Writing A Program Which Has To Perform Several Operations On Data Exported From A CAD Software?
Nov 11, 2010
I'm writing a program which has to perform several operations on data exported from a CAD software.The amount of data to be processed is huge and even by simplifying the program at maximum it will still take about 10-15 minutes for average models.
The operations are performed on an array from the first to the last element. Let's say for a list of 10 elements (as example) that I start from element 1 and I finish when element 10 has been computed. I thus thought that since I'm working on a 8 processor machine would be convenient to make use of multi-threading. My idea is, for the case of 10 elements, to make thread1 working from 1 to 5 and make thread2 working from 6 to 10.I already wrote a working code for a 2 thread process which is working, but I want to extend the number of threads and eventually decide in function of the threads available. The basic structure is given below:

I'm trying to figure out some Excel automation. I have a form set up so the user can click on a label to open an Excel file (as a background process I guess) so the file isn't actually visible. Once they click on the "Convert to Count" button it will multiply all the values in Column B by 1,250 and put the output in Column C. Once it has finished this action, it makes the file visible so the user can choose to save it or not. Also, some users have Excel 2003 and some have 2007. Would it be possible to be able to load both xls and xlsx?[URL]..I must say I am very new with .NET and have a little bit of knowledge with VB6. I'm not sure where to even begin. I've looked up some ways to load an excel file but couldn't get it to work the way I need it to. Most of the ways I found were loading the file into a DataGridView. I don't want to use a DataGridView if I don't have to. Some of the files the users might be loading could have 10,000+ rows and that would take too long I think.

I want to perform two hashing operations concurrently on a single file, without reading the file twice. Is there some way to share the FileStream between two synchronized hashing threads? For example:
Dim Stream As New IO.FileStream("...", IO.FileMode.Open)
Dim HashA, HashB As Byte()
Dim A = New System.Threading.Thread(Sub()
[code]....
Maybe some way of caching a stream? Trouble is, I don't want the entire file in memory at once (it could be many gigabytes in size) and I don't want the file read more than once, due to speed issues. I want the file cached only sufficiently to ensure that both threads can work.For example, suppose at some point in time, thread A had read 100k of the file, but thread B had only read 20k of the file. The portion of the file between 20k and 100k should be cached; but then progressively forgotten as thread B catches up. Then again, if thread B is too slow, we might still end up with hundreds of megabytes being cached.Maybe thread A should be made to wait while thread B catches up. Maybe the ReadByte() function of the stream should block for a while if one of the threads is too far behind?

Basically i am making a software that will be interacting with a database (sql).Now what i wanted is a loop which after every 30 minutes, connects to the database finds some info and executes a bunch of statements.For the sake of testing i have made the timer tick at 1 second, and display a record in a database in a label continuously just to see if it works (i will later make the tick 30 min)Now this is what i have tried till now , it prints the record in database perfectly after 5 seconds, but after that just fails.[code]I want to infinitely make a loop in which after every 30 minutes has passed it would connect to the database get a record and then use the value of that record to perform some operations. And this has to be done in the background.

I am working on a program to turn on devices at times of day and days of week. I am designing it for 15 devices and each device has a file. The problem I have is monitoring all 15 files. I can monitor each one and it works for that device, but only the device file I have called. I used data binding to create the files and can display the files one at a time, but I need to monitor the info on all 15 files actively.

I'm new to VB and Windows programming but I do have a fair amount of experience programming at the command line level. A friend is having problems with his laptop. He does a lot of speaking engagements with Powerpoint. His laptop uses the F7 key to toggle the output to his external monitor port to the video projector. The F7 key has stopped doing this. Is there a way to create a Windows program that will do this without using a DOS window? He is not familiar with command line processing and needs something that he can double-click.

I am trying to make a vb.net program which will perform WMI queries to check for remote computer's name and OS. I manage to do the first query of name using the code below..
[Code]...
I am getting error "Local variable 'query' is already declared in the current block. (BC30288)".I understand that I am using same name for the object variable for performing subsequent query. Is there a way in which I can dispose the variable completely and reuse it again for querying the new required WMI detail? My search in the net couldn't give me any clue as of how to clear the variable and use it again. The issue is with two variables "query" and "searcher". Is it only possible that I should give unique names to each query object variable as I might add more queries later on?

In my company we use Oracle Applications. Almoust every form in these applications have a common behaviour, which is:
Whenever the forms is opened one can immediately start entering data but one can also press F7, which makes the form to enter in query-mode. You can then fill one or more forms fileds with the data you are searching for and press F8, which executes the query and returns the data into the form. The query mode can be interrupted by pressing Ctrl+Q, returning to data entry mode.
My question is if there is a way of having similar behaviour on building VB forms. I'm using VS 2010.

I am attempting to have my program select a file, create DataTables and then perform some other functions. I want to be able to open another file and re-do the same steps.The problem I am having is that I add columns to my Datatables and when I try and to open another file while one is already open I get a message that a column of xyz is already added how do I properly "clear my datatable" or perhaps that isnt even the correct approach? Here is the code I have that Opens a File

I'm trying to write some documentation for a webservice that has been provided by one of our vendors for an application we're integrating. A bunch of the interface is custom objects defined in the web service itself. The vendor has put up significant resistance to providing any documentation for this application and so I've taken it upon myself to do their job for them [against my better judgement]. The documentation they have provided frankly is embarrassing and I'm trying to make as short work of this as I possibly can to put some good quality docs together.
I know that as I don't have access to their source, I can't just run it through nDoc/Sandcastle to spit out an API doc, but I was wondering if (as a half way house) there was an easy way to export the intellisense to a text file without me having to write a utility to specifically iterate through each of the object types defined and reflect the members out to text? If I could do this, it would at least make sure that I have a good quality document structure where I can just fill in the blanks. Having to skip back and forth to Visual Studio to check the intellisense for every class member is a very laborious way of doing this.

GetProcAddress Function Retrieves the address of an exported function or variable from the specified dynamic-link library (DLL).Lets say I have something like this:
Dim moduleHandle As Integer = LoadLibrary("C:myDLL.dll")
Dim methodName As String = ""
GetProcAddress(moduleHandle, methodName)
DLL should be win32 standard dll or .net dll.
How can I run the exported function if I have the address of it through GetProcAddress().If someone could supply some code it would be great.

I wrote the code and it runs through it perfectly, the problem is that it will only save it to the database temporarily. So once I close down visual studio for the night and come back to it what's been entered is gone. It's not a published program still in debug mode but I've not run into this before. I have another program I'm working on that I'm running purely in debug mode and it works flawlessly. The code between the two is the same cause I just copied it and changed the parameters. Any ideas? I'm using an sql mdf btw.I should clarify, don't know if it matters or not, that the DB that is working is in SQL server whereas the DB I'm having trouble with is a mdf that I added into the program.
