I have a class:
[Code]...
Now I can change the TextBoxes or the object: MyObject.Two = 3 ..the object and TextBoxes are updated in two ways. Now I want to update the whole object: MyObject = New TestClass(3, 4) ...but this doesn't update the TextBoxes.
I know how to handle a single objects property changed event very easily. I want to handle a objects property changed event that is part of another object.
Given Object:
[ObjectY = Y]
+ Public WithEvents X As ObjectX
I would like to do something like:
Private Sub XPropertyChanged() Handles Y.X.PropertyChanged
Right now I need to create a object that equals the object inside that object and then handle this variable pointers property changed, but that is just annoying.
I use objectbinding to display client data in a datagridview. The datagridview also contains a counry-column allowing the user to choose the country of the client.Unfortunately, databinding of comboboxcolumn does not seem to work if an own business class is used. Using a simple collection instead works well.Copy the sample code into a new windows project and the programm runs fine. Then comment and uncomment the two lines with "XXX" and the code will fail. Why and does anybody know how to make the sample code work by using the business object class(variable named "newClientListVariable" in the sample)? [code]
View 3 RepliesThis starts with an object being added to a collection with: CommonArgs.Add(ObjName, Me)
ObjName is a string, call it "Obj1". Me is an instance of a class inheriting from UserControl. Call it "Class1".
Now, to check the value assigned to Obj1, the vendor has the
Dim Obj As Object = CommonArgs(ObjName)
Dim Info As System.Reflection.FieldInfo = Obj.GetType().GetField(ObjName, System.Reflection.BindingFlags.Public Or System.Reflection.BindingFlags.Instance Or System.Reflection.BindingFlags.IgnoreCase)
Obj is the Class1 object added to CommonArgs.
When I run this in my test app, Info is Nothing-but when I run it in the vendor's app Info is an Enumerated type. Why?
I've found a little more info, but it's still a mystery to me-and so far it appears to be a mystery to everybody else, too.
First, I noticed that I didn't mention that the Collection is a Hashtable. I don't know if that would make a difference, but it is something I forgot to mention.
Second, there's a 'regular' variable named ObjName that contains the value being returned by Info. My understanding is that there's no connection between these, e.g. Dim X as Integer = 1 doesn't change the type or value of the object of CommonArgs("X"). But that's what appears to be happening.
Any suggestion?

I've written a custom class MyClass and marked it with the <Serializable()> attribute. I have a set of binary files on my hard drive that I've serialized using BinaryFormatter that came from instances of MyClass.
I've recently changed the structure of MyClass slightly (added some properties, deleted some properties, changed a few methods, etc).
What happens when I try to deserialize the existing objects to this changed class using the code below? I've tried it and not had an error thrown or anything - but surely it can't deserialize properly when the class has changed? Is there a way I can get some useful information out of the serialized files even though I've updated the class?
Here's the code I'm using to do the serialization:
Public Sub serializeObject(ByVal obj As Object, ByVal outFilename As String)

Is it possible to bind a button to an object? I have a situation where I create lots of buttons dynamically and add them to a form, each button corresponds to a record in a database table, I want the button to hold all the info in the record without the need to search for the data each time I press it. I've already have the info in the tag property as a delimited string, but the process of extracting the info from the string is not efficient. if I add one new value I have to add the code to extract that info using string manipulation. I would rather have an object that represents the record so I can access each value directly.

View 6 RepliesI've read (or the only book that covers ado 3.5) is Murach ADO 3.5 and throughout the book, the author recommends using object binding so that's what I've been doing. However, I had a chance to look at all the codes for our applications at work, and only datatables are used.Was curious as to the difference/pros and cons between binding to an object, and binding to a table. I guess my real question is which one should I be using, datatable or object binding? Is there a definite answer or does it depends on the situation and what I want to do?
View 3 RepliesFor adding some images to a WrapPanel, I'm trying to iterate through a collection. My TileCollection contains instances of a Tile class which has a ImageSource property. I've got it by doing all the stuff step by step - Create a new image 1, assign all the properties, create a bew binding 1, assign binding 1 to image 1, add image 1 to the panel, proceed with image 2, ... tons of code I want to shorten now. Here is what I've got so far:
For Each tile As Tile In TileCollection
MainPanel.Children.Add(New Image With {.Width = 80, .Height = 80, .Margin = New Thickness(10), .SetBinding = New Binding With {.Source = tile, Path = New PropertyPath("ImageSource"), .Mode = BindingMode.Default, .UpdateSourceTrigger = UpdateSourceTrigger.PropertyChanged)}})

I'm new to programming and am trying to learn how to developed data driven application and was wondering which method is recommended? I know there are some debates out there but most of the books I have recommend using object binding, but it doesn't offer any concrete information on how to implement it. I went to MSDN and most, if not all, the documentations are on dataset. So I guess my questions is, object vs dataset, which do you use?
View 9 Repliesit's about object binding, yes it's just a simple binding. but i don't know why it won't work.for summary, i will write about what i am doing:
1. i have one solution, and have two project in it. WaitressDataWin and WaitressDataObject
2. inside WaitressDataWin, i have 'waitressdata.vb' . this is my simple form , there are some basic textbox (waitress name, address, phone)
3. inside WaitressDataObject, i have 'waitressDataObj.vb' is where i put my object class, i have WaitressName property, WaitressAddress, and Phone.one of my property is like this, others are same except the name of course.
Private _WaitressName As String
''' <summary>
''' Gets or sets the Waitress Name[code]....
4. i create data source , that is object data source. i add reference so i can add my second project which is WaitressDataObject and set the WaitressDataObj as the data source.now i have datasource with three properties (WaitressName, WaitressAddress, Phone)
5. I bind my textbox, by dragging the WaitressName (in datasource) to my waitressname textbox .. so on to all my properties.., i also get bindingsourcecomponent, WaitressDataObjectBindingSource
6. then I put this code to my form load :
dim wdm = new WaitressDataObj
Me.WaitressDataObjectBindingSource.DataSource = wdm
7. done, it should've been worked, but it didn't , i don't know why.. , every time i fill one of my textbox, the properties didn't set the value, i put breakpoint in the 'set' part of all my properties but it never breaks anyway.. (the 'get' part is good, it read my property value when i load the form). so i just had problem in my 'SET' Part.
8. I think i had checked on my variable (word, case sensitive,etc), no problem.
Using VB 2005. I am attempting Object Binding, with a validation class that handles the validation at the object properties. But, it is working fine for strings only. For any numbers and dates fields on the form, if I simply enter and leave the text box without entering any data, the validation doesn't kick in. It does only when the text box is dirty (an empty string ?), if I enter something and erase it (backspace), the errorprovider is not letting go unless I fill in something that conforms to the data type of the text box and says the input is not in the correct format / type. And at this point, the object property is yet to be assigned any value, and hence my validation class is yet to activate and do its job.
View 14 RepliesI'm having trouble with some Silverlight functionality. My goal is to get some data from the database and display it in my grid. Sounds simple, however, there are 7 columns that are always going to be there.
The rest of the columns depends on the account. There could be 2 (called Actions) associated with a certain account, compared to another account that could have 5, and the action names can be completely different.
I have successfully been able to return a list of all the possible actions for the given account, and then adding the columns to the grid in the code bihind(VB), and I can bind my data to the grid for all the columns that are already known. The way I store the item's actions, is a Property of type List. My problem is finding a way to iterate through the actions list of the Item object in order to bind those actions to the grid.
Custom Object Master-Detail Data Binding
View 2 RepliesVB 2008 .NET 3.5. I have a custom "Shipment" object that contains a list of "ShippingRate" objects. This list of "ShippingRates" is accessible through a property "Shipment.PossibleShippingRates." That property simply returns a copy of the list of "ShippingRate" for that particular Shipment.
My UI layer receives a list of "Shipment" objects from the BLL. This list is databound to a datagridview, and shows details relevant to the Shipment such as Shipping Address, etc.
I want to bind the "Shipment.PossibleShippingRates" property to a combobox, such that when the user changes the grid row, the combobox reflects the "PossibleShippingRates" for that "Shipment."
In addition, I need a way to store the "ShippingRate" they selected from the combobox for later use.
I have tried a few ideas, but none of them work properly.
I changed my Username on my computer from i.e. "xxxxxx x xxxxx" to "Dennis"

The file "VSProjectApplication.ico" is in 'C:UsersDennisAppDataRoamingMicrosoftVBExpress9.0'
Somewhere in the VB2008 "configuration" files I believe that I need to manually change the old path to the new path.
I found the old path in the ".suo" file. The ".suo" file is not a text file. How can I edit the .suo file, save it so that it will work?
With the DataGridView I'm used to just populate them with a list of some object, using the DataSource property. Now I want to just display properties from a single object, and I'm a bit confused on how to do it.. The object is updated through an API event, and I want to select some of the properties for displaying in the DataGridView, to look like this:.where "ValueX" is the name of the properties.Now, what would be my options for binding this to the DataGridView, such that property changes are automatically updated. Since an update also must invoke the control, does that mean I must reassign all bindings, or what logic is necessary in this case?
should I bind to an array, arrayList, stringList, dataTable etc? I guess I'm not sure which type of source will allow binding. Or if I should perhaps build the columns and cells of the grid and populate them "one-by-one" to the properties of the object?
on my Form I have a DataViewGrid and some textboxes with a save button (they are filled with additional data of the selected row).Save is disabled first, when I change something in the textboxes the save button is enabled.When the user changes a gow in the grid, I want to ask before changing the grid row, if he wants to save (if the button is enabled).I am using RowEnter but this is too late, then the selected row already changed (and my textboxes already got new data)...What event can I use to ask if I should save stuff before the user changes a row?Something like BeforeRowChanging with a chance to cancel changing the row?
View 2 RepliesI need to bind a textblock.text property to a single element in an observable collection, or array element, and have the text update using the INotifyPropertyChanged or INotifyCollectionChanged, whichever is best.
Most examples describe ways to bind listboxes or other list views to entire collections, but my application needs to update several textblocks on a screen depending on notification of a change in one or more elements of an array.
textblock1.Text = MyArray(0)...
textblock2.Text = MyArray(1)...
textblock3.Text = MyArray(2)...
textblock4.Text = MyArray(3)...
Is it possible to bind a single textblock to a single array element? Is it possible to get notification of the proper type that will update one or more of the textblocks if any assigned element changes?
Im doing my first project with WinForms, and Im trying to get the DataBinding working. Theres no database in my project, but I'd like to bind some of the TextBoxes to objects' properties. In the other section of this forum (here) I found this line of C# code which does it: textBox2.DataBindings.Add(new Binding("Text", this.myPerson, "LastName"));
my question is can data binding to object properties be set up during design time (without writing code)? If so, how? P.S. I know how I would set up this binding if in WPF, but I'm forced to use WinForms.
is there any way that i could link/bind multiple binding source to only one binding source navigator?

The expected result was that "OneString" would appear next to "One" and "TwoString" next to "Two" in the running window.
The question is: Why didn't this work? What will work instead? If I put bindings in a DataTemplate, it works. Blend, with its sample data stuff, implied that this should work, but it doesn't.
