"process" can mean anything! What, EXACTLY, are you talking about?

My program read customer file consist of 9000 records. I process each record and it takes around 6 minutes to process those records, if I re-process this file again, it will take only 6 second to process same input file. It seems like XP operating system keep every thing in memory.

Hi I have some strings and for each one I would like to call a specific function.
eg.
bla -> func()
blah -> func2()
etc..

I know I could use a hashtable, except c# doesn't have an eval function (as far as I know). How could it be done? At the moment I've got a switch for this, but this must not be the fastest way.

Thanks

You should check into System.Reflection[^] namespace, in particular, look at the MethodInfo[^] class, it contains a method called Invoke[^] that will allow you to dynamically call a method based on it's name and some additional information.

Thanks very much, I've read a bit about it and come up with this code:

#region Using directives<br />
<br />
using System;<br />
using System.Collections.Generic;<br />
using System.Reflection;<br />
using System.Text;<br />
<br />
#endregion<br />
<br />
namespace ConsoleApplication1<br />
{<br />
    class Program<br />
    {<br />
        static void Main(string[] args)<br />
        {<br />
            Type t = typeof(Program);<br />
            object [] argsg = new object [] {100, 184};<br />
            t.InvokeMember("ComputeSum", BindingFlags.Default | BindingFlags.InvokeMethod<br />
                | BindingFlags.Static, null, null, argsg);<br />
        }<br />
        public static void ComputeSum(int num1, int num2)<br />
        {<br />
            Console.WriteLine(num1 + num2);<br />
            Console.ReadKey();<br />
            return;<br />
        }<br />
    }<br />
}<br />

Why does it generate a "MissingMethodException was unhandled" error?

Thanks again

ListView problem

I have a Object that inherits from ListViewItem. However, when a add this instance to the ListView, there is no text or whatever in it. If I add a SubItem, then the second column is populated but the first still not.
How can i display the value on my ListViewItem in the first column ?.

Thanks in advance Dead | X|

Well.. later

When you create your ListViewItem object, the string you pass as a parameter is what will be displayed in the first column.
For example

<br />
ListViewItem item = new ListViewItem("Text that will be displayed in the first column");<br />
item.SubItem.add("Text that will be displayed in the second column");<br />

Hope this helps

We can pass a ListViewItem to the items.add methods of the ListView, I can't pass a string since a need to put object into the listview. Sigh | :sigh:

lstServerExplorer.Items.Clear();<br />
			foreach( XmlNode node in xn)<br />
			{<br />
				strProvider = node.ChildNodes[0].InnerText.ToString();<br />
				strServer = node.ChildNodes[1].InnerText.ToString();<br />
				strDatabase = node.ChildNodes[2].InnerText.ToString();<br />
				strUser = node.ChildNodes[3].InnerText.ToString();<br />
				strPassword = node.ChildNodes[4].InnerText.ToString();<br />
				itm = new ConnectionItem(strProvider, strServer, strDatabase, strUser, strPassword);<br />
				lstServerExplorer.Items.Add(itm);<br />
			}

Where itm is an instance of a class that inherits from ListViewItem. Eek! | :eek:

Well.. later

I would say you should call the base ListViewItem constructor in the ConnectionItem consctuctor.

public ConnectionItem(strProvider, strServer, strDatabase, strUser, strPassword):base([whatever you want to display in your first column])

Hope this helps!

You helped me find the solution. I have used base.Text and it finnally work, thank you so much.;)

Traversing Sub Dirs

I have a small app that I run on the files in the directory (pulls strings out of .resx files). I want to add a param to that app to do the sub dirs. How can I get all .resx files from the sub directories given a root directory? My guess is to use the Directory.GetDirectories but I bet I have to do it recursively right? Simpler way of doing it?

Any code samples?

Thanks
Darren

That is the simpler way of doing it. Write a function that takes a path as a parameter. This function will process all the files in that path. Then, it gets the list of subdirectories in that path and, one-by-one, calls itself with the new paths from that list.

Hi,

i think the following method will be one option:

Divide the string with the substring-method into two pieces and use ToUpper() for the first part and ToLower() for the second one:

<br />
string s = "SOMETHING";<br />
s = s.Substring(0,1).ToUpper() + s.Substring(1, s.Length - 1).ToLower();<br />

Before you execute this, you must be sure that the string has at least one character.

Smile | :)

Hope, this helps you

THe class is Win32_LogonSession[^], but it only works on Windows XP or above. It won't work on Windows 2000/NT/9x.

[EDIT]
Oops! Forgot the second one, Win32_LoggedOnUser[^]. But the same restrictions apply, XP and above only.
