VS 2008 How To Create Own Custom Property That Is An Object
Oct 16, 2011
how to create my own custom property that is an object but that allows a string to be passed in to the property grid to configure it.For example, with a font type property you can type "Microsoft Sans Serif, 18pt" into the property grid and it will create the appropriate font structure and fill it.
I have seen it somewhere ages ago but cannot find the link... I want to create a custom drop-down "property page" like the one that pops out when you click on the down arrow in the property grid to set the anchoring.
I'm trying to create an export Excel/CSV function that will iterate through a custom object and first output the property names and then output the values. I want to use reflection only where necessary so I'm attempting to save the property names when I output the headers and then reuse them to print the values. Is this possible? I'm a little weary of using reflection in a loop but is there a better way?
I have created a little demo application which is able to create a meeting request by using the Exchange WebService (EWS). I would also like to add some custom properties to this item but up to now I have only found examples which use the Exchange Managed API, which I won't use. There must be a way to create these properties by only using EWS... Does anybody know how and can provide a little code example?
I want to create a custom control (let say textbox), after build, when I place that custom control on a form, all the properties for the default textbox are available.
1- How to Hide them and only show the wanted property and method?
2- Is there a Wizard or custom tool for creating custom control or I had to do every thing by coding?
I have a Picturebox, where the .Tag property is holding a path to a file. But I would also like to have something like a .Tag2 property that could hold another file... I'm guessing this is possible to achive, but I have been struggling with this for quite some time now, and I really don't how I to do this... I can't seem to any useful information on the net either...
I've created a custom user control that has several properties. One specifies which database I want the control to access. I want to be able to present the user of the control a drop down from which he can select which database the control will interact with. How do I get the dropdown to work? I can get default values, but have yet to figure out how to get the selectable list.
Is it possible to create a user control with a list of custom class type property? If it is, how can I? The issue is that, in designer mode the property is not displayed in property window. I can add the list on markup but when i switch to the designer mode it gives an error which is 'The user control does not have a public property named BookList'.
Basically I have created an object that has a graphicspath as one of its properties... and i want to serialize it...
I was basically wondering if i could somehow automate the serializing of the GraphicsPath to another object (for the purposes of serializing since the graphicspath cannot be natively serialized)
eg serialize it to a list of the following class:
vb <Serializable()> _ Public Class sPath Public PathPoints() As PointF
how do i change the property of a created object in the timer event? In other words i have a button that creates a panel for me, in a time event i want to change the created panels to a different backcolor, how would i do this?
I have an ASPX Custom Control which is supposed to load it's properties into an internal collection (defined with PersistenceMode.InnerProperty). Here's the ASPX
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.
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.
I have created a custom logonui.exe in VB.NET and I know how to make it replace the existing logonui.exe, but I am having trouble with the functions, such as shutdown, restart and log in. I don't need to get the list of users, because there is only one user account on the system and it is not password protected. I just need it to log in to the account when the user clicks a button and to be able to shutdown w
on a Windows Form, an object myObject is bound to myObjectDataBindingSource like this:myObjectDataBindingSource .DatSource = myObject on the form, i have a check box bound to the property: chkProp1 for example of the object: myObjectDataBindingSource In the code when the checkbox is clicked, I need to go in code and change another text property of the object txtProper2 for example like this:
Private Sub chkProp1_CheckedChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles chkProp1.CheckedChanged
I am currently learning VB.net but for a project I need to create and array and pass it using a property. The data to be passed will be a train's destination, the time its due and the expected time of the train. I was wondering if someone could simplly explain how to first produce an array and then show how to pass it to a custom control
I want to use SetPropertyItem to add a new property to an image ...
how can i create a new System.Drawing.Imaging.PropertyItem without first reading a property from an image and changing its values? as this seems somewhat counter-productive
Well, the title pretty much says it all. I have a user control that is a a collection of six label controls. three are used as visual color indicators, and the other three are used as the corresponding value for each color indicator. (It's sort of like a legend key on a chart or map.) I have created a custom class to store the three values, and the associated methods to interact with the values. (I can probably use a structure instead of a class, but right now, I don't want to discuss that.) My problem, is that I want to show my user control inside a cell of a DataGridView. I've looked at the examples that create a MaskedTextBox DataGridViewCell, but I can't seem to get it to work. Here is what I have:
I have created a custom user control (JCUserControl), and I am using it in the Main Window. And my Main Window has no codebehind. I have this in the JCUserControl codebehind:
Private Sub ImmediateRadioButton_Checked(sender As System.Object, e As System.Windows.RoutedEventArgs) Handles ImmediateRadioButton.Checked SomeTextBox.IsEnabled = False End Sub
When I run it, it fails with the NullReferenceException. If I comment out the SomeTextBox.IsEnabled = false, it runs without any problems.
Edit: Found out that I could just check if the radio buttons are loaded before doing whatever I want to do.
Private Sub ImmediateRadioButton_Checked(sender As System.Object, e As System.Windows.RoutedEventArgs) Handles ImmediateRadioButton.Checked If ImmediateRadioButton.IsLoaded Then SomeTextBox.IsEnabled = False End If End Sub
I have a listbox of a object called Account, which has 2 fields, password, and username. How can I compare a New Account to all the accounts in the list and see if the password matches?
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.
This is what I would like to achieve:To create a custom messagebox, with varying number of buttons with custom .Text descriptions, and other features. I intended to have a property array that would be redim-ed and have values (.Text values) set by the calling class:
