Hi,
I have two sockets and i want to transfer a struct object.How can i convert object to binary abd vice versa?Thanks for you time.

hii,that's too simple in c# first add Serializable attrubite before your struct
[Serializable]
struct YourStruct
{..}if struct also contains (nested) other structs objects. thier structs also must have Serializable attrubite then
using System.Runtime.Serialization.Formatters.Binary;
using System.IO
BinaryFormatter bin=new BinaryFormatter();
MemoryStream memory=new MemoryStream();
bin.Serialize(memory, yourStructObject);
byte[]data=memory.GetBuffer();//your struct in bytes
//to Reverse operation:
memory=new MemoryStream(data);
memory.Seek(0,System.IO.SeekOrigin.Begin);
yourStructObject=(YourStruct) bin.Deserialize(memory);

That is not a function of Sockets. That is a function of the network device(s) that are being used between the source and destination. Sockets are an abstaction that concentrate on the data being transmitted and received rather than the physical process of sending or receiving data.

The previous post is correct. Are you, perhaps, referring to the send and receive buffer sizes instead? That would reflect the largest "chunk" size that could be sent or received by the server and client.

If you're really referring to line speed then there's not a lot you can influence merely by using sockets or not.

Exception Handling - back into method

I have a problem here with an exception.

<br />
try<br />
{<br />
  ... some code ...<br />
  Exception appears here<br />
}<br />
catch(Exception ex)<br />
{<br />
  ... some code ...<br />
  (go back into try block, but how ?)<br />
}<br />

After exception was thrown, application should continue code processing in the try block. Is it possible to avoid processing a special error with given error number ? Otherwise, code processing will be interrupted and application close this process.

you can try the following Smile | :)

public void HandleException( Exception ex )
{
... Do something, as in old catch ...
... some code ...
}

try
{
... some code ...

try
{
// Where exception appears
}
catch(Exception ex)
{
HandleException( ex )
}
}
catch(Exception ex)
{
HandleException( Exception ex )
}

Make your try blocks smaller.

So if you have

try
{
    // Do item 1
    // Do item 2
    // Do item 3
}
catch(Exception ex)
{
    // Handle the exception
}

Change it to:

try
{
    // Do item 1
}
catch(Exception ex)
{
    // Handle the exception
}
try
{
    // Do item 2
}
catch(Exception ex)
{
    // Handle the exception
}
try
{
    // Do item 3
}
catch(Exception ex)
{
    // Handle the exception
}

Or a better solution would be to refactor your code so that item 1, item 2 and item 3 individual private methods that get called, each of which has their own try/catch block.

Does this help?

Wow. I can't believe you would seriously suggest someone use this. Part of the advantage of methods written in a language like C, C++ or C# is that they are by nature "fall-through". No artificial flow interruptions, reroutes, twists, turns or gyrations are advised (such as "goto", "gosub" etc.).

This kind of coding reflects poor planning, not good practice. It looks like a (bad) piece of VB 6 code.

Maybe you should use IlDecompiler and look at the IL generated from some of your nice 'fall through' c# code. I think you'll find it is liberally sprinkled with goto's. The closer you get to the machine, the more useful and sensible goto gets to be.
what is gosub other than a void method call? is goto really any different than

if(true)<br />
  ...<br />
else<br />
  ...

I would agree that if-else is preferable for clatity: the brace blocks are clearer than a lable, but the result is no different: code branches to a new location under some conditions.

In leppies example, if there were multiple try-catch blocks in the same function, a goto and a common cleanup code block would be preferable for maintainability to repeating the code in each catch block...

I was commenting on the code example provided. In the example, if an error is generated after the RESTART label, the code will loop indefinitely. That, to me, was a perfect example of why not to use the goto. It leads to bad code.

I'm not disputing whether IL contains goto calls. I am contending that at the time the IL is compiled, there are no nonsensical looping calls made if the developer has constrained him/herself to using the fall-through code style.

I beg to differ. Show me more readable code, sure you wrap a while around it, or some other way. The fact is goto is clean and simple, and it gives you much better flow control that you can perform via a for/while/etc.

Until you find a sub with about 20-30 of them in it, then it's just damn ugly and completely unreadable.

Much better flow control? I'd say much more "quick and dirty" flow control. Seriously, I haven't used a single Goto in the last 13 years...

Sure, if you get down to the IL that the compiler generates, yes, you'll find Goto's, or more acurately, Jump's, all over the place. This will happen in lower level languages, but in higher level languages, C# or VB.NET or whatever, using Goto's is an extinct practice, found only in the code of 1st year students.

I am inclined to agree with you, since I can't recall needing to use a Goto in a very long time (other than in VB6 of course, where it is mandated by the crude error handling). Goto is rather the flow control of last resort, and will stay around in even high level languages for that last ditch "damn, now what?" situation that once in a very rare while crops up in even the best designed code...

C# / Oracle -->Getting ByteArray from field(VARCHAR(250)

Anonymous4-Mar-05 1:03

Anonymous

4-Mar-05 1:03

Hi All,

i have got a problem by getting data from an oracle column. The column contains 250 binary values in a single column ( VARCHAR2(250) )!
Each tries to get the byte to a byte array or into a string where not successful!

Just with object I could read something, just one letter and at least its wrong I think.

Thats my Source Code, ...
public static void Main(string[] args)
{
string constr = "Provider=msdaora; Data Source=***; USER ID=***; Password=***";
OleDbConnection myConnection = new OleDbConnection(constr);

string qry = "SELECT * FROM ruest_teach WHERE RT_RK_MODELL_NR= 'W202 M753 13' AND RT_RK_ORGE_NR = 591";

OleDbCommand myCommand = new OleDbCommand(qry,myConnection);
myConnection.Open();

//*** SELECT Operation ausführen lassen
OleDbDataReader myReader = myCommand.ExecuteReader();
string b = "";
int a = 0;
object c = new object();
while (myReader.Read())
{
a = Convert.ToInt32(myReader.GetDouble(0));
b = myReader.GetString(1);
c = myReader.GetOrdinal("RT_TEACH_H");
}
Console.WriteLine(a + " , " + b + " , |" + c + "|");
}

Maybe someone here can help me with my problem. It is really important, because it is part of my examination to get a programmers license in germany.

CE MAPI problem

Hi all,

I try to using c# and programming the CEMAPI(by using VC++) in pocket pc 2003 to retrieve
the emails from the pocket pc. But after several days trials, I still
can't get the receipent and the body of the emails(I can only retrieve
the subject of the emails). Do anyone have the same experience as me ? I
just wonder there are system bugs in the pocket pc MAPI.

Thanks

I want to get the path to the executable file of a service

This will enable me to find the config file of the service

How do I do that?

Why ODBC? There is a Sql Server Data Provider built in to the .NET Framework in the System.Data.SqlClient namespace.
