C# - Isn't .NET's Integer Just Simply Based On Two's Complement System
May 18, 2012
MSDN: Int32 values are represented in 31 bits, with the thirty-second bit used as a sign bit. Positive values are represented by using sign-and-magnitude representation. Negative values are in two's complement representation. Isn't it true that the representation of positive values using sign-and-magnitude system is identical to the representation of positive values using two's complement system? So shouldn't it have been rewritten as: "Int32 values (regardless of positive or negative) are represented in two's complement representation",

How can I implement a two's complement in VB.NET using unsigned integer types such as Byte, UShort, UInteger and ULong? Can I cast a UInteger to an Integer?

I am new to EF Linq and I have been struggling with this query for a few days. From reading this forum, I have managed to get this far:
Dim noPic = (From f In myEntities.FriendLists
Where (f.UserID = Profile.ID)
Select f.FriendID).Except(From g In myEntities.GuestLists
Where g.EventID = _id
Select g.FriendID)
[Code]...
I am trying to get everybody from the FriendList who is not already on the GuestList to display in a Repeater control. After reading the forum I was able to append .First() to noPic at the myNoPic declaration and finally get a result but that only gave me the first element. Does anybody have any advice on how to accomplish this?

I have had several occasions recently to access a specific class several times over a relatively small time frame.So I've been storing the value of the class in Session and trying to access it on page load, if it's not available creating a new instance and storing that in session.
So instead of constantly replicating the same code for different classes on different pages I'm trying to create an extension method to do this for me.
[Code]...
I'm stuck on what to do when I make my new instance of my class (it would have to have a New() sub)
I'm not sure where to go from here... or even if this is the best way to do it.

I have a form with a large number of buttons on it, each named btn1 through btn25. I have another button that is generating a random number and saving it to an integer variable intDrawn.
I'd like to know if there's a simple way to alter a particular button based on the result in intDrawn; if intDrawn = 5, then I want to change the font in btn5, for example.
Is there a way to alter a control programmatically like this? I'm using Visual Basic Express 2008.

Is there an easy way to get the relative complement of two sets? Perhaps using LINQ?I have to find the relative compliment of a set A relative to B. Both A and B are of type HashSet<T> but I think the algorithm could be made more general (IEnumerable<T> or even ISet<T>)?

I am looking to convert an integer into a boolean array where each item in the array corresponds to a bit in the binary representation of the integer.
MyInteger = 3 '011 in binary
to
MyArray(2) = False
MyArray(1) = True
MyArray(0) = True
Also is there anyway to assign a value to an Integer in binary or hex (like MyInteger = 1010b or MyInteger = A7h)?

how I can control the tool tip popup or make calls to the text that displays based on a integer value. I'm wanting it to display a text based on a interger value inside an if statment for a picture box. So if the ingteger = 1 then tooltip.text = "" else tooltip.text = "" but that is not the correct syntax.

When I try and compile code in vb.net 2008 I get an error that says "value of type 'system.drawing.image' cannot be converted to integer. The error happens at piccolor.image
GetDIBits(Form1.PictureBox1.Handle,
picColor.Image , _
0, Form1.PictureBox1.Height, pixels(1, 1, 1), _
bitmap_info, DIB_RGB_COLORS)
Here's the code that explains what piccolor.image is, it's a picturebox on form1 that has an image
readpic(Form1.PictureBox1)
Public Function readpic(ByVal picColor As PictureBox)
GetDIBits(Form1.PictureBox1.Handle,
picColor.Image , _
0, Form1.PictureBox1.Height, pixels(1, 1, 1), _
[Code] .....
And Imports System.Runtime.InteropServices is on the top of the module, if u need more code then let me know. Also I wonder if there is a way to bitblt directly to a pixel array.

I've written a pretty good browser in vb.net (it's in the "Share your Project" forum). I now want to give users and other developers the ability to extend/add buttons & functions to it. Can anyone suggest to me a good way of implementing this bearing in mind that I've never tried to do anything like this before? (so basically a way of implementing a plug-in based system. I was planning on these being small snippets of code which my application has the ability to compile.)

I'm passing a type name and some parameters from C# code into a navigation framework written in VB. The navigation framework looks for a constructor on the type that matches the parameters passed in using Type.GetConstructor(Types()). The constructor that I'm looking for expects an array of integers Integer() in vb. But it gets an array of System.Int32. I've gone so far as to try this:
[Code]...
And the VB code still sees System.Int32 on the other end, which means that it doesn't find the constructor.

What I want to do is basically have a column that ranks the users so if there were 10 people it would rank the person with the highest sales 10 and the second highest 9 and so on. Theres not always going to be 10 employees
I am using a stored procedure along with a sqldatasource to connect to my stored procedure. To get all the data for each agent, then I am using functions like
Dim TotalSales As Decimal = 0.0
Function GetTotalSales(ByVal Price As Decimal) As Decimal
TotalSales += Price
[Code]....
and then some how sort the array list and print the index of the agents sales total?

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.

I have asked questions about this before but my program has came to cross roads where I require more flexibility in my security procedures.At the moment I generate a specific key based on certain details about the system, and I hash this data to file, which ensures it will only run on this system.
However it has now got to the point where I have a need for providing keys which will carry settings for the program within the key. So that if a customer wants an update its the matter of sending an updated key, which will allow certain areas of the program to be unlocked/locked.Obviously I can no longer use the hash, as it can't be decrypted. I am looking to use key encryption system, which will allow to encrypt data within a license key. But obviously it brings the problem of where to store Crypt & decrypt key within the program.

I'm looking for some advice for an application I currently developing. I'll try to keep this as brief as possible so if additional info is need just let me know.I'm developing an Winforms based event tracking system using VB.Net (VS 2008 Pro). The application collects data via serial bar code scanners and stores this data within a MS SQL Express db located on the same Windows XP Pro workstation that the application is installed on. When the application receives the formatted string of data it checks the db table and sends a reply back to the device indicating whether the data is a duplicate. I have written a PortManager class to handle the serial based devices and this functionality is working well.
I have now been asked to incorporate a new type of collection device into the system. The new device is running embedded Linux and uses TCPIP (POE) rather than serial communication. The device manufacture has assured me he can provide a string from the devices integrated scanner in the same format as my serial based devices.
If possible, I would like to utilize the current application and just add the ability to use the TCPIP devices to it. I was thinking it might be possible to just add a new class (similar to my Port Manager class) to handle the TCPIP based devices.I'm really at a loss as to the best way to approach this. I'm just not that familiar with collecting data from a Winforms application using a TCPIP based device.

I am reading the memory from a game and I have managed to find the x,y,z values of the player (z is irrelevant). Now I am trying to make some sort of a waypoint system and I thought it would be best to make a small coordinate based map that will act as a birds-eye view of whats going on ingame. But I don't know where to begin creating this thing, since it needs tons of xyz values.Just throwing this in here since I've already made the thread:I also want a small circle to represent the player that will turn, facing waypoint 1 and move in a straight line towards it.
