Well this took me some time to figure out but I finally noticed that the function prototype for _stat is
int __cdecl _stat(_In_z_ const char * _Name, _Out_ struct _stat32 * _Stat);
and that __cdecl is not the standard calling convention. So I changed the DLLImport as follows
[DllImport("msvcrt.dll", SetLastError = true, CallingConvention=CallingConvention.Cdecl)]
and it now works.
Give it a try.

Further information, the STAT structure should be as follows:
public struct STAT
{
public uint st_dev;
public ushort st_ino;
public ushort st_mode;
public short st_nlink;
public short st_uid;
public short st_gid;
public uint st_rdev;
public uint st_size;
public uint st_atime;
public uint st_mtime;
public uint st_ctime;
}
Note the last four entries are uint rather than long values.

You're welcome; perhaps you would be so kind as to vote my answer (the one with the solution)?

I have an application in C# to process scanned invoices. A customer wants to buy a scanner for the application but has these simple requirements:
- Some 50 invoices are received each day, 40 of them single page, 10 multi page
- The 40 single page invoices are put in a stack on the ADF and the "single" button on the scanner is pushed. The scanner then creates 40 files from the 40 invoices, ready for further processing.
- The first multi page invoice is put on the adf and the "multi" button on the scanner is pushed. The scanner then creates 1 (PDF) file from all pages in the adf
- the second multi page invoice etc...
What I want is to program the buttons on the scanner to do exactly that (with resolution and color depth etc). It may be on a network scanner, it may also be an USB scanner (with software running on a dedicated PC).
It must exist, I think it's a reasonable request, but extensive googling gives millions of results but nothing usefull.
Can anybody give me a pointer ?

I'm sorry but scanning from my applications is allmost daily work. I need to scan from the hardware for this solution.
Thanks for your effort.

Well, you forgot to mention that in your initial question. Maybe you should check with the manufacturers to see if there is a published API for their device.

Thank you for trying to be helpfull, just for the record: in my initial post I mentioned:
"and the "single" button on the scanner is pushed"
I can easily create the thing from software, but I want to do it from the hardware. There has been no purchase of a scanner yet, I first want to establish the possibility before I advise to buy something..

OK, that's what a human does, how is that relevant to driving the scanner with software?
PosiRob wrote: I can easily create the thing from software, but I want to do it from the hardware.
Sorry, I'm more confused; you can do it from software but you want to do it from hardware. So how exactly do you hope to drive the hardware if not from some software?

I am create some project by C#. I need to use COM-object axWindowsMediaPlayer. I want to play some AVI resource file. How can I do it? As a rule, I wrote next code for play any file from hard disk:
axWindowsMediaPlayer.URL = @"D:\MyFile.avi"
But this code can play only file located to disk, i.e. I cann't write next code^
axWindowsMediaPlayer.URL = Resource.MyFile
Can you tell me, how can I play some AVI-file from resource file ?
|

your second code can able to play only .wav file when you will use System.Media.SoundPlayer but in case of axWindowsMediaPlayer you need to do conversion of byte[] to stream because .wav file returns System.IO.UnmanagedMemoryStream [Provie access to unmanaged block of memory from managed code] but in case of other audio file it return byte array so conversion is required here.

I am unable to connect to the sql2005express on my laptop
The error I get is:
login failed for user 'UserA'. the user is not associated with a trusted sql server connection
Note that sql server is set for both windows and sql authentication modes.
UserA is created in the login to have access to the database "DBName"
Data Source=.\SQLEXPRESS;Initial Catalog=DBname;User Id=UserA;Password=password
If I use the following connectionstring then it works fine
Data Source=LAPTOPName;Initial Catalog=DBname;IntegratedSecurity=True
Note that I get the Same error when connecting to the sqlexpress instance using sql server management studio and the username password combination
Question:
How can I connect successfully to sqlExpress in my laptop please?
Thanks

Have you restarted SSMS after setting authentication to both windows and Sql server authentication. If that's not the case then THIS[^] ongoing thread may help you to troubleshoot the problem.

In that case, yes, I have done that. and still no difference.

There can be many things that blocks the connection. Even a firewall blocked port(I think the default port is 1433)
Make sure that UserA has granted the permission to connect to the SQL Server.(RightClick on the server in managemet=>SelectedUser has granted(checked) the Permission => Connect SQL)
Obviously the same for the DB itself.
All the best,
Dan

Would this apply to an sqlserverexpress instance on the laptop he is trying to connect from?

That would suggest that it has nothing to do with C#. Instead it has to do with how you set up the user in SQL Server and/or the permissions.
At least in the past, far as I remember, one had to create a user in the server and then associate it with the database. Creating it in the database itself did not work. A forum specific to MS SQL Server might provide more specifics.

Hi all, I'm experiencing something odd (well, to me at least but I'm sure there is a good explanation for it). I have a ComboBox on my form which I populate as follows:
using (SqlCommand myCommand = new SqlCommand("SELECT Value, Description FROM ...", myConnection))
{
using (SqlDataReader myReader = myCommand.ExecuteReader())
{
DataSet myDataSet = new DataSet();
DataTable myDataTable = new DataTable();
myDataSet.Tables.Add(myDataTable);
myDataSet.Load(myReader, LoadOption.PreserveChanges, myDataSource.Tables[0]);
myComboBox.DataSource = myDataSource.Tables[0];
myComboBox.DisplayMember = "Description";
myComboBox.ValueMember = "Value";
}
}
This is the way I've always used to populate ComboBoxes from a DB. If it's wrong, please let me know so I can start doing it differently, although it has worked for me so far.
The problem I'm getting is that I'm trying to set the SelectedValue of the ComboBox immediately after the above block of code with something like
myComboBox.SelectedValue = myDefaultValue;
but it does nothing. When I step through the code I notice that by the time the above line executes the value of myComboBox.Items.Count is still 0 so it appears as if the binding has not finished yet, but the ComboBox does not have a DataBindingComplete() event.
Can anyone tell me of a way to make sure that the ComboBox is bound to the DB before I try to change the SelectedValue explicitly?

I've never done it like this.
I'm not saying it's wrong just that I haven't done it like this.
Usually I create a array[] or list of something(string, int, custom class), load the datas from the db in the list or array through a datareader,
then I use the Items.AddRange() method of the combobox and specify theArray or the theList.ToArray()
All the best,
Dan

Yes, that definitely is a solution although I've always just considered it more elegant to bind the combobox's datasource directly to the queried datasource.
