In app.config, I supply a cycle string value: "Monday", "Tuesday", ..., "Daily". From that value I wanted to assign a <Flags()> enum. Simply using DayOfWeek does not give me the ability to flag a process as a daily routine. Is there an available .Net class that does provide the day of week as a flag?
In the meantime, I devised the following:
<Flags()> _
Public Enum enumExportCycle As Integer
Monday = DayOfWeek.Monday
I was wondering if there was a way to directly convert the integer DayOfWeek returns into a string representing the day like Monday, Tuesday etc.
Sample code:
MessageBox.Show(Date.Today.DayOfWeek)
This will return 6 (as of today). Is there a way to directly convert this into Saturday, for example? I don't really care what it really converts it into, but I want to do away with my Select Case:
Select Case Date.Today.DayOfWeek Case 1 day = "Monday"
I have a need to get the number of CPU cycles used by a specific process using C# (or VB.Net). This information is available in the Process properties popup within Sysinternal's Process Explorer. For instance, the browser that I'm using the post this message has currently used 18,521,360,165 cyles (give or take a few hundred million). Does anyone know how to get this information from a .Net app? I know how to get the CPU usage (percentage), but this isn't what I'm looking for. I need a way to compare CPU usage between two different processes running at different times.
with a college assignment. We are to make a program for a school class. It is on Flags of Europe. A Picture Viewer should show a flag and the students must type what the flag is in a text box. If it is correct it must say so in a label and display the next flag. I want it to add the correct answers the student got out of 10 flags.
I'm trying to declare an enumeration and one of the names I'd like to use for an item is not usable apparently. Where I am declaring 'STEP = 3', I get this error message in visual studio: "Statement cannot appear within an Enum body. End of statement expected." Is it possible to use STEP as an item name somehow? [Code]
I can't seem to get something that seems pretty simple to work. I have a dropdown that has options like 'Every Monday and Tuesday' which would have a value of '12' (1 for Monday and 2 for Tuesday). In vb I then have a variable (sd as Date). What I need to do is see if the DayOfWeek for the variable is in the dropdown selected value (sort of like 'dropdown.selectedvalue.indexof(sd.dayofweek)'). Indexof returns either Nothing or an integer correct? Below is the specific code
Dim dow As Integer = sd.DayOfWeek If (dropdown.SelectedValue.IndexOf(dow.ToString) = Nothing) Then
I am trying to figure out if the DayOfWeek Enumeration list can be sorted by using the integer value (ie Sunday = 0). Ultimately I want to take the DayOfWeek Enumeration list and population a dropdownlist with the days of the week from Sunday - Monday and I do not want to hard code the items in the HTML markup. Is this possible?
Finding the right way to code my program. I want to have the Now.DayOfWeek updated every 60 sec, as it only update on startup. I have been trying many diffident solutions but just can seem to find one which works.

Which is better, using a nullable enum or adding the value None=0 to your enum list?Using nullables requires more code, but I kind of like it since it forces me to think about the possibility. Otherwise I'm liable to forget about the None enum and fail to account for it being a special case.
For some reason, the next code found on MSDN crashes or exits after 30 cycles or, in other words, after processing 30th Property, exits without explanation. As I said, I found it in MSDN

Whats the syntax for 'Not Null' or for when a field contains a value? I'm trying to make a flag be set when a textbox contains a value, but I don't know how to write the code to do this.
I am working with a bowling scores program that displays a high score, a low score, and an average. I need to know what flag to use to end the loop. If I use a number, that messes up the values I need.
I'm taking a course in Visual Basic 2010 and I'm trying to get a grasp on this new term called a flag. I kind of understand that it has something to do with a boolean condition. I don't quite understand what a flag is. I see references to it using the term flag. I understand it has something to do when a boolean, a condition triggers a flag. But what is the flag.
I have a form that cycles through a database table with next and prev buttons Database name is "China.accb" and the table is called Users Table Users has two fields, both text.One is called UserID and the otheris Password"am getting an error message when I try to click the next button that states: "Unable to cast object of type "System.String' to type System.Windows.Forms.Textbox'. I've highlighted the line causing the error below

I have written a windows service that is meant to launch a notepad when a specific action happens. The problem i have is that even though the service launches notepad, the actual notepad it self is NOT visible. I know that it has been launced because i can see the process in the task manager. By the way the process is listed as a SYSTEM process rather than a process under my user name (i believe that is because my process is a "LocalSystem" one).
I'm using LuaInterface for .NET to create Windows Forms objects. This works pretty good except for one thing:I want to use the Anchor property of Control to make them resize automatically. If I only set one of the Anchors (e.g. only AnchorStyles.Top), it works, but this doesn't really make sense. I have to set more than one Anchor, which is done by combining them with "bit-wise or" (or by just adding them numerically).
In VB.Net both works: Dim myLabel As New Label() myLabel.Anchor = AnchorStyles.Top[code]....
which is in a sense correct as "LuaInterface treats enumeration values as fields of the corresponding enumeration typ" (says LuaInterface: Scripting the .NET CLR with Lua).It is also not possible to assign the value as a number:
How to get the flag icon to a ip adress ? For example, you add a textbox, a button and a picturebox, and the textbox should contain a website[url]... And when you press the button, a function getts the ip adress of the url, and setts the picturebox image to the contry flag icon.
I'm trying to use lambdas in some VB.Net code, essentially I'm trying to set a flag when databound is called.
Simplified it looks like this: Dim dropdownlist As New DropDownList() dropdownlist.DataSource = New String() {"one", "two"} Dim databoundCalled As Boolean = False AddHandler dropdownlist.DataBound, Function(o, e) (databoundCalled = True) dropdownlist.DataBind()
My understanding is that the databoundCalled variable should be set to true, clearly I'm missing something as the variable always remains false.
I need to set a variable , say Flag=1 when a button is clicked.
How do i set the Flag=1 and this variable can be used in OTHER application? Meaning this Flag is set in Program A, then Program B will use this variable (always updated value). I wrote application in VB.NET.
I think app.config isn't that good (use the add key="" value "" ) because when program is executing, it will lock the app.config file.
This Flag variable will be changed according user input (button click) and i try to make this variable use across other application. How to do this?
i am trying to find out how it shuffles the number 1, 2, 3 and 4 without repeating the same number within the series. So far, I think that "i" begins as 1 and RN is a randomized number between 1 and 4. The do while loop checks if "i" is the same as RN and spits out the flag as true or false. Then "i" is increased 1 at a time and so does the number of elements in the array. I believe that the array a(4) and the for loop does something that "remembers" the same numerical value not to be repeated. I'm not sure exactly what the for loop does and how the flag make this thing work.
Lets say, a case where i=1 and the RN=3, the flag becomes false. Therefore, a(1)=3. Then, i increments by 1 and a(j) becomes a(2), which puts out the values 1 and 2. Since both numbers are flag=false, it increments again. Because a(i) = RN, a(2) becomes = 3. How can this be? It has a(1) equal to 3 and a(2) also equal to 3. Each array is supposed to have NON-OVERLAPPING numbers.
The result of doing shuffle() is a random set of numbers that don't overlap:
1234, 1243, 1342, 1324, 2341, 3412, 4321, 3214, and so on. but never 1111, 1112, 3333 or 3242.
To find out how exactly it works, I tried to delete some lines, tweak the numbers. The result of that is either numbers change to repeats, all zeros or a logical error. The following is the code placed in the module and can be used for other forms and in this case it is used for the labels in form1 windows form:
Sub Shuffle() Dim a(4), i, j, RN As Integer Dim flag As Boolean
I have a Windows Form in which I started two threads and then close the form and threads continue their works. How can I abort first thread when the second thread stops?I made the first thread IsBackground,but the second thread is not the only thread of program and the first thread is started in another thread(form) that is closed and not exists anymore,in addition I can't set Flag of a Class that doesn't exist.
