How can I add or subtract value from DateTime,like this:
mydatetime = DateTime.Now – SixHour
Or
Mydatetime = DateTime.Now - SixHour and Half Minutes

See the AddHours method[^] or the Subtraction operator[^]. Both will do nicely.
And don't forget to visit the TimeSpan [^]object.
Try:
DateTime nm6 = DateTime.Now - new TimeSpan (6, 0, 0);

There is quite a bit involved to do this using .net.
Take a look at this usenet post on microsoft.public.dotnet.languages.csharp. It should get you rolling.

I am writing a utility to check the health of an application and I would like to check if a particular Windows service is installed and if it is whether it is running or not.
I have used the System.ServiceProcess.ServiceController class to see if a service is running or not (and this works fine) but I can't find a way to trap if the service is actually installed.
I could interate through the ServiceController[] using GetServices but this seems to be a bit "clunky" particularly becauseI want to check the existence of a number of services as the utility loads.
Is there a class/method that will do this for me?
Anyone got any ideas on how to do it?
Thanks for your help

I don't know if I understand your problem.When you can get list of services,check the name of them if your proper names are there so they are installed,whats the problem with that?

Hi Mazy,
Thanks for the reply.
It just seems to be a lot of work when I would have expected an exception to be returned by ServiceController to say that the service is not installed.
If you use VBA and the windows API "advapi32.dll" the QueryServiceStatus method returns an error that shows if the service is installed - surely C# has an equivalent - maybe not.

Well,When I want to do that I just look up in ServiceController[] which used GetServices().I look just check each ServiceName property for ServiceController[] and if its there so it is installed.Its not that muck hard or caused any expetion.And I can get the status of each service by Status prperty.
Anyway,You can use QueryServiceStatus in C# too.You can use it like the way you use other win32 functions in C# but thats very hard and boring.You can write a DLL with MC++(I GUESS you can do that with VB.NET too) and do this jon in it and then it is REALLY easy to reuse it in C#.If you want to do it in this way I can help you more.
I don't think you have any other choices,there is nothing like that in .Net framework as much as I know.

Mazy,
Many thanks for your advice.
You have confirmed my thoughts, it just seems odd that when someone has written a class that gets a service status that one of the status conditions would not be "its not installed".
I am going to opt for using ServiceConroller[].
Regards
Andy

I completely agree with you. Worse there doesn't seem to be any native .NET way of getting all the information you could normally get using QueryServiceStatus() that is returned in the SERVICE_STATUS structure. .NET needs to replace the ServiceStatus enum with a class.
|

|

This works for me..
public bool IsInstalled()
{
try
{
string str;
ServiceController sc = new ServiceController(myServiceName);
// accessing some property will throw an exception if not installed.
str = sc.ServiceName;
}
catch (Exception)
{
return false;
}
return true;
}

I've written a tray based application and overridden the OnClosing where I iconify the application instead of closing it. However, when I'm trying to shut down or restart my computer the program wont shut down and the computer wont reboot or shutdown until I exit the program. I know that WIndows sends the message WM_ENDSESSION when the system goes down, but how do I handle this from my hidden application in the traybar? Or is there another simple solution of this problem

Is that the only method (OnClosing) you wrote an override for?

I've overridden OnLoad, OnResize, Dispose (that's default?) and OnClosing.

I hate to say it, but that's just weird. I have a similar app except minimize (rather than close) puts it in the tray and it doesn't seem to have any problem at all. So there may be something about the OnClosing method that I'm not aware of. Does your code look like this?:
protected void OnClosing(CancelEventArgs e)
{
base.OnClosing(e);
e.Cancel = true;
this.WindowState = FormWindowState.Minimized;
return;
}

Is this a normal app with a tray icon, or a system service, because surely the app would shut down normally as any windows form app would. The only thing I can think of is that you havn't disposed the NotifyIcon in the Dispose Override.
If its a system service then I can't help, never written one in C#.

Somewhere on CP there is an article you can use in the Closing event to determine why you are being closed. Use that to handle the case where windows is shutting down to exit your program.

Your application is still running so it should still get the WM_ENDSESSION message. You'll need to lookup the real value of WM_ENDSESSION, then override WndProc to handle it.
protected override void WndProc(ref Message m)
{
const int WM_ENDSESSION = 0x0016;
switch(m.Msg)
{
case WM_ENDSESSION:
bool sessionEnding = (bool) m.WParam;
m.Result = 0;
break;
default:
base.WndProc(ref m);
}
}However, MSDN says "The application need not call the DestroyWindow or PostQuitMessage function when the session is ending." so I don't think this is a suitable addition without my first suggestion implemented.

Thanks for your answers, you have given me some new ideas to try out. However I have another problem now. When the app is to execute, I get an exception :-/
The exceptions says "Error creating window handle" at the Application.Run(); in main. It didn't yesterday

Using the .Net 1.1 SDK you can just use the
System.Windows.Forms.FolderBrowserDialog.
If you are using the 1.0 SDK you can inherit from
System.Windows.Forms.Design.FolderNameEditor.
This implementation will most likely require that you use a
FolderNameEditor.FolderBrowser.
I have a class already written that can do this job if you like.
Also, I think there is at least one implementation posted here on CP.
Hey don't worry, I can handle it. I took something. I can see things no one else can see. Why are you dressed like that?

By using FolderNameEditor class and FolderBrowser class u can make Directory Dialog Box.
public class DirBrowser : FolderNameEditor
{
FolderBrowser fb = new FolderBrowser();
public string DirectoryPath
{
get
{
return strDirectoryPath;
}
}
public DirBrowser() { }
public DialogResult ShowDialog()
{
fb.Description = "Choose Directory";
fb.StartLocation = FolderBrowserFolder.MyComputer;
fb.Style = FolderBrowserStyles.RestrictToFilesystem;
DialogResult dlgResult = fb.ShowDialog();
if (dlgResult == DialogResult.OK)
strDirectoryPath = fb.DirectoryPath;
else
strDirectoryPath = "";
return dlgResult;
}
private string strDirectoryPath = "";
}
Instaniate DirBrowser class, call ShowDialog function and use DirectoryPath property to get the directory path :-
DirBrowser obDirBrowser = new DirBrowser();
obDirBrowser.ShowDialog ();
txtLogFilePath.Text = obDirBrowser.DirectoryPath ;
Chito.
