hey,
can anyone explain to me why this method that is called numerous times
to read chunks of a file works fine with a normal synchronous read,
but causes a large memory leak when BeginRead() is called instead?
private double[] ReadChunk(FileS tream fileReader, int
readLength, int channel)
{
short currentShort;
int i;
byte[] inBuffer = new byte[2 * readLength];
double[] scaledChunk = new double[readLength];
// causes massive memory leak, why?
IAsyncResult ar = fileReader.Begi nRead(inBuffer, 0,
inBuffer.Length , null, null);
ar.AsyncWaitHan dle.WaitOne();
// works fine if i just call this
//fileReader.Read (inBuffer, 0, inBuffer.Length );
for (i = 0; i < scaledChunk.Len gth; i++)
{
currentShort = (short)((inBuff er[2 * i] << 8) +
inBuffer[2 * i + 1]);
scaledChunk[i] = (scaling[channel, 2] *
(double)current Short
+ scaling[channel, 1]) * scaling[channel, 3];
}
return scaledChunk;
} 4 3138

Are you ever calling EndRead? If not, that's probably the problem.
(I assume that in your real code there's a point to using asynchronous
IO. If you're just going to wait for it to complete, you might as well
do it synchronously to start with.)

hey jon
yes, there is a point (i think) in reading asynchronously, in that
this method is going to be called many times by separate threads
running at the same time. am i correct in thinking that using async
reads will improve performance?
where would i call EndRead(), in the BeginRead callback delegate?

Call EndRead in a call back method.
public static void ReadFileCallbac k(IAsyncResult asyncResult)
{
//Get the state using asyncResult.Asy ncState and get the stream from
state.
//Then call stream.EndRead( asyncResult);. This woud return the size of
data read.
}

No - because you're already multi-threaded by the fact that the method
is going to be called many times by many separate threads! By blocking
until the read has finished, you've effectively got much more
complicated code but synchronous IO (per thread).

That's a fairly common place to do it, yes.

Hello -
I am trying to write a class that has an async BeginX and EndX, plus the
regular X syncronous method. Delegates seemed like the way to go,
however, I still am having problems getting exactly what I want. Here are
my goals
1. I would like the IAsyncResult that is returned by the Begin function to
be able to be waited on or polled to check for completion.
2. The Begin function would take a callback, and the async process would

Hi,
I've omitted a large chunk of the code for clarity but the loop below is how
I'm calling a delegate function asynchronously. After I start the each call
I'm incrementing a counter and then making the main thread sleep until the

the counter. Is there a better way to make the thread wait until all calls
are complete besides using the counter? I've seen some things...

Here's a problem that's been driving me nuts for the last 48 hours.
I'm hoping that someone has come across this before.

Then it repackages these UDP packets and sends them to a subscriber

Now, I can read the UDP stream all day long without the application

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
