why would you do this, in the application it self you can set the size properties and then in each restart of the application it will be at the same size of that you choosed
and also you can set it to sonstant size and set the FormBorderStyle property
to FixedSingle or Fixed3D to make no one has the ablity to change the size
while also when doing this you can make him has the ability to MAXIMIZE to the screen coordinates only

Check the Registry class.

As it was suggested, check the Registry class.
Just take into account that you have to store the restored position, as well as the state (maximized, minimized or restore.)
You have to save the restored position before the window is minimized or maximized, because when minimized it is moved off-screen. You can do this in the SizeChanging event.

Lets say that I want to send a jpg from one computer to another. The only way I've found to send files is to convert the data into a byte and then send it across a socket; however, when the file has data that can not be handled within a byte, the new file is corrupted.
So, how do you send a file to another computer if the file contains data outside of a byte?

What do you mean "not compatible with a byte"? When you convert the file (jpeg or other), you should be converting it to a byte array (byte[], not byte) using some form of serialization such as binary serialization (see BinaryFormatter class), then (most likely) writing the resulting byte array to a stream.
I've had no trouble serializing files and storing the resulting byte arrays in databases, transferring over sockets, etc.
Hope this helps.

Thanks for the tip. I'm working on serialization right now.

Yay. I just made a file go from serialization to byte[] form. Thank you so much, bro.

Heyas all,
I was hoping someone could give me a hand with a problem.
I have an external file that holds location information on a user defined amount of places (the user can add or remove locations that can be chosen from.) I was making the file format like so:
-name;address;cross_streets;last_visited
What I need to do is to randomly choose a location on an event. The information would then be shown in a read only textEdit but formatted differently with each attribute (name, address, etc.) being on it's own line.
So I was thinking that on program start to load each line of the file into some sort of collection.
Could anyone give me any clues or a push on how to go about doing something like this? Is there an easier way than to load it into a collection? Am I way off in my design?
Thanks,
John

There are many ways you could go about this, and no way to cover all the bases in a practical reply.
If you're not tied to the existing file format, you might consider using XML. If you're not tied to using the file system, you might consider using a database, etc.
Assuming you want to stick with the current system, then you should probably use a FileStream and some flavor of StreamReader to read individual lines from the file (assuming logical records are separated by Newline characters), then you could use the String.Split(char) method to get a string array of the elements on each line, and go from there.
A couple of the benefits of using XML are flexibility and readability. You'd potentially have a little easier time changing the data you're storing, allowing for nulls or empty values or whatever.
You might also want to consider creating a structure or a class to hold the individual data elements that comprise a location (name, address etc.) - you'll probably want a class as the size of your type is likely to exceed 16 bytes (best practices limit on struct sizes since they're allocated on the stack), and you may also choose to investigate implementing your own custom collection of location objects (see CollectionBase for ideas).
Hope this is sufficient to get you started.

You can use a graphics path to make irregularly shaped forms. You can turn off the control boxes (minimize, maximize, close), and set your form's background to be an image or a different color, or partially transparent, and so on. Is that what you're looking for?

You can make the formBorderStyle to None to do your own close and minimize btns and also make the form shaped by the this.Region = new Region(your graphics path);

Hello all
I was under the impression that if I make a call into a static function which uses the value of a static class variable, if I recall the function later the value of the static class variable would reset back to the default coded value.
Now as the following example prooves I am obviously wrong.
I have a test application/dll that has the following code :
StaticLib.dll
using System;
namespace StaticLib
{
public class MyStaticLib
{
private static int val = 0;
public static int GetNumber()
{
return val++;
}
}
}
Console Application (which references StaticLib.dll)
using System;
using StaticLib;
using System.Threading;
namespace StaticTest
{
class Class1
{
[STAThread]
static void Main(string[] args)
{
while(true)
{
Console.WriteLine(MyStaticLib.GetNumber());
Thread.Sleep(1000);
}
}
}
}
When I ran this for the first time I expected to get the following output
0
0
0
0
0
0
But I actually get
1
2
3
4
5
6
7
Could anybody explain why this is?
post.mode = postmodes.signature;
SELECT everything FROM everywhere WHERE something = something_else;

That is not correct. The value will not reset unless you have code to explicitly reset it.
MrEyes wrote:

That is the correct behaviour. A static is a value that exists for all instances of the class. If some code modifies it then all instances of the class (and any static methods/properties) see the modification.
Some people think of a static that is a global value within the class.
Does this help?

This behavious is correct. Static variable has lifetime of global variable but it has a scope of local variable. Hence the value of static variable persists across multiple calls to the function.
Unlike nonstatic members where each instance of object has its own copy of variables, the static variable is shared across all instances i.e. only one copy od static variable is available across all instances of objects.

Hi,
I want to locate the listViewItem when the mouse is dragged over the
listViewItems in a listView. I try to locate which listViewItem is dragged over by the mouse by using the listView.getItemAt(e.X,e.Y) in the dragOver handler, but it can't return the listViewItem located by the mouse(it can return the right x, y of the mouse location)?
Why ?
Many thanks

Because the GetItemAt method looks at a coordinate local to the control, not the screen (i.e. Point(0, 0) to the control is the upper left corner of the list view, whereas Point(0, 0) to the cursor is the upper left corner of the screen).
Here's some example code that should work for you:
Point localCoordinate = listView.PointToClient(MousePosition);
listView.GetItemAt(localCoordinate.X, localCoordinate.Y);

I have a routine which reads a header record from a file, that header record tells how many subsequent records to read, each record having another header which says how long that record is in bytes.
Is it more efficient to allocate an array of (say) 10,000 bytes at the beginning of the loop which process the records then use:
BinaryReader.Read(buffer,0,reclength);
or is it better to just allocate the bytes required on the fly:
byte[] buffer = BinaryReader.ReadBytes(recLength);
For this example the recLength will never exceed 10,000 but could be anything between 1 and 10,000 - the loop can require between 40 and 200 iterations.

Especially since this is C#, I would code whichever method is easiest for you and then only worry about it if there is an actual performance problem.
When you get to that point, creating one large buffer will typically go on the large object heap and requires more memory at one time, which might be faster on a single user system with few memory constraints.
Your second approach will use more memory during processing, however it will give the garbage collector a chance to collect already processed buffers.
A third approach is to use the stream directly, one pre-allocated buffer and read the data from the stream into the buffer without any allocations in your loop. This is more difficult especially if the records are not fixed size, but will typically perform the best of all the options since there is no allocation in the loop.
However, your loop needs to be driving an efficient processing operation for optimizing reading to make sense. If you are just creating an array of record objects in your loop for example, these changes won't make much of a difference.

Hi,
For developing interop dll in developer's pc, GacUtil and RegAsm is used in dos command prompt environment. But for deploying the dll in customer computers, what should be done ?
Many thanks
|
|
|
|

Use your installer program to call gacutil and regasm on your interop files. As long as the end user has .NET runtime installed, they'll have gacutil and regasm.

Use a Windows Installer-compatible installer, such as the Visual Studio deployment project. Instruct the installer to register the assembly and to place it in the GAC.
If you use a Visual Studio deployment project, you can do this by going to the File System view, then right-click in the left-hand pane and choose Add Special Folder > Global Assembly Cache Folder. Drop your assembly into this folder. To register, select the assembly in Solution Explorer or the File System view, then in Properties, set "Register" to "vsdraCOM".

hi frds
i m facing problem tht how to get mac address of my system and how can i restrict a packet to use a specific NiC for communication (programmatically)when making my own packet for checking network statistics ............
if any body can plz guide me some soltution
waitng auxiously
bye

look if you want to deal with device and get what ever info you want. most network devices implements SNMP protocol which allow you to query and gets device info.
SNMP is application layer protocol. so to know device mac address you must implement SNMP class whith your hand which produce an array of bytes whith spesific values that represent SNMP header and your request.then send this array in udp message to device you want to know it's MAC. and when you get response from udp socket which you send msg from. you must get MAC back from the recieved array of bytes
