I've created a user control inheriting a picturebox. I want to set a
non-rectangular area to the current system color.control.
I'm looking for either a "fill" command that will set all contiguous
pixels of the same color to a new color, or possibly a command that
changes all pixels of a color to a new color; the only instance of
color.control in the picture is in the background area.
There is a C# edge detection routine that I found on bobpowell.net
(which is an excellent graphics source)so that I could probably use to
build a fill path, but I figure that there must be an easier way.
Thanks in advance. 2 4497

Create a 'Bitmap' object of appropriate size, obtain a 'Graphics' object
using 'Graphics.FromI mage', fill the image in the desired color, call
'MakeTransparen t' on the source bitmap in order to make the pixels filled
with the color that should be replaced transparent. Then use the 'Graphics'
object's 'DrawImage' method to draw the transparent bitmap ontp the
destination bitmap. Call the bitmaps 'Save' method in order to save the
file to disk, or display it using a picturebox control.

If I have a snippet of javascript code like this:
var str = "This is a snippet;
str.replace(/ */gi,' ');
what should the call to replace do? My actual tests show that it inserts
spaces between each letter... but this doesn't make sense to me. From the
regex, it looks like it should be replacing any occurrence of a space
followed by any character with a space, meaning that we should have
something like 'This s nippet'.

Hi all,
I searching a string to see if "Desc" resides in it, if so then replace it
with "Description". For some reason if it finds "Desc" in the word
"Description" it replaces the "Desc" part of it with "Description thus having
the final outcome of "Descriptionription". Is there a way to have the
replace() method only replace if the entire string is "Desc" only and not
"Desc* " ? Hope this makes sense. Thanks in advance.

How can an object replace itself using its own method? See the
following code:

NewClass = type('Mixin', (object.__class__,) + classes, {})
newobj = NewClass()
newobj.__dict__.update(object.__dict__)

I found an alternative to string.Replace(...) that will ignore case when
looking for things to search, and while it's working a lot better than a
standard .Replace(...) it's not working exactly how I'd like.
Here's the code I'm now using:
static string CIR(string input, string oldValue, string newValue)
{
Regex regEx = new Regex(oldValue, RegexOptions.IgnoreCase |
RegexOptions.Singleline);

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
