Hi there,
I would like to use a progress bar in my application. What i am looking for is a wakeup bar that goes from 0 to 100 and back to 0 again. I would like run it when the process is running so that user know that process is running. Appreciate any feedback.

You can use:
progressBar1.PerformLayout();
Or
Application.DoEvents()

Thanks Anthony,
Application.DoEvents() is what I was looking for. It did the trick.
Thanks again.

Hi,
Is it possible to tell the Visual Studio 2003 to not print the "The thread '<no name="">' (0x11c4) has exited with code 0 (0x0)." messages in the output window? And if yes, how?
Thanks
Roland

Hi D
this is the code:
[Browsable(true), Description("The filename for destination.")]
[EditorAttribute(typeof(System.Windows.Forms.Design.FileNameEditor), typeof(System.Drawing.Design.UITypeEditor))]
public string FileName
{
get {return _FileName;}
set {_FileName = Path.GetFileName(value);}
}
|
|
|

|

you can also create your own editor class.
1. create a new class and implement the openfiledialogeditor.
override the initialize methode (this methode have 1 parameter e.g. the
openfiledialog) now, in the methode you can set your own properties e.g title, filter ....
2. change the editorattribute in the property to your class
[Browsable(true), Description("The filename for the destination.")]
[EditorAttribute(typeof(MyNamespace.MyFileNameEditor), typeof(System.Drawing.Design.UITypeEditor))]
public string FileName
{
get {return _FileName;}
set {_FileName = Path.GetFileName(value);}
}

Is there anyway of creating a graphics object without using the following methods
1) Graphics g=e.Graphics;
2) Graphics g=this.CreateGraphics;
i an asking this because i want to create a graphics object in my own userdefined function
|

|

What is it that you are trying to do? What is the purpose for using a Graphics object? Answering these questions would give us a better idea of how to help you.

There are several static functions on the Graphics class. Which one to use depends on what you try to achieve.
Example:
Bitmap b = new Bitmap(100, 100);
using (Graphics g = Graphics.FromImage(b)){
g.FillRectangle(Brushes.Red, 10, 10, 20, 20);
}

Hi.
I have struct in C++:
struct MY_STRUCT
{
int x;
int y;
char** arrNames; //array of strings
}
I have function GetMyStruct, which gives me pointer to this struct, but
I can't get the array of strings (MY_STRUCT.arrNames).
MY_STRUCT* GetMyStruct();
In C# :
public struct MY_STRUCT
{
public int x;
public int y;
public string[] arrNames; //array of strings
}
public class MyWrapper
{
[DllImport("MyDll.dll")]
private static extern IntPtr GetMyStruct();
public static MY_STRUCT GetMyStructW()
{
IntPtr p = GetMyStruct();
return (MY_STRUCT) Marshal.PtrToStructure(p, typeof(MY_STRUCT));
}
}
BUT MyWrapper.GetMyStructW() doesn't work. Plllease help.

Try changing your c# struct to the following:
public struct MY_STRUCT<br />
{<br />
public int x;<br />
public int y;<br />
public System.IntPtr arrNames;<br />
}<br />
<br />
Your calling code looks like this:<br />
<br />
public class MyWrapper<br />
{<br />
[DllImport("MyDll.dll")]<br />
private static extern IntPtr GetMyStruct();<br />
<br />
public static MY_STRUCT GetMyStructW()<br />
{<br />
IntPtr p = GetMyStruct();<br />
IntPtr pArray;<br />
IntPtr pString;<br />
string[] strings;<br />
MY_STRUCT s;<br />
<br />
s = (MY_STRUCT)Marshal.PtrToStructure(p, typeof(MY_STRUCT));<br />
<br />
pArray = s.arrayNames;<br />
<br />
<br />
pString = Marshal.ReadIntPtr(pArray);<br />
<br />
while( pString != null )<br />
{<br />
strings[i] = Marshal.PtrToStringUni(pString);<br />
i++;<br />
pString = Marshal.ReadIntPtr(pArray);<br />
}<br />
<br />
return ( s );<br />
<br />
<br />
}<br />
}
I hope this helps.

Thanks. Finally it works

Hi once more,
I found out, that it works fine only if I have MY_STRUCT.arrNames 1 string!
When I have more than one, all strings in the result array are the same.
I guess the cycle
while( pString != null )
{
strings[i] = Marshal.PtrToStringUni(pString);
i++;
pString = Marshal.ReadIntPtr(pArray);
}
in Marshal.PtrToStringUni(pString) is reading still the same value MY_STRUCT.arrNames[0].
jurot

Try this:
while( pString != null )
{
int byteCount;
strings[i] = Marshal.PtrToStringUni( pString );
i++;
byteCount = System.Text.Encoding.UnicodeEncoding.GetByteCount(strings[i]));
pString = Marshal.ReadIntPtr( pArray, byteCount );
}
I hope this helps.
Andy

Thanx.

There is no built-in way for this. You will have to create your own custom DataGridColumnStyle and implement it yourself

At least I know where to go next! Thanx.

Hi there,
I need some help of changing extensions of files..
My code so far is:
<br />
string filename = Path.Combine(@"C:\Test.txt", @"C:\Test.txt");<br />
filename = Path.ChangeExtension(filename, "old");<br />
the filename variable does equal C:\Test.old but it never actual changes the extension in windows "explorer"...
i tried so many different ways but always get stuck with this problem..
Please help thanks
Best regards

The functions you are using are just helper functions for correct string manipulation.
You should use either
File.Move(filename, Path.ChangeExtension(filename, "old"));
or
new FileInfo(filename).MoveTo(Path.ChangeExtension(filename, "old"));
|
|

Thanks Robert,
this is the code i used and it works perfectly
<br />
string filename = lboxFiles.Items[x].ToString();<br />
new FileInfo(filename).MoveTo(Path.ChangeExtension(filename,cmbxRenExt.SelectedItem.ToString()));<br />
One question though,if i use the MoveTo isnt it bit slower than actually just renaming the extension because now it moves over replacing every file?
the reason im asking is because i have to scan and change over 500000 file extensions lol...
Thanks for ur help i really appreciate it...
Regards
GermanD

Move is intelligent. As long as you remain on the same drive Move is not really moving all bits of a file but is just changing an entry somewhere in the file system. It's like in Explorer. There you can also 'move' files between directories with nearly no time loss.
But 500000 will nevertheless take some time probably.
