    ...ok I didn't see that, but in my defense; in what world does Alt+S serve as a shortcut to confirm an action such as posting a reply? TAB order is the universally accepted way to traverse controls....

    Re: New Forum Update

    So, before I start, I want you guys to know that I (we) appreciate your hard work and I don't mean to crap on it here, but as you know, people get vocal about things they dislike far more often than...

    Re: Choose class type without switch

    You're not going to be able to do it without using a lot of reflection, though it is possible. Here's an overview of one approach: ...

    And on a side note, you cannot "dispose a class", but I get what you were trying to say.

    Re: While/For/Foreach Speed Test!

    I have still yet to see a valid test case.

    1. What are your compiler options?
    2. Show us your real algorithm.

    O(n^2) simply means that the worst case time needed to execute the algorithm is...

    Re: While/For/Foreach Speed Test!

    The algorithm is slow because it has O(n^2) complexity in time, not because you used a for loop instead of a foreach. Again, testing an empty loop makes no sense since it will be optimized away. If...

    Re: While/For/Foreach Speed Test!

    When discussing performance....

    1. Show your compiler options or it didn't happen.
    2. The first time your code runs it needs to be compiled by the JIT compiler, so you need to run a large number...

    Just a nitpick because I see this so often. This method:



    bool CheckHealth(int health)
    {
    bool alive;
    if (health > 0)
    alive = true;

    Did you try any of .NET thread-safe collection classes before implementing your own?

    But it won't be cleaned up by the GC because there is a valid reference to the object in the list. There is no other way; you would have to manually manage the list of objects (and you're probably...

    Re: Find all instances of type

    The problem here would be stale references. You would need to make sure that objcts which are no longer needed are cleared from the list or they will *never* be GC'd.

    Also, you can't use 'ref' in...

    Useless posts are, well, useless. Instead of editing out relevant information, leave the question and post the answer so that you may help people in the future. This is a forum after all.

    Re: problem with timer help pls

    I have to ask why you are using a timer here in the first place.

    A Windows.Forms.Timer acts as an asynchronous callback mechanism. The Tick callback is in fact executed on the main (UI) thread,...

    Re: Variable Declaration Question

    No, this is the wrong way to write software.

    The decision to declare a variable at a given scope is one of function, not performance. When a variable can be local to a function, it should be. ...

    Re: spell checker throwing exception

    Don't create a new instance of your application object. Use the same one which generated the dictionary.
  22. Re: Random array element gets value changed with variable

    This is unnecessary:


    Item tmpItem = new Item();
    tmpItem = iMasterList[tmpR];

    You create a new object and immediately throw it away. Simply use


    Item tmpItem = iMasterList[tmpR];

    Re: Different option for Thread.Sleep?

    No, it doesn't. It suspends the thread it was called on, no others. You need to remove that Sleep. However, if your program simply exits if you remove the sleep.... then I am perplexed as to why...
  24. Re: Random array element gets value changed with variable

  25. Re: Random array element gets value changed with variable

    Well yes, but there are strict rules as to when and how they may be used, so while the syntax is the same as C++, the semantics are not, and their use case is very narrow and rare in C#.
