Ping over a period of time
I have a windows forms app that basically pings an ip and then returns an image with a tooltip that displays the rtt for that ip.
What I want to do is ping the ip form every 20 seconds so that the form and images change. If I could get this to work, I would like some kind of store, maybe 4 rtt, then show the average of 4 in the prompt.
So far the form is only pinged once, I've been playing around with the timer, but I really don't know what I'm doing. Here is my code so far.
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.ComponentModel;
using System.Data;
using System.Drawing;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Windows.Forms;
using System.Net.NetworkInformation;
using System.ServiceProcess;
using System.Threading;
using System.ComponentModel;
namespace WindowsFormsApplication2
{
public partial class Form1 : Form
{
public Form1()
{
InitializeComponent();
}
public void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
Ping pingClass = new Ping();
PingReply pingReply = pingClass.Send("10.209.123.123");
label4.Text = (pingReply.RoundtripTime.ToString());
//+ "ms");
label5.Text = (pingReply.Status.ToString());
if (Convert.ToInt32(label4.Text) > 0 && Convert.ToInt32(label4.Text) < 100)
this.pictureBox1.Load("greenLAT.png");
if (Convert.ToInt32(label4.Text) > 100 && Convert.ToInt32(label4.Text) < 200)
this.pictureBox1.Load("yellowLAT.png");
if (Convert.ToInt32(label4.Text) > 200 && Convert.ToInt32(label4.Text) < 1000)
this.pictureBox1.Load("redLAT.png");
ToolTip tt = new ToolTip();
tt.SetToolTip(this.pictureBox1, "Your current network delay is " + label4.Text + "ms");
timer1.Interval = 1000;
timer1.Tick += new EventHandler(timer1_Tick);
timer1.Start();
}
private void timer1_Tick(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
//MessageBox.Show("Timeout!");
Refresh();
}
}
}

Try the following:
using System;
using System.ComponentModel;
using System.Drawing;
using System.Globalization;
using System.Net;
using System.Windows.Forms;
using System.Net.NetworkInformation;
namespace DXWindowsApplication4
{
public partial class Form2 : Form
{
private readonly Timer _timer;
private readonly Ping _pingClass;
private readonly IPAddress _ipAddress;
private readonly int _timeout;
private Image _greenImage;
private Image _yellowImage;
private Image _redImage;
private int _pingCount;
private long _avgRtt;
public Form2()
{
InitializeComponent();
IPAddress.TryParse("98.138.253.109", out _ipAddress); // yahoo.com Ip address
_timer = new Timer();
_timeout = 3000;
_pingClass = new Ping();
_pingClass.PingCompleted += PingClassPingCompleted;
}
void PingClassPingCompleted(object sender, PingCompletedEventArgs e)
{
RefreshPing(e.Reply);
}
public void FormLoad(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
_timer.Tick += TimerTick;
_timer.Interval = 4000;
_timer.Start();
}
private void TimerTick(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
_pingClass.SendAsync(_ipAddress, _timeout);
}
private void RefreshPing(PingReply pingReply)
{
label4.Text = (pingReply.RoundtripTime.ToString(CultureInfo.InstalledUICulture));
label5.Text = (pingReply.Status.ToString());
_avgRtt = (_avgRtt * _pingCount++ + pingReply.RoundtripTime)/_pingCount;
if (Convert.ToInt32(label4.Text) > 0 && Convert.ToInt32(label4.Text) < 100)
{
SetImage(pictureBox1, Images.Green);
}
if (Convert.ToInt32(label4.Text) > 100 && Convert.ToInt32(label4.Text) < 200)
{
SetImage(pictureBox1, Images.Yellow);
}
if (Convert.ToInt32(label4.Text) > 200 && Convert.ToInt32(label4.Text) < 1000)
{
SetImage(pictureBox1, Images.Red);
}
ToolTip tt = new ToolTip();
tt.SetToolTip(pictureBox1, "Your average network delay is " + _avgRtt + "ms");
Refresh();
}
private void SetImage(PictureBox pBox, Images images)
{
switch (images)
{
case Images.Green:
if (_greenImage == null)
{
_greenImage = new Bitmap("greenImage.png");
}
pictureBox1.Image = _greenImage;
break;
case Images.Yellow:
if (_greenImage == null)
{
_yellowImage = new Bitmap("yellowImage.png");
}
pictureBox1.Image = _yellowImage;
break;
case Images.Red:
if (_redImage == null)
{
_redImage = new Bitmap("redImage.png");
}
pictureBox1.Image = _greenImage;
break;
default:
throw new InvalidEnumArgumentException("invalid enum name");
}
}
}
internal enum Images
{
Green,
Yellow,
Red
}
}
