Determine How Many Milliseconds I Need To "Sleep" For In Order To "emulate" 2 Mhz Speed?
Oct 15, 2009
Is there a simple way to determine how many milliseconds I need to "Sleep" for in order to "emulate" a 2 mhz speed. In other words, I want to execute an instruction, call System.Threading.Thread.Sleep() function for an X amount of milliseconds in order to emulate 2 mhz. This doesn't need to be exact to the millisecond, but is there a ball park I can get? Some forumlate that divides the PC clock speed by the 2 mhz or something?
I want to have My.Settings.Delay in seconds not milliseconds adding the 000 for the user. I tried My.Settings.Delay + 0 + 0 + 0. but can't sort how to do this.
Private Sub Button2_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button2.Click Dim var As Integer Dim startVal As Integer
I click to textbox which have a string.How can i determine what character i clickd to it ? Example : That string is " I am Ann".I click coordinate contains "m" character. How can i know i click that character.
Currently I'm using System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(5000) to let my app pause/sleep for some time. This works great but I can't open my app anymore when it's sleeping and it uses about 25% of my CPU. I guess there must be a better way to do this. I also tried using a timer but that didn't work out to well for me..
How do i exactly check internet connection speed.I have searched around google and found out a method w/c will Download a file like 1mb size, then it will calculate the speed.
I have a codes that calculates DownLoad speed and UpLoad speed kb/s. I would like to implement this kind. I also want to put such kind of graph. Any article or links where can I start building my own like that.
is there anyway to sleep a thread for a "tick". i.e. the tick in StopWatch.ElapsedTick. right now the best i could achieve is this thread.sleep(1). i need it faster
I have an ASP.NET, VB.NET Date, and I'm trying to get the number of milliseconds since January 1st, 1970. I tried looking for a method in MSDN, but I couldn't find anything.
I'm working on a client application (server is out of my control) that connects to a server and exchanges query/command datagrams. 'Milliseconds Count!' according to my project specification, meaning that the more we can shave off a send/receive process the better.
I understand that there are physical limitations like network bandwidth, internet latency, etc. Even so, I have a strong gut feeling that a lot of the latency I'm seeing is directly related to processing; it seems 'out of phase' from the latency of other network operations (albeit with significantly smaller datagrams). IE: A standard 32 byte Windows Ping returns in about 5ms consistently, our query/response datagram (468 bytes out, 1500 bytes back) returns in about 15ms consistently.
I'm also working with multiple threads to speed things up as much as possible at the client side, and it seems the more threads are involved the more latency is generated (I've seen up to 70ms of additional lag when using 3 threads as opposed to 2). In a recent Google I found something that I only glanced at, that said something about a limitation in Windows System Timing where some claim was made that any System.TimeSpan < 10ms was effectively going to be a 10ms Timespan because the Windows System Clock only 'Ticks' every 10ms. I wasn't paying attention at the time, but now I'm afraid it might be relevant and I can't find it again.
Trying to setup a VB array (jagged array?) that has an entry for each rcd that contains the # of bytes in the data, as well the data. If it's possible how do you setup and loop through something like this is VB?
EX (1024 max bytes of data but it could vary): struct inpRcd { int rcdSize; byte data[MAX_RCD_BYTES]; } inpRcds[MAX_RCDS]
Visual Basic 6 had the Text Box Array that worked great.It no longer exists(in the same form) in either Visual Basic 20085 or 2010.I know that there are work-arounds that emulate the Text Box array but these are certainly not as easy to use as the version 6 Text Box Array.
In Visual Basic 2010 there is a tool box item that can be added, called Text Box Array. However, this does not place a Text Box on the form and I can't find any explanation of how to use it.what adding this to a form accomplishes and how to use it?
I can load web pages into VS 2008 and then examine each component. Is there a way to load a web page in a browser control but not make it "active" - in otherwords, If there is a field for "Search Term" anmd a button for "Search", I want the prog to diosplay the properties of those elements rather than taking action.
I have a combo box bound to a datasource. I need to change one combo box (of many) to order the items in descending order.I'm guessing I could order the collection in the dataset, but that will mean all my combo boxes will be reordered?
I have a databound Datagridview. The DGV is bound to a datatable of a strongly typed DataSet created using the wizard. Is there any way to re order the columns before displaying them eg: the Columns are displayed in the DGV in this other Col4, Col6, Col3, Col1,Col5, Col2
But I want to it to show as Col1, Col2, col3, Col4, Col5, Col6?
I realise that the display order followed the Column order in the database table and by extension, the datatable. I have re-arranged the columns in the Database but the Datatable still retains the old order.
I need to analyze a 100 x 100 image in less than a second I need to find out if the image contains any red pixels.I have an application that provides that functionality but it's not as fast as it needs to be.
I need to have a microsecond-timer in my program. The default VB timer doesn't work for me because I need to count time accurately. Does anyone know a way to count time in for example 0.1 milliseconds?
How do I convert milliseconds into a timestamp (date/time) since Jan 1 of the year 1? (Jan 1 Year 1. Not Jan 1 Year 1970) This timestamp hex code from a file:e1 27 17 6f e6 69 c0 which is 63,374,851,375,000,000 in decimal (milliseconds).I can't find any converter that can convert numbers based on Jan 1 Year 1.
I am pulling a single field from a SQL Server 2008 table and when performing the SELECT in Management Studio, the result shows as:
2011-08-03 17:46:36.997
Now, in my application I'm storing that returned result as a string and using it to later perform an INSERT using it. I notice that after INSERTing into the database, I can see it is being stored as:
2011-08-03 17:46:36.000
Appears to be stripping off the milliseconds and replacing it with 000. In my case, milliseconds are important (sequencing thing)
