Aha. Strings probably are the only situation where I might consider it, using a concatenation, i.e. calculate x+"#"+y at run-time, and have "0#1" and the like as switch case values (C# supports string-based switches, a lot of languages don't). It might be acceptable as the cost is limited and readability does not suffer at all.

Good idea!!!! 
Thanks Luc!!

You could convert it to a string, and switch to the correct label (like "0,0"). This[^] blogentry might be interesting if you're considering that option

Obviously not, as I'm sure you would have found out by trying to compile this.
Fortunately, switch can be nested.
untested:
int x = 0;
int y = 1;
switch (x)
{
case 0:
switch (y)
{
case 0:
Console.WriteLine("0,0");
break;
case 1:
Console.WriteLine("0,1");
break;
}
break;
case 1:
switch (y)
{
case 0:
Console.WriteLine("1,0");
break;
case 1:
Console.WriteLine("1,1");
break;
}
break;
}

Having read the other reponses, first off I'll say that I very much dislike switching on strings. 
How much do these values vary? Are they coordinates for a small grid? Is the grid size defined?
I would prefer to define an enumeration to hold the values, for instance:
public enum Coord
{
XY00 = 00
,
XY01 = 01
,
XY10 = 10
,
XY11 = 11
}
and then switch on that.

you are right..but in my case, a switch on strings was suitable..
anyway thanks to all

Out of curiosity, why is that?

One big reason is case-sensitivity.
But mainly because it's a symptom of a bad design. Most times I see or would use a switch on a string, there's a better way. I much prefer to have an enumeration. As a plus, the enumeration Parse method accepts a boolean to do case-insensitive parsing.
It's for what my EnumTransmogrifier[^] was created.

I may be totally missing the point of your question (I usually do ) but wouldn't
Console.WriteLine("{0},{1}", x, y);
do that for you?

Nope. See default.

I saw it.
Implementing value checking for assignments to 'x' and 'y', using properties perhaps, would obviate the necessity though.

HI,
May i know,
What are the prerequisites to learn sharepoint?
Iam only C, C++, VC++ Programmer Having 5 years of IT Experiance.
Thanks & Regards,

Asking in this[^] forum would be a better bet.

As Pete has said posting to the SharePoint forum would have been better, however, since you've already begun.
First, since you have no background in .NET, start there. The default language for SharePoint is C# so dig in. After that, since SharePoint is based on ASP.NET you will need to learn and understand it. After, and ONLY AFTER, you have these foundations, then you can start learning SharePoint.
I know the language. I've read a book. - _Madmatt

Sorry I made a mistake in the previous post. I highlight tho point in the code with the error with the bold characters.
Hello
I am writing very simple code with C# to read and write data from Rockwell Automation PLC through their communication server (OPC srever) RSLINX.
I can read data but I cannot write because executable exit with error when I call the
RSLinxOCgroup.SyncWrite(item, ref syncserverhandles, ref datatowritetoplcmemory, out SyncErrors)
(dll: RsiOPCAuto.OPCGroupClass.SyncWrite(Int32 NumItems, Array& ServerHandles, Array& Values, Array& Errors) )
error : Specified array was not of the expected type.
the error, I suppose, refers to the datatowritetoplcmemory
that is declared as :
System.Array datatowritetoplcmemory;
datatowritetoplcmemory = Array.CreateInstance(System.Type.GetType("System.Int32"), 10)
and then filled for example like this:
for (i = 0; i < 10; i++)
{ datatowritetoplcmemory.SetValue (i * i, i) }
Can somebody help me?
Thank you
Best regards
rodrigo

You didn't need to post again. You can edit your posts if they are incorrect. Please use the pre tags for code snippets and remove the other post as it serves no point.

I've been a Rockwell user for many years, sounds like a good project.
I'd think that your code should interface with any OPC server and not necessarily specific to RSLinx, that's the point right?

|
|

I think you addressed this to the wrong person.

Sorry for my late reply.
In this case the application is dedicated to the communication with RSLinx.
Here I attach the code where I cut many non intersting lines of code so it will not run if you try.
Then if yo need I can attach the complete version.
Anyway the lines that i am interested in are highlighted.

I need help on a project which requires me to make use of Expression Blend & WPF to create a software that can:
1. accept & analysis user ink input
2. search library/source/database for similar shape/character
3. display 4 results found
4. display user's choice on textbox
In case I didnt make myself clear, think of it as iPhone's chinese character writing software. Just that in my case im using some image symbols instead of chinese language. Im using Visual Studio 2008 & Expression Blend 2.

You didn't. What exactly are you expecting from us? What code have you written? What are you stuck on? What have you researched? All I see there is a vague set of requirements.

Perhaps you could start by posting this in the Silverlight/WPF forum?
Real men don't use instructions. They are only the manufacturers opinion on how to put the thing together.
