I have a class. I can serialize my class by XmlSerializer.
but when i add a DataTable property in the class, XmlSerializer submit an error in this code:
XmlSerializer serializer = new XmlSerializer(typeof(MyCoulumnClollectionClass));
====>>>>
public class SCol
{
[XmlElement(ElementName = "TaxRate")]
public string FieldName
{
get
{
return m_ ;
}
set
{
m_=value ;
}
}
public string DisplayName ;
//````````````````
public DataTable m_columnTable ;
private string m_ ;
[XmlElement]
public string AAAA ;
}
public class MyCoulumnClollectionClass : CollectionBase
{
public SCol this[ int index ]
{
get
{
return( (SCol) List[index] );
}
set
{
List[index] = value;
}
}
public int Add( SCol value )
{
return( List.Add( value ) );
}
public int IndexOf( SCol value )
{
return( List.IndexOf( value ) );
}
public void Insert( int index, SCol value )
{
List.Insert( index, value );
}
public void Remove( SCol value )
{
List.Remove( value );
}
public bool Contains( SCol value )
{
return( List.Contains( value ) );
}
}

when i add this property to the class :
public DataTable m_columnTable ;
this error in submit:
An unhandled exception of type 'System.InvalidOperationException' occurred in system.xml.dll
Additional information: There was an error reflecting type 'MyCoulumnClollectionClass'.
error occurein this line :

NEVER use public fields - this is the worst programming concept you could do, except perhaps in the case of private structs used only internally to your code.
If you don't want the DataTable serialized, making the field private (and any public properties that access it, attribute them with the XmlIgnoreAttribute) will take care of that automatically, since XML Serialization only serializes public and private fields (unless you implement IXmlSerializable, which is undocumented and requires that you know how it works internally).
A DataTable should be serialized as part of a DataSet, so if you want this DataTable serialized, define the field as private (besides, public properties or fields should never start with m_, that goes against naming guidelines), reflect the field with a public property attribute with [XmlIgnore], then make a public property declared as DataSet that instantiates a new DataSet, puts the DataTable into the DataSet.Tables collection, and returns it. You don't have to use it (and can attribute it with [Browsable(false), EditorBrowsable(EditorBrowsableState.Never)]) - it's only for serialization.

Hi,
how can I call the default constructor of a class from an overloaded one? Example:
public class MainForm : System.Windows.Forms.Form {<br />
public MainForm() {<br />
InitializeComponent();<br />
PrepareSomeStuff();<br />
SomeMoreStuff();<br />
}<br />
<br />
public MainForm(string Somestring) {<br />
mSomestring = Somestring;<br />
InitializeComponent();<br />
PrepareSomeStuff();<br />
SomeMoreStuff();<br />
}<br />
}
Any ideas are welcome.

Thats what I was looking for. But still one question: Is the code of the default ctor executed before or after execution of the code in the overload.
Nevermind. I go figure out myself 
Thanks for your reply.

You can use the base keyword. Here is an example:
public class BaseClass
{
public BaseClass()
{
Console.WriteLine("Hello from base");
}
}
public class DerivedClass : BaseClass
{
public DerivedClass() : base()
{
Console.WriteLine("Hello from derived");
}
public DerivedClass(string s) : base()
{
Console.WriteLine("Hello from derived");
}
}

I actually knew this and I was not looking for a way of doing this in a base/derived class hierarchy. Sorry if I couldn't make myself understood in my initial post. My quest was rather how to call the default ctor of the same class from an overload. Thanks anyway for replying.

The way I've always done this kind of thing is to create an initialise method and call that. So your code would look like:
public class MainForm : System.Windows.Forms.Form
{
public MainForm()
{
InitialiseCommon();
}
public MainForm(string Somestring)
{
mSomestring = Somestring;
InitialiseCommon();
}
private void InitialiseCommon()
{
InitializeComponent();
PrepareSomeStuff();
SomeMoreStuff();
}
}
At least this was the way I was taught to do it in my C++ lectures years and years ago when I was at university. I've just updated the idea for C# and it works nicely.

You can just stick all of your initilization code within your base class and in your derived class call base within the constructor. This way, if your InitialiseCommon method changed names you would only have to change it in your base class, not in every class that it is called. See my post for an example.

My understanding was that it was common functionality within the same class, no inheritance involved (although the example given was possibly misleading in this respect as it was inheriting from the Form class, it wasn't part of what was needed.)

I didn't catch that he didn't want to use inheritance.

I've done this as well. Was just wondering whether there is a cleaner way of doing it in C#.
Thanks for your reply.

It's really a matter of consistency vs. performance. Putting all the common code in your default ctor and calling that first will ensure that your code is always code and you only need to change it in one place. If you use public ClassName(string name) : this(), it results in two whole extra IL instructions! 
Get the idea?

Hi everyone,
I am trying to do two things with the RTF control that I thought would be simple.
Firstly when the user presses the return key, the contents of the textbox is sent to be displayed, however this causes the text insertion cursor to move down one line, and stay there. I can't seem to get it move, even using Clear(); and ResetText();
if (e.KeyCode == Keys.Return)
{
if (this.rtfCompose.Text.Length != 0)
{
// Clear
this.rtfCompose.Clear();
this.rtfCompose.ResetText();
}
}
However that doesnt move the cursor back up to 0,0.
Also, when the user presses Return, the text gets sent to another RTF control for display. However, once the text goes beyond the size of the control, everything that's added cannot be seen unless the user scrolls. How would it be possible to scroll the existing text up and keep the new text (Added to the bottom) in view?
Thanks!

You might want to mention in which event your checking for the return key. This should actually be processed in the control's ProcessDialogKey method - which fires before the rich textbox recieves it. This means you have to extend the RichTextBox class and override that method. Don't forget to read the documentation about it, however, instead of just using it. There's things you need to understand about it, including when you override a control method you typically call it on the base class at some point (especially if it's not a message, character, whatever that you want to handle - the base class may need to process it).
As far as scrolling to the bottom, this is actually quite easy but you need to P/Invoke SendMessage and SetScrollPos, which are documented in MSDN[^]. You first send WM_VSCROLL (0x0115) using SendMessage to the other RichTextBox, using it's Handle property (the HWND for that window), along with the scroll information as defined in the WM_VSCROLL documentation. You may also need to call SetScrollPos to set the scroll position for the RichTextBox.
One final approach is to use ScrollToCaret, a public method defined by TextBoxBase (the base class for TextBox and RichTextBox). Several people have had problems getting this to work and have had to use the approach above; as such, this has been covered here in the forums in the past, so if you'd like to read more about these threads, click "Search comments" immediately above the message board and try searching (I recommend using the keyword "WM_VSCROLL").

I'm using the KeyDown event.
Overriding ProcessDialogKey is something I will research into. However P/Invoking and more advanced things like that are pretty new to me, so it'll take some learning about the basics before I'll be able to do that.
Thanks!

Hi all~
I would like to ask
I have written a dll by MFC
I would like to written a C# library as interface to use this MFC dll
How to achieve this result?
Is there anything need to change in the MFC code?
Thanks

Either go through all the problem of adding class factories to your unmanaged MFC DLL in order to use the CallingConvention.ThisCall calling convention with the DllImportAttribute (see a previous post here[^] for the gory details), or - much more easily - write an assembly using Managed C++. In a mixed-mode MC++ assembly, you still have access to all the "unmanaged" C/C++ APIs, including your MFC classes. Wrap those in managed (__gc) classes and compile your MC++ DLL with the /clr switch. This will produce an assembly that can be used by other managed projects, since all managed code compiles down to Intermediate Language (IL).

I would like one more question
If the arguement type of a method in MFC dll is "LPCTSTR"
how do I specify the method in C# using this way?
#region DLLImports
[DllImport("test.dll")]
private static extern Set(?? str); // ?? is the "LPCTSTR" in MFC dll
#endregion
Thanks
|

It's a string, but it's a platform-dependent string; ANSI in Windows, and Unicode in Windows NT.
So change the DllImportAttribute like so:
[DllImport("test.dll", CharSet=CharSet.Auto)]
private static extern dont-forget-the-return-value Set(string str);Also, unless this is an exported function, what you have won't work. Methods of classes defined in MFC must use the ThisCall CallingConvention so that the first argument (the class pointer) is pushed onto the stack so that the method is executed on that pointer.

HI~
if the return type is "LSCTSTR"
then is the return type is "string" in C# dll?
but it throws "NotSupportException"
Thanks~
|
|
|
|
|
Yes, but you must make sure that 1) CharSet.Auto is set in the DllImportAttribute and that 2) you use CallingConvention.ThisCall for methods (functions defined on a class). There's many reasons a NotSupportedException could be thrown, so you're just going to have to read those links I gave you before to articles about P/Invoke.
At least having a basic understanding is important to solving your problem.
