Has anyone found a way to view it numerically?Im sure that for a multithreaded program that a seperate user stack is maintained for each thread?Inevtably. there will be the dunderhead who asks what I am doing. Im in the last stages of developing a multithreaded filescanning program. The program uses a fairly tight loop.
This method will only verify the file's extension, not its actual type. Once I receive the file, I want to examine its contents to determine what it really is, in this case image only.
I'm working on a project that requires that I programmatically examine the ServiceAccount of all services installed on a machine (regardless of status) to determine Logon Type which will be used as an indicator of which passwords need to be changed on a machine for maintaining security.
If possible I would like to keep the entire project in VB.Net and Ive been looking through the API to find namespaces that contain classes to allow me to do this. Ive come across System.ServiceProcess which does allow me to get quite a bit of information about services installed, but I cant seem to find a way to get the Logon Type (I would guess that it would be returned as a System.ServiceProcess.ServiceAccount object).Ive also tried System.Management using ManagementObjectSearcher and ManagementObject, but Im not sure if theres a way to get that information with a WQL statement (I know next to nothing about WQL, unfortunately).
I am using ExecuteReader commands to read records in large external databases. Part of my program logic requires that a condition of the database be examined without reading another record - for instance, I want to know if the database has reached the end without reading an additional record.
I need to get data from a web application. I dont have access to database or the source of the app(.net).The web app works like this -- enter values in fields, click submit button, and the data associated with these fields are returned in a modal popup. I need to do the same programatically, without actually opening the browser.I need to know the name of the fields that need to be posted, and the URL. And then store the response.
I need to sort the items in a visual basic listbox numerically, that is, I have a collection of numbers I would like to be sorted increasingly.
I tried to simply use the listbox's Sorted property, but found that it treated the numbers as if they were strings, that is, it would look at the first digit, then the second, etc. to determine the order. That meant that 13 would show before 5, for example.
I thought of dumping all the numbers into an array, soring the array, and then pushing them back to the listbox, but, honestly, I don't know how to go about the sorting. I figured the array would be useless, since the listbox already acts as a pseudo array.
I've been searching for days for a solution. I've scoured the internet and other forums and tried so many things at this point that I think my brain may explode.I receive a large XML file from a third party vendor. I have converted the XML file to a a dataset and use the dataset to fill a datagridview with a specific table. I do not have a schema from the vendor and the XML file does not contain any data type information. The datagridview populates fine but all columns are defaulted to type string. This presents a problem when sorting columns that should be numeric - they sort by string comparison instead of logically numeric. I've tried numerous ways to attempt to convert the datatable columns to integer to no avail.
I would like to have a form application that I can drag n drop the words with their numbers into a Textbox1.text and have the Textbox1.text do the sorting.
In 2007 I created a program that reads weather data into a listview. When a user clicks on the column header it fires off the column click event handler which calls the Sort Wrapper function. The Sort wrapper will re-order items either in ascending or descending order.
I have never been able to get negative integers to sort properly. I have created a stripped down listview program with a few numbers in the grid for testing. (see attached program zip file).When you run the program, click on the column header that says "Val" and you will see right away that the numbers do not sort correctly.
I have a list of strings lets say the items are like this: item_1 item_2 item_4 item_10 item_8 item_11
If I do list.sort() I get the following item_1 item_10 item_11 item_2 item_4 item_8 Somehow I need to get these in order numerically but I am dealing with strings not numbers.
I'm killing myself and dehydrating trying to get this array to sort.I have an array containing directories generated by;Dim Folders() As String = Directory.GetDirectories(RootPath)
I need them to be sorted so they appear like in windows explorer in win7 / vista. -- numerically and alphabetically by folder names.The folder names contain both letters and numbers, sometimes letters only or numbers only.
I created a sorter that StrCmpLogicalW / shlwapi.dll. unfortunately it causes errors on partial trust environments. I am in a really bad need of a solution that does not use 'shlwapi.dll' or StrCmpLogicalW and works in the same fashion.
Here's the sorter that causes the error.
Public Class nvSorter Implements IComparer(Of String) Declare Unicode Function StrCmpLogicalW Lib "shlwapi.dll" ( _ ByVal s1 As String, _
In your actual programming experience, how did this knowledge of STACK and HEAP actually rescue you in real life? Any story from the trenches? Or is this concept good for filling up programming books and good for theory?
What I want to know is that in VB.net is it possible to get a stack overflow, and if so how is it caused. What I mean is, what sort of written code would cause a stack to overflow.
I need to write a VB.NET code to reverse the given characters using a stack.Input: 'S','T','A','C','K' So far I have input the letters, but I don't know how to get the console to reverse it. I'm a beginner to programming so please excuse my ignorance.

I've started using .Net's stack collection. The basic features I guess are the "pop" and "push", where you add or take off the top element of the stack (if you are referencing other elements in the stack then another collection type is probably better).[URL]..it appears that the Stack collection (like other collections) is basically an array with some window dressing (so you actually can see other elements). As far as I can tell, "popping" and "pushing" is changing the first element of the array. Shouldn't instead the final element be the "top" of the stack and be the one that is changed? Otherwise the program has to reindex all the other elements in the array every time a pop or push is made. This seems very inefficient. But this is what Microsoft's description appears to be saying what is happening.
My problem is that i need log the stack call. I know that i can put a breakpoint in code and choose the debug menu option "call stack", But that is not a solution for me, because i need all the methods called by the application, not only the last until the breakpoint.
I just started programming in VB.NET 2008 with the Express edition and have been having a blast so far. I thought a fun program to try and make would be an infix to postfix program.
I have five text boxes off to the side of my program that shows what is on the stack as you iterate through the equation. I'm wondering if it's possible to make these textboxes set to display what is at a certain index of a stack.
For example, if I pushed a "(" onto the stack, I would like the top box of my textboxes to update and show a "(". When something else is pushed onto the stack, say a "/", I would like the "(" to be displayed in the second box down, and the "/" to be displayed in the top box now.
We have this funky little ObjectDisposedException happening now and again. But only on production machines, of course ... can't recreate the issue on my dev unit. So I trotted on out to the Microsoft site to see what members of this exception I could use to figure out what's going on. Microsoft says that one of the members is StackTrace. I double and triple checked that I'm looking at .Net 1.1 information as I'm pretty sure that's what I'm using (how can I check that?). Here's the page I found - [URL]
So I go back to my program to write something useful to the event log so I can figure out what's going on. And when I look at the members of the ObjectDisposedException available to me I only see the following: GetBaseException, GetType, InnerException, Message, ObjectName, ToString.
what happened to my StackTrace member? I sure could use it if I could figure out how to get to it.
As a learning experience I decided to try and implement the Shunting Yard Algorithm(string calculator) using OOP. It was successful for as far as I took it, but it had one flaw. In order to get the stack to be accessible from the operators I had to declare it as shared, which meant that all versions of the calculator shared one stack. This very short piece of code illustrates what I came up with and the "flaw". [code] How can I maintain the functionality of anOP.add1 without declaring "something" as shared?
this exception gets raised on a standard dim command???

I want to put a two dimensional array into a stack and then check the stack to see if it contains the first dimension of the array. Is there any way to override the contains function to do this.
I'm writing this program in Visual Basic .NET to organize different fields of data, and I'm using profile slots through application settings to store the data for users. But, I ran into a stack overflow error in my SlotSelect.vb class. My best plausible guess for why this happens is that I'm using the wrong kind of variable container in the below sauce code, but my dilemma is that I don't know what specifically is going wrong.The code that the vshost is saying is the cause for the overflow was written from some code that I looked up on MSDN and other places for referring to objects in other classes, and I tried using other variants of it to see if it was any different. So far, nothing has worked, and it doesn't stop the error while compiling, much less in the code markup--it only catches it when it starts the application in debug after it finishes building
I'm implementing multi-level undo/redo via a pair of stacks. This works well, but I'd like to limit the number of undo actions (actually objects representing the state of the application) . Once the limit of actions in the stack has been reached, I want to keep adding actions to the stack, but get rid of the oldest (bottom) items as I go.
I am trying to add (Push) whatever the user enters in (MyStack) into 5 different labels that should show the (UserResponse). The problem is I don't know how to display each element in a different label. For example:
- The first element that the user enters (UserResponse) should be in Label1
- The second element that the user enters (UserResponse) should be in Label2 etc.... up to label5.
Also, when I press (Pop) the elements should disappear (Last in first out).

In the context of the CLR in .NET how is stack space allocated and what is it typically limited by? For example: Can any given thread continue to add to the stack until memory runs out? If not; how does the CLR decide how much space to allocate and can it change its mind?
PS: Just to put some context on it this all started from a discussion on how to build a method that will calculate the Fibonacci sequence and one of the suggestions was a recursive function.
The following code (calling proc DiskFreeSpace) throws an "unbalanced stack" error message.
Private Declare Function GetDiskFreeSpaceEx Lib "kernel32" Alias "GetDiskFreeSpaceExA" (ByVal lpDirectoryName As String, _ ByVal lpFreeBytesAvailableToCaller As Long, _ ByVal lpTotalNumberOfBytes As Long, _ ByVal lpTotalNumberOfFreeBytes As Long) As Long
[code]....
Additional note: My function does need to work for UNC paths also (local and/or network).
