For my applications I created a class to produce custom cursors. One of them is a waitcursor with a percentage in it. It has several backgrounds each one with a filled circle on it and they are positioned in a circle it self (a bit like the java wait thingy). Since I put it in my application I started to get errors at different places in my code, but all related to some memmory problems.

I want to change my form Cursors to custom Cursors I add a Cursor file in my project but i don't know how can i change the Cursor.I'm using VS 2005 .net Professional.

I have a new problem with this same Form Printing project and I get exactly the same exception but from the different point of code:
line 538: d.PrintFunction(c, typePrint, mp, x, y, extendedHeight, ScanForChildControls)
The exception type is System.AccessViolationException and it says (after I translate it from my own language in which the message is given in my pc, into English):"Protected memory was tried to be read or written. This often indicates that the other memory is damaged"
I've been working on a few large custom controls, and I noticed that when I use them, my memory starts ballooning. If I add a control at runtime, it increases the memory, but when I remove the control, it decreases less than it increased. However, it would stop balooning at some higher value. So if go back in forth between pages (which adds and removes the control), the memory would look something like this:
1,000K|5,000K|4,000K|9,000K|8,000K... 20,000K|25,000K|21,000K|25,000K|21,000K|25,000K... etc I know it takes a while for the GC to run, but the memory would stay consistantly high for long periods of time.
I tried writing a Closing routine, where when I called it, the control looped trhough its children and disposed all the internal controls, which seemed to help a little, but the memory after running the control and disposing was still much higher than before running the control. I also use custom event addhandlers. Should I remove all these as well. It would be nice if I received a little guidance on this.
I'm making a custom class that mocks the System.Drawing.Rectangle class because the Rectangle class doesn't have a name property. I need a name property because I am adding all of my rectangles to a collection and I need a little more info stored than just their locale and size. So I changed the _onPaint event but nothing is working out when I run the program?
Public Class Rectanglar : Inherits UserControl
Public BackgroundColor As Color = Color.Blue
Public Sub New(ByVal name As String, ByVal XY As Point, ByVal Widthy As Integer, ByVal Heighty As Integer)

This is a very simple UDP Listener class. I can add it to my applications and give them the ability to accept a text command from a UDP packet. I use it for simple, insecure, non-vital communication between a couple apps. The code as written here works--except it has a memory leak. The program's memory usage will slowly build until it crashes. I believe I'm doing something wrong with the way I do the udp.receive method or perhaps the threading? I was trying to keep it as simple as possible when I wrote this, but let me know if I'm doing anything wonky here.

I have a vb net program that shows a datagridview which pulls data from a mySQL database. When the user clicks on a row (I am checking for a 'cellclick' event), a text box is filled with data from a hidden column in the datagridview. This works fine and runs without error, BUT...When I use the cursor keys to move the selection up or down, the row highlight changes, but doesn't update the text box. I realise that this is because I am looking for a 'cellclick' event, but I don't know how to look for cursor keys as well.
Please could someone tell me what event I should be looking for to capture input via both mouse click and cursor. I have changed the program so it updates the second dgv on 'selectionchanged' but this crashes at run time with an InvalidCastException.Alternatively, is it possible to stop the user using the cursor keys?
This is my 50th attempt to read the memory and probably my last attempt if I don't succeed now T_T I've been trying to write a class that reads from the memory, simply by creating wrappers around the Win32 APIs but I just can't get it to work.
This is how I currently am trying to read the memory from calc.exe:
Public Function ReadMemory(ByVal hProcess As IntPtr, ByVal lpBaseAddress As IntPtr, ByVal nSize As Integer, ByVal lpNumberOfBytesRead As Integer) As String
Dim tmpBuff As Single = 0

I'm working on an app, this is my third or fourth, but this one is throwing me for a loop(I'm in no way trained in VB btw...)Here's a pic of the app:
The whole point is to use the "<" & ">" buttons to move the cursor left and right. When you do, it highlights a single character as it moves. Then, once you select a color button, it adds a special character BEFORE the highlighter character.
Ex: Help = He^6lp ^6 being one of the colors.
I don't even know where to start
I have been searching for memory leaks in my application and come down to this weirdness. I have a class which implements IDisposable and one single event in it as shown below:[code]
View 1 RepliesDoes a the size of the class affect the memory usage of the application? is it better to break big classes into smaller classes or just group them up into one big class.
View 2 RepliesI am using the cursor converter to set both
dim cCon as cursorconverter = new cursorconverter
me.cursor = cursorconverter.ConvertFrom(myCursor.cur)
and
windows.forms.cursor.current = cursorconverter.ConvertFrom(myCursor.cur)
the reason for setting both is that otherwise the cursor will not always have the desired appearance. I know that cursors can be rendered in color, like 3D-Bronze, windows animated, hands and variations.
How to find current positions of cursors in any textbox or listbox?

I have a map with a MapItemsControl in my WP7 app that contains pushpins bound to items in a collection of custom classes. The pushpins are bound to properties of the item in the collection via a DataTemplate.When an item is added to or removed from the collection, all pins display correctly, with properties as per bindings, but when just an items' properties are modified, the UI does not update. The bindings just seem to get values from the source item upon loading, but I'd like them to keep the UI elements updated when the source collection items' properties are updated.To illustrate, I'll create a similar example:
Heres a custom class:
Public Class Box
Property CurrentColor As Color
Property Location As GeoCoordinate
End Class
[code]....
Whenever I add or remove items from TempBoxes, the pins all render as they should (e.g. if I specify a color in the collection item, the pin shows the color).Tapping on the item triggers the BoxTouched sub, which causes the item's color to change in the collection, but the UI doesn't change (pin color stays the same).To get the UI to update the color, I have to get it to render the pins again, by adding something like this to BoxTouched:
BoxControl.ItemsSource = Nothing
BoxControl.ItemsSource = TempBoxes
I can't figure out why this does not work.

View 2 RepliesI recently had the problem of trying to store an enormous amount of decimal places in a variable. Someone suggested that I create my own class to handle this. However I have researched extensively and can't seem to find a suggestion as to how I would do this. Would I read each digit into a list? How would I get each digit as to loop through a decimal, for example, and add each digit would still only give me 28 decimal places

I have some questions regarding the dispose method as per custom classes.I imported a class using the upgrade tool and got introduced to the finalize method and this line of code within:

View 2 RepliesI created a custom class which just stores 3 byte values, (R G B to be exact), which constantly change. So my idea was to store that class in a HashSet, then create a new instance of the class (with different byte values) then add that to the HashSet. There can be duplicates, which is why I decided to use a HashSet, which will ignore an item if it's allready been added. Doing this on a List would be too slow.But I've ran into a problem. Adding a custom class to hashset seems to only allow 1 to be added. I assume this is because its hashing the class object while ignoring the data (byte rgb values) it contains? Is there a way around this? It's possible to convert the RGB to Color and just use that in the HashSet, but conversion is a bit too slow.

View 6 RepliesI'm trying to add validation to one of my class properties:[code]The value for the golfer's handicap comes from a oombo box on the form. Even if I have nothing set for this property at runtime, my validation doesn't work. I tried putting the If statement under Get instead of Set, and tried mHandicap = value after an Else in the If statement, but nothing seems to work. I'm working in the dark here and can't find anything suitable online. I was hoping to not go down the path of ReadOnly or WriteOnly properties as I'm not at that stage yet, but does this make a difference for my purposes here? Can anyone guide me as to what I'd need to do from this point? If I've got it right, you can add validation in the class and this means that you then don't need to repeat this validation in the form??
