Strange - ON_BN_CLICKED Event gets caught in loop

I added some WinPcap initialization code to a radio-button's OnClick event. Part of my WinPcap initialization process is to display a dialog box with a list of availble network adapters for the user to select from. The ListBox, adapter selection, and OK button all work as intended. However if the user clicks CANCEL and then trys to exit the application the radio-button's OnClick event goes into a loop.....and this happens before the apps destructor even gets called. Anyone care to take a look at my code and see what maybe causing this loop?

Thanks!

<br />
void CAutoSendDlg::OnPcapRadio() <br />
{<br />
<br />
	if(SelectAdapter()){ // Adapter selection & initalization<br />
		<br />
		// Close SocketManager before opening pcap<br />
		if (g_SocketMgrLoaded){<br />
			CAutoSendDlg::CloseSocketManager();<br />
			g_SocketMgrLoaded = FALSE;<br />
		}<br />
		g_PcapLoaded = TRUE;<br />
		m_ProtoTypeCombo.EnableWindow(TRUE);<br />
		m_MsgTypeCombo.EnableWindow(FALSE);<br />
		m_PacketSummary = m_TxMsg.InfoSummary();<br />
	}<br />
	else{	<br />
                // Set radio button back to original selection<br />
		CheckRadioButton(IDC_WINSOCK_RADIO,IDC_PCAP_RADIO,IDC_WINSOCK_RADIO);<br />
	}<br />
}<br />

Wouldn't changing the radio button selection from the click event cause another click event to fire?

Despite everything, the person most likely to be fooling you next is yourself.

Use a regular expression. The choice of regex you use depends entirely on the format of the phone number you want to validate, but there are plenty of samples on t'internet.

The MaskedTextBox also supports phone numbers (I think)

It does, but it's worth using regex validation as well. You should never trust the input into your methods - but you should explicitly test them as well.

Don't know where deployment questions go.
I have a windows forms project and deployment msi project. vs2008.
I can't get the application.exe.config file to overwrite on Vista on an upgrade install. I got my binaries to overinstall by making sure they have a new version in each new upgrade install. Do you know anything about this? It will overwrite the config file on xp.

Well I never worked with ReportViewer but if I had your problem I would start by reading the documentation. I know that seems old fashioned and you new guys don't agree with that approach but I guess the old saying is true: You can't teach an old dog bad practices.

Raising Events in a Composite user control [modified]

Hi there.

I am trying to make a composite user control in VB.net that has a trackbar/slider and a few few buttons to set values on the the slider. The slider itself is a custom user control which is referenced in my project (so is a self contained user control). The buttons work fine, and i can set the value of the slider correctly via the user control. I was unsure about the value changed event on the slider since that is a referenced object. I want the value property of my user control to change when the slider is moved, but I don't know how to link the slider's valuechanged event to this. I hope that i've explained this properly.

many thanks, Peter

hi,
I have a question which how could i call a control (example show image at formA.PictureBox) on from other form?In VB i can call like formA.image.visible = true...But how can i do in c# window form?

Any tips are welcome Wink | ;)

Exactly the same... don't forget to set the modifier of the picturebox to public... This is not a neat way by the way... You can better create a property on FormA

<br />
public bool PictureVisibility<br />
{<br />
    get { return image.Visible; }<br />
    set { image.Visible = value; }<br />
}<br />

.: I love it when a plan comes together :.

You have to use delegates to communicate between forms. CP has an article explaining this. Search for it

Simple answer. Don't. It's a bad design and a really dirty hack.

Consider using a pattern such as the Model View Controller pattern to handle this. Your code will end up being more robust, and won't be so intertwined with variable names.

Coccoon - I'm pleased to see you wanting to take a more indepth look. It's hard to break MVC down to a really simple pattern, but this[^] article is a highly in-depth overview of the process.
