Mar 29, 2012

I have been working on a program in where i can add a deck, and then test it out, for various reasons. (Too much mana, not enough mana, ect.) and i have been wanting to add pictures so i could see what cards are popping up, but have no idea on how to do that. i can use my.resources to add pictures for my own cards, but i have no idea on how to go about giving the cards pictures.

Here is my code:

Array Of Checkboxes - 52 Card Deck Counter

Jul 13, 2009

I'm in a bit of a bind with this project I'm currently working on. I'm making a 52 card deck counter, so the first code I whipped up was an array to create checkboxes for 13 cards of each of the 4 suits.

Dim x As Integer = 10
Dim y As Integer = 440
Dim width As Integer = 150

[CODE]............

The problem is I can't figure out for the life of me how to use the contents in cards(k, i). Anyone know how to initialize event handlers for that array of checkboxes?

Something like:

[CODE].........

But again, I have no clue how to get the script to detect when a cards(k, i) is checked.

Gathering Text From A Web Page?

Jul 19, 2010

I'm trying to gather changing information (just text really) from a web page, or collection of web pages. For example, looking up the most recent weather predictions from weather.com.

After searching the Internet I came across some code (which I don't fully understand) that seems to get the job done but not very efficiently:

Dim request As System.Net.HttpWebRequest = System.Net.HttpWebRequest.Create("www.example.com")
Dim response As System.Net.HttpWebResponse = request.GetResponse
Dim sr As System.IO.StreamReader = New System.IO.StreamReader(response.GetResponseStream)
Dim src As String = sr.ReadToEnd()

Gathering Data From Several Different COM Ports And Reformat?

Apr 28, 2010

I have written a program that will gather data from several different COM ports and reformat the data before sending it to a web site. This program is intended to run 24/7, but only send the information at user specified intervals. I have the routines to gahter data, but I only need it to perform this task at the specified time (5 minutes to each hour). At startup the dialog minimizes to the system tray. I would like a balloon message notifiy anyone watching that the data is about to be sent, and allow them to add additional comments if they choose (by clicking on the balloon). The system tray icon has several context menu items that the user may need. Is this the proper use of a background thread? I would also like opinions on the best method for pausing execution until the specified time.

C# - Gathering Data From Tables Of Access Database

Mar 2, 2010

I want to gather some data from some tables of an Access Database, I've found some solutions online, but I haven't found ways to fill a datatable, or dataset, and get each single field properly. Is it easier for me to get whole tables then get just the info that i want, or should I make a lot of searches in the access DB getting just what I want each time? Any code snippets for it? The Access Database is in an ACCDB file, with no user or password. I'm currently using VB.NET, but it doesn't matter if you answer in C#. [URL]

VS 2008 Which Method Would Be Faster For Gathering And Storing Data

Nov 16, 2009

I have a simple multithread application that stores updated data from a list of websites. After each thread gathers data, it then store the data into the same text file. I am now thinking of having each thread store the data directly into a arrayList, and after a certain amount of time past, store from the arrayList to the text file. Which situation would enable the application to complete its task faster?

Magic Number Vs Constant?

May 11, 2012

I save a lot of settings in an INI file as 1 (enabled) and 0 (disabled), all around the project's module i have this check If setting = 1 then ' do somethingEnd If ' OR If setting = 0 then ' do somethingEnd If

My question, is it good for performance to declare public constants to hold 1 & 0 and use them in such above checks instead of using real number?

In general, if i use value like 8, 9, "", "$", etc... in just two different places, should i declare constant for it?

Late Binding Magic Under .NET Converted To C#?

Nov 22, 2011

I should convert some code from VB to C#. Given following lines of VB work (I think only because option is not set to strict):

Dim someProp As SomeType
Try
someProp = CType(SomeInstance, Object).SomeProp
' ...

Due to late binding, this code is possible under VB. Of course, following won't work under C#:

SomeType someProp;
try
{
someProp = ((object)SomeInstance).SomeProp;
// ...

How could I formulate something similar under C#?

Magic Numbers - File Header And Footer

Feb 12, 2011

For my project, I need to develop an app, which will have MS-SQL db with 4 tables
a>FileHeader
b>FileFooter
c>Extension
d>Detail about the file.
This is all to do with the Magic Numbers, or File header and footer, found in all files. The first 4-byte and last 4-bytes.

Example:
Suppose a word DOC file when read using this app should return and match the values
D0 CF 11 E0
So, how can I read the files using vb.net, fileIO, FileStream/StreamClass/FileReader? I just need to open the file and read the first 4 and last 4 bytes of any given file. And then it should connect back to the SQL database and lookup for the matching values from the tables as I had mentioned. And return a match found or not found.

Designing Magic Square - Scanning Array With Function

Mar 18, 2011

I'm designing a 3 x 3 Magic Square, where the 3 x 3 tables are made of up three adjacent list boxes. Upon starting the program, the 3 x 3 square consists only of the character "?" to represent a variable that has yet to be defined. The user will input through text boxes and button presses the characters 1 to 9, replacing the highlighted undefined "?' with the desired number. I'm required to include a Function procedure that can, at any time scan the 3x3 table and return an integer value of -1 if an undefined character "?" is present, a value of 0 if the rows, columns and diagonals do not sum to the same value, or the sum common to all rows columns and diagonals.

To start with I defined a 2D array and undefined.
Dim mSquare(2,2) As String
Dim undefined As String = "?"

Then I used a Sub to set the 3x3 table as undefined which I did not show to save space. Next I used a Sub to update the highlighted characters, allowing only one list box to be selected at a time and which I hope also assigns the the values to the array as they are updated. I removed parts of the code so this post isn't too big.

If lstCol2.SelectedIndex = -1 And lstCol3.SelectedIndex = -1 Then
lstCol1.Items(lstCol1.SelectedIndex) = input
txtInput.Text = ""
End If
For i As Integer = 0 To 2
[Code] .....

What I'm stuck on is the Function design. I'm trying to design something to scan the array, and give back an integer depending on the results, which are to return an integer value of -1 if an undefined character "?" is present, a value of 0 if the rows, columns and diagonals do not sum to the same value, or the sum common to all rows columns and diagonals.

I'm currently trying
Function checkSquare(ByRef mSquare As String) As String
For i As Integer = 0 To 2
[Code] .....

At the moment I keep getting the error "Public Readonly Default Property Chars(index As Integer) As Char". I keep getting an error like this even using a single variable and defining each j individually, and I'm wondering if its possible to pass arrays to functions or do I need to do something else. Is what I'm trying to do even possible? I did a longer method in which I just check all the entries individually but I'm hoping there is a more efficient way. Its my plan B for now.

.net - Photoshop Like Magic Wand For Selecting Pixels Of A Similar Color?

I need to write some vb.net code that looks at a picture and "removes" the blackish pixels.Here's the scenario. A wound care doctor takes a picture of a persons hand on a flat bed scanner. The nice pink palm print is there but it is surrounded by blackish pictures. I want to make the picture pop by programatically "removing" or recoloring the pixels that are in the blackish range. i.e. the Photoshop magic wand select and delete.I have not code to start off.

Using 'magic Numbers' In Code Is Not Good Practice And Makes Maintenance Difficult

Feb 26, 2012

"First of all please TURN OPTION STRICT ON.I make no apology for the capitals - I consider it that important.When you do you will see that you are still using HorizontalAlignment instead of ContentAlignment.VB is converting from one to the other for you.Although that works fine here there are many cases when it will not be what you intended and can cause some very hard to find bugs.Under Tools | Options | Projects and Solutions | VB Defaults Set: Option Strict ON, Option Explicit ON, Option Infer OFF".I did do this but it showed no errors, so I placed 'Option Strict On' at the start of the code, it then showed HorizontalAlignment with the squiggly line. I did edit my code to show this but I think you must have read it before I did. All other suggestions I will note and from now try to implement.Using "magic numbers" in the code is not good practice and makes maintenance difficult.Declare all such numbers at the top and use the names in the code.Is this what you mean? Const SpinTime As Integer = 500

Now when ever I refer in code to SpinTime it will always be 500..Change the NumberOfBoxes to 10 and run the app.In mine, to change boxes to 10 I needed to alter the code in 5 places, in yours 1 place! Talk about proof of the pudding etc.Now to my question, in the program when the start button is clicked and the five random numbers are displayed I have to stop and restart the program to generate five more. So I thought I would create another button 'Reset' this I did and all worked but it seemed a waste so I then just kept the start button in place and changed the text to Reset eg [code] This is fine the one thing I can't figure is how to replace the five numbers that were removed so that it is picking 5 from 500 every time. Now I'm at the end of all this writing I have it! just comment out the line 'Numbers.Remove(Number).

Write A Unit Test Assembly In C# To Test Against An Assembly Written In VB?

Probably a dumb question, but can you write a unit test project in one language to test against another project in a different language?I'd like to translate one of our VB assemblies into C#, but want to build unit tests to verify the results. I've tried to set a unit test project up to do this, but I can't seem to access the VB code within a unit test... I can't figure out if I'm just missing/doing something stupid, or it really isn't allowed.
