I'd go with 2. My dual core CPU can handle it. My number 1 priority is bug free code that's easy to use.

There is a third option:
CallLogMethod(condition, "Message") The CallLogMethod still evaluates the condition, but it gets passed in. This is similar to how Debug.WriteLineIf works.
In either case, I would go with option 2 or 3 and push the test into the method itself. This way, you guarantee that it will always be tested and tested the same way and it's one less thing to worry about at the calling site.

Hi,
I'm using a PropertyGrid on my custom property class. I want to dynamicly set a property to ReadOnly or hide it.
How do I do this?
Gr.
|
|
|
|
|
[ReadOnly]
public bool Foo {get;set;}
[Browsable(false)]
public bool Bar {get;set;}
|
|
|
|
|
I'n not sure what I'm suppose to do here.
When I add [ReadOnly] to my property I get an error.
I tried something like [ReadOnly(Foo)] but that not allowed either.
Could you give me a bit more described answer.
Thanks

using System.ComponentModel;
[ReadOnly(true)]
or
[ReadOnly(false)]

Well I think i haven't been very clear.
I know this. But I want to change this Dynamicly. By that I mean I wan't to change this at runtime by clicking on a button or something.

Well you should flippen well ask that! And why vote me down when I gave you the correct answer for your original question?
The answer is you cant do that. (You can probably but that will require a lot of work, and I have not gone down that route).
|
|
|
|
|
Well sorry for voting you down but your answer wasn't verry complete and I thought the word Dynamicly made it pretty clear I wasn't looking for a static solution.
But we might disagree on that one.
Although I found a project in wich it is done (link[^]), this was way to complex for me so I'm using a workaround now.
Anyway thanks for your reply. and sorry again for the "down voting".

Dynamic can mean a lot

hi every buddy,
I'm working in an ASP .NET project and in that I need to generate a unique key which is to be used instead of the primary key in the database of 6 digits and it should be random in nature yet it should be unique ofcourse. Actually the client doesnt want to issue numbers such as 000001, 000002... he wants it to be like 872731. The problem in my mind is that how are we gonna generate these unique but random numbers, coz whats bugging me is: WE would have to check for the keys already taken and 1) its v inefficient and 2) it could have problems with concurrency.
So I really need to guidelines from you people, I would definately appreciate this. Thank you.

Why do people insist on this anti-pattern? 
You will likely need to persist all the id's in a table, then just create random number, check for uniqueness on table, repeat if necessary, add newly created number. For concurrency, you will probably need to lock the table or something.

hmm didnt get that one! honestly.
now comming to the point. I really dont think locking a table would be a great idea from an ASP .NET app. I may be wrong. Do u think I can generate the random numbers from TSQL?

yea well I had that in mind too but how will I convert that to a six digit number?

Ohh sorry. I haven't noticed the 6 digit requirement. You need follow what leppie said then. It will tough to make it reliable.

|

no its ok, but I'm still perplexed about locking the table from this asp .net app. I think it has the potential of bring the whole application to its knees!.
Rocky

It will only lock the table while generating the number, that should take 10ms, so that should work unless you need to do this 100 times a seconds. And in that case 6 digits wont cover uniqueness, you will run out in 10 minutes. That's why it is an anti-pattern (just wrong from the start).
|
|

|

ok so that explains it!,
thanks
just one more question: hope u can answer that. How can we lock the table from ASP .NET, I've been searching over that as well. Any tips?

The problem of generating non-repeating 6-digit numbers that appear random can be solved with cyclic groups:
Start with any 6-digit number. This is your first key. Pick a random prime number (any will work, but a 6-digit prime between 300000 and 700000 would be best).
Every time you add the prime number to the key (and truncate to six digits), you get the next key. The beauty of this approach is that you'll go through EVERY 6-digit number before it repeats.

There is an article for a specific gateway on CodeProject, else I have seen an advert sometimes on the bottom of this site for one.

Find a gateway and set up an account with that bank. Or look into Paypal. IF you use Authorize, I have an article on the site that simplifies using it.

Hello Vineesh,
Trh using the given code snippet. You need to import the namespace System.IO.
using System.IO;
BEGIN CODE
<br />
StreamReader sr = new StreamReader("C:\\Test.txt");<br />
String str;<br />
<br />
str = sr.ReadToEnd();<br />
<br />
int index= str.LastIndexOf("exit 1");<br />
<br />
TextBox1.Text=str.Substring(0,index);<br />
END CODE
I hope this will meet your requirement.
Regards,
Allen
