Create a BinaryFormatter and serialize the object into the stream associated with the socket eg:
BinaryFormatter oFormatter = new BinaryFormatter();<br />
oFormatter.Serialize(oNetworkStream, (object)aStringArray);
and on the receiving end, just do the reverse
BinaryFormatter oFormatter = new BinaryFormatter();<br />
aStringArray = (string []) oFormatter.Deserialize(oNetworkStream)
I personally think, this is probably the most powerfull feature of .NET the serialization functions are excellent, they can save you a hell of a lot of effort.

Hi. I am using the System.DateTime.Parse command on a dateType, as I want it to be recognised as a date, however, I also want to display it. The problem is it contains the date and time, where I just want the date.
eg:
Displays: 21/09/2003 00:00:00
I want: 21/09/2003
Any ideas?

You can use two methods of the DateTime type to get the date only.
MyDate.ToLongDateString();
MyDate.ToShortDateString();
Of course, the format of the returned strings depends on your regional settings.

I need to make a new crystal report at runtime!
So I make new instance of crystal report wich has only title and datetime fileds.
So I need to add columns and datasource to it. But how I do not know!
is there any way how to add datafields to report?
there is only a method for setting datasource.
Can anyone help me out?
thanx a lot

You'll want to start by creating a data schema for your data source and adding this too your project. You can do this by either using datasource.WriteXmlSchema(<filename>) or by hand.
Once you have the schema in your project go into you report and right click anywhere on it and select Database->Add/Remove Database. You should see your dataset under Project data-> ADO .NET datasets. Now all of the tables and fields from that dataset should be added to the Field explorer in the report, go ahead and drag them on too the report.
Once you have laid out your report you can use the following code to assign the dataset too it:
MyReport oRpt = New MyReport
oRpt.SetDataSource(mydataset)
CrystalReportViewer1.DisplayGroupTree = False
CrystalReportViewer1.ShowGroupTreeButton = False
CrystalReportViewer1.ReportSource = oRpt

oops...forgot I was in the C# forum. The above code is in vb .net, if you need any help converting it, let me know.
|
|
|
|

No, the thing is that I do not know what kind of table I will use in advance. What I need is application that gets a dataset with one table that need to reported! So I do not know how to build a report from a scratch. I know how to set a datasource for report but how to add columns (fields) to it I do not know! Of course if it is possible at all.

hi,
i read an article by Christian Graus
http://www.codeproject.com/cs/media/displacementfilters.asp
in which, he showed how to do filter with C#.
in my case, i need to some analysis on image in order to do some segmentation, binarization stuffs.
i used Bitmap.GetPixel() to access the bitmap. however, it is extremely slow comparing Christian method using Bitmap.Scan0() to get the pointer of bitmap and go thro' the structure in system memory.
i want to know any method prevent using pointer in order to access bitmap in high speed?
i want to know any other method to speed up the process. and, i don't want to handle the structure of each different image format after employed pointer access.
thanks,
jim

Can't you build a wrapper arround the unsafe code? I mean create a class which does that.
I have done it, and if you say, I can paste the whole code here too... its MUCH faster then the Bitmap provided by .NET. Actually in .NET they have written a thin wrapper arround the old GDI so thats why it is too slow. Anyway, let me know if you want to get password.

Here is the code... Instead of making Bitmap object, make object of this class, constructors are more then enough
I claim that it VERY FAST as compared to GDI of .NET... the operation done by GDI in 9 seconds will be done in 3 seconds.. with same ease!
Don foget to compile with /unsafe switch...

thank you very much!

big thanks!

Also... please don look at the name space names... like Facer.Imaging.BitmapImage.FaceRImage.. okay?
Another thing, the SetPixelAtChecked is slow as compared to SetPixelAt... coz in checked, the bounds are checked and is good for test-your-algo purpose.
if you have any problem, just put it here I will answer it.
Also... a request, do let me know whether it helped you or not

hi,
your class is faster than framework's Bitmap class but i found that Christ's method still much much much faster...
i did greyscale for 1600x1200 image with 20s. but, christian's application used less than 1s .
just a little report. i will check the code to find the reason of this.

|
|
|

Yes, this is an old story... fight between ease of programmer and the performance. You get best possible speed when you write code in assembly. But you can't write big programs in it. Since machines are faster now, so we compromise performance on ease.
Anyway, thank for telling me
Good Day;

Hi there,
my problem is, that i have to create web references to 10 different servers (i only got there ip) at Runtime. On all of theses servers are running the same web services (i now the name of the provided services). How can i do that? Is there a class where i can create the wsdl, disco, etc. files or do i have to generate them manually?
If i can create the web references, how do the client knows, how to call the web services? (I can't use the "using"-statement, because at compilation the web references aren't created.
I appreciate any help you can give me
Thanks

Hi!
I've developed some c# app which uses some external libraries such as magic (docking manager) and crystal reports. The app works fine, so I wanted to create setup program for it. I've added msi setup project to my solution and pointed external merge modules such as crystal licensing etc. When I try to build my setup, there is an error thrown during msi file creation:
ERROR: Could not find file 'G:\DOCUME~1\hgs\USTAWI~1\Temp\VSDB.tmp\reportengine.A95D0BB4_0582_442D_B456_D295EAEB7628\Program Files\Common Files\Crystal Decisions\2.0\bin\crxf_html_res_en.dll' 'Interface is not registered.'
The file crxf* is included in msm files, so why the compiler needs it at external location?
When I decided to remove crystal libraries (for testing purposes), similar error was thrown on Magic.dll which is pointed directly in project references. When I've excluded all of dependent libraries, the error thrown was:
ERROR: Could not find file 'E:\praca\23.09\17.30\WindowsApplication21\obj\Release\WindowsApplication21.exe' ''Interface is not registered.'
WindowsApplication21.exe is my project output file.
What is going wrong?
Did I miss something?
thanks

Naive question 101: what is the easier method (not necesarily the most performant) to blit a System.Drawing.Image into a DirectDraw.Surface?
