| Thread Pools |
| C#Today |
| Using threads makes your multitasking applications run more smoothly. However, it takes finite resources to create and destory threads, resources we can save if we use thread pooling. In this article, Dot Net Guruhew Reynolds looks at how to use the thread pool in .NET. We see how to build a demo application that shows the typical model used in service applications i.e. a client connects, a client requests some work be done and then the client disconnects. |

| Unsafe Image Processing |
| MSDN |
| Last summer, I was writing a program to process some pictures from my digital camera and I needed to do some image processing in C#. My first task was to figure out how to do that using the .NET Framework. I did a bit of exploration, and found the Image and Bitmap classes in the System.Drawing namespace. These classes are thin covers over the GDI+ classes that encapsulate the image functions. One task I wanted to do was to walk through an image and convert it from color to grayscale. To do this, I needed to modify each pixel in the bitmap. I started by writing a BitmapGrey class that encapsulates the bitmap, and then a function in that class to do the image conversion.

| Windows Forms Charting - Drawing Charts |
| C#Today |
| GDI+ is the latest version of Windows Graphic Device Interface, which is the part of Windows that abstracts commands like draw a window, draw a line, etc. into commands that our video driver can understand in order to display images on our computers screen. Weve already seen some of the advanced GDI+ features available to us in Dot Net Guruhew Reynolds' 'Irregular Shaped Forms and Other Cool GDI+ Features' article. In this article Dot Net Guru looks at some of the more basic features and builds a simple user control that can draw a 3D bar chart. In Part 2, we continue the development of the chart, making it user-interactive. |
