My program needs to monitor two folders and if any files arrives in any of those it needs to be processed.So i created two filewatch tasks & the OnChanged event for both This does not work when the files are already in the folders before i start to run my program.It works for just the new files coming in.having a for each loop files loop in the onChanged event will this work I would like to know what's the best way to achieve this

View 3 RepliesI have a .NET customer framework that functions much like a Workflow. It uses reflection to get a listing of all of the processes it is capable of from a specific folder, and starts them via reflection with a known start point (all of them have a method called "Process"). Since these files are only called to do the processing and not part of the compile... is there a way for me to be able to drop in a new reference library (DLL) for one of the processes that is being updated without restarting the whole process?[code]...

View 7 RepliesI have created tool which performs batch processing on files that are selected. The sub routine I have defined in the code, now I want to implement a way through which I can select actions that I want to perform and then perform the actions. For example the list has multiple actions, like Open, Close, SaveAs, Resize, Color Correct etc. I should be able to select what all I want to do on each file and then perform this actions. Someone suggested me using delegates for this, but I cant use that since all my functions have different parameters. Ither option I had is to use a nested IfElse or Switch to determine which action is selected and call function according to it, but thats to heavy I think, is there any optimized a better way to do this.???

I just learned some basics of multi threading in VB.net recently as I came across processing a large List of records and inserting them into SQL database one by one.

Itemlists is a global lists i retrieved from database, everything looks fine to me but when i run this program, I found that the threads are inserting one records 9 times into the database(I have 9 threads in total), which makes me think that maybe i need to specifically assign 1/9 of a list to each thread? Is there another way to do it which doesn't require the splitting of the list, if not , how do i split it then assign?
2008 Array Processing and Sequential File Processing
View 14 RepliesIm a college student and this is my first programming class, i am having extremely diffcult time with arrays and sequential file processing. Im not asking for the whole program, just something to get me started and hints along as i progress with it. Please help me get started on my program, its due in 2 days.
Here are the requirements....
1. The program must input any number of individual�s last and first names using two separate textboxes.
2. The array of names must be sorted by the last name using a bubble sort. You must code the sort.
3. The program must be able to recall the names from the file and add to the existing list of names so that more names can be added to, sorted, and written back to the file in sorted order.
4. Sort in ascending order: A to Z
5. All names must be displayed in a listbox in sorted order when the user wishes to see them.
6. In the listbox the last and first names must be separated by a comma and a space. Example: Smith, Mary
7. The user must be able to search for a name in the array, using the binary search algorithm. You must code the search.
8. Do not use module-level variables. Instead you may choose to use Static.
9. The program must be designed using Visual Basic 2008

I have been creating a program that copies and moves files from folder to folder; I am using this sort of code;
fileToCopy.CopyTo("path here...")
or
FileToMove.MoveTo("path here...")
My problem is, when I am copying or moving a large file, It's taking so much time and my program is hanging until all the files are completely moved or copied. How about, using a progressbar instead, so that the user will be able to see the progress of copying and moving instead of the program freezing?
I have a text file with 12 lines. Each line has different data and I want to compare line 1 with an original string, then line 2 with the original string, line 3 witht he original string and so on. Not sure how to read each line from the text file.

For refrence the clients folder is always situated in same place which is client filesclientID where clientID is the clients unique Id on the database.
I as seeking to move 10 file every 10 minutes from one folder to another using .NET (vb c#) I am was thinking that i could of achieve this with LINQ query, but i cant get my head around this would there be a solution with LINQ or otherwise that can select the last 10 files form or top 10 files. so that i can move only these files from Directory1 ( the big pool of files) into director 2 ( a smaller more manageable pool of files).If all fails- then i wll manually have to copy or cut to at a time.
View 1 RepliesI am making a program that takes files (inside their folders) and copies them into a selected file path. For example, I plug in my jump drive, run my program and it copies my files on the jump drive over to my PC. Now my program does this but it takes the files inside each folder in my jump drive instead of creating a folder for each one in my jump drive. The result is a mess of files in the selected pathway in my PC.I went and created variables in My.settings so that you can save the file path even after you close the program. I just want the program to copy the folders(with the files in each folder) in my jump drive and move them over to my PC.I am using this program copy the files from my jump drive over to my PC, because I save a lot of work on my jump drive and I need to back it up often.

View 4 RepliesI am having trouble opening my vb.net 2005 project from a backed up copy on a hard drive. The original files are on my old XP computer which I no longer have access to. I am trying to open the project in vb.net 2010 on Win7. I have converted the project to vb.net 2010 and when I open the file, nothing shows up, when I try to open them, it tells me the form isn't found in the project directory because it's been moved or deleted. I know that the software on the hard drive didn't back up .exe files, I'm not sure if it did back up other kinds of files. I don't want to restart the project because I've spent over a year on it and have written over 3000 lines of code on it.

View 11 RepliesAt the moment, my project has a method do_job(jobid,userid)
This method take a minute or two, and then redirects to another page. This has been rewritten so that it now runs in the background and redirects to another page whilst the thread which do_job is on continues. - This works fine. In a button_click event in a default.aspx page :
Dim d as New do_job_delegate(AddressOf do_job)
d.BeginInvoke(jobid,userid, New AsyncCallback(AddressOf Callback),d)
Response.redirect("results.aspx")
[Code]....
So what i want to happen is - the longest time that do_job takes is the longest time of the longest job (30 seconds), rather than - 30 seconds x number of jobs = time it takes at the moment.
As i'm already using a delegate to detact the process from the ui, can anyone provide any advice/best practice on how i should rearrange my do_job method so that it can handle concurrent tasks to further boost the overall speed.
Is there any way of doing parallel processing in VB.net. Like running a IF-ELSE and CASE in parallel.
