I want to open an Addin and execute a function within after adding or deleting an element.
This is the current code:
App.cs
using Autodesk.Revit.UI;
using System;
using System.Windows.Media.Imaging;
using System.IO;
using System.Reflection;
namespace RevitRadiatorAddin
{
public class App : IExternalApplication
{
Assembly assemblyPath = Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly();
public Result OnStartup(UIControlledApplication app)
{
String panelName = "Radiator Calculation";
RibbonPanel radiatorRibbon = app.CreateRibbonPanel(panelName);
PushButton ribbonButton = (PushButton)radiatorRibbon.AddItem(new PushButtonData("Radiator", "Open Radiator\n Calculation Addin", assemblyPath.Location, "RevitRadiatorAddin.MainWindowControl"));
//DC: fixed copy of .ico-file into AppData-folder
ribbonButton.LargeImage = new BitmapImage(new Uri(assemblyPath.Location.Replace(".dll",".ico"), UriKind.Absolute));
ribbonButton.ToolTip = "Click me!";
return Result.Succeeded;
}
public Result OnShutdown(UIControlledApplication a)
{
return Result.Succeeded;
}
}
}
The Add in calculates the heating output of radiators and the heating need of a room. I basically need an "action performed" after adding or deleting a radiator.
How can I do that?
You can implement a dynamic updater derived from the IUpdater interface using the functionality provided by the DMU or dynamic model updater framework.

I am trying to access the macros inside of an Access database (accdb).
I tried using:
using Microsoft.Office.Interop.Access.Dao;
...
DBEngine dbe = new DBEngine();
Database ac = dbe.OpenDatabase(fileName);
I found a container["Scripts"] that had a document["Macro1"] which is my target. I am struggling to access the contents of the document. I also question if the Microsoft.Office.Interop.Access.Dao is the best reference for what I am trying to achieve.
What is the best way to view the content of the macros and modules?
You can skip the DAO part, it's not needed in this case. Macros are project specific, so in order to get them all, you would need to loop through your projects. In my example, i just have one project.
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Threading.Tasks;
using Microsoft.Office.Interop.Access;
namespace Sandbox48
{
public class Program
{
public static void Main(string[] args)
{
Microsoft.Office.Interop.Access.Application oAccess = null;
string savePath = #"C:\macros\";
oAccess = new Microsoft.Office.Interop.Access.Application();
// Open a database in exclusive mode:
oAccess.OpenCurrentDatabase(
#"", //filepath
true //Exclusive
);
var allMacros = oAccess.CurrentProject.AllMacros;
foreach(var macro in allMacros)
{
var fullMacro = (AccessObject)macro;
Console.WriteLine(fullMacro.Name);
oAccess.SaveAsText(AcObjectType.acMacro, fullMacro.FullName, $"{savePath}{ fullMacro.Name}.txt");
}
Console.Read();
}
}
}
I know there is a bunch of threads on seemingly the same issue but I cannot for the life of me figure this out after 3 hours so I really need some help.
I understand that I am getting this error because the system does not have access to the file. I have tried setting permissions to full and a few other code snippets to solve my issue but none have worked.
This is a windows 10 app using Xaramin,
I am trying to populate a listbox with contact from an XML file. I have the list box itemsSource set to "Data Context" and path "myList". The XML build action is set to "Content" and the Copy to Output Directory Set to "Copy Always".
I have attempted to follow the tutorial from my course from the beginner 3 times and always get the same error.
Here is the error I am getting

I will be eternally grateful for any help regarding the matter. :)
You should not try to access restricted paths in constrained environments (like Windows Phone).
Instead, if you really need to embed this file with your application, change the build action to Embedded Resource and to Do not copy for your xml file, and then retrieve the resource inside your code as an Embedded Resource:
public void LoadContacts()
{
const string fileName = "Contacts.xml";
var assembly = typeof(MainPage).GetTypeInfo().Assembly;
var path = assembly.GetManifestResourceNames()
.FirstOrDefault(n => n.EndsWith(fileName, StringComparison.OrdinalIgnoreCase));
if(path == null)
throw new Exception("File not found");
using (var stream = assembly.GetManifestResourceStream(path))
using (var reader = XmlReader.Create(stream))
{
while (reader.Read())
{
if (reader.Name.Equals("ID") && (reader.NodeType == XmlNodeType.Element))
{
lstd.Add(reader.ReadElementContentAsString());
}
}
}
DataContext = this; // better to move this inside the constructor
}
I am working in project in which I have used vlc plugin v2. the path for my video is
axVLC.playlist.add(#"D:\My Project\Science\Resources\myvideo.mp4");
axVLC.playlist.play();
now the problem is when I build the project and give it to someone and he/she install it on his/her computer , it show exception that video path is wrong. I am sure that path is not suitable as my the video path in my project is D:... and he/she installed it on C.
So my question is that is there any way to give it common path by which user don`t face such kind of error
Import IO
Using System.IO;
then declare a string that will reference to your video folder
string AbsoluteRef;
use this code in your form load
if (System.Diagnostics.Debugger.IsAttached)
{
AbsoluteRef = Path.GetFullPath(Application.StartupPath + "\\..\\..\\Resources\\");
}
else
{
AbsoluteRef = Application.StartupPath + "\\Resources\\";
}
Now declare a string for your video or which ever file like
string vlcvideo;
now add the two together
vlcvideo = AbsoluteRef & "myvideo.mp4";
Finnally add all this into your vlc plugin
axVLC.playlist.add(vlcvideo);
Complete Code looks like so.
using Microsoft.VisualBasic;
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.ComponentModel;
using System.Data;
using System.Drawing;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Windows.Forms;

string AbsoluteRef = null;
private void frmMain_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
if (System.Diagnostics.Debugger.IsAttached)
{
AbsoluteRef = Path.GetFullPath(Application.StartupPath + "\\..\\..\\Resources\\");
}
else
{
AbsoluteRef = Application.StartupPath + "\\Resources\\";
}
string vlcVideo = AbsoluteRef + "myvideo.mp4";
axVLC.playlist.add(vlcvideo);
}
I'm compiling code on-the-fly using System.CodeDom.Compiler. Everything inside the compiled source works well, whatever I'm putting inside this source. I know how to call my functions:
o = results.CompiledAssembly.CreateInstance("Foo.Bar");
MethodInfo mi = o.GetType().GetMethod("SayHello");
mi.Invoke(o, null);
But let's say I'm using a WebClient to retrieve a string asynchronously using WebClient.DownloadStringAsync. Or any other context where I want my compiled source to tell to the host "Hey, I got a nice string ready for you." For the example, I've used a WebBrowser. Basically, I know how to deal with each of the two instances: My hosting program and the compiled program, but I want my compiled program to communicate with the host. By the way, I'm not a super-experimented programmer, so no obvious method comes to my mind.
What I've tried:
1 . I don't really need to try it because it would work, but I could use a timer reading a strings stack or tasks queue inside the compiled source, but the purpose of my application is to have +- 60 scripts able to execute ponctual tasks, not continuous background processes, so it wouldn't be efficient on the CPU.
2 . I've passed the handler to the compiled source like if it was in the hosting app:
//In the hosting app
MethodInfo mi2 = o.GetType().GetMethod("attachCallbackToHost");
mi2.Invoke(o2, new object[] { new WebBrowserNavigatedEventHandler (wb_navigated) });
//... And the handler
public static void wb_navigated(object sender, WebBrowserNavigatedEventArgs e)
{
string browserHtmlFromCompiledSource = ((WebBrowser)sender).DocumentText;
MessageBox.Show(browserHtmlFromCompiledSource);
}
// Plain text from the compiled source code
public void attachCallbackToHost(WebBrowserNavigatedEventHandler handlerFromTheHost)
{
wb.Navigated += handlerFromTheHost;
}
And it did nothing.
3 . Maybe I could share a class or variable by passing it to the compiled assembly?
So, the question is either this or the other:
How to watch efficiently for change inside a specific variable or property inside the compiled program?
How to attach a callback to the host?
Ok. I got it: In order to access the host from the compiled source, the only thing required is to add the host assembly to the refered assemblies in the compiler parameters:
compilerParams.ReferencedAssemblies.Add(Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().Location);
So no need for any special callback or INotifier.

i know i could search proccessId / name of running tasks and kill processes i need .
though till now i was not developing schedualed tasks / self executble Applications,
so i didn't need to know how to make the application close itself after execition
trying to close everything (including WebDriver) via Application.Exit + OR this.Close()
right after i have got what i was looking for. mission Complete .
please close ... no more work for you .
but mr . Program.cs still needs somthing from Form1.
saying somthing about
Cannot access a disposed object.
Object name: 'Form1'.
any combination of both was returning in some point an exeption error
(from program.cs ) even though mission complete . no more code was requested .(?) by me..atleast.

Why use a winform application? A Console application would probably suffice for what you are doing. Once Main() ends your app will close as well. Main() never ends in a winform app because of the applications runloop.
Edit:
Here would be the correct way to do this. You need to register to the forms Load event and run your code there, not in the constructor. You can't close a winform from inside a constructor.
Edit 2: Put this code in the Form1() constructor. Somewhere after InitializeComponent();
this.Load += (sender,args)=>{ /*do all your work here*/
string extractededVal = Iengn.ExtractPageValue(Iengn.itrfWebEng);
string flnm = #" the directory path to file --> \dolarRate.asp";
File.WriteAllText(fn, extractededVal);
Application.Exit();
};
