i can not get my ouptup box to show multiple line responses. this should show all installed software by name in the textbox but i only get 1 output line showing up.


Code: 
                    ConnectionOptions connProd = new ConnectionOptions();
                    //connection.Username = userNameBox.Text;
                    //connection.Password = passwordBox.Text;
                    //connection.Authority = "ntlmdomain:ficont.finneycounty.org";

                    ManagementScope scopeProd = new ManagementScope(
                        "\\\\" + computerName + "\\root\\cimv2", connProd);
                    scopeProd.Connect();

                    ObjectQuery queryProd = new ObjectQuery(
                        "SELECT * FROM Win32_Product");

                    ManagementObjectSearcher searcherProd =
                        new ManagementObjectSearcher(scopeProd, queryProd);

                    foreach (ManagementObject queryObjProd in searcherProd.Get())
                    {
                        txtProd.Text = queryObjProd["Name"].ToString (); 
                        
                        
                    }
 
that is because the txtProd.Text is being assigned to the current value from the loop and not making a list of them, try...
txtProd.Text += queryObjProd["Name"].ToString();

You will likely need to add in a line feed as well if you want one per line...
txtProd.Text += queryObjProd["Name"].ToString()+Environment.NewLine;
 
BEAUTIFUL!! that worked perfectly!

(counting the time it took to get visual studio installed today is the third day i have been messing with C#, and this is the first textbox output i have done so i figured it was some silly thing that i just have not used yet)

thanks again.
 
It looks like there are potentially tons of items in the collection you're looping through, so you'll want to use a StringBuilder there instead of string concatenation. Since you're new to C# land, it's a good habit to get into.

Click to expand...



i just switched this one to
"SELECT Name FROM Win32_Product"

i do have one entry where i actually am using an * and pulling all fields but i am writing out probably more than 3/4 of them so i figured it was justifiable in that instance.


thanks again.
 
heres the entire thing, for your amusement. its hideous right now and the huge chunks of comments are designs i didnt use but i kept most of it in there for examples incase i needed it.

I think this is pretty fucking cool. I used to mess around in C and its been a gazillion years... but this thread has peaked my interest..
 
this app will start and stop remote services, list and uninstall remote application. and list a bunch of remote machine info. based on domain security. most of the stuff to allow login authentication is in there just commented out as i am using logged in user over the domain so i do not need it.

i hunted all over for block commenting, even VS did line comments when i highlighted a block and hit the comment all keys.

CodePlex would probably be your best bet if you are looking for a collaborative environment.
 
i just registered a codeplex page. hopefully i will have a homepage and code uploaded soon. my work, and a few other businesses are using the app so far.

and it will be nice to have a master version available as Ive made so many bugfixes even against my posts on here that i am starting to loose track of versions.
 
Thanks for sharing! I'll definitely take a look at that - looks pretty interesting and useful.
 
For your C# tinkering needs, I also recommend checking out https://dotnetfiddle.net/ . It's not for Windows Forms or WPF apps, but you can run C# console apps in the browser with ease. With tools making it this easy, people really have no excuse not to learn to program :) You may also be able to use it to share your project, though I'm not sure if the required packages are supported in your case.

Speaking of, when I first learned C# a few years ago, I had a good experience running through the first 25-30 of these tutorial videos, and was able to figure everything else I needed out from there- https://www.thenewboston.com/videos.php?cat=15
 
those videos also look like they are using visual studio. for me learning my way around that beast was far worse than the coding part. it is not a requirement to use VS, but if you are going to program in an MS created platform you might as well use MS created tools.
 
here is what was in use before this GUI version was thought up. make it a .bat on your windows box and run it, its still quite useful. no where near as pretty as the current GUI app though.

Click to expand...

Plus they made VS Community Edition, which is essentially VS Pro, available for free.
 
resharper will change your life too ;) have somebody with a .edu email get a free license for you. I'm on my second .edu address.
