PS.
Here also is the initial declaration of my property class and its internal fields. Each of the fields is exposed as a property marked with the [Browsable] attribute, and with both get and set methods. But I have nothing but a grayed out property name in my client class:
{
[Serializable]
[ToolboxItem( true )]
[DesignerAttribute( typeof( GCMargins_Designer ) )]
public class GCMargins : Object
{
private enumMarginGroup f_AlignmentGroup;
private Int32 f_Bottom_TopOrBottomAligned;
private Int32 f_Left_LeftOrRightAligned;
private Int32 f_LeftAndRight_TopOrBottomAligned;
private Int32 f_Right_LeftOrRightAligned;
private Int32 f_Top_TopOrBottomAligned;
private Int32 f_TopAndBottom_LeftOrRightAligned;
Here are the property definitions:
#region PROPERTIES

I must also say that the VS walkthroughs are not providing my answer, and I believe this may be because (as Martin's posts seems to suggest) that I should be getting a nested property node in my client class automatically (although this appears to conflict with Christian's answer).
The documentation for PreFilterProperties states:
Allows a designer to add to the set of properties that *it exposes* through a TypeDescriptor.
Being as TypeDescriptors assumably expose all declared public properties via Reflection, I assume this means I should not have to toy with an editor (which doesn't seem to be solving the dysfunctional property listing in the client class, anyway).

Hi
I´ve got the following doubt. I ñve got a datagrid that can be sorted. I have attached a dataset.
For example.
DataSet ds = new DataSet("JAMONES");
ds.COLUMN(nombre);
ds.COLUMN(id);
I have associated a ArrayList with all the JAMONES. I would like to delete the selected JAMON from JAMONES using the id. How can i do to indexed easily the ArrayList?
ArrayList jamones = {jamon1, jamon2};
DataGrid jaomnesDG = {jamon2, jamon1}.
I tried to delete jamon1. How can i delte from jamones.
Best regards,
John

but a long time C/C++ programmer. I've ran in to a bit of a spot that I just can't seem to get a grasp on.
I have a callback in a C++ unmanaged DLL that I've written:
LRESULT CALLBACK eventListener(HWND hWnd, UINT msg, WPARAM wP, LPARAM lP)
{
switch(msg)
{
case WM_PAINT:
{
PAINTSTRUCT ps;
HDC hDc = BeginPaint(GetFocus(), &ps);
if(g_currVideo != NULL)
{
const VideoFrame& currFrame = g_frames[g_currentFrame].frame;
BITMAPINFO bi;
ZeroMemory(&bi, sizeof(bi));
bi.bmiHeader.biSize = sizeof(bi);
bi.bmiHeader.biWidth = currFrame.getWidth();
bi.bmiHeader.biHeight = currFrame.getHeight();
bi.bmiHeader.biPlanes = 1;
bi.bmiHeader.biBitCount = 24;
SetDIBitsToDevice(hDc, 0, 0, currFrame.getWidth(), currFrame.getHeight(),
0, 0, 0, currFrame.getHeight(), currFrame.getData(), &bi, DIB_RGB_COLORS);
}
EndPaint(GetFocus(), &ps);
return 0;
}break;
...
}
In C++, I would have no problem calling this, however, I am lost when it comes to doing it in C#.
The DLL in question relies on the callback to load and play back frames and samples of an uncommon video format.
In C#, I'm able to get it as far as loading that first frame and audio sample, however, without the callback, that's as far as I can go.
My question is how would I implement use of this callback this in C#?

In C#, a callback is called a delegate. If you google delegates in C#, you'll find heaps of info on how they work.

Hi,
we implemented an application, where we designed the architecture like an example given by Microsoft. This architecture uses different layers, so that the presentation layer don't know where the data comes from (like it should be or?). The dataaccess component packages everything into small objects which will be transferred by the business logic to the presentation layer. There we put these objects into a datatable and display the datatable with a DataGridView.
The problem that we have now is, that the application should deal with a large amount of data. This is very slow, because the application puts all the data into the small objects. I read something about the virtual mode of a DataGridView, but this seems to be useful only if you are operating directly with a database. So my question is, does anybody had something similar, and how did you solved it?
Regards
Sebastian

I need to change properties of controls from an external dll
for eg. i have an app. which contains a textbox(textbox1) and references abc.dll
how can i change textbox1.text from abc.dll? Please help.
Thanks in advance.

You shouldn't be doing that. Unless the library is specifically for the purpose of manipulating forms, it shouldn't care about what controls are on a form.
If you're trying to return a value, return it to the caller in the form code and let the form code be responsible for updating the controls.

Thanks a lot for ur reply... appreciate that...
actually what i want to do is this:
i have my application referencing a library.
the application has a progressbar and status bar
the library compiles other solutions(devenv .....) in the background (+ does a few other tasks) and i need it to update the status bar and progress bar
if it would be just text... it wouldnt b a problem to return the text and update textboxes accordingly.
but the progressbar is the problem... thers no point if it gets updated after everything is over..
|
|
|
|
|
It could fire events to say that the status has changed. Something else could then handle the event and update the form accordingly.

Hello everyone, I have a form and a picture, and i want the picture to "hang" off of the form. I have tried making the background of the picture transparent, and making a background with a special color for transparency, but the image has a shadow and the color continues to show up in the shadow when it is run. What should I do differently to get this to work? Thanks.

The image is probably a jpeg. JPEG images use lossy compression, so the color that was solid, is now a range of colors in that general vicinity. Draw the image yourself on your background, in a paint event handler. Use the ImageAttributes class as a parameter when drawing the image, and you can specify a range of colors to make transparent.

Hi, I am writing a program in C#, and I want a customize form to pop up. I created the new form and set it up as a new item (Form frmCustomize = new Form();). So then, in my code, I put this code in for when they click on Customize, and the form shows, but none of the controls are there, any reasons why, or any help?
The code:
// When they click 'Customize' from the help menu the Customize form shows
private void customizeToolStripMenuItem_Cli... sender, EventArgs e)
{
// Show the customize form
frmCustomize.Show();
}

Wolf92 wrote: Form frmCustomize = new Form()
This creates an instance of the base class Form, not the form you created. You have to do something like this:
private Form customiseForm = new CustomiseForm();
Note: I've assumed your customise form class is called CustomiseForm. I've also assumed that you expose no new public functionality. If you do (and it most likely is that you do) then you may wish to declare the customiseForm field as a CustomiseForm rather than a simple Form.
Does this help?

That creates an empty form, which is what you're seeing. You probably meant to do:
Form frmCustomize = new CustomizeForm();

Hello everybody , any help will be greatly appreciated.
======================================================
i have a dll file that contains a compression algorithm this compression is speex , you can search it by googling it.
the file is called libspeex.dll.
i tried to add it as reference in my project but the studio enables only assembly files and COM files only.
the question is :
can i put this file in the same path of the application i mean in the "debug" folder to be able to export methods from it ????
and if i used
[DllImport("libspeex.dll")]
in my code and tried to export methods will it read the libspeex.dll or it will not find it .
i just wonder because i am always using to put in the parameter of the dllimport() attribute any dll file from system32 but i never used to put a local file into it
please can anybody help me ? if this method will work or if not ,how can i export functions from this unmanaged file.
Human knowledge belongs to the world.

Put the DLL in your project (Add Existing Item). When it appears, right click it and select properties. In the properties marking it as "Content" and "Copy Always". That will ensure it is copied to your Debug folder and Visual Studio keeps track of it through the project. It will also get added automatically to any set up projects you create.

The DLL must be in the Current Path at run time in order for your application to find the DLL. You can specify a full path name, but if the DLL is subsequently moved then you'd have problems.

Hi,
I have an interesting scenario.
I’m trying to pass a GUID to my Sql Parameter in a Stored procedure.
First I added the parameter:
command.Parameter.Add(new SqlParameter(“@myID", UniqueIdentifier, 0));
Now, my problem..
The myID GUID comes from a textbox which I generate a Guid.NewGuid() for.
When I try to set the parameter value like this:
command.Parameter[0].value = textbox.Text;
No this doesn’t work because textbox.Text is a string and therefore the compiler complains when I try that.
I have then tried to cast textbox.Text to a GUID like this:
command.Parameter[0].value = (Guid)textbox.Text;
No once again the compiler complains cause it wont let you cast a string to a Guid.
Any ideas for me please?
Thanks.

Hi,
what is the easiest method to copy one byte array to another... but not all, only a part. Let say that we have :
byte[] a = new byte[]{1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10};<br />
byte[] b;
how to copy to array b bytes from array a but from offset 2 to 6 only.
I know that can use for loop but maybe there is better method?
Greetings

Take a look at the Array.Copy method.

Application is compiled well but when run i got error like:
Could not load type 'Test.EF' from assembly ... because it contains an object field at offset 1 that is incorrectly aligned or overlapped by a non-object field.

Any idea how fix it?

What do you mean exactly by "dont work"?
Do you get any error message?
What does your code look like now?
