(gravel driveway - about to get it paved...).
That didn't take long.
I like the brick-work edging too.

Instead of paving, you should use yellow paver stones.

Re: Post Race!
Ever spent weeks on something that turns out to be a remarkably stupid oversight on your part?
I've been using the Reactive Extensions for .NET (Rx) a lot lately. It's a framework that works sort of like "What if instead of events, we had IEnumerables that added an item every time the event was raised?" I'm using it because I'm doing a lot of tasks that involve gathering data coming in at different rates, merging it, and processing it on a myriad of threads.
So I have this guy right here I wanted to test:
Code:
_dataSource.Buffer(TimeSpan.FromSeconds(10))
.ObserveOn(DefaultScheduler.Instance)
.Subscribe(ProcessBatch)
Items come in at a high rate, Buffer() collects all of them into a List for 10 seconds, then pushes that batch to my ProcessBatch method, and DefaultScheduler means ProcessBatch() is getting called on a worker thread. Whew.
I don't want my tests to take 10 seconds per test, so I was going to cheat. Things that work with time can take an IScheduler. There is a TestScheduler that lets you control the clock. So with a slight change, "10 seconds" passes when I say it does:
Code:
dataSource.Buffer(TimeSpan.FromSeconds(10), scheduler)
...
The way to test it looks something like:
Code:
Dim scheduler = New TestScheduler()
_dataSource = scheduler.CreateHotObservable(
OnNext(10, <data>),
OnNext(20, <data>),
...)
' ...set up code so it uses that data source and the scheduler.
' Advance by 10 seconds
scheduler.AdvanceBy(10000)
' Test side effects of ProcessBatch()
I've revisited this test in my free time for a few weeks. Every time I tried it, the test failed with no data. I was stumped.
It was only this week I got the bright idea to comment out the Buffer() call to see if I got data at all. And I replaced the "test" observable with Observable.Interval, which behaves like a timer. So I set it to have a 1s period and expected 10 data points.
I got 0 data points. What?
I hacked at it for 10 minutes until, out of anger, I changed AdvanceBy() to use "999999999" instead of 10000. I got some results. What?
Then it hit me. The name of the parameter that takes a time offset is 'ticks'. Ticks are NOT milliseconds. Whoops.
This answer is wrong. You should be using TableAdapter and Dictionaries instead.

Ugh, just had a windscreen repair. It was supposed to take 1 hour, turned into 3. And the light sensor's now not working. Total waste of an afternoon.

I'd have to say it's pretty obvious.
It's been 26 days since your last post (Aug 31)
If you posted more frequently, no weeds.

wind-SHIELD ??????
In what way is it like a shield, which tended to be solidly made of metal and used to deflect lethal blows with a Sword !
wind-SCREEN is a waaaaay better word.

That seems like a stretch. Shields, even the ones you are talking about, were rarely made of metal. Wood, bull hide (as opposed to the other bull product we are more familiar with), and even perhaps an odd cloth laminate similar to fiberglass, was probably more common overall. Also, shields are commonly used to deflect a whole lot more than swords. They're for blocking....pretty nearly anything, depending on the shield.
So, I'd say that windshield is actually the more correct word.

My point is they were never, ever made of glass. Literally No-one wants a glass shield !!!

Re: Post Race!
anybody could help me please? sorry for posting here. I'm really registered but I can't post a new thread on this site. So please allow me to post my problem. Thanks for advance ADMIN.
Here's my Problem:
Private Sub BackgroundWorker1_DoWork(sender As Object, e As System.ComponentModel.DoWorkEventArgs) Handles BackgroundWorker1.DoWork
AOB.BytesToScan = {txtboxAOB.Text}
Dim Address As IntPtr = AOB.AobScan(txtboxProcess.Text)
TextBox3.Text = Address.ToString()
End Sub
It's not working when I'm trying to use a text box as the value of my array of bytes to be scanned.
