Hello,
I implemented drag and drop for some of my controls. I did it by having my controls implement IDataObject then using the usual mouse(up,down, move, etc) and drag(drop, leave, etc) events, in other controls/forms to accept the drop.
While the control is being dragged its shown along with the mouse as a small square border with a small + sign next to it (I guess this is default). It looks like the small box is the representation of the control being dragged. I would like to show sometime else as the control is being dragged. I've been looking on MSDN and online and didn't find anything yet (they only talked about how to replace the mouse cursor for the drag operation).
I really would like to avoid creating a form and moving that around with the mouse. Is there some handle to replace the default "object being dragged" state/box with something of my own choice.
Thanks,
Ramanan

You can replace the cursor with whatever you like, the Bitmap class has a GetHIcon method, or something like that, which converts it to an icon, which can then be passed to the Cursor constructor.

Thanks Christian,
I also found a sample for this same method in Chris Sell's new Windows Forms book in an Appendix last evening.

I made simple SideBar menu like Outlook has and I want to add design time support inside of VS.Net to drag controls onto it the various menu choices.
Can someone please post a link to an article that has added design time support to a custom user control?
Thanks.

Do you know of a link that is for design time support for a regular windows control?
The methods that are overrided in that ASP.NET example don't seem to have a counterpart from to override for normal winforms programming.
Thanks,
Brad

I have a source file with bunch of text in it. There is a function there, called GetName("Some name"). I need to scan the file for that function and get all the names it tries to load.
So for example, GetName("Jon") should return "Jon" to me. I need to write a regex for that. The regex needs to be simple and not try to do any sort of validation. So GetName("123 lalala") is ok. I dont need to check if the name is a string and all that. I am just interested in whatever is between the quotations inside the GetName() function. Please help.

GetName\(\"([^\"]*)
should do it. That says match GetName(", then match everything before the closing quote into a group. I think. expresso is the tool you need to check/work with regex.

I forgot the last ), but I've tested it now and it works fine as written above.

thank you, I tested it in expression, and it works great, but with little problem thoough.
Say I have this text: GetName("Igor")
the expression would return "Igor", which is good
but If I have GetName("Igor", the expression will also return "Igor", eventhough the last bracket is missing. I tried sticking \) in the expression in a couple of places, but produced an erronous expression.

\) at the very end will add an ending bracket requirement. I didn't put it because it seemed superfluous

oh, that works. True, there is no real need for \) at the end, I will afterall be parsing a C# file, but just to be safe  . thank you!

In that case you may need to check for GetName( "Some name").

In work place of VB.net if a .vb file is selected (as .cs in VC#), the work place shows 2 lists under .vb & .vb[design] tabs (Class Name list & Method Name list)
a. Let say we have a MAIN.vb and a MAIN.frm that has a START button (sub-list) in it. If we select MAIN in Class Name list, then we will see START component in that list
b. If we select START in the list then in the Method Name list will show a list of methods (ie: Click, TextChanged ...)
* In VC# we can not see the sub-list of (a) & in (b), it only shows whatever we have already used (not showing availbale list)
Anyone know how to view (a) & (b) in VC# as in VB?
Thanks for any help

Are you talking about intellisense? It works fine for me.

I created a bound DatagridView and added an unbound DataGridViewComboBoxColumn and for each rows in the datagrid I add items to cell of the unbound column. What I find strange is that I see items count greater than zero and the values are there in each of the cells looking at the datagridview through the debugger but they don't show up for the user. I see the arrow down but no values are shown.
Not sure maybe I forgot some setting for the values to show ?
Confused but hopefull

May I suggest you read the documentation on the Random[^] class yourself. What you proposed is entirely unnecessary.

Forgot about Next(int32, int32). Still used to the old C++ Rnd.
Thanks for the gentle nudge

Now I'm curious about what you originally suggested.

|
|

Hello
Promise you won't fry me afterwards?
I suggested using a seed then checking the value using an if statement.
Silly, isn't it?;P

I want to have a delegate inside an attribute
public class MyAttribute : Attribute
{
public delegate T updater( T myVar);
}
is that possible?
--------------------------------------------------------
1 line of code equals many bugs. So don't write any!!

Hello
After some modification to your code it compiles. yes you can have generic delegates in attributes, yet why?
Here is your code modified:
public class MyAttribute : Attribute
{
public delegate T updater<T>(T myVar);
}

I have a windows application with a hosted web browser control, and need help regarding an issue:
The simple details:
Is it possible to have a hyperlink in a web browser control (within aforementioned windows application) output the hyperlink as text to the windows application it is hosted in without processing the link?
i.e. instead of http://www.microsoft.com/Any_Article.pdf opening a PDF reader, it outputs the html as a string to a messagebox, without opening the PDF reader program.
The in-depth details:
I have a tabControl with an InfoPath form control (Microsoft.Office.InfoPath.FormControl) on tabPage1 and a webBrowser control on tabPage2. I can programatically open any infopath *.xml form using C# (including not letting the form open as read-only) or fill out a new form from a *.xsn form template, and in the browser I can navigate (using custom buttons) our sharepoint site which hosts the xml forms. The problem is that IE6 opens the *.xml forms using Mircosoft Office InfoPath, and in my hosted application, I'd like the string of the link returned so I can open it within the form control, without (another) InfoPath starting outside of my app. Maybe, I should force the user environment to use a different program to open an *.xml file, a program that I'd write, that somehow redirected that link as a string back into the original windows app???
