Hi, thanks for the reply.
I am not sure what does populating mean, but all I did was open a form, dragged the Drop Down List, Button, and Label to the form.
I added a few items to the DDL, via the "items" properties. They were all hard coded beforehand, so I would assume they are static.
I am just trying to get the label to show what was chosen by the click of the button.
Thanks

ok try to debug(F5) your application by putting debug point where you have written the code ...... and see dropdown list contains all the values
Assuming that you know how to debug and the code that you have written is in button click event
Thanks and Regards

Hello,
I'm new to C#, so please bear with me if the question is obvious and/or stupid.
I have a C# (.NET Framework 2.0) application that needs to call functions in an unmanaged C/C++ DLL. The name of the DLL is unknown at compile time (so I can't use the DllImportAttribute directly). The solution I adopted uses the native LoadLibrary/GetProcAddress combination, as seen in the code snippet below.
using System;
using System.Runtime.InteropServices;
namespace Simple
{
class DLLPlugin
{
[DllImport("kernel32", EntryPoint = "LoadLibrary")]
private static extern IntPtr LoadLibrary(string lpLibFileName);
[DllImport("kernel32", EntryPoint = "GetProcAddress", SetLastError = true)]
private static extern IntPtr GetProcAddress(IntPtr hModule, string lpProcName);
[DllImport("kernel32", EntryPoint = "FreeLibrary", SetLastError = true)]
private static extern bool FreeLibrary(IntPtr hModule);
public delegate void VoidVoidDelegate();
private VoidVoidDelegate RunDelegate;
private IntPtr moduleRef;
public DLLPlugin(string dllName)
{
moduleRef = LoadLibrary(dllName);
IntPtr pfn = GetProcAddress(moduleRef, "Run");
RunDelegate = (VoidVoidDelegate)
Marshal.GetDelegateForFunctionPointer(pfn, typeof(VoidVoidDelegate));
}
~DLLPlugin()
{
FreeLibrary(moduleRef);
}
public void Run()
{
RunDelegate();
}
}
}
In the code you'll see that I declared a delegate,
public delegate void VoidVoidDelegate();
private VoidVoidDelegate RunDelegate;
and then used it in the constructor to store the function I'm going to call in the DLL. In order to do that, I had to use the delegate type twice: once as a parameter for GetDelegateForFunctionPointer and then again to cast the return value.
Now, this example calls a function named Run that receives no arguments and returns nothing (void), as specified by the delegate signature.
Now, my problem is that I don't know this signature at compile time. Maybe the first time it runs, the Run function will receive two strings and return a bool. Or maybe it will receive a string, two bools, an int and return a double. Or maybe something else.
What I need is to supply the return and argument types, and then create at runtime the right kind of delegate to use. I would then use this delegate created at runtime to supply the correct signature to the GetDelegateForFunctionPointer method and to correctly cast the return value. Not to mention to call my function in the DLL, of course.
If someone has any suggestions, I'd greatly appreciate the help. Code examples as well to illustrate, since I'm not at all familiar with using Reflection.Emit (I'm assuming it's going to go that way?).

The code below should do what you want, but I have not tested it. The core code comes from here[^].
<br />
AssemblyName assembly = new AssemblyName();<br />
assembly.Version = new Version(1, 0, 0, 0);<br />
assembly.Name = "ReflectionEmitDelegateTest";<br />
<br />
AssemblyBuilder assemblyBuilder = AppDomain.CurrentDomain.DefineDynamicAssembly(assembly,<br />
AssemblyBuilderAccess.Run);<br />
<br />
ModuleBuilder modbuilder = assemblyBuilder.DefineDynamicModule("MyModule", true);<br />
<br />
TypeBuilder typeBuilder = modbuilder.DefineType("MyDelegateType",<br />
TypeAttributes.Class | TypeAttributes.Public | TypeAttributes.Sealed |<br />
TypeAttributes.AnsiClass | TypeAttributes.AutoClass,<br />
typeof(MulticastDelegate));<br />
<br />
ConstructorBuilder constructorBuilder = typeBuilder.DefineConstructor(MethodAttributes.RTSpecialName |<br />
MethodAttributes.HideBySig | MethodAttributes.Public,<br />
CallingConventions.Standard,<br />
new Type[] { typeof(object), typeof(System.IntPtr) });<br />
constructorBuilder.SetImplementationFlags(MethodImplAttributes.Runtime | MethodImplAttributes.Managed);<br />
<br />
Type[] paramTypes = new Type[2];<br />
paramTypes[0] = typeof(Int32);<br />
paramTypes[1] = typeof(String);<br />
<br />
MethodBuilder methodBuilder = typeBuilder.DefineMethod("Invoke",<br />
MethodAttributes.Public | MethodAttributes.HideBySig |<br />
MethodAttributes.NewSlot | MethodAttributes.Virtual,<br />
typeof(Int32),<br />
paramTypes);<br />
methodBuilder.SetImplementationFlags(MethodImplAttributes.Runtime | MethodImplAttributes.Managed);<br />
<br />
Type type = typeBuilder.CreateType();<br />
<br />
Delegate del = Marshal.GetDelegateForFunctionPointer(pfn, type);<br />
del.DynamicInvoke(1, "2");<br />
Take care,
Tom

Help!
I have been using the dotNet Framework to create an UPnP Control Point application, this application makes use of the Microsoft UPNPLib.
The problem I have is when I "Invoke an Action", because the UPnP device that I am invoking the action on is building up a big response that could take a while to be received by my application the action keeps timing out (at around 36 seconds) is there anyway to extend the timeout period?

Well there are probably libraries around that you can buy that will do this. There possibly code around for free, have you even tried searching? When you post here you should have atleast had a look around for something.
Assuming that you had searched I was fairly sure there wasn't going to be any free libraries which leaves you with the option of making your own ... which is why I gave the reply I did.

You can change your question after posting it, if you think you didn't make yourself clear the first time... No need to create a new question everytime.
Here's an article about a Diff engine you could use:

You will need a Timer control for this. There are lots of examples on Google.

I have an application in C# which should be installed on 10 machines.. I would like a way to make sure that they do not install on more than that. I would like to give them a way to activate each terminal. Since all terminals will be sharing a DataBase ,maybe we can have a verification process that asks them to input an activation code.Can any one help me regarding this?

If you don't mind spending the money you can use www.copyminder.com but if I were you I would request the names of the 10 computers and their IP Addresses that the application will be running on this way you can check if a computer is one of these 10 and if so allow the application to run otherwise not.
I know it's messy and probably not the best idea, but it will work.

Hi,
Which one gives better performance, checking a string against null & empty.
string s = "something";
for(int i=0; i<100; i++) {
if(s != null) {
if(s.Length > 0) {
}
}
}
or
for(int i=0; i<100; i++) {
if(!String.IsNullOrEmpty(s)) {
}
}
plz help,
nas

put it in a loop that will run a few hundred thousand times and use the System.Diagnostics.StopWatch[^].
It's a good idea to get used to testing things like this yourself ... it's quicker than asking on here, more reliable and you have more chance of getting an answer with some of the more obscure stuff (not that IsNullOrEmpty is obsucre).
|
|
|
|
|
But he doesn't want to do any of the work himself. He needs someone to do his homework form him.
|
|
|
|
|
Or use Reflector to check what String.isNullOrEmpty does:
public static bool IsNullOrEmpty(string value)
{
if (value != null)
{
return (value.Length == 0);
}
return true;
}
IsNullOrEmpty is therefore just a bit slower because there is a strack frame more present (for calling the method). But compared to the time you are using in writing that every time, I'd use IsNullOrEmpty 
-^-^-^-^-^-
no risk no funk ................... please vote ------>

|
|
|

Seriously, for the additional fractions of a microsecond that IsNullOrEmpty takes I wouldn't worry about it.
