Hello Programmers,
I'm working on a Chat Messenger. I've different types of control on the Form to beautify the look. Some Panels With Background Images etc. When I resize to grow, restore after minimize and Maximize the Window It Flickers and some black patches are shown on the Form.
Any suggestion which may solve the problem?
Thanks Alot in Advance,
Best Regards,
Rizwan Ahmed

Use double buffering. You can set a control's DoubleBuffered property to true. The DoubleBuffered property is protected, though, which means you can only set it if you're inheriting from the control. There are several articles on double buffering on CodeProject if you care to search.

Yeah I already tried double buffering and set double buffer property of all the conntrols on the form But it does not work at all. I see the same black paches while maximizing, restore etc. And also It consumes Lot Much CPU Time.
Any other Idea? And yeah of Course I know about double buffer:P and used it an image editor before.
Any further help will be appreciable.
BEST REGARDS,

Then why didn't you mention that you had already tried this approach in the original message? It would have been useful info.

My code has the follwing structure:
public class A {<br />
static MessageBox msgBox;<br />
static Thread boxThread;<br />
<br />
static public showBox(string message) {<br />
boxThread = new Thread(new ParameterizedThreadStart(showForm));<br />
m_thread.Start(message); <br />
}<br />
<br />
static prvate showForm(object blah) {<br />
msgBox = new VWMessageBox();<br />
msgBox.Message = (String)stateinfo;<br />
Application.Run(msgBox);<br />
}<br />
<br />
static public hideBox() { }<br />
msgBox.Close();<br />
boxThread = null;<br />
}
When the other parts of my program try to call hideBox(), it gives me error saying cannot access something thats on another thread. I know that i should somehow use Invoke to call the delegate to hideBox, but this is static, how can i do this?
|
|
|
|
|
public static hideBox()
{
if(msgBox.InvokeRequired)
{
msgBox.Invoke((ThreadStart)hideBox);
}
else
{
msgBox.Close();
boxThread = null;
}
}

Hi everyone,
I'm putting some members and methods in a base class to reuse the code in various derived classes. I don't want the base-class items to be exposed beyond the derived class but I'd prefer direct access to the base-class items from the drived class.
For instance:
public class B
{
public string m;
public void baseFunc()
{
// foo
}
}
public class D : B
{
m = "my string";
baseFunc();
}
What is the proper base-class access modifier to use on m and baseFunc() so that D does not expose these? Perhaps protected?
Thanks.

Yes. The internal modifier might also do what you want, depending on whether you want it to be visible outside the module.
I would make the variables private, though, and provide a public, protected or internal property to access it.

Hi all,
I am looking for any info on how to write a custom control. I want to write my own control which looks like the visual studio .net editor with the text fold option (code folding). Could someone give me a tip on how to start, where to start? I have never written a control before so I am new. I will be using C#.
Many many thanks in advance.

leppie has an open source text editor, AdvancedTextBox, akin to the VS editor. You can find his website with links to the source code here[^].

Hi
for yours custom control you have to derive it from System.Web.UI.UserControl
and there you can add properties as per yours requirements.

I have the following defined in my app.config file:
<configSections>
<sectionGroup name="FeedServices">
<section name="SsnConfiguration" type="FeedLib.SsnConfigurationHandler" />
<section name="AgencyConfiguration" type="FeedLib.AgencyConfigurationHandler" />
<section name="CompConfiguration" type="FeedLib.CompConfigurationHandler" />
</sectionGroup>
</configSections>
<FeedServices>
<SsnConfiguration type="FeedLib.SsnConfiguration">
...
</SsnConfiguration>
<AgencyConfiguration type="FeedLib.AgencyConfiguration">
...
</AgencyConfiguration>
<CompConfiguration type="FeedLib.CompConfiguration">
...
</CompConfiguration>
</FeedServices>
I also have the following code in a .dll file:
config = (SsnConfiguration)ConfigurationManager.GetSection("FeedServices/SsnConfiguration");
I have a command line application with a reference to the .dll file above, and when the above line is called, config is set to null; it's not finding the configuration section. Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.

The value returned from GetSection() will be the object (if any) returned from your IConfigurationSectionHandler.Create() implementation.
Put a breakpoint in your...
FeedLib.SsnConfigurationHandler.Create()
...method - it should get hit and you can see any issues in there.

Hi guys,
I've got a form that has a number of textboxes. When a button is clicked I want the data in the boxes to be sent to the class that opened the form. How do I go about doing this?
In myClass I call the form using
<br />
myForm.Show ();<br />
This opens the form but how then do I get the data from it? It seems to want an instance of the calling class in the myForm, but I can't do this.
Hope that makes sense.

You could expose some properties that the calling class will get when the form is closed. This may be done in numerous ways, one would be to catch the Form.Closed event (the calling class catches the one raised by the called form).
private void OnMyFormClosed(object sender, EventArgs cea)
{
MyForm myForm = (MyForm)sender;
string textBox1content = myForm.TextBox1Content;
}
------------------
As I suggested, there are numerous other ways, like opening the form in modal mode and just wait for the ShowDialog() method to return, but still using properties. Also, you could use a custom event with a EventArgs-derived class containing the data of interest.

I've used the ShowDialog method with properties and it works fine.
Knew it would be fairly straight forward - just not for me.

Could you expound on your explaination a little.
Is the OnMyFormClosed() function located in the parent form?
How do you set an event to trigger when the child closes?
Thanks

Yes

The event is automatically triggered when MyForm closes. To subscribe to it, the parent form needs to do the following, before calling Form.Show().
myForm.Closed += new EventHandler(this.OnMyFormClosed);

If you want to send some data to another object - you have to have reference to this object. In your case this means that your myForm should have reference to base form. something like this:
call the form using myForm.Show(this) or set myForm.Owner = this just befor calling.
Then, on button clicks, you could do something like this:
((OwnerForm)Owner).OkButtonIsClicked();
You could get values of textboxes of myForm if their modifiers are internal or public, but
yYou could do it only if OwnerForm has reference to myForm, if not - you can invoke not OkButonIsClicked(), but OkButtonIsClicked(textBox1.Text, textBox2.Text, etc);

I would not recommend this approach. This design is known as "tight coupling" or "re-coupling", and is an anti-pattern[^].
