• averge joe Windows Form Controls and Threads

  Hey, I'm trying to pass a ListView (called lstCode) to a seperate thread. I'm not changing the listview in any way, I'm just using it like this: [code] private void tsbPlay_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) { macThread = new Thread(new ParameterizedThreadStart(ExecuteAll)); macThread.Start(this.lstCode); } private void ExecuteAll(object lst) { ListView list = (ListView)lst; foreach (ListViewItem node in list.Items) { Macro.Execute(node.Text); } } [/code] I get the usual "Cannot use because of cross-threading blah blah blah".

• AlexBB Detecting changes for "Save" and "Save As..." purposes

  I have a base abstract class that contains a generic dictionary. All of the derived concrete classes inherit this dictionary. The Value of the dictionary is of the base class Type. This is to allow adding/deleting of derived types. Ok, what I would like to do, is detect when changes have been made in the object model, so that I can implement a "Save" and "Save As..." method. What is available out there that allows me to do something like this I'm well aware that I can roll through the object model and compare properties. I was wondering if there was a standard shortcut to avoid having to do this. I have 100's of properties that I would have to check for... If you don't care for efficiency, and your clas ...Show All

• Petru66 Data structures in C#

My need is to construct a something like a code syntax tree. what would the embedded data structures in C# to use so as to ensure memory optimisation and run time efficiency currently, stacks/lists/ dictionaries are my choice of options. If any experienced C# developer would give me some sound advice, I would like to hear from you. Thanks well, i would love to avoid unnecessary data structures if need be. right now, the stack is there because of the nesting of the 'whiles' and the 'ifs' cos i need to traverse back to their root nodes in the stack to build onto the existing tree. well, if stack's pushing and popping wouldn't get in the way, ...Show All

• nadlerb100 how do we translate my connection string from VB to Csharp

  Hi, Just place an @ sign before the string. Or use \\ to specify a single slash. This is because C# strings could contain format strings example is \n for newline.

• CGuyArun Attributes

  I just wanted verification on this. If I use custom attributes to document bug fixes in my code, will that effect run-time performance [ BugFix("01/01/07", "Fixed problem with calculation...")] [BugFix("01/04/07", "Added error-handling....")] public void MyMethod() { ................ Dont' worry about it I'll figure it out myself, there has to be a way to though to enter in custom attributes for comments so that intellisense will include it in it's list, and then you wouldn't even have the problem of a larger assembly. I just think the idea of getting bug fixes through reflection is kind of cool, you could build a class browser like the one smalltalk uses that dis ...Show All

• Sanjoy Bhowal Disk Partition Free Space

  I am attempting to programatically retrieve the free space for all partitions on each disk in any given system. Using WMI, I have found a way to get the free space for logical drives within Windows but, I have found no way to get the free space for partitions that are hidden to Windows Explorer. For instance, dell PCs ship with a hidden partition that hold the restore image. This partition (and it free space) is visible in computer management (disk manager) but I can find nothing in WMI to retrieve this information. Is there a way using WMI or other means to retrieve this infomation in a C# windows app Thanks... if you are using .NET 2.0 you would be better in using the DriveInfo classes as it wou ...Show All

• thusinh How to get a page source code of URL programmatically?

  From a C# routine I need to go to a URL page and download the HTML source code of that page bypassing the browser. I then intent to analyze the code and extract another URL -- but I already know how to handle it. I prever to have this page in memory, as a string variable, not as a disk file--it is intended for a very temporary usage.

  Hi, I'm fairly new to c# and would like to check with the c# gurus out there... I need to to create a project that goes fairly in depth into the innards of dshow programming and I've been told that C# can go to some lengths that vb2005e cannot. Is this true I guess what I'm asking is can c# do all that vb2005e can and more To give you a simpler answer: C# allows unsafe code, whereas Visual Basic does not (and most probably never will). I gues that for using DirectShow, there are currently much that is not available for managed code, hence the idea of being able to go deeper into it if you are using C#.
