Your code is vulnerable to SQL Injection[^].
NEVER use string concatenation to build a SQL query. ALWAYS use a parameterized query.
string select = "SELECT DISTINCT * FROM questions WHERE id = @id LIMIT 1";
SQLiteCommand cmd = new SQLiteCommand(select, Conexiune.getConnection());
cmd.CommandType = CommandType.Text;
cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@id", idi);

I have a new file every few seconds that looks like this: 23 45 21 1 9 23 42 22 40 11 33 32 18 11 12 32 22 7 37 30 in this text file to be read there is one number per line that will be between 1-40. these files are generated several times a minute. I am trying to order them ascending with stringreader and writer. my logic must be flawed as nothing shows up in this file i intended to send it to, i selected append= true but still nothing is populated in my sorted file. the goal was to read from the text file with the for loop which contains 1-40 int variables and compare that to each string or int from the file read and when found copy that from the read file into the sorted file in sorted order,I have been looking at it for a while and it should work but does not please help i have hit a brick wall and don't see why it does not work. would this be easier with the file reader/writer classes or streamreader/writer as i have done,thanks
public static void ProcessDirectory()
{
int variable1;
StreamReader readToSort = new StreamReader(@"C:write.txt");
StreamWriter writeSorted = new StreamWriter(@"C:Sorted_File.txt", true);
for (int i = 1; i > 41; i++)
{
variable1 = (readToSort.Read());
while (!readToSort.EndOfStream)
{
if (variable1 == i)
{
writeSorted.Write(i.ToString() + "\n");
}
}
MessageBox.Show("processing #" + variable1);
}
readToSort.Close();
writeSorted.Close();
}

Assume you have a Class named 'TheClass : here's what you might call a 'normal' ctor:
public class TheClass
{
public string Name { private set; get; }
public List<int> TheClassList { private set; get; }
public TheClass(string name, int init, int inc, int last)
{
Name = name;
TheClassList = new List<int>;
for (int i = init; i < last; i+= inc)
{
TheClassList.Add(i);
}
}
}Now you decide that you want to give the user the option to inject a function into ctor that will modify the generation of values in the 'for loop: so you write a Function:
public Func<int, int> Generator1 = (value) => (value * value); And, you modify the class to pass the Function as a parameter to the ctor, and use it:
public class TheClass
{
public string Name { private set; get; }
public List<int> TheClassList { private set; get; }
public TheClass(string name, int init, int inc, int last, Func<int,int> Generator = null)
{
Name = name;
TheClassList = new List<int>;
if(Generator == null)
{
for (int i = init; i < last; i+= inc)
{
TheClassList.Add(i);
}
}
else
{
for (int i = init; i < last; i+= inc)
{
TheClassList.Add(Generator(i));
}
}
}
}All this is, imho, passable; my question regards what happens when you have many optional types of Functions (or Actions) that you want to be used in the ctor ... so that if you made all of those Funcs (or Actions) part of the ctor parameter list (with 'null as their default value) you'd get a very unwieldy ctor, and/or complex logic in the ctor to decide which functions passed as parameters are invoked.
Here's what I see as the alternatives:
I. define a separate ctor for each possible use case (my current choice).
public TheClass(string name, int init, int inc, int last);
public TheClass(string name, int init, int inc, int last, Func<int,int> Generator1);
public TheClass(string name, int init, int inc, int last, Func<int,int,int, List<int>> Generator2);
II. break-out the code in the ctor in two parts: one that handles everything but the generation of values; put the code for all possible value generation scenarios (and its logic) into a separate 'Initialize function that must be called after the call to the ctor.
III. define the most common (default) initialization method in the ctor, and pass a boolean flag as a parameter to the ctor: if the flag is true, initialization is performed in the ctor, else defer initialization to a call to an 'Initialize function.
Appreciate your thoughts !

Of those, I prefer 1, but they all do too much; a constructor should do very little.
Better to have the constructor receive the List rather than build it. If you do, you might want to make a copy.
A benefit of this technique is that it allows the caller to instantiate your class multiple times with the same data without generating it more than once.
And consider using params:
public TheClass(string name, params int[] List)
{
Name = name;
TheClassList = new List<int> { List };
The caller can use this with the values he wants:
TheClass a = new TheClass ( "A" , 1 , 2 , 3 ) ;
int[] l = new int[] { 1 , 2 , 3 } ;
TheClass b = new TheClass ( "B" , l ) ;
Basically, generating the list is not the constructor's concern.
Having said that... I'm reminded of a Pool<T> class I wrote. Its constructor takes a delegate that constructs one item for the pool and the number of items it should manage. Maybe I should change it to follow my advice above.
[System.ObsoleteAttribute("Don't use this constructor",true)]
public Pool
(
int Capacity
,
Delegate Creator
)
{
this.pool = new T[Capacity];
for (int i = 0; i < this.pool.Length; i++)
{
this.pool[i] = Creator();
}
return;
}
public Pool
(
params T[] Pool
)
{
this.pool = Pool;
return;
}
Modularity, single-responsibility, etc.

Hi, I appreciate your comments.
For the sake of focusing on what I think is the key issue ... handling the need to have a constructor with a variable number of parameters some of which may be Action or Func ... which are used dynamically in the ctor ... the code I showed here is deliberately as terse and simple as possible.
In the real-world code I am working with (complex, involving Types other than int) the constructors in the library I am creating do need to trigger the construction of lists ... it's a key part of the class' functionality to provide the lists.
It's a personal preference of mine to avoid using 'params unless required, since I feel the use of named variables always contributes to code maintainability; but, of course, you're right in that they are sometimes absolutely necessary because you are dealing with an unpredictably variable number of inputs at run-time. So, I do use them; in fact, I use them in the current library I'm working on.
Your code example is interesting: I don't see you passing the 'i for-loop indexer to the Delegate, which seems strange. The use of 'Delegate there would require you to define a prototype for the Delegate Type like: public delegate T IntDelegate(); to use in the 'ctor.
On the other hand using a Func<T> would require no extra declaration, and, since Func is a Delegate, would be entirely equivalent.
cheers, Bill

That sounds suspicious.

Yes, because I'm old-school, I try not to use new crap when the old crap still works just fine. I just didn't show it.

If you have a List of Actions to perform, then why are we talking about constructors? Why are you passing in an action, if you can pass an interface?
I'd also like to point out a recent thread[^] on the readability of the constructor

Hi,
I did, indeed, read the thread you refer to in the Lounge, with interest. In fact, my choice to implement multiple constructors ... what I consider best practice now ... one for each case ... is based on believing that improves code maintainability, and readability.
But, I did start this thread with the thought I might learn something new, and I'm certainly willing to change my current preferences
As I just posted to Piebald on this thread: "For the sake of focusing on what I think is the key issue ... handling the need to have a constructor with a variable number of parameters some of which may be Action or Func ... which are used dynamically in the ctor ... the code I showed here [in the original post on this thread] is deliberately as terse and simple as possible."
I can't grok what you are referring to when you say: "pass an interface;" and, I'm curious, how would that work ?
thanks, Bill

You can't bind an interface to an action obvious. But if you can pass an Action<T> or Func<T>, then you can pass an object that implements a specific interface. It may require a bit more code, but the advantage of passing merely an interface appears obvious.

Hi, Eddy,
I believe I see the point you are making, and I certainly agree with you that passing an instance of #Whatever as an IWhatever is a good way to minimize what "parts" of an instance you expose. I can, and do, use interfaces that spec Funcs; example:
public interface IGenericWhatever<T> where T : struct
{
Func<T, T> SomeFunc1 { set; get; }
Func<T, T, T, List<T>> SomeFunc2 { set; get; }
}For the particular "library for programmers" use case I am developing now, I find it appropriate for the programmer to pass Func definitions in the call to the Class' ctor.
When (if) I publish this library on CP, I'll ask for your review.
thanks, Bill

Dear Expert,
Is there any solution or Programming method to develop reports without using Crystal reports in C#.
Ahmad
|
|
|
|
|
Well...there's Microsoft Reports[^]
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

|

|

You can use SSRS SQL Server Reporting Services with Report Builder. Also I have used ActiveReports several years back and would say it was once of the best experience. At the time I was working on a project replacing Crystal Reports with it.
|
|
|
|
|
I wonder if I can use some classes to develop reports, I need a dynamic report, that user can request same report in multiple design.
|
|
|
|
|
Active Reports would be my recommendation. But I would suggest that you download a free copy and test it before you buy the full version.

Hi,
I have a WinForm C# application with MySQL backend on the server in the company. The application needs to sync with a database on Web.
I thought of adding a is_synced field for the fields needs to be updated but then how can I sync? do I need to SELECT using the first mysql_local_connection and loop through avalable records then connect within the loop to mysql_cloud_connection and do the INSERT?
--> connect to mysql_local_connection
--> SELECT records need to be synced
--> While looping
--------> connect to mysql_cloud_connection
--------> INSERT or UPDATE
--> end loop
is this the best way to do it?
Thanks,
Jassim
