UI-Editor For My Custom Direct-x UI?
Oct 9, 2009
I have developed a custom DirectX UI library equipped with everything from buttons to a gridview. I need a screen-layout editor of some sort. It just takes too long to do it by hand, whether through a config file or hard-coding. I could spend a month or two developing a DirectX editing utility, but I don't have a month or two to spend on this. I could possibly justify a week.
Some requirements:
I need to be able to create a new screen I need to place controls such as buttons, textboxes, and containers/windows/etc throughout the screen I need to adjust properties of these controls (Name, Text, Width, Height, Parent Container, etc)
Some of my ideas include:Using VB.NET's form editor... setting up forms and translating the form's control information into game screens.Setting up a web-based editor (seems like this would take more than week... wouldn't it have to be flash based?)Setup a VB.NET win32 editor that allows placement of .NET buttons, containers, etc that correspond to my library's buttons, containers, etc.Is there a best way to handle this?

We have a Windows.Forms.PropertyGrid control that we use to edit application settings. We expose the application settings through a class, giving each setting attributes to control the appearance. An example property definition is shown below:
<DisplayName("Snap Tolerance"), _
Category("Tolerances"), _
Description("The distance (in Points - 1/72"") to be searched for snap points.")> _

I have a problem with a property on a custom property of a class. Here is the actual code for the inherited form
Public Class Form : Inherits System.Windows.Forms.Form
Private _Active_Application As Custom.Classes.Active_Application = New Custom.Classes.Active_Application
<System.ComponentModel.EditorBrowsable(ComponentModel.EditorBrowsableState.Always)> _
Public Property Active_Application() As Custom.Active_Application
[code]....
but when i use a separate class to inherit the above class this property ('Active_Application', not Custom.Classes.Active_Applicaton) is disabled.

In this case, children includes all the Parent elements and all of the Child elements. What's the best way to grab only the direct descendants of <Root>?
Should I write a LINQ query that selects elements where parent = <Root>? Or is there some built-in method I'm missing that can get this for me?
EDIT: I had some confusion between XElement.Elements and XElement.Descendants. As Ruben Bartelink pointed out, XElement.Elements will give me exactly what I was looking for.

I'm trying to implement a grid based RPG style inventory (teaching myself by making a game keeps me focused ) and I have an array of "item" objects. Part of this array is a picture box, which I then lay out in code to display the inventory. how to detect when one of these picture boxes is clicked. However, I'm having a little trouble getting my head around the Directcast command.
When a box is clicked, I would like the function 'boardclicked' to pass over not only the picture box, but the whole object it is associated with it, so I can print these values out the screen (detailing the objects name, value etc) [Code]. As you can see, this passes the picture box element of the object, but I'd like to be able to pass the whole structure, so I can retrieve the other associated values.

What I need to do is link the EXE to a dll that is in another directory out there somewhere. But I don't want to use the assembly namespace. I want to be able to set the direct path to the DLL. So basically this is how its setup
J:\AppBar.exe 'The executable that will need access to the
C:\testdlls\EnvVarsPro.dll 'The DLL that the executable needs to be able to find.
So far I've come to the conclusion that the answer lays somewhere in the app.config file. This is what I've got for code...
<runtime>
<assemblyBinding xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v1">
<!--<probing privatePath="root\res\applib"/>-->
<dependentAssembly>
[code].....
I believe this is setup write. The publicKeyToken is set to null because its not strongly signed and I'm not exactly sure what culture is just yet. But for whatever reason it just doesn't work.You can see a commented line that does work but only if the executable accessing the DLL is in the directory above root. In order to bring organization to my file structure I need to do it with everything kind of put away and not smashed into one directory.

I'm making a VB.NET application with an SQL Server 2005 in the background. Naturally the user can not edit the database directly but will use a number of UI features to be able to add and modify the data.However, there are a few tables that should be easily accessible from the admin interface such as specific information about a vendor. What's the easiest way to let the user edit this data freely? One way would be to use a DataGridView but this could appear complicated to the user, plus I'm not sure exactly when to save the edited data back to the database.
The best way that I can think of is to create custom dialog boxes for adding, deleting and changing the information, but this seems like too much work for such a small feature.

I am trying to use direct sound to play a wav file, so I may animate a picture box while the wav file is playing. I have made a device object and a secondary buffer object and when I run the program I get an error message(see attached image), but after I click continue, the wav file plays and it plays every time I click the play wav button. I am using a test project to work out the bugs before I implement the direct sound in my other project. Below is the the code I am using. Can someone tell me what I am doing wrong? The code needs a form named form1, and a button named xPlayButton.

I want to know if I can directly read or write values in the current process in a Visual Basic 2005 Windows application. Like *(DWORD*)(0x123456) = 1; in C++ will write the value 1 at the address 0x123456. So anyway to do the same in VB using only built in functions and not using ReadProcessMemory and WriteProcessMemory?

I have dealt w/ SQL as back-end many times before, but this local CE database is driving me crazy. I have a dataset (CsDbDataSet) with my table (ServiceMonitor) all set up. I have the dataset configured for CRUD and everything looks just peachy there. The problem is that I cannot write directly to the table and have it show up. I don't get any kind of error, but when I run a SELECT statement on the table, I receive no data. Am I missing something?I am using the direct database access methods used herensert Method I am trying to use:
Dim ta As New CsDbDataSetTableAdapters.ServiceMonitorTableAdapter
ta.InsertRecord("Test", Now.ToString, "TestSvc", "TestSvcVer", "TestSvcStat", "TestNote", "TestProgram")
