VS 2010 Add A Property To The Default ListBox Control?
Jun 23, 2010
I have been trying to create a custom control based on the ListBox called FileListBox. I followed Microsoft's walkthrough but am having some trouble.
What I want is to add another property to the ListBox called SafeItems which is an ObjectCollection of strings (like the Items property). I will use the Items property to store a collection of Filenames as strings and I would like to store the corresponding SafeFilenames in the SafeItems collection.
This is what I've tried:
FileListBox.Designer.vb
<Global.Microsoft.VisualBasic.CompilerServices.DesignerGenerated()> _
Partial Class FileListBox
Inherits System.Windows.Forms.ListBox
[Code].....

I am inheriting my own DataGridView (say MyDataGridView) from the standard DataGridView control. What I want is that certain properties of MyDataGridView should have a different default value than what its base have. For example, AllowUserToAddRows, AllowUserToDeleteRows, AllowUserToResizeRows properties should have the default values of False; so that when I drag MyDataGridView into a form in the IDE, the default values shown in the properties grid should be False. Later on, if I want to change them to True from the grid, they will be set accordingly.

I am creating a customised version of the ListView control and there are several of the properties that a ListView has that I would like to be set to a different value to the ListView default when a user goes to use my user control.
From what I've found there seems to be a number of people suggesting just set them in the constructor, but to the best of my knowledge that would just mean that the user would not be able to change the properties in the PropertyGrid in the VS IDE.I assume this is probably something extremely simple that I have overlooked.

I created a Custom Class and Implemented a Type Converter for it. I used this Custom Class as a new property of a Custom Control.Everything is fine at design time. I can set the values of this property but at run-time the values i entered resets back to the initial declaration i made.

If we say blue is the default colour of the Backcolor property I understand it as if you don't specify a colour for Backcolor blue will be its colour. But I could not make sense of default property of a class in the context of building a custom user control. After calling an instance of a class we have to either call one of its members or assign an other object for it. Therefore why should there be a default property?

I believe that the correct way to give a property a default value is to use the Default Attribute on the Property.[code]In the property window, the value that's displayed in a grid's property bag when it's newly dropped onto a form is False, not True. It does recognise that the default value should be True because it shows the value as bolded and then de-bolds it when we manualy set it to true - but it doesn't respect the default as the initial value. Is there any way of getting the property bag to respect the default value?

I am having difficulty getting some form control property bindings to work correctly. Below is the code I am using-
[Code]...
The ZedGraphControl is just a GraphPane, and the TolSelectBtn is just a button. Problem is, the ZedGraph control binding works properly, but the binding to the button does not (both controls' Visible properties are set to False in the design window). Can a ToolStripMenuItem only handle one data binding? Or is there something else I should be looking for?

this questions has be answered partially, but I can't find any full tutorial for this problem.I created my own user control (an advanced list with columns). Each column has different attributes like width, colour and text.I want to able to add this user control onto a form and select/edit the different attributes of each column. Hence, for each column in my user control (these columns are created beforehand, no columns can be added or removed from it) there should be a property in the property-menu. Each of these column-properties should be expanded (like the normal size-property in most default vb-controls that can be expanded with the little plus to show the width and height individually.What i mean by this, is: In the property-menu there should be attributes like Column1, Column2, Column3. Each of these attributes should be expanded to show the attributes like width or colour.
Currently I have different properties for different values of the same column, like Column1Wodth, Column1Colour, etc, but I want to group this under one value Column1.I think this is quite an easy solution, but forgive me, I spent more than 4 hours on google, but couldn't find a proper solution.

I'm writing a custom control and I want to add a "MessageText" property of type String:
<Browsable(True),
DefaultValue(""),
Category("CustomControls"),
[code]....
The MessageText property is a multiline text, and the user must be able to set the text using the designer. The problem is that the designer doesn't allow to enter a newline directly for a string property.I want the same behaviour as the system TextBox's Text property, where you can click on the down arrow and write lines in the small text-editor that appears:How do I do that?

I have a combobox which contains a sample of names selected from a table.Currently the default name displayed in the box is the 1st name found in the table. What I would like to do is display the name of the person who is doing the selection as the default. The name is stored in a public variable 'PubName' and I do not want the user to be able to type into the combobox themselves.Is this possible?

I'd like to integrate Webkit.NET into a VB project, but I'm not having any luck so far. The Webkit.NET tutorial page gives a demonstration in C#, so I assume that it's possible to use this in VB.NET as well? [URL]
I added the control to the project successfully, but since I'm not familiar with C#, I haven't been able to convert the code successfully (even after running the code through a few different online C# to VB.NET converters). So... has anyone gotten Webkit.NET (or any Webkit-based browser) to work in VB.NET? Or am I just dreaming? I would love to be able to use the default .NET WebBrowser control for this project, but this project requires doing a few things that the IE browser is not capable of (but Webkit can do it easily).

For a given class, with a default property of list, you can access an instance object in the list by doing myClass.defProperty("key"). You can also achieve the same results by typing myClass.defProperty!Key.
I have been told that using the parenthesis and quotes is faster for the way the runtime accesses the Property, but I'd like to understand what is the difference and how do each work...
I understand C# has a similar behavior by replacing the parenthesis with square brackets.

Is there anyway to have a class that can return a default type without specifying the property.
If I had a class that had a few properties and one property returned a string value and others returned additional types, could I do the following?
Dim StudentGrade as new StudentGradeClass
'call and get default property
Dim CurrentGrade as string=StudentGrade
'instead of this
Dim CurrentGrade as string=StudentGrade.Current
The reason I am asking this is when I have classes that have other classes as properties and would like to just get a default return value,.

I'm attempting the following:Default Public Property Data(Of dataType)(ByVal key As String) As dataType
Get
Return DirectCast(values.Item(key), dataType)
End Get
Set(ByVal value As dataType)
values.Item(key) = value
End Set
End Property
[Code]...
It made more sense to make it a property, and it would be the default property of the class. The data type can not be specified on instantiation of the class, because it can contain multiple objects of different data types.

The following XAML produces an AmbiguousMatchException. The DataContext for myText is a DataTable consisting of > 1 row which contains a DataColumn named "test":
<TextBox Name="myText" Text="{Binding Path=Rows[0].Item[test]}"/>
When I modify the binding path syntax to the below example, the binding works as expected:
<TextBox Name="myText" Text="{Binding Path=Rows[0][test]}"/>
Given that the name of the DataTable is "myData", both of the following lines of code reference the contents of the column "test" on row 0:
myData.Rows(0)("test")
myData.Rows(0).Item("test")
Why doesn't the syntax that explicitly names the Item property appear to work in a binding scenario?

I am making a new class that requires a lot of input information. Some of the properties need to be set to a default value, however I do not want to hard code them into the class.
What do you think would be the most efficient way to populate these properties?
I've been thinking of making a new class to hold all the default props and pass them as one object into the new class as a single argument but it seems kind of clunky.

I use the following line of code within a single method to explicitly check and trust an SSL cert from the following host: MyTrustedCompany.com:
ServicePointManager.ServerCertificateValidationCallback = Function(obj As [Object], certificate As X509Certificate, chain As X509Chain, errors As SslPolicyErrors) (certificate.Subject.Contains("CN=MyTrustedCompany.com"))
No problem with the code -> works perfectly 100%.
The problem is, it is too far reaching. I thought its scope would only be within the method I decalred it, but apparently it is a Shared property on the 'ServicePointManager' object, and must then persist for the entire application, which I do not want.
The problem is later I am calling web services of mine, etc and getting the "Could not establish a trust relationship..." exception. This is because in the line of code above I check for the host name of an SSL cert specefic to that method. I quickly tested Returning 'True' from the callback so all certs would be trusted instead of checking for a specefic name (i.e. MyTrustedCompany) and subsiquent requests worked. This is how I know this callback assignment reaches father than that single method. Sure I could extend the callback to include all other certitificate names, but what I would rather do is set the 'ServerCertificateValidationCallback' back to its default behavior. Like the pseudo code below:
ServicePointManager.ServerCertificateValidationCallback = Nothing 'Default checking behavior
How do I remove the custom validation and set it back to its default behavior?
