Oooops big typo.
Yes, I mean MouseUp and Down event with timer will accomplish his task

Don't use a Timer. Use the methods on the Button MouseDown to start the update and MouseUp to stop the update.
You should probably do the updating on a separate Thread ... this CodeProject article can be adapted to do what you want - Simple Threading[^]
For example I have a button btnDemo - when I hold it "down" with my mouse a label lblDemo will get a number displayed. When I release the button then the label will get the text "stopped"...
Here is the code that handles the mouseclicks on the button
private void btnDemo_MouseDown(object sender, MouseEventArgs e)
{
demoThread = new Thread(ThreadProcSafe);
btnDemo.Text = "Stop Demo";
demoThread.Start();
}
private void btnDemo_MouseUp(object sender, MouseEventArgs e)
{
if (!stopDemo)
{
stopDemo = true;
if (!demoThread.Join(1000))
{
demoThread.Abort();
}
SetText("Stopped");
btnDemo.Text = "Start Demo";
}
}And here is the code that actually sets up the thread and SetText functons (with some very basic error handling). These are the bits you need to change to put your message in your TextBox
delegate void SetTextCallback(string text);
private Thread demoThread;
private volatile bool stopDemo;
private void ThreadProcSafe()
{
var x = 0;
while (!stopDemo)
{
SetText((x++).ToString());
Thread.Sleep(600);
}
}
private void SetText(string text)
{
try
{
if (lbl_right.Disposing) return;
if (lblDemo.InvokeRequired)
{
var d = new SetTextCallback(SetText);
BeginInvoke(d, text);
}
else
lblDemo.Text = text;
}
catch (Exception e)
{
MessageBox.Show(e.Message);
}
}
If you read the article it points out that sometimes the threads won't close properly when you attempt to close the application. Because we have the thread starting on a mouse down and ending on the mouse-up this is less likely but still worth adding this method into the form -
protected override void OnClosed(EventArgs e)
{
stopDemo = true;
if (!demoThread.Join(1000))
{
demoThread.Abort();
}
base.OnClosed(e);
}

I am updating my all in one IServiceProvider IoC container.
Previously I was only accessing public type, public constructors, public properties.
Now I am also checking private stuff.
Now when I run my console app.
Assembly a;
a.DefinedTypes
Work fine and I can enumerate them and instantiate them. Whether or not they are private type.
But I suspect there are circumstance where this utility class won't be working.. In fact my .NET security is... tenuous... but you could reduce the right of a piece of code...
How to check whether or not I can do those private reflective operation or not?!
When Can't I do them?

Im very new to C# and am trying to use conversion tools to change some VB over. Im not quite sure how to remedy this error, so any help I can get is greatly appreciated!
This is the error Im receiving:
"CS0266: Cannot implicitly convert type 'System.Web.UI.Control' to 'System.Web.UI.WebControls.LinkButton'. An explicit conversion exists (are you missing a cast?)"
for Line 93
myDeleteButton = myTableCell.Controls[0];

It would really help us to help you if you actually indicated (with a comment) where the error occurs.

sorry about that. Line 93

I have created a windows File watcher Service which works fine on Development PC but when i am trying to install and start in other PC , it throws an error
Windows could not start the {name of service} service on Local Computer. Error 1067: The process terminated unexpectedly.
Please help
|
|
|
|

Means there has been an exception that you did not handle, or that there was no work. Does the folder that you are watching exist? Does the service (that runs under different credentials than the user) have the correct rights to access that directory?
Open the services, locate yours, right-click and change the user under which it runs to your account.

I am new to UWP, so please forgive me!
I have been trying to implement a TCP Server \ Client, as outlined in the Microsoft example:
[^]
If I try this out on my local machine, it works fine (app generates server & client). If I then try on my remote machine (Minnowboard Turbot), I dont get a connection, or receive any data.
I have also tried (from both Local & Remote machine) connecting to a TCP Server program that I already have written. Whilst I get a connection to the server, I dont receive any data from the server (which is sending data every second).
Does anyone know what mistake I am making?
Thanks for any advice
Mike

Such problems are usually sourced by firewalls filtering out the data packets.
You must configure the local Windows firewall for the system running the server process to accept incoming packets on the listening port.
If the systems are not in the same subnet (local network), it may be also necessary to allow the same packets on the firewall of the server side (e.g. a router).

Hi Jochen, thanks for your help!
I have had a little more success. In the project capabilities, I just had Private Networks (Client & Server) ticked. I have now ticked Internet (Client & Server), and my test project is now able to send & receive data on both the local & remote machine (to itself (ie app is client & server)). If I create 2 projects - one server, one client and run one on the Local & one on the Remote, it can now connect, Send & Receive in either direction.
If I then try to connect my Client to my Original Server (written Visual studio C# 2010), I can connect from my Client and send data (from Client to Server). I DO NOT however receive any data from my Server to my client. This is the same for either the Local or Remote machines.
I have just fired up Wireshark, and this does see the Server Sent client.
My Client Code is this:
private async void CreateClient()
{
try
{
socket = new Windows.Networking.Sockets.StreamSocket();
Windows.Networking.HostName serverHost = new Windows.Networking.HostName("192.168.1.19");
string serverPort = "7001";
await socket.ConnectAsync(serverHost, serverPort);
Stream streamIn = socket.InputStream.AsStreamForRead();
streamIn.Flush();
StreamReader reader = new StreamReader(streamIn);
while (true)
{
string response = await reader.ReadLineAsync();
}
}
catch (Exception e)
{
}
}
Has anyone any suggestions?
Thanks
Mike

This is difficult to answer with the available information.
You did not show the code that is sending to the server.
So I can just guess that you are doing that before creating the input stream and the reader. Then the data from the server may have been received already and are discarded by calling Flush().
I can only suggest to try it this way:
Stream streamIn = socket.InputStream.AsStreamForRead();
StreamReader reader = new StreamReader(streamIn);
while (true)
{
string response = await reader.ReadLineAsync();
}
If this does not help you should debug the client code.

Ah, I have got it working!
What I have done is added a '\r' (or '\n') to the end of the string of data being sent from my Server program (written in VS2010 C#). The data is now seen by the Client when the app is run on BOTH the Local & Remote Machine.
I dont need to '\r' character when sending FROM Client TO Server for the server to see the data.
Don't know why my program worked with VS2010 (client & server), but now has to be modded, to work with VS2015 Client. Guess as it now works, I am not too bothered!
Thanks for your time & help!

Fine to know that you have finally solved the problem.
The reason is quite simple:
You are using ReadLineAsync which reads line by line (until a new line character is received). So you won't get anything if there is no new line character. Your server code uses probably a different (not text / line oriented) method.
