Not able to open connection can be boiled down to configuration.
You usaly connect to specific IP on specific port. Routers, Firewalls and other internet securty solution can result in blocking port and ip if not in their white list.
The other possibilty is the program host or client offline

So you are saying ....... I just have to write a connection checking code (to check wether or not I am blocked or not by the securities) ..... if not bocked I can write a code to send some data.... Is that write?

|
|

I don't think that is possible. You coud try connecting, if fails you could promp user to check settings

This is the C code from MSDN[^]:
typedef struct {
DWORD dwDeltaTime;
DWORD dwStreamID;
DWORD dwEvent;
DWORD dwParms[];
} MIDIEVENT;The problem is with the array as the dwParms field.
If I just want one value, no problem - I just declare the struct like this:
[StructLayout(LayoutKind.Sequential)]
public struct MIDIEVENT
{
public int dwDeltaTime;
private int dwStreamID;
public uint dwEvent;
public uint dwParms;
}... and it works fine, but when I need an array of uints I can't make it work. If I change the last C# field to
[MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.ByValArray)]
public uint[] dwParms; then it works fine but only gets the first element. If I specify a SizeConst then I can get all the values fine, but I have no way of knowing how many elements there will be at compile time.
Help!

Hi Dave,
sorry for the delay. 
I haven't done this with a variable length array, I have some experience with ByValArray for fixed lengths, with SizeConst.
What you always can do is forget about the struct, just allocate an actual array (either int or uint, whatever suits best) with the right element count to contain the three individuals and the embedded array.
Then use GCHandle to pin it and get its IntPtr, and pass that. That is the way that always works, and never copies any data. BTW: don't forget to free the GCHandle when done.
I hope the native side will somehow figure out the length of the embedded array, and not read/write outside it.

What are the pro's and cons of copying data to unmanaged memory vs pinning in managed memory in your opinion?

pro GCHandle:
- avoids copying, which doubles the memory load, and trashes the cache.
- pinned arrays are read/write, they pass data both ways.
- you can free the GCHandle much later (when all the native stuff is done dealing with the array, could be more than one native call there, even async stuff).
- conceptually simpler than a lot of the Marshal stuff
contra GCHandle:
- unknown cost, assumed irrelevant for large arrays (I often do megabytes of image data)
- pinned means GC can't move, however >80KB is large-object heap anyway, and that one never(hardly ever?) compacts (that is bad in general, not due to GCHandle).
- needs more code in simple cases
- coder is responsible for freeing (I have an LP_Pinner class that implements IDisposable, hence using construct). See TrayIconBuster article.

Just a quickie Luc, If I have a struct instance that is pinned for use in a function, and that struct has an IntPtr as a field, is there any need to pin the field, or is that taken care of automatically by pinning the struct?

I don't expect automatic recursion to occur on pinning; IMO it is your responsibility to make sure somehow that all managed objects are immobilized for as long as your native code uses pointers to them.
I actually hope pinning isn't using any reflection to figure what is inside the object.

Makes sense. I didn't want to unnecessarily replicate something that may have already been done by the system.

You should specify SizeConst parameter for MarshalAsAttribute.You should declare your problematic field as IntPtr,if you don't know the array size.This I wrote this too into your thread before few days.When you get pointer to your struct use Marchal.Copy to copy the data to managed array.See this sample.

The size isn't known until runtime and varies hugely. I tried several different ways using an IntPtr but the data was not correct on the receiving end (a MIDI device). In fact, with the same data in, the output was different each time so I assume the pointer address was getting stored rather than the data itself!
The MIDIHDR structure takes an IntPtr in one field to the data - this data can be one or an array of MIDIEVENTs which contains the unspecified length array.
Luc's suggestion of converting the stuct to a uint[] as a whole instead of just that one field, pinning that and sending the IntPtr of the pinned array to the field in the MIDIHDR works though

I know you know this Dave - this is purely for anybody who's reading this thread who doesn't know about the SizeParamIndex parameter. This parameter (when applied in a MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.LPArray), points to the field in the structure that has the size of the returned array.

I'm one of those "anybody who's reading this thread who doesn't know about the SizeParamIndex parameter".
Thanks for the info, and BTW I hope I'll never need it...

I hadn't come accross that one Pete
It doesn't help with this problem as the size (in bytes) of the uint array is held in the lower 24 bits of the uint that is the previous field. Whoever came up with that idea wants shooting!
They could have had the upper 8 bits of the other field as a separate byte parameter for the flags it relates to, and kept a field purely for the size of the array... it would have used just one extra byte of memory per struct when each struct can be thousands of bytes long already so not much difference

I'd realised that; I just thought people might find it interesting - which shows what a bad sastard I really am.

Well Billy that's why we all like you. Together with you knowing and sharing a couple of things of course.

Hi,
I have tabcontrol that i added to it 10 tabs (named 1 to 10).
i also have listbox that contains 1 to 10 items.
I'm trying to combain between those to object,
when a some tab get focus (GotFocus event) the same name in the listbox will be selected automatic.
For exemple:
i press on the tab name 4,
the item named 4 in the kistbox will marked will blue (selected).
Someone can help me here?
|
|
|
|
|
I try to do this:
void tabControl1_GotFocus(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
foreach (TabPage item in tabControl1.TabPages)
{
if (item.Focus())
{
for (int i = 0; i < listBoxUsers.ListBoxControl.Items.Count; i++)
{
if (item.Text==listBoxUsers.ListBoxControl.Items[i].ToString())
{
listBoxUsers.ListBoxControl.SelectedItem = item.Text;
}
}
}
}
}
But it dosen't work so good,
can i improve it?
|

I woud try something this: And i am sorry, i deleted my previous answer because i didn't read correctly
void tabControl1_Selected(object sender, TabControlEventArgs e)
{
listBoxUsers.ListBoxControl.SelectedItem = tabControl1.SelectedTab.Name;
}
