I have the following code that connects to a server and expects data from it.Is it normal that working memory of my program increases every time I receive something from the server I connect to?The larger I make the network buffer, the more increase that is added to my working memory (in task manager)The data I receive is about 50 bytes. So I minimized that size of the buffer to 128.
View 1 RepliesMy application has 1 main form and three other forms which raise events to my main form. I noticed that the memory starts at 77,000 K and increases substationally over a few hours maby be to 250,000k and ever increases.The main form has a dataset and a bound datagridview which gets refreshed with data. Basically it's a taxi booking application. The booking form raises an event to the main form and the main form refreshes the jobs and displays them on the dgv.
View 8 RepliesI'm having an unusual problem that I've never had with WR's before. I have a very user-driven program that interacts with a server of mine through webrequests. Depending on what the user's doing, it could end up sending a dozen requests/minute. This has never been a problem before, but for some reason system memory usage increases and doesn't stop increasing, as if something is cluttering it up for every webrequest that is sent out.
Is there a known problem with WR's like this? Or is it just a random screw up? I can get my system back up and running smoothly.
I recently wrote a program that collects information from the network can displays it in a DGV for the user to see. I tested this on networks where I would end up with several thousand items brought back and all worked fine, very little memory increase and once the search had finished the memory usage went back to pretty much what it was before the search, so I assume I have no major memory leaks that I should be concerned about (I'm careful to always dispose of things and clear large variables where possible).
However, a new company has now started using my application and they have several hundred thousand items that my program will find. They reported that they leave the program running its search for a few hours and most of the time it crashes with an Out Of Memory exception. Now I did have my app do some caching of certain information to avoid querying the network more than was necessary so I thought well maybe this is what is causing it but I added an option to turn that off and they say it still happens. So the only thing I can see it being is simply the amount of data that the program is finding and having to store in memory.once my application has gathered information about the items it stores them in a List(Of MyItemClass) and then when the search is complete the items are added to the DGV. So I'm thinking maybe its just the size of this List(Of MyItemClass) that is simply getting too large. Bear in mind that each instance of MyItemClass in this List can have quite a lot of information in it as it has several properties that are List(Of String) that may contain a few thousand strings in some scenarios.How do you deal with such large amounts of data without running out of memory?I'm assuming the only option I have got is to 'page' some of the data to a temporary file on disk once I get over a certain number of items in the List(Of MyItemClass)?
I have tried to test out the add delete and save function on a datagridview but the data that I added during testing would disappear after I made some changes to the code.

I am working on a client/server application. Everything seems to go well for a while (a few hrs, a few mins its kind of random) then suddenly clients stop receiving data. maybe 1 or two, or all of them. in the end I end up having to restart the server piece to resolve it, but I am trying to understand why its doing this. I've added try catches around the send piece, but it doesnt error out. When the app fires, the listener is started on its own thread. When a new connection is made, that connection is passed to a class that handles all of my connection data(send/receive, responding to commands, etc). The class is started in its own thread, so each connection is running in its own memory space. This issue seems to happen with 1 client connected, or 20, it doesn't really seem to matter.
This causes other issues, like a customer who thinks he is disconnected, will shut down his app, which is supposed to send a command to close the connection on the server side which it does not., so now I have several "closed" connections still open on the server, which is obviously also bad. Another thing I dont get is that it worked fine when I was developing the pieces on my dev box, so I dont get why I have all of these "timeout" issues now. (I put that in quotes, because the timeout period is the default of 10 mins, and I xmit data, at LEAST every minute when the server pushes data updates to all clients)
Here is some of the relevant code
vb
'Command Object, this holds all of the command information being passed back and forth to tell the server what to do, and as well as hold the response.
'The strCMD is the command, strParms is the parameters of the command, obj is ANY object I want to send along with this information

I can receive data quite happily from the serial port but I don't appear to be able to send data to the device. The device works perfectly as I can test it using putty, I open putty select serial and select 1200 baud, the device immediately lights up and can send and receive. However when the port is set up and opened in VB the device doesn't light up so I can't send data to it but can receive data from it. According to the instructions I need to send either ASCII 'X' Hex '$58' or Decimal '88' to make the device ready.

I am developing an application which is pretty much a replacement of a hyperterminal. I am trying to send commands to the serial port using MSComm in VB6.0 When I type in on the hyperterminal h003128 I get a response OK. Or when I type in i003 it displays back some values.
What I am trying to figure out how do I send the h003128 via VB6. I believe I've undertood how to send data to the port. It seems I am not getting the correct formate. This wont work.. the formate iAAADDD where i = i AAA = 003 and DDD = 128 MSComm1.Output "i003128"
Opening and closing the port works fine, and as far as i can tell, the serial.write("blahblah") should be writing to the output buffer, but I am unable to test or verify this by reading it in. the commented "Receive data from serial port" and subsequent DoUpdate() function are where i am having trouble. It doesnt seem to actually be reading in the data if it is in fact writing it correctly.

I have a very basic knowledge of coding, just enough to understand some PicBASIC Pro and program a microchip to send the values of some variables to a PC via the com port. I've used a terminal utility like Hyperterm to confirm the right variables are being sent, so I thought it would be cool to have a custom application on the PC to display these variables, and possible set them via the application by writing the new one back to the PIC. So I downloaded VB express 2008 - and whilst it was "simple" to draw a box and add a few text boxes I'm lost at how to actually do anything practical with it

Could someone advise me in laymens terms exactly what I need to do inorder to populate the text boxes with the data from the PIC micro. Whilst I understand the basics about BASIC, I have no idea on things like classes etc
