Regular Expressions and .NET
(Saturday, September 04, 2004)
Found the following interesting discussion in the Newsgroups:
Regular Expressions
by:Anonymous
| I'm having trouble creating a regular expression to parse bits of data from a string and was hoping someone could lead me in the right direction. Consider the following string:
423456 Victor Frankenstein, M.D. 04/04/2004
I want to construct a new string to look like this:
04/04/2004-423456-Frankenstein
My biggest problem is getting the last name, this is because there may or may not be something between the first and last name (ie. middle name, middle initial(with or without a period), and even multiple names).
If anyone has any ideas, I would really welcome your insight.
Thanks,
Mark

| | | Mark,
I don't have a specific pattern to solve your problem.
I would start at the ends and work toward the middle. Parsing names always seems to be problematic, what about names like Cher and Prince?
Can you safely use the last name before the date, except if there is a degree?
I find both of the following sites invaluable when working with regular expressions.
A tutorial & reference on using regular expressions:
http://www.regular-expressions.info/
The MSDN's documentation on regular expressions:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/cpgenref/html/cpconRegularExpressionsLanguageElements.asp
Hope this helps

| | | Thanks for your reply.
To be more specific. There will always be a first and last name as well as the possibility of middle names or initials, and there will always be some sort of credential (ie, M.D.). There will always be a comma after the last name and there will always be a date after the credentials.
Thanks again,
Mark

| | | Mark,
There is your key!
There will always be a comma after the last name, so your last name is a name followed by a comma. Also my suggesting of starting at the ends, you know its the last name as it is the name the furthest to the right...
Your "middle names" are simply zero or more names.
Thinking about it you may not even care about the comma specifically on the last name, after yes, part of no.
Your pattern will need something like (not really reg ex):
number
first name
middle name*
last name
credential
date
Where the above is the pattern to match each of those sections of your input string, I would probably use named groups (group name) to be able to pull each section out of the match object. Between each section you can include any delimiters that may be expected such as white space, commas & what have you... (the comma after the last name). This helps convince the parser that the last name is the last name & not a trailing middle name...
Hope this helps

Locating objects???
by:Anonymous
| TO ALL:
Remember in VB 6.0 we could do slight location adjustments using our arrow keys in the keyboard. How come you can’t do that in VB.NET; do you seriously have to specify pixel values in the location property or is there an option to enable us to use the arrow keys when locating objects.
Thanks in advance.

MS Access Interop

| I am using access interop (object 10.0) in my application. It works fine on my machine but when I test it on some machine which has an old version of access then it fails. This is how I am declareing my variable.
Dim oAccess As Access.Application
How do I resolve the issue so that it doesn't matter if it is old or new access it works?
Any idea?
Thanks

by:t.egginger@removethis-gmx.net
| | | Hello,
i guess you can not solve this via interop. (as far as i know)
either you use reflection and create the access object at runtime, or you simply write your own com-wrapper class solving this for you!

Can someone tell me how, using the richtextbox's Lines\String[]Array property, I can add text, line after individual line, at run time, to a richtextbox.
I have search all of msdn and the KB and there is no example, good explanation of using the Lines\String[]Array property
I am hoping to use a variables to hold the information for each line.
Thanks

| | | I don't really understand what you want to do, but I used that once in a
project, although I used a 'normal' Textbox and not a RichTextBox.
You can just access it like this: MyTextBox.Lines(0)
Although, strange thing is: if you use it like this, the performance is really bad!! You better put the text of your textbox into a string, than do all the changes to your string, and afterwurths copy the strign back to your
TextBox. Like this:
Dim strT As String()
'store the textbox in a string()
strT = txtText.Lines
I hope this helps? Otherwise try to explain your question a little more explicit.

You will have to raise the events your self when the textchanges.
Here is a simple example.
Public Class UserControl1
Inherits System.Windows.Forms.UserControl
#Region " Windows Form Designer generated code "
Public Shadows Event TextChanged(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As
EventArgs)
Public Shadows Property Text() As String
Get
Return TextBox1.Text
End Get
Set(ByVal Value As String)
TextBox1.Text = Value
End Set
End Property
Private Sub TextBox1_TextChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As
System.EventArgs) Handles TextBox1.TextChanged
RaiseEvent TextChanged(Me, e)
End Sub
End Class

Direct Sound

| I want to use a trackbar to show progress of a sound file currently being played. So what I thought I would do is this:
Have the trackbar's maximum value equal 1. On my timer's tick event, I would have the trackbar's value equal the current play position divided by the lenght of the buffer. I can not find a way to get the lenght of a buffer, so if someone could either tell me a better way to do it, or how to get the lenght of a buffer, please tell me. Thank you.

Publisher: Microsoft Press; 1 edition (July 31, 2002)
ISBN: 0735617244 | All Editions
Book Description
Visual C++ has several capabilities that Visual C# does not have, including better access to unmanaged code, the ability to mix managed and unmanaged code in the same source file, direct access to unmanaged data, and other features. Because developers who use C# may want to implement more C++ in their Microsoft .NET applications, this book thoroughly covers the Visual C++ managed extensions, plus how to write .NET libraries and applications. Readers learn the different programming rules for managed extensions, along with the features that are new to Visual C++ and other .NET-compatible languages.

.NET and COM: The Complete Interoperability Guide
.NET and COM: The Complete Interoperability Guide
by Adam Nathan
Paperback: 1608 pages ; Dimensions (in inches): 2.26 x 9.18 x 7.38
Publisher: Sams; 1st edition (January 31, 2002)
ISBN: 067232170X
From the Back Cover
The focus of the book is on COM Interoperability (since it's a much larger subject), and the heart of the discussion is broken down into four parts:
* Using COM Components Within the .NET Framework
* Using .NET Framework Components from COM
* Designing Good .NET Framework Components for COM Clients
* Designing Good COM Components for .NET Framework Clients
The scope of the book is just about everything related to using "unmanaged code" in the .NET Framework. Technologies built on top of COM Interoperability are also covered-Interoperability of Windows Forms Controls and ActiveX controls, Interoperability with COM+, and Interoperability with Distributed COM (DCOM). Although Platform Invocation Services is a separate technology from COM Interoperability, there are many areas of overlap, so including in the book is a natural fit. All of these technologies are a core part of the Common Language Runtime and .NET Framework, and will likely be used not only as the path of migration for existing software projects, but for brand new software development for the next several years.

.NET and COM: The Complete Interoperability Guide
.NET and COM: The Complete Interoperability Guide
by Adam Nathan
Paperback: 1608 pages ; Dimensions (in inches): 2.26 x 9.18 x 7.38
Publisher: Sams; 1st edition (January 31, 2002)
ISBN: 067232170X
From the Back Cover
The focus of the book is on COM Interoperability (since it's a much larger subject), and the heart of the discussion is broken down into four parts:
* Using COM Components Within the .NET Framework
* Using .NET Framework Components from COM
* Designing Good .NET Framework Components for COM Clients
* Designing Good COM Components for .NET Framework Clients
The scope of the book is just about everything related to using "unmanaged code" in the .NET Framework. Technologies built on top of COM Interoperability are also covered-Interoperability of Windows Forms Controls and ActiveX controls, Interoperability with COM+, and Interoperability with Distributed COM (DCOM). Although Platform Invocation Services is a separate technology from COM Interoperability, there are many areas of overlap, so including in the book is a natural fit. All of these technologies are a core part of the Common Language Runtime and .NET Framework, and will likely be used not only as the path of migration for existing software projects, but for brand new software development for the next several years.

Paperback: 384 pages ; Dimensions (in inches): 1.21 x 9.43 x 7.25
Publisher: O'Reilly; 1 edition (September 1, 2001)
ISBN: 0596001037
Book Description
This book is for experienced Microsoft COM developers who want to advance to building component-based applications with the COM+ services available with Windows 2000. Assuming familiarity with classic COM, it focuses on the added services of COM+, including support for transactions, queued components, events, concurrency management, and security. COM and .NET Component Services is the first book to stress the importance of learning to use COM+ services for both .NET and COM component-based applications. Since most companies have considerable investment in existing code base and development skills, COM+ can serve as a migration path for companies and developers. Companies can start (or continue) their projects in COM, using COM+ as a supporting platform for component services, and then when the time comes to move to .NET, they can start plugging .NET components seamlessly into the same architecture.by Juval Löwy, John Osborn

The development of the .NET Framework, with the associated release of the C# programming language, is set to stimulate a new wave of application development. This book aims to provide the information needed to develop powerful data-centric applications using C#. To do this we'll be extensively covering the exciting new features of ADO.NET that deliver efficient data access and manipulation, and the XML handling capabilities of the .NET Framework. Accepting that data-centric applications will utilize a variety of sources and inputs, we'll also look at additional topics such as using ADO with C#, Messaging Services, and utililizing the Registry and Active Directory. This information is put into context within a number of case studies including one showing how to migrate an application from Visual Basic 6 to C#.
This book has been written with the Beta 2, feature complete version of the .NET Framework in mind, with, where possible, information on running code samples on Release Candidate 1.
