Hello experienced people!!
I want to convert a data from text file to IList of X,Y,Z coordinates.
Actually i need to create topography in Autodesk Revit which needs Ilist of X,Y,Z coordinates. the text file which i am having i can manually directly feed into Revit and create topography as its X,Y,Z Coordinates. But using by c# coding in visual studio i need to convert it to Ilist of X,Y,Z coordinates to be ready as an input. Below is the text of my text file which is X,Y,Z separated by commas

Also i used this code line to access all lines of this text file as strings
List<string> lines = File.ReadAllLines(@"D:\My.txt").ToList();

The quick and dirty way is to loop over each line, do a string split using the comma and then convert the values from strings. Alternatively, you could use one of the many CSV libraries to read and parse the lines.

I am not sure the subject gives a clear indication of my problem/question.
I am building a set of applications based on a common database. In order to facilitate this I have a VB.NET project that handles all of the database connectivity and manages the tables.
One class in this project "Functionality" has methods for the actual database calls. The connection string is fixed in it.
The other classes in this project are for each table in the database for save, loadrecord, etc. Each of these classes instantiates the Functionality class to select/insert/update.
This project is compiled into a dll.
Other projects which include a stand-alone programme to deal with repetitive tasks and a desktop application, reference the DLL and instantiate the tables classes as required to obtain data, and change it.
Move forward and I now need the entire system to work with a second database. However the database is identical in structure. So the only change is the connectionstring. Obviously I can change this in the Functionality class, recompile the DLL. And recompile the applications and I have a version working with the new database. However, what I want is to be able to switch between the databases on the fly. And this is my problem.
I need someway for the Functionality class to be able know which Database (M or T or A or S) is required by the application that instantiated a table class that is using the Functionality class.
So, the Desktop application can have a Public Shared variable, but this can not be seen by the called method of the table class.
If you understand this, is there anyway of doing what I want?

Store the connection string in the application's configuration file, and have the "functionality" class read it from there.
Eg:
="1.0"="utf-8"
<configuration>
<connectionStrings>
<add
name="Functionality"
connectionString="........."
providerName="System.Data.SqlClient"
/>
</connectionStrings>
</configuration>
Private Shared Function CreateConnection() As SqlConnection
Dim connectionString As String = ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings("Functionality").ConnectionString
Return New SqlConnection(connectionString)
End Function If you need to access more than one database in a single application, you'll need to modify your classes so that you can pass in the connection string name somehow. You can still read the actual connection string from the configuration file.

Thanks for answering. However, it didn't answer the question it told me something I knew - which is why I had the problem.
What it did do is highlight that there isn't an answer, which is what I thought.

Use an "interface".
You can have a static that references an interface (of an object) that you set at runtime to your primary database class from the appropriate Dll (i.e. the "repository").
Windows, in a number of cases, has a "Current" static that references the "app", "main window", etc. The same holds true for your app if you "know" there can only be ONE active repository, or weigh scale, or whatever.
If you already have 2 "database" dlls, I assume there are 2 namespaces; the interface goes into a different namespace from the previous 2 for it to "work".
(and maybe it's just the "connection" component you put in a separate dll and interface (if you want it hard-coded); the rest of the db code can be in the same name space if it's shareable).

Thank you. Whilst I am not sure I would use an Interface to achieve what I need to do, you have helped me solve my problem.
Using Process I can see the main window's title from the instantiated class, because it is in the myprocess. As long as I have what I need there I can do it. It would be nice to be able to create a property on the process that I could see as easy to see it would be great.
Dim pReturn As Process
pReturn = Process.GetCurrentProcess()
cKey = (Left(pReturn.MainWindowTitle, 3)
All that is needed is a Select Case and I can change to the appropriate connection string for the company using the programme.
Thanks again.

I would not rely on the Main Window Title; any application can pretend to be your target.
If you can find the proces, then you can find the executable that is being executed. At that point, you can load that assembly and query its assembly-attributes.

I need to set this source code on my new project. You can see my project and give me the reviews about it.

What you are asking about is the Data Access Layer (DAL - use this for your Google Foo). There are many articles and examples about this available.
As Richard said pass in your connection string, remember you need to move from development DB to production DB at some time!

Yes, that would have been a route. But it isn't one I needed for this application.
What I didn't say is this is entirely an in house set of applications. Used to run this business. We have acquired another business and they too will run the applications - but against a different database, on the same server.
Writing something to pass the database name in to the class would have required hours of writing to change all times this class is instantiated.
Because it is in house I have hither to simply changed the CN string in the class before compiling everything to switch from test to production databases. The system is running, and being developed and new things are added - that is constant.

Presuming the application is a desktop solution, hopefully using click once deployment.
Your DAL should be included in each application project either as a DLL or a referenced project (I usually referenced the project to make debugging easier). EVERY database interaction should go through the DAL using the connection string supplied by the config file. You should only need to change the CN once for each deployment type (production/UAT/development) and this can be automated using compile directives.
A D Rosser wrote: Writing something to pass the database name in to the class would have required hours of writing to change all times this class is instantiated.
This makes me think each table class interacts directly with the database, a thoroughly nasty situation. Changing to use a DAL does not have to be a singular task, all new operations should use the DAL and put a junior on changing the existing classes.

Hello po.
Ito po yung current code ko. Please help po.
TIA
Dim dt As New DataTable()
dt.Columns.Add("Name")
dt.Columns.Add("Count")
Dim manpower1 As Integer
Dim present1 As Integer
For Each row As DataGridViewRow In manpower.Rows
dt.Rows.Add(row.Cells(1).Value)
Next
For Each row1 As DataGridViewRow In present.Rows
present1 = (row1.Cells(1).Value)
dt.Rows.Add(manpower1 - present1)
Next
For Each row2 As DataGridViewRow In manpower.Rows
dt.Rows.Add(manpower1 - present1)
Next
absent.DataSource = dt
|
|

|

You are adding 3 sets of rows to your datatable instead of just 1. Try something like:
For Int row = manpower.RowCount
manpower1 = manpower.Rows(row).Columns(1).Value
present1 = present.Rows(row).Columns(1).Value
dt.Rows.Add(manpower1 - present1)
Next
absent.DataSource = dt

I have method which was working fine with PDFs has started giving errors, I checked in TFS - I didn't find any changes in that part of the method, I am getting the error: System.IO.InvalidDataException: 'End of Central Directory record could not be found.', but the PDF is valid and other clients told me it has started throwing errors for the pdfs previously were working. Here is the code:
try
{
using (MemoryStream ms = new MemoryStream(fileData))
{
List<string> dangerous_files = new List<string>();
string msgModel = "ZIP: {zip} - ({file})";
using (ZipArchive archive = new ZipArchive(ms))
{
foreach (var entity in archive.Entries)
{
if (denyExtensions.Contains(entity.FullName.Split('.').LastOrDefault().ToLower()))
{
dangerous_files.Add(msgModel.Replace("{zip}", GetRidOfSlash(file.FileName)).Replace("{file}", entity.FullName));
}
}
if (dangerous_files.Count > 0)
{
Response.TrySkipIisCustomErrors = true; Response.StatusCode = 500;
return Json(new
{
error = errMsg,
code = "500.1",
files = dangerous_files
});
}
}
}
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
LogHandler.LogError(4203, "Zip file creation failed Upload - Picture", ex);
throw ex;
}
The place where I am getting the errors is at the following line:
using (ZipArchive archive = new ZipArchive(ms))
Any help would be very very helpful - thanks in advance.

Are you sure? As far as I know PDF files are not in zip archive format.

which one is use tuple or out varaible . which is best?
|
|
|
|
|
|
If one were "best", there's no reason to keep it around in the framework. You can also use tuples as out variables, which makes your question unclear to me. Can you give us two examples of what you are trying to compare?

I have a SharpGL.openGLControl control installed on a MDI ChildWindow in WinForms. Although the ChildWindow's border is sizable, it cannot be resized using the mouse as the mouse does not "catch" on the ChildWindow's border to extend them. If the SharpGL control is removed, then the ChildWindow's borders become sizable again.
Would anyone have a suggestion how to circumvent this ?
Thanks in advance for any suggestion.

Hi, I'm making a WinForms app with Entity Framework. I need the computers to connect to a same database so all have the same data. I think this could be achieved with connecting them via Ethernet cables and writing the server, database, user and password, so the connection string updates to the given server.
I don't know how could I achieve this. Could you please help me?
