Hi @SunnyD
Your project looks very interesting, but I tried to access the URL that hits up but no longer available,
Is there any possibility to access the project code?
Updated the UI a bit and added some graphs to visualize the traffic usage per interval. The graphs are tied into the refresh timer so changing the refresh interval will allow traffic to pile up easier making for a more radical graph.
The "Mono" compatibility framework applies an environment that'll allow C# source code to compile to an executable that the native OS can understand. I'm not sure if it allows other .NET languages as well, but it's a neat project for development abroad. http://www.mono-project.com/Main_Page
It's a surprisingly refreshing language given the similarities. Visual Studio is remarkably nice compared to what I had been using (TextPad, NetBeans, etc..), and is very nice in regards to creating desktop applications thus far. I'll still use Java for somethings, like Applets or others of the like, but C# is more acclimated to Windows (obviously), making many tasks easier.
When converting a character to an integer value it's already in decimal. All this does is take that decimal value and sequence it by assigning a "1" at the index(s) which add up to the decimal number numerically.
I'll have to give it a try. Why don't you try building a simple Windows Store app? That'd probably be a good thing to get into if you're doing Windows development.
VS Studio has some really nice tools for UI development of Windows Store apps. Templates, and grids of the like. That being said, I like how C# can work more interactively with Windows instead of being bottle-necked like Java seems to be, but that's to be expected since it IS developed by Microsoft. Lol.
Great. I'm tempted to get into this sort of thing sometime in the future. Hawkee was accepted into Microsoft Bizspark, so I have all of the Microsoft software at my disposal to create applications. Once we have an iPhone and Android app I may consider doing a Windows 8 app for Hawkee.
