C# - Get The Item Type From A BindingSource?
Jun 14, 2010
I would like to get the Type of item that a BindingSource is hooked up to or configured for. The BindingSource.DataSource property can be set to an object, list, or type. If it is a Type, it obviously does not have a bound item yet, but I would still like to get the Type. For a List, I need the item Type, not the list type.
I currently have a custom list type for business objects that implement an IListItemType interface, that I created to solve this problem a while back. I would now like to get this working in a more generic fashion so that it will work with any list.
I've looked through the API docs for for a good way to do this, but so far I have not had any luck. Am I missing something or is this just something I can not or should not be doing?

I've got a databound query in my application which is querying the "Customers" table in our database.I've created this directly from the ComboBox's datasource creator in the Design view.Various bits of code created in the designer include:
Me.CustomerBindingSource.DataSource = Me.CustomerDataSet
Me.ComboBox_Customers.DataSource = Me.CustomerBindingSource
What I've done in the first stage of developing this feature is to show my users a ComboBox showing a specific subset of the customer list by applying a filter to the BindingSource.
Me.CustomerBindingSource.Filter = "someColumn = 3"
What I want to do on a second pass is to allow the users to type a specific bit of information into a textbox and check whether it appears in Me.CustomerDataSet like so:
Dim x As IEnumerable(Of CustomerDataSet.customerRow) = From cust In Me.CustomerDataSet.customer Where cust.custno.Trim = "test"
If x.Count <> 0 Then
At this point, I have a customerRow object. I want to check whether this customerRow object appears in the list presented to users in Me.ComboBox_Customers via the filtered Me.CustomerBindingSource. Me.CustomerBindingSource does not (directly) contain customerRow objects, it contains Object objects.How do I find out whether Me.CustomerBindingSource contains the customerRow object at whatever lower level?Also Once I've determined that Me.CustomerBindingSource contains the item, how do I select that entry in the ComboBox?

I've got a BindingSource for a DataSet. I'm fairly new to this whole binding business and databases, and it took me hours to figure out how to use BindingSource to get to an item, because the Row method was not included in the autocomplete. Not to confuse anyone, here's some sample code:[code]The code runs perfectly and does exactly what I want. My problem is the following: When I've typed in source.Item(0)., autocomplete does not display Row in the list. Is this perhaps not the best way to do what I'm doing? Is there a reason it's hidden? Is this a good coding practice to do so? The fact that is wasn't there took me lots of time Googling, so I'm trying to figure out whether it's a Visual Studio glitch or my own.

I have a datagridview that is bound to a list object of a custom type via a BindingSource. From everything I've read, I should be able to click the column headers and the rows sort, This doesn't happen for me. Sortmode is set to automatic and the column headers aren't set to be used for selection so it should work.
I know that I could sort progamatticly but that seems a little bit of a waste given that I should just be able to do it by default.

I'm trying to do this in an item_databound event of a datagrid in asp.net
Dim EntType As EmployeeEntity = DirectCast(e.Item.DataItem, EmployeeEntity )
but I encounter the error
Cannot convert to class EmployeeEntity
The EmployeeEntity class has the same members as the items in e.Item.DataItem's DataRowView items. so how else do i cast the contents, without having to actually set each property of EemployeeEnity individually, from the e.Item.DataItem ?

I am trying to write a function that has an object parameter. That object will always be an BindingList. That BindingList will be of some unknown (at design Time) class. I think I've figured out how to get the type of the collection object, but now here the tricky part. I'm trying to create a function that can handle any type of collection and be able to return an item from that collection. I need to create a new object of that type and return it from the function.

I am using VB .NET 1.1 and wanted to make sure if inside a key value pair class "Dates" (collection type) a key by name "TerminationDate" exists.
If Not Dates.Item("TerminationDate") Is Nothing Then
'Do x y z'
End if
But this is throwing an exception: Argument Index is not a valid value.

I have a piece of code that does an action to any collection that implements generic.IList<T>However to do this it needs to get the type <T> of the generic list.e.g. If I pass in a variable of type Generic.List(Form) then in my code I need to get the fact that the list is made of Forms. To add complexity the list may be empty (So you can't just look at Item(0).GetType)

1. I need to be able to store the STR MG INT and SPD somewhere when they create an item and make sure it is assigned to that item, and since I allow them to create unlimited item, I need this way to be dynamic (as in create variables as needed).
2. I need to find some way to make sure the user has selected an item name in the treeview (not type or main node).For example, they need to click Hockey Mask and then click the equip item button for it to work?

I have a list box on the form which functions as a copy/paste. When you copy something, it is automatically added to the list box as a "clipboard helper". Here is the problem,however: if the text is more than 1 line, the list box does not show all the text.It ends up looking messy.So getting back to my question, is it possible to make the list box item height for an item depending on the amount of lines that item contains?This is a one line sentence in the list box and should take up one line.This is a multi line sentence in the list box and should take up two lines for item height.

Is it possible to compare 2 dataitems and then display the result depending on the 2 values using if eval at run time?I have a ListView with databound controls. 1 is RedemptionChoice and the 2 is CashBack.When 1 reads "0" and 2 reads > 0.00 the output should read AUTO I have read many comments online and most point to create a new function within code behind but have found it impossible to implement on my own.I tried this as a test on the actual page:
<%# If(Eval("CashBackRedemptionChoice").Equals("0") & Eval("[CashBack]").Equals("0.00"), "Auto Cashback"))%>
2 needs to be greater than 0.00 for AUTO to be displayed. Hence I know this would not work. Just trying to give an example of what I would like.

I'm having some difficulty with a sorted & grouped listbox in WPF vb.net 3.5 that has an items source bound to an ObservableCollection.
What I want to be able to do is to retrieve a piece of data from the ObservableCollection items source depending on what item in the listbox the user has selected.I've almost got it working but because the listbox is sorted it does not match the index of the items source.
[code]...
As I previously mentioned, because the lstBox is sorted and also grouped the index's don't match up.Does anyone know how I can get the correct information I want from the List Source depending on the selected item in the list box?

Combobox1.Items.Add(Proc.MainWindowTitle)
to populate a combo box with the list of current process windows, however for every process that doesnt have a main window title there is a blank space, is there a way that I could tell it to not insert the item if it's mainwindowtitle field is blank?

How someone would select an item from a list box and click a button and have that item go into another listbox with it's price? I seem to be stuck on this part.
Here's my code:

Ok, so I have a listview on one form, and when a button is pressed it opens up a new form with the contents of the selected listview item and it's subitems in a series of textboxes. The user can then change the data in the textboxes and either press save to make the changes or cancel to close the window. What command would I use to change the selected listview item and subitems to whatever is in the boxes?
this is the code that populates the boxes:
Private Sub Form_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
Dim appeditcontents As String = main.passlist.SelectedItems(0).ToString

I have a BindingSource bound to a DataTable.
I use the BS Filter and would like to iterate the filtered dataset of the DataTable using the Bindingsource.
I know I can do a MoveFirst and the MoveNext and each time using the BS.Position get the correct row in the underlying DataTable. But how do I know when the sets ends? I'm sure there must be such a property, but what is it?
