Results in descending order

I've got a block of code which sums up time togged for various tasks in a project and returns the total hours logged per project (intMinutesLogged). How do I get my results n descending order?
static async void NotifyEntriesByWorkSpace(Dictionary<string, List<TimeEntry>> dicEntriesByWorkspace, string strChatURL)
{
string strMessage = "";
foreach (var kvpEntry in dicEntriesByWorkspace)
{
var lstTimeEntries = kvpEntry.Value;
string strTitle = "";
var intMinutesLogged = 0;
var intMinutesBillable = 0;
var intMinutesNonBillable = 0;
foreach (var objTimeEntry in lstTimeEntries)
{
if (objTimeEntry.Billable)
{
intMinutesBillable += objTimeEntry.TimeInMinutes;
}
else
{
intMinutesNonBillable += objTimeEntry.TimeInMinutes;
}
}
strTitle = Workspaces.getWorkspaceFromCache(kvpEntry.Key).Title;
//Console.WriteLine(intMinutesLogged + ": " + strTitle + "m");
intMinutesLogged = intMinutesBillable + intMinutesNonBillable;
Console.WriteLine(TimeLoggedMessage(intMinutesLogged) + ": " + strTitle + " " + "(Billable: " + TimeLoggedMessage(intMinutesBillable) + ";" + " " + "Non-Billable: " + TimeLoggedMessage(intMinutesNonBillable) + ")");
strMessage += TimeLoggedMessage(intMinutesLogged) + ": " + strTitle + " " + "(Billable: " + TimeLoggedMessage(intMinutesBillable) + ";" + " " + "Non-Billable: " + TimeLoggedMessage(intMinutesNonBillable) + ")" + "\n";
}
await SendMessage(strChatURL, strMessage);
}
static string TimeLoggedMessage(int intMinutesLogged)
{
return intMinutesLogged / 60 + "h" + " " + intMinutesLogged % 60 + "m";
}

You could use LINQ for this: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/api/system.linq.enumerable.orderbydescending?view=net-6.0
You could create a simple class or anonymous type to hold the integer values you're summing up (total minutes, billable minutes, non-billable minutes). Then you could populate a collection of this type within the code you shared and afterwards call OrderByDescending on it. You could order based on any of the three integer values.

File's last modified time not changing

I have written the following code in a Timer's Tick event to checking if the file modification time of an image has changed then copy that image and save it to another directory. Sometimes GetLastWrittenTime() doesn't change even though the file has already been overwritten.
if (File.Exists(Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.ApplicationData) + "\\CaptureMerge.bmp"))
{
DateTime filetime=File.GetLastWriteTime(Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.ApplicationData) + "\\CaptureMerge.bmp");
if (!filetime.Equals(lastmMdifiedTime))
{
if (txtkapan.Text != "" && txtlot.Text != "")
{
if (reg.Read("AUTOPATH") == null || reg.Read("AUTOPATH").Equals(""))
{
Directory.CreateDirectory("D:\\" + txtkapan.Text + "\\" + txtlot.Text);
}
else
{
Directory.CreateDirectory(reg.Read("AUTOPATH")+"\\" + txtkapan.Text + "\\" + txtlot.Text);
}
string image_name;
if (txtlot.Text.Length <= 3 || txtparty.Text.Length <= 3 || txtkapan.Text.Length <= 3)
{
image_name = txtparty.Text.Substring(0, txtparty.Text.Length) + "_" + txtkapan.Text.Substring(0, txtkapan.Text.Length) + "_" + txtlot.Text.Substring(0, txtlot.Text.Length) + "_" + DateTime.Now.ToString("yyyy-MM-dd_HH_mm") + ".jpg";
}
else
{
image_name = txtparty.Text.Substring(0, 3) + "_" + txtkapan.Text.Substring(0, 3) + "_" + txtlot.Text.Substring(0, 3) + "_" + DateTime.Now.ToString("yyyy-MM-dd_HH_mm") + ".jpg";
}
try
{
System.Drawing.Image img = System.Drawing.Image.FromFile(Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.ApplicationData) + "\\CaptureMerge.bmp");
img.Save(reg.Read("AUTOPATH") + "\\" + txtkapan.Text + "\\" + txtlot.Text + "\\" + image_name, ImageFormat.Jpeg);
lastmMdifiedTime = File.GetLastWriteTime(Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.ApplicationData) + "\\CaptureMerge.bmp");
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
MessageBox.Show("Exception:" + ex.ToString());
}
}
else { }
}
}
Please tell me what is wrong in my code.

how to make objects using an index number

I want to make my program that i made way shorter then it is right now.
I make 8 different objects and do things with them but I want to make it with something like a for loop and an index number.
Is there a way to do this, because i've looked it up but don't seem to find anything.
The objects and such are in Dutch sorry for that.
private void AankomstButton_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
if (welkKind == 1)
{
if (File.Exists(#"Bestanden/" + kind1.Naam + "_" + DateTime.Now.ToString("Y") + ".txt") == false)
{
using (StreamWriter sw = new StreamWriter(#"Bestanden/" + kind2.Naam + "_" + DateTime.Now.ToString("Y") + ".txt")) ;
}
else
{
using (StreamWriter sw = File.AppendText(#"Bestanden/" + kind2.Naam + "_" + DateTime.Now.ToString("Y") + ".txt"))
{
sw.WriteLine(DateTime.Now.ToString("d") + " Aangekomen: " + DateTime.Now.ToString("t"));
}
}
}
if (welkKind == 2)
{
if (File.Exists(#"Bestanden/" + kind2.Naam + "_" + DateTime.Now.ToString("Y") + ".txt"))
{
using (StreamWriter sw = File.AppendText(#"Bestanden/" + kind2.Naam + "_" + DateTime.Now.ToString("Y") + ".txt"))
{
sw.WriteLine(DateTime.Now.ToString("d") + " Aangekomen: " + DateTime.Now.ToString("t"));
}
}
else
{
using (StreamWriter sw = new StreamWriter(#"Bestanden/" + kind2.Naam + "_" + DateTime.Now.ToString("Y") + ".txt"))
{
sw.WriteLine(DateTime.Now.ToString("d") + " Aangekomen: " + DateTime.Now.ToString("t"));
}
}
}
if (welkKind == 3)
{
if (File.Exists(#"Bestanden/" + kind3.Naam + "_" + DateTime.Now.ToString("Y") + ".txt"))
{
using (StreamWriter sw = File.AppendText(#"Bestanden/" + kind3.Naam + "_" + DateTime.Now.ToString("Y") + ".txt"))
{
sw.WriteLine(DateTime.Now.ToString("d") + " Aangekomen: " + DateTime.Now.ToString("t"));
}
}
else
{
using (StreamWriter sw = new StreamWriter(#"Bestanden/" + kind3.Naam + "_" + DateTime.Now.ToString("Y") + ".txt"))
{
sw.WriteLine(DateTime.Now.ToString("d") + " Aangekomen: " + DateTime.Now.ToString("t"));
}
}
}
if (welkKind == 4)
{
if (File.Exists(#"Bestanden/" + kind4.Naam + "_" + DateTime.Now.ToString("Y") + ".txt"))
{
using (StreamWriter sw = File.AppendText(#"Bestanden/" + kind4.Naam + "_" + DateTime.Now.ToString("Y") + ".txt"))
{
sw.WriteLine(DateTime.Now.ToString("d") + " Aangekomen: " + DateTime.Now.ToString("t"));
}
}
else
{
using (StreamWriter sw = new StreamWriter(#"Bestanden/" + kind4.Naam + "_" + DateTime.Now.ToString("Y") + ".txt"))
{
sw.WriteLine(DateTime.Now.ToString("d") + " Aangekomen: " + DateTime.Now.ToString("t"));
}
}
}
if (welkKind == 5)
{
if (File.Exists(#"Bestanden/" + kind5.Naam + "_" + DateTime.Now.ToString("Y") + ".txt"))
{
using (StreamWriter sw = File.AppendText(#"Bestanden/" + kind5.Naam + "_" + DateTime.Now.ToString("Y") + ".txt"))
{
sw.WriteLine(DateTime.Now.ToString("d") + " Aangekomen: " + DateTime.Now.ToString("t"));
}
}
else
{
using (StreamWriter sw = new StreamWriter(#"Bestanden/" + kind5.Naam + "_" + DateTime.Now.ToString("Y") + ".txt"))
{
sw.WriteLine(DateTime.Now.ToString("d") + " Aangekomen: " + DateTime.Now.ToString("t"));
}
}
}

If you keep an array of children (kind), you can access the array by index.
Kind[] children = new Kind[] { kind1, kind2 };
if (welkKind >= 0 && welkKind < children.Length)
{
Kind kind = children[welkKind];
string fileName = #"Bestanden/" + kind.Naam + "_" + DateTime.Now.ToString("Y") + ".txt";
if (File.Exists(fileName))
{
using (StreamWriter sw = new StreamWriter(fileName))
{
sw.WriteLine(DateTime.Now.ToString("d") + " Aangekomen: " + DateTime.Now.ToString("t"));
}
}
else
{
using (StreamWriter sw = File.AppendText(fileName))
{
sw.WriteLine(DateTime.Now.ToString("d") + " Aangekomen: " + DateTime.Now.ToString("t"));
}
}
}
Another option would be a list, which would have similar syntax in its usage, but you can dynamically add and remove items from the list:
List<Kind> children = new List<Kind>();
children.Add(kind1);
children.Add(kind2);
children.Add(new Kind() { Naam = "John" });
if (welkKind >= 0 && welkKind < children.Count)
{
Kind kind = children[welkKind];
}

Doesn't parse updated row from LinqToSQLDataClass to Database LINQ C# WPF

I'm building an Edit/Update system in my program using Linq in C# WPF.
My problem is that my code does submit to the LinqToSQLDatacontex but doesn't parse it through to the actual Database.
The result of that is that the datarow is updated in Runtime but in fact isn't updated in the actual Database.
this is the code I use for Updating my rows.
private void dgUsers_MouseUp(object sender, MouseButtonEventArgs e)
{
try
{
item = dgUsers.SelectedItem;
this.name = (dgUsers.SelectedCells[0].Column.GetCellContent(item) as TextBlock).Text;
var query =
from t in db.tbl_Users
where t.Name == name
select t;
foreach (var q in query)
{
tbMoreName.Text = q.Name;
tbMoreRights.Text = q.Rights;
tbMoreTag.Text = q.Operatortag;
checkMoreActive.IsChecked = q.Active;
tbMoreCardCode.Text = q.CardCode;
}
var table =
from q in db.tbl_UserProfiles
where q.Userprofile == tbMoreRights.Text
select q;
}
catch (Exception exc)
{
MessageBox.Show("NOPE");
}
}
private void btnSaveUser_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
switch (saveType)
{
case "Edit":
#region save Edit User
var edit =
(from t in db.tbl_Users
where t.Name == name
select t).First();
MessageBox.Show(edit.Id.ToString() + " " + edit.Name.ToString() + " " + edit.Operatortag.ToString() + " " + edit.Rights.ToString() + " " + edit.Active.ToString());
edit.Id = edit.Id;
edit.Name = tbName.Text;
edit.Operatortag = tbOperatortag.Text;
edit.Rights = cbRights.Text;
edit.Active = checkActive.IsChecked.Value;
edit.CardCode = tbCardcode.Text;
MessageBox.Show(edit.Id.ToString() + " " + edit.Name.ToString() + " " + edit.Operatortag.ToString() + " " + edit.Rights.ToString() + " " + edit.Active.ToString() + " " + edit.CardCode.ToString());
db.SubmitChanges();
#endregion
saveType = "";
break;
}
var refresh =
(from q in db.tbl_Users
select new { Name = q.Name, Rights = q.Rights, Operatortag = q.Operatortag, Active = q.Active, Cardcode = q.CardCode }).ToList();
dgUsers.ItemsSource = null;
dgUsers.ItemsSource = refresh;
MessageBox.Show(refresh[0].ToString() + " " + refresh[1].ToString() + " " + refresh[2].ToString() + " " + refresh[3].ToString() + " " + refresh[4].ToString());
}
I hope that one of you guys can help me.
Thanks in advance!!!

C# streamwriter create part of files

I am trying to create a hash text file. The code works, the problem is that once the streamwriter starts the process it won't stop until it is finished. I want to break up the output file into smaller parts. How do I stop the streamwriter and start a new file without starting the process over again?
string infile = #"ntlmchar.txt";
string hashfile = #"ntlmhash.txt"; //File that includes the hash and clear test
string charfile = #"ntlmchar.txt"; //File that only has the clear text
string oldCharFile = ""; //Temp file to apply to infile.
int cint = 1; //The number of characters in the file
string str_cint = cint.ToString(); //convert cint to string
int pint = 1; //The number of parts to the character file
string str_pint = pint.ToString(); //convert pint to string
int cm = 4; //Max number of characters
int pm = 4000; //Man number of parts
int line = 0; //line index number
while (cint <= cm)
{
if (!File.Exists(infile))
{
for (int ci =1; ci <= cm; ci++)
{
str_cint = cint.ToString();
for (int pi =1; pi <= pm; pi++)
{
str_pint = pint.ToString();
// System.Console.WriteLine("Inner for loop cint file does not exist" +cint +" pint " + pint);
// System.Console.WriteLine("Inner for loop str_cint file does not exist " + str_cint + " cint " + cint);
charfile = "ntlmchar" + str_cint + "_" + str_pint + ".txt";
pint = pi;
oldCharFile = charfile;
infile = oldCharFile;
if (File.Exists(infile)) break;
// System.Console.WriteLine("inner loop file " + infile);
}
// System.Console.WriteLine("outer for loop cint " + cint + " pint " + pint);
// System.Console.WriteLine("infile not found " + infile + " " + oldCharFile + " " + charfile + " " + hashfile);
}
// System.Console.WriteLine("No work files found " + infile + " " + oldCharFile + " " + charfile + " " + hashfile);
}
else if (File.Exists(infile))
{
// Create a file to write to.
// System.Console.WriteLine("cint at the start of else if " + cint + " str_cint " + str_cint);
infile = oldCharFile;
str_cint = cint.ToString();
// System.Console.WriteLine("cint after assign to str_cint " + cint + " str_cint " + str_cint);
pint=1;
str_pint = pint.ToString();
hashfile = "ntlmhash" + str_cint + "_" + str_pint + ".txt";
charfile = "ntlmchar" + str_cint + "_" + str_pint + ".txt";
//System.Console.WriteLine(infile + " " + oldCharFile + " " + charfile + " " + hashfile);
// System.Console.WriteLine("Infile found " + cint + " " + pint);
using (StreamWriter h = new StreamWriter(hashfile))
using (StreamWriter c = new StreamWriter(charfile))
using (StreamReader sr = new StreamReader(infile))
{
string i = "";
while ((i = sr.ReadLine()) != null)
{
foreach (string s in alpha)
{
if (line <= 2000000)
{
string j = i + s;
string str = Program.Ntlm(j);
hashfile = "ntlmhash" + str_cint + "_" + str_pint + ".txt";
charfile = "ntlmchar" + str_cint + "_" + str_pint + ".txt";
// System.Console.WriteLine("line before writing to file " + line + " in charfile " + charfile);
h.WriteLine("{0}, {1}", j, str);
c.WriteLine("{0}", j);
line++;
// System.Console.WriteLine("h file" + h + " c file" + c);
}
else
{
h.Flush();
c.Flush();
pint++;
str_pint = pint.ToString();
hashfile = "ntlmhash" + str_cint + "_" + str_pint + ".txt";
charfile = "ntlmchar" + str_cint + "_" + str_pint + ".txt";
line = 1;
System.Console.WriteLine("line after writing to part of file " + line + " in charfile " + charfile);
}
}
}

I assume you're trying to get 2,000,000 items per file? You just need to restructure a little.
Right now you have:
using (StreamWriter h = new StreamWriter(hashfile))
using (StreamWriter c = new StreamWriter(charfile))
using (StreamReader sr = new StreamReader(infile))
{
string i = "";
while ((i = sr.ReadLine()) != null)
{
You need to change your code so that you open the output files later:
using (StreamReader sr = new StreamReader(infile))
{
StreamWriter h = null;
StreamWriter c = null;
try
{
h = new StreamWriter(...);
c = new StreamWriter(...);
string i = "";
while ((i = sr.ReadLine()) != null)
{
// output line here
// and increment line counter.
++line;
if (line > 2000000)
{
// Close the output files and open new ones
h.Close();
c.Close();
h = new StreamWriter(...);
c = new StreamWriter(...);
line = 1;
}
}
}
finally
{
if (h != null) h.Close();
if (c != null) c.Close();
}
}
