I'm developing a Windows Service, but for some reason, the changes I'm making to my code file aren't taking effect. I clean, build, and rebuild the solution as well as all the files that I'm changing, but nothing's happening.Is this a problem with the installation of the service, or something wrong with my IDE? I just now thought that maybe I shouldn't be rebuilding the files...
View 11 Repliesi have changed some of the properties of the form & it's controls but while runtime same is taking effect !
i am changing the form's default location....... "" ....... "".. controls ( Datagridview controls) some column properties but nothing is taking in to effect, but in design time every thing is normal
NOTE:- no code is acting upon this controls IN FORM load or any other event, so i can't suspect that thing
I have a session variable in my asp.net application. The session variable holds a value from the database, that reflects a customized HTML color value.In my application, I have an asp button with server side code
btnContinue.BackColor = System.Drawing.Color.FromName(Session("ContinueColor"))
Issue: However, when I run the application, the color value is not being reflected in the button. I did double check, and the session variable does hold the correct value.There are other objects, that use session variables to display colors, and they are working fine.
Update: When I force a color "btnContinue.BackColor = Drawing.Color.Blue", that works perfectly fine.
Setting the SelectionBackColor and SelectionForeColor of a DataGridViewLinkColumn from the design IDE doesn't take effect. The cell texts still hold the default color blue.
View 2 RepliesI have the following in my code:
lblIsInvalid.Visible = True
I have noticed that even after going to this line, it does not make the label visible. I am thinking this may be a refresh issue as the last line hit is lblIsInvalid.Visible = True. Is there any refresh property that I may not be aware of for a label control.
I'm refactoring VB.NET code where methods routinely run five hundred lines and the references are so tightly coupled that the code defies simple refactoring such as method extraction. And that's why I thought I would try regions within a method body. I just wanted to organize the code for the short term. But the IDE didn't let me (resulted in a compiler error.) I'm just curious as to why? Seems like code regions shouldn't impact the compiler, intellisense etc. Am I missing something? (Still using VS 2005 btw.)
Interesting: This seems to be language specific. It's OK in C# (I didn't check that initially) but not in VB.NET.
public module MyModule
Sub RunSnippet()
dim a as A = new A (Int32.MaxValue )
[code]....
that gets a compiler error but the C# version is ok.
Option Explicit On

Well I recently found a code for making a file spliter, the code is simple (of course need some modification) and it work great.
The code is like this:
Dim iFileSize As Int32
iFileSize = textbox_size.text
Dim SplitFileStream As System.IO.FileStream
[CODE]...
The only problem is understanding the logic of the code. How can it work? How can it know the next time of bytes to write is 200 to 400 if the split size is 200?
I am building an application that accepts input entered into textboxes, then checks the input for negative values, etc. before writing it to a file. If the data does not meet the conditions, a message box pops up letting the user know. The problem I am having is that after it checks the data and displays the message box, it continues to save the input to the file anyway. How do I make it only write to the file if all the data meets my conditions?

I have a class with a static list of keys, and I have a static method called Remove() that removes a key from that list.Now what I understand from the contracts post conditions is that as the programmer of the class, I guarantee that the current public method does something specific, in this case : removing the element of the list.
Here's what I've written:
private static List<Keys> m_usedKeys; // private list of keys
public static void Remove(Keys _key)
{
[code]....
What I'm trying to "Ensure" here, is that the Remove() method removes the key for real from the list (Yes this might be a trivial example, but I get the error there.)when I write the Contract.Ensures() line, VS2010 gives me the following error :
Error 3 Detected expression statement evaluated for potential side-effect in contracts of method 'LibJungleTimer.KeyBind.Remove(System.Windows.Forms.Keys)'. (Did you mean to put the expression into a Requires, Ensures, or Invariant call?) C:UsersJoelDocumentsProgrammationJTJungleTimerLibJungleTimerKeyBind.cs 51
I think this error says that the expression m_usedKeys.remove(_key); has a potential side-effect. In fact, it has a side-effect, it removes a key from the list!If I try to write something like this instead :
Contract.Assert(!m_usedKeys.Any(x => x == _key));
well it compiles fine.
I'm writing a program to search files.The result is saved in a text file.Everything it's working fine, but when I say to look for files/folders in C:* the process takes long time and in task manager it's displayed as "Not Responding", this is not true because I see that CPU and RAM are working with this process.I've disabled in DEBUG OPTIONS the line "ContextSwitchDeadlock" just to prevent the error message "this operation require long time ... bla bla bla".Is there any way to display a progress bar or something like that that shows the program is running and it isn't "hang"?Here's my code (in red the line where the program hangs):
Code:
Public Class Form1
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
Dim cartella, scelta, cosa As String
[code]....
I think that it's like when you type in the command prompt "tree" it doesn't hang... I know... it's not the same thing but...I'm using Visual Basic 2008 Express?
For example in my .txt file contains

I'd like the outcome to be BB

Then the outcome would be : BBB
The outcome can be anything, displaying on messagebox, label1.text and etc.
I am writing an application for managing mp3 files. I use AXWindowsMediaPlayer1 for playing files and UltraID3 for reading and writing ID3 tags. Every time the user selects to switch to next song, the ID3 tags of the current file need to be updated. My problem is with Media Player taking a long time to release a file for access after doing a "close". Currently I need to add a 6 seconds delay between the "Close" method of the media player and the ID3 tag "Write", otherwise I get the error saying that the file is currently in use. Anything less than 6 seconds does not work...
I attached a short version of my application which focuses on the issue.

i want to delete some files but only if they aren't in use. What i did was a try/catch:
Try
My.Computer.FileSystem.DeleteFile(fileInfo.FullName)
Catch ex As Exception
End Try
but it seems that this method is very slow if i try to delete some files over network.
Is there an faster way to delete files? Is it faster to check first if an file is open? If yes, how can i check if an file is open?

How many times have we seen this type of selector:
I was just about to start creating this in a WinForms app, when I thought that others may have some ideas for doing this better. We need it to sort - so the right hand list will need up/down buttons. But this seems so old school. I love devexpress components, and was thinking of asking them if they would consider adding a component that handles this functionality with a slick UI.
I am thinking that a graphical representation of the objects, and a graphical representation of the listboxes - that would be a more intuitive way to move items around. Has anyone seen an open source project like this?
I've got a basic VB.net 2.0 application together in VisualStudio 2005. Within a form, I've tied [enter] in several text boxes to a button. What I'd like to do is "press" the button from getField_KeyDown() to give the user a visual indication of what's happening.With the code below, the button click work is done but the button's look doesn't change and the user is left without feedback.
Private Sub getField_KeyDown(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyEventArgs) Handles txtGetKey.KeyDown
If e.KeyCode = Keys.Enter Then
e.Handled = True
Call btnGet.PerformClick()
End If
End Sub
How can I make the button looked pressed while the btnGet.PerformClick() work is being done?
I downloaded this code from the web that Wierddemon gave me in my previous thread. This solution contains 2 projects (CurrencyControlTest and CurrencyTextBox) There are some things that I don't understand:
1. What's the type of form1.vb and program.vb in the CurrencyControlTest Project? Are they classes, or windows Forms or module?
2. This is the code in Program.vb
Imports Microsoft.VisualBasic
Imports System
Imports System.Collections.Generic
[CODE]...
What's the effect of <STAThread> code?
3. What is exactly the "Namespace" doing in this code? because when I removed the namespace, An error indicating that Form1 is not declared appeared. What is namespace? what does it do? Can anyone give sample code to emphasize the function and how and when to use the keyword "Namespace"?
4. This is code for Form1 in CurrencyControlTest Project
Imports Microsoft.VisualBasic
Imports System
Imports System.Collections.Generic

What's with the "public partial class Form1"? what does "partial" do? When i right-clicked on the InitializeComponent(), A portion of code appeared suddenly with the header #Region. What is this? and when re-open the Form1 in "View Code" mode, they're gone.
