ICollection is implemented by List. You can create your list with:
public virtual ICollection<Person> People {get;set;} = new List<Person>();

Ok solved this, by implementing
modelBuilder.Entity<Book>()
.HasMany<Book>(g => g.Books)
.WithRequired(s => s.Parent)
.HasForeignKey<int?>(s => s.ParentId);
thanks for your help.

I have a txtSearch and btnSearch and i have a web browser. a webrowser have a Textbox1 in element and a Button1. Is that possible, once i entered a value in txtsearch automatically inputted to the Textbox1 in web browser. and lastly how to avoid to clear the value in txtSearch once the webbrowser refreshing.
Thanks in advance
Code below is working for automatically click the button in web browser once click the BtnSearch.
private async void BtnSearch_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
HTMLDocument doc = (HTMLDocument)MyWebBrowser.Document;
HTMLInputElement btnsearch = (HTMLInputElement)doc.all.item("Button1", 0);
btnsearch.click();
}

Hi , I have here an ping application implemented as a console application.
I want to turn this into a continuous ping application. Can someone give me a tip how to change this code so it runs continuously.
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Threading.Tasks;
using System.Threading;
using System.Net;
using System.Net.NetworkInformation;
namespace PingAppConsole
{
class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
string host, data;
byte[] buffer;
int timeout;
Ping pingSender = new Ping();
PingOptions options = new PingOptions();
options.DontFragment = true;
data = "Rodham street";
buffer = Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes(data);
timeout = 120;
host = "www.google.no";
PingReply reply = pingSender.Send(host, timeout, buffer, options);
if (reply.Status == IPStatus.Success)
{
Console.WriteLine(" Ping communication status for {0}:", host);
Console.WriteLine(" ------------------------------------------");
Console.WriteLine(" Address: {0}", reply.Address.ToString());
Console.WriteLine(" RoundTrip time (mSec): {0}", reply.RoundtripTime);
Console.WriteLine(" Time to live: {0}", reply.Options.Ttl);
Console.WriteLine(" Dont fragment: {0}", reply.Options.DontFragment);
Console.WriteLine(" Buffer size: {0}", reply.Buffer.Length);
Console.WriteLine(" ------------------------------------------");
}
else
{
Console.WriteLine(" Error connecting to network address/name {0}", host);
}
Console.WriteLine(" Press CR or Enter to Quit the application");
Console.ReadLine();
}
}
}
|
|
|
|
|
put an infinite loop around the ping call
while ( true ) {
PingReply reply = pingSender.Send(host, timeout, buffer, options)
else
{
Console.WriteLine("Error ... ");
}
}
Not sure if you could ever break out of that, though. You'd probably want to reduce that to one line of output, similar to what you get from ping from the command prompt. Oh, and you'll probably want to add a delay at the bottom of the loop so you don't flood the network with ping requests. Thread.Sleep() seems like a good option.

Thanks 
Is there a way I can check all the nodes in the network and also get the number of the nodes in my network segment?
|
|
|
|
|
It used to be that most nodes on a lan would respond to a broadcast ping, but most systems do not do so any longer. Many hosts also employ firewalls to block pings. And firewalls can be used to block all connections except from certain hosts, or maybe even all incoming connections.
If all your nodes are connected through a simple hub, then you might be able to sniff packets on the wire and see what the source and destination nodes are. If you're using smart switches then the switch might only forward packets between the ports the nodes are attached to, so you might not see packets.
So there's not any good way to do that. There's only the brute force approach, a la Windows | Nmap Network Scanning.
Be aware that scanning networks where you do not have permission to do so is not advised. Its not unlike someone going around the outside of your hose checking to see if any of your doors or windows are openable. There might not be any intent to create mischief, but it certainly looks like you're trying to break in!

Ok thanks. If you would write pseudocode for it, how would it look like based on my initial code?
|
|
|
|

Use a Timer. Call your routine from the Timer's Tick event. Disable / enable the Timer each time you handle the event to avoid reentrancy with short intervals. Though with a timer and status reporting, I would probably use a Windows app instead of a Console app.

Hi!
I have a question regarding the topic I mentioned in the subject.
I am trying to process numbers (voltage values) and print them nicely on the user interface of my software. What I do now is that I manually code everything. I have 8 different values and I do the following:
Label1.Text = value1.ToString("0.###") + " V";
Label2.Text = value2.ToString("0.###") + " V";
.
.
.
Label8.Text = value8.ToString("0.###") + " V";
"
It works, and everything, but I wonder if there is an elegant solution which runs through the labels and the variables at the same time? And also, is it faster in the more elegant way?
And I have another question related to the code above. Let's say, these values are smaller than 1. In that case, it would be nicer to print the voltage in milivolts, so we see the digits in a more convenient way. For that, my idea would be a simple if-else statement:
if(value1<1.0)
{
Label1.Text = (1000*value1).ToString("0.###") + " mV";
}
else
{
Label1.Text = value1.ToString("0.###") + " V";
}
But, the problem is similar as the first part of the problem. Should I go through each of these cases manually by writing 8 if-else statements for each values, or there is a better (faster), more elegant way?
My code is starting to have a lot of if-else statements because of similar things (for example, checking the state of check boxes) and I start to think whether it has a negative impact on the performance or not?
Thank you very much for your input!

You could put the values in a list or array and use a simple loop to format them. You may also need another array to contain all the label references.
|
|
|
|
|
Thank you, I continued along this idea. I looked up how to create lists and I put everything in their corresponding lists. The code looks more clean now.
|
|
|
|

My vote for list v array is to use an array. Populating it is, then, very simple
Label[] labels = [ label1, label2, ..., label8 };
The original message asked about performance. Forget about performance unless you get noticeable slowness. Your original method probably runs fastest, but it leads to lengthy hard to maintain code. Using lists or arrays makes it much easier to work with, very easy to modify for adding new labels etc, and the difference in performance is not going to be noticeable (unless you have thousands of labels, in which case you would use a different method).

I think this message was meant for the OP.

I agree with Richard: have an array.
It might be worth doing it this way:
Create a class to hold the value and it's associated label. You can then create an array or other collection of class instances, and just loop through them, doing the same code once.
To help with that, override the ToString method in the class, and have it return the "human readable" value:
public class DisplayValue
{
public double Value { get; set; }
public Label Label { get; set; }
public override string ToString()
{
return Value < 1.0 ? (1000 * value).ToString("0.###") + " mV"
: Value.ToString("0.###") + " V";
}
}
That way, it can be rather more flexible than just setting a label value.
foreach (DisplayValue dv in Values)
{
dv.Label.Text = dv.ToString();
}

Thank you for the very detailed response, I really appreciate it!
I made it with lists at this moment, just to clean up the code and test if I am able to do it. So far, it works, but I create a new branch for the code where I implement your solution.

Would be a good candidate to create a custom control; one that exposes the value, and has a dropdownlist to select the desired unit/multiplier for visualization purposes (meaning, without overwriting the value it is showing for editing).

Thank you, this is a good idea! However, I only have either Volts or miliVolts, so I don't know if it is necessary to create a dropdown list just for two different units. But, when there's a broader range, I think it is a very good approach!

You could create a method which would take care of the formatting:
private static string FormatVoltage(double voltage)
{
return (voltage < 1d)
? string.Format("{0:f3} mV", 1000 * voltage)
: string.Format("{0:f3} V", voltage);
}
Label1.Text = FormatVoltage(value1);
Label2.Text = FormatVoltage(value2);
The advantage of this approch is that you define the logic in a single place, that you can use wherever you need. If you were to change the display format, you would then have to change it only in a single place.

1) Every label will have a "parent", and that label will be a child of that parent's "control collection" which you can iterate without having to create a separate array.
2) The "values" can come from anywhere (you weren't specific). The "Tag" property of a label can be used to "address" these values.
3) Instead of creating a new "value class", you can define a "property" where the "getter" returns the appropriate string:
public string foo { get { return condition ? A : doSomething(A); } }

Thank you for the answer!
To answer the 2nd point and make things more specific:
An Arduino Nano is sending values to the serial port in the following formatting:
value1 \t value2 \t ... value8 \n
Each new line of the above series of values will trigger an event handler which will start the processing of the data. Then, for example, I show the values in labels or plot them real time on a chart. Since, I want to filter what I want to see (e.g. only value5), I use check boxes to turn different channels on and off. This is where I needed the plenty of if statements.

Your "values" can be string.Split on "tabs / spaces" and you have your values array. If the values arrive "too fast", your event handler may be inadequate and you need to queue the results and handle them on a separate thread.

Yes, exactly what I am doing.
private void Myport_DataReceived(object sender, SerialDataReceivedEventArgs e)
{
in_data = serialPort.ReadLine();
this.Invoke(new Action(dataProcessing));
}
split = in_data.Split('\t');
The split is an array, where I take the channels as split[0], split[1]...etc. And yes, above ~500 samples/second, the data starts to lag and "pile up". I will do this queuing later, when I really need these high speeds.
