VS 2008 - Timer Does Not Count While Other Process In Action
Aug 23, 2010
I am trying to make a Process Estimator application. It should tell the user how fast hes computer is. The output should be the number to calculate to and how much time did it take in mili-seconds (timer interval set to 100). I enable the timer before it starts calculating, but the problem is when it start calculating the timer stops for some reason...
This is the
Private Sub Timer1_Tick(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Timer1.Tick
TextBox2.Text = CInt(TextBox2.Text) + 1
End Sub
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
[Code] .....
I am making the simple timer module which will display time in count down format as if user want 1 hour 3 mins and 30 sec so it will count in revers. I have almost half code done but after trying the all tricks and logic I didn't got any thing the out put is not proper as which I want.
The code is as follows Public Class Form1 Public hh As Integer Public mm As Integer Public ss As Integer Public totalsec As Integer [Code] .....
I am having a mental block on how to work out a 15 minute timer that is shown on a label and counts down so that the user can watch it. I can do it just fine in seconds but I need to put it into the format of 15:00 and then have it count down the seconds and the the minutes when ever it drops 60 seconds. I found a few articles on using the dateNow syntax but that seems like it would only be good for adding time not subtracting it. Also I know I can set up a button to start and stop the timer but is it possible to use the space bar as the start/stop button?
am really getting to know more about programming each day. really interesting. i have a form with some labels.. i need each label to display a text after certain time of the time count. i have this piece i put together.. didnt work but i guess it need a little professional touch.
Problem (1) Basically I got a Sub handling a button click, in the Sub I start my timer. In the timer_tick, a value is assigned to a variable and then the timer stops. This variable at the given time should be used later on the sub, however whats currently happening is that the the timer is starting; but I figured the sub must continue going as the variable dosn't change till the sub ends and then the timer begins to do all its ticks so to say.So basically how would one go about making it so that once I start my timer,for the sub to stay where it is, do everything till the timer stops and then continues.
Problem (2) This is in regards to the timer being broken, basically i'll show my code below. Whats happening is that at "ElseIf county = publicx Then" the timer must be stopping right before, as it's not doing the if statement and in my form nothing is changing and its locked as the timer hasn't finished. In my timer the form should unlock before finishing, so I know for sure its not finishing. So whats going on with my timer, why is it freezing on me? Also, for the record @ count=publicx both values are 1 and the countertime=0; so the variables are correct.
Private Sub Timer_Tick(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Timer.Tick Dim CwStich As Boolean = False Dim pbName As String = ("PB" & county & publicy)[code]......
I have three sets of labels, lbl_seconds, lbl_minutes and lbl_hours. These labels have the default value of 00:00 and I want the timer to change that for each label. I have googled this but I cannot seem to find any good info on it. Do I need three separate timers? I have also noticed that the timers have their own tick event handler. I guess it's in this that I need to change the value of the label. But I cannot figure out how to do just that.
This is not to manage my own application's GDI leak but another that runs in conjunction. Basically, I want to know if the number of GDI objects for a given process has reached a certain limit. I just need a pointer to the right direction. Should I be doing a "stack walk"?
I am confused what will happen, when I disable a timer. Will it finish the process and then disable or will it immediately disable without completing process? for example
[Code]....
I want to run getMessage from somewhere else, so I need to disable timer during that time to be asured not to override anything and also before timer disable it should complete that function code.
I have a process that i call, if it doesnt end within a certain time, i want the process to be killed and the loop to only continue after this. if i thread the timer it never tics. If i thread the process it never does as its suppose to.
Code:
Imports System.IO Imports System.Threading Public Class Form2
I am trying to block a list of processes from Txt file/ Listbox System.Diagnostic.Process using Timer. Here's the timer codes
[Code]...
I can block processes from the list using SelectedItem, but it doesn't block all the process in the list.Using while loop causes a deadlock error here. I'm now using aBlock.ReadLine to read from txt file and block the available process. However it is only able to block the first process. Need some guidance to get this code to block all the processes in the list.
I'm in need of a timer that runs a process every 31.25 milliseconds. Thus, after 768 "ticks" have gone exactly 24 seconds.The control "Timer" that exists in Visual Studio does not accept decimal values.So I had to round the value of the range to 31 or 32. But this raises a problem since the end of the 768 ticks there is a difference of half a second or more. And I need to run the 768 ticks in exactly 24 seconds.I've been researching, and I read some things about the "High-Resolution Timer. " But I did not understand exactly how to use it, and how to set your interval to 31.25 mils, and do that every period of this interval to run the code.
I have a VB Windows App created using VS2K10. It produces pdf files from SQL data. The SQL data is refreshed every 10 minutes pulling from a DB2 (ERP) system via a Linked Server by a SQL DTS package being run by SQL Job Agent (SQL 2005). Because of OLEDB and security issues, the data download can only be performed by a specific Windows 2003 server. (It takes from 2-3.5 minutes to download the necessary data.)
Now, if the process of creating and printing the PDF files takes longer than 6 minutes then it's still running while the next data download is starting, the result of which is that several PDF files are created blank or absent any data. I tried to execute the DTS package on demand instead of on a timer, but cannot get past the OLEDB quirks related to our iSeries (IBM server) DB2 database system. The only answer seems to be to have the client application pause at a specific time interval and resume after @ 4 minutes, but I haven't a clue as to how to do that. Before you ask, using ODBC to pull specific data from the DB2 system directly into the client is too slow to be a viable option.
a datacontext defined in a module(domain services ado.net ria)a page having add/delete methods whenever any method is executed, it is found that all the previous actions (NEW RECORD ADDITION and DELETION OF RECORDS) are carried out before the new action is carried out normally
this behaviour is not prominent but "when using break points and inspecting the values of the variables and table object to be added to context, it is clear that all the previous actions take place again. even when the datacotext. savechanges is called, even after that still all actions carried out on the datacontext repeat themseleves, when any new action is to be carried out
I have a this program I have to write but I have no clue where to even start.New Years Ball Drop?Design a program that replicates the Times Square New Year�s Eve ball drop. You can use a picture from the Internet of the ball you wish to use.Functionality Requirements:
-The ball will take exactly 30 seconds to move down the pole
-Need a timer to count down from 30 and reach 0 when the ball is at the end of the pole
-The timer will randomly change colour every few seconds
- When the ball has finished descending, the text �Happy New Year!� will display on the screen
-Need a button on the form that, when clicked, stops the ball drop and timer (so screenshots can be taken). When the button is clicked again, the timer and ball drop should resume from where it left off.
Trying to create a button that when clicked will check to see if a certain process image is running and if that process is running give the process focus. If the process is not running then start the application.
Quick question - if I have a timer set to 5000 (5 seconds) and the code in the timer takes longer than 5 seconds to run because of sql stuff, will the timer wait until the code is done till it fires again?
Whats happening is I run the code below and get the following error "The system cannot find the file specified". I've read that with UseShellExecute set to false that you can't use WorkingDirectory.
Dim Password As String = "password" Dim SecureStringPassword As New System.Security.SecureString For Each c As Char In Password
1)i don't know how to make my piano play a file while the button is clicked only instead of playing a file to media-player until it has ended!2)Also i dont know how to make the mediaplayer play the file from my.resources i added instead of the my files on the c:example.wav.
I've designed an Order Entry System and now I'd like to send an email when an Order has been saved to the Database. I could probably do it from the client machine pretty well, but really what I was looking for was to inform another program running on the server that an Order has been saved into the database with OrderID:xyz. And have that program take care of sending the email. I have no problem designing this second program, in terms of the basics of responding to an event and sending an email. But my question is: how do I raise an event across the network that this other program will respond to?
