I'll give that idea a shot Thanks mate :)

The dots made it seem like you didn't meant it :D but nvm

Thanks, Another thing I though about was to simply use datamining, and store data about where the most people would prefer sitting which is another fun idea I've been trying to put on the drawing board. But for now it seems I'm going for a sort of weights, either by masking or by a simple "length" calculation.

Magic! got it :D - hehe all seriously - I do have a bit knowledge about this but never really understood how to calculate it probably, and never really have much interest in it either which I will agree on is sad and really lazy to say. I kinda get that tree structures run at log(n) if I remember correctly, binary search and such. I've tried to read on it multiple times but I tend to forget it fast afterwards. I'll have another look in near future, probably worth the while!

Sarcasm?

Well I guess I'll stick with some sort of weights - I'll give it a shot :)

Well, I've always been glad to have all the cards on the table, I feel sometimes it's better to take the extra time needed to think about an optimal solution rather than the fast (and maybe even less optimal), also the calculation is needed to be calculated on a server where from my knowledge a lightweight solution is preferable.

Time complexity have never been my cup of tea so sorry for any mistakes made :) but any how, it does right now run in what i believe should be N^2 (a for loop with a nested loop yes?) but it does check multiple seats each time as it check both up, down, and the sides. I read what you've wrote, but still doesn't seem completely obvious to me.

I did think about doing this too but I tried to wrap my head around if there were any better solutions - that's what caused this question in the first place :)

I kinda did define which we've chosen as the "best place" Quote: the best place is always right in the middle and as you move forward/backward or left/right the place slow.y becomes worse. eg the worst place would be in a corner.

It do wanna give the customer the option to change but I'm also thinking of trying to give it a test run where the system should be able to assign everything automatically. I know there is no such thing as the "best" seat, some prefer sitting closer of further way to/from the screen, but the idea was to have some sort of automated process to assign what would be the ideal "best" seat from knowledge, from your link for instance :)

Thanks a lot! :D

Understood just for the sake of it could you maybe give some search word to get an idea how to work with this unique, so it is impossible to add 2 equal resevations? - Sorry for keep going, as say never worked with SQL in such advance manner.

Ah, I see I'm no near an database expert, I barely knew how joins worked into very recently, but if what you're saying does apply to SQL Server as well, I guess I can just make a check on whether a reservation is matching an other one before writing it to the database?

it's more about memory management since i'm getting out of memory exceptions when generation these large images, and the app is running at 1,5 GB (arcording to the task manager) and I've heard there is a way to split the app into multiple processes (yet something i have to learn) like a browser have a process for each open tab/url/fan (not sure what it's called in english).

Improved/edited a little, I'm sorry, didn't reread it before post, was kinda dumb of me, what i meant was that i want to split the app up in multiple processes, but the new process should only run a single wished method and then exit then it's done. I've seen some uses appdomains and methodinfo, but i try to keep it simple but still strong, and i know from previously experience that assemblyinfo and appdomains etc. is not too fun to play around with.

Of cause i know everything needs a process to run and i know the you shouldn't poke to much to the garbage collector. as said earlier, even that it sounds arrogant, i'll try to avoid to use these simply to keep it simple and i personally don't like to work with it, so it is a "last call" if no one else could give any suggestions.

hope this makes some clarification.

both classes is in the same namespace above code was just for "show" the base type/super type is mammal and cat is derived from that. so i wanna put the base type into a derived class.

Thanks anyway

I see so i do need to convert everything manually? the whole point of a downcast is that i'm making some sort of game where you can make your own additions and some items are by default set to a class called "Item" (to save space and memory) but in some cases you want to transform this item into a "dark-relic" (a hexed/cursed item) but you'll never know what item it is or when it happens and therefor i needed a way to convert it, i do think I've found a solution but it only seems to work 50% of the time, never the least, thanks for your answer :)

It wasn't to be rude, I think you took it in a wrong way, what is meant by it is that i read what the article say etc, and try to understand it and apply it but in the end it all seems like "bla bla bla" (AKA makes no sense) because no matter how hard i try to understand it, it doesn't work/make sense in the end.

So I don't think this is stupid, or you're trying to sell me the idea or anything, and what would the point even be for me asking if i wasn't interested in the help? to be honest i really appreciate sites like this and people like you that actually trying to help people out for free, and well, "wastes time on losers"... I really try to get my head around it but cant seems to figure it out, and then that happens i prefer to look at others solutions to learn how its done, then go for a better result afterwards.

My apologies for the misunderstanding, (English isn't my native language either) but hope I've cleared some things out here.

Can you maybe link to some code or whole project using this type of serializer? Might help more to have some useful code to look at and get an idea how everything works rather than say do bla do bli, (normally i have much easier to learn stuff by looking at others work and use either a debugger with step in or touch the code my self)

I've been reading on it more intense but cant get it to work properly for now...

Sounds very complex, maybe i should just save the data to a text file and manually load/save it, probably more work but easy to do...

Don't really get it, isn't XML suppose to be able to save a whole dataset/class data down to a XML table? that's what i understood then i read about it?

I'll try and see how it goes thanks, more ideas are welcome.

Thanks for your help, can you be so kind to provide some sample code or links to both of them? i've seen the DrawToBitmap but i can't find the refference to it for some reason, im using 4.0

The 2nd one have i looked on too but it seems to have a lot of work to it (i might be wrong)

Ow god, so I'm really in need to calculate the font size and line length for every word? That is exactly what i would like to avoid if there was a easier way around...

wont this save the background too? only thing i want is the text, not any white background.

I know but the DrawString only accept one font type/style at the time, i want to write the whole thing without the white background from the control.

Yaeh was to tired yester day to do anything and now im lazy so just uploading source code

well I'm thinking of a more overall way to do it like DLLImport which i know you can use in unity and I've got some finger points that i should do this but the problem is i cant find the functions and values needed to import to get the wished result so if someone knew what to import and stuff that would help me out a lot

So do you know any way of doing this then?

.NET API is due to sources from unity3D not compatible... one source said that you could use DLLImport as mentioned, and i need to remove the borders to have the "Fullscreen maximized window" effect (like seen in lots of game) where you can have windows above your actual "fullscreen" window (windowed maximized mode) i did know that fullscreen still have borders but some how they're "hidden"

internal will do yea, but my thinking is that the form/designer/Class etc. is in a single class and there by it should be internal or public and not protected as in the code? unless the above is inherit from somewhere of cause

Dosen't event normally suppose to be public?

do you know a way to execute/compile code on the fly in mono then? what i get from google is codedom is not an option in mono.

"but not "extend" a type" aaah okay thanks for answer

Ow yea i all forgot, im using mono for this game so the solution should be multi platform useable.

i do know how partial works, you ca split classes up in multiple files, but i wanted to know if you from you program could load and use a class that just add user diff. stuff into an already existing file that way... :)

dont get it... what is it you want? your question seems very wierd?

Glad it was useful :)

i most honestly say i cant see any thing wrong so i don't know if it is the control that doesn't work as it should but i cant see what is else would be just now, sorry but i hope you'll figured it out and you found my code above useful.

not really sure what you're trying to tell me if you have some sample codes of where the problem(s) may occur i will try to look into it. but what i understand is that the previously number is displayed even that you choose another one? in this case it might be the event handler that have some fail? otherwise try to see if the "new" keyword will do you any good?

Reason for my vote of 1
I think there was a huge lack of content and samples here... Sorry but doesn't find this very useful

in other words you cant directly use that API in C# because its PHP based. So either you will need to make a html site and link that site to a webbrowser control in a form, or maybe you can make a ASP.NET application that maybe can work around it. Remember all .net libraries is usually .dll format. good luck anyways :)

its silly you cant cast it as i tried... but lists of generic types have always been a pain... i wished i've seen oftype earlier haha :D anyway thanks again +5 from here for great help chat and support have a nice day/evening :)

WOW! made it work just using the "oftype" thanks a lot :)

The problem with this is that tl MOST be list of maintestclass, sorry...

almost same error as above with that code :)

can not implicitly convert bla bla...

as following: (see source above for details):
List(maintestclass) tl = new List(maintestclass)() { new testclass("test"), new testclass("test"), new testclass2("test") };

List(testinterface) ti = new List(testinterface)();

those greater/lesser thing wont work it takes it as HTML...

keep getting "Error: Cannot convert type 'System.Collections.Generic.List<interfacetest.maintestclass>' to 'System.Collections.Generic.List<interfacetest.testinterface>'"

this code is the problem: ti = (List<testinterface>)tl.Where(x => (x as testinterface) != null).ToList();

Thanks alot for helping :)

Thanks is there a way to do this by using .where on a list?

aah thanks alot, i've been looking into synthesizer today and sound banks and i have a base idea of how it works with RSE thanks alot for your help :)

Thanks i didn't get what you ment with the midi thing, but as said what i basicly want is to convert the midi to sound like RSE (like the sounds in this link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NOe4wLv3Tj0) but thanks :)

yes i looked at it but idk what to think about it

damn, and you're sure that there is no weird thing to be able to bypass it?

okay thank you very much you have been very help full :)

okay thanks so mysql is running separate application that is a server with a database i understand?

well what i've normaly seen you need to run a mysql server in some sort of console application that you then connect to from deference applications (i've run some private servers for wow that used mysql a few times) and for those you needed to start the mysql server and then start the server application for wow i dont know if that is how it always work with mysql but that is my personally experience with it so im kinda asking does mysql need to run in a separate application or can i run the database inside or implement it in my chatserver app? also can you try to lead me to some maybe useful references? also do mysql also support special sign from china, japan and so on? (utf32 i guess?).

thanks for you fast answers :)

okay thanks for the answer can i store "images" and large strings as i would like to have? and is it posseble to run mysql server inside my C# app instead of running it in its own app?

thanks but didn't really help much im afraid, im still confused about what might be the "best" solution for me or witch solutions i can choose between after reading it

not sure i understand this rigth but is it adding/editing keys and values in regedit you wanna do?

if you would find the simple code i would really appreciate it, its a semi importen part of the system :)

cos i know they have suport for rippingbut i just cant make it work and i am already using those 2 libs all over the code in my system so if i could keep my self to those 2 i would preffer that but if you know some easy to use libs let me know :)

dont get it can you explain it better?

okay i see im trying to look more into NetworkStreams they seems to be able to do what i want but i cant make it work still sadly.

is it just me or are those for asp.net? im currently doing it winform based ptherwise it seems nice you're link ^^

okay ty alot what way would you say is the best to use? i guess running in a separate window may end up in being very messy to work with over time?

hey i've found a volume control but cant change it to anything it saying wrong vaule on everything but 0 any idea? :S

yeah, tryed to look at that in the start but it seems very complex and also it is written in C++ but i may have an additional look at it :)

Ty alot all the links you linked to are awsome im already looking into the "QuartzTypeLib" it seems okay but havn't yet found any way to play multiply songs or add "fades" but otherwise ty very help full :)

Well mainly what im making is for the fun of it so i can be even better to programing but thanks for the link of ad blocking it was... kinda interresting and yes i know about ads are very deferent but alot of ads does always contains some html code that you can look at, also it could be nice to scan for melisious scripts this way.

Aaah i see thank you very much bro, very helpfull take care :)

ty SO much friend i owe you one its works very well now so tyvm :) even that it does work now may i please ask you one last thing; what is this part: "new Action<string, string="">" of the code do that the only thing i haven't figured out what does if you can tell me i'll be glad, but again thanks alot! :D

well i must be blind or it isn't there cos i only have "forms" under system.windows but i guess i can download the dll from somewhere and still use it yes?

Ty for answer but i cant find the dispatcher tool/reference in threading any where...
