This should be an easy question. I have a pointer to memory (a DIB), and I'm wanting to copy that memory to a Bitmap.
So, the second to the last line needs to copy from a IntPtr to an IntPtr. Problem is that Marshal.Copy will convert anything to a IntPtr, or an IntPtr to anything, but it won't copy from an IntPtr to an IntPtr.
So, how are you supposed to copy from one pointer to another?
Thanks!!
Rectangle rcImage = new Rectangle( 0, 0, iWidth, iHeight );
m_CurrentImage = new Bitmap( iWidth, iHeight, PixelFormat.Format8bppIndexed );
BitmapData pBitmapData = m_CurrentImage.LockBits( rcImage, ImageLockMode.WriteOnly, PixelFormat.Format8bppIndexed );
Marshal.Copy( hDibBitmap, pBitmapData.Scan0, 0, iWidth * iHeight );
m_CurrentImage.UnlockBits( pBitmapData );

Why on earth do you wanna do that?  Why not just use the pointer?
OK I see what you are trying to do...perhaps Marshalling is NOT what need. Also you lock the memory as ReadOnly, then try to copy to it.... something strange! I have not worked with this before but AFAI can see you mite need to use ImageLockMode.UserInputBuffer...

Because Microsoft told me to!!
In general, you may take the following steps to create a Bitmap from a DIB with GDI+:<br />
<br />
1. Create a Bitmap<br />
2. Lock a rectangular portion of this bitmap and provide a temporary buffer <br />
via the LockBits method<br />
3. Copy the memory from DIB<br />
4. Unlock the Bitmap<br />
<br />

I've read about 20 posts on how to create a Bitmap from the old traditional DIB and they always say about the same thing. My application is trying to convert a Twain DIB to a bitmap without saving/loading the image.
And you were right about the ReadOnly flag. I hadn't gotten it to compile enough to test it.
A lot of people are apparently having the same issue with the TWAIN support. .NET Twain Image Scanner

Sounds to me like you want to use the InteropServices and DllImport the CopyMemory function (from Kernel32.dll I think).
John :D

DOH!!! I am so nearsighted on the issue, I keep forgetting you can access the API directly.
I was so concentrating on trying to get Marshal to work since it has like 28 friggin overrides.
Thanks John!

Grr, I was just gonna sugest that! But his reply gave me a hunch to fix a small problem I have had for a long time

Well, if it makes you feel any better leppie, no success yet.
On the 'CopyMemory' step, getting 'object reference not set to an instance of an object' and no clues atm.
[DllImport("kernel32.dll", EntryPoint="RtlMoveMemory")]<br />
internal static extern void CopyMemory( IntPtr Destination, IntPtr Source, int Length );<br />
<br />
.....<br />
<br />
Rectangle rcImage = new Rectangle( 0, 0, iWidth, iHeight );<br />
<br />
m_CurrentImage = new Bitmap( iWidth, iHeight, PixelFormat.Format8bppIndexed );<br />
<br />
BitmapData pBitmapData = m_CurrentImage.LockBits( rcImage, ImageLockMode.ReadWrite, PixelFormat.Format8bppIndexed );<br />
<br />
CopyMemory( pBitmapData.Scan0, hDibBitmap, iWidth * iHeight );<br />
<br />
m_CurrentImage.UnlockBits( pBitmapData );

Finally have some success. Thanks guys!!
I just needed to Lock my source pointer and it's working 'ok' at this time. Still gotta flip the memory upside down and ignore the headers.

I have a Web Service that I've created called CreditSearch. This Web Service has a single exposed method called Search that returns the requested individual's credit in an XML-formatted string. I then have an ASPX client that calls accepts an SSN as input, calls the service's Search method and displays the results. So far, very easy.
However, I think I'm doing some steps incorrectly. What I do is build the service, run the wsdl utility to create a .cs file, copy that .cs file into the client's project and then run the client. Is this correct?
It seems that I'm supposed to - instead of manually callnig wsdl - select the Add Web Reference menu option and have it do the work for me. However, when I do that, the client code no longer builds. What am I doing wrong here?

Did you add "using statement" to the client code?
After we add Web reference, we must add using statement by hand.
For example, using servicename.host_name.
"using Search.localhost".
Please, don't send me your email about your programming questions directly.
However, if you believe that you gives me some benefits, you can send me your email.

If only it were that simple. For some reason, the reference file being generated contains an empty class with its public members not showing up.

I found the problem. Properties that are to be exposed by marshalled objects cannot be read-only or they won't be exposed via the WSDL. This is because of some lame rule that the serializer imposes. Get this, though. The set method can be blank meaning that we're forced to include a method that does absolutely nothing in order to make the compiler happy

I came across the same problem today with the XMLSerialiser... But in an attempt to deserialise the object (in my case quite complex) failed...

1. (The probably ridiculous question Can a Panel be on one thread, and it's parent Form be on another?
2. I want my app to have two threads- main and worker. How do I stop the worker thread from ending while its waiting for stuff to do? Do I actually have to make some kind of hackish while(true) loop while it's waiting for something to do. If I do that, and then the main Thread calls one of the workers's functions via a delegate, then how do I make it escape the while loop to do it's work?
I mean, the main thread in a normal app doesn't need anything like that in it, it just stays alive waiting for events until the user exits the app. Its not like we do void Main{while(true) listenforevents();} you what I mean? Is there a Thread.ListenForEvents=true so that it won't die?

well I answered my first question!
System.ArgumentException: Controls created on one thread cannot be parented to a control on a different thread.
still don't know my other question tho

Not really answered but more of a description to the problem! I sat with this for ages (2 - 3 weeks) when I started C#. The solution is to invoke the method than rather calling it directly. Then this opertion is perfectly allowable!

Changing the opacity of a MDI child form has no effect.
If I change the opacity of the MDI parent, then the child's opacity changes too.
What I want to do is change the child's opacity independent of the parent's.
Is this possible?
Or, maybe the child form is considered a "control" of the parent and then inherits some characteristics from it.
Cheers,
Simon

Hello Friends,
I am trying to create an installer for my application which will check if the .NET Framework is
installed on the user machine. If the framework is not installed then I want my installer to
first install the framework and then install my application.And if the frameWork is installed it
should directly install my application escaping installing .NET Framework.
I have developed the installer using the procedure given in msdn "Redistributing Dotnetfx.exe
using Setup.exe Bootstrapper".
My installer folder, which is right now on my local m/c having path D:\\Installer, contains
following files...
1)mySetup.msi
2)setup.exe
3)settings.ini
4)dotNetFrameWork/dotnetfx.exe
My setting file looks like this
[Bootstrap]
Msi=mySetUp.msi
'LanguageDirectory=
'ProductName=testproductname
'DialogText=
'CaptionText=
'ErrorCaptionText=
FxInstallerPath=dotNetFramework\
now when i try to open/run setup.exe its giving me following error :
"Incorrect command line parameters".
I've tried using :
FxInstallerPath=D:\\Installer\dotNetFramework\
But still getting the same problem.
Can anyone tell me whats the problem.
Thanks in advance.
regards,
Saroj
