if u mean to read and send data to ports there are numbers of ways.
for parallel port u can use outport and inport commands.
for serial port it is little more difficult. there are number of article in codeproject itself

how do i specify the build order of the projects in a solution? for example, if i have a deployment project in a solution, how do i make that build last, so the deployment project will include the latest versions of the assemblies?

The projects are built based on reference dependency. This is why you can't have circular references in your projects. You're deployment project should reference the projects on which it depends, and therefore will be built last.

Hi,
I'm new to the windows datagrid control. I'm trying to create an application that displays the contents on an access database. I've got that part working so far; my question is how can I have the datagrid & access database accept any changes that the user enters into the datagrid. Is their a way for the datagrid's contents to be dumped into the access database after a change is made? I don't want to do it manually, it could get messy.
Thanks

You have to take look at htese class:
Use a OleDbDataADapter to fill a DataSet and bind it to DataGrid, then each change reflected to datagrid, you can update access database with OleDBdDataAdapter.Update() method. If you search for these classes you can find samples in this site and MSDN.

Hi Mazy,
I have a datagrid in win form that when a change to a record on that same form occurs how can I get the datagrid to refresh with new updates?
I have the datagrid bound to a dataview. So some how need way to update the dataview I'm guessing.
Thanks,
JJ

I told you how to do this. The dataview only for VIEW, you bind it to datagrid and when something change in datagrid it reflected in dataview automaticly.

You don't need to do that, as I told you , yu made change in DataSet, then it AUTOMATICLLY it is reflected in your datagrid.

Thats my problem Mazy, I change some field that isn't in grid but on same form and it isn't bound. But it updates the same dataset. I click on Update button and changes to db are updated but grid doesn't update at all. I even tried refreshing grid to no avail !

The nature of daragrid is for binding to dataset and other than that is nor very well scenario. But if you want to update datagrid independently, you can do it like this:
datagrid[rowindex,columnindex] = value;

Mazy,
Your not understanding me. The datagrid is bound to dataview but a field outside of the datagrid isn't bound. I want to be able to put value into that field which updates the same dataset that the datagrid is attached to. So maybe my problem is I should be binding the fields outside of datagrid to same dataset? What do u think?
Thanks,
JJ

Yes,I really don't understand, no matter, forget it.

Its hard to say when I don't know your desin and requierment but the general rule that I always follow is, do not seprerate the datagrid from dataset and from other things that related to database. I bind everything that refer to database to dataview or dataset, then everythings work together so it prevent dirty code. thats all I can tell you.

See Mazy, I not one to bind to controls because I'm afraid of taking a proformance hit and doesn't it start to bloat the app if you bind?
Or has this gotten alot better since using VS 6?
Thanks,
JJ

Well don't think it cause a lot performance hit but I can't say for sure as long as I don't know anything about your codes and logic.

Hi,
Ok using Typed Datasets and using a table in that dataset that I am working on.
What do I use in order to find a particular row and be able to update db with row changes? Do I use a dataview thats tied to datatable and have it find it that way or is their something else in order to find a particular row?
Thanks,
JJ

You could. The point is you need to qualify the row somehow, which is usually done by an ID or by having the user select that row in a list, in which case the row is a simple numeric index.
Without understanding the context of what you are asking, it's hard to be more specific--for example, my question to you is, what information are you looking for in the dataset that makes you *need* to search for a row? With the DataView, you can use the RowFilter to qualify the DataSet, or you could have the query already formed with the appropriate "where" clause, or you could have an "update" SQL statement yourself with the appropriate "where" clause. Different answers for different situations.

With data binding, you don't even need to know what row because it's managed for you. Look at DataView.RowStateFilter as an example to view the data that's been modified.

If you want ONE row you can get it with Find() method of your DataSet, if it could be more than one row use Select() method. FinD method return a DataRow which you can change each column like this:
datarow["columnname"] = value;
and then call the Update() method of DataAdapter. Thats it, you do not need DataView cause it filter your table.
[EDITED]
This is the place of Find and Select methods:
DataSet.Tables[index].Rows.Find()/Select()
[/EDITED]

Thank you for your response guys.
I am using a dataset and needed to find a particular *one* Row.
And I was looking for the best way to go about it. I create a dataadapter with Typed dataset that brings back multiple recs.
Now with that scenario, I am trying to find a particular row to update in dataset. I do have the row Identified by a key and I don't want to create another dataadapter and dataset to get just the one row. So I need to find out the position of rec in dataset
so that I can update it. Make sense now? I think that Mazy's way sounds good. Use the find method.
Thanks Again,
JJ

Hi friends,
I am involved in project whose the development of base classes and architecture high level were under my team responsibility. After creating 80% of these
classes I am about to involve more developers in the process and I fall in problem that is me leaving a little preoccupied: These basic components won't be maintained
by production team and they will only have access to the binaries of these components.
The tools that I made some tests for assemblies obfuscation it doesn't allow me to protect such assemblies inside the team. I would like that the team have these assemblies
ALREADY protected, what would be the first level of safety against copy of intellectual property. My idea is that even if talented programmer gets to leave of company with the
sources that contain the business rules, the CORE it (basic classes, personalized controls, access rules for database and etc) of the thing he won't have access,
which, I belive, turns the sources "less attractive" because to create such components
of the zero it would take plenty time.
Does anybody already use some tool that allows something like that?
Does anybody have some idea on this?
Greetings,
Marcelo Palladino

1. You need to trust your team.
2. You are making the assumption that someone will act unethically at best, and illegally at worst. Another company hiring such a person, at least here in the US, can get in real hot water. There are employee agreements to prevent this, including the jokingly unenforceable "you can't work in a related industry for 5 years after termination" type of BS.
3. Is this something you really feel is necesary to spend time and effort worrying about?

It wasn't clear as to why you can't give the production team the obfuscated assemblies. How is obfuscation failing you in this instance?

Hi Marc,
Before anything: Thank you for trying to understand me. I am aware that my English is badly, I am trying to get better.

hum... To read your post made to think me of another point of view. Perhaps it is not, really... I will continue thinking about this.
Marc Clifton wrote:

I have like this a class (before obfuscation):
public class MyClass
{
}
After obfuscation:
public class 983276376jssdjh
{
}
Perhaps I am making something wrong, but this way, the assemblie becomes invalid for programming. The execution goes well, however.

Ah, you so you want the source code obfuscated?
It would be a little bit of work to add the automation, but what would happen if you took your obfuscated assembly, read it into Lutz Roeder's .NET Refelctor[^], and ran the "decompiler" function to emit the now obfuscated but still compileable assembly source?
But I'm confused about something--why supply the source and obfuscate things like the class name? Wouldn't that break other functions that reference that class? Or do you *want* people to use the obfuscated source?
No wait--you want to supply the internal source obfuscated, but there are certain "public" unobfuscated classes and methods that are the interface points? Is that it?
