I have started developing in vb.net 2008. I want to make a common module to validate all text boxes of my every win form. Common Validation I'm looking for are Length ( Size ) of text box value must not greater then that of field size, It must be of numeric, or alpha only, It must not be empty, if single quotation mark, covered with double quote mark etc.
Here is a complicated, but possibly dumb question concerning adding projects together in the IDE in order to increase performance and share memory at the same time.I have written two distinct exe's. The first exe (file processsor) operates using three timers to perform communication between a hardware OEM proprietary ComServer and file output from the second exe. The second exe (work generator) simply outputs files on hard disk so that the "file processor" can process the commands in the order given. The first exe was written as a "background processor" to the second exe in a stand-alone fashion. There is a need to communicate data between the first and second exe that is time sensitive. The ComServer called by the "file processor" only allows one port to for communication to the hardware device that is a USB. The "file processor" is capable of extracting the data required but the existing technologies, such as RPC, IPC are too slow and or full of pitfalls. Microsoft's Memory Manger has found it easier to create multiple instances of the proprietary ComServer and assign the needed memory to the calling routine so that it can "scoot" memory easily in the garbage collection feature of the operating system. What this does is cause the mullitple instances that are created to "gang up" on the device either slowing its performance down, or causing time outs. [The second process is a custom 3-D graphical CAD/CAM. The first process is a machine interface. Although hind-sight is 20-20, it seemed more ideal to write this background or file processor independantly, as then it could communicate with existing as well as a custom CAD/CAMs.]
Simply writing the first processes' code into the second slows down the second process as a result of all the timer interrupts looking for work to do. (Mouse is squirrely, screen refresh is slow, etc.) I am only guessing here that the operating system's service of the more complicated single memory location is somehow interrupted more frequently for a larger project, than two smaller independant projects running seperately. I only know what I observer here. Interestingly, the two smaller projects running seperately seem to run fine.
Now for the dumb question. Is it possible to merge the "file processor" with the "work generator" in the IDE such that each process runs as independantly as two distinct apps, but at the same time, make it possible to share memory via one Module1.vb? So far, I cannot find a way for the "file processor" to see the "work generator's" Module1.vb, regardless of how many PUBLIC statements I issue in the code. In other words, what would be the steps after File->Add-> Existing Project to cause the "file processor" project with a form to start first, then drop to the background, followed by launching of the "work generator" second where each process shares the same Module1.vb?.
If this could be done, say through a compiler statement, or whatever; then this could make the Memory Manger folks happy, and provide for the speed required to operate real world processes? Basic computer science suggests a simple processor LD instruction could make data available to any application within a few clock ticks. Microsoft now longer allows direct memory access, or the ability to carve out a "stay resident" dll in memory where a memory location can be called for quick distribution information to all apps with just one call to a device.
I've got 4 projects all running very similar multi-threading HTTPListener stuff.I wanted to make these functions common - in some module - but I'm having a hard time getting the AddressOf the "callback" passed in.This was the code in one of the 4 projects
Private Sub StartRequests(ByVal prefixes() As String) If Not System.Net.HttpListener.IsSupported Then DisplayInfo( _
I am trying to validate a textbox based on a dropdownlist, e.g. if ddl value is 'Day', textbox value cannot exceed 31. It seems that no matter what I enter triggers my custom validator error, what am I doing wrong,
<asp:TextBox ID="uitxtCamLastVisitDur" runat="server" CssClass="tooltip" Width="65px" Enabled="False" ToolTip="Indicates a required spending on the member's last visit."></asp:TextBox>
what is the common interface between textblock and textbox when it comes to dela with text stuf?
What I want to do is to create a procedure that accept a textbox or a textblock and change fonts stuff is there a common interface for them that dela with font stuff??
I am developing a VB net application with lots of TextBox. I need to call a module everytime any of the textbox gets focus. I dont want to write code in every textbox gotfocus event, but a generic code which will call the module everytime any textbox gets focus.
I'm at a complete loss here, its probably me being stupid and missing something simple but i don't appear to be able to update a testbox (CreditInfo) on Form1 from a module (SerialData). It doesn't give any errors, it just doesn't work. If i put a Button on Form1 to update the testbox(CreditInfo) it works... however i need it to be automatic.. Dave
I am writing a program that needs the user to input three numbers (i.e. sides of a triangle) and based upon those numbers tell the user if the numbers they enter represent a right triangle or not. how to go about this mathematically and care to offer any suggestions on the syntax of the calculations.
suppose I have a boolean function in my ValidationClass that checks user input for txtState (a textbox that contains the 2 letter abbreviation of a state), what should I put inside the if statement to activate Validation Summary displaying that user input for the state textbox is bad?
if isState(txtState.txt) = false then ' not sure what goes here... end if
I just have this program that validates if the selected file is an excel file, and I want this to have a separate function for validation so I can use that function to other program
I have a textbox which takes as input the email address. Do you have regular expression validator in vb.net so that I can check if '@' is present or not in the string
I want to use a validator to compare 2 text box in such a way that ,
If V is in Text box 1, means User must type any of the numbers prefix V in Textbox 2 (V00001 to V00050).Other than V ,if they type any other Letters means error message must be shown.
Just like that if C is in TextBox 1 means user must type C00001 in TextBox2.(or any number from C00001 TO C00050) iF S is in textbox 1 means,User must Type S00001(S00001 TO S00050)
I want to have a Windows application. It should take data input via RS-232 or via USB from a barcode scanner that reads 3 of 9 barcodes. The data received must be validated against a CSV file on the local harddisk and the result sent back to the scanner. I need this application including source. Does anyone know such a tool?
i would like to use a validator to validate that the dropdownlist is enabled and the dropdownlist value is "None".if this two conditions being meet,the validator will display error message.May I know what validator should I use?
I have a validation Summary I am using for the RequiredFieldValidators to use to show the error messages while an image shows up next to the controls being validated.I have set the required field validator to Display="Dynamic". When I select something in the dropdown it removes the image next to the control right away like I want but the errormessage text stays on the ValidatorSummary.What can I do to make the ValidatorSummary to update dynamically like the RequiredFieldValidator when it removes the image next to the dropdown?
I'm currently coding a ASP.NET web application using VB.NET. I'd like to know how to limit the input of the regular expression validator to numbers only (with specific number of digits e.g 7-20 digits).
I have three required field validator ,in that 2nd validator should not fire even if I don't enter any any value in the textbox. I tried with Javascript. But couldnt do it.
<%@ Page Language="VB" AutoEventWireup="true" CodeFile="Default.aspx.vb" Inherits="_Default" %> <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1//EN" "[URL]"> <html xmlns="[URL]"> <head runat="server"> <title>Untitled Page</title> <script language ="javascript" type ="text/javascript" > function step2() [Code] .....
I want to make sure using the custom expression validator that no ' or " can be used i tryed using [^"'] but whenever i put normal letters it doesnt work either.
<asp:CustomValidator ID="QuestionValidator" runat="server" ErrorMessage="Please select an option" ClientValidationFunction="QuestionValidator_ServerValidate" OnServerValidate="QuestionValidator_ServerValidate" ValidateEmptyText="true"></asp:CustomValidator>
I have a list of questions provided by a datalist, which I need to ensure a user selects an answer to each question. I then have my validation functions:
Protected Sub QuestionValidator_ServerValidate(ByVal source As Object, ByVal args As ServerValidateEventArgs) Dim SelectedItem As Boolean = False For Each c As Control In Page.Master.FindControl("form1").Controls If TypeOf c Is RadioButton Then
[code]....
When I run the page, there is no validation and no error message. Please can you point out where I am going wrong, I'm suspicious it is at Page.Master.FindControl("form1").Controls.I have previously done such validation by looping through controls via form1.controls but this is unavailable as the page uses a form passed down via the master page.
This should be a simple problem to fix, as it uses the same way I fixed my last problem with FooControl (below).
Basically, I want to add a derived validator I made to this composite control. It works fine but on postback it just disappears in the markup, making me think it's lost its ViewState.
I am probably doing something wrong with instantiating it, but I've tried setting only the ControlToValidate, moving things around, and nothing works.
I've provided some surrounding code to see what's working and then what's not.
Private FooControl As IFooControl Private Validator As MyValidator Protected Overrides Sub CreateChildControls()
First of all I'm trying to create a validator that checks to see that if both players have entered a nickname. If they don't then it should automatically close the form but instead the application hangs. If the first player uses three tries then it "should" automatically close. Here it is:
Sub getNickNames(ByVal Players() As String) erCount) 'Force Select Username. If More Than 3 Attempts Are Made The Game Will Exit To The Main Menu
Is there any way to make a RegularExpressionValidator render itself using display:block, instead of display:inline in its style attribute, when setting the Display property to "Display='Dynamic'"?
I have tried setting it in the stylesheet but this gets overwritten when it is rendered on the page.
