I have created a user control in wpf which consists of a textbox and a listview. Now, I want to bind a class object to the list view from the form where I will use this control. So, basically I want to dynamically set the binding for the listview.
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]
I am somewhat new to object oriented programming and am attempting to flatten a Linq object hierarchy by using a shim class.how to initalize a derived class with property values from a base class?I have two objects, a base object with about 100 properties, and a derived object which inherits from the base object and adds a few additional properties beyond those of the base object. My simple constructor creates the derived object, but I am looking for a way to initialize the derived object properties with values from the base object.Right now I am using reflection to iterate over the properties individually and I suspect there may be a better way. The following example shows my shim class constructor for the derived class, and two properties:
newProperty1 - a new string property of the derived class
flattenedProperty2 - a new string property of the derived class, copied from a 2nd-level object of the base class
Code example:
Public Class derivedObj Inherits baseObj Private _newProperty1 As String[code].......
Is this the correct constructor approach to flatten the object hierarchy using a shim class? My second question relates to initialization of properties in the derived class. The constructor above creates the derived object, but what is the best way to initialize the derived object properties with values from the base object? The following code uses reflection to iterate over the properties individually, but I suspect there may be a better way.
Code example:
' property names are in the string array fieldNames
'baseObjQuery is an ienumerable of baseObj
'derivedObjList is a list of derivedObj[code].....
Is there a simple way to initialize values for the properties in the derived object based upon the values of the common properties in the base object?
I have been searching for an answer for this for almost a week now, and I can't seem to find a way to do this. I would think it is a relatively simple thing...
I have a ListView, and one GridViewColumn contains TextBox items. I want to put a Label right underneath the ListView, and fill it with the sum of the items in all the TextBoxes. Whenever someone changes a value in any of the TextBoxes, the sum should change, too.[code]...
I'm using the following code to try and search a listview (I got it from msdn):
Dim atem As New ListViewItem = ListView1.FindItemWithText(TextBox2.Text, True, 0, True)
If atem IsNot Nothing Then ListView1.TopItem = atem End If
Then I got the " Object reference not set to an instance of an object" error highlighting the following line: ListView1.TopItem = atem So then I tried this:
Dim atem As New ListViewItem atem = ListView1.FindItemWithText(TextBox2.Text, True, 0, True)
If atem IsNot Nothing Then ListView1.TopItem = atem End If it still isn't working.
I am trying to bind a New List(Of KeyValuePair(Of String, Integer)) to a listView Currently, I have a code off:
Dim TestList As List(Of KeyValuePair(Of String, Integer)) For Each key in GetTPDesc (Which is a list of strings) TestList.Add(New KeyValuePair(Of String, Integer)(GetTPDesc.ToString, 0))
I have this piece of code that works very well and gives me the path the user's start menu:[code]This obviously uses late binding. Now say I want to do this in C#, or in VB.NET strict mode, neither of which support this kind of syntax with late binding.
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 have a map with a MapItemsControl in my WP7 app that contains pushpins bound to items in a collection of custom classes. The pushpins are bound to properties of the item in the collection via a DataTemplate.When an item is added to or removed from the collection, all pins display correctly, with properties as per bindings, but when just an items' properties are modified, the UI does not update. The bindings just seem to get values from the source item upon loading, but I'd like them to keep the UI elements updated when the source collection items' properties are updated.To illustrate, I'll create a similar example:
Heres a custom class:
Public Class Box Property CurrentColor As Color Property Location As GeoCoordinate End Class
[code]....
Whenever I add or remove items from TempBoxes, the pins all render as they should (e.g. if I specify a color in the collection item, the pin shows the color).Tapping on the item triggers the BoxTouched sub, which causes the item's color to change in the collection, but the UI doesn't change (pin color stays the same).To get the UI to update the color, I have to get it to render the pins again, by adding something like this to BoxTouched:
I am attempting to bind a ObservableCollection to a ListView but when I attempt to debug the program VS2010 is throwing the exception "Window must be the root of the tree. Cannot add Window as a child of Visual"If I was to remove the attempted ItemsSource binding the WPF window opens (obviously without any data in the listView). I have create a Sub in my codebehind that parses an XML file and adds values to the ObservableCollection, I then bind the ListView.I have stepped through the code, and the error appears to be in the XAML as the Sub completes without error, the program errors after the CodeBehind has completed, everytime.
Is is possible to bind two BindingList<> object to the DataGridView? Both the bindinglist objects are of the same type. I tried binding an array of BindingLit<> object to the grid, but this fails.
I have a problem about button click event and data binding.I have described my problem in the mark as following
Public Class Window1 Private Sub Window_Loaded(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.RoutedEventArgs) Handles MyBase.Loaded Dim list_of_name As New List(Of String) list_of_name.Add("John")
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.
am using VS 2005 and VB. However, if I am not using binding navigator, how can I manage the state of an object it is "added" ( or even "deleted") the property setter is only setting the state to "modified". where should i set it to "added" if i were to insert a new object to a database
I'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?
For 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)}}) Next
1) ."SetBinding" doesn't work in object initializer expression. Is there any workaround? 2) Is there any way to add a handler in object initializer expression, for e.g. capturing mousedown events?
I have some classes, BsfciFile and StudyFlashCard. Bsfci is the extension to which I save my set of flashcards in an INI format. I am currently working to transform my code from using Windows API calls to access the INI to using a IniFile class that I found on the internet. I would like the BsfciFile to have a Array of StudyFlashCard objects, but I would like the StudyFlashCard class to use the IniFile class object contained in the BsfciFile class. I can pass the IniFile from the BsfciFile class to the constructor for the StudyFlashCard class, but I want it to modify the same IniFile as the BsfciFile class has later on.
I have yet to find a "nice" way to do two way databinding in .Net. The one thing I don't like for example in the present asp.net two way databinding is doing the binding in the aspx page is no compile time checking, ie:
Class Binder Public Sub BindControl(ctl As Control, objectProperty As ???????) '// Add ctl and objectProperty to a collection End Sub
What I don't know is possible is, how to receive the objectProperty in my example; I want to receive a reference (ie: a pointer) to the property, so later, via this reference, I can either read from or write to the property.
Can this somehow be done with delegates perhaps??
UPDATE: Note, I want to add the control reference to a binding collection, this collection would then be used for binding and unbinding.
I am trying to customize the default binding navigator as i inherit it to my own class and add some buttons to it.every thing gos fine and great as i want it, but the problem is when i change any thing in the AddStandardItems() method class dos not reflect to the existing form which has the same class, i have to remove it from the form and put it again to reflect the changes.This is not good solution, i have more than 30 forms using the same Binding navigator class and it is not possible to remove it form all those forms and put it again.[code]
I am trying to create an list or an array of a class.Here is my "Ingredient" class that I am trying to create a list of:[code]In my "recipe" class, I am want to create a list (or array) and I am drawing a big blank on how to do it. Can anyone point me in the right direction?
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?
it'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.
