C# - Question about events (also textbox clearing and starting/stopping a timer)

You can do locking to prevent threads from stepping on each other


class ThreadSafe
{
static readonly object _locker = new object();
static int _val1, _val2;
static void Go()
{
lock (_locker)
{
if (_val2 != 0) Console.WriteLine (_val1 / _val2);
_val2 = 0;
}
}
}

Here is a way to communicate between threads.


class TwoWaySignaling
    {
        static EventWaitHandle _ready = new AutoResetEvent(false);
        static EventWaitHandle _go = new AutoResetEvent(false);
        static readonly object _locker = new object();
        static string _message;
        static void Main()
        {
            new Thread(Work).Start();
            _ready.WaitOne(); // First wait until worker is ready
            lock (_locker) _message = "ooo";
            _go.Set(); // Tell worker to go
            _ready.WaitOne();
            lock (_locker) _message = "ahhh"; // Give the worker another message
            _go.Set();
            _ready.WaitOne();
            lock (_locker) _message = null; // Signal the worker to exit
            _go.Set();
        }
        static void Work()
        {
            while (true)
            {
                _ready.Set(); // Indicate that we're ready
                _go.WaitOne(); // Wait to be kicked off...
                lock (_locker)
                {
                    if (_message == null) return; // Gracefully exit
                    Console.WriteLine(_message);
                }
            }
        }
    }

How do make the texbox accept only numerics, del key and backspace?

I always prefer to do it via client side Javascript... It is faster than using code behind


<asp:TextBox ID="txtNumber" runat="server" onkeypress="AllowNumeric();" MaxLength="8"></asp:TextBox>

Choose the Javascript you prefer.


function isNumber(n) {
  return !isNaN(parseFloat(n)) && isFinite(n);
}
function AllowNumeric() {
  if ((event.keyCode > 47 && event.keyCode < 58) || (event.keyCode == 46) || (event.keyCode == 45)) {
    event.returnValue = true;
  }
  else {
    event.returnValue = false;
  }
}

Maybe the problem of Windows Form instead of Web Form;)

C# - Question about events (also textbox clearing and starting/stopping a timer)

Please use System.Windows.Form.Timer instead of the Timer you are referring, because the "Timer" of System.Timers.Timer is used Windows Service and it's based on thread, if you refer this directly, this will cause the problem of causing an error "A thread cannot access a control that isn't created by the thread itself".

Then in the Form_Load, please set the property——Enabled = true

Hi,

I edited my original post to add snippet of my current code.

C# - Question about events (also textbox clearing and starting/stopping a timer)

Hi all,

I basically have a System.Timers.Timer that is set to trigger an event every 10 seconds. In the event, I used textbox.Clear(); so that every time the event is triggered, the textbox clears. Unfortunately, this does not work. I also tried textbox.Text = ""; but it still does not work. The textbox is not clearing. Any idea why this happens?

In the beginning of the event, I also wrote this line: myTimer.Enabled = false; to temporarily stop the timer when the event starts. I also wrote this line: myTimer.Enabled = true; just before the event ends to start the timer again. Basically I don't want it to start/trigger the event again while the event is not yet finished executing. Is it okay to do this? or is there a better way to do this?

Please let me know. Thanks

How do make the texbox accept only numerics, del key and backspace?

hi friends,

is there away to make a textbox accept only numeric, del key and backspace key?

I used the following code but it doesn't work:

        {
            if ( char.IsDigit(e.KeyChar) == true || e.KeyChar == Convert.ToChar(Keys.Back) || e.KeyChar == Convert.ToChar(Keys.Delete) )
            {
                e.Handled = true;
            }
        }

Update to the database was only read the first value in program

Hai everyone, i have a problem, the program just read the first entered `Quantity` value in the program and apply it to all rows in database and the value of first and second row are same, even though in the beginning, first and second row value are different. First of all, my database is like this (Screenshot 1). The screenshot 1 until screenshot 5 are working properly, i just want to show you to not confuse you later. My problem is on screenshot 6 and 7.

Screenshot 1:

https://www.dropbox.com/s/5q8pyztqy7ejupy/Capture.PNG

And when i run the program and entered the first "Product Code" in first row and want to change the first `Quantity` value to 25, so i just enter 75 in `Quantity` in the program like the screenshot below (Screenshot 2):

Screenshot 2:

https://www.dropbox.com/s/wd9oz7wdi7s4l0k/Capture_1.PNG

And when i click update, the database changed to this (Screenshot 3):

Screenshot 3:

https://www.dropbox.com/s/9i0zc285netfrg3/Capture2.PNG

When i change the first "Product Code" in first row to second "Product Code" in first row and want to change the second `Quantity` value to 100, so i just enter 50 in `Quantity` in the program like the screenshot below (Screenshot 4):

And when i click update, the database changed to this (Screenshot 5):

I have been wondering, why it become like this?

Here is the code:


private void UpdateQuantity()
        {
            int codeValue = 0;
            int index = 0;

            List<int> integers = new List<int>();

            foreach (var tb in textBoxCodeContainer)
            {
                if (int.TryParse(tb.Text, out codeValue))
                {
                    integers.Add(codeValue);
                }
            }

            using (OleDbConnection conn = new OleDbConnection(connectionString))
            {
                conn.Open();
                string commandSelect = "SELECT [Quantity], [Description], [Price] FROM [Seranne] WHERE [Code] = @Code";
                string commandUpdate = "UPDATE [Seranne] SET [Quantity] = @Quantity WHERE [Code] IN(" + string.Join(", ", integers) + ")";

                using (OleDbCommand cmdSelect = new OleDbCommand(commandSelect, conn))
                using (OleDbCommand cmdUpdate = new OleDbCommand(commandUpdate, conn))
                {
                    cmdSelect.Parameters.Add("Code", System.Data.OleDb.OleDbType.Integer);
                    cmdSelect.Parameters["Code"].Value = this.textBoxCodeContainer[index].Text;

                    cmdUpdate.Parameters.Add("Quantity", System.Data.OleDb.OleDbType.Integer);

                    using (OleDbDataReader dReader = cmdSelect.ExecuteReader())
                    {
                        while (dReader.Read())
                        {
                            if (textBoxQuantityContainer[index].Value != 0)
                            {
                                newVal = Convert.ToInt32(dReader["Quantity"].ToString()) - textBoxQuantityContainer[index].Value;
                                cmdUpdate.Parameters["Quantity"].Value = newVal;
                                int numberOfRows = cmdUpdate.ExecuteNonQuery();
                            }
                        }

                        index += 1;

                        dReader.Close();
                    }
                }

                conn.Close();
            }
      }

Could you guys help me out? Thanks a bunch!

Update to the database was only read the first value in program

Ah, a continuation from your previous thread! But, I think I just figured it out.

Put your index += 1 statement inside the while loop instead of outside the while loop ... I don't know how I missed that one previously, but I'm pretty sure that's the cause.

Update to the database was only read the first value in program

That's not the cause miss, i already tried put the:


index += 1;

in the while loop, and the result still same.

Write the prime Number code which output like this?

exstud,

Welcome to here.

If you have codes most similar to mine, you can just add some words instead of copying my codes fully, if you think there's something wrong with my codes, you can just copy some sentences here and point out why this is wrong, maybe this is better;)

Write the prime Number code which output like this?

@MVP

I did forget to write some english, sorry for that.

The reason why your code is inefficient is because its complexity is linear to the size of the sqrt of the number to be checked, while my adapted version is linear to the size of the primes list.

A prime number is a number that always has a rest fraction when divided by any natural number < itself and > 1.

So say we're looking to see if x is prime, suppose there exists a number n with the properties n < x, n > 1, x % n = 0. Our x is not a prime, but what about n? If n is a prime it's all good (it's in the primes List<int>) but if it's not a prime that would mean there exists natural numbers r, s for which r > 1, r < n, n % r = 0, n = rs. Substituting that in the equation above gets us x % rs = 0 which implies x % r = 0 and x % s = 0. So in this case it would've been sufficient to check the rest fraction of x divided by the smaller numbers r and s instead of n, which completes the proof ;)

Also, sometimes a piece of code says more than a thousand words, if i were to really clean up your code (untested):



using System;
using System.Linq;
using System.Collections.Generic;

namespace Csharp
{
    public class MainTest
    {
        static List<int> primes = new List<int>();

        static bool IsPrime(int num)
        {
            return (from x in primes where num % x == 0 select x).Count() == 0;
        }

        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            Console.WriteLine("Please input a number：");
            int num = Convert.ToInt32(Console.ReadLine());
            Console.WriteLine("Results are:");
            int cnt = 1;
            while (primes.Count < num)
            {
                cnt++;
                if (!IsPrime(cnt))
                    continue;
                primes.Add(cnt);
                Console.WriteLine(cnt);
            }
        }
    }
}

have a good day

Write the prime Number code which output like this?

Exstud,

Very good! You think that a non-prime number can be always divided into several prime numbers multiplied together……

I'll mark yours as a purposed answer;)

Pass type as string variable

I was thinking something like


public class ValueProcessor : IValueProcessor
{
        public ClusterResource ClusterResource(string data)
    {
       //return something here
}
///////////////////.................

and


public interface IValueProcessor
{
   string ClusterResource(string data);
///////////////.....
}

And


private readonly IValueProcessor _valueProcessor;
public SwitchDemo(IValueProcessor valueProcessor)
{
    _valueProcessor = valueProcessor;
}

again this is untested

oraoledb.oracle not registered on local machine

Hello Guys

I have a C# application which runs fine on a 32 bit environment using a 32 bit client and having MSDAORA as the provider.

Now i need to migrate that to a 64 bit environment.

First question would be what oracle i need to install with what components? 32 bit or 64 bit oracle.

I installed the 32 bit client. I got the error OraOLEDB.oracle not registered on the local machine.

I tried registering the dll throught the regsvr32 command also have set the path variable.

IS there anything else i should be trying? or any solutions would be welcome thanks

OpenData Source Insert

Hi Priya,

With your requirement, we can specify the column lists in both of the insert sub phrase and the select sub phrase, for example:


insert into [TestServerTable] (col1,col2)
select col1,col2 from OPENDATASOURCE('SQLNCLI',
    'Data Source=LinkedServerName;Integrated Security=SSPI')
    .[DBname].[SchemaName].[DevServerTable]

In this way, the identity column will be filled with identity value manually, and status column will be filled with null (please make sure this column allows null, otherwise, please provide a default value for it).

After reading the above links the code makes better sense. i will continue digging in the links further more. Thanks

how to access an XAML control from code

Thank you looks nice.

how to access an XAML control from code

I of course changed the code because I want to experiment and learn, I get this problem that the WaypointList listview doesn't update when I try to edit one of the items. the adding and deleting part works perfectly.

basically what I did is create a class that will hold the data and then add waypoints using the class.

here is the code for only the edit part and the XAML. if needed other parts please let me know.

Thank you

XAML

--------------


 <ListView x:Name="WaypointList" ManipulationDelta="ListViewManipulationDelta"  Background="#33309501" BorderBrush="#FF309501" 
                  BorderThickness="2" ManipulationMode="All" Visibility="Collapsed" Header="Route addresses"  HorizontalAlignment="Right"
                  VerticalAlignment="Center">
           <ListView.ItemTemplate>
                <DataTemplate>
                    <StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal" Width="Auto">
                        <TextBlock Text="{Binding Path=ViaType}" FontWeight="Bold" Margin="10,0,0,0" FontSize="18" Foreground="Black" />
                        <TextBlock Text="{Binding Path=SimpleAddress}" Margin="20,0,0,0" FontWeight="Bold" FontSize="18" Foreground="Black"  />
                    </StackPanel>
                </DataTemplate>
            </ListView.ItemTemplate>
            <ListView.RenderTransform>
                <TranslateTransform />
            </ListView.RenderTransform>
        </ListView>

here is the edit part

-------------------------


private void Edit_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
        {
            var selectedIndex = WaypointList.SelectedIndex;
            NewItem.Text = WayPoints[selectedIndex].SimpleAddress;
            DialogButton.Content = "Change";
            EntryDialog.IsOpen = true;
            
            NewItem.Focus(FocusState.Programmatic);

        }

here is how I instantiate the class


 ObservableCollection<Viapoints> WayPoints;

        public MainPage()
        {            
            this.InitializeComponent();    
            WayPoints = new ObservableCollection<Viapoints>();
            WaypointList.ItemsSource = WayPoints;

        }

the edit is actually happening in the class but not in the listview

I hope it has some sense.

thank you

how to access an XAML control from code

I would use data binding to bind the Text property to a StaticResource that can be changed in the code behind.

1. Add a class with INotifyProperty change interface to act as the container for Units (This class could be useful for other places in your application as well.)


    public class ViewModel : INotifyPropertyChanged
    {
        private string units;
        public string Units
        {
            get { return units; }
            set
            {
                units = value;
                RaisePropertyChanged();
            }
        }

        public event PropertyChangedEventHandler PropertyChanged;
        private void RaisePropertyChanged([CallerMemberName] string caller = "")
        {
            if (PropertyChanged != null)
            {
                PropertyChanged(this, new PropertyChangedEventArgs(caller));
            }
        }
    }

2. Instantiate this class as a StaticResource in Page.Resources


    <Page.Resources>
        <local:ViewModel x:Key="myVM" />
    </Page.Resources>

3. Add the data binding to your TextBlock in the DataTemplate


<TextBlock Text="{Binding Units, Source={StaticResource myVM}}" Margin="5,0,0,0" />

4. In the code behind, access the Units like this:


            var vm = this.Resources["myVM"] as ViewModel;
            vm.Units = "km";

When you change vm.Units, the display will also change.

Consuming webservice in C#

You try do right-clicking on your project, then select Add Service Reference... The next, you enter web service URL and click Go.

Please let me know if any problem

Hope this will help you!!

Consuming webservice in C#

Hi,

Can you talk to anyone without any device e.g., cellphone,landline?

Between you and your client phone is the proxy via which you communicate. Similarly, is SOA, your own code will communicate with service via proxy object. It is mandatory.

Using SOAP UI tool you can generate wsdl and then using SvcUtil.exe you can generate proxy class.

Using export definition you can create wsdl.

Alternatively you can generate proxy directly by SvcUtil. But I prefer SOAP UI since it provides some more features.

One good question is equivalent to ten best answers.

Consuming webservice in C#

Hi all, Thank you all for the replies.

I ran svcutil. I got a proxy file generated, which i have attached here. Attached the WSDL file also. The webservice method name is wsadd. It takes 2 intergers and returns their Sum. In the attached Proxy file which class should i instantiate and which method should i invoke to invoke the webservice. Pls advice.

Thanks,

Sai

Consuming webservice in C#

I have never used no stinking srvcutil! :) You should be able to make the call in code like what was shown in the link provided.

Consuming webservice in C#

You would call

wsaddResponse wsadd(wsaddRequest request);

Something like


var req = new wsaddRequest();

req.i1 = 2;

req.i2 = 4;

var response = proxy.wsadd(req);

var results = response.Results;

C# Coding help

I am a novice when it comes to programming, but do have a slight understanding of how. I read a lot of C# books and patterns books, and I am stumped on how to perform something. So basically what I am trying to do, is I have a base class which has all properties and methods that I need. I then will have 1 to n child classes that will inherit the base class, these child classes will only contain some new properties, and will override a method in the base class.

I am not sure if I am going about it the wrong way or not, like I said I am a novice, but I am not sure what class will need to be created, so based on some patterns I created a factory class, that creates the proper class based on users choice. When I instantiate the classes I to them as the base class, and because I do this, I cannot access the properties in the child classes, and I am curious on how to go about doing it properly. Below is a code example, to give an understanding of what I mean, as I am obviously going about it the wrong way, or I am just missing something, but any help is greatly appreciated, in my learning experience.


namespace Test
{
  public enum ClassTypes
  {
    ChildClass,
    Default
  }

  public class BaseClass
  {
    public Int64 Id { get; set; }
    public string Details { get; set; }
    
    // Child classes will override this method
    public virtual void Save()
    {
      Console.WriteLine("Saving.....");
      Console.WriteLine("Id: {0} - Details: {1}", this.Id, this.Details);
    }
  }

  public class ChildClass : BaseClass
  {
    public string ExtraDetails { get; set; }

    public override void Save()
    {
      // Call base's save method
      base.Save();
      Console.WriteLine("Extra Details: {0}", this.ExtraDetails);
    }
  }

  // Factory Class to instansiate proper class
  public static class ClassFactory
  {
    public static BaseClass CreateClass(ClassTypes classType)
    {
      switch (classType)
      {
        case ClassType.ChildClass:
          return new ChildClass();
        default:
          return new BaseClass();
      }
    }
  }

  class Program
  {
    static void Main(string[] args)
    {
      BaseClass bc1 = ClassFactory.CreateClass(ClassTypes.Default);
      BaseClass bc2 = ClassFactory.CreateClass(ClassTypes.ChildClass);

      IList<BaseClass> list = new List<BaseClass>();

      bc1.Id = 1;
      bc.Details = "Testing Base Class";
      list.Add(bc1);

      bc2.Id = 2;
      bc2.Details = "Testing child class";
      // Can NOT access because type being BaseClass
      bc2.ExtraDetails = "Extended testing";
      list.Add(bc2);

      foreach (BaseClass bc list)
      {
        bc.Save();
      }

      Console.ReadLine();
    }
  }
}

I'm not sure exactly what you're asking - but you could use a generic method:


public static T CreateClass<T>() where T : BaseClass 
{

I think my problem is because I am a novice, and from reading so many things, I am over complicating things from over thinking. I couldn't get the generics to work, so instead I just create each class as is, so one BaseClas and one ChildClass, then add them to the generic list of type BaseClass and things seem to work as should, I am just unsure if this is the way to approach it or not, as I am sure it will become easier with experience. Thank you for your input Reed.

This is something C# only coders don't easily understand.

To achieve what you want, replace


// Can NOT access because type being BaseClass
bc2.ExtraDetails = "Extended testing";

by this


// CAN access despite type being BaseClass - if it is an instance of ChildClass
ChildClass cc = bc2 as ChildClass;
if (cc != null)
    cc.ExtraDetails = "Extended testing";

I'm assuming the BaseClass is not under your control, otherwise the code could be (and should be) easier.

The code is under my control, what I am trying to do, is I have a base class that I created with all of the properties and methods I need to work with it. Each child class will inherit, the base class to add some extra properties, depeneding on what the child class is for. The child class will override the base class Save method, which first it will call the base.Save(), to save all the inherited properties to the base table, and then the child class will save the extended properties to a different table.

I do not want all the data in one table as each child class has different information, so I would have a table with a lot of null values. I hope I am making since and looking at it correctly.

Reed's suggestion to use Generics for your ClassFactory should have helped you. You said you couldn't get it to work. Can you post the code you tried and where you ran into problems?

~~Bonnie Berent DeWitt [C# MVP]

http://geek-goddess-bonnie.blogspot.com

Type or namespace could not be found - missing directive /assembly reference?

What .NET framework is the example code of that book of yours expecting and does it comply with your coding environment. Check also, if your program is expecting a 32-bit assembly, whereas you've loaded the 64-bit version?

Usually, if a using directive is missing a reference that directive should be underscored by Intellisense with a curled red line. I guess you didn't see such a highlighting in your code?

Repeating value of the group in Header

Get and use MainWindowHandle for a hidden or minimized window

Many thanks for your kind advice. Much appreciated!

After some enjoyable code wrangling, I can now find the MainWindowHandle of almost any window. One case, however, still eludes me.

If the window I want the handle of is minimised when I start my program, the handle is zero. I can find the associated process of the window easily, but even after a process refresh, the handle is still zero.

If I manually (not programmatically) restore the window, I can find the handle. However, that requires an action on the part of the user, which is highly undesirable.

Interestingly, if I manually restore the window and then minimise it again before I try to find the handle, the handle is still zero.

Questions:

How do I find the handle of a window that is minimised and does not produce a handle on process refresh?

How can I programmatically restore a window from the process alone, not using the handle?

Many thanks for your advice.

Changing the button background color in the event handler with c#

Other than there not being a Color.Red (did you mean Colors .Red?) that works for me. (And other than hardcoding colors, but this is just test code. In production you'd pull the color from a resource and respect high contrast settings).

Can you provide more context? Do you have the button template or contented so that the background isn't visible?

You can change your code:

SQL 2005 SSRS - Date/Time question

I'm having a little trouble understanding what you're asking for? Say a user selects a start date of 08-23-2013 and an end date of 08-28-2013, are you looking for data between '08-23-2013 07:00' and '08-28-2013 07:00'?

If so how about something like:

SELECT Heat_Number, Heat_Idx, Furnace_Idx FROM HeatData

WHERE Turn_Date BETWEEN DATEADD(hh, 7, @Start_Date) AND DATEADD(hh, 7, @End_Date)

How to enable site collection feature by default when deploying a visual webpart from visual studio?

Hi,

I am making a visual web part in SP 2010 using visual studio 2010.

I want it so that when I add and deploy my wsp file, it should by default keep the site collection feature activated for the web part.

I will be deploying through powershell and central admin only on non-dev environment.

Is there a way to do this? Maybe add some special xml to the feature file?

Also I noticed that the first time I deployed it, it was not active, then I activated the feature. Then from that point, if I ever try to retract and remove, then add and deploy, the feature is activated by default. Can anyone explain whats going on here? I would expect the feature to be inactivated by default...

How to enable site collection feature by default when deploying a visual webpart from visual studio?

Hi,

You first part and second part of the questions are conflicting:)

In order to handle the activation of features while deploying your solution, you will have to play around with the feature properties and the project properties of your VS 2010 solution(Deployment Strategy property).

Found a link which perfectly suits your needs,

WinRT Cascading async Calls


private async void engine_SaveRequested(object sender, SaveRestoreEventArgs e)
        {
            await dispatcher.RunAsync(Windows.UI.Core.CoreDispatcherPriority.High, () =>
            {
                //create a Saved Game folder for saving all the games to app local folder or open existing folder
                var savedGameFolder = await ApplicationData.Current.LocalFolder.CreateFolderAsync("SavedGame", CreationCollisionOption.OpenIfExists);
                //set currently saved game folder name
                string gameFolderName = DateTime.Now.ToString("yyyy-MM-dd-hh-mm-ss") + ".save";
                //create folder for currently saved game in the SavedGame folder and append a integer value if file name exists 
                var currentGameFolder = await savedGameFolder.CreateFolderAsync(gameFolderName, CreationCollisionOption.GenerateUniqueName);
                //create currently saved game file in the currentGameFolder with the gameFolderName
                var savedGameFile = await currentGameFolder.CreateFileAsync(gameFolderName, CreationCollisionOption.ReplaceExisting);
                //open savedGameFile stream for writing
                var stream = await savedGameFile.OpenStreamForWriteAsync();
                e.Stream = stream;
            });
        }

The above code does not compile.

I've tried to work through it a number of ways, but a solution escapes me.

The point of the function (called from a non-UI task thread) is to do the steps as a transaction. Each step in order with a result so that e.Stream has a file Stream.

I can do this if I block the UI, but I don't want to block. I want it to just run through the statements as they are...I don't care if each statement is asynchronous as long as they run in order and don't end the engine_SaveRequested method until everything is done.

Help?
