I have this code...
I am using visual c# 2005 beta. I have created the textbox and I want to put the varible health in the textbox so it draws the variable health. But I get an error when I put textBox_health.Text = health; at that spot. Where should I put it?Code:namespace Drug_Wars
{
partial class Form1 : Form
{
public Form1()
{
InitializeComponent();
int health = 100;
}
textBox_health.Text = health;
}
}
First, your "health" has to be a class scope variable. Right now, it's scope is the constructor. Outside the constructor, no "health" exists.
If you want an event to occur whenever "health" is changed ( for example putting the new value in the textbox ) a property would be fine. The set method could set the textbox ( for simplicity ) or call an OnHealthChanged Event. But I guess that's a bit much, so as step one, declare "health" in the scope of your form like this
and move your textbox setting line into a function. A class can never have a line that is not a variable declaration outside of a function.Code:namespace Drug_Wars
{
partial class Form1 : Form
{
private int health = 100;
public Form1()
{
InitializeComponent();
textBox_health.Text = health.ToString();
}
}
}
ok I fixed the varible. But the onHealthChanged event didn't work.
maybe I did I somthing wrong cause I am new to c# but that doesn't work.Code:private void onHealthChanged()
{
textBox2.Text = health.ToString();
}
Well, you will have to implement the event yourself. Start by creating a property for Health.
ok well umm....
creating a property huh?
like I said I am new so umm.... how do you do that?
while I am on this topic, I don't want to start a new topic, I have anouther question.
Why can't any of my friends (running windows xp and some sp and other sp2) nto able to run my programs I made with visual c#. They get an error somtimes saying missing a dll or a memory error or somthing but there computer works fine.
Is it because I have .net framework 2.0 beta 1 and not 1.0 installed?
Programs compiled with Visual C# 2005 Beta depends on .NET Framework 2.0 beta. Your friends will need to install it inorder to run the programs you compiled.Quote:

dang it! This is sooooooo not cool.
Well it appears some stuff don't even work with visual c# 2005 beta.
So what do you recomend that uses 1.0 framework. I mean is there anouther free version of vusual C# that uses framework 1.0?
www.icsharpcode.net/OpenSource/SD/ uses the .NET Framework 1.1 runtime (the most common version). It's open source, you might give it a try.
And there are no free versions of Visual C#, the one you have is only free at the moment because it's beta.
My recommendation would be to get a book about C# that will teach you why what you have done isn't working. Or you might like to read this:
http://www.softsteel.co.uk/tutorials/cSharp/cIndex.html
maybe c# isn't for me then. Cause I hate sharp devolpe. I just can't stand it. I fallowed your link and tried it again but nope, I just don't like it.
I am guessing you eithe cna't get visual c# 2003 or it costs money then.
EDIT: And I do have a book on c#.
A couple of thousand dollars I think. Do a search for Visual Studio 2003 60 Day Trial though, depending on where you live they may be able to post you a free trial pack.
Don't hate C# because you don't like the IDE's, it is a very good language and if you take the time to learn it you will come to love it. And don't expect to understand it all in a few days either - I work with people who have been using it for the past two years and are still learning new things. Programmers wouldn't get paid so much if anyone could pick up Visual Studio and write MS Word in 2 days.
lol it ins't because I don't know c#. And I do love the lang.
Just that sharp devlope gives me an error I didn't create, and I just don't like it. Maybe if the product worked right I would like it, but right now I am not sure what to do.
I found visual c# 2003 standard for abnout 80 dallors on amazon, but does 2003 use .net 1.1? or 1.0?
I've got a copy that appears to use 1.1, but I imagine it's quite updatable anyway, especially between minor version numbers.Quote:

Post the error and we will see.Quote:

I apologize, based on the code in the original post I assumed you were still in the early leaning stages. No offence was meant.Quote:

Just because your friends don't have 2.0 doesn't mean you should be using 1.1... make them install 2.0! It's only a 20mb download and you can burn it to CD for them. They are quite able to have both the 1.1 and 2.0 beta frameworks installed, so I see no reason for you to not use the 2.0 beta (unless your application is commercial, but if it's called Drug Wars I don't expect it would be).

I just love the way that visual C3 2005 works. It is just so perfect and I am afraid that 2003 would not be the same at all.
I like the code completion where you type a a letter (or so) and it lists all of the functions and classes and things like that.
And as you said, It apears to use 1.1. And the update thing doesn't sound to good.
If only they alowed you to choose between 1.1 and 2.0...
Well I am still deciding so I won't post no errors yet cause I want to decide this first.
Thank you all for all of the help you gave me and are still giving.
You helped me alot!
