The example I provided was simply to indicate that default values were available at design-time for the System.Data.DataColumn class.

If you want to determine the characteristics of columns in your database at runtime, there are a number of ways to do it. You could use SQL to inspect the system tables in your database directly or you could use something like System.Data.OleDb.OleDbConnection.GetOleDbSchemaTable to retrieve tons of information about your physical database.

For instance, to retrieve column info, you might use (where conn is an OleDbConnection):

DataTable columnInfo = conn.GetOleDbSchemaTable(OleDbSchemaGuid.Columns, new object[4]{null, null, "MyTable", null});

The call uses the OleDbSchemaGuid class to specify the type of database object you're trying to fetch information about, and the object array is a list of restriction values (like a filter) that determines which specific instance(s) of the database object type you want to investigate.

Best of luck.

Hi,
I need to have UI more or less same as VS .NET editor.
It should have panes as "Solution explorer", and "Output Window".
The toolbars and the menus should be the same as .NET editor.

If anyone has any sample code, will be very helpfull.

Thanx in advance

You should use the CheckedChanged property.

ex:

RadioButton1_CheckedChanged(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
   if (RadioButton1.Checked == true)
   {
      TextBox1.Enabled = true;
   }
}

Ah ha... You didn't say you were using it on a WebForm. Smile | :)

Have a look at this[^].

Note that the control does not immediately cause the page to post back to the server by default. You need to set the AutoPostBack property to true for an immediate reaction to it's change in state.

Hope this helps you.

You could use the mouse down event - you can use the MouseEventArgs parameter to test which mouse button was used.

Where did you found that info? The
MSDN topic[^] of the RadioButton lists the Click event and it's also available in the Visual Studio form designer.

Hey!

I have created a Windows Control Library
I have built this and added the dll file to my main project

This workt well, but when i closed and then started upp my main progject again the control was not visible in the form?

And i got the folowing errors (menuPanel1 is my dll control)

C:\ForumProject\ForumClient\ForumClient.cs(324): The variable 'menuPanel1' is either undeclared or was never assigned.

An exception occurred while trying to create an instance of ForumClient.MenuPanel. The exception was "Invalid parameter used.".

But i can run the program and then the control is visible?

I have tryed to rebuild the control and add it to the project, but i get this message when i am draging it to my main form

An exception occured whule trying to creat an instance of Forum.MenuPane. Exception was "Invalid parameter used.".

My construkter in the control looks like this

		public MenuPanel()<br />
		{<br />
			// This call is required by the Windows.Forms Form Designer.<br />
			InitializeComponent();<br />
<br />
		}

and The automated code to create it looks like this

private MenuPanel menuPanel1;<br />
<br />
		private void InitializeComponent()<br />
		{<br />
                        this.menuPanel1 = new MenuPanel();<br />
<br />
			// <br />
			// menuPanel1<br />
			// <br />
			this.menuPanel1.BackgroundImage = ((System.Drawing.Image)(resources.GetObject("menuPanel1.BackgroundImage")));<br />
			this.menuPanel1.Location = new System.Drawing.Point(0, 0);<br />
			this.menuPanel1.Name = "menuPanel1";<br />
			this.menuPanel1.Size = new System.Drawing.Size(272, 568);<br />
			this.menuPanel1.TabIndex = 6;<br />

Handle Bitmaps faster?

Hey

I am developing a simple Client program and i have made an Windows Control Library(DLL file) that i am adding to my client.

AnyWay This Control contains a Bitmap picture that is 272x600 wit 3 buttons on it with is 202x36, all is BMP.

When moving other Windows ower my Client(where the Bitmaps is) thay are updated wary slow? Is there any easy way to make it go faster?

I am loading all pictures in to Bitmaps object on startup and then adds them to the right controls.

Best Regards
Jimmy

Maybe enabling of double-buffering improves your situation.
Take a look at the following[^].

Thanks

i have added the following line ni bouth the MainClient(project) and Windows Control Libraray(the control) in theres cunstructer:

SetStyle(ControlStyles.AllPaintingInWmPaint | ControlStyles.DoubleBuffer | ControlStyles.UserPaint, true);

But this dosent do anything. When i am moving an other window ower the bitmaps the window that i am moving over is lagging on the bitmap creating alot of windows, and it take about 1 sec before the bitmap is updated and the Window crap on the bitmap is over painted.

Im i doing any wrong ? shold i not be abled to move a Window over my project with a bitmap in with out this problem?

Try calling the method inside of an event handler for the Load event and add a call to the UpdateStyles method, which forces the assigned styles to be reapplied to the control.

Do you mean that you could call this in the contructer of my Main project

SetStyle(ControlStyles.AllPaintingInWmPaint | ControlStyles.DoubleBuffer | ControlStyles.UserPaint, true);<br />
this.UpdateStyles();

This does not changes Frown | :(

Or how do you mean i shold add it?

I'm not sure if it's sufficient, if you call it only in your main project. I never used double buffering myself (never needed too), but it was sometimes mentioned in this forum when talking about flickering or drawing problems.
But I'm pretty sure that placing the code inside the constructor won't have any effect cause the documentation for the UpdateStyles method states that "The UpdateStyles method has no effect if the IsHandleCreated property value is false.", which is the case during construction. So try moving it into an event handler for the Load event.

Unfortunately I can't answer your last question cause as I said I've never used double buffering myself and therefor haven't that much experience and knowledge. Sorry.

Events with .Net remoting

Member 164882911-Jan-05 23:46

Member 1648829

11-Jan-05 23:46

I have a solution that I have created using .Net remoting and am having a lot of trouble upgrading it to use events.

The solution uses a remote singleton object which I'm hosting with my own server. A requirement of the solution is that the remote object's assembly must remain seperate from the client so I am using an interface.

I have created a seperate assembly so that it can be referenced by both the client and the remote object's assemblies. This new assembly contains a single class that implements the Activator.GetObject method and subscribes to the remote event. After a little playing around with the formatter sink classes I can instantiate this class from the client application and it seems to successfully subscibe to the remote event (or at least it no longer throws exceptions). However the client side event handler is never called. I have implimented tracing on the server side to ensure that the event is being raised and event handlers are working there.

Does anyone know where I'm going wrong?

UpdateLayeredWindow problem ...

Axonn Echysttas11-Jan-05 21:57

Axonn Echysttas

11-Jan-05 21:57

Hi everybody... I got a short question about one nasty little API function which I am in most dire need of. I need to somehow update the translucency / transparency setting of a normal window. Say I got two buttons and a Scrollbar. I need to somehow call the UpdateLayeredWindow function each time the scrollbar is modified so I can modify the translucency (opacity) level of my window. So far, I need to DESTROY and create the window AGAIN and use "SetLayeredWindowAttributes" to achieve this. But it's not a solution, this is a workaround and it's not nice at all : ), I think you agree : ).

Here's what I got so far... (this is VB6 code, but any language will do, I can adapt to anything, the only thing that I need is to actually make this WORK : ) ).

<br />
UpdateLayeredWindow Me.hwnd, Me.hdc, ByVal 0, m_windowSize, m_mainSurfaceDC, <br />
m_srcPoint, 0, m_blendFunc, ULW_ALPHA

You don't have to care about the parameters. My question is not related to those. My question is... can this nasty function be used to set a NORMAL WINDOW? I mean not a bitmap! A window... with some buttons and stuff on it. I am sure it must be possible, but I just don't know how. It's one nasty little function and I can't find anywhere some good documentation about it, only examples that are not working properly or do more than I need this function to do. I Googled for it and 60% of the results were declaring it, but not using it ! HA! Imagine that! : (. The other 40% were either using bitmaps, either not working.

I got one example that uses bitmaps, but that's too complicated and it's not what I need. I tried to put a scrollbar on that window and it wouldn't even appear, of course, since the guy who did this is using some bunch of functions to work with the bitmaps : (.

Thank you a LOT for reading this and I would really appreciate any help, it's for a good cause : ) (freeware application). I sure hope there are some people on the Code Project who ran into this function before.

Just before you ask.... no, I can't use .Net to do this, but some .Net ideas WOULD be usefull since I could at least port it to my VB 6.

Have a nice day everybody : )
