Alittle beta testing help please

[John]

While I do the write up on the partly completed program can you guys have a play with it and see if you have any problems, you will need the .net framework (http://msdn.microsoft.com/netframework/) (http://msdn.microsoft.com/netframework/%29), just post if you find a niggle.

I am aware of when removing a product from order it doesnt replenish the stock amount.

thanks in advance

p.s No there is no virus in this.

edit: Thanks ixion, now its a 0.0.2 beta :Punk:

I'll test your little beater, what do you beat with it?

Yea you can suck my cock any time you sexy beast :lol:

(I preferr woman though...)

Click update with nothing entered gives an unhandled exception (value canot be null, parameter item). You need to test that the item feld contains a valid value and raise an exception if it dowhen the button is clicke doesn't

[Waylander]

I thought you said there was no virus in it?


Just look what it did to me!!! I've been made a clone!!!

[Ixion]

Hm. I assumed that the file products.txt would be an ascii file containing product details? But it isn't this is what it contains

System.Collections.ArrayList _items_size_version

(the squares are just cos Notepad doesn't like displaying binary data). Is this what you expected ?

How is the program supposed to work. Entering product data and clicking add doesn't add a new item as I expected. Is there suposed to be a help system? Or a menu system ?

On a production system you'd want to make the text boxes for price and quantity smaller and ensure that only reasonable vlaues, correctly formatted can be entered

I actually never thought of that

maybe I should run myself as a nulled exception :(

(thanks btw)

Sorry no its just a silly assignment for class - we arent allowed to go to nuts with it :(

Ah, we hadto use flat files so I basicly decided to serialize the data into the file to maintain the data structure 3dimensional arrays, would you like me to post the (very very messy code so you can have a gander?)

as for formatting if you try to enter a string in an integer box it just says check values we arent (:|) allowed to use proper error handling yet so yea, I could make sub functions for it but its such a little pointless program it seems pointless, I'm used to working with C# C+ PEARL PHP SQL etc So normally I write large large re: 10's of thousands of lines of code and this is like a little 300word essay so I havent really tried so its my fault that its so shit, but would it scare you that its the best in the class?

[John]

Anyway thanks for your help It seems good enough for now just to get my marks :drinkup:

cheers.

[Ixion]

.., but would it scare you that its the best in the class?

Very scarey!.

I figured out the products.txt file, and was able to create an "order" for something. But I couldn't get the Process button to enable ? Should it.

I can break it very easily, but that's understandable if there is no error trapping. I do this every day (almost), and if it can be broken I'll break it. But for a little example proggy like this it's not really sensible to test to commercial standards.

[John]

Yea, I'm now moving to third year level now(only 4 months into course) , he said I am making the code to complicated and then found out that I can program in C# + C+ then asked why I even bothered comming here, I agree.
Ah, the products.txt is just a holder for the products that you add to the inventory the programs pathetic I hate it, I will let you have a play with some more of my stuff when I get it done..

Here is the program outline (proccess doesnt work btw I disabled it)

On another note, I am making a MSN/IRC type messenger system and was wondering if anyone would be interested in beta testing that - It is a basic VB server type application and would be for Kiwibiker (something for my portfolio)

pity I didn't know about your abilities before and joined earlier then you could have "helped" me with my blasted compsci assignments...

Oh well, if I fail again then I might ask you... :whistle:

What are you doing work for, when you have a bike - abet a badly treated one ;)

[bugjuice]

found a nasty bug...




it's not mac friendly

AHA! LOLERIFIC!

awesome

actually I would bother testing it but it seems you have many a beta tester already. GL!

Thats part of the problem at the moment. I have to try and study and she's sitting downstairs all lonely. I simply must comfort her. :whistle:

She's looking much better now, I must actually take some new pics. More nuts and bolts holding things together. :niceone:

Yea it is a homophobic application :)

Awsome - glad its erm, comming together for you :P

[Gremlin]

yep, she got her first wof today from Mt Eden, and when I specifically asked the mech if there were any problems - Are you sure etc. he says, nope, no problems.

When I have some free time (ie don't need the bike - and I have no idea when that will be) I must get them to give her a full service...

And I just got the centre stand back after being re-welded, so that has to go back on. Last piece of the puzzle. Although I have now figured out that perhaps twin pipes ain't so cool... it is a real b*stard getting the bolts back in, the pipes have to be basically taken off to do it... :oi-grr:

From the MINUTE I unzipped and ran your application, windows creates an error every few minutes and has to close. Is anyone else getting this (assuming you had enough time to make it to this thread before getting the error)???? :mad: :mad:

EDIT, oh your application never even ran, it caused an error and closed....
Please advise

Do you ave the .Net Framework installed ?

[StoneChucker]

Do you ave the .Net Framework installed ?
No. And I'm rather annoyed actually, I've just installed everything onto the new computer. Hope it goes away. I've found it doesn't just do it in Internet Explorer, but in other Apps too. Was using my photo program and it cuts out just as often. :mad: :whocares:

Have you being playing with the BIOS?
Might pay to re-install sounds like a corrupt install - make sure your windows disk isnt foobar'd.

also viruses etc? That blaster worm did exactly that try this (http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=AD724AE0-E72D-4F54-9AB3-75B8EB148356&displaylang=en)

No, did nothing to BIOS. Windows was running the best I've ever had it. But yes, I strongly suspect a virus.............

[John]

Hey all just another small assignment - this is more of a realase compared to the last one was just abit of crap, comments / hate / errors send them my way :niceone:

note: you need .net 1.1:oi-grr:
