Why not just add a DateTimePicker[^] control to your main form? Also you should use ShowDialog for your child form (not Show) so that it closes automatically when it is finished.

I don't use datetimepicker because i want use my txtbox class to accept any type of input.
I want that every txtBox (masked with date type) open & destroy it's own formpicker. I Call Show() method and not ShowModal() because i want that the form disappeard when the user click outside of the form.
ANYWAY ... my initial question haven't an answer ... why only adding two messagebox i can avoid an exception ?

Not sure, but something is definitely wrong with your code.

I'm not an expert and could be that i wrote something wrong.
This behaiour is very strange and the code is not complicated.
So i try to post below the complete code part to reproduce the problem.
What is wrong in my code ?
Is Wrong to create a form on the fly (local variable) pass to it a textbox so called it with Show() instead of ShowModal() ? This type of code is not acceppted to the garbage collector ?
Or there is some other problem ?
The below code is completed so is possible to reproduce the problem double cliccking on textbox and selecting a date.

I assume that Close() causes an OnDeactivate-Event if the Form was active at that point. So the first call to Close() in CalDateSelected(..) will dispose the Form and then due to the pending OnDeactivate-Event Close() gets called a second time in TxtBaseDatePickerDeactivate(..). If this assumption is correct, it should work if you unsubscribe from the OnDeactivate-Event (this.OnDeactivate -= TxtBaseDatePickerDeactivate) in CalDateSelected(..) before calling Close().

I've noticed this behaviour ... closing form call deactivate .... but even if i suppress the Close () in deactivation the problem persist.
I tryed to unsubscribe ... but nothing ... no cigar i'm sorry 8) ...I suspect that the problem is inside MonthCalendarControl.
The only way to close after assign the date actually is use a Timer that after 200 ms call this.close ... i think that this de-link the close to the calnedar event.

imho your design is doing a lot of unnecessary work, and you can simplify this easily; if you ask here, I'll show you another way to do so.
One way to increase the encapsulation of your objects is to expose/transmit only the "minimum" that clients of those objects need to have.
You pass an entire TextBox into your Form with a MonthCalendar. I propose to you that you don't need to pass anything to the Form with MonthCalendar.
Equally less-than-optimal, imho, would be to expose the entire MonthCalendar to the main Form.
imho, what is desired is that when your MonthCalendar's SelectionRange is changed, that it raise an Event ... which the Form with the TextBoxes has subscribed to, passing the SelectionRange, or whatever, back to the subscriber.
When the Form with TextBoxes gets the Event (callback), it can then easily insert whatever it has been passed (in the right form) in the current active TextBox.
Also, whether you use ShowDialog, or not, there's no need to create an instance of the Form with MonthCalendar every time you want to use it ! That's a total waste; it's so easy to re-use one instance of that Form.

Quote: You pass an entire TextBox into your Form with a MonthCalendar. I propose to you that you don't need to pass anything to the Form with MonthCalendar.
This choice was made because in my head the picker must disappear when user click outside of it so is necessary a modless form that can't return a value ...
The picker, in my head, should be static, i'm developing the ideas and design to create a Framework, initially i tryed in this mode ... but i can't explain to myself this problems.
Next step would be reuse (or use of a static datepicker).
Thanx for suggestion.

Yes, if you want the Picker Form to disappear when you click outside it, it cannot be shown modally, that's understood.
But, to me that's a separate issue, entirely. You just hide the Picker Form when it fires its Deactivate Event, and that should not cause the behavior you describe.
A MonthCalender Control is an "object:" whether it is "static" or not is a result of how you declared your reference to an instance of that object.
In my view, if you recreate the Picker Form each time you want to use it, that's the opposite of "static." This is static:
// in main Form
private static PickerForm dtPicker = new dtPicker(); // show and hide as needed
Learning how to raise custom events, and create custom event arguments for use with them as needed, is an important part of your .NET toolkit.
If you want to see an example, just ask.
cheers, Bill

Thankyou very much.
I know the concept that you describe, the problem is my my poor english.
My code is a first approach wrote without think to optimize the various aspect. Infact i'll change it. But my varoius question about my code (i posted the complete example) are born because the behaviour is very strange and i want to know why, indipendently from my intention. I can use many ways to avoid the problem ... but i want know why exist the problem.
Actually i don't know where my code is problematic or if there is a Bug in compiler ...
I try to repeat my last question using an example from my experience of ther language.
In VisualFoxPro when i declare a local variable and assign to it an object, the object is destroyed when the scope of variable id ended (unless the object haven't references to objects outside his scope). Now in my code i create an Obect Form with a local Scope to the dblclick event but i show it modless, this implies that after Show() the variable object Form reach his "out of scope", but form remain visible, so i can use it and pick my date. In VFP the form should be destroyed immediatly after show() caused by out of scope of object. My question is, the behaviour of DatePicker is correct or is a latency of garbage collector or some other things that i ignore ?
If i'm not clear please don't esitate to ask me again.

what is code in C# to multiply two bytes in GF(256) with a given primitive polynomial i.e. X^8+x^6+^x^4+1
|
|
|
|
|
|
I'm sure that's going to be of absolutely zero help to OP.
|
|
|
|
|
Perhaps you can offer something better.
|
|
|
|
|
Not really, because I don't know the answer. I do know it's not on that page.
Well, I know how to multiply in GF(2k), using shifts and xors, but I'm not so sure about that remainder.
|
|
|
|
|
I don't know the answer either, but given the lack of any useful detail in the question I pointed OP to the C# mathematical operators. If he comes back with something more concrete then I'll try a bit harder.
|
|
|
|
|
Seems pretty clear to me, multiply and take the remainder by the polynomial, all in GF(256). I've found the answer now so I guess I'll post that..
|
|

Adapted from this[^] but not tested: (probably pretty close though)
int gmul(int a, int b) {
int p = 0;
int counter;
int carry;
for (counter = 0; counter < 8; counter++) {
if ((b & 1) != 0)
p ^= a;
carry = a & 0x80;
a <<= 1;
if (carry != 0)
a ^= 0x81;
b >>= 1;
}
return p & 0xFF;
}

Hi everyone,
I need a function to redact possible SSNs and CCs from a string.
This is for an application that receives messages from customers, which may contain SSNs or CCs. Instead of passing on that message, we want to redact it of the sensitive information.
We do have some SQL functions that do this, but I want to duplicate what they do in C# as we don't want to use Databases.
Have any of you done this sort of thing before?
All the Best to You!
Anne

This sounds like a good case for RegEx.
What method were you using in SQL?
There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

The functions are here:

Thank you so very much for your help!!!

I think I have found my answer:
private static string RedactCC(string stringToRedact)
{
const string pattern = @"(?:4[0-9]{12}(?:[0-9]{3})?|5[1-5][0-9]{14}|6(?:011|5[0-9][0-9])[0-9]{12}|3[47][0-9]{13}|3(?:0[0-5]|[68][0-9])[0-9]{11}|(?:2131|1800|35\d{3})\d{11})";
stringToRedact = Regex.Replace(
stringToRedact,
pattern,
m => "***-**-" + m.Value.Substring(m.Value.Length - 4, 4));
return stringToRedact;
}
private static string RedactSSN(string stringToRedact)
{
const string pattern = @"\d{3}-\d{2}-\d{4}";
stringToRedact = Regex.Replace(
stringToRedact,
pattern,
m => "***-**-" + m.Value.Substring(m.Value.Length - 4, 4));
return stringToRedact;
}
Maybe this post will help someone else in the future.

Find() will only load the one object. It will not load related objects. Use SingleOrDefault() instead.
If there is no primary key field for a table, EF will not work with it. You MUST define the ID field for the table, otherwise EF has no way of updating that table.
