No
I used MaskedTextBox in my project it works fine on XP machines. But at Windows ME clients it doesnt work. so i asked is there any method to force to work it on Windows me. But i read MSDN carefully, i relazed, maskedbox is a WinFx control so WinFx controls just works on XP with SP2 , and WinServer 2003 also Vista.
All is that.

I decided to use MSMASK32.OCX i add to tollbar, but it says now "YOU MUST HAVE A LICENCE TO THIS THIS aCTIVEx COMPONENT"
how can i register that ? regsvr ... ... ???

Confused | :confused:

You can try unregistering and re-registering the control using REGSVR32.

If that doesn't work, see this[^] KB article on MSDN.

Reflection

Reflection

i have this class

class A
{
public int a
}

now this is what i want to do in my method

private A copy(A first)
{
A second as new A()

now i want to copy all values from "first" tot "second" , like this i mean:
second.a = first.a
but on this way i don't want to work, when a new member is added, i always have to adjust this function
so i want to loop all members with reflection and then copy the value like this:

Type typea = Type.GetType("A")
For Each member As System.Reflection.MemberInfo In typeA.GetMembers(Reflection.BindingFlags.DeclaredOnly)
'and here i want something like this: (offcourse this doesn't work)
second.member.name.value = first.member.name .value --> how can i get something that does this with reflection

Next

}

Why not use the method MemberwiseClone?

b { font-weight: normal; }

yezz i also tought of that but what will happen with arrays of reference types?

class A
{
public z = new Z[4]
}

class Z
{
public h = new H[3]
}

class H
{
public int i
}

how does memberwizeclone clone this? my new object may not referece to the same objects, never!! because i will change some values, and my source object may not change along with it

Guffa9-Dec-05 2:43

Then you have to loop through the members of the class and create a copy of each member that is a reference type. The code has to handle all data types that you will be using in the class.

I would have let the class implement IClonable instead.

b { font-weight: normal; }

Timothy_19829-Dec-05 3:20

9-Dec-05 3:20

can't do, i don't have control over the class, i'm only using it

so i think the only way doing this is with reflection, so if someone knows how i have to code this, please

Hi all,
I am developing an Editor on Japanese XP and want to provide text formatting in the editor.
I provided a comboBox to select the Font. i have included some Japanese fonts such as MS Gothic, SimSin, SimHei etc..

Now the problem i am facing is when i change the font from the ComboBox the font is not changed i.e the change is not reflected
The text entered after changing the font has the default font instead of the new font that is selected.

any help will be appreciated

Thanks and Regards,
Pramod

Did you provide code for the combobox' itemChange event? If yes, what code did you write in there?

Polis

Can you practice what you teach?

This is in the selectionChanged event of the ComboBox
{
RichTextBoxEx temp = focused; //focused is the RichtextBox that is currently focused
if(temp.SelectionFont != null)
temp.SelectionFont = new Font(((ComboBox) sender).Text,
.SelectionFont.SizeInPoints,temp.SelectionFont.Style);
else
temp.Font = new Font(((ComboBox)sender).Text,
temp.Font.SizeInPoints,temp.Font.Style); temp.Focus();
}

Please reply if u have some solution

Thanks and Regards

Hmm... you said you're using Japanese font families. Are they installed on your machine? A simple way to find out if they are indeed, is to fire notepad and see if you can use them to write something. If not, I think that's ur problem.

I've tried adding a richTextBox and a combo on a form with the code below and works fine. Notice that in the form's load event, I get only the installed fonts on my machine, and use one of them to apply to my richTextBox:

private void Form1_Load(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
	foreach (FontFamily f in FontFamily.Families)
		this.comboBox1.Items.Add(f.Name);

	this.comboBox1.SelectedIndex = 0;
}

private void comboBox1_SelectedIndexChanged(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
	this.richTextBox1.Font = new Font(this.comboBox1.Text, 10);
}

Polis

You are using the SelectionFont property, which will only change the font of the current selection... I think for the whole box set the Font property.

AB77719-Dec-05 2:22

Hi, Thanks J4amiec

I dont want to set the new font to the Whole textbox
but it should be reflected only for the text that will be written after changing the font

If i set this to the Font property then the text which was written
earlier with someother font also changes

please if anymore idea

Thanks
Pramod

Yup you are right, I tried a rich text box and a button, with this code on the button

private void button1_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
	this.richTextBox1.SelectionFont = new Font(this.richTextBox1.Font.FontFamily,this.richTextBox1.SelectionFont.Size+10);
}

And it worked fine... each time i clicked the button, further typing in the box was bigger. Have you tried running through your code with the debugger to see that everything is being set correctly?
