What about using "tag"??
e.g:
<br />
myNode.value = objEmployee.Name;<br />
myNode.tag = objEmployee;<br />
<br />
Treeview.Nodes.Add(myNode);
There is a property called "tag" in each node.. so, you can use it for storing the object...

Michael's solution is what your looking for.
You could improve it slightly by overriding the ToString method in the Employee class to return the Name property, so myNode.Text = objEmployee.ToString();
The benefit of this is you can manipulate the data to be displayed within the class itself. Also, if you later need to add this data to a combo box or similar, these controls automatically use this method to determine what data to display (the Items collection is a collection of objects not strings).
I'm not sure why Microsoft didn't include a treeview.Nodes.Add(object item)

Hi all
I am new to C#, we are developing an application and it must support many languages including Asian and arabic. the problem is in some cultures like Arabic, the control's position is different, apart from that, there are lots of labels and buttons in this application so how can we managed all these labels to automatically change their values and positions?
I managed to define resources and assembly but in this case I have to choose label by calling some methods to retrieve the correct label for current culture and this seems really hard and very untidy code. is there a way to define resource for each form so it automatically will be used when the culture changed
any suggestion would be of great help
thank you very much

Set the localizable property of form to true and design the form for different languages by setting the language property.
|
|
|
|
|
thanks yes it's working
but another question is how do you usually do this? I mean, consider we designed a form with default language now we keep the resx file somewhere and then we change the language and design new interface and then create new resx file, is this right?
|
|
|
|
|
Yes, that is right. During runtime you can set the UI culture by setting the CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture property and the resources for that language will be loaded

I am adding a help menu with an about menu item.
I want to have a form open here.
I tried to add a form in the solution explorer but was unable to get it to open.
How could I make a form open in the Click event in a menu item?
|
|
|
|
|
After adding new form ( let's say "Form1"), you can write the following code in menu_click event..
Form1 f1 = new Form1();<br />
f1.ShowDialog();

I need to convert an INT to Hex in my C# code.
Visual Basic had this Converter Class with functions like that. Is there something comparable in .Net or C#?

hi,
int.ToString("X"); or int.ToString("X8"); or ...

Thanks.
Luc, your answers are always quick but often not very deep or specific... and many times, they are downright glib. For instance, it's not very clear to me what "X" and "X8" are (I'm looking at ToString() now in the documentation, but you could have been much more helpful in identifying whether these were format providers, etc).
Take a look at the answers that are rated very highly in these forums. They are informative, sometimes deep. They can be very useful and educational without necessarily being deep or long.
This, of course, is just my opinion. It's nice to have a quick pointer come up immediately, but in all of the questions I've asked that you've answered (and you've answered them all ), yours is rarely the most useful answer.
It's good to know, though, that you are available in late hours

I am providing pointers and encouraging people to read the documentation, that is the

I am creating a simple project with a ContexMenuStrip control (This previously was called a MainMenu control). When I select the ContexMenuStrip control, and look in the properties window in the events list, I can not find the popup event.
Has this been renamed also?

There's 'Opening' and 'Opened' is that what your looking for?
My current favourite word is: PIE!
Good ol' pie, it's been a while.

Thanks for the reply.
I don't think that is what I want.
I am doing a project in the Wrox Beginning visual C# book, and my project has a file menu which has: New, Open, Save, and Exit. I am putting code in the Popup event (this will be to see if a file exist. The file will be in the same directory as the project, but the first time the program is ran it is not there).
Anyway, when I run my project and click on Files, the menu pops open, so I guess I could put the code in the click event for the ContexMenuStrip control. The strange thing is that according to my book I should be able to highlight the ContexMenuStrip control, and then in the properties window, in the events list, I should be able to find the Popup event. I click the lightning bolt in the properties window and I do not see a Popup event. I am trying to follow the instructions in my book but this doesn't make sense?
Thanks again, help is appreciated

Not quite. ContexMenuStrip is a new Control, it works slightly differently and has
different events. Good old MainMenu still exists, it is not obsolete, but it does not show
in the toolbox by default. You can add it by right clicking the toolbox pane, and
Choose Items. (Chances are you will have to repeat this when you reopen the project)
If you want to use ContextMenuStrip anyway you will have to adapt, and a more recent
C# (C# 2.0) book would be appropriate...

I tried to add Main menu to the toolbox before, but it was already there and showed up as the ContexMenuStrip. Now I tied it again and I see it three times in the list. One of these in the list is in a different directory and it is indeed the old control. I guess once you use it, it shows up different, (or maybe I missed it).
Different events for the newer control would explain allot. I will have to make the best of things until I get another book. I may just want to wait for Visual Studio 2008 which is supposed to be arriveing this month. I see they have a Wrox book out on this already, I really like the Wrox books.
Once again,
Thank you
