I was trying to use the System.Threading.Timer to run a function every 250ms - but I'm finding it difficult to cancel the timer from within the callback function. I can't seem to find a reference to "this" (js has this - it's so nice). At any rate - how could I start a callback running 250ms from now - without a timer - and then if I want to continue it again do another start for 250ms.
View 3 RepliesI am trying to convert a DLL function call which has the Callback function routine called within the DLL function call.The DLL function call signature is like this:
typedef void *HANDLE;
typedef HANDLE HACQDESC;
DECLARE_HANDLE (HWND);

how to convert this DLL call to VB.NET and also how to create the callback function and send it as parameter to this function
call.
I have the below code. What happens if the Upload method takes more than one minute for completion? Does the timer kick off another call to the Upload method immediately after one minute is over or Does it wait until the method finishes executing? I am implementing this as a windows service.

Dim tmr As Timer = New Timer(New TimerCallback(AddressOf Upload), Nothing, 1000, 60000)

I'm trying to convert C++ API to VB.Net, but this function is too hard and i don't know how make it work.
Here is the API doc for this function:
void RemoteDllSetReceiver(void *inst, on_received_buffer_t received_buf_cb);
Sets a callback function to receive notifications from the DLL. The prototype of the callback is:
typedef bool (*on_received_buffer_t)(void* inst, const unsigned char *buffer, unsigned int size);
Where inst is the pointer originally passed to RemoteDllSetReceiver buffer & size contain the notification text as defined in the Remote Protocol. Note: notifications may arrive in different threads (e.g. network, timer, audio).
I can't imagine what i mus do with on_received_buffer_t, must it be a delegate? Like you can read, this functions returns notifications from the DLL like connection status, user id...
I'm trying to pass a callback function from a C++ dll to a VB.NET application.Here is my current C++ code :
void DLL_EXPORT registerEvent( void (*callBackFunction)(string str),string str)
{
callBackFunction(str);

void test(string str)

I am exposing some ISO C++ data types to .Net (mono on Linux to be precise).For the purpose of brevity, I shall refer to C# in my question, although my question relates to all of the .Net languages (with C# and VB.Net being my target languages). So far, I have worked out how to expose the ISO C++ data types in C# class(es) for use in mono -The only problem so far is how to deal with the C++ callbacks. In .Net languages (C# and Vb.Net), I believe 'delegates' are the callback equivalent.
Sticking with C# for now, can anyone recommend a way that I can register the C# delegate functions with my ISO C++ code.The ISO C++ code is a notification library, and I want to be able to "push" the notifications to the mono framework (i.e. C# delegates in this case).My underlying assumption is that the mechanism/steps to implement this would be the same for the .Net languages - I'll just have to code the actual delegates in the .Net language of choice - is that assumption correct?Last but not the least, is the question of thread saftey. The underlying ISO C++ code that I am exposing to .Net (mono to be more specific), is both re-ntrant and thread safe - do I have to do anything "extra" to call .Net delegate from my ISO C++ code?

A function is such that it calculates 5 values and stores them in a database. While storing them in the database it displays them in a textbox on the form. Now i want to display them one by one which it does. But it does it so fast that i can only see the last value that it enters in the database inside the textbox.
Can i make it show all the values slowly one by one.

I can't seem to get one of my functions to work based on a timer. Every tick of the timer, I'm trying to call a function which will start periodically taking screen shots until the 'Finish' button is pressed.

One of the errors included "Public Sub RunAC() does not have the same signature as delegate". This might be really obvious, I'm a recent Computer Programmer / Analyst graduate with intermediate VB.net experience.

I have successfully set up a timer in visual basic, see the code below. My timer uses case statements and at specific case/time it calls a function, 'ShuttleA'. 'ShuttleA' function, is a function that 'getskeystate', which inturn from the user interface tallies a response in a text box. My problem is that the program runs fine when calling the function at eg; at 10 seconds, case 10. But I want to be able to call the function e.g., at 8 seconds to 11 seconds. Or create a tolerance of e.g., 1 second either side of e.g., 10.

Basically, I want to create a timer for each row of data that will get returned by a SQL query:
SELECT * FROM Projects
I would want the timers to be called "Compteur" & ROWID. This really is necessary.I need them to have different Ticks and so that some can be enabled all at once. Basically it is for a project tracker to count the time you are working on the current project. However you could indeed work on many project at the same time.
this is my very first posting and I must say I am desperate. I have a VB assignment due in 2 days and I am so lost.

Now for Part B I am being asked to extend my program so that: A - My graphic can be drawn using different colour schemes designed by me but chosen by the user B - My graphic or an appropriate part of it can be animated around the picture box if the user chooses to do so. C - Error checking is included.
