Basically, you would implement an interface called IPinProvider, which the form would extend. Then, instead of having your mainform register to listen to the event from the Dll, have it send a reference to itself to the dll. Then the Dll can call the method directly. This will also increase security because a third-party application could not just register for the event from the Dll, and intercept the return value. If you wanted to, you could even check to make sure that the calling assembly is the Dll that you expect it to be from the MainForm class using the System.Reflection namespace.
public Interface IPinProvider {
int GetPin();
}
public class MainForm : Form, IPinProvider {
DllClass myDll = new DllClass();
...
public MainForm() {
myDll.ParentForm = this;
}
...
private int GetPin() {
...
}
}
public class DllClass {
private IPinProvider myPinProvider = null;
public IPinProvider ParentForm {
set { myPinProvider = value; }
}
private int GetPin() {
return (myPinProvider == null ? int.MinValue : myPinProvider.GetPin());
}
}
Hope this helps!

Hello all. Is it possible to have the property's getter public whereas the property's setter protected? Don't know, something like:
string Property
{
public get { return _property; }
protected set { _property = value; }
}
If possible, how can I do so?
Thanks in advance.

What happens when you try it?
The following will work nicely:
<code>public string Property
{
get { return _property; }
protected set { _property = value; }
}</code>

Oh, I see. My code didn't compile whereas yours actually did. Thanks a lot!

No problem 
The one thing to remember is that the accessibility of the property must be greater than or equal to the accessibility of the most accessible getter or setter - that's probably the compile error you were getting.
Without an access modifier, properties by default are protected, but you were trying to make the getter public. Since the property itself was protected, a public getter isn't allowed.

I had no idea you could do this, but have wanted this feature since I started using C#. Good find!

I am getting an ArgumentNullException when I call ToolStripManager.LoadSettings(this) from a form on load event within the application. My scenario is as follows...
public class Panel1 : UserControl {
// This class contains a ToolStripContainer with a unique name, and some toolstrips
}
public class Form1 : Form {
private ToolStripContainer myToolStripContainer;
public Form1() {
Panel1 myPanel = new Panel1();
ToolStripContainer tsc = null;
// Get the ToolStripContainer from myPanel
foreach (Control c in myPanel.Controls) {
if (c is ToolStripContainer) {
tsc = (ToolStripContainer) c;
break;
}
}
// Sets up the default layout
if (tsc != null) {
/* Take all the ToolStrips from myPanel and add them to
* myToolStripContainer in a single row
*/
}
}
protected override void OnLoad(EventArgs e) {
base.OnLoad(e);
// Get the saved layout if it exists (throws unexpected exception)
ToolStripManager.LoadSettings(this);
}
protected override void OnFormClosing(FormClosingEventArgs e) {
base.OnFormClosing(e);
ToolStripManager.SaveSettings(this);
}
}
Does anyone have any idea as to how I can save and reload these settings? I have copied the exception below. Thanks,
ArgumentNullException

Try calling ToolStripManager.LoadSettings in the OnShown method instead. Without starting up Visual Studio and trying it out, I suspect that you are hitting a problem where this hasn't been initialised fully because of the sequence of events when loading the form.

Nope, still getting the same exception.

In the app I'm writing I would like to be able to check if any concurrency violations have occurred on the database it's monitoring in the recent past.
In SQL Server Management studio I can run the command
DBCC CONCURRENCYVIOLATION
which gives me the message back (where I forced concurrency violations):
Concurrency violations since 2007-10-10 10:47:47.383<br />
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10-100 >100<br />
4727 2800 1118 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0<br />
Concurrency violations will be written to the SQL Server error log.<br />
DBCC execution completed. If DBCC printed error messages, contact your system administrator.
So this is the info I need, the way that I'm trying to get it into my program is:
conn.Open();<br />
<br />
conn.InfoMessage += new SqlInfoMessageEventHandler(SqlMessageEventHandler);<br />
<br />
SqlCommand c = new SqlCommand("DBCC CONCURRENCYVIOLATION", conn);<br />
c.ExecuteNonQuery();
where conn is my SQL connection and SqlMessageEventHandler grabs the error message:
public void SqlMessageEventHandler(object sender, SqlInfoMessageEventArgs e)<br />
{<br />
string CVTest = "";<br />
foreach (SqlError err in e.Errors)<br />
{<br />
CVTest += err.Message;<br />
} <br />
<br />
}
The problem is that the "CVTest" sting I'm using to monitor the message only gives me back
DBCC execution completed. If DBCC printed error messages, contact your system administrator.rather than the whole message as in Server Management Studio. This occurs whether the DB I'm checking has violations logged or not.
Does anyone know how I can get all the information that DBCC CONCURRENCYVIOLATION should return?
Alternatively, if anyone knows a better way to programatically check for concurrency violations that have occurred on the database that would be great, since parsing that message to determine can't be the most efficient way.
Thank you.

I might be wrong but have you looked at what is inside the Message property of the SqlInfoMessageEventArgs in your case:
public void SqlMessageEventHandler(object sender, SqlInfoMessageEventArgs e)
{
string CVTest = e.Message;
foreach (SqlError err in e.Errors)
CVTest += Environment.NewLine + err.Message;
}

Hey, thanks for the reply. Yeah, the Message property only contains that one line response as well instead of the whole message.
Anyone have any other ideas on how to check for concurrency violations?
Thanks

Hi all,
I'm having some trouble getting with this:
char temp = System.Console.ReadKey();
//Throws an exception
So I tried System.Console.ReadKey().KeyChar which returns the ascii value of the key I entered...
Basically I need to get a key that falls in the range of 0-10
There's a validation line that handles if temp > 0 || temp < 10... but I can't get the character to convert into an int properly.
Thanks

if (Char.IsNumeric(Readkey().KeyChar)) should tell you if it's a number of not.
Deja View - the feeling that you've seen this post before.

|

|
|
Yeah, I've got the validation portion down...
I need to get the character, which if entered proprly is an integer number, and convert it into an integer for processing.
|
|
|
|
|
Probably an easier way but this seems to work:
int val = Convert.ToInt32(e.KeyChar.ToString());
Good Luck!

The short answer is that you cannot set a password on a folder.
The long answer is that it can be done, but is a total waste of time considering all the work you're going to have to do in C++ to pull it off writing NTFS file system extensions, a management tool to reset passwords, a database manager to maintain the password database, ...
Some of this stuff could be written in C#, but no the extensions to NTFS.
It's a complete waste of time betwen NTFS Security handles all of this and the users doesn't need to remember yet another password on top of the 5, 10, 15, 20+ passwords they already have to remember.

It's not really something you would do from C#, but I'm sure it's possible. Here is how to do it using Windows[^].
What exactly are you trying to accomplish? Are you trying to secure some files for your users, hide files from them, etc?
Take care,
Tom
