three dimentional array loops problem

hello
i am new in programming and also in C#. i have a problem regarding for loop in three dimentional array .
i am pasting piece of code in which i want to check that a value exists in array or not
rook_moves = new int[ 64 ][][];
rook_moves[ 0 ] = new int[ 2 ][];
rook_moves[ 0 ][ 0 ] = new int[ 7 ];
rook_moves[ 0 ][ 1 ] = new int[ 7 ];

rook_moves[ 0 ][ 0 ][ 0 ] = 1;
rook_moves[ 0 ][ 0 ][ 1 ] = 2;
rook_moves[ 0 ][ 0 ][ 2 ] = 3;
rook_moves[ 0 ][ 0 ][ 3 ] = 4;
rook_moves[ 0 ][ 0 ][ 4 ] = 5;
rook_moves[ 0 ][ 0 ][ 5 ] = 6;
rook_moves[ 0 ][ 0 ][ 6 ] = 7;
rook_moves[ 0 ][ 1 ][ 0 ] = 8;
rook_moves[ 0 ][ 1 ][ 1 ] = 16;
rook_moves[ 0 ][ 1 ][ 2 ] = 24;
rook_moves[ 0 ][ 1 ][ 3 ] = 32;
rook_moves[ 0 ][ 1 ][ 4 ] = 40;
rook_moves[ 0 ][ 1 ][ 5 ] = 48;
rook_moves[ 0 ][ 1 ][ 6 ] = 56;

if i want to search that '48' exists or not please tell me how i will implement it in C#
thanks

Ok i'm not 100% sure but i think something like this is what your asking for.

<br />
for (int i=0; i<64; i++)<br />
{<br />
for (int x=0; x<64; x++)<br />
{<br />
for (int z=0; z<64; z++)<br />
{<br />
if (rook_moves[i][x][z] == 48)<br />
   return true;<br />
}<br />
}<br />
}<br />

This code, i'm pretty sure, would check every single slot in the Array for 48.

getting an enviorment variable

Hello,

I'd like to read in a few enviroment variables for an application that will automate a few tasks. VB has a function 'Environ' that can look up env variables with the key as the parameter. Is there anything simular in C#? It it's not possible through C# then I assume to use some api calls.

Thanks,

Bic2k

Yup, figured it out myself of course.

string path = System.Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("PATH");

Please note that the environment variables created within the application will not be
available after the application exits.

Return string from native code to C# using SendMessage

Hi all,

In C# system service I need to get some string from MFC mainframe
window by SendMessage() API call. I managed to send message, but can
not find the way to return string to C# app.
I tried to use lParam:

C# side
StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder(256);
SendMessage(process.MainWindowHandle, WM_GET_AUTH_MEMBER, 0, sb);

C++ side
CString member = "SomeString";
strcpy((char*)lParam, member.GetBuffer());

Then on C# side sb has not been changed
Any idea ?
Please if someone did it post the example,

I would greatly appreciate,
Roman

Are you trying to do this between different processes? I don't thing the conversion from a NULL-terminated native string to a .NET string object is the problem.

Take a look at this post from two days ago. I explained why you can't pass strings with interprocess custom messages.

http://www.codeproject.com/script/comments/forums.asp?msg=1166662&forumid=1649&XtraIDs=1649&searchkw=WM_COPYDATA&sd=4%2F21%2F2005&ed=7%2F20%2F2005#xx1166662xx[^]

I hope it helps. Good luck!

Hello,

1.
Is there a way of making a column in datagrid as a combobox.
So when the user wants to modifiy the fields in the datagrid, and
clicks in particular cell, the dropdown list will appear, and he can only choose the values from the list as a value for the cell.

2. How can you format row in datagrid, so that the row spans the whole
lenght of the datagrid, and does not stop in the middle, etc..

Thank you.

Serializing multiple objects to the same disk file

Hi,

I was hoping someone might help me with a with a serialization problem. I am trying to serialize multiple objects to the same disk file. Below is the code I am using to save and restore an individual object, however I really need to save many objects to disk.

Any thoughts and help would be very much appreciated.

<br />
static void saveFile()<br />
{<br />
IFormatter formatter = new BinaryFormatter();<br />
Stream stream = new FileStream("2005.pp1", FileMode.Create, FileAccess.Write, FileShare.None);<br />
formatter.Serialize(stream, PPeriod);<br />
stream.Close();<br />
}<br />
static void restoreFile()<br />
{<br />
IFormatter formatter = new BinaryFormatter();<br />
Stream stream = new FileStream("2005.pp1", FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read, FileShare.Read);<br />
PayPeriodSerial = (PayPeriods) formatter.Deserialize(stream);<br />
stream.Close();<br />
}<br />

Hi!
You can simply serialize more than one object to the same stream:

IFormatter formatter = new BinaryFormatter();<br />
Stream stream = new FileStream("2005.pp1", FileMode.Create, FileAccess.Write, FileShare.None);<br />
formatter.Serialize(stream, PPeriod1);<br />
formatter.Serialize(stream, PPeriod2);<br />
formatter.Serialize(stream, PPeriod3);<br />
stream.Close();

You'll get all the objects when deserializing in exactly the same way.

Regards,
mav

Remoting Issue

Hi. I have a GUI-Service remoting relationship set up with 2 remotable objects (1 used for sending messages from the service to the GUI to be displayed and 1 for user requests to be sent from the GUI to the service). The remoting is working well...except that for I receive multiple calls on the receiving end of the remoting. As I debug, I only encounter my call one time, but on the receiving end, there will be 2 occurrences. I must have something set up not quite right here - has anyone experienced this or have any tips that may help?

Thank you,
Dusty

Remoting - re-establishing the connection

Judah Gabriel Himango20-Jul-05 4:31

I'm using a custom bi-directional TCP channel to do my remoting. Using this channel, the client can receive messages back from the server once the client connects to the server.

My problem is that over a WAN/Internet environment, my custom channel is getting disconnected for no apparent reason. I have 2 questions: should I expect unstable connections over WAN/Internet? And also, to re-establish a connection, is it better to reconnect to the server objects, or go into the disconnected channel and try to re-establish the socket connection?

If anyone can answer either of these questions, or point me in the right direction, I'd appreciate it.
