There are a few things you can do. BillWoodRuff gave a good example.
- the control variable is never used inside the function.
- Is there a reason to pass value as an object? In addition I would never use a keyword (value) as a variable name. (unless the autofill gave it that name of course)
- I never program multiple exit points in a function, often it is harder to debug. Better to set a boolean and return that at the end. (although that's more a matter of taste)
- Keep the { }. It will be easier to add a statement if a modification is needed.
- int.TryParse is a very good function. I also often use Convert.ToInt32, but make sure you know what it returns in case of null values or invalid integer strings/objects. (read MSDN doc)
- In some countries the decimal sign is not a ".", but a komma ",".
- You don't need _minValue or _maxValue you have int.MinValue and int.MaxValue.
- An object variable has an IsNumber() and ToInt() function? (not in version 4.5)
Hope this helps.

hmm about the decimal sign, its new to me that it is a comma to other country.
BTW, basically the initial value of _minValue and _maxValue is from the int.MinValue and int.MaxValue, but in some point it could be possible that i will limit the value the user can entered, and it was defined in the constructor.
private int _maxValue = int.MaxValue;
private int _minValue = int.MinValue;
private bool _IsAllowNull;
public ValidateInteger(bool isAlloweNull = true)
{
_IsAllowNull = isAlloweNull;
}
public ValidateInteger(int min, int max, bool isAlloweNull = false)
{
_maxValue = max;
_minValue = min;
_IsAllowNull = isAlloweNull;
}
while the IsNumber() and ToInt() is a custom extension.
Thank you

Personally I would put a mask on the control to only allow the entering of digits 0-9, then all you have to check is that the entry is not outside the max and min values.

I'd say it's not too bad. Drop all the elses, they are not needed as each condition returns out. That will remove some of the indentation.
If value is null and nulls are allowed, then it'll throw a null exception on the ToString(). The error message for the null check is wrong.
The IsNumber() and ToInt() functions are interesting, as in they don't exist on object. Extension methods? The assumption seems to be that the number is actually a string representation of a number, in which case first confirm it is a string, then do a int.TryParse to extract it...

Rob Philpott.

yup the IsNumber() and ToInt() is a custom extension, basically the IsNumber() will identify the string if it can be a number(either a decimal,int and so on), while the ToInt() as you expected will convert a value to int.
BTW thank you, for your suggestion

A question on QA [^] from someone who knows the internal structure of a Type, but does not have a reference to the Type or an Interface the Type implements ... and who needs to cast the Type as Object to its original Type to access its internal field.
In other words: I have an instance of this Class cast to Object:
public class ExampleClass
{
public int ExId { set; get; }
public string ExString { set; get; }
public ExampleClass(int exId, string exString)
{
ExId = exId;
ExString = exString;
}
}And, my code does not contain the definition of this Class.
So I want to cast the instance of ExampleClass as Object to its Native Type. The thought occurred to me that it might be possible, since I know the internal structure of ExampleClass to "spoof" an Interface like this:
public interface IExample
{
int ExId { set; get; }
string ExString { set; get; }
}And, use it like this on the instance to get it back to ExampleClass Type:
IExample iexample = example as IExample;
This results in the value of 'iexample being set to 'null.
I also tried "spoofing" the Class, and using that:
public class xExample
{
public int ExId { set; get; }
public string ExString { set; get; }
public xExample(int exId, string exString)
{
ExId = exId;
ExString = exString;
}
}
xExample xexample = ExampleClassAsObject as (xExample);My conclusion is that this kind of "spoofing" is not possible in .NET, and, being foolish enough to ask why, I ask: why ? Security reasons ? A "spoof" is never "the real thing" ?
Just curious, thanks.

Try it with the dynamic keyword;
using System;
class ConsoleApplication
{
public class ExampleClass
{
public int ExId { set; get; }
public string ExString { set; get; }
public ExampleClass(int exId, string exString)
{
ExId = exId;
ExString = exString;
}
}
static void Main(string[] args)
{
object ec = new ExampleClass(1, "hello world");
dynamic ec2 = ec;
Console.WriteLine(ec2.ExString);
Console.ReadLine();
}
}

I think it is a technical "feature", a side-effect. Otherwise, dynamic would be a nice hole in that security.

Your welcome ofc 
I'd see it more as a bit of abuse; it is not a very nice 'solution', but it does the trick. Will explode as soon as someone changes the name of the property. Not during compile time, but during runtime. A compile-time check would be preferred.

The answer, as always, lies in the il. Specifically, you're looking at these two lines:
L_001a: ldfld class SpoofTest.ExampleClass SpoofTest.Class1::example
L_001f: isinst SpoofTest.IExample So, the code loads the instance and then tests it to see if it's an instance of your interface. Obviously, it's not an instance so the code would leave iexample as nulL, so this code
public Class1()
{
IExample iexample = example as IExample;
if (iexample == null)
{
System.Diagnostics.Debug.WriteLine("This does not compute");
}
}produces this IL
.method public hidebysig specialname rtspecialname instance void .ctor() cil managed
{
.maxstack 3
.locals init (
[0] class SpoofTest.IExample iexample,
[1] bool CS$4$0000)
L_0000: ldarg.0
L_0001: ldc.i4.1
L_0002: ldstr "Test"
L_0007: newobj instance void SpoofTest.ExampleClass::.ctor(int32, string)
L_000c: stfld class SpoofTest.ExampleClass SpoofTest.Class1::example
L_0011: ldarg.0
L_0012: call instance void [mscorlib]System.Object::.ctor()
L_0017: nop
L_0018: nop
L_0019: ldarg.0
L_001a: ldfld class SpoofTest.ExampleClass SpoofTest.Class1::example
L_001f: isinst SpoofTest.IExample
L_0024: stloc.0
L_0025: ldloc.0
L_0026: ldnull
L_0027: ceq
L_0029: ldc.i4.0
L_002a: ceq
L_002c: stloc.1
L_002d: ldloc.1
L_002e: brtrue.s L_003d
L_0030: nop
L_0031: ldstr "This does not compute"
L_0036: call void [System]System.Diagnostics.Debug::WriteLine(string)
L_003b: nop
L_003c: nop
L_003d: nop
L_003e: ret
}
Now, compare this to what happens if I change ExampleClass to implement IExample. The IL changes to this
.method public hidebysig specialname rtspecialname instance void .ctor() cil managed
{
.maxstack 3
.locals init (
[0] class SpoofTest.IExample iexample,
[1] bool CS$4$0000)
L_0000: ldarg.0
L_0001: ldc.i4.1
L_0002: ldstr "Test"
L_0007: newobj instance void SpoofTest.ExampleClass::.ctor(int32, string)
L_000c: stfld class SpoofTest.ExampleClass SpoofTest.Class1::example
L_0011: ldarg.0
L_0012: call instance void [mscorlib]System.Object::.ctor()
L_0017: nop
L_0018: nop
L_0019: ldarg.0
L_001a: ldfld class SpoofTest.ExampleClass SpoofTest.Class1::example
L_001f: stloc.0
L_0020: ldloc.0
L_0021: ldnull
L_0022: ceq
L_0024: ldc.i4.0
L_0025: ceq
L_0027: stloc.1
L_0028: ldloc.1
L_0029: brtrue.s L_0038
L_002b: nop
L_002c: ldstr "This does not compute"
L_0031: call void [System]System.Diagnostics.Debug::WriteLine(string)
L_0036: nop
L_0037: nop
L_0038: nop
L_0039: ret
}
You'll obviously notice, at this stage, that the isinst check is no longer there.

Is there a way to get OAuth2 access token without prompting user for UserID an Password. I mean, from back end accept the authorization and authentication request silently without prompting Website?

Considering the website will probably NOT trust your users local account authority on their own workstations, no.
The entire reasons for entering a username and password is so that the user can prove to the system that they are who they way they are. The system has to have a "trusted authority" to validate those credentials against.

Not entirely sure, but I think their rationale is to prevents bots from grabbing valid emails.

If you mean "I can send mail to any address, even if it doesn't actually exist" then yes, you can. Most email systems do that and discard invalid addresses to prevent spammers and phishers from knowing which ones are valid and concentrating on those.
Nothing you can do about that!
But...if you send too many, you will almost certainly end up on a blocked domain list.

Hello,
I have a winform application which has a treeview and listview with n number of columns. I want to reorder the columns but the treeview data is not getting interchanged. How do i trigger the event wherein on column reorder the row data is changed.
Currently on ColumnReorder event im swapping the childnode data based on olddisplay index and newdisplay index and storing it in childnode.tag. But im unable to trigger the drawnode event to display the reordered information.
For example if i have 3 columns say Folder, DateCreated and Size and when i drag and drop "DateCreated" column after "Size" i want the data in "DateCreated" column to be moved.
Thanks

If your intent is to re-build the TreeView based on re-ordering the columns in the ListView, I think that's not a good design choice because of the amount of work you'd have to do to re-build the TreeView node-structure.
If you absolutely have to have different views, I would use multiple TreeViews, each one built to match a given ListView column order; then I'd just display the TreeView that matches the current ListView column order. Of course, depending on how many items you display, how many columns, etc. that could be expensive in terms of memory consumption and time-to-build the TreeViews.

Hi,
Im supposed to have the design like that hence im using treeview and listview. How do i rebuild Treeview on reordering of columns. I have the new treeview data but im unable to trigger the event to write the new treeview data.
Thanks

To help you further with this, I'd need to know:
1. did you write the code that populates the ListView, and builds the TreeView Nodes based on the ListView ?
2. if you did write the code: please describe, in a general way, how you build the TreeView Nodes.
3. is the ListView being populated by being 'bound to a DataSource ?
4. Do you know how to write code that recursively parses a TreeView, accessing every Node ?

Hi,
1) Yes im using code which populates the listview and builds treeview nodes based on it.
2) I have around 20 columns in listview and for each treeview node i store the values of all columns in node.tag and populate it.
3)I didnt understand what bound to a datasource means.
4) No i dont have idea how to recursively parse a Treeview.
Thanks

1) Yes im using code which populates the listview and builds treeview nodes based on it.
Okay, but I still don't have a clear idea of what is actually displayed in the TreeView: assuming there's one "root-node" for each row in the ListView, does that root-node have "child-nodes" ? If so, what are they: one child node per column ?
Please describe exactly what I'd see in one root-node before and after a re-ordering of any column.
2) I have around 20 columns in listview and for each treeview node i store the values of all columns in node.tag and populate it.
That doesn't sound quite right, but what exactly are you storing in the Tag: an instance of a Class or Struct ?
3)I didnt understand what bound to a datasource means.
Let's leave that issue alone then.
4) No i dont have idea how to recursively parse a Treeview.
That's easy to do, but only necessary when you have a multi-level TreeView where any Node can have any number of Child Nodes, and so on.
