C# - Requirments For ISupportInitialize Code To Be Serialized In InitializeComponent?
Apr 26, 2010
I need to add some code to the EndInit method of a PictureBox control but unfortunately its private and, from what I can gather, I can't shadow it and call base - at least not in VB.Net.What I can do is add a dummy property to my picture box class. The type of the dummy property is simply a class that just implements ISupportInitialize. However, that doesn't work, I need the dummy class to inherit from Control.Is that the minimum requirement?

I have made changes to the windows form name from "form1" to "applicant_name" after that it shows this error The designer cannot process the code at line 249: Me.name = "applicant_name" The code within the method 'InitializeComponent' is generated by the designer and should not be manually modified. Please remove any changes and try opening the designer again.when i comment it its started working fine can any one suggest me wat to do and why it is comming

For fun I decided to make a password changer tool. The app pulls the local admin account from the registry so I can change it. This is nice because I don't have to select the account from the list, it just pulls it from the registry. So Here is my issues. I want to be able to have the code verify the password meets complexity requirements before it is changed. For example I don't want to be able to put any old password in like "password". I have searched and searched but to no avail. I am not asking for someone to write the code fro me

I'm converting a VB6 forms application to operate in VB2010. When initialising the form using VB2010 I've made use of the New() event with a call to InitializeComponent(), as suggested by the VB2010 Express debug facility. However, when InitializeComponent() is invoked I've noticed that the system runs the TextChanged events for some, but not all, of the components in the form.Can anyone explain what the InitializeComponent() call actually does? and why certain form events are executed whilst others are not?

I have some conditionals in my InitializeComponent which affect the layout based on some variables. Unfortunately, it seems like whenever I rebuild my application, this code is reverted back to its previous state. Is this code being regenerated based on the Designer interface? Is there a way to prevent it from doing this?

I am experiencing some trouble with the autogenerated initializecomponent function. Visual Studio insists on initializing a variable like the following, when I drag a usercontrol onto a form:
Dim HierarchyTreeNode1 As NewDelfiLib.HierarchyTreeNode = CType(New System.Windows.Forms.TreeNode(""), ND.HierarchyTreeNode)

I have a windows form and I created couple user controls, these UserControls are added on the form dynamically, everything works normally,
Just wondering where I should put the coding, should it be inside Form Load Event or after InitializeComponent() call?

Alright so i have a form with alot (ALOT) of controls...many tabs, many listviews, many comboboxes and textboxes, all of which have values which i saveload using a class i made for saving and loading these values from a file.
Loading these values is pretty slow after the form loads. Takes around 3 seconds (i had to create a splashscreen and made it look decent, but it's still not a nice thing to have)
Then today i decided to try something. I opened the designer to initialize component, and i called the LoaderSub (that loads the values for the controls from a file) within initialize component, in a location after all the properties are set but before all the .resumelayout and .performlayout are called. Lo' and behold the form loaded in less than half a second, with the values and all.
However, now everytime i make a change to the form in design view, or even add a handler to some control in code view, the designer redraws and the auto generated code takes out my code from initializecomponent.
I did the googling, and all the results i found for similar cases issues were cases where the person asking the question im going to ask, the answer is "Didn't you read the part that says DO NOT MODIFY?"
Still, as a last attempt, I ask here: is there any way to modify initializecomponent without losing my changes? I just need to call LoaderSub before the layout resumes...if i call it before initialize component, i get null reference exceptions. And if i call it right after initialize component, loading is very slow.

In C# Windows Forms, a user control's InitializeComponent is called from the form's/control's constructor. When I create same scenario in VB.NET I don't get a constructor, and I can't locate a place where InitializeComponent is called.I need to call my code between InitializeComponent and when the control's Load event is raised, preferably still in the control's constructor. How do I do this in VB.NET?

The code generator creates code with references to a component I am using, before it's dependent components (datasets) are initalized. Although I can correct this by editing the form.designer.vb file, everytime I make a change on the form the code is re-generated in the wrong order. Where does VS2008 store information about the order of the components for code generation.
This Runs:

'AppointmentBindingSource
'
Me.AppointmentBindingSource.DataMember = "appointment"

To create splash screen before InitializeComponent, the WithEvents statement for the BackgroundWorker component needs to be moved from the Form's Designer.vb file into the constructor as indicated in the first commented lines of the constructor below.

In .NET (at least <=2) there's a problem serializing objects that raise events when those events are handled by a non-serializable object (like a Windows Form).Because of the way VB.NET implements events, when you serialize an object, its events get serialized too (because events are actually implemented using hidden multicast delegate fields). A side effect of this is that any object which handles events raised by the object being serialized will be considered part of the object graph and will be serialized too.
Some workarounds could be found, implementing custom serialization or using delegates instead of events:[URL]..

I'm building a simple game which involves many pictureboxes with which the player may collide. For instance, I'd have a hundred bricks spread throughout the level. In an old version of pacman I built in VB6 (and upgraded to .net), I implemented this like so: [Code]
As I understood, the brick(I) array exists thanks to the naming of the bricks, which ranges from _brick_0 to _brick_217 (as nowhere in the project a brick array is declared implicitly, at least not that I could find). I'd like to do the same in my current project, but even when I duplicate an existing brick it automatically renames it to "PictureBox123" instead of _ExistingName_NextID.
I saw a method of declaring a picturebox array and adding the bricks one by one, but since I have so many pictures this would best be avoided (especially due to the fact that not all pictures are bricks, so I cant just loop through every picture in the form). In short, my question is: How do I duplicate pictureboxes so that they'd be serialized in a way vb.net would interpret as a picturebox array? As you can see, i'm a really newbie to vb.net and wf in general, just started studying wf a couple days ago for my B.Sc and even that was accomplished with c#.

I have created a class from an xml schema (that I do not own and cannot change) using xsd.exe. Using this class, I am deserializing to bring the data in to an object collection to consume. There are times when I want to take objects in memory and pass them to the class created by xsd.exe using a constructor I built to generate a serialiable object collection.
I cannot figure out how to format some objects correctly Example: In the xml file, there are certain simple types that are floats that come in with 6 digits of precision. When I write them out, they have 7 digits of precision. Anorther example is integers with leading zeros in the xml file. They come in as 4 digits regardless of leading zeros, but I can't find a suitable way using serialization to output them (other than to change the property to a string datatype.[code]...

I have a thought about using a Serializable Collection containing both data objects and also sub-collections as a low-grade database, meaning it's going to store data objects that are expected to be added to regularly and deleted from occasionally.

I am generating this XML using the serializer in VB.net as shown below
Dim string_writer As New StringWriter()
Dim serializer As New XmlSerializer(GetType(MyClass))
serializer.Serialize(string_writer, addr)
txttest.Text = string_writer.ToString()
though it is returning XML, I see xmlns="http://tempuri.org/ in all the elements, is there anyway I hide this one.

How can I send and recieve serialized objects over a TCP connection with size and data type values in the header (within array(0) and array(1) values)?
I know how to serialize and send the object using
BinaryFormatter.Serialize
But on the receiving end I dont know the size of the obejct sent therefore I dont know when to stop reading the data stream. I also dont know how to take the recieved data and put it into an array of bytes().

This is my first post on here--I've been teaching myself VB via forums like this and MSDN for about 2 years now. I'm programming a computerized economics experiment, and I'm using a communications package that a guy I worked with developed. He and I have been going back and forth trying to figure out what the heck is going on.
The upshot of the communications package is that there's a serializeable MQMessage class that we send back and forth, essentially just a package of an integer (Type), string (Text), and Object (Data). Most of the time, this goes according to plan.
The problem is this: If the client receives two or more messages back-to-back, the client stops raising the MessageArrived event. (and presumably, the same would hold true for the server--I should test this, but jeez-oh-man, I've been running test after test for the last week).It's still connected, as on disconnect it throws the "Socket forcibly closed" exception. When it receives multiple messages sequentially, it's still receiving the data, it just never knows when the first message ends, and the buffer just keeps filling and filling. The problem seems to be that it can never successfully Deserialize the MQMessage object, and so it returns Nothing on the getCompletedMessage function and just keeps adding to the buffer (ABuffer.Length goes 1024, 2048, etc.).

Let's say I have the following class structure (simplified from my real-world problem):
Public Class PC_People_Container
Private _people_list As New List(Of PL_Person)
Public Sub New()[code].....
If I were to serialize this, I'd get the default assigned node names in my XML. That means my root is named PC_People_Container and each person in the list is marked up as PL_Person. I know I can change the root node using <XmlRoot(ElementName :="PeopleContainer")>. The trouble is doing that for the subclasses. I can't use the <XmlRoot> tag on PL_Person class because there can't be two root elements, and IntelliSense throws a fit when I try to use the <XmlElement> tag on a class like I would on a property. Is it even possible to control what those subclasses are named when they're serialized as child nodes?

I'm trying to send a XML serialized class over a network stream
the send is working
Dim IP As Net.IPAddress = System.Net.IPAddress.Parse(IPAddress)
Dim IPE As New Net.IPEndPoint(IP, 10003)
Dim TCPClient As New Net.Sockets.TcpClient
[Code]....
I always get an error {"Unable to read data from the transport connection: An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host."} The XMLFile has the xml document in it most of the time and I can go on and everything works but 1 out of every 5 times it doesn't work at all and the XMLFile contains nothing ..

I have a class like this:
<Serializable()> Public Class GOODownloadFile
Private aID As String
Private aDownloadLink As String
[code]....
Now when I create an object like this
Dim f As New GOODownloadFile("http:\download.com1.exe", "c:Down", "c:Down")
downloader.AddDownloadFile(f)
downloader.WriteInfoFile("C:1.txt")
All the values given are correctly saved in the file 1.txt But when I change the download file info afterwatds, like this:
Dim f As New GOODownloadFile("http:\download.com1.exe", "c:Down", "c:Down")
downloader.AddDownloadFile(f)
downloader.WriteInfoFile("C:1.txt")
[code]....
the new value (123456) is not saved. Hence, only the values provided BEFORE the AddDownload are saved, the rest aren't.
I've check my code 100times, and I'm sure everything is fine. I think it may be because of the send-by-value. When I change the values afterwards, the orginal object isn't used.
