What have you tried?
Where are you stuck?
What help do you need?

THis is a broad subject with no real detail provided, and we can't just tell you what to do, because we have no idea what stage you are at already. Heck, we don't even know if the "second application" is a separate process from the first - and that's unbelievably relevant!

So answer the three questions above, and remember that we can't see your screen, access your HDD, or read your mind - we only get exactly what you type to work with.

Dear all,

I have two applications:

Console one it server for Tcp pertinant socket :

using System;
using System.Net;
using System.Net.Sockets;
using System.Text;
using System.Threading;

using System.IO;

In Client i need to press connect in order to estabish socket
and after that press send bouton to send messages without disconnecting socket.
with this code i couldn't handle reply for my message from server.

Saving usercontrol design-time properties

I swear I have been searching for an answer for hours but could not find any understandable example or article Frown | :-(

How do I make a property of a Winform usercontrol retain it's design time value? I added a new UserControl object. I put a label on the control. Added a property called "KeyText". I saw in few articles the attribute "DesignerSerailizationVisibility" mentioned so I added it as well.

[DesignerSerializationVisibility(DesignerSerializationVisibility.Content)]
public string KeyText
{
    get { return label1.Text; }
    set
    {
        label1.Text = value;
    }
}

In the control, the default value of label1.Text is "X".

Then I added the control to a form. The property "KeyText" showed as one of the properties of the control. Great. So I changed it to "A". The design-time form showed A". Great. I compiled and ran the program - the control on the form showed "X" instead of "A".

What do I need to change to make the property persisteable? In VB6 I use something called PropBag to save and read design time properties.

OK, I added a new UserControl (called MyControl) to my project, dropped a label on it called MyLabel.
I changed it's Text property to "Default".
I added a string property called LabelText to the control:

public string LabelText
    {
    get
        {
        return MyLabel.Text;
        }
    set
        {
        MyLabel.Text = value;
        }
    }

And compiled the app.
Then I dropped two instances of MyControl (MC1 and MC2) onto my form.
I changed the LabelText property of MC2 to "Revised" in the designer and ran the app.
MC1 had "Default", MC2 had "Revised"

So what did I do that you didn't?

That line is the problem. The documentation isn't particularly clear, but:

DesignerSerializationVisibilityAttribute Class (System.ComponentModel) | Microsoft Docs[^]
With the DesignerSerializationVisibilityAttribute, you can indicate whether the value for a property is Visible, and should be persisted in initialization code, Hidden, and should not be persisted in initialization code, or consists of Content, which should have initialization code generated for each public, not hidden property of the object assigned to the property.

The property value is a String. The String type doesn't have any public properties which can be set, so no initialization code will be generated.

Either set it to DesignerSerializationVisibility.Visible, or remove the attribute.

You have an awful lot of objects there that should be disposed of. GDI resources are finite so every time you hit the event handler you are consuming resources without freeing them up. For instance, when you instantiate a Font, that's disposable so you should Dispose it.

Multi threading in c#

User-862169513-Apr-20 1:49

At few places I am reading that multi threading is a process in which we run multiple threads under a process. But at few places I can see that multi threading is a process of executing multiple threads. Like Working on word and listening music from different application. As they both are having different process like word.exe and vlc.exe.
So what should be correct way so say about multi threading?

Re: Multi threading in c#

OriginalGriff13-Apr-20 3:00

Multi-threading in the context of writing an app is the system of splitting work into multiple threads within a single process (the app execution space) to either free one thread (normally the GUI thread) of work, or to process data in parallel for higher throughput.
In this context, there is one process, which consists of memory plus a number of threads (which may change at run time)

The "working on word and listening to music" isn't really multi-threading - it's multi-process as the threads do not share a common execution space, and cannot access each other's memory. It's closer to the concept of "multitasking^*" than "multi-threading", although it does involve separate threads as each process must have at least one active thread in order to remain in existence.

* Multitasking in the sense that "women are supposed to be better at it than men" but actually there isn't a difference

Please suggest a solution if any alternate Library to Read Value from OPC Server.

textbox update

_Q12_9-Apr-20 19:19

_Q12_

9-Apr-20 19:19

Inside a textbox i add many lines of data, ended with a newline(\r\n) for each of it.
For example:
Aaa
Bbb
Ccc
Each line must be read in a backgroundWorker1_DoWork event. Basically, is a time delay of a couple of seconds between jumping to the other line to be read and processed.

My problem is this: - If i add a new line, WHILE the DoWork is running, the textbox.List.lenght is bigger by 1. What should LOAD that updated List, and pass the next line consecutively, to the worker?
At this point i am blank.

What i did so far...
I inverted the list
why? because my processing is not disturbed by each new line added on top, but is accumulating lines at the end, maintaining the lines numbers and contents when it jumps to the next line.

list1.Clear(); label1.Text = "";
list1.AddRange(textBox1.Lines);
list1.Reverse();
for (int i = 0; i < list1.Count; i++)
{
    label1.Text += list1[i] + nl;
}

And now the output is:
Ccc
Bbb-updateLine
Aaa
a1-nl
a2-nl

One solution to updating lines by mistake, and avoid re-processing them, is to completely erase the completed "worked" lines from the List and update somewhere else the finished lines.

Set up a separate "concurrent queue" for the background worker to access "new lines".

Given the different actions the user can perform on the content of the TextBox ... paste, delete selected lines, etc. ...

I think your strategy should be to perform whatever content enumeration only when the textBox is not in use.

What is the reason you think you need to use a BackGroundWorker here ?

If you must use it, look at the use of 'ManualResetEvent, and use of 'Monitor and 'Lock.

I set the AssemblyInfo in my app to this:

Yet each time I compile it only increments the Revision, not the Build #. So I end up with something like "1.0.7404.29813", with only the last part ever being incremented.

I display the version info in the status bar of my app, and that's a lot for the users to read back to me during debugging. Is there a way to increment the Build portion each time I compile?

If it's not broken, fix it until it is.

traversing two lists simultaneously

9-Apr-20 9:11

suppose you have two lists of the same size, i.e. same number of elements

List<int> a, List<int> b

is it possible to traverse the two lists simultaneously and compare the values? Element 1 in list a to element 1 in list b, element 2 in list a to element 2 in list b, etc. I use a Foreach when traversing lists, but am unsure of how to do a side by side comparison of list b when I am traversing list a.

      {
      ...

Lists work just like arrays, so you can use either an enumerator (foreach) or you can use an index value:

for(int index = 0; index < someValue; ++index)
{

    if (a[index] == b[index])
    {
        // true
    }
    else
    {
        // false
    }
}

If the "lengths" of a and b are equal, you can maintain your own index:

int i = 0;

foreach ( int value in a ){
   bool result = (value == b[i++]);
}

Note the suffix (++) operator in this case.
