Search this messageboard for 'eleventh' and'twelveth', there is a nice switch statement to deal with that, the rest will be easy.

Hello friend.

Here is your code. I hope you like it;).

It consists of 3 methods. You call the ToLiteral() method and supply it with the string you want to parse. It will subsequently call the other two methods to retreive the literals and the segments names. Forgive me for the poor comment -never been good in commenting-. I included a button click even handler to show you how to test for output and how to use the ToLiteral() method.

private void TestButton_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        //Random numbers in a MessageBox to test output
        MessageBox.Show("4\n" + ToLiterals("4"));
        MessageBox.Show("57\n" + ToLiterals("57"));
        MessageBox.Show("209\n" + ToLiterals("209"));
        MessageBox.Show("8734\n" + ToLiterals("8734"));
        MessageBox.Show("24567\n" + ToLiterals("24567"));
        MessageBox.Show("973654\n" + ToLiterals("973654"));
        MessageBox.Show("2315736\n" + ToLiterals("2315736"));
        MessageBox.Show("27065154\n" + ToLiterals("27065154"));
        MessageBox.Show("827464876\n" + ToLiterals("827464876"));
        MessageBox.Show("1675376283\n" + ToLiterals("1675376283"));
    }

    private string ToLiterals(string Input)
    {
        String Output = "";
        while (Input.Length > 0)
        {
            if (Input[0] == '0')//Ignore zeros
            {
                Input = Input.Remove(0, 1);
                Output += "And ";
                continue;
            }
            if (Input.Length % 3 != 2)
            {
                // We are at the Xs if our number is XYX,XYX,XYX
                // Either first, or third position in each segment.
                Output += ConvertChar(Input[0].ToString());
                if (Input.Length % 3 == 0 && Input.Length > 2) //third position in a segment

Well a switch is a manual and less elegant way of doing this.
A preferred way is having all the digit equivalents in a string table, and then having the conjuntion operators in another one, and a mapping list for mapping the info. I will try to post some code on it, using the neural approach that i did 6 years back.

The System.Guid.NewGuid( ) method seems to have returned duplicate GUIDs, two days in a roll.

Is it possible? Is there any related .NET (1.0 or 1.1) bug reported for this problem?

Design Time issue of Windows Control?

MudkiSekhon8-Sep-06 5:46

8-Sep-06 5:46

I am developing windows application in .NET 1.1 using C#. I have developed a custom control for text editing in my application. Whenever i drop that control from toolbox to the form, it does not show the control on form on design time. When I run thaat form, it works pretty fine and it shows that control at run time. But at design time, the Visual Studio is not showing the control. What is the Problem that the control is not shoiwn at design time?

Thanks,
Sandeep S. Sekhon

Re: Design Time issue of Windows Control?

If you have something in the design of the control that you do with some variable code then this occurs. For example you may be showing something that the control can only reach when the executable just runs. Something which can only have an appropriate value in runtime etc. Look for such things. You most probably have some code in control's initialize method.

Re: Design Time issue of Windows Control?

MudkiSekhon8-Sep-06 19:47

But running the application for one time, I closed the Visual Studio. I again opened that same application, but this time the control was shown on the form.

How to implement a singleton in c# generic classes

Chris Richner8-Sep-06 5:19

Chris Richner

8-Sep-06 5:19

Hi,

My class looks like

public abstract class ShellApplicationBase<TModule, TModuleLoader> : BaseNet.Icarus.Shell.Interfaces.IShellApplication
{
}

Every class in my app should now be able to access the shell class. Therefore I wanted to implement a singleton where one could access Shell.Instance.DoNothingAndWaitInfite();

to do so i did

static IShellApplication _instance;
public IShellApplication Instance
        {
            get
            {
                return _instance;
            }
        }

so far so good, there is a static public IShellApplication Property on my shell class. Now one would have the idea to access this singelton inside the app

ShellApplicationBase<???>.Instance.DoNothingAndWaitInfite();

How can one access the generic class .Instance without knowing the concrete Types ( ??? ) that have been used to make a new instance of the generic class?

I just like to access this shell class from everywhere in my app, any ideas?

You can code this way:

ShellApplicationBase<SomeConcretClassType>.GetInstance().DoNothingAndWaitInfite();

ShellApplicationBase<SomeConcretClassType> myInstance = ShellApplicationBase<SomeConcretClassType>.GetInstance(); 
myInstance.DoNothingAndWaitInfite();

Note that GetInstance() has been changed from Property to a public static method. I'm not sure about if you can use Property before any instance is constructed.

Hi Jun Du,

One have to know the SomeConcretClassType to access the class type to get the Instance property. What happens now if the class instance was made by

new ShellApplicationBase<ConcreteClassA>();

but one access the singleton inside the application as

ShellApplicationBase<ConcreteClassB>.Instance.DoNothingAndWaitInfite();

as far as I could see this is not the same but it would work, right? There must be a way to retrieve this Instance property on this generic class without giving types to access just the class type, am I wrong?

Yes, that is what you used generic class for. If you don't or needn't know SomeConcretClassType, why do you use a generic class?

Chris Richner wrote:

new ShellApplicationBase();

No, you can't call Singleton's contructor directly. It's protected. You have to get the instance via static call GetInstance().

Chris Richner wrote:

Give a try, but I never thought we could call any method of a generic class without defining a "concret" class first.
