Try this code ~
private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)<br />
{<br />
string p = "C:\\a.bmp";<br />
Image img = Image.FromFile (p);<br />
pictureBox1.Image = img;<br />
MessageBox.Show ("Image added.");<br />
img.Dispose ();<br />
<br />
if ( !CheckIfFileIsBeingUsed (p) )<br />
{<br />
System.IO.File.Delete (p);<br />
MessageBox.Show ("Image deleted.");<br />
}<br />
<br />
}<br />
public bool CheckIfFileIsBeingUsed(string fileName)<br />
{<br />
System.IO.FileStream fs;<br />
try<br />
{<br />
<br />
fs = System.IO.File.Open (fileName, System.IO.FileMode.Open, System.IO.FileAccess.Read, System.IO.FileShare.None);<br />
fs.Close();<br />
}<br />
catch ( Exception exp )<br />
{<br />
Console.WriteLine (exp.Message);<br />
return true;<br />
}<br />
return false;<br />
<br />
}
Note that you should not directly set the image to PictureBox. Instead, use one buffer and dispose it if you don't need anymore.

Hope it helps..

as Christian Graus said before ,you must Dispose the image not the pictureBox
this.pictureBox1.Image.Dispose();
System.IO.File.Delete(path);
Good Luck

Hi, if you use a FileStream to read your image, you will not have these problems,
since FromStream does not keep the file open.

hi everybody!
I have a requirement to identify whether the file I am copying is an image, audio, video, office document etc.
What's the best way to do this apart from checking the extensions?
Anyway, i handled identifying non-images. but, when it comes to identifying video, audio and office docs, I don't think checking on extensions would be a wise move.How can I do it effectively?
Regards,
A

Use GDI+ to attempt to load a file and verify if it's an image. Write code that reads the file itself and attempts to identify the file format, which means you need to look for unique markers for each of these file types, and look for them.

Okay. Yeah. but what about other extension (eg: doc)?

I'm not clear about that. Could you please explain me again?

Something like how to identify those particular markers and stuff?

Exactly as I said

You'd have to know that the file format contains the word 'WORD' in the first four bytes, for example, and open the file and examine it for those known markers related to the known file format.

Oh.. I didn't know about that.. I will try to check this one.. thanks.
But i think that checking the extension might be more easier than checking the fist four bytes of each file, isn't it?

The first four bytes is an example off the top of my head. It's not real, Word doesn't do that. But, it may well do *something* to mark it's files.
And yes, checking the extension is going to work 99% of the time, and is a lot easier to do.

non-images files means "*.txt, *.dll, *.exe"?? How did you handle identifying those file type without checking the extension??

In fact i am using the image to be displayed in a picturebox. When I try non-images, it gives an OutOfMemoryException.
This way I can identify non-images.

There is no general solution to identifying a file's type; new file types are
created every day.
If you are only interested in whether it is a loadable image, then try to load
the image, and live with the possible exception.

You can check only the extension but it might be incorrect. If you want tighter control then look for magic number[^] in that file

Hi All,
I facing a problem which i have described briefly in the following paragraph.
Let me tell you a scenario where in the user has to choose any kind of dll he wants, rather be .Net Dll or Native Dll for a connection to his server.
In that he knows the function to Invoke.
I need to write a common user interface to invoke any kind of dll, based on the choice of the user. Is that possible ?. If so help me regarding the stratergy that i have to use or any examples of such accomplishment.
FYI
I know one software which is doing to most of the Dll's.
Thanks in Advance

You can late bind to .NET dlls, I'm not sure what you can do about native dlls, without having the pinvoke code already in your app.

There are some articles here on cp which show you how to invoke function from a native dll without pinvoke code in the source.

I had write code on text_change event of richText box in C#.net for wordwrap.
When i created the project and tested it its working fine, so i copy it make exe. Now problem is its showing some problem. so i check this code with oroginal code. In original code its working fine, but in copied code it showing problem.
The problem is like, after 3-4 line, at end of line its giving space in 2 letter like "Him" as "H i m", and adding "/n"at end of text.
Here maxLength is variable for no. of chracter like 65,66 etc per line, And if there is somthing wrong with code then plz help me.(not mismatch of { })
I want to know:
1. Code is for text_changed event & exact same in both, So why it like this?
2. Its only for text_change event and I dont think it has any relation with any other project part, i m using the text but after it has been put by the user.
The code for event is:
<br />
private void txtBody_TextChanged(object sender, eventArgs e)<br />
{<br />
<pre>if(tbWordwrap.Pushed)
{
string[] tempArray = new string(txtBody.Lines.length);
tempArray = txtBody.Lines;
int Prevsel = txtBody.SelectionStart;
string Op = "";
int maxLength = cINI.dbUtils.Pref.DefaultEditorWidth;
bool change= false;
for(int cou = 0; cou < tempArray.Length ; cou++)
{
if (tempArray[cou].length > maxLength)
{
string words = tempArray[cou].split(' ');
int currentLine Length = 0;
string currentLine = "";
foreach(string currentWords in words)
{
if(currentWord.Length > 0)
{
if(currentword.Length >= maxLength)
{
Op += currentword.Insert(maxLength, "\r\n");
break;
}
if(currentLineLength + currentword.Length + 1 < maxLength)
{
currentLine += currentword + " ";
currentLineLength += currentword.Length +1;
}
else
{
Op +=currentLine.Insert(currentLineLength, "\r\n");
currentLine = currentWord;
currentLineLength = currentWord.Length;
}
}
}
if(currentLine !="")
Op += currentLine;
PrevSel++;
change = true;
}
else
{
Op += tempArray[cou] + "\r\n";
}
if(change)
{
txtBody.Text = Op;
txtBody.SelectionStart = prevSel;
}
}
}</pre><br />
<br />
<br />

best guess, the control is different sizes on the two forms, and so one version is showing up bugs in your code that are not evident in the other version.

HI,
I am trying to write an SQL update query with c# code.
This is my situation.
I have a number of winforms and a sql server database. On one form I have drop down lists which are populated with the database rows by table adaptors.
This is what I need to do.
User selects a name from the drop down and clicks update which opens up a new form (class). In this new class I need to write an update statement to say update employees where '" + empNamecomboBox.Text.ToString() + "'. Basically to make sure we only update the selected employee, I want to say where the previously selection has been made. The only thing is I can't reference empNamecomboBox.Text because it belongs to another class.
Can you please helpe me? I've only got a few days to complete this.
Siann
