Re: Calling a function by it's name which has been stored in a string

Thanks for the suggestion but unfortunately hardly any of my functions have the same signature!

The solution will work if there only a few signatures. You just need to create one WrapperDelegate for each type and add one executeFunction for each such WrapperDelegate.

Constructing Delegate from Object and Method ptr

Tristan Rhodes20-Apr-05 3:55

I'm trying to construct a delegate manualy, at runtime, from an object refference, and a pointer to a method's runtime handle. However, when i try and compile to code :

<br />
System.Windows.Forms.TreeViewEventHandler thing<br />
	= new System.Windows.Forms.TreeViewEventHandler(obj, ip);<br />

It throws an error message saying - "Method Name Expected"

How can I get around this?

regards

Cata

You cant do that. Pass object.MethodName. Else if that info is not available, use reflection to construct a delegate.

It seemst that VS.net doesn't like me running away on my own with delegates. So i just reflected it.

If anyone is interested - Here is the code (Exception Handling omitted for ease of reading):

<br />
		/// <summary><br />
		/// Invoke a delegate via reflection<br />
		/// </summary><br />
		/// <param name="delegateType">Type of the delegate to construct</param><br />
		/// <param name="obj">The object to construct the delegate from. (Can be null<br />
		/// for static methods)</param><br />
		/// <param name="method">The method on the object to use as a delegate</param><br />
		/// <returns>The constructed delegate, or null if there was an error in<br />
		/// instantiation.</returns><br />
		public static object InvokeDelegateViaReflection(Type delegateType, object obj, MethodInfo method)<br />
		{<br />
			//Locate constructor method<br />
			ConstructorInfo ci = delegateType.GetConstructors()[0];<br />
<br />
			//Construct arguments<br />
			object[] args = new object[]{@obj, method.MethodHandle.GetFunctionPointer()};<br />
<br />
			//Call constructor<br />
			object result = ci.Invoke(<br />
				BindingFlags.Public | BindingFlags.Static | BindingFlags.CreateInstance,<br />
				null,args,null);	<br />
<br />
			//return new delegate<br />
			return result;<br />
		}<br />

Hope that helps someone

Cool, I didnt actually suggested that Smile | :)

I was thing along the lines of Delegate.CreateDelegate(Type, Object, String) : Delegate, but you method is perhaps 'stricter' Smile | :)

Nobody mentioned a web site.

No one was able to help. This could be for a number of reasons.

1. No one here has experience of writing voice chatting programs

2. There are experienced people here, but the answer would be long and complex and most people don't have that much time.

3. Your request is too vague.

Questions that generate good answers are generally very specific and do not ask for a whole system.

Problem with .NET 2 Beta 2 (C# Express Beta 2)

Jucs20-Apr-05 3:31

20-Apr-05 3:31

I am using .NET Beta 2 now I have a big problem - all my apps exit after some minute without any comment. If I run them in debug mode, I get this in the output window:

The program '[5704] test.exe: Managed' has exited with code -1073741819 (0xc0000005).

Do you know what the problem could be?

Thanks Smile | :)

/Edit:

I know now that this occours if a remote machine disconnects "unnormally" from the application.

If I, for instance, connect to test.exe with some program and then kill the connecting program... then test.exe will disappear...

Problem with StreamReader.BaseStream.Position

AfzalHassen20-Apr-05 3:27

Hi,

Heres an example of what i am doing now...

line 01 RECORD 1 ,RECORD 2 ,RECORD 3
line 02 data,data,data
line 03 data, ,data
line 04 data,data,data
line 05 RECORD 4 ,RECORD 5 ,RECORD 6
line 06 data,data,data
line 07 data,data,data
line 08 ,data,
line 09 data, ,data
line 10 RECORD 4 ,RECORD 5 ,RECORD 6
line 11 data,data,data
line 12 data, ,data
line 13 data,data,data

I am iterating through the file line by line, because the data between the blocks of records are inconsistent, i'm using regular expresion to test for the begining of the next record so that i know what data to process. the problem is that the method that is making use of this piece of code is required to return only 1 record at any one time. i have managed to solve the 1 record at a time issue by keeping track of the records that were returned and then following a few other steps.

Because I'm testing for the beginning of the next record, the StreamReader will alwaus pass the point at which I need to be in order to read the next block of records that I need to process. i.e line
I have tried moving the position of the base stream to less than to where/what it currently is by doing the following..

_myFile.BaseStream.Position = _myFile.BaseStream.Position - _previousLineData.Length;
but this doesn't work Frown | :(

In addition, both overloads of the Peek() method of the StreamReader are of no use to me (since they only peek for characters without advancing the StreamReader) and i need to read the whole line to test the RegEx in order to determine whether i have reached the end of a block of records.

as can be seen by the generic sample of the file data above, the data in the file is not well organised and or managed.

any help/hints and advice will be much appreciated..

Thanks a million

Autocomplete/intellisence in a multiline edit box

Does anyone know how to do this? I'm trying to make a source code editing program and I would like intellisence/autocomplete intregrated into it. I have looked at the shell extensions example here and it will only work with the first word you type. The .net 2.0 Express beta only had auto complete for single lines (and only the first letter as well).

I just had an idea to put the currently typed(ing) word into a buffer and use autocomplete on that. Can anyone think of a better way?

local method variable or global class ?

CiNN20-Apr-05 1:25

CiNN

20-Apr-05 1:25

i was wondering if it's best to use a global variable or a local one which is each time allocated?

for exemple in a paint event
i would think it's better to create the brush and graphics handle before (eg in constructor)

but in exemple code i've seen them in the paint method so they are allocated each time a paint is occured...

Re: local method variable or global class ?

Enishi20-Apr-05 1:37

depends when and how much are u gonna use them.
If the brushes are only used in the paint event , just create them there and when u finish the paint just free them , that way ull gain more resources.
A local variable is only of use to those in the same method as she is.

A global variable will be usable by all the class, if u would use the brushes in 3 or 4 methods just create it global so ull create once.Normally gobal variables are used to control methods or handles like threads and such.

if u create the brushes global ull be using the memory al the time cause ull carry them along the class, if u create them local then ull create them and freeing the memory after u used them.

Usually the few global variables u use the better structured is the class.

Use Ctrl+Left/Right to switch messages, Ctrl+Up/Down to switch threads, Ctrl+Shift+Left/Right to switch pages.
