Hello,
I am trying to implement a checkbox column in a datagrid that will provide the user the ability of checking certain rows that they want to perform some action on. Here is my problem. Originally, I just added a new row in my database called "Checked". This seemed to be working okay until I started trying to implement a "Select All" functionality. In order to do this, I have to loop through each row in my datatable and set the value for the "Checked" column to true. This takes forever because there are 13,000 rows in the table. My question is this: is there any way to add a column to a datagrid without having it bound to a column in the datatable? What other options are there for doing something like this?
I guess I could just use the regular select functionality of the datagrid, but this requires the user to hold down control to select multiple rows.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Blake

Hi,
I've got a class with an Options property. I'd like to implement this property in a way that a calling syntax like
MyClassInstance.Options = MyClass.Option1 | MyClass.Option2;
can be used. My questions with that:
1. How do I store these BitFlags internally?
2. How do I check for whether certain Bits have been set.
3. The above code shows how to switch 2 bits ON (hopefully, correct me if I'm wrong). How would the syntax look If I'd like to switch Option1 ON and Option2 OFF?
I'd highly appreceate a short example!
Thanks in advance.

Think of flags as good ol dipswitches , 32 of them numbered from 32 to 1. The integer value of a flagged value represents the indices of which flags are ON (or true)
4-bit example:
enum foo : 4bit
{
toggleA = 0001,
toggleB = 0010,
toggleC = 0100,
toggleD = 1000,
}
value1 = 0101 = (toggleC | toggleA) = (0100 | 0001)
value2 = 0100 = (toggleC & value1 ) = (0100 & 0101)
value3 = 0001 = (value2 ^ value1 ) = (0100 ^ 0101)

Define an enumeration with the [Flags] attribute, which I recommend you read about. See FlagsAttribute in the .NET Framework SDK. Do not define them as properties or fields of your class unless they're simply numbers, not complex types. Enumerations are best used, and are used throughout the .NET BCL, like the Anchor enumeration used for the Control.Anchor property, among many, many others. Here's an example:
[Flags]
public enum Options
{
None = 0,
Option1 = 1,
Option2 = 2,
Option3 = 4,
Option4 = 8,
Option5 = 16,
Option6 = 32,
Option7 = 64,
Option8 = 128
}Without the flags, you get a compiler error stating that you can't perform bitwise manipulation with your enumeration.
To check if an enumeration is present, you use bitwise operators which you can read about at http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en-us/csref/html/vclrfCSharpOperators.asp[^].
For example, if you want to check if your property contains Options.Option4, you could do:
if ((myClass1.Options & Options.Option4) != 0)
{
}Note that the naming guidelines instruct you to name enumerations without the FlagsAttribute as singular, while enumerations with the FlagsAttribute should be plural. This is because the former can only set one, while the latter can set multiple.
To "store" (assign) these in your class, define your property as your enumeration type:
public class MyClass
{
private Options options;
public Options Options
{
get { return this.options; }
set { this.options = value; }
}
}

Problem:
Grid shows several rows of data but all the cells are blank. I have a UserControl on a form that contains several grids. All the grids are populated using a DataTable. 
Populate the grids through properties of the UC from the parent form.
Resolution Research:
1. The grid shows the expected number of rows.
2. I pause the program on a double-click event to evaluate the content of the Datasource. I find the datasource contains the expected number of rows and the columns contain the expected data.
3. The color of the ForeColor was WindowText so I changed it to Black. Still blank.
4. Added a MessageBox.Show() on double-click to view the contents of the row cells (this is cell content, not DataRow content). The displayed data is the expected cell content.
5. Added a new grid but did not change a single property. Added a line to the property of one of the other grids setting the DataSource=value. Got same result with new grid! Rows show but cell content look blank.
Any ideas why the grids refuse to show the content of the cells?

This fragment of code seems to work OK:-
void reversebytes(ref byte[] bout,int count)
{
byte[] b = new byte[count];
int i;
for(i=0;i
|
|
|
|
|
|
My test to reproduce:
[Test]
public void TestOpPrecedence()
{
int i = 10;
int count = 15;
Assert.AreEqual(4, count - 1 - i);
Assert.AreEqual(4, count - i - 1);
Assert.AreEqual(10, i);
Assert.AreEqual(15, count);
byte[] bytes = new byte[5] { 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 };
Assert.AreEqual(4, bytes[count - 1 - i]);
Assert.AreEqual(4, bytes[(count - 1) - i]);
Assert.AreEqual(4, bytes[count - i - 1]);
}
It works for me.

Hi,
How to convert string to WideChars when calling a legacy dll from .Net?
Thanks.
|
|
|
|

You don't - strings are wide characters (Unicode) by default in .NET. You actually have to convert to ANSI when calling native functions on Windows (as opposed to Windows NT).
We have convered this countless times in the past, so I urge you both now and in the future to search first for previous similar questions. You can search this forum by clicking "Search comments" above.
For an introduction to marshaling strings with Platform Invoke (P/Invoke), read Marshaling Strings[^]. Basically, when you use the DllImportAttribute to P/Invoke native DLL entry points, or define a structure for use with a native function using the StructLayoutAttribute, you set the CharSet field that both have to CharSet.Ansi (default for P/Invoke) to call only ANSI functions (where native strings are declared as char*), CharSet.Unicode to call only Unicode functions (where native strings are declared as wchar_t*, almost always the case for OLE/COM), or CharSet.Auto when you want to call ANSI functions in Windows (i.e., Windows 9x/ME) and Unicode functions in Windows NT (i.e., Windows NT 4, Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows 2003, and "Longhorn", plus all future Windows platforms). Windows only supports ANSI (although there is a Unicode layer, but that's an extra install) and Windows NT typically supports both but it's better to use Unicode because it allows for a much larger character set and you don't have to mess with codepages.

I have recently created a form that gives the user the option of filling out certain information in either text fields, or as file attachments, or a combination of both.
The problem i am runninginto, is that if the user clicks the browse button and selects a file, then hits any of the other controls that do a postback, the selected file is lost.
I have tried using this.filefield.EnableViewState = true to see if that would keep, but it doesnt. i also have not been able to progromatically assign a value or a PostedFile.Filename. the page errors out and says that they are not "settable" (gotta love "msenglish")
if i could grab the information and pass it to a hidden field, or allow the viewstate to hold it, that would be great. My only other recourse is to make it so that selecting files to upload is the LAST thing that can be done before submission, but that is a pain in and of itself, and doesnt do doodily squat for the user if they have to go back and redo something before submission. they would have to start any files they wanted to upload all over again...

hi,
You can sumbit this question in our Asp.net discuson.
i can suggest one solution of this.
Try to set the value of AutoPostBack property to false.

Hi all! I have a wierd problem and I can´t understand why it happens.
I have a couple of html pages that I read from and write to.
When I read and write I use FileStream.ReadByte() and FileStream.WriteByte(). The problem I have is that when I view the file in IE after it is done, IE can not recognise the my swedish characters ( å,ä,ö ).
What really bothers me is that if I take the source of the page via IE and copy paste it into a textfile and give it the extension html there are no problems at all. There is absolutely no differences between the files that work and the ones that does not work, the content of the pages are the same, but still IE can read one and not the other.. 
There have to be some differences in some part of the not visible content of the files, but how do I resolve the problem? I need to save the files, and in my current implementation I would like to use stream.WriteByte() but I would also like to keep the swedish characters. Please advice..
/ Mikke

It is usually inappropriate to write text (html) at the byte level. This is because modern unicode strings do not have a simple 1 byte = 1 character mapping.
What is probably happening is that the file you are reading from is in one text encoding (e.g. UTF8), and the file you are writing to is in another (e.g. ASCII).
Just read and write strings, and you should be fine. It may help to educate yourself on text encodings first though.
One of the better articles on this subject is from Joel on Software.

Steven's right, but what you need to do is actually quite easy.
Wrap your FileStream (or whatever Stream derivative you're using) in a StreamReader or StreamWriter, which makes reading and writing text much easier. You can specify the encoding (like Encoding.Unicode, since you're probably dealing with Unicode characters on the 'net, or UTF8 which is most common (a multi-byte character set, or MBCS)) and with the <code>StreamReader you can set a parameter in the constructor that attempts to detect the encoding by detecting a byte-order mark (BOM).
For example:
using (FileStream file = File.Open("somefile.html", FileMode.Open))
{
string line = null;
using (StreamReader reader = new StreamReader(file, Encoding.UTF8, true))
{
line = reader.ReadLine();
}
}The using blocks make sure the streams are closed (i.e., the native file handles are released - very important or your performance is hampered, or - worse yet - you have memory leaks).
You should really read about the Encoding class in the .NET Framework SDK. You could still read and write bytes but you must understand that ANSI is a single-byte character set, and may use different code pages. ASCII characters use only 7 bits in the byte (the first 128 values). The last 128 values can be different depending on the codepage (local characters, or defined for particular systems). UTF8 can handle ASCII characters, but those latter characters actually tell the decoder to use 2 bytes to read the character, thus supporting Unicode as well. This is a great encoding to use on legacy systems, especially if you're not sure what a text file will contain (although a legacy decore might have problems). Unicode comes in many flavors, and you can read more on the web if you try a google search or click "Search comments" above for previous discussions we've had about this.

Hi,
Im writing a component for posting data to a webserver.
http://www.domainname.com/fire/incoming.asp?user=xxxx&pass=xxxx&amount
I tried using HttpWebrequest & Webclient to post data but it is returning an error
if i paste the url in the browser it is working properly
The code goes here
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
string User = "test3";
string Pass = "test3";
string amount = Server.UrlEncode(TextBox2.Text);
string MobileNumber = "91"+TextBox1.Text;
string postData = ("login="+User);
postData += ("&pass="+Pass);
postData += ("&amount="+amount);
string uriString = "http://www.domainname.com/fire/incoming.asp";
WebClient myWebClient = new WebClient();
myWebClient.Headers.Add("Content-Type","application/x-www-form-urlencoded");
byte[] byteArray = Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes(postData);
byte[] responseArray = myWebClient.UploadData(uriString,"POST",byteArray);
lblStatus.Text = Encoding.ASCII.GetString(responseArray);
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Can someone help .....
Thanks in advance

Hi all,
I would like to program in c# a graphical design tool like ms visio. I need the functionalities of component inserting, deleting, resizing, moving, component connecting and so on. Someone knows sample codes or tutorials?
Thx

I would say that is more of an OO thing than an algorithmic thing.
For example, you have two classes called DrawingSurface and Component.
DrawingSurface has a collection of Components
To Insert you instantiate a component (Component theComponent = new Component()) and add it to the DrawingSurface (DrawingSurface.Add(theComponent);)
To Delete to remove the component from the DrawingSurface (DrawingSurface.Remove(theComponent);)
To Resize you would have properties on the component like Width and Height. You might trigger an event on the setters of these properties that the DrawingSurface would handle to redraw the diagram.
To Move you would have position properties on the component like X and Y. And again in the setters you would probably fire off an event that the drawing surface uses to redraw the display.
And so on and so forth.
