View 4 RepliesI am creating a small applicaiton for simulating dice roll. To simulate bounces I change the position of the picture randomly. Now to simulate more than one bounce, I used a for loop to continuously change the position of the picture box. But it is not happening as I planned, the form only displays the position of the last loop. I even tried using System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(1000) hoping to show the bounces, but even they show the last loop only.
For bounceCount As Integer = 1 To bounces
bounce(pb_dice1)
bounce(pb_dice2)
System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(3000) 'I need to pause here and show the recent change in position then continue after 3 seconds
Next
the bounce method changes the position of the PictureBox.
How can I pause my for loop, display the newly positioned dices, and then continue after 3 seconds?
i've been searching for a way to delay a part of my program to let another part load, all i have found is threading sleep and one way which uses huge amounts of processing power. does anyone know a simple way to pause a part of script for a couple of seconds and then letting it run again? ( the problem is i need to get values from core temp, i also need to open it in the program. at the moment it say's "Object reference not set to an instance of an object." because it hasn't loaded by the time it is tried to be accessed. )

2) I have some solutions under 2010. In 2 or 3, while debugging, I can change instructions without restarting the application. In others, I cannot change anything (Is like readonly), Looking in 'My Applications', Tab 'Debug', Option 'Configuration' I can choose several Options. In the applications I can debug, the default is 'Active (Debug)'; in the others is 'Active (Release)'. If I change the options, the word 'Active' remains attached to the original option.
I want to convert seconds such as 254565443 seconds to hours, minutes, and seconds and thought if I could remove the decimal and the numbers behind it and not change the number in front of the decimal then it would work.
dim seconds = 254565443
dim Hour
dim minute

I have an app that I'm debugging and I need to pause it by clicking on a "pause" button in the development environment. I don't want to stop it programmatically, just manually to check what it is doing. I know this should be simple but I can't find a pause button anywhere on the toolbar.

I am moving a lot of data to MS Excel from my application. I use a conditional statement to choose which Excel page the data is transferred into. Then a For Next statement to divide the data into various areas on the Excel sheet.The first sheet will always work correctly, but on the next conditional statement to chose the next Excel sheet no data transfers when running the program. If I step the program by hand all data all code works fine. I believe I need to pause between the conditional statements but I have been unable to get one to work.In the following code I have been trying to get a pause between to conditional statement to no avail.

Right now in my app I have a Pause and a Continue button, basically I enable/disable the controls on the form. Is there a better way to handle this.
Is there a way to lock the cursor in the control that it is in when the Pause button is clicked and then release it when the Continue botton is clicked?

View 1 RepliesI have a thread running on my application that checks a database every so often to decide whether or not to update nodes in a treeview.
Each treeview node represents a document and I have an open button that opens the document for the user.
When the document is opened, I wanted to suspend the thread that refreshes the node list until the document is closed.
I have MyThread.Suspend and MyThread.Resume. But the document viewer is on another thread.
I created functions for suspending/resuming the thread in the application. I have delegates in the viewer to call those functions from another thread. But I'm still getting an Error. "Thread is not user-suspended. Cannot be resumed" or something of the like.
But I realize that Suspend and resume are obsolete functions, so what class or objects should I be looking into and if it didn't take up too much of your time, a small example as well?
Currently, I have 4 textboxes displaying hh , mm, ss and ms.I am required to convert only the Seconds, Minutes, and Hours and display it into another textbox (see attached doc for diagram).I've got a brief idea that for the hours, i'm required to multiply by 3600, and as for the minutes, multiply by 60. Am i correct? Please correct me if i'm wrong. But as for the actual coding of conversion and how to display it into another textbox, i'm not sure how to do so.

I have a value in a report that's in seconds that I want to display as hours:mins:seconds .. in Excel I can divide the field/86400 and format as hh:mm:ss but if I do the same in the report viewer it just shows "hh:mm:ss" presumably because the field is an integer and not a date.What's the easiest way to show a seconds value as hh:mins:ss ?

when i run code after 60 sec it display following error what is this error and how to eliminate ?ContextSwitchDeadlock was detected Message: The CLR has been unable to transition from COM context 0x2040a8 to COM context 0x204218 for 60 seconds. The thread that owns the destination context/apartment is most likely either doing a non pumping wait or processing a very long running operation without pumping Windows messages. This situation generally has a negative performance impact and may even lead to the application becoming non responsive or memory usage accumulating continually over time. To avoid this problem, all single threaded apartment (STA) threads should use pumping wait primitives (such as CoWaitForMultipleHandles) and routinely pump messages during long running operations.
View 1 RepliesOut of curiosity, is there a way i can make a program stop or pause for a period of time (which i would choose) before continuing the code WITHOUT a timer.I think I've seen this done before, but I'm not positive.Also note that I'm talking about a forms application (not a console app if that would be any different.)
