Programming help! Pause My Program! C#

1 New Member
Hi all!

i am new to this site,i came across it while i was searching through google.
anyway my name is holly and i am a programmer in london...ect ect.

i have just programmed a application for a friend of mine in C#.
the only problem i am having is that the application hangs when i perform a certain function when processing customers details.in java,i know how to slow down the application,but in C# i dont really know how.

i have tried using tickers but i cant get that to work properly and it crashes my app.
also i have tried the sleep function and that hasnt worked either.

any help would be great.

What exactly happened when you tried the Thread.sleep method?

(apologies if this is not the right place to ask--suggestions on a more appropriate venue welcome!) I would like to do some literate programming-type writing, probably using the DocBook format. The paper by Norman Walsh entitled "Literate Programming in XML" seems to be a good way to do that, using a couple small namespace extensions (src:fragment and src:fragref). I could write it in raw XML if need be, but I'd rather use s.t. like...

Is it just me, or am I really observing a trend away from analysis and probem-solving amongst programmers? Let me be more specific: It seems that every day, in greater numbers, people are coming to these programming newsgroups and asking for ready-made solutions to fairly simple programming problems. They either want someone to write code for them, or point them to a ready-made chunk of software that does what they need to do. Now, I'm...

I want to spend two minutes on my soapbox. I love C#. I am so productive in it it's ridiculous. But it's so easy to write code that uses poor design principles. Example: just making variables public instead of using properties. Another example: passing references to forms to other classes so they can modify things (tight coupling). So in essence, there are so many ways to do things that many of them are just flat-out poor...

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers. The idea...
