Re: Unmanaged DLL: C# variable for C++ char** Luc Pattyn13-Jul-09 10:04 Luc Pattyn 13-Jul-09 10:04  Hi, when fixed doesn't fit the requirements, GCHandle will. I tend to almost always use GCHandle, even when fixed would suffice. One of the advantages is you typically don't need to copy the data AT ALL, since the scenario is: 1. managed world creates an array 2. uses GCHandle to pin and get the pointer 3. passes it to native world, which fills the buffer, then returns 4. managed world frees GCHandle and uses the array. See, no copy involved, hence also no performance hit. If the buffer is really the entire pixel data of a Bitmap, I would try and use Bitmap.Lockbits to pin and get the pointer (it does what GCHandle does for a general object), pass that pointer to the native world, and all would be OK again without a copy operation, provided your native code: 1. applies the right byte ordering within a pixel 2. applies the right pixel ordering 3. applies the right bitmap stride (normally no problem if scanlines are a multiple of 4 bytes, which is true for 32-bit pixels, or image widths that are multiples of 4). My number 1 rule in image processing is: avoid copy operations.

The problem here is that is the C++ DLL who fills the buffer. The C# application doesn't know which buffer has been filled. Is for this reason that I need to call a function to get the pointer to the buffer. It's important for me to let the native world (C++) control the flow of grabbing images on alternate buffers in order to improve the processing speed of the system (real time image processing). If I don't succeed on getting the buffer pointer I'll try another thing. I'll keep you informed. Thanks for your time. Re: Unmanaged DLL: C# variable for C++ char** Luc Pattyn13-Jul-09 11:12 Luc Pattyn 13-Jul-09 11:12  Hi, that is a secondary issue. Let the managed side provide one or more buffers to the native world, which fills one and tells which one. You don't need to return a pointer for that, a simple ID could do; but if you do return a pointer, keep a Dictionary that maps pointers to Bitmaps, and perform a pointer look-up. However, if there are only two bitmaps, and you alternate them, there is no need to return anything, alternation is quite predictable!

I did why you told me about sending an Id instead of the buffer pointer. Now it's just a matter of drawing a 8 bit grey scale image on a picturebox without moving too much data. Thanks for tips. Get local groups and users from server remotely with console app briancollins3213-Jul-09 6:50 briancollins32 13-Jul-09 6:50  Need some direction on how to enumerate local groups and users remotely from a member server using a console app. Most of the sample code out on the web requires you to know the names of the groups prior to executing the code and the select statements dont ever seem correct. I have used directoryentry to connect to the local servers but directorysearcher seems to always fail. How do you count the number of decimals in a decimal datatype Nathan Revka13-Jul-09 6:26 Nathan Revka 13-Jul-09 6:26  I have program that will input an amount of money so I do not want the user to input something like $2.684. I need to be able to count the number of decimals so I can create an if statement that prevents the user from inputting such a number.

Re: How do you count the number of decimals in a decimal datatype musefan13-Jul-09 6:51 musefan 13-Jul-09 6:51  well if you are using a textbox then you will need a number of different validations... 1. Check the currency symbol exists only once and is the first character, if not present you should auto add it 2. Check there is only 1 decimal point 3. Check for any , symbols you may want to include and insure they are in the right places 4. Check only two digits after the decimal place... if(text.LastIndexOf('.') != text.Length - 3) //not two digits after the decimal point ...there are other validations you may want to try and other methods to calculate the number of digits after a decimal. you could also use a NumericUpDown control which has a property to set how many decimal places you wish to use, in addition to choosing if you want to you commas for thousand seperators Life goes very fast.

Dccg peishen8813-Jul-09 5:47 peishen88 13-Jul-09 5:47  Anyone familar with Dccg which is a software that work with RS232? i try to play around with this software, and hopefully can use my command to control the Motorola Set-top-box through the Dccg. So anyone has any ideas or suggest? thanks a lot. Re: Dccg Luc Pattyn13-Jul-09 5:54 Luc Pattyn 13-Jul-09 5:54  is it Dutch Colorectal Cancer Group [^] you are considering?
