If I load a bitmap and save it to a stream as a BMP and then converts the stream to an array of bytes I will get all my image data without any problems. But if I change the ImageFormat.Bmp to ImageFormat.Gif I will get an empty array of bytes! Help! -anyone?
MemoryStream ms = new MemoryStream();
Bitmap bm = new Bitmap(“test.bmp");
bm.Save(ms, System.Drawing.Imaging.ImageFormat.Bmp);
byte[] imagedata = new byte[ms.Length];
ms.Read(imagedata, 0, (int)ms.Length);

Maybe you were lucky the first time with the bitmap 
Try putting in a Flush() command after you've written the bitmap.

Thanks for the quick respond, unfortunately it didn’t help much - sorry  . I still have the same error with the array (imagedata) being empty. And it still work ok when I formatted it a .BMP instead of .Gif!
This is the code as is:
Bitmap bm = new Bitmap("image1.bmp");
bm.Save(ms, System.Drawing.Imaging.ImageFormat.Gif);
ms.Flush();
Console.WriteLine(ms.Length);
// Convert from stream to byte[]
byte[] imagedata = new byte[ms.Length];
ms.Read(imagedata, 0, (int)ms.Length);
ms.Flush();
// Convert from byte[] into a stream again.
ms.Write(imagedata, 0, imagedata.Length);
Bitmap bm2 = new Bitmap(ms);

Hi,
Thanks!!! It works perfect, but I still can’t understand how it worked with the BMP-encoding and not with Gif. Sometimes we must just accept the strange thinks in life

Hello,
Can anyone tell me how to prevent my program being killed by pressing "End Task" of task manager ? I have seen that when we try to kill some apps it tells that we cannot terminate it, because of "some" reason.
Thanks James

Basically, you can't prevent this.
There are various reasons for not being able to kill the process, like the process is running under a priviledged or system account, is a system service where Windows cannot work without it, there is a debugger attached to the process, ...
But in all these cases, you're application would not be running under these circumstances. I've "heard" of a couple people doing this, but noone has ever come up with any code examples demonstrating it.

If you want to do this for a security program of some sort, you can have the program called under the user Administrator, and leave the computer on with a user account that doesn't have administrative rights.
Another way, depending on what you're trying to do, might be to start the program as a Windows service, and again, use a user account that doesn't have access to the Services control panel.

Why are you telling me this? I didn't post the question.
Also, I can't quite understand what your saying in the first paragraph, but it doesn't sound like a good idea. You NEVER use the Administrators account for anything other than system administration. Applications/Services/Servers should NEVER use this account.

Oops, sorry. Does a notification get sent to the original poster, or just to you?
And you're right, Administrator isn't the rght place to do it. How about a user specifically for the task, like what ASP does?
My bad on both the post and the idea.

Hi!
In my program I'm using a class, which can nested like the TreeNodes in a
TreeView, thus I also want to use a TreeView to display some of the content
(a short string) of these nested classes. The user shall then be able to take
further actions when by clicking on the TreeNodes. Here comes the problem:
How do I map the currently selected TreeNode to the appropriate instance of
the nested class?
|
|
|
|
|
You need a reference to the TreeView, and to set a TreeViewEventHandler for its AfterSelect event. TreeViewEventArgs has a Node property that returns the selected TreeNode.
|
|
|
|
|
Or, the other way around, you can inherit from TreeView, create its nodes dynamically, and set each node's Tag property with an appropriate nested class instance.
|
|
|
|
|
Thanks a lot! That's exactly what I was looking for.
Now I've discovered another problem: The TreeView apparently always selects one node, no matter where I click. I, however have a context menu, which has to react differently, depending on whether the user clicks on a node or in some empty space. So I tried to determine the node at the clicking position with the GetNodeAt() method. This weardily always returns null.
Here's the code (tvAlbums is the TreeView and contMenu the contextMenu):
private void tvAlbums_MouseUp(object sender, System.Windows.Forms.MouseEventArgs e)
{
if(e.Button == MouseButtons.Right)
{
Point pos = new Point(e.X, e.Y);
contMenu.Show(tvAlbums, pos);
pos = tvAlbums.PointToClient(pos);
if(tvAlbums.GetNodeAt(pos) != null)
{ /* a node was selected - adjust contMenu accordingly */}
else
{ /* no node is selected - adjust contMenu accordingly */}
}
}
|
|
|
|
|
Try checking the tvAlbums.SelectedNode property instead of calling GetNodeAt - does it give you the correct Node reference?
whoops -- i mean "in addition to calling GetNodeAt"
|
|
|
|
|
tvAlbums.SelectedNode does return a correct referece to a node, the problem however is that it always returns a node reference, even if the user clicked into the void.
|
|
|
|
|
In that case, a call to
tvAlbums.SelectedNode.Bounds.Contains(new Point(e.X, e.Y))
should tell you whether the node was clicked.
|
|
|
|
|
I forgot to add that you might want to change the value of tvAlbums.FullRowSelect and see what effect that has.
|
|
|
|

I've just found a working solution, which for which I cannot find any logical reason though:
When I create a point based on some EventArgs e, I first have to let the point go through a PointToClient operation and let it go through PointToScreen to make the GetNodeAt method to work properly:
Point p = new Point(e.X, e.Y);
p = tvAlbums.PointToClient(p);
p = tvAlbums.PointToScreen(p);
// now tvAlbums.GetNodeAt(p) will work properly
Thanks once again for your help!

you're very welcome.
Also, I realize upon reading your last message why you need to convert the Point. The MouseEventArgs X and Y properties relate to screen co-ordinates. Controls use co-ordinates based on their parent control's ClientRectangle. The conversion forces the TreeView to determine the screen co-ordinates of its own ClientRectangle, which it otherwise has no need to know.
I don't suppose you know a fast and reliable way to serialize rich text, do you?

Perhaps the .NET baseclasses provide a serializer for rich-text.

I started investigating the possibilities of NHibernate yesterday and my fisrt conclusion was: Promising technology and stable.
Anyone else working with nhibernate, and want to share his/her experiences with it?
Also I got a question about ms access databases. Can I use them with NHibernate? Anyone did this before?

You'd be much better off asking this question on the SourceForge boards for the project. It's very unlikely this post will stay on thefront page of the forum long enough for anyone with any experience to see it.
