Yeah! Got it! But now I need to learn how to edit this and have a small window just show that "received" data!
|
|
|
|
|
Step by step. Play a Little bit, analize/modify code. Especally take a look how DataReceived-Hanlder from the serialport component is implemented. This part is the hardest part because one needs this Invoke Thing to avoid crashes between GUI main thread and serialport component threads.
And Keep in mind you always can unzip the original again

Yeah! It looks easy to modify but in practice it is not at all!  Each time I change the GUI and delete something I have bunch of errors! Yes, seems I need to unzip everything and discover every inches!

Don't worry you will learn this. I learned it also and still have from time to time Problems 
One tip: All these visual components have a property "Visible". For the first trials maybe it is easier simply to set this prop to false to hide them.

Ummm... visibility! Good advice Bruno! I will take it!

LOL! These smiley icons make me laugh!  Yes, so dirty!
Listen I have a question for you if you don't mind:
How can I run this:
<a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.io.ports.serialport.aspx">http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.io.ports.serialport.aspx</a>[<a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.io.ports.serialport.aspx" target="_blank" title="New Window">^</a>]
Should I use a Form Application? If yes, Why I have too many errors!
|
|
|
|

The link you mention is same Serial port class like SerialPortTerminal uses.
I suggest to use WinForms (for me WinForm is the easiest case).
What kind of errors do you have?
Go step by step:
1.) Make a new Project of type c#, Windows Forms Application
2.) Run it...I know this step is more or less meaningless, but even you know if it runs your very base is ok.
3.) Go on with Serial port component (either you create it at runtime with new, like the demoprogram). But it is also possible to drag&drop it from tool box (section Components) to the mainform. In this case you do not have to bother about create it at runtime....and even more most of the properties like Baudrate etc. you can set directly in visual studo.

Bruno!
Thanks for your guidelines. Bill mentioned that I cannot simply copy and paste that MSDN code and run it and expect it to work immediately. As you know when you have an empty Form the code is as follows.
<pre lang="c#">
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.ComponentModel;
using System.Data;
using System.Drawing;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Windows.Forms;
namespace WindowsFormsApplication6
{
public partial class Form1 : Form
{
public Form1()
{
InitializeComponent();
}
private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
}
}
}
</pre>
But when if you replace it with one of the MSDN codes, the compiler gets many errors such as:
Error 2 'object' does not contain a definition for 'Dispose'

Thanks for the steps. I will apply them.

Otherwhise we can make a teamviewer session....

Help you? With what? You never asked a question or stated any kind of problem you're having.

What you need to do is start off by breaking down your requirements into smaller, more manageable chunks. That's always the place to start.

Of course, I can't know what the intent of the instructor was in posing this example in the context of this point in time in the class' progress, or whether most of the students in the class ... having done their homework and understood the teaching content ... are quite ready to take on this type of problem.
Teachers do issue challenging exam preparation questions to provoke/inspire/motivate students, to make them aware of what they don't know yet, and, sometimes, to create "fear, uncertainty, and doubt."
If you really are "clueless," with an exam coming up, and you think you are "way behind" the other students, I recommend you consider dropping the course: why waste any more of your time ?
But, a better alternative may be to get busy creating a prototype, and studying, and, if you need to, ask specific questions on CodeProject, showing selected content from your code related to the question you ask. Consider talking to your instructor, talk with your fellow students.

What version of Windows are you using ? If it's Win7 see: [^].
Did you install Visual Studio Express ?
Do know that you are welcome here, and I think the moment you start asking specific questions, and showing you are writing code, lots of people will be eager to help you.

What game? I have no idea what you are talking about - and it sounds like you aren't too sure yourself!
Probably the best place for a question like this is here: Collaboration & Beta Testing Forum[^] since this forum is normally for C# specific queries, and this is a much more general request.
