I'm asking about the best way to get data from SQL Database with less than 1 sec. Really I need to know if iIused LINQ is the faster way or ADO.Net? How can I start with application like CITRIX that will be helpful to share this application after I got data. I mean any example to start create an application to share applications like citrix to share applications?
View 6 RepliesI am looking for help on how to speed up VB.NET (or C#) screen refresh speed. Specifically I need to update many controls and then refresh them on the screen all at once.I am in charge of writing a .NET interface for an older legacy program. Because this needs to run on slow legacy machines I did a performance test and discovered the screen refresh speeds of VB6 is faster then .NET. In VB6 there is barely a flicker as controls change across the entire form all at once. In VB.NET you can see controls change moving across the form like a wave. I must be doing something wrong...
To do a head to head comparison I put together equivalent VB6 and VB.NET programs, each with a maximized form and 48 labels. Clicking on any label changes the background color of all the labels on the form. To really see the problem it is best to try the following code on a slower machine (1GHz etc.)
In VB6 create a project MyProject and add a form MyForm with the following properties
Caption = "Screen Refresh test VB6"
BackColor = Black
WindowState = Maximized
On that form add a label MyLabel with the following properties:
Index = 0
Caption = "Hello World"
BackColor = Cyan
In the form add the following code:

View 1 RepliesI have three different web applications that I made in VS08 vb.net. Each application uses a class that i continue to update (MyClass.vb), other than using Vault to propogate changes, is it possible to create a class or dll and put it out on the webserver and have each web app call that class or dll?
View 3 RepliesI have two VB projects in one VS2010 solution. The first program brings in about 60 integers every few seconds from my PC's serial port. The second program, published via Click-Once and running on my customer's PC, needs to see that new data every two to five seconds.
Is there a simple and reliable way to accomplish this, staying with VB?
I would like to know if it was possible to share data between several assemblies using the same DLL.
I'm not looking for a workaround using memory or disk files of some kind of pipes to do the job I just want to know if and how:
1 - I can run an App. referring to a DLL which contains a given shared data structure.
2 - Run another App. referring to the same DLL that will use the already loaded DLL and data instead of creating a new base instance.
I want to build a main application that make the autentication process and store the loged user... Then use X and Y applications to ask the current user and depends of the user will have full access partial or none access to the app. In future a Z application could be created and will ask for the current user also. XYZ apps are lauched from Main app, when Main app is closed the others are closed and User ID data is cleared. Of course the main app will handle the log on/log off process.
- Store User ID in a Database is toooooo much for just do this
- Save the User ID in a local file like XML is a security problem
I tried to do a WCF Service but i think its not possible to send data and store in it.The other point is who to handle the instantation issue... each program will access to the same static data not create independent.
just wanted to ask if it is possible to have different applications sharing the same session (i.e. database session)... i'm planning on creating a web-based application and a form-based application using asp.net for web and vb.net for forms but i need to have them share sessions since some global variables will be session based and also authentication to one application should also authenticate on the other.
View 2 RepliesI have 5 websites running on same server and I have some sql tables that I access frequently. that was time consuming and by defining them shared I pumped them in memory. So my application is accessing those static data tables from memory quite efficiently.
But I realized I did a mistake and I occupied my memory unnecessarily while I keep same tables 5 times for each web application. Now I need to find the best way to share that table only 1 time. my options are;
1) using a local database - sql CE. my original sql database is on other server. so it makes the access slower but I can add a sql CE database(to be honest I never used it and dont know if it gives me anything) to access only these tables while they have static rows.
2) I read over forums that making a WCF using tcp binding. not sure if it will give me any advantage.
3) windows service: is it faster than wcf? programming is defiantly faster as i have experience with winservice but nor sure about performance.
Using any version of .NET how do you find out which zone a particular share is classified under. I am having a problem identifying if a share where my referenced dlls reside is in the "intranet zone" or "internet" zone relative to some user machine that is running my .NET application. I suspect this is a problem because I am having a problem accessing referenced dlls from a share on some machines but not others. How can I tell which zone .NET is classifying that share in so I can adjust permissions accordingly?

What I need is to highlight multiple matches within some portion of text as the user types a search pattern. Right now I'm using a RichTextBox to highlight text. The highlighting takes place if a user changes the search pattern and naturally it happens with each key press. It works, but I'm experiencing a performance issues. If the text is large enough the highlighting takes too long (up to several seconds).
Facing that I tried to launch the highlighting procedure in a different thread aborting it and launching it again if the search pattern was changed during the highlighting but still I'm not satisfied with performance. Now I'm asking if there some other control I could use to speed up the process?

OK. I am making application for copying. Problem is that every time application wants to write it first tries to write via fast IO and get response that it isn't allowed and then it writes a file (i am assuming without fast i/o). I have no idea what fast i/o is (i know io is input output -> read write). So I can assume that it is handled by class that I am using to write. I am using System.IO.FileStream and its functions Read and Write. Is there any other class that I can use witch will allow Fast IO or disable trying it in first place (I would like the first solution)? Or should I do something else?

I'm sure there is a better way to do that because the list is normally huge ( consisting of more than 10^6 objects).
