Re: skipping access denied folders when using GetDirectories()

In XP SP2, I created a folder(c:\TestFolder) and "denied" all the permissions under security tab. GetDirectories method itself will throw exception. Control never came to try/catch. See my code:

DirectoryInfo dirInfo = new DirectoryInfo(@"C:\");
foreach (DirectoryInfo dir in dirInfo.GetDirectories("*.*", SearchOption.AllDirectories)) {
  try {
  }
  catch {
  }
}

That is new to me. I'll have to investigate.
And what is your solution?

Never faced this issue, so far. If I do, I would go for Linq. May be something along the lines of this[^] approach.

If it .Net 2.0, Linq bridge[^] might save me.

AFAIK there is no such option present. You will have to write your own method to do this.

Beep() does not work

I implemented some sort of Beep functionality to my Application, but I don't hear a sound:

[DllImport("kernel32.dll")]
        public static extern bool Beep(int Frequenz, int Dauer);

        
        public static void Alarm()
        {
            for (int i = 0; i < 3; i++)
            {
                Beep(500, 1000);
                Beep(1000, 1000);
            }
        }

        
        public static void Beep()
        {
            Beep(1000, 1000);           
        }

On my testform I click a Button to test this:

private void button6_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            //Program.testwindow();
            Program.Alarm();
        }

PC Speaker is ok, it beeps at startup. I am using Vista 64bit. Any suggestions?

Try adding a reference to the Microsoft.VisualBasic assembly and then, as if by magic, you can call:

Microsoft.VisualBasic.Interaction.Beep();

Can you tell what it is yet?

No need for the VB assembly, it's already there in System.Console class.

I'm not sure why it doesn't work for you - I'm sure I've used it before.

Quickie solution is to use Console.Beep

Console.Beep(440, 1000);

[Edit]I've just tried your code and it works perfectly, although I would use standard musical frequencies[^]. Person's with a sensitive musical disposition such as those with perfect or good relative pitch could find 500Hz/1KHz quite painful![/Edit]

You are not bothering to check the return value from the API. Can you check it to verify that the function succeeds?

Hi,

long time ago I started using this P/Invoke code:

/// <summary>
/// MessageBeep.
/// </summary>
/// <param name="type">Beep type:
/// 0x10 = "x" = HAND, ERROR, STOP = sound "Critical Stop"
/// 0x20 = "?" = QUESTION = sound "Question"
/// 0x30 = "!" = EXCLAMATION, WARNING = sound "Exclamation"
/// 0x40 = "i" = ASTERISK, INFORMATION = sound "Asterisk"
/// </param>
/// <returns></returns>
[DllImport("user32.dll")]
public static extern bool MessageBeep(int type);

Not sure I still have to do it this way though.
BTW: Make sure through Control Panel Sounds the right sounds are installed.

This is SQL query

if(select id from timemgmt where id=@id)=0
begin
insert values
end

but be aware from SQL Injections

mjawadkhatri wrote:
"insert into timemgmt values('" + textBox1.Text + "','" + label19.Text + "','" + label18.Text + "','" + label18.Text + "')";

and rename controls by giving more meaningfull names.

Good Morning onyang2

You have to be carefull with the names.

There is a GridView and a Datagrid.

is this a Windows App or a Web App ?

How to get listbox items to string?

Hi,

well you could iterate through the listbox-items and concat their text-properties. Just something like this:

StringBuilder oBuilder = new StringBuilder();
foreach(object oCurItem in myListbox.Items) {
  oBuilder.Append(oCurItem.ToString());
}
string sResult = oBuilder.ToString();

Let me know if this helps you.

StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
foreach (string s in listBox1.Items)
  sb.Append(s);
