It looks like you're trying to implement a multi-precision integer. But outside of the MIDI specification I don't know where an MPI of this type would still be in use today, so it sounds almost like a homework assignment.

What do you have so far? Maybe we could take a look at that and figure out what's going wrong in your code.

Aspect Oriented Programing in C#

I am trying to implement state verification as part of our automated testing framework. I want to use aspects to run a pre check and post check of any particular method call and only have an attribute indicating that that would be a verifiable method. This would be transparent to both the called and client code, performance is not an issue.

There are two articles i have fond on the code project that touch on aspects in C#:
http://www.codeproject.com/cs/design/aopsimplestscenario.asp?msg=2160427&mode=all&userid=3765364#xx2160427xx
http://www.codeproject.com/csharp/aspectintercept.asp?msg=2145384&mode=all&userid=3765364#xx2145384xx

Both use ContextBoundObject in their implementations. It seems that both solutions suffer from the same problem. Method injection does not work when a method is called from inside its own class. Something like this.

/***Will properly call pre and post methods*****/
MyClass myClass = new MyClass();
myClass.CallMethod();

/***Will not call pre and post methods*****/
this.CallMethod()

Has anyone else run into this problem? Am i going down the wrong path? Is there a better solution to the problem?

Not sure if it's what you are looking for, but have you looked at the Policy Injection Block in the latest Enterprise Library release?

How to adjust timeouts when loading from web (help!)

Hi folks-- first post

I'm encountering timeouts when opening URLs to a long-running webpage. It's actually a web service of sorts; the url returns an XML-encoded query result. The problem is that the result is pretty big and can take more than a minute to run. The C# program fails with an exception related to the timeout.

XmlReader reader = XmlReader.Create("http://theserver/thequery?param=1");

The problem is, I can't figure out how to adjust the timeout. That setting is in one of the hidden classes that XMLReader wraps (possibly System.IO.Stream.ReadTimeout or .CanTimeout), but I there doesn't seem to be a way to get to it to change or turn off the timeout.

Help??

May you should change tactics then. Use a WebRequest and create the XmlReader after the results have been returned.

Hi Mark
thanks for the tip. WebRequest does have a timeout setting.

I have yet to test this, but is this the right approach?

HttpWebRequest hwReq = HttpWebRequest.Create("http://server/query");<br />
hwReq.Timeout = 120000;   //120 seconds<br />
WebResponse wRes = hwReq.GetResponse();<br />
XmlReader reader = XmlReader( wRes.GetResponseStream() );

Also, do you know whether the WebRequest.Timeout property deals with time to open the http connection, time between request and response, or time for response to complete? The response stream itself does have its own Timeout setting.

thanks again!

The timeout is inclusive. You can also use it asynchronously.

No, when false no assignment should occur. Where did the null come from ?

The one possibility I see is:

c.SourceVideoClip= (!reader.IsDBNull(4)) ?
reader.GetString(4).Trim() : c.SourceVideoClip;

but even that is not absolutely correct; in several situations it could differ
from the original (when the condition is false):

when c is null;
when SourceVideoClip is a property without a getter;
when it is a property with side effects in its getter;
when it is a property that is not returning what you set it to (you should not do this, but you could...)
when it is volatile, i.e. other threads (or hardware) may cause it to change;

There may be a better attempt if something more was known about the c type !

ListViews and Context Menus..,

Hello experts,

I'm trying to have a certain context menu popup when right clicking a ListView's headers, and another context menu popup when right clicking inside of the ListView.

Problem is I can't find a way to monitor right clicks on the headers.
The ColumnClick event only gets fired when left clicking, and the MouseUp, MouseDown, MouseClick, etc. events are only fired when the mouse is bellow the headers (inside of the ListView).

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance,
Shy.

I've developed a simple workaround...
Here it is in case someone finds this post in the future...

The ContextMenuStrip property of the ListView is initially set to hold the context menu used when clicking the headers.
Assuming that the ListView is called "list", the context menu for the headers is called "ctxtHeaders", and the context menu for the body of the list is called "ctxtBody", here is the implementation:

private void list_MouseDown(object sender, MouseEventArgs e)
{
    if (e.Button == MouseButtons.Right)
        list.ContextMenuStrip = ctxtBody;
}

private void ctxtBody_Closing(object sender, ToolStripDropDownClosingEventArgs e)
{
    list.ContextMenuStrip = ctxtHeaders;
}

The code is settings the list's context menu to the body's context menu every time it is about to be shown (i.e. when the right mouse botton is clicked).
Then, when the context menu is closed, the list's context menu is set to the headers context menu.

TableAdapter Configuration failure

Hello world,

I'm working with vs 2005 using a typed dataset. I have a table, 'Trans', that has a relationship with 3 different parent tables ('Participants', 'Service Types', & 'Dependents'). In my actual database, Trans has a foreign key called 'serviceTypeID' which is the primary key in ServiceTypes. I just added a relationship with the other tables in visual studio. The problem lies in a column I created named 'service' in the Trans table. It's expression is Parent(FK_Transactions_ServiceTypes).service. This works fine when I run my program but as soon as I try to configure my TransactionsTableAdapter, I get this weird error 'Cannot find the parent relation 'FK_Transactions_ServiceTypes''. Mind you, I didn't rename the relation or even create it. It was done automatically and all the spelling is correct. Like I said, the expression works when I run my program. Anybody else run across this problem?

if (AuthorisedTable.Rows[tmpCnt]["Type"].ToString()=="Meeting")
{
string tmpOtherID = (AuthorisedTable.Rows[tmpCnt]["EventId"].ToString());
for (int tmpRace = 0; tmpRace < AuthorisedTable.Rows.Count; tmpRace++)

Try to replace the
this.dataGridAuthorised.Select(tmpRace);
to
this.dataGridAuthorised.Rows[tmpRace].Selected=true;

And check the selection mode property.

You can use the sender to find out which button was clicked

((Button)sender).Name<br />

I cant use this way because there are some button with same name on the Form and on the userControl.

I need some way to know who the owner of this button.

Is it the Form OR is it any of the userControls ....

Use the sender and the ((Control)sender).Parent property together to know which control is.

Hello,

I would use the 'as' operator for the casting.

Button actButton = sender as Button;
if(actButton!=null)
{
    actButton.Name

    //for the validation of the "owner", use the parent property and the 'is' operator
    if(actButton.Parent!=null)
    {
        if(actButton.Parent is YourUserControl_1)
        {

        }
        else if(actButton.Parent is YourUserControl_2)
        {
        
        }
    }
}

All the best,

Martin
