I want the Filewatcher to watch the path of the FileBrowseBox, but with the FileBrowseBox you have to choose a file. How do i watch the path the file is in?
Is it possible that both copy1 and cut1 are true?
In your code you set the variables to true, regardless the state of the checkboxes.
Try to change the CheckedChanged-methods to
private void CopyButton_CheckedChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
if (chkCopy.Checked)
{
copy1 = true;
cut1 = false;
// ToDo: Uncheck checkbox cut1
}
else
{
copy1 = false;
{
}
private void Cut_CheckedChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
if (chkCut.Checked)
{
cut1 = true;
copy1 = false;
// ToDo: Uncheck checkbox copy1
}
else
{
cut1 = false;
{
}
Maybe it's more interesting to use radiobuttons instead of checkboxes?
When in the same group there can be only one checked while in your case both checkboxes can be checked.
Which make no sense since you can only copy or cut, not both at the same time.

At the top i init with new instance both filelist and dic variables.
Then when starting watching i get all the files . and add them to the filelist and to the dic.
If for example the path is C:\ then filelist will contain 6 items :
filelist = Directory.GetFiles(textBox_path.Text, "*.*").ToList();
foreach (var item in filelist)
{
FileInfo info = new FileInfo(item);
dic.Add(item, info.Length);
}
Then in the event Watcher_Changes at this line :
var info = new FileInfo(e.FullPath);
There is exception the file not found and i see when using a breakpoint a long file temp type with tmp extension.
Then on other files it's throwing exceptions key was not present and then if i will start watching over again it will throw exceptions that the key is the same and already exist.
Other problem is now the button Button_doit in the event Button_doit_Click is not changing to stop and stay on start all the time.

I am currently working on a file copying facility that allows me to select a source and a destination for the folders to be copied from and to. A progress bar is displayed after the user clicks on Copy.
The only issue is that All of my functions reside in one file which is form1.cs (as follows)
namespace CopyFacility
{
public partial class Form1 : Form
{
BackgroundWorker background = new BackgroundWorker();
FolderBrowserDialog folderBrowser = new FolderBrowserDialog();
OpenFileDialog openFile = new OpenFileDialog();
public Form1()
{
InitializeComponent();
background.WorkerSupportsCancellation = true;
background.WorkerReportsProgress = true;
background.DoWork += Background_DoWork;
background.RunWorkerCompleted += Background_RunWorkerCompleted;
background.ProgressChanged += Background_ProgressChanged;
}
string inputFile = null;
string outputFile = null;
private void CopyFile(string source, string destination, DoWorkEventArgs e)
{
FileStream fsOut = new FileStream(destination, FileMode.Create);
FileStream fsIn = new FileStream(source, FileMode.Open);
byte[] buffer = new byte[1048756];
int readBytes;
while((readBytes = fsIn.Read(buffer,0,buffer.Length)) > 0)
{
if(background.CancellationPending)
{
e.Cancel = true;
background.ReportProgress(0);
fsIn.Close();
fsOut.Close();
return;
}
else
{
fsOut.Write(buffer, 0, readBytes);
background.ReportProgress((int) (fsIn.Position * 100 / fsIn.Length));
}
fsOut.Write(buffer, 0, readBytes);
background.ReportProgress((int)(fsIn.Position * 100 / fsIn.Length));
}
fsIn.Close();
fsOut.Close();
}
private void Background_ProgressChanged(object sender, ProgressChangedEventArgs e)
{
fileProgressBar.Value = e.ProgressPercentage;
}
private void Background_RunWorkerCompleted(object sender, RunWorkerCompletedEventArgs e)
{

{
fileProgressBar.Visible = true;
lblMessage.Visible = true;

}
else
{

lblMessage.Text = "The process has been completed";
}
}

}

}

{

{

}
}
}
}
I was wondering how I could go about putting the function "CopyFile" into it's own class that can be called whenever the button is clicked?
When I try creating a new class method and inserting the functions related to the copying function into a new class "CopyFunction.cs" , I get a following error from the code "InitializingComponent();" as follows
public CopyPresenter(BackgroundWorker background, FolderBrowserDialog folderBrwoser, OpenFileDialog openFile)
{
InitializeComponent();
background.WorkerSupportsCancellation = true;
background.WorkerReportsProgress = true;
background.DoWork += Background_DoWork;
background.RunWorkerCompleted += Background_RunWorkerCompleted;
background.ProgressChanged += Background_ProgressChanged;
}
The error says that the "InitializeComponent" doesn't exist in the current context.
I am making an application that has some options in drop-down menus that get populated from the App.Config file. I was testing a reset function when the program stopped doing the reset. My code for Form1 is below:
public Form1()
{
InitializeComponent();
InitializeDropDownMenu();
}
private void InitializeDropDownMenu()
{
//Populate all the menus from app.config
foreach (string s in Properties.Settings.Default.Box1Contents)
{
comboBox1.Items.Add(s);
}
foreach (string s in Properties.Settings.Default.Box2Contents)
{
comboBox2.Items.Add(s);
}
foreach (string s in Properties.Settings.Default.Box3Contents)
{
comboBox3.Items.Add(s);
}
//Controls for drop down menus
this.Controls.Add(comboBox1);
comboBox1.SelectedIndexChanged +=
new System.EventHandler(comboBox1_SelectedIndexChanged);
this.Controls.Add(comboBox2);
comboBox2.SelectedIndexChanged +=
new System.EventHandler(comboBox2_SelectedIndexChanged);
this.Controls.Add(comboBox3);
comboBox3.SelectedIndexChanged +=
new System.EventHandler(comboBox3_SelectedIndexChanged);
//Begin Program with all dDMenus enabled.
comboBox1.Enabled = true;
comboBox2.Enabled = true;
comboBox3.Enabled = true;
}
private void comboBox1_SelectedIndexChanged(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
DialogResult result = MessageBox.Show(
"Change Viewer to: \r\n" + comboBox1.Text + "\r\n\r\n" + "Confirm?",
"Menu",
MessageBoxButtons.YesNo,
MessageBoxIcon.Information);
if (result == DialogResult.Yes)
{
label3.Text = comboBox1.SelectedText;
}
else if( result == DialogResult.No)
{
comboBox1.ResetText();
}
}
private void comboBox2_SelectedIndexChanged(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
DialogResult result = MessageBox.Show(
"Change Viewer to: \r\n" + comboBox2.Text + "\r\n\r\n" + "Confirm?",
"Menu",
MessageBoxButtons.YesNo,
MessageBoxIcon.Information);
if (result == DialogResult.Yes)
{
label3.Text = comboBox2.SelectedText;
}
else if (result == DialogResult.No)
{
comboBox2.ResetText();
}
}
private void comboBox3_SelectedIndexChanged(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
DialogResult result = MessageBox.Show(
"Change Viewer to: \r\n" + comboBox3.Text + "\r\n\r\n" + "Confirm?",
"Menu",
MessageBoxButtons.YesNo,
MessageBoxIcon.Information);
if (result == DialogResult.Yes)
{
label3.Text = comboBox3.SelectedText;
}
else if (result == DialogResult.No)
{
comboBox3.ResetText();
}
}
private void ResetApp()
{
comboBox1.ResetText();
comboBox2.ResetText();
comboBox3.ResetText();
}
private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
ResetApp();
label3.Text = "ResetApp Ran";
}
Any ideas as to why label3 is always set to null, and why when reset is clicked the ComboBoxes aren't being reset to blanks anymore?
Thank you for your help,
-Arthur
EDIT* I will use Items.Clear(); and then just call InitializeDropDownMenu() in the reset function. Should work for my intended use. Thank you all.
I think the problem is in use of SelectedText. The SelectedTextproperty "Gets or sets the text that is selected in the editable portion of a System.Windows.Forms.ComboBox".
Instead try to use the SelectedItem property.
label1.Text = comboBox1.SelectedItem.ToString();

You are targeting WinForm application and you are trying to use threading from WPF.
System.Windows.Threading Namespace
Contains types to support the Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF)
threading system
You should use: System.Threading Namespace. You may also see Threading in Windows Forms by Jon Skeet
I have been working on a manager application for a Minecraft server, when I run my program, the console shows and disappears, if I run it manually, it runs without and problems.
Batch file code:
java -Xmx1024M -jar craftbukkit-1.7.2-R0.3.jar -o false
My full code (MessageBoxes are in Polish, becouse im from Poland, but later i will add support for other languages):
using System;
using System.IO;
using System.Windows.Forms;
using System.Diagnostics;
namespace WindowsFormsApplication1
{
public partial class Form1 : Form
{
public Form1()
{
InitializeComponent();
}
public Process server;
private Boolean runServer()
{
if (!File.Exists(textBox2.Text))
{
MessageBox.Show("Brak określonej ścieżki dostępu! (" + textBox2.Text + ")", "Błąd", MessageBoxButtons.OK, MessageBoxIcon.Error);
return false;
}
Process process = new Process
{
StartInfo =
{
FileName = textBox2.Text,
//Arguments = textBox3.Text,
UseShellExecute = false,
RedirectStandardOutput = true,
CreateNoWindow = false,
}
};
process.OutputDataReceived += new DataReceivedEventHandler(server_outputDataReceived);
process.ErrorDataReceived += new DataReceivedEventHandler(server_outputDataReceived);
server = process;
if (process.Start())
return true;

MessageBox.Show("Nie można włączyć serwera!", "Błąd", MessageBoxButtons.OK, MessageBoxIcon.Error);
return false;

private String ReadFile(String filename, int line)
{
StreamReader reader = new StreamReader(filename);
for (int i = 0; i < line; i++)
{
reader.ReadLine();
}
return reader.ReadLine();
}
private void ReloadOPs()

return;
}
String line = ReadFile(textBox1.Text, 0);
comboBox1.Items.Clear();
for (int i = 1; i < File.ReadAllLines(textBox1.Text).Length; i++)
{
if (!String.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(ReadFile(textBox1.Text, i)))
{
comboBox1.Items.Add(line);
line = ReadFile(textBox1.Text, i);

}
// Run server button (Menu)
private void button5_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
if (!runServer())
return;
server.BeginOutputReadLine();
button6.Enabled = true;

// Stop server button (Menu)
private void button6_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{

server.Kill();
button6.Enabled = false;
}
private void addConsoleMessage(String message, Boolean refresh)
{
listBox1.Items.Add(message);
if (refresh)
listBox1.Refresh();
}
}
}
My problem is that program crashes becouse InvaildOperationException was unhandled (listBox1.Items.Add(message) in addConsoleMessage).
External error information: Invalid operation between threads: the control 'listBox1' is accessed from a thread other than the thread it was created.
You cannot update UI form background thread. Try this
WPF
private void server_outputDataReceived(object sender, DataReceivedEventArgs e)
{
Dispatcher.CurrentDispatcher.Invoke(DispatcherPriority.Normal, () =>
{
addConsoleMessage(e.Data.ToString(), true);
});
}
Update
In WinForms the Invoke/BeginInvoke methods are directly on the control objects as you can see from the docs of System.Windows.Forms.Control. So you'd have listBox1.BeginInvoke(...) for example.
