• Visual C# Passing a method to a method?

  I'm trying to abstract my code and I noticed a pattern. I'm sure that this can be done, but have no idea where to start looking for an answer: Say I have the following method: private static void ArrayLengthTest() { if (al.Count > 0) ReserveMedia(); else { NoRecordsMessage(); Console.ReadKey(); Console.Clear(); CreateMainMenu(); } } How would I cleanly pass ReserveMedia() or any other method name I know I could create some switch logic and pass an option, but that would be really klugy. Any ideas/hints would be appreciated. TIA - AbeR You can pass methods as delegates. You'll have to define a delegate type that defines the method's signature. Then, define a method that takes of ...Show All

  plezzzz how update data in dtagridview but i use dataview to filterdata and binding dataview with dataGridview control , so how can i update these filtered data in datagridview depends how you are retrieving data. if you are using a TableAdapter then be sure you told the wizard to generate the SQL commands and/or create the update/insert/delete commands.

• Software Development for Windows Vista Workflow Designer in WPF

  Hi, I didn't see nothing about... Is possible build a workflow designer using WPF to run in an ASP.NET application Thank you. Daniel Oliveira www.NetFxLive.com does not use our WorkflowView Designer Control. This is a JavaScript code which imitates the WorkflowView. So Yes - You can do exactly the same in WPF. - But then you wont be using any of the Windows Workflow assemblies for designing the WF. You can also re-host the WorkflowView Control (from System.Workflow.ComponentModel.dll) inside IE, but then you would have to give a full trust to the web page/site using caspol. Hope this helps!

• Visual Basic Process not completing

  I have a vb form that runs a command line executable that creates a diff file from two existing files. When I run the program from the command line it creates a 419Mb diff file. When I run it as a process from my VB program it gets to ~400 Mb and stops. If I kill the VB program the command line executable continues to run and finishes the diff file. So I have 2 questions. Why does the process stop before for it finishes when I run it inside vb Why does the program continue to run when I kill the VB app. Here is my code Private Sub xdelta( ByVal strFile1, ByVal strFile2, ByVal strDelta) Dim strError As String Dim p As New Process Dim info As New ProcessStartInfo info.UseShellExecute = False ...Show All

• SQL Server What to use in place of MS Access to view SQL Server tables?

  Our business application is running SQL Server in a remote data center and we had been using MS Access from a local PC to occasionally fix data problems in the data base. As the tables continue to grow, it's painfully obvious MS Access just can't handle the volume of data. One of our tables we need to get into is about 200,000 rows, another is over 100,000 rows. We need to be able to change individual rows, and perform search and replace commands across one or more columns in select tables. What software can we install on local desktops to allow viewing and editing of SQL table data MS Excel would probably be worse than Access - I seem to remember a 65000 row limit in Excel when importing large .csv ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. BoundingBox for Models

  Hi, I'm very much used to using Geometry.ComputeBoundingBox() from MDX 1.1 and am wondering where the equivalent in XNA is. My problem at the moment is that my models are having their centres placed at Y coordinate 0, so half is above ground and half is below ground. My solution has always been to compute the bounding box and simply raise the mesh by the amount that the min vertex is below the ground. (So minVertex.Y = 0). The BoundingBox has a constructor that takes a List of Vector3s, but this would presumably mean iterating over every ModelMesh in a Model, reading out the Vertex data from the VertexBuffer and extracting the x,y,z values for each vertex... this seems rather long winded I've seen a lot of people talking about ...Show All
