Then use google[^] to search for articles. No one answered you last time, save myself since you actually didn't ask a question (just stated a purpose). There many be articles here on CodeProject as well.

It's definitley not a simple solution and requires a lot of understanding about parsing and graphics. There may be commercial libraries as well. Just search.

A colleague of mine tried to buil a SQL query parser/builder, and succeeded, as long as the queries were simple. As soon as you dive into nested queries, the nightmare begins. I think one of the reasons a lot of database servers are so expensive is probably because it took an enormous amount of time to create a fast enough query parser. And to make a query builder, in a puristic way of seeing things, would require understanding of how the resulting query would be parsed....

Hi,
Can anyone tell me about using DllImport in C# ? Why and How ?

Thanks in advance Smile | :)

The DllImport attribute is mainly used for P/Invoke calls (that is, calls to legacy functions, like Win32 API, old DLLs you've got lying about, etc.) There's loads of sites out there that will give you some useful examples (as well as how to deal with some of the gnarlier C-style structures you're sure to encounter), but here's a quick-and-dirty example:

namespace bob {

    public class GarbageClass {

    [DllImport("Kernel32.dll")]
    public static extern bool WriteProcessMemory( 
        IntPtr hProcess, IntPtr lpBaseAddress, 
        IntPtr lpBuffer, int nSize, 
        out int lpNumberOfBytesWritten );

....class omitted....
}
}

This is the declaration for the Windows API call

BOOL WriteProcessMemory( HANDLE hProcess, LPVOID lpBaseAddress,
    LPCVOID lpBuffer, SIZE_T nSize, SIZE_T* lpNumberOfBytesWritten)

Welcome to the world of P/Invoke Smile | :)

If you want to know more information than what Jeremy gave you, I suggest you thoroughly read the documentation.

Read Consuming Unmanaged DLL Functions[^] and Marshaling Data with Platform Invoke[^] in the .NET Framework SDK.

For information specific to the DllImportAttribute, you can read about that[^] in the class library documentation in the .NET Framework SDK.

Be sure you read about it. Just guessing leads to many problems, especially since when you marshal data between managed and unmanaged code, the bit-widths of data types must be the same (like an unmanaged LONG is actually a managed long (Int64)). Having experience with native code (i.e., C/C++) will definitely be helpful.

XML document as Resource File

hi
Is it possible to include an XML document in a Reource File?
If yes, pls help me with sample codes.

Re: XML document as Resource File

Anything can be an embedded resource. Add the XML document to your project, right-click and select Properties. In the PropertyGrid, change the Build Action to Embedded Resource.

Use Assembly.GetManifestResourceStream to pull it out. The root namespace of the project (in the project settings) plus any folders in which an emedded resource is located comprise it's "namespace" (as well as the default namespace for source files, though you can override this after the file is created).

When you're drawing your column, check the DataGrid.Right property. If it's less than your column's right side, then subtract the difference; if not, draw the whole column (cell, actually) as highlighted (or whatever you're doing).

Hi.
I have a side bar with a menu in an iframe, this sidebar is is very long (heigh). When I click on a button at the bottom of the menu, it reloads and gos up to the top. I want the srollbar to stay at the bottom when I click on this button.

Can I somehow use the (not) IsPostBack on the button? How can I do this?

Thanks!

For starters, this belongs in the ASP.NET forum. If you don't want the button to post back, however, then don't make it a server control. A simple button element with an onclick handler will do. If you need more information, ask in the appropriate forum.

You need some javascript function because each postback is a submit in your page. I was with this problem but with linkbutton and I solved it without js just by setting href="" and not href="#" like I did... but it was a linkbutton! Good luck!

just add a regular HTML button input type to the html, and don't rely on the designer to much...:

<br />
<input type="button" onclick="CallSomeJavaScriptFunctionHere()" /><br />

JS code (just googled for it...

<br />
function scrollToBottom() { <br />
         document.body.scrollTop = document.body.offsetHeight; <br />
      } <br />
<br />
      function checkIfScrollToBottomIsNeeded() { <br />
         scrollToBottomIsNeeded = ( document.body.scrollTop >= ( document.body.offsetHeight - ( window.innerHeight * 1.2 ) ) ); <br />
      } <br />
<br />
      function scrollToBottomIfNeeded() { <br />
         if( scrollToBottomIsNeeded ) <br />
            document.body.scrollTop = document.body.offsetHeight; <br />

The way i tend to do it is to get the constructor (usually the parameterless one) and call invoke on it using reflection..

<br />
Type t = ....<br />
<br />
ConstructorInfo constructor = t.GetConstructor(System.Type.EmptyTypes);<br />
<br />
object newObject = constructor.Invoke(null);<br />
