Thank you for your proposal Gerry, that is pretty much what I'll be doing now.
Each library checks if it is applicable for the current type and sets the view's visibility accordingly.
This does not really make me happy as I have to load all assemblies, but it is the best solution I can think of right now.

Glad that's working for you; sometimes the simplest solution is the best one.
If a better solution comes to mind later (as it often does), you have the option to go back and re-factor if it makes a difference. That's typical of software; when that gnawing feeling stops, you know you are "optimal".

I have a logon DLL that has a form which needs to be displayed in the main applications main windows navigation Frame. There is no mucking about with app domains but it is a PITA to put it together.
App.xaml - get the arguments passed into the start up exe and pass them to the main window VM.
MainVM has a reference to the main view (I know breaks the MVVM model) and the logon DLL. It gets the URL for the logon view from the DLL code>@"pack://application:,,,/LogonDLLName;component/Views/Logon.xaml and puts it into the frame in the main window.
It subscribes to the LoadCompleted method of the view to get the datacontext of the Logon view. And the PropertyChanged event in the Logon DLL VM.
PropertyChanged gets the content from the logon event and proceeds with the application.
As I said this is a PITA but it does work and we can relatively easily use the same logon DLL for all the applications. I hesitate to put this out there as I'm bloody certain there is a better way to do it.

What occurs to me is that you can solve this using a combination of this article[^] with some clever work with the AppResources to register your views with "on-demand", replacing view references as necessary.

I have been posting about my SignalR project and about how I have been unable to connect to the SignalR server component on my server.
Here is a simple Sample SignalR Chat APp.
Run the app, start the server. Then open an additional Client and you'll see that it works fine.
I have then copied the server project's files to my Server, opened a port, disabled the firewall, and attempted to connect.
Depending on the things I try, I get different error messages, all telling me in some way that it could not find the server, or timed out, etc.
At this point I'm really desperate. I MUST get a SignalR server working on my Server. I'd be willing to pay to get help.
If anyone know how to do this, please help.
Thanks
If it's not broken, fix it until it is

What i'm doing wrong?
Basic binding to Combobox ItemsSource.
What I have tried:
C#
public partial class MainWindow : Window
{
ObservableCollection<string> _items = new ObservableCollection<string> { "a1", "a2" };
public ObservableCollection<string> Items
{
get { return _items; }
set { _items = value; }
}
public MainWindow()
{
InitializeComponent();
var aa = a1;
}
}
XAML
<StackPanel>
<ComboBox Name="a1" ItemsSource="{Binding Items}">
</ComboBox>
</StackPanel>

You haven't set a DataContext. Without that, WPF doesn't know what you are trying to bind to. With the code you have there, after your call to InitializeComponent(); put this in:
DataContext = this; That should do it.

Yes. It works. Thank you. And for full short answer.

Not if he is binding to a List of strings!

I have searched the internet and can't find an answer to my question. In one of my WPF XMAL pages which is a Views I am using a GridView to load and binding values for each DisplayMemberBinding row. What I need to do is raise a row selected event but the GridView does not contain that event. How do I create a row selected event for the WPF GridView?
|

Are you sure you mean a GridView[^]? That can only be used as a view mode for a ListView[^], which does have a SelectionChanged event[^].

Yes it is in a ListView. Now I see the SelectionChange event. How would you recommend determining which row was selected?

Hi,
I'm coding a little application for my company, the idea is very simple:
I would like to copy a directory from a server location to a local folder and I want to show the progress by using a progress bar.
I already integrated the copy of the directory by using this code:
using System;
using System.IO;
class DirectoryCopyExample {
static void Main() {
DirectoryCopy(".", @".\temp", true);
}
private static void DirectoryCopy(string sourceDirName, string destDirName, bool copySubDirs) {
DirectoryInfo dir = new DirectoryInfo(sourceDirName);
if (!dir.Exists) {
throw new DirectoryNotFoundException("Source directory does not exist or could not be found: " + sourceDirName);
}
DirectoryInfo[] dirs = dir.GetDirectories();
if (!Directory.Exists(destDirName)) {
Directory.CreateDirectory(destDirName);
}
FileInfo[] files = dir.GetFiles();
foreach(FileInfo file in files) {
string temppath = Path.Combine(destDirName, file.Name);
file.CopyTo(temppath, false);
}
if (copySubDirs) {
foreach(DirectoryInfo subdir in dirs) {
string temppath = Path.Combine(destDirName, subdir.Name);
DirectoryCopy(subdir.FullName, temppath, copySubDirs);
}
}
}
}
For the integration of the progress bar according to the number of files/sizes I can't find anything
Can someone help me with this?
Thank you!

Where did you look? Google has lots of suggestions: wpf progress bar - Google Search[^].

That's Windows Forms, not WPF. Your first sample was a Console application. How much do you currently have as WPF?

That doesn't answer the question I asked - you might as well have replied with "I like cheese". How much do you currently have as WPF?

I have been trying to do this without luck. What I'm trying to do is use an Outlook email link to run a local WPF exe with a parameter. I have been trying several things. First I created a .bat file and tried to kick it off directly from the email link (and Word link):
c:\users\steve\debug\MasterPage.bat 100
The batch files looks like this:
C:\users\steve\debug\MasterPage.exe %1
So that doesn't work so I changed the link to point to a html file running a JavaScript function calling the exe directly:
function callProgram()
{
var objShell = new ActivexObject("Shell.Application");
objShell.ShellExecute("cmd.exe", "C:\\cd C:\\Debug\\MasterPage.exe 1", "C:\\WINDOWS\\system32", "open", 1);
}
Nothing seems to work. If anyone can help please do.

Any half-decent email client will not execute Javascript in the body of the message, and will not allow links to launch local applications. If they did, it would be a major security vulnerability.
Give your users a command to copy and paste into the "Run" dialog (Win+R).

I found the answer:
script language=JavaScript
function launchExecutable(executableFullPath)
{
var shellActiveXObject = new ActiveXObject("WScript.Shell");
shellActiveXObject.Run(executableFullPath, 1, false);
shellActiveXObject = null;
}
script

That might work in your environment but it won't work in mine. Yes, we use Outlook/Exchange. Policies prevent us from doing what you came up with, for very obvious security reasons.
