ok. I have a program that is so far only supposed to initialize DirectX. In it there are references and one file: Form1.cs. I started it as an empty project, but when i run it the command prompt shows up.
Why is my application showing the command prompt?
Is it somewhere in my coding?
Thanks.
It's probably pretty obvious...

It has nothing to do with your code, this is an option located in the Properties for your project under Application > Output type.

As per a previous thread I have an app which receives events from a COM object. Those events come in on a different thread than my app, so I'm using Control.BeginInvoke() to correct the problem.
BeginInvoke() asynchronously queues the event for handling by my app. The problem is, I want to log the actual time the event was received, not when my handler was finally called to process the queued event.
So I'm calling a delegate which takes one more argument than my handler, and I'm passing in the time, like this:
private delegate void _OnSoundVolumeChangedEvent(DateTime time, int newVolume);
private void itunes_OnSoundVolumeChangedEvent(int newVolume)
{
if (InvokeRequired)
{
BeginInvoke(new _OnSoundVolumeChangedEvent(_OnSoundVolumeChangedEventInvoked), new object[] { DateTime.Now, newVolume });
}
else
{
Debug.Assert("Whoa! Expected this event to require Invoking!")
}
}
private void _OnSoundVolumeChangedEventInvoked(Datetime time, int newVolume)
{
// Do my work
}
However, I'm now curious: if InvokeRequired was true, is it safe to call DateTime.Now? I've already established that it was not safe to pass any of my other form data, since that data belonged to the form thread, and not the calling thread. However, is there any problem calling system methods like DateTime.Now, from the calling thread?

The one thing you MUST avoid is sharing Controls: a thread that did not create a Control
should not touch it (except for the three or four members that are thread-safe,
including InvokeRequired itself).
In general, having multiple threads working on the same data requires caution (which
often means locks).
The framework classes mostly follow the rule "Any public static (Shared in Visual Basic) members of this type are thread safe. Any instance members are not guaranteed to be thread safe."
DateTime has that same sentence in the doc; and DateTime.Now is static, so no problem here.

I've also decided to pass the Control.InvokeRequired value itself to the delegate, so I can log whether I really needed to use BeginInvoke (which I'm going to use anyway). Since that is a form-level value, sort of - is it safe to pass it?
|
|

I already told you InvokeRequired is available to all threads.
The opposite would make it absolutely useless, it then would always be false !

Hello,
I am writing a c# program that uses dataGridView to view my database tables (Access), which are selected by a comboBox.
I have a problem with the INSERT INTO statements. The first table (has the comboBox index 0) insertion is ok but the next two tables when the insertion is made gives me an error "syntax error in INSERT INTO statement", although its the exact same as the first table insert statement!
I can't figure whats wrong, if you can help me with it I'd appreciate it.
Thank you.

What is the text of the statements ? How are they generated ?

This is the code for the addition (insert new row into a table) that I use. The Material table shows no error but both Customer and Accessories tables give me the error I mentioned before (Syntax error in "INSERT INTO").

You might log the offending INSERT INTO commands and see what is wrong.
Are spaces relevant ?

I tried doing so but the same error occurs!

try using the escape char with your single quotes... for example "VALUES(\'" + x + "\', \'" + y + \'")
are x, y and the relevant db columns of the same data type?
|
|
|
|
|
yes they are.
If you can go through the code I have three tables each has the same insert statement but it only works with the Material table.
I'll try your suggestion and tell you what happens.

Butterfly

I once more suggest you list the three actual INSERT lines (on 3 consecutive lines!),
and I am confident you will spot the problem.

I tried it and it still not working!
Please if anyone figures it out to tell me.

Hello again,
I got the solution to my error and it was in the columns names in both Material and Accessories tables.
I should have used [,] with the column names containing -.
Thanks for your responses.

hi
i want to set password on my exe file,i know that i run this operate via Executable header but i don't found an article that use executable header in c#.
anybody can help me >?
thanks
|
|
|
|
|
Eh?  Can you explain more clearly.
Do you want to ask the user for a password when they run the program?
If so then just add a password dialog before anything else in your main routine.
Or are you trying to encrypt the contents of the executable?
I have no idea what I just said. But my intentions were sincere.

Citing MSDN: "The readonly keyword is different from the const keyword. A const field can only be initialized at the declaration of the field. A readonly field can be initialized either at the declaration or in a constructor. Therefore, readonly fields can have different values depending on the constructor used. Also, while a const field is a compile-time constant, the readonly field can be used for runtime constants" (readonly (C# Reference)[^])

readonly is evaluated at runtime, const is evaluated at compile time. So, if you use a const value from one dll in another, you need to redistribute both dlls if the value changes. If it's read only, you need only replace the dll that changes the value.

Also, you can have a const value type, but not a const reference type (except for System.String). Readonly can be either value or reference type objects.
