I know that SelectionStart property of WinUI UWP TextBox will return the CaretIndex. But, I want to get the exact Column and Line Position of Text. In WPF, GetLineFromCharacterIndex(CaretIndex) and TextBox.Lines[LineIndex].Length could be used to find the Current Line Index and Column number respectively. How can I achieve the same in WinUI UWP Textbox ?
Try this method:
public static int GetCurrentLineIndex(TextBox textBox)
{
int caretIndex = textBox.SelectionStart;
if (caretIndex == 0)
return 0;
string[] lines = textBox.Text?.Split('\r') ?? Array.Empty<string>();
int offset = 0;
for (int i = 0; i < lines.Length; i++)
{
string line = lines[i];
offset += line.Length;
if (caretIndex <= offset)
return i;
offset++;
}
return 0;
}
It may need some slight improvement but it should give you the idea how you could determine the current line of the cursor.
You can call it from wherever you want to get the index, e.g.:
private void TextBox_TextChanged(object sender, TextChangedEventArgs e)
{
int index = GetCurrentLineIndex(sender as TextBox);
//...
}
Maybe you could do something like this:
var text = Textbox.Text;
var lines = text.Split('\r');
...
This has worked for me in the past using WPF but I have never tried UWP.
This also seems like a workaround so there might be a better, more practical, solution.
This example uses MVVM structure but you can apply the same concepts with a temp variable which stores the previous value.
<TextBox Height="600" Width="600"
Text="{Binding Text, Mode=TwoWay, UpdateSourceTrigger=PropertyChanged}"
TextWrapping="Wrap" AcceptsReturn="True"/>
Then I added this to the constructor:
this.DataContext = this;
This isnt best practice and if you were using MVVM you would set up a ViewModel and use that (I did this for testing purposes).
Then I created my properties like this:
private int _line;
public int Line
{
get { return _line; }
set
{
_line = value;
tb1.Text = value.ToString();
}
}
private int _column;
public int Column
{
get { return _column; }
set
{
_column = value;
tb2.Text = value.ToString();
}
}
private string _text;
public string Text
{
get { return _text; }
set
{
if (_text + '\r' != value)
{
Line = GetLine(_text, value);
Column = GetColumn(_text, value, Line);
}
else
{
Line++;
Column = 0;
}
_text = value;
}
}
Then added my functions:
public int GetLine(string original, string newText)
{
var oLines = GenArray(original);
var nLines = GenArray(newText);
//set this to -1 if you want 0-based indexing
int count = 0;
foreach (var line in nLines)
{
count++;
if (oLines.Length < count || line != oLines[count - 1])
{
break;
}
}
return count;
}
public int GetColumn(string original, string newText, int lineChanged)
{
var oLine = GenArray(original)[lineChanged - 1];
var nLine = GenArray(newText)[lineChanged - 1];
//set this to -1 if you want 0-based indexing
int count = 0;
foreach (var c in nLine)
{
count++;
if (oLine.Length < count || c != oLine[count - 1])
{
}
}
return count;
}
private string[] GenArray(string text)
{
string[] lines;
if (text == null)
{
lines = new string[1] { "" };
}
else if (text.Contains('\r'))
{
lines = text.Split('\r');
}
else
{
lines = new string[1] { text };
}
return lines;
}
If you don't use MVVM just do this:
public string[] TempLines { get; set; }
...
//after the calculation code has finished
TempLines = TextBox.Split('\r');
Then you can substitute TempLines for value
I want to be able to call the following function multiple times through out my code to fill different groups of 8 text boxes in my form.
Right now reference is being passed in "tbPlay" from where it is being called initially in the code.
Each time this function will be called it will be to fill different text box groups.
I am trying to think of a way of using the empty for loop to create the necessary variable names to replace tbPlay0-7 in my case statement, so it isn't only usable for one group of text boxes in my code. I am not sure it can be done.
Can anyone help.
private void convertBasetoDrawn(string numBase, string reference)
{
string baseNumber = numBase;
for (int i = 0; i < 8; i++)
{
//some code here to create variables to replace the text box names in the
//following case statement
}
switch (baseNumber)
{
case "000":
tbPlay0.Text = "000";
tbPlay0.ForeColor = Color.Red;
tbPlay1.Text = "500";
tbPlay2.Text = "050";
tbPlay3.Text = "005";
tbPlay4.Text = "550";
tbPlay5.Text = "505";
tbPlay6.Text = "055";
tbPlay7.Text = "555";
tbPlay7.ForeColor = Color.Red;
break;
}
}
Create a List<TextBox> for each group:
List<TextBox> list01 = new List<TextBox>() { tbPlay0, tbPlay1, ....};
List<TextBox> list02 = new List<TextBox>() { ..., ... , ....};
// ..
}
And pass such a group to the function:
private void convertBasetoDrawn(List<TextBox> list, string numBase, string reference)
{
string[] texts = new string[8]
{ "000", "500", "050", "005", "550", "505", "055", "555" };
for (int t = 0; t < list.Count; t++) list[t].Text = texts[t];
list[0].ForeColor = Color.Red;
list[7].ForeColor = Color.Red;
}
Assuming the texts will always look like that. If they depend on, maybe numbase you can construct them dynamically as well, as long as you know the rules.. Maybe even a simple replacement will do the job?
You didn't use reference, btw..
Now, I'm just guessig here, but maybe this is the pattern for your texts..:
string[] texts = new string[8]
{ "nnn", "dnn", "ndn", "nnd", "ddn", "dnd", "ndd", "ddd" };
for (int s = 0; s < texts.Length; s++)
texts[s] = texts[s].Replace("d", numBase).Replace("n", reference);
Now you can call it like this:
convertBasetoDrawn(list01, "0","5");
Update: For the rules as I understand them now you could do:
string newText = "";
for (int s = 0; s < texts.Length; s++)
{
newText = "";
for (int i = 0; i < 3; i++)
{
if (texts[s][i] == 'n') newText += numBase[i];
else newText += (Convert.ToByte(numBase[i].ToString()) +
Convert.ToByte(reference[0].ToString()) ).ToString("0");
}
texts[s] = newText;
}
and call it like this:
convertBasetoDrawn(list01, "001", "5");
or
convertBasetoDrawn(list02, "000", "1");
Note: no carry over here.. You'd have to define rules for that and code it yourself..
It's not clear how you plan to identify the specific group of eight. But let's assume you have somehow.
Then, if I were writing this code, I would use a UserControl to encapsulate the repeated pattern, exposing the eight TextBox controls — or rather, the properties of them that you want access to — as properties. E.g.
class TextBoxGroup : UserControl
{
public string Text1
{
get { return textBox1.Text; }
set { textBox1.Text = value; }
}
public Color ForeColor1
{
get { return textBox1.ForeColor; }
set { textBox1.ForeColor = value; }
}
public string Text2
{
get { return textBox2.Text; }
set { textBox2.Text = value; }
}
public Color ForeColor2
{
get { return textBox2.ForeColor; }
set { textBox2.ForeColor = value; }
}
// ...
public string Text8
{
get { return textBox8.Text; }
set { textBox8.Text = value; }
}
public Color ForeColor8
{
get { return textBox8.ForeColor; }
set { textBox8.ForeColor = value; }
}
}
Then in your method, rather than whatever logic you planned on using to figure the starting index for your group, instead you just retrieve the appropriate TextBoxGroup instance and use it in the switch, like this:
case "000":
textBoxGroup.Text1 = "000";
textBoxGroup.ForeColor1 = Color.Red;
textBoxGroup.Text2 = "500";
textBoxGroup.Text3 = "050";
textBoxGroup.Text4 = "005";
textBoxGroup.Text5 = "550";
textBoxGroup.Text6 = "505";
textBoxGroup.Text7 = "055";
textBoxGroup.Text8 = "555";
textBoxGroup.ForeColor8 = Color.Red;
break;
A variation on the above would encapsulate the properties with setter methods taking an index. E.g.
class TextBoxGroup : UserControl
{
// Initialized in constructor to be the eight TextBoxes
private TextBox[] _textboxes;
public void SetText(int i, string text)
{
_textboxes[i].Text = text;
}
}
Of course, if you don't want to use a UserControl, you could just initialize a similar data structure in the main form instead, so that the controls can be accessed by index. But personally, I'd prefer the UserControl as it makes it easier to reuse and ensure consistency across all the groups of TextBox controls.
I am trying to read a *.csv-file.
The *.csv-file consist of two columns separated by semicolon (";").
I am able to read the *.csv-file using StreamReader and able to separate each line by using the Split() function. I want to store each column into a separate array and then display it.
Is it possible to do that?
You can do it like this:
using System.IO;
static void Main(string[] args)
{
using(var reader = new StreamReader(#"C:\test.csv"))
{
List<string> listA = new List<string>();
List<string> listB = new List<string>();
while (!reader.EndOfStream)
{
var line = reader.ReadLine();
var values = line.Split(';');
listA.Add(values[0]);
listB.Add(values[1]);
}
}
}
My favourite CSV parser is one built into .NET library. This is a hidden treasure inside Microsoft.VisualBasic namespace.
Below is a sample code:
using Microsoft.VisualBasic.FileIO;
var path = #"C:\Person.csv"; // Habeeb, "Dubai Media City, Dubai"
using (TextFieldParser csvParser = new TextFieldParser(path))
{
csvParser.CommentTokens = new string[] { "#" };
csvParser.SetDelimiters(new string[] { "," });
csvParser.HasFieldsEnclosedInQuotes = true;
// Skip the row with the column names
csvParser.ReadLine();
while (!csvParser.EndOfData)
{
// Read current line fields, pointer moves to the next line.
string[] fields = csvParser.ReadFields();
string Name = fields[0];
string Address = fields[1];
}
}
Remember to add reference to Microsoft.VisualBasic
More details about the parser is given here: http://codeskaters.blogspot.ae/2015/11/c-easiest-csv-parser-built-in-net.html
LINQ way:
var lines = File.ReadAllLines("test.txt").Select(a => a.Split(';'));
var csv = from line in lines
select (from piece in line
select piece);
^^Wrong - Edit by Nick
It appears the original answerer was attempting to populate csv with a 2 dimensional array - an array containing arrays. Each item in the first array contains an array representing that line number with each item in the nested array containing the data for that specific column.
var csv = from line in lines
select (line.Split(',')).ToArray();
Just came across this library: https://github.com/JoshClose/CsvHelper
Very intuitive and easy to use. Has a nuget package too which made is quick to implement: https://www.nuget.org/packages/CsvHelper/27.2.1. Also appears to be actively maintained which I like.
Configuring it to use a semi-colon is easy: https://github.com/JoshClose/CsvHelper/wiki/Custom-Configurations
You can't create an array immediately because you need to know the number of rows from the beginning (and this would require to read the csv file twice)
You can store values in two List<T> and then use them or convert into an array using List<T>.ToArray()
Very simple example:
var column1 = new List<string>();
var column2 = new List<string>();
using (var rd = new StreamReader("filename.csv"))
{
while (!rd.EndOfStream)
{
var splits = rd.ReadLine().Split(';');
column1.Add(splits[0]);
column2.Add(splits[1]);
}
}
// print column1
Console.WriteLine("Column 1:");
foreach (var element in column1)
Console.WriteLine(element);
// print column2
Console.WriteLine("Column 2:");
foreach (var element in column2)
Console.WriteLine(element);
N.B.
Please note that this is just a very simple example. Using string.Split does not account for cases where some records contain the separator ; inside it.
For a safer approach, consider using some csv specific libraries like CsvHelper on nuget.
I usually use this parser from codeproject, since there's a bunch of character escapes and similar that it handles for me.
Here is my variation of the top voted answer:
var contents = File.ReadAllText(filename).Split('\n');
var csv = from line in contents
select line.Split(',').ToArray();
The csv variable can then be used as in the following example:
int headerRows = 5;
foreach (var row in csv.Skip(headerRows)
.TakeWhile(r => r.Length > 1 && r.Last().Trim().Length > 0))
{
String zerothColumnValue = row[0]; // leftmost column
var firstColumnValue = row[1];
}
If you need to skip (head-)lines and/or columns, you can use this to create a 2-dimensional array:
var lines = File.ReadAllLines(path).Select(a => a.Split(';'));
var csv = (from line in lines
select (from col in line
select col).Skip(1).ToArray() // skip the first column
).Skip(2).ToArray(); // skip 2 headlines
This is quite useful if you need to shape the data before you process it further (assuming the first 2 lines consist of the headline, and the first column is a row title - which you don't need to have in the array because you just want to regard the data).
N.B. You can easily get the headlines and the 1st column by using the following code:
var coltitle = (from line in lines
select line.Skip(1).ToArray() // skip 1st column
).Skip(1).Take(1).FirstOrDefault().ToArray(); // take the 2nd row
var rowtitle = (from line in lines select line[0] // take 1st column
).Skip(2).ToArray(); // skip 2 headlines
This code example assumes the following structure of your *.csv file:
Note: If you need to skip empty rows - which can by handy sometimes, you can do so by inserting
where line.Any(a=>!string.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(a))
between the from and the select statement in the LINQ code examples above.
You can use Microsoft.VisualBasic.FileIO.TextFieldParser dll in C# for better performance
get below code example from above article
static void Main()
{
string csv_file_path=#"C:\Users\Administrator\Desktop\test.csv";
DataTable csvData = GetDataTabletFromCSVFile(csv_file_path);
Console.WriteLine("Rows count:" + csvData.Rows.Count);
Console.ReadLine();
}
private static DataTable GetDataTabletFromCSVFile(string csv_file_path)
{
DataTable csvData = new DataTable();
try
{
using(TextFieldParser csvReader = new TextFieldParser(csv_file_path))
{
csvReader.SetDelimiters(new string[] { "," });
csvReader.HasFieldsEnclosedInQuotes = true;
string[] colFields = csvReader.ReadFields();
foreach (string column in colFields)
{
DataColumn datecolumn = new DataColumn(column);
datecolumn.AllowDBNull = true;
csvData.Columns.Add(datecolumn);
}
while (!csvReader.EndOfData)
{
string[] fieldData = csvReader.ReadFields();
//Making empty value as null
for (int i = 0; i < fieldData.Length; i++)
{
if (fieldData[i] == "")
{
fieldData[i] = null;
}
}
csvData.Rows.Add(fieldData);
}
}
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
}
return csvData;
}
Hi all, I created a static class for doing this.
+ column check
+ quota sign removal
public static class CSV
{
public static List<string[]> Import(string file, char csvDelimiter, bool ignoreHeadline, bool removeQuoteSign)
{
return ReadCSVFile(file, csvDelimiter, ignoreHeadline, removeQuoteSign);
}
private static List<string[]> ReadCSVFile(string filename, char csvDelimiter, bool ignoreHeadline, bool removeQuoteSign)
{
string[] result = new string[0];
List<string[]> lst = new List<string[]>();
string line;
int currentLineNumner = 0;
int columnCount = 0;
// Read the file and display it line by line.
using (System.IO.StreamReader file = new System.IO.StreamReader(filename))
{
while ((line = file.ReadLine()) != null)
{
currentLineNumner++;
string[] strAr = line.Split(csvDelimiter);
// save column count of dirst line
if (currentLineNumner == 1)
{
columnCount = strAr.Count();
}
else
{
//Check column count of every other lines
if (strAr.Count() != columnCount)
{
throw new Exception(string.Format("CSV Import Exception: Wrong column count in line {0}", currentLineNumner));
}
}
if (removeQuoteSign) strAr = RemoveQouteSign(strAr);
if (ignoreHeadline)
{
if(currentLineNumner !=1) lst.Add(strAr);
}
else
{
lst.Add(strAr);
}
}
}
return lst;
}
private static string[] RemoveQouteSign(string[] ar)
{
for (int i = 0;i< ar.Count() ; i++)
{
if (ar[i].StartsWith("\"") || ar[i].StartsWith("'")) ar[i] = ar[i].Substring(1);
if (ar[i].EndsWith("\"") || ar[i].EndsWith("'")) ar[i] = ar[i].Substring(0,ar[i].Length-1);
}
return ar;
}
}
I have spend few hours searching for a right library, but finally I wrote my own code :)
You can read file (or database) with whatever tools you want and then apply the following routine to each line:
private static string[] SmartSplit(string line, char separator = ',')
{
var inQuotes = false;
var token = "";
var lines = new List<string>();
for (var i = 0; i < line.Length; i++) {
var ch = line[i];
if (inQuotes) // process string in quotes,
{
if (ch == '"') {
if (i<line.Length-1 && line[i + 1] == '"') {
i++;
token += '"';
}
else inQuotes = false;
} else token += ch;
} else {
if (ch == '"') inQuotes = true;
else if (ch == separator) {
lines.Add(token);
token = "";
} else token += ch;
}
}
lines.Add(token);
return lines.ToArray();
}
var firstColumn = new List<string>();
var lastColumn = new List<string>();
// your code for reading CSV file
foreach(var line in file)
{
var array = line.Split(';');
firstColumn.Add(array[0]);
lastColumn.Add(array[1]);
}
var firstArray = firstColumn.ToArray();
var lastArray = lastColumn.ToArray();
Here's a special case where one of data field has semicolon (";") as part of it's data in that case most of answers above will fail.
Solution in that case will be
string[] csvRows = System.IO.File.ReadAllLines(FullyQaulifiedFileName);
string[] fields = null;
List<string> lstFields;
string field;
bool quoteStarted = false;
foreach (string csvRow in csvRows)
{
lstFields = new List<string>();
field = "";
for (int i = 0; i < csvRow.Length; i++)
{
string tmp = csvRow.ElementAt(i).ToString();
if(String.Compare(tmp,"\"")==0)
{
quoteStarted = !quoteStarted;
}
if (String.Compare(tmp, ";") == 0 && !quoteStarted)
{
lstFields.Add(field);
field = "";
}
else if (String.Compare(tmp, "\"") != 0)
{
field += tmp;
}
}
if(!string.IsNullOrEmpty(field))
{
lstFields.Add(field);
field = "";
}
// This will hold values for each column for current row under processing
fields = lstFields.ToArray();
}
The open-source Angara.Table library allows to load CSV into typed columns, so you can get the arrays from the columns. Each column can be indexed both by name or index. See http://predictionmachines.github.io/Angara.Table/saveload.html.
The library follows RFC4180 for CSV; it enables type inference and multiline strings.
Example:
using System.Collections.Immutable;
using Angara.Data;
using Angara.Data.DelimitedFile;
...
ReadSettings settings = new ReadSettings(Delimiter.Semicolon, false, true, null, null);
Table table = Table.Load("data.csv", settings);
ImmutableArray<double> a = table["double-column-name"].Rows.AsReal;
for(int i = 0; i < a.Length; i++)
{
Console.WriteLine("{0}: {1}", i, a[i]);
}
You can see a column type using the type Column, e.g.
Column c = table["double-column-name"];
Console.WriteLine("Column {0} is double: {1}", c.Name, c.Rows.IsRealColumn);
Since the library is focused on F#, you might need to add a reference to the FSharp.Core 4.4 assembly; click 'Add Reference' on the project and choose FSharp.Core 4.4 under "Assemblies" -> "Extensions".
I have been using csvreader.com(paid component) for years, and I have never had a problem. It is solid, small and fast, but you do have to pay for it. You can set the delimiter to whatever you like.
using (CsvReader reader = new CsvReader(s) {
reader.Settings.Delimiter = ';';
reader.ReadHeaders(); // if headers on a line by themselves. Makes reader.Headers[] available
while (reader.ReadRecord())
... use reader.Values[col_i] ...
}
I am just student working on my master's thesis, but this is the way I solved it and it worked well for me. First you select your file from directory (only in csv format) and then you put the data into the lists.
List<float> t = new List<float>();
List<float> SensorI = new List<float>();
List<float> SensorII = new List<float>();
List<float> SensorIII = new List<float>();
using (OpenFileDialog dialog = new OpenFileDialog())
{
try
{
dialog.Filter = "csv files (*.csv)|*.csv";
dialog.Multiselect = false;
dialog.InitialDirectory = ".";
dialog.Title = "Select file (only in csv format)";
if (dialog.ShowDialog() == DialogResult.OK)
{
var fs = File.ReadAllLines(dialog.FileName).Select(a => a.Split(';'));
int counter = 0;
foreach (var line in fs)
{
counter++;
if (counter > 2) // Skip first two headder lines
{
this.t.Add(float.Parse(line[0]));
this.SensorI.Add(float.Parse(line[1]));
this.SensorII.Add(float.Parse(line[2]));
this.SensorIII.Add(float.Parse(line[3]));
}
}
}
}
catch (Exception exc)
{
MessageBox.Show(
"Error while opening the file.\n" + exc.Message,
this.Text,
MessageBoxButtons.OK,
MessageBoxIcon.Error
);
}
}
This is my 2 simple static methods to convert text from csv file to List<List<string>> and vice versa. Each method use row convertor.
This code should take into account all the possibilities of the csv file. You can define own csv separator and this methods try to correct escape double 'quote' char, and deals with the situation when all text in quotes are one cell and csv separator is inside quoted string including multiple lines in one cell and can ignore empty rows.
Last method is only for testing. So you can ignore it, or test your own, or others solution with this test method :). For testing I used this hard csv with 2 rows on 4 lines:
0,a,""bc,d
"e, f",g,"this,is, o
ne ""lo
ng, cell""",h
This is final code. For simplicity, I removed all try catch blocks.

List<List<string>> csvList = new List<List<string>>() { new List<string>() { "0", "a", "\"bc", "d" }, new List<string>() { "e, f", "g", "this,is, o" + Environment.NewLine + "ne \"lo" + Environment.NewLine + "ng, cell\"", "h" } };

string csvListAsText = Csv.FromListToString(csvList);
return ok && csvListAsText == csvText;
}
}
Usage examples:
// get List<List<string>> representation of csv
var csvFromText = Csv.FromStringToList(csvAsText);
// read csv file with custom separator and quote
// return no header and ignore empty rows
var csvFile = File.ReadAllText(csvFileFullPath);
var csvFromFile = Csv.FromStringToList(csvFile, ";", '"', false, false);
// get text representation of csvData from List<List<string>>
var csvAsText = Csv.FromListToString(csvData);
Notes:
This: char tempQuote = (char)162; is first rare character from ASCI table. The script searches for this, or the first next few ascii character that is NOT in the text and uses it as a temporary escape and quote characters.
Still wrong. You need to compensate for "" in quotes.
Here is my solution Microsoft style csv.
/// <summary>
/// Microsoft style csv file. " is the quote character, "" is an escaped quote.
/// </summary>
/// <param name="fileName"></param>
/// <param name="sepChar"></param>
/// <param name="quoteChar"></param>
/// <param name="escChar"></param>
/// <returns></returns>
public static List<string[]> ReadCSVFileMSStyle(string fileName, char sepChar = ',', char quoteChar = '"')
{
List<string[]> ret = new List<string[]>();
string[] csvRows = System.IO.File.ReadAllLines(fileName);
foreach (string csvRow in csvRows)
{
bool inQuotes = false;
List<string> fields = new List<string>();
string field = "";
for (int i = 0; i < csvRow.Length; i++)
{
if (inQuotes)
{
// Is it a "" inside quoted area? (escaped litteral quote)
if(i < csvRow.Length - 1 && csvRow[i] == quoteChar && csvRow[i+1] == quoteChar)
{
i++;
field += quoteChar;
}
else if(csvRow[i] == quoteChar)
{
inQuotes = false;
}
else
{
field += csvRow[i];
}
}
else // Not in quoted region
{
if (csvRow[i] == quoteChar)
{
inQuotes = true;
}
if (csvRow[i] == sepChar)
{
fields.Add(field);
field = "";
}
else
{
field += csvRow[i];
}
}
}
if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(field))
{
fields.Add(field);
field = "";
}
ret.Add(fields.ToArray());
}
return ret;
}
}
I have a library that is doing exactly you need.
Some time ago I had wrote simple and fast enough library for work with CSV files. You can find it by the following link: https://github.com/ukushu/DataExporter/blob/master/Csv.cs
It works with CSV like with 2 dimensions array. Exactly like you need.
As example, in case of you need all of values of 3rd row only you need is to write:
Csv csv = new Csv();
csv.FileOpen("c:\\file1.csv");
var allValuesOf3rdRow = csv.Rows[2];
or to read 2nd cell of 3rd row:
var value = csv.Rows[2][1];
Headers are required in csv for json conversion in the below code
You can use below code as is without making any changes.
This code will work with two row headers or with one row header.
Below code reads the uploaded IForm File and converts to memory stream.
If you want to use file path instead of uploaded file you can replace
new StreamReader(ms, System.Text.Encoding.UTF8, true)) with new StreamReader("../../examplefilepath");
using (var ms = new MemoryStream())
{
administrativesViewModel.csvFile.CopyTo(ms);
ms.Position = 0;
using (StreamReader csvReader = new StreamReader(ms, System.Text.Encoding.UTF8, true))
{
List<string> lines = new List<string>();
while (!csvReader.EndOfStream)
{
var line = csvReader.ReadLine();
var values = line.Split(';');
if (values[0] != "" && values[0] != null)
{
lines.Add(values[0]);
}
}
var csv = new List<string[]>();
foreach (string item in lines)
{
csv.Add(item.Split(','));
}
var properties = lines[0].Split(',');
int csvI = 1;
var listObjResult = new List<Dictionary<string, string>>();
if (lines.Count() > 1)
{
var ln = lines[0].Substring(0, lines[0].Count() - 1);
var ln1 = lines[1].Substring(0, lines[1].Count() - 1);
var lnSplit = ln.Split(',');
var ln1Split = ln1.Split(',');
if (lnSplit.Count() != ln1Split.Count())
{
properties = lines[1].Split(',');
csvI = 2;
}
}
for (int i = csvI; i < csv.Count(); i++)
{
var objResult = new Dictionary<string, string>();
if (csvI > 0)
{
var splitProp = lines[0].Split(":");
if (splitProp.Count() > 1)
{
if (splitProp[0] != "" && splitProp[0] != null && splitProp[1] != "" && splitProp[1] != null)
{
objResult.Add(splitProp[0], splitProp[1]);
}
}
}
for (int j = 0; j < properties.Length; j++)
if (!properties[j].Contains(":"))
{
objResult.Add(properties[j], csv[i][j]);
}
listObjResult.Add(objResult);
}
var result = JsonConvert.SerializeObject(listObjResult);
var result2 = JArray.Parse(result);
Console.WriteLine(result2);
}
}

I have a DataGridView that I'm populating from a list. The function that edits this list is called LoadCollectionData()'. Extra rows get added to the list just fine, and the relevant data pertaining to that row populates when the row is added.
The problem is that later on when other data is being changed that'd alter what's displayed on the datagrid, only the top row continues to update, all of the others remain the same.
Here's the code for the method:
public bool haschanged = false;
public class KeywordDensity
{
public bool included { get; set; }
public string keyword { get; set; }
public string occurences { get; set; }
public string density { get; set; }
}
public int WordCount(string txtToCount)
{
string pattern = "\\w+";
Regex regex = new Regex(pattern);
int CountedWords = regex.Matches(txtToCount).Count;
return CountedWords;
}
public int KeywordCount(string txtToCount, string pattern)
{
Regex regex = new Regex(pattern);
int CountedWords = regex.Matches(txtToCount).Count;
return CountedWords;
}
public List<KeywordDensity> LoadCollectionData()
{
string thearticle = txtArticle.Text.ToLower();
string keywordslower = txtKeywords.Text.ToLower();
string[] keywordsarray = keywordslower.Split('\r');
List<KeywordDensity> lsikeywords = new List<KeywordDensity>();
bool isincluded = false;
double keywordcount = 0;
double wordcount = WordCount(thearticle);
double thedensity = 0;
foreach (string s in keywordsarray)
{
if (s != "")
{
keywordcount = KeywordCount(thearticle, s);
thedensity = keywordcount / wordcount;
thedensity = Math.Round(thedensity, 4) * 100;
if (thearticle.Contains(s))
{
isincluded = true;
}
else
{
isincluded = false;
}
lsikeywords.Add(new KeywordDensity()
{
included = isincluded,
keyword = s,
occurences = keywordcount.ToString(),
density = thedensity.ToString() + "%"
});
}
}
return lsikeywords;
}
private void txtArticle_TextChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
if (haschanged == false)
haschanged = true;
lblWordCountNum.Text = WordCount(txtArticle.Text).ToString();
dataGrid.DataSource = LoadCollectionData();
}
private void dataGrid_MouseUp(object sender, MouseEventArgs e)
{
int cursorpos = 0;
string copied = "";
if (dataGrid.CurrentCellAddress.X == 1) //Only grab content if the "Keyword" column has been clicked on
copied = " " + dataGrid.CurrentCell.Value.ToString() + " ";
cursorpos = txtArticle.SelectionStart;
txtArticle.Text = txtArticle.Text.Insert(cursorpos, copied);
}
What's even more odd, is that when I click on any of the rows, then they immediately update. However, unless the row is clicked on (unless it's the top one) it doesn't update.
Because of this, I suspect there may be some property I need to set on the dataGrid itself, or I need to somehow tell each row to refresh through code.
What's the dealio?
EDIT: It appears that the only reason that the cell that's clicked on updates is because I actively grab content from the cell. I commented out the code below and it stopped updating even when clicked on. It then would only update the top row's values and that's it.
Code:
//Moved above in EDIT 3
EDIT 2: Here's the class declaration for KeywordDensity:
//Moved above in EDIT 3
EDIT 3: Posted whole schebang.
I modified the code slightly, try this code.
string[] keywordsarray = keywordslower.Split
(new char[] {'\r','\n' }, StringSplitOptions.RemoveEmptyEntries);
You may need to Invalidate() the control to trigger a repaint.
call the DataBind() method of the datagrid. That should do.
Update
There's a ResetBindings() in that case.
