BitVector64 Structure

RobK410 — Thu, 30 Aug 2007 16:45:19 GMT

Ok, so I wrote about a nifty little structure I found within the .NET framework and in doing some searching found that there did not exist a BitVector64 anywhere. So being bored, and figuring it would only take me a couple hours, I went ahead and did an implementation of a 64 bit version of the BitVector32 structure. Mine will allow you to set a 64 bit value, and find the bit value for all 64 bits, as well as use a (ushort) Section bit mask if you really want to (not sure why) So here it is, source code included... I'm sure there's something wrong with it, but I know the bit checking works flawlessly!

Please feel free to leave feedback if you find this code useful. Perhaps Microsoft will include it in their next C# release!

Sample Usage:

   1: using RobKennedy.BitVectors;

   2: ...

3:

   4: // Simplest Test of BitVector64

   5: BitVector64 newVec = new BitVector64(Convert.ToInt64(maskedTextBox1.Text));

6:

   7: // check to see if bit 32 is set (33rd bit if counting from 1)

   8: if (newVec[32])

   9:     MessageBox.Show("We are bigger than a dword because bit 32 is on!");

10:

  11: ...

Here's another example provided by a BitVector64 user:

   1: BitArray Arr = new BitArray(32);    2: BitVector64 Arr64 = new BitVector64();    3: BitVector32 Arr32 = new BitVector32();    4: int iter = 100000000;    5: DT1 = DateTime.Now;    6: for (int i = 0; i < iter; i++)    7:     Arr[0] = true;    8:     9: Console.WriteLine("Elapsed:(Arr) " + DateTime.Now.Subtract(DT1).ToString());   10:    11: DT1 = DateTime.Now;   12: for (int i = 0; i < iter; i++)   13:     Arr64[0] = true;   14:    15: Console.WriteLine("Elapsed:(Arr64) " + DateTime.Now.Subtract(DT1).ToString());   16:    17: DT1 = DateTime.Now;   18: for (int i = 0; i < iter; i++)   19:     Arr32[0] = true;   20:    21: Console.WriteLine("Elapsed:(Arr32) " + DateTime.Now.Subtract(DT1).ToString());   22:    23: DT1 = DateTime.Now;   24:    25: //here is the result:   26: //Elapsed:(Arr) 00:00:01.5312500   27: //Elapsed:(Arr64) 00:00:01.1718750   28: //Elapsed:(Arr32) 00:00:00.6093750

Rob Kennedy's Community Server Module Library

Rob Kennedy's Community Server Module Library

This library currently contains only one module which is based on the ShareItModule written by Scott Waters but contains the addition giving you the ability to specify an image icon rather than a text link only. I have also supplied some icon images for you to use. Please read the readme.txt before using as it contains the how-to's on installing.

Lastly, I do plan to add additional modules as they come to mind or are requested. Stay tuned!

Source Code Included!

Build: 1.0.0.0

ShareIt - Similar to the ScottWater library, but with the ability to define an icon image per link defined.

Build 1.0.1.0

MyTagSpace Control - Renders a list of shared bookmarks from the Microsoft Tagspace website

Social Bookmarking is an emerging trend that allows an individual to not only share their bookmarks with others but provides a central store that can easily be accessed from any pc with an internet connection. Tagspace is Microsoft's answer to this marketspace and this control will allow a developer to easily add their Tagspace links onto their web page. An example of this can be seen on my home page here as I've replaced my Blogroll with TagSpace links.

Enjoy!

8/27/07 - Made minor tweak to documentation as there were ";" characters in the sample urls that caused the links to fail for some sharing sites.
