  • Large Sprite Performance

    - by Iansen
    I've got a large Sprite generated using a set of vertices(x,y coordinates) and a bitmap pattern (using moveTo, lineTo, beginBitmapFill, endFill ...etc). It's about 15000 pixels wide and between 1500 - 2000 pixels high depending on the level -it's the terrain for a 2D game. My question is: what is the best way to display/move it on the stage - performance wise? Currently I'm just adding it to the stage as is...I get decent frame rate/ memory/ cpu usage but I want to optimize it for slower PCs. Any ideas? I've been reading a little about blitting but I'm not sure how to implement it in my case. Thanks.

  • Create a UPnP Control Point in Silverlight

    - by James Cadd
    I'm interested in creating a UPnP control point in Silverlight. To me that implies that I'll need to use COM interop with Microsoft's upnp.dll (and the SL application will have to be out of browser and platform specific). Is there any source code available in C# that shows how to create a control point with Microsoft's stack? If there are other options available I'd like to hear about it, from reading around the web it appears the MS stack is buggy.

  • what are the difficulties of operating system multithreading?

    - by ghedas
    I am reading a book that compares two ways of implementing threads, Middleware Threads and OS Threads. I have a question about these sentences: "A difficulty of operating system multithreading, however, is performance overhead. Since it is the operating system that is involved in switching threads, this involves system calls. These are generally more expensive than thread operations executed at the user level, which is where the transactional middleware is operating."

  • C# - Shortest path map finding

    - by nXqd
    I try to write a simple program in C#, it's like map finding . I've a picture of city / or district ( it's const ) and I'll add a database to this program to store variables, points . I use floyd to find the shortest path and I'll draw the path in the image ( by coordinates I think ) . This is the first time I write a real program in C# so how should I implement this one ;) Thanks so much for reading !

  • Stop lazy loading or skip loading a property in NHibernate? Proxy cannot be serialized through WCF

    - by HelloSam
    Consider I have a parent, child relationship class and mapping. I am using NHibernate to read the object from the database, and intended to use WCF to send the object across the wire. Goal For reading the parent object, I want to selectively, at different execution path, decide when I would want to load the child object. Because I don't want to read more than what I needed. Those partially loaded object must be able to sent through WCF. When I mean I don't load it, neither side will access such property. Problem When such partially loaded object is being sent through WCF, as those property is marked as [DataContract], it cannot be serialized as the property is lazy load proxy instead of real known type. What I want to archive, or solution that I can think of lazy=false or lazy=true doesn't work. Former will eagerly fetch all the relationships, latter will create a proxy. But I want nothing instead - a null would be the best. I don't need lazy load. I hope to get a null for those references that I don't want to fetch. A null, but not just a proxy. This will makes WCF happy, and waste less time to have a lazy-load proxy constructed. Like could I have a null proxy factory? -OR- Or making WCF ignoring those property that's a proxy instead of real. I tried the IDataContractSurrogate solution, but only parent is passed to GetObjectToSerialize, I never observe an proxy being passed through GetObjectToSerialize, leaving no chance to un-proxy it. Edit After reading the comments, more surfing on the Internet... It seems to me that DTO would shift major part of the computation to the server side. But for the project I am working on, 50% of time the client is "smarter" than the server and the server is more like a data store with validation and verification. Though I agree the server is not exactly dumb - I have to decide when to fetch the extra references already, and DTO will make this very explicit. Maybe I should just take the pain. I didn't know http://automapper.codeplex.com/ before, this motivates me a little more to take the pain. On the other hand, I found http://trentacular.com/2009/08/how-to-use-nhibernate-lazy-initializing-proxies-with-web-services-or-wcf/, which seems to be working with IDataContractSurrogate.GetObjectToSerialize.

  • Implicit Lazy Loading vs Explicit Lazy Loading

    - by Tarik
    I've been reading Entity Framework and people were crying over why there was not implicit lazy loading or something. Basically I've been searching things about Lazy Loading and now I know what it is : It is a design pattern which allows us to load objects when they are really needed. But what is the difference between Explicit Lazy Loading and Implicit Lazy Loading. Thanks in advance...

  • What to sign when signing a message with ws-security

    - by Heavy Bytes
    I am adding security to my web service and chose to sign the Timestamp and Token. While reading docs I found a lot of examples where they sign the Body of the SOAP message. My question is: what is best to sign? From what I understand signing the Body could lead to performance issues if the Body is pretty large. Thanks.

  • Generating a salt in PHP

    - by qster
    What's the best way to generate a cryptographically secure 32 bytes salt in PHP, without depending on libraries seldom included in typical PHP installations? After some googling I discovered that mt_rand is not considered secure enough, but I haven't found a suggestion for a replacement. One article suggested reading from /dev/random but not only this won't work on windows; it is also very slow. I want a reasonable balance between security and speed (ie, it shouldn't take 20 seconds to generate 512 bytes, like /dev/random usually does)

  • Do you use NDepend?

    - by Karsten
    Hi I've been trying out NDepend, been reading a few blogposts about it and even heard a podcast. I think that NDepend might be a really useful tool, but I still don't see where I would use it. How do you use it? Do you use it, why? why not? I would like to hear about some down to earth real world examples.

  • Managing media using the Android MediaStore

    - by hgpc
    I manage the media (images, sound) of my app directly, reading and saving to the SD card. Should I be using the MediaStore instead? I'm not quite sure what the MediaStore is for, and the javadoc is not very helpful. When should an app use the MediaStore?

  • How can I debug VGA Out on an iPad?

    - by Elliot
    The Dock Connector to VGA Adapter (required for VGA out on the iPad) uses the Dock Connector, so I can't have my laptop connected at the same time. I remember reading something about a Remote debugger, but despite lots of searching, I'm unable to find it. How can I run the debugger to test VGA output of my iPad app?

  • Is fckeditor free for use in freelance projects?

    - by Ali
    This is more of a licencing issue than a code question. I really like the ckeditor editor and would like to use it in my freelance projects which I do for clients. However upon reading the license page it has me in a bit of a confusion. DO I have to buy licences if I intend to use this in cms websites that I build myself and hand over to clients? If so then what are my alternate options which don't cost anything?

  • Does Java need closures?

    - by Bill the Lizard
    I've been reading a lot lately about the next release of Java possibly supporting closures. I feel like I have a pretty firm grasp on what closures are, but I can't think of a solid example of how they would make an Object-Oriented language "better". Can anyone give me a specific use-case where a closure would be needed (or even preferred)?

  • NUnit.Framework.Assert.IsInstanceOfType() is obsolete

    - by Malice
    I'm currently reading the book Professional Enterprise .NET and I've noticed this warning in some of the example programs: 'NUnit.Framework.Assert.IsInstanceOfType(System.Type, object)' is obsolete Now I may have already answered my own question but, to fix this warning is it simply a case of replacing Assert.IsInstanceOfType() with Assert.IsInstanceOf()? For example this: Assert.IsInstanceOfType(typeof(ClassName), variableName); would become: Assert.IsInstanceOf(typeof(ClassName), variableName);
