements.
Can anyone please explain why it is doing this and if there is way of preventing this?
Thanks!
Brian

I'm working on a solution that pulls in components from different projects. I have my Data Access class, some custom controls I wrote, my App Security class, and the WinForm components. All of these access data, and so far, all of them use their own connections.
I was thinking about creating a ref to my data access class in each project that needs data. I would also include a Connection property that, if populated with an open connection, would be used so that in most cases, I'd only ever have one connection to the data source. If the connection property has not been populated, then the class would establish it's own connection using the data access class.
Any thoughts on this?
Everything makes sense in someone's mind

The connections should only be created in the data access object(s). There shouldn't be any reason for the other components to create a connection and pass it to the data access class. Doing so runs the risk having the connection opened far longer than necessary, or having it closed by the time the data access needs it, plus other design and maintenance concerns.

Yes, but wouldn't that result in multiple connections open? I'v always heard that an app should only have one, maybe two, open connections.

Kevin Marois wrote: but wouldn't that result in multiple connections open?
Only if you allow it to. You could make the data access component a singleton. However, the chance of having multiple connections open is minimal if you fallow the rule that the connection should be opened as late as possible and closed as soon as possible.

Hi,
I want to use a DetailsView to insert a record into an empty list.
I have a DetailsView in my page source (DefaultMode set to insert), and the datasource in set in the codebehind.
myObject = new CustomObject();
if (!IsPostBack)
{
myDetailsView.DataSource = new List<customobject>() {myObject};
myDetailsView.DataBind();
}
...Then I run the website and type some text into one of the bound fields,
then click a button on the form...
protected void Button_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
string s = myObject.myProperty;
}
But the value of the object is NULL.
Even myDetailsView.DataSource returns an empty list
what am I doing wrong??? I just want to retrieve the values types into the DetailsView
Thanks
James

The first thing is not asking this in the ASP.NET forum.

Your object is null because you have not persisted it in any way.

Of course its empty, your're not re-binding it during your postback

I am running a SQL statement in C#, where I am using the WHERE clause to limit a query to a date.
Here's the SQL:
DbCommand.CommandText = "SELECT SUM-DATE, SUM-STORE, SUM(SUM-RETURNS) FROM SUMMARY WHERE SUM-DATE = '" + dtProcDate + "' GROUP BY SUM-STORE";
The dtProcDate is assigned here:
if (DateTime.Now.DayOfWeek == DayOfWeek.Monday)
{
dtProcDate = DateTime.Now.AddDays(-2);
}
else
{
dtProcDate = DateTime.Now.AddDays(-1);
}
When I query just the date, I get the date in the MM/DD/YYYY HH:MM:SS AM/PM format, which is what dtProcDate shows as it's format also.
Here is the Error:
ERROR [HY000] Data Type Mismatch in WHERE clause, Value '10/24/2009 2:22:39 PM'.
What am I missing here?

Let me know what database you are using??
check this :
here[^]
|
|
|
|
|
Thanx for the link.
The database is System Z.
I am no longer getting a type mismatch. I changed dtProcDate to dtProcDate.ToShortDateString(), but I am not getting the result I want.
Jude

Depends. The most likely pair are:
1) SUM-DATE is not a DateTime.
2) Your datetime format is not what the database is expecting. Remember that
string + DateTime + string is an implicit
string + DateTime.ToString() + string which means it is formated to your current default environment - in this case "dd/mm/yyyy". Try changing to
dtProcDate.ToString("yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss"); and you should be fine.
See here for DateTime.ToString formats[^]
