 lots of frustration and angst!!!
I have the answer for you...just solved it in my game I'm writing. Unfortunately my machine died last night (and is now on the curb for trash pickup) and the answer is sitting on my couch in the drive cage!!!
I had to tinker with things a bit but I did get it to work.
Ahhh I remember now....
private void myTextbox_Enter( object sender, MouseEventArgs args )
{
myTextBox.SelectAll();
}
That should do it for you. Darn inconsistant behaviour!!

Hi,
I'm starting a process with ProcessStartInfo, setting the 'Arguments' property to a filepath to the file I want to start the process with. However, the process I start is complaining about the filepath - since the filepath has spaces in it, it only seems to pass to the process the filepath upto the first space, and then ignores the rest. The process I'm trying to start is regsvr32.exe and the argument is a filepath to a dll I want to register. Could anyone please help me?
Thanks a lot,
Shehzad

Use quotes:
regsvr32 "C:\My folder\myLib.dll"
In parameters "\"C:\\My folder\\myLib.dll\"";
Best regards, Alexey.

Maybe it works if the Arguments string includes quotation marks:
startInfo.Arguments = "\"c:\My File.txt\"";

You skipped extra slash:
startInfo.Arguments = "\"c:\\My File.txt\"";
Best regards, Alexey.

Ups 
Thanks for the addition. Hopefully my silly fault didn't cost the questioner some valuable time.

Hey everybody!
I wrote the simplest member I could for a string:
<br />
public string title<br />
{<br />
get<br />
{<br />
return title;<br />
}<br />
set<br />
{<br />
title = value;<br />
}<br />
}<br />
the problem is that when I am trying to set this string with a value, I'm getting a StackOverFlow!
I debugged it, and the value contains the string, but for some reason it keeps on calling itself over and over till the stack is full.
any idea why it happens?!
Thanks in advance!

your setter is calling the setter...that is until it reaches the maximum stack size - hence the stack overflow.
Your private variable needs to have a different name (or casing) to the setter itself.

Howzit people,
I sit with a very interesting problem and I have the feeling that there is an easier way to do what I want to do. In short, I want to loop through the folders on my machine and build a treeview. Here is the code that I use to do it but it is really slow (Windows form with 2 treeviews named tvwSource and tvwDestination):
<br />
private void MainForm_Load(object sender, EventArgs e) {<br />
string path = System.Reflection.Assembly.GetCallingAssembly().Location;<br />
if (tvwSource.Nodes.Count == 0) {<br />
FillTree(ref tvwSource, path);<br />
}<br />
try {<br />
if (tvwDestination.Nodes.Count == 0) {<br />
foreach (TreeNode treeNode in tvwSource.Nodes) {<br />
tvwDestination.Nodes.Add((TreeNode)treeNode.Clone());<br />
}<br />
}<br />
} catch (Exception) {<br />
}<br />
}<br />
<br />
private void FillTree(ref TreeView bindingTree, string path) {<br />
TreeNode rootNode = bindingTree.Nodes.Add("", "My Computer", "mycomputer");<br />
foreach (DriveInfo driveInfo in DriveInfo.GetDrives()) {<br />
if (driveInfo.DriveType == DriveType.Fixed) {<br />
LoopFolders(driveInfo.RootDirectory, ref rootNode);<br />
}<br />
}<br />
try {<br />
bindingTree.SelectedNode = bindingTree.Nodes.Find(path, true)[0];<br />
} catch (IndexOutOfRangeException) {<br />
if (bindingTree.Nodes.Count > 0) {<br />
bindingTree.SelectedNode = bindingTree.Nodes[0];<br />
}<br />
}<br />
}<br />
<br />
private void LoopFolders(DirectoryInfo directoryInfo, ref TreeNode parentNode) {<br />
try {<br />
TreeNode subNode = parentNode.Nodes.Add(directoryInfo.Name);<br />
DirectoryInfo[] subDirectoryInfoArray = directoryInfo.GetDirectories();<br />
foreach (DirectoryInfo subDirectoryInfo in subDirectoryInfoArray) {<br />
if (0 == (subDirectoryInfo.Attributes & (FileAttributes.System | FileAttributes.Hidden | FileAttributes.Temporary))) {<br />
if (0 < (subDirectoryInfo.Attributes & FileAttributes.Directory)) {<br />
LoopFolders(subDirectoryInfo, ref subNode);<br />
}<br />
}<br />
}<br />
subDirectoryInfoArray = null;<br />
} catch (UnauthorizedAccessException) {<br />
} catch (IOException) {<br />
} finally {<br />
}<br />
}<br />
Does anyone know of a quicker way to loop through all the directories on the filesystem?
I used to be vain.... BUT now I'm perfect!

Hello,
I want to use WebBrowser control in my win application. I am using .Net 2.0 c# At that application I need to restrict user navigation in webbrowser control. For example I want to restrict some links in the site. Could you help me?
Thanks,

Use "Navigating" event:
<br />
private void OnNavigating(object sender, WebBrowserNavigatingEventArgs e)<br />
{<br />
if (e.Url.Host.Contains("skipped url"))<br />
{<br />
e.Cancel = true;<br />
}<br />
}<br />
Best regards, Alexey.

I tested it but it didnt work. And I prepared an extended web browser control and implemented startnavigate event.
Thanks alexey.
Now I will try to control pdf or doc activeX, restricting contex menu and rectricting short keys. I think I will need your help.

I have a problem with thread priorities, the scenario is shown as the following.
A thread of "Normal" priority(Thread-A) is running, and do AutoResetEvent.WaitOne() after it has started another thread of "Highest" priority (Thread-B). Thread-B will do AutoResetEvent.Set() in the middle of it process.
As I have imagined, Thread-A will not move on until Thread-B has finished completely.
But to my surprise, the Thread-A may soon move on if Thread-B does Set().
Why the thread with the highest priority won't finish before threads of low priority move on.
Thank you.

Thread priority gives you absolutely no control in which order threads are executed. It's just an indicator that if the processor is fully used that one thread gets more of it than another thread. It might even occur that a low priority thread can finish before a high priority thread just because it makes less calculations. So in your example it's correct behaviour that both threads run parallel - only that Thread-B gets a bit more cpu power. I would even go so far that on dual core processors (assuming no other threads/processes are running beside these two) that the priority would not have any effect at all.
If you want Thread-A to run after Thread-B has finished then Thread-B should call Set() at its very end and not somewhere in the middle.

I imagined that Windows will work in someway like the behavior of some embedded OS.
Well, it seems that I am wrong.
I will reconsider the constructure of program.
Thank you very much.

Well it is exactly the same behaviour as the process priority you can set via task manager. If you have a long cpu consuming process (like packing your C harddrive ) which you set to high you can still fire up Calc, calculate something and shut it down - all while a higher priority process is running paralell. Surely it will behave very slow but it still works.

I see.
Is there anything I should be careful with about the number of threads in a single process?You see, my process doesn't use ThreadPool. Instead, all the threads are invoked just by Thread.Start().

Even if priority defined the sequence of execution, you still are not guaranteed that the high-priority thread would come to completion after ending the process in the lower priority thread. The reason is that each thread is given a set amount of time to execute. Once that time expires the kernel moves onto the next thread, and so on. Priority defines how long a task will sit in the queue before it gets to run once again. That is why setting a thread to too high of a priority is dangerous. If you have a very tight loop in a thread running at the same level as the OS, you would remain up in the high-eschelon and run more than that OS would.
This gets even hairier if you are doing an interupt specific task (printing, IO, tcpip calls, etc.) since each time you do an interrupt, you get into an even different queue and have to wait for other tasks to complete as well as your interrupt driven task before you get to execute once again.
I suggest doing searches on OS Queue Theory to get a better understanding of queue management. This is OS 101 and operates like this, at a basic level, in any multi-threaded environment. There are entire schools of thread management to determine the most efficient queue management algorithms to make every task run transparent to the thread management while maintaining excellant performance on high priority threads.

Your reply is very helpful.
Thank you

You're welcome. IBM's Big Blue was the 'research project' for the queue technology in MVS. You may find researching the chess algorithms for finding the next move. This is the similar approach for determine 'which is the next thread' when processing multi-thread environment.

Hello,
I want to print directly to parallel port for fast writing (of-course when i use DMPs). I did following code but it generates an exception telling that it can't handle any device:
TextWriter sw = new StreamWriter("LPT1");<br />
sw.WriteLine("This is a test print!"); <br />
sw.Close();
Currently I have working version of it(VB6)
Open "LPT1" For Output As #1<br />
Print #1, "Bla,bla,bla...."<br />
Close #1
and C++
FILE *ptr = fopen("LPT1","w");<br />
fprintf(ptr,"Bla,bla,bla......");<br />
fclose(ptr);
How can I do that? Thanks in advance.
