TryEnter always succeeds because you are always calling it on the same ( UI ) thread and Monitor is reentrant.
Your MessageBox doesn't totally block the UI thread. It runs a partial message loop and one of the messages it processes is the Windows.Forms.Timer message. Therefore, when the next tick happens, your handler is run again from inside the MessageBox message loop. TryEnter succeeds because the UI thread already owns the lock and Monitor allows a thread to lock an object multiple times.

Dear,
I've downloaded "OutlookBar v2 2005" vb.net project from CodeProject. But I want to convert from vb.net project to C #.
Where can I find the program to convert or Visual Studio .Net has a build-in option to do that?
Many thanks,

.NET has no option to do this and you can find anny number of online converter tools. All you have to do is Google for "vb.net c# code converter".

Is there any way without selecting to change the format of the text? I mean, if I can set the format in the time of constructing the text?
richTextBox1.Text = (this bold)blah blah (this italic)blah
Like using html, is it possible?
Or do I have to select and change for each thing?
|

You have to select and change for each string. Unless you know RTF formatting codes like the back of your hand. It's not like HTML...

hey im new here
basically im using c# i need to write to a varible then out put it from diffrent classes
[code]
public class profile
{
public string postcode;
public void profileupdate()
{
Console.WriteLine("please enter postcode");
postcode = Console.ReadLine();
}
}
[/code]
im trying to inherit in this class
[code]
public class print
{
public void printseat()
{
profile profileupdate = new profile();
Console.WriteLine("" + profileupdate.postcode + "");
System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(1000000);
}
}
[/code]
i have a feeling it is because im inheriting a new instance of the varible but im not sure how to overcome it?

Hi,
when calling printseat on an instance of your print class, you create a new instance of profile; and you store it in a variable named profileupdate however that is completely unrelated to the profileupdate() method.
So probably the profileupdate() method never gets called at all (it is not called by the code shown), hence the postcode shown on the Console will be zero, its initial value.
BTW:
1. rather than waiting 15 minutes before your app ends, it makes sense to perform Console.ReadLine(); that will have your app wait until you hit the ENTER key.
2. I strongly suggest you choose better names for all variables, methods, properties, etc; a careful choice for each of them makes your code much more readable and will allow you (and others) to more easily see what is going on, and to locate bugs if any.
3. please use PRE tags (e.g. by clicking the "code block" button under the textbox) to show code in a nice non-proportional font while preserving formatting.

ah yes the waiting is just some thing i added to stop it from closing so i could read it ect it will be changed in time.
im not sure how u mean by calling the profile update method?
profile profileupdate = new profile(); // calls the class profile stores it as a varible called profileupdate
Console.WriteLine("" + profileupdate.postcode + ""); // this calls the class stored in profile update and picks up the postcode varible?
im quite green with c# as you can probably tell
|
|
|
|

yes, however you also have this method
public void profileupdate()
{
Console.WriteLine("please enter postcode");
postcode = Console.ReadLine();
}
which never gets called, so postcode will have its initial value of zero.
if you never call it, what is its purpose?
and if you never set postcode to something other than zero, what is its purpose?

im inputing my postcode to a varible then calling it in a print class
like a ticket system using inheritance part of a uni project
|
|
|
|

Perhaps you meant for the profileupdate method to be a constructor?
Change public void profileupdate() to public void profile() and see what happens.
It has nothing to do with inheritence.

 But void is nothing, right? I need to get some sleep.

tried it
im just taking the input im saving to a varible and output it within another class. so i have one class where i ask for the postcode and then when i exit back to the menu i can choose to look in the print class and see what i had inputted
Error 1 'profile': member names cannot be the same as their enclosing type C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Desktop\OOPD\OOPD\profile.cs 13 21 OOPD

Ah, so you're instantiating a profile, setting its value, instantiating another one, and expecting it to have the value you put in the first one? It doesn't really work that way.

oh right thats not good, could you give an example of how i would correct this

I have a standard class structure for servicing a table, one of the methods is GetRecord (does the obvious, gets the record from the database and populates the fields in the class).
When I inherit the table up the FK tree I get a warning that this method hides an underlying method
hides inherited member 'LimitMgr.clsLimitSet.LimitSetID'. Use the new keyword if hiding was intended
The questions.
1 How essential is it to implement the new keyword in this scenario?
2 Is the app exposed to error or processing faults if the new keyword is not implemented?
3 If I implement the new keyword on all methods, is there an issue when they do NOT hide an inherited method?
I am a great beleiver in elegant and correct code and I dislike having warnings scattered throughout the app, but implementing the new keyword will be a pain so I am trying to asses the impact of not doing the work

Hi Mycroft,
You are right to aim for a build without warning messages; so when a warning about hiding, "new" or "override" appears, you should act on it. However you can't just put "new" everywhere.
This is how I understand the situation, assuming a base class and a derived class:
- when a method is not virtual in the base class, it can not be overridden; if it appears in the derived class it needs "new"
- when a method is virtual in the base class, it needs either "override" or "new" and the result is different, see the example.
- when a method is absent in the base class, it should not have "override" nor "new" in a derived class.
public void Test() {
A a=new A();
a.print("A=new A");
B b=new B();
b.print("B=new B");
C c=new C();
c.print("C=new C");
A ab=new B();
ab.print("A=new B");
A ac=new A();
ac.print("A=new C");
}
public class A {
public void some1() { }
public virtual void some2() {}
public virtual void print(string text) {
log(text+" ==> A");
}
}
public class B : A {
public void some1() { }
public virtual void some2() {}
public new void some3() { }
public override void print(string text) {
log(text+" ==> B");
}
}
public class C : A {
public new void print(string text) {
log(text+" ==> C");
}
}
Executing "Test" generates the following output:
A=new A ==> A
B=new B ==> B
C=new C ==> C
A=new B ==> B <-- inheritance
A=new C ==> A <-- no inheritance
illustrating the difference between override and new.

Ya thanks for that info, no matter how you look at it I need to deal with the warning - bugger.
I have a nice simplistic code generator that creates the basic 70% of my crud code and works in isolation for each table, doesn't give a rats about FKs. It may need to get a whole lot more complex b/c I'm dammed if I will add the new keyword manually every time I regen a class!

It sounds like you're trying to override a method in a base class which doesn't allow polymorphic inheritence; which is all too common in .net and you're right to think twice.
In my opinion, non-polymorphic inheritence (via new) should be avoided. Unfortunately, the only alternative is likely to be wrapping the class and then having to implement all the public methods and properties of the wrapped class, which is a total pain the [wrist].
If you proceed with non-poly-whosis be aware that a user of your class may be able to bypass your implementation and access the base class' implementation; you will need to be sure that this will not leave the instance in an invalid state.

If only Microsoft was; then methods would be virtual by default.

Yeah, yeah I remember "i before e except after c". Spell check does not work on my FF for some reason.
