I have an object with a property that is a collection. When I point the PropertyGrid to the object it displays the ellipses for the collection. When I click it I get the generic collectioneditor. Of course the Add put fails because my collection is strongly typed. I need an example of how to create a collectioneditor that will create my collection's objects.

I am trying to implement a way of persisting a collection in a custom settings class. I have successfully created the settings class (inheriting ApplicationSettingsBase) and can save properties using the built-in editors on a PropertyGrid, but my custom implementation of a property grid for collections doesn't persist any of the values I add. Here's my code:
Imports System.Configuration
Imports System.ComponentModel
Imports System.Drawing.Design[code].....
I set a breakpoint on the Set methods for both the BackgroundColor property and the EmailAddresses property. The BackgroundColor property works as it should - it breaks on the Set statement and stores the property correctly. But when I close the custom CollectionEditor dialog, the EmailAddresses "Set" method is never called. How can I get my custom editor to actually save the property once it's done being edited?

I've reviewed the links that were offered and don't find an answer. Neither has a lot of searching helped, probably because I can't think of a reasonably short way to ask the question. I hope that I've at least found the proper forum and category.
In my VB 2010 code, I've defined a structure that has about 30 elements. I want to sum the properties (they are all singles) of two members of the corresponding collection. I understand that I can do something like:
member1.property1=member2.property1+member 3.property1 for the entire set of properties of member2 and member3 to produce a completely defined member1 What I wonder is whether or not there is a way that uses fewer lines of code - I know that I can't do:member1=member2+member3, for example.
I am using a PropertyGrid control to edit my class properties and I am trying to set certain properties read-only depending on other property settings.This is the code of my class:
Imports System.ComponentModel
Imports System.Reflection
Public Class PropertyClass[code].....
This is the code I am using to edit the values:
Dim c As New PropertyClass
PropertyGrid1.SelectedObject = c
The problem is that when I set SomeProperty to True, nothing happens and when I then set it to False again it sets all properties Read-Only.
I searched on the forum / Internet for the solution how a PropetryInfo object (of a Public property) can reveal if it has a Private Protected Setter ... it was all in vain .... all help I found was about how to "Set" value of a public property having a Private Setter.I would like to know if I have a PropertyInfo object of a public property, how would I know if its Setter is Non Public?
I tried, in a exception handling block, where I did a GetValue of the PropertyInfo object and then called SetValue by setting the same value back... but to my surprise it worked well and didn error out.

As the default for visual studio 2010 is set to ".NET Framework 4 Client Profile" and as such that ill be whats available on the clients PCs. So as i'm looking at adding data binding to a listview headercolumns, i was planning on extending the CollectionEditor (if i have to), but the CollectionEditor is only available when you target the full .NET Framework. So therefore i need to create a second solution with that as a target and build my extended CollectionEditor, but how do i get Studio 2010 (not my 'client' project) to reference my extended CollectionEditor?

View 3 RepliesI 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]

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 want to assign an object property by referencing the property dynamically, with a variable name
i.e.
dim propName as string
staticObjectName.propName = 'whatever
I have some nested objects arranged like this:
Process
Persons
Workflows
Tasks
So you have one Process. Then multiple Persons can be added to and multiple WorkFlows can be added Process as well. Multiple Tasks can be added to each WorkFlow but I need a way to tie which Person is doing each task. I basically need a way that for each Person added to the Process it, in it's constructor, assigns a Person.ID property that can then be assigned into each Task's PersonID property...
Dim myProcess as New Process()
Dim myPerson as New Process.Person()
myProcess.AddPerson(myPerson)

Ive recently written a control called a ButtonRow in VB.NET that allows you to dynamically place buttons on it through a typed collection property. The property itself is tagged with the <DesignerSerializationVisibility(DesignerSerializationVisibility.Content)>. However it works really bad. First of all, whenever you add buttons to it and you delete the controlafterwards, the designer code file still have the buttons declared but without the aButtonRow to who's collection they would be added. Secondly, you cannot copy the controlfrom one form to another. It would just copy the ButtonRow object without the buttons

If Me.Child.Equals(value) Then ...
Both gives an error. What should I do to pass these lines? Also in C# it would look like this:

But this time it doesn't give an error.
I am trying to refresh my combobox when an item is selected and added the highlighted code as shown below; [code]Items collection cannot be modified when the DataSource property is set.
View 3 RepliesI have a combobobox on my form, and I use the following code to populate the data from SQL Server:

cbname.ValueMember = "FIDWID"

I'm trying to create a datagrid with auto generating columns. Let's say my Collection is a property named Articles of my viewmodel of type ObservableCollection<ArticleWrapper>.
I bind now the ItemsSource to this collection:
<wpf:DataGrid ItemsSource={Binding Articles} />
The class ArticleWrapper is like this:
[c#]
public class ArticleWrapper
{
public ArticleConfigurationSet ArticleConfigurationSet { get; set; }
public string Description { get; set; }
[Code]....
But now my problem: I want to bind the displayed data to my ArticleConfigurationSet property. But I cannot change my ItemsSource Binding, because the SelectedItem property of the datagrid must be of ArticleWrapper (for command handling).
The datagrid should also look like this:
I have two tables "Person" and "Alias" in a one to many relationship. I have a DGV for "Person" and want to use a combobox for the Aliases. I also have a textbox and a button for the user to type the alias name and click the button to add the alias name to the combobox and update the dataset. I keep getting the "Items collection cannot be modified when the DataSource property is set." Error. But if i use a DGV instead of a combobox for aliases, I have no errors and everything works fine. If I remove the datasource property for the combobox it will not get populated with the data already entered, so how, or can I, set it up where the combobox gets populated when the form loads and able to add items to the combobox????

During a code review I looked at set of repository classes (in vb.net). I am used to seeing these repository classes full of functions that return collections (among other things) of your domain objects. However, this repository had 1 public property and 1 private variable that looked something like this:
Private _item as Collection (of Customer)
Public Item as Collection (of Customer)
Get...
Set...
In the "Get", there is code that gets a the Customers from the DAL and loads it in the private _item. What would the benefits be in using a property (customerRepository.Item) instead of plain old function (customerRepository.GetAllCustomers)? The "Property" way looks odd to me but odd doesn't always mean wrong.

I get the following string expression provided:"ChildObject.FullName" ...where ChildObject is an instance property on the MyObject1 type.ChildObject has a property named "FullName" and I want to sort a collection of type "MyObject1" based on this child properties "FullName" value.
I can do this all day long on properties directly on MyObject1 but I run into 2 challanges when doing it on a child instance and I can't get all the pieces working. The main 2 challanges are:
MyObject1 has a few different child property types so I can't hardcode the type for ChildObject. The string could be of any type.The sort expression is a String and not a known type.Above the value returned from the last line in the expression (if I run the code outsode the OrderBy method, does provide me the 'FullName' information I need. So the code must be close, but it still does not work.
Any ideas on how I can accomplish this? What I am trying to prevent is hardcoding a series of 'If' blocks on the child's type to then hardcode in its type to the sort or OrderBy method.
