Re: code doesn`t work in win xp but works win 7 - C# Discussion Boards

31-Jul-12 20:53

I have a project reading from XML file and than show it in datagridview. The code works great in win 7 and show the data as needed but when I tried to run in it in win xp, it reads from the file ok but only show the 1st column of the data. I don`t know what the problem is but it is not in the read process (I debugged it line by line) but ofcourse I`m missing something.
What can it be?
I don`t know it has any connection but I`m using win 7 64bits with VS 2008 32bit and win XP and VS 2008.

Without the relevant code fragment?

The code to fill the datagridview is:

private void FillGridViewFromDataTable()
       {
           dataGridView.DataSource = m_table;
           dataGridView.Columns["PrinterIP"].HeaderText = "IP כתובת";
           dataGridView.Columns["PrinterIP"].AutoSizeMode = DataGridViewAutoSizeColumnMode.Fill;
           dataGridView.Columns["PrinterName"].HeaderText = "מזהה מדפסת";
           dataGridView.Columns["PrinterName"].AutoSizeMode = DataGridViewAutoSizeColumnMode.Fill;
           dataGridView.Columns["PrinterConnect"].HeaderText = "מחובר לרשת";
           dataGridView.Columns["PrinterConnect"].AutoSizeMode = DataGridViewAutoSizeColumnMode.Fill;
           dataGridView.Columns["PrinterCounter"].HeaderText = "מונה";
           dataGridView.Columns["PrinterCounter"].AutoSizeMode = DataGridViewAutoSizeColumnMode.Fill;
           dataGridView.Columns["PrinterPlace"].HeaderText = "מיקום";
           dataGridView.Columns["PrinterPlace"].AutoSizeMode = DataGridViewAutoSizeColumnMode.Fill;
           dataGridView.RowHeadersVisible = false;}

I know that the reading from XML file is good, so something doesn`t work in the display part. As I said before on win7 it works perfectly.

Thank you

Looking at the header text, I suspect that culture/font may be the issue here.

Thanks for the quick answer. I tried to change it to english but it still doesn`t show the data correct. I may add that in the list I have 3 printers but it only shows 1 and not all the information needed. It shows only the printer IP (1st column). What else can it be?

Just as an experiment, change the AutoSizeMode to None for each column.

Thanks for the help but still nothing. It maybe something with the entering the data into the datagrideview:

//reading from the xml
 private void ReadFromXml()
        {
            List<Printer> PrinterList = new List<Printer>();
            TextReader textReader = new StreamReader("xml\\PrinterDetailsLi.xml");
            XmlSerializer deserializer = new XmlSerializer(typeof(List<Printer>));
            PrinterList = (List<Printer>)deserializer.Deserialize(textReader);
            textReader.Close();

            Ping pingSender = new Ping();
            IPAddress address = IPAddress.Loopback;

            for (int i = 0; i < PrinterList.Count; i++)
            {
                PrinterList PList = new PrinterList();
                //add an xml row to data table
                IPAddress ip = IPAddress.Parse(PrinterList[i].PrinterIP);
                PingReply reply = pingSender.Send(ip,5);
                if (reply.Status == IPStatus.Success)
                {
                    DataRow row = m_table.NewRow();
                    SNMP snmp = new SNMP(PrinterList[i].PrinterIP);
                    string Res = snmp.connectSnmp();
                    row["PrinterConnect"] = "כן";
                    row["PrinterCounter"] = Res;
                    row["PrinterName"] = PrinterList[i].PrinterName;
                    row["PrinterIP"] = PrinterList[i].PrinterIP;
                    m_table.Rows.Add(row);
                    PList.PrintConnect = 1;
                    PList.PrintCounter = Res;
                    PList.PrintIP = PrinterList[i].PrinterIP;
                    PList.PrintName = PrinterList[i].PrinterName;
                    PList.date = DateTime.Today;
                    PrList.Add(PList);
                }
                else
                {
                    DataRow row = m_table.NewRow();
                    row["PrinterConnect"] = "לא";
                    row["PrinterCounter"] = "--";
                    row["PrinterName"] = PrinterList[i].PrinterName;
                    row["PrinterIP"] = PrinterList[i].PrinterIP;
                    row["PrinterPlace"] = PrinterList[i].PrinterPlace;
                    m_table.Rows.Add(row);
                    PList.PrintConnect = 0;
                    PList.PrintCounter = "--";
                    PList.PrintIP = PrinterList[i].PrinterIP;
                    PList.PrintName = PrinterList[i].PrinterName;
                    PList.date = DateTime.Today;
                    PrList.Add(PList);
                }
            }

            XmlSerializer serializer = new XmlSerializer(typeof(List<Printer>));
            TextWriter Pd = new StreamWriter(("xml\\PrinterDetailsLi.xml"));
            serializer.Serialize(Pd, PrinterList);
            Pd.Close();
        }

What else can make it work on win7 but not on win XP?

And you're certain that the other columns are being populated properly in m_table? Try setting AutoGenerateColumns=true to see what it thinks the rows are in the DataTable.

Thank for the help, I have found the problem. The font color is white. All I had to do is change the color of the font.

Thank you for the help, You helped a lot!

Nah, I don't think I helped that much. Kudos to you for figuring it out, and a healthy 5 from me (now don't forget to put Solved on your original post so that we know it's been solved).

Any idea how can I convert a string to array for the below example:

string name = "John,Calvin,Steve";
convert to
string [] arr = new string[] {"John","Calvin","Steve"};

Use String.Split[^] on the common delimiter character (; in this example).

Just be careful with Split because it will split on delimiters within quotes -- which is not usually desired.

How many questions have you asked in the forums and you still can't work out which one you should post in? Take this to the ASP.NET forum.

And I doubt you are going to get an answer here because you posted this in the wrong forum. What details did you get when you googled for an answer?

The regular people who answer questions around here are going to answer your question, if posted in the correct forum, on their own time, not yours. Also, if the question doesn't make sense or you are known to be asking basic questions over and over again, you'll probably be ignored because you haven't taken the advice on picking up books and teaching yourself the basics.

People really don't want to write huge forum posts explaining the basics to you if you're not going to make the effort to teach yourself this stuff.
