I have this program that supposed to reads multiple text files on the same folder, in that folder there's 2 text files which are supposed to be read, ok now I have to generate a new TextBox based on the total numbers of text files in that folder.
Main Goal
Load the contents of those files in each textbox
- File1.txt contents will be loaded into TextBox1.
- File2.txt contents will be loaded into TextBox2.
Content of File1.txt:
Title 1
ABCDEFG
Content of File2.txt:
Title 2
1234567890
The problem
Loading the contents of those files into each TextBoxes works fine, but the problem is that the newline isn't created on the TextBoxes.
Instead I got this on each textboxes:
TextBox 1:
Title 1ABCDEFG
TextBox 2:
Title 21234567890
Do the necessary stuff as soon the program loads:
private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e) {
flowLayoutPanel1.AutoScroll = true;
var dirs_notes = @"C:\MAIN_LOC\DATA_LOC\";
var count_notes = Directory.GetFiles(dirs_notes,"*.*",SearchOption.AllDirectories).Count();
string setup_path = @"C:\MAIN_LOC\DATA_LOC\";
if(Directory.Exists(setup_path)) {
string[] get_notes = Directory.GetFiles(dirs_notes, "*.txt", SearchOption.AllDirectories);
string[] get_texts = get_notes.Select(x => File.ReadAllText(x)).ToArray();
for(int i=0; i<count_notes; i ) {
int top = 25;
int h_p = 170;
var load_note = new Guna2TextBox() {
Text = "\n" get_texts[i],
Name = "Note" i,
Multiline = true,
AcceptsTab = true,
AcceptsReturn = true,
WordWrap = false,
Width = 230,
Height = 145,
BorderRadius = 8,
Font = new Font("Bahnschrift", 13),
ForeColor = Color.White,
FillColor = ColorTranslator.FromHtml("#1E1E1E"),
BorderColor = ColorTranslator.FromHtml("#2C2C2C"),
Location = new Point(450, top)
};
top = h_p;
flowLayoutPanel1.Controls.Add(load_note);
}
} else {
MessageBox.Show("There's problem with loading notes..", "Flow Notes System");
}
}
CodePudding user response:
A fix could be using the Lines property instead of the Text property.
var dirs_notes = @"C:\MAIN_LOC\DATA_LOC\";
// Be sure to count only txt files here...
var count_notes = Directory.GetFiles(dirs_notes,"*.txt",SearchOption.AllDirectories).Count();
string setup_path = @"C:\MAIN_LOC\DATA_LOC\";
if(Directory.Exists(setup_path)) {
string[] get_notes = Directory.GetFiles(dirs_notes, "*.txt", SearchOption.AllDirectories);
var get_texts = get_notes.Select(x => File.ReadLines(x));
for(int i=0; i<count_notes; i ) {
....
var load_note = new Guna2TextBox() {
Lines = "\n" get_texts[i].ToArray(),
But a better approach is to use this instead:
// No counting here (counting means load all
// files names in a memory array and the get its length
var files = Directory.EnumerateFiles(dirs_notes,"*.txt",SearchOption.AllDirectories)
int i = 1;
// Enumerate files one by one without loading all names in memory
foreach(string file in files) {
int top = 25;
int h_p = 170;
var load_note = new Guna2TextBox() {
// Set the textbox with the current file lines content
// again one by one without loading all texts in memory
Lines = File.ReadLines(file).ToArray(),
Name = "Note" i,
...
}
i ;
.....
}
