System Timer - Checking Message Status?
Jun 9, 2010
I have application that use MSSQL database. Application have module that is using for sending messages between application users. When one user send message to another I insert message in database, and set message status to 1( after user read message database I update and set message status to 0). Now, I am using system.timers.timer for checking message status, and if message status 1 user get alert that he has one message inbox. The problem is that this application can be used by many users, and if timer run ever 5 minutes this gone slow application and database.

I have done the PING part, you click a button the it ping's the server IP Address, then return's the result via a label. I want to make one so it check's the HTTP status of the server and if it's on it display's a green circle with a label next to it saying HTTP Status is OK.

I am currently trying to develop a chat application which will work on a LAN, however encountering problems with with adding a user through the registration form, always getting the result :: "Datatype mismatch in criteria expression" I've tried checking and cross-checking the datatypes used in both the database(its a .mdb database,, created in Microsoft Access)this is the code i am using:
dim con as new oledbconnection
dim cmd as new oledbcommand
Public Sub UserReg()
[code]....
everything is done,, such as opening the connection and defining teh data reader, etc as you can see from teh code(which was derived from another question but i made edits to suit my use for it)I also have problems with checking wether a user is online. obviously i will be referring to the table to do that using something like
cmd = new oledbdatacommand("SELECT * FROM Users where isOnline = "Yes")
dim sdr as oledbdatareader = cmd.execute reader
whence it will show a list of all the currently "Online users" but i do not how how to quite refer to it?

I need an accurate timer to interface a Windows application to a piece of lab equipment.I used System.Timers.Timer() to create a timer that ticks every 10 msec, but this clock runs slow. For example 1000 ticks with an interval of 10 msec should take 10 wall-clock seconds, but it actually takes more like 20 wall-clock sec (on my PC). I am guessing this is because System.Timers.Timer() is an interval timer that is reset every time it elapses. Since it will always take some time between when the timer elapses and when it is reset (to another 10msec) the clock will run slow. This probably fine if the interval is large (seconds or minutes) but unacceptable for very short intervals.Is there a function on Windows that will trigger a procedure every time the system clock crosses a 10 msec (or whatever) boundary?
UPDATE: System.Timers.Timer() is extremely inaccurate for small intervals.I wrote a simple program that counted 10 seconds several ways:
Interval=1, Count=10000, Run time = 160 sec, msec per interval=16
Interval=10, Count=1000, Run time = 16 sec, msec per interval=15
Interval=100, Count=100, Run time = 11 sec, msec per interval=110
Interval=1000, Count=10, Run time = 10 sec, msec per interval=1000
It seems like System.Timers.Timer() cannot tick faster that about 15 msec, regardless of the interval setting.Note that none of these tests seemed to use any measurable CPU time, so the limit is not the CPU, just a .net limitation (bug?)For now I think I can live with an inaccurate timer that triggers a routine every 15 msec or so and the routine gets an accurate system time. Kinda strange, but...I also found a shareware product ZylTimer.NET that claims to be a much more accurate .net timer (resolution of 1-2 msec). This may be what I need. If there is one product there are likely others.

Here is the stack trace:
2012-03-16 19:15:09Z E System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
at System.Timers.Timer.set_Enabled(Boolean value)
at System.Timers.Timer.Stop()
Here's the code:
Timer declared as private member variable.
Private _myTimer As System.Timers.Timer
Initialize timer method.
[code]....
The timer has to have a value or else the Timer.Stop() call would be throwing the exception. This is a sporadic error and I'm just trying to see if anyone has experienced this before or if anyone has any ideas of what could be causing it. It is occuring in a WinForms application in the event handler for the Elapsed event of the Timer, but it is only occuring sporadically on the users computer. I haven't been able to reproduce the error myself.

Do something like this
-User Opens program
-User goes to settings.(Settings has a bunch of RadioButtons)
-User Customizes settings, checks certain buttons. (How would I pop up a msg when the user clicks "Ok" with out checking something?
-When "Ok" is pressed, it will "save"
-When settings is opened again, the same RadioButtons will be checked.
Right now, if I exit the settings form, and open it again, the radio buttons are cleared

I am in the process of developing an application for one of my clients. I am not going into the details of the applications, but brief facts of the same. The application is divided into two tiers (actually three, but the third tier is the database (SQL SERVER) so that is not included). The top tier (or first tier) is a web application (ASP.NET) where the users shall log into the system and use the application. This web application will also access the Database directly. One important activity the users shall do is uploading excel files with various information to the server. Web Application once the upload is successful shall enter the details in the in Database about the upload along with an ID and save the excel file at a location in the server.The Second tier is a VB.NET Application which will run in the server. The application will connect the database and retrieve the list of excel file uploaded by the web application and start processing one excel file after another based on ID. The processing that will be done is very simple: read the excel file, check for certain parameters, do some calculations and insert the whole details into the database. (say some 100 records per excel file)
The server in which the VB.NET Application (Second tier) runs is hosting a serious of services and application which shall run simultaneously including the Database (SQLSERVER), web server. The Database also host tables and database for various other applications. In order to help in the smooth functioning of the system, it has been decided that the VB.NET shall do the processing activity only when the server is idle (including CPU usage is idle). I have searched the Net and found API to get the system Idle status. But the real question is how to pause the processing activity when the system switch from idle mode and continue when it is again back to idle mode. Please note that I am talking about system being idle because no other application is executing any activity except the VB.NET Application.

im trying to detect if the connection is still active upon trying to send or receive anything. Now I have checks in place if it's connected then it will send or receive however... it's saying it's connected when it is not connected... and therefore my program tries to send and receive and errors.
I am determining if it is ok to send and receive by using the Socket.Poll(-1, SelectMode.SelectWrite)
if it's true then im connected and data can be passed..This seems to always be true until I send something and it fails..How can I catch the socket not being connected before it fails upon sending or receiving?

I am trying to create an icon in the system tray as status for num-lock, caps-lock, and scroll-lock, because my keyboard that came with my computer does not have status lights on the keyboard, and only on the system tray.
The program however that came with it, does not like to work when I have some games open and stuff, it works usually in IE, and most other programs, but some programs just seem to interfere with it.
I have made a new program on a 1 mili-second timer for the 3 and it seems to work just fine in the application, I was wondering now if I could move that over to the system tray and make it look like the one that came with computer, it has 3 different icons, and the icon changes for on/off and has a tooltip status change on mouse-over showing status of on/off.

I have added a timer control to a VB.NET windows form to have a message flash on and off between ticks. When I load the form I have the timer disabled. When i click on a command button, I set Timer1.Enabled to True so that the timer can begin flashing the message. The timer does not flash the message. I added a MsgBox function after where I turn on the timer. When the message box is displayed and I click OK, then the timer starts flashing the message. I turn the timer off later and that seems to work fine. I have tried the Timer1.Start() method but that does not work. Any thoughts on why the message box allows it to run but the form does not?

I am trying to make a form that is connected to all my systems at work, this form will not be doing much, it will have an image representing each system, all I want the application to do is if one system is down, the image will turn into red, and if its up, it should be green, to be more clearly and make it simpler, I want it to be linked to more than one destination, each time one link goes down, its image changes to red, and that it. But the problem here is i dont know where to start from, specially that I don't know how to link and get a true or false for the connection!

I have a type (Human) and I want to know if I could do System.Activator.CreateInstance(Of Human)(). So basically I want to check if Human has a public parameterless constructor / or a public constructor with optional parameters that make it possible to call New Human without giving any arguments.Is it possible to check beforehand if ystem.Activator.CreateInstance(Of T) will fail? (I mean other than wrapping the statement System.Activator.CreateInstance(Of Human)() in a Try Catch of course..)I've tried this but it doesn't work:

I have used system.timers.timer to watch several folders and move files in my windows service. But the timer event stops now and then. I have read that it is better to use system.threading.timer in services.This is my system.timers.timer
Private Timer As New System.Timers.Timer
AddHandler Timer.Elapsed, New System.Timers.ElapsedEventHandler(AddressOf Me.Timer_Elapsed)
Timer.Interval = 4000
Timer.Start()
[code]....
How do this code look like in system.threading.timer?How do i start and stop the timer using threading? That is very important because i stop the timer when it comes to the elapsed event and when the code har run it starts the timer again!

In vb6 you used timer for the randomize seed.I noticed vb10 no longer uses it. Does this mean by default it uses the system timer for the seed?

I have an application that I'm writing that needs to run 3 different Timers. One that will run every 5 minutes, 1 that will run every hour and 1 that has to run once a day sometime after 5:00 P.M. I know that I can seperate the application into 3 seperate applications and use Windows Scheduled Tasks to perform this however I would prefer to have everything in 1 application and just run the different Sub/Functions off of the appropriate Timer. I'm trying also figure out a way to avoid 2 timers firing at the same time.
What i would like to do is tell the 5 minute timer to run say 2 minutes after every 5 minute mark in the our so the first one would be at 12:07 and then the next would be at 12:12 and so on. The hour timer should run sa at 12:20. The daily one run at say 5:31.Is it possible to use the System.timer or the System.Threading.timer in this way?
