Replace the timer with a dedicated low-priority thread that loops with a long sleep. When creating a thread, always have a try-catch in the executing code that at least writes the ex.ToString() to the debugger.

If you are watching processes you own, then you could opt to have those processes not only log to a table, but simultaneous update a memory-mapped file. Updating from there whenever there's a change might be a bit faster. You'd also want to broadcast some event whenever you do such an update - the display-app need not poll if it can wait for such an event.
Aight, forget the memory-mapped file; your display-app could be updated over TCP/IP whenever there is something to report.

Try and catch in every thread, and give each thread a decent name. Helps in debugging

Thanks Eddy, all good looking stuff, but what do you mean by "your display-app could be updated over TCP/IP"? I can add a callback to the WCF, but the WCF calls code all over town that logs stuff. It would take some work to make the WCF code aware whenever any one of my libraries logs something.
Just BTW, the logging all goes through NLog. That has something like a `MemoryTarget` somewhere, which does raise an event, but then I have to use one logger in all my library code, and have that injected from a core instance in the WCF code itself. Not a train smash, but I'll have to do some Unity refresher reading, and just hold thumbs I can get that working without introducing more bugs.

I don't know WCF, but I'm familiar with remote debugging. It's essentially a OutputDebugString over the network.

..here I don't know what a core instance is. Do me a favor, write an article on the code once it works

I've decided to rather stick with a timer for now, because there is a massive amount of logging going on here, and with a timer I can more easily ignore it if I prefer, instead of getting too wrapped in with something that only occasionally needs to be observed real time.
The mysterious "core instance" is just a bad term I used to describe the uncertainty I had over whether it should be a singleton, or a new instance for each injectee, but made by a factory that is a singleton, or maybe just conjured up by Unity or something.
There are so many blog rants paired with educational articles built up around this project it's not funny. I started late today (writing a blog, that is) but won't easily be able to stop. Just let it flow.

"some object"

Often tied to a platform, specific logger, or the one example on how to inject a logger.

As I typed, I had a vision of "some object" sitting quietly in the corner, but emanating out into the furthest reaches of the least covered library code. This suggested a name with some more meaning.
I am indeed using WordPress, but I kept my eye quite firmly on the "Save a draft" button until I closed that tab.

Background: I am familiar with C# also Winforms - also did some programming there. Also familiar with Java. (Also bit of HTML)
Now,I wanted to decide which to learn Android development or ASP.NET MVC.
But your advice would be very valuable since I can't learn the two at the same time. Given my background which of them needs less commitment? Which requires less effort? In which there is less information to process? (I am asking like this because I have some other commitments at this stage too).
nb: Also I was but hesitant initially whether I liked web development (never tried though) - that is why I thought about Android because it resembles more desktop development I believe, due to API usage etc; and I know I like C# and Java should be fine too.
I would really appreciate your input. Because in my country the direction I am currently working in is not very demanded (C embedded, and bit of C++).

I love how ridiculous questions like these are.
Why? Well, it's easy. We don't know you. We have no idea what your REAL background is. We have no idea what you really know, what your skill set is really like, how fast you pickup new stuff, how well you apply your previous experience, ..., NOTHING.

Why did I just say that? See above.
For my current project at work, I had to learn Entity Framework, MVC, ASP.NET, Razor, javascript, HTML5, Kendo UI, jQuery, ... , oh and, at home, I'm teaching myself digital electronics, constructing USB controllers, PIC microcontrollers, Windows Drivers, kernel debugging, ... ALL AT THE SAME TIME!
Who gives a sh*t where your country is headed as far as demand? The real question is what do YOU want to do? Where do YOU want to take your skills?

I really advise you to calm down. There is nothing ridiculous going on here, except your reply!
Now, relax, read the question once more - try to
grasp what was asked there and then reply, without
your silly remarks please.
To get a hint how the proper reply should look like
please look on replies on Android forum - I posted it
there also (hope didn't violate any rules - people
there understood what I wanted unlike you).
Anyway, please let's end our discussion here
you show no sign whatsoever that it may make
sense to continue dialogue with you.
ps and please don't pollute the Android forum
in case you think up to post something there
with intent to spoil things.
pps I already gave you idea about my background
in the opening of my question

Really?
What if I told you it should take you 3 days to pickup ASP.NET/MVC and it didn't. It took you say, 3 months. What then?
How would you measure "effort" in a quantitative fashion, independent of individual abilities and experience?
All I'm saying is that YOU are the only person on this planet that can answer your question and the only way you're going to get a feel for how long it's going to take to be productive in your next project is to just jump right in.
Nobody ever stops learning this stuff so there is no way to "complete" the studying. There is always stuff to learn, even if you've been working with the technology for years.

Your response is stupid.
Of course everything depends on everything, but you can always
do some estimates.
And tell a person a rough (reasonable) estimate.
For example, which is more to learn,
whole iOS SDK and to get familiar with it,
or just HTML syntax? Does this answer also depend?
I told you my background
and asked a simple question but you don't want to
understand it. Ok I am done here.

Forget any pain ... and go for the "gold".
If you're open to learning a new platform, I would suggest Android over any flavor of ASP.NET (MVC; Forms).
"Freelance" Android opportunities are currently running around 10 to 1 compared to ASP.NET.
(Freelance is all I do; if you're really interested in a "corporate" job, then the spread is probably smaller).
Go for a steady income ... then start looking for other things to do if you're not having enough fun.
(Keeping in mind than if you do decide to concentrate on sharpening your C# skills, you can transfer those to Android via Xamarin's cross-platform development software).

Indeed. I have been woefully scanning past the tons of Android jobs in my freelance notification emails, looking for the one or two .NET jobs. Time to fire up Android Studio again and get learning.

I agree with Dave, there is no way anyone on this planet can answer your question. Maybe you have a natural ability for one technology but not the other. Maybe you find one interesting but not the other. Maybe one resembles another technology you have used previously but not the other.
No one on this or any other forum can give you anything other than guess based on their own personal experience.
My advice would be to spend some time learning BOTH and see how you get on.

how can we convert a code written in c# into matlab??
any idea?
|
|
|
|
|
By using an online Converter[^], or rewriting it by hand.
MATLAB will not have all the functionality of the .NET framework though.

Hi everybody  !
I am looking for an automated tool or script that will take a huge Borland C++ buider project and convert it into Visual Studio .NET project. A full conversion is not necessary, rather a starting point for manual intervention.
So, after researches, i focused on the vcl conversion part to .Net, win api, so i want to know if is there a tool that can do this , at worst, just partially,

Really? How is anyone supposed to answer that "question"? You haven't provided any details at all about what error you're getting.

Install the Crystal Report Viewer?
