c# - Simple non-fancy Windows application - should I start with WPF or WinForms? -

-

I am starting to develop a small Windows application using Microsoft Visual C # 2008 (Express Edition). I am very new to C # and .NET, so this is a newbie question. Should I start with WPF or should I stay with the old WinForms?

There are several screens in my application, many text boxes, check boxes, combo-boxes, nothing else. This application will retrieve data from many COM objects, and will communicate through standard TCP / IP sockets, which are unrelated to both UIs.

The UI is not fancy in any way (and I do not need it). However, the world is taking over the WPF. What are the considerations of choosing WPF on WinForms for my case? What is the suggested approach?

Thanks

Interestingly, how all answers target developers: A framework The technical features of acquaintance with, learning curve, a framework etc.

If this is a simple application, then none of the technical aspects really matters. You think that you have some experience programming, in that case the chosen structure really does not matter . Focus on your users instead.

Can you confirm that your users have the latest .NET runtime installed? Are they capable of setting it up / if they are not? Can your users be snatched from "old" eyes?

The way you covered your question, I think you should use WinForms. You think ("stick with Winforms") that you have experience in WinForms and you do not make any fancy demands for UI, so there is no reason for me to be in a strong learning curve of WPF.

c# - ListView onScroll event -

-
I am programming a simple C # application, and I need a Scallow event on the list view. So I inherited the original ListView class created in ListviewEx witch. I found out how to locate the scroll message from WinAPI and I modified the WndProc method. Now I have this WndProc: protected override zero WndProc (Ref message message) {base.WndProc (Ref I); If (m.msg == WM_VSCROLL) {onScroll (This, New EventArgs ()); }} But the problem is, I do not know how to know about scrolling information. This data should be in wParam, but there is a LOWORD macro ++ like in C in C # and I switch to find the criteria like SB_ below, SB_ENDSCROLL, SB_PAGEUP etc. there any way Need to change the LOWORD macro from C #? Or any other way to find the necessary parameters about scrolling? You can define the WParam constants as the following: Private const int WM_HSCROLL = 0x114; Private Constant WM_VSCROLL = 0x115; Private contact int SBHOZZ = 0; Private Consultant SB_VERT = 1; Private Con...

I am trying to create a back-end for my mobile application. I am sending the content of an image in the body of the HTTP request (output stream) as a byte array, I want to read this stream of bytes in PHP scripts and take back an image. Can anyone tell me how can I do this? Thank you. You can obtain the request body $ body = Reading from file_get_contents ('php: // input'); What you do with that data Depending on you, you can write the data in a file as you mentioned that this is image data, you can drop the data into the object can do. Another option is to use and load the image.

Linux Terminal Problem with Non-Canonical Terminal I/O app -

-
I have a small app written in C to run on Linux. Part of the app accepts user-input from keyboard , And it uses non-canonical terminal mode so that it can respond to each keystroke. The section of the code that accepts input is a simple task that is called repeatedly in the loop: char get_input () {char C = 0; Int res = reading (input_tamille, & amp; c, 1); If (RSS == 0) 0 returns; If (res == -1) {/ * snip error handling * /} return c; } It reads a letter from the terminal if there is no input within a given time limit, (c_cc [VTIME] value in the vocabulary structure), read () 0 And get_input () is called again It all works very well, I have recently discovered that if you run this app in a terminal window, and then the app Close the terminal window without ending, the app will not exit Received, but CPU intensive launches into an infinite loop, where the read () returns 0 without waiting continued. So how can I get out of the apple if it runs from the terminal win...
