Hello ..
For some reason the components that were originally in my toolbox are now gone. There are only a few showing without the ICONS for them and I can't remember all the components that were default ...
Is there anyway to bring back the default components ?
Thks in advance ..

Right click on the toolbox and choose "Customize Toolbox", then click the Reset button on the dialog that comes up.

An unhandled exception of type 'System.ArgumentException' occurred in system.windows.forms.dll
Additional information: Cannot add a top level control to a control.
I get this when I attempt to doc an outlook type toolbar form to my already existing form.

So you're trying to add one form to another? You can't do that unless the parent form is MDIParent = true; and the child form is MDIChild = true; and I don't think that's what you want to do. You could take the Outlook Toolbar type control and putting that into the parent form. That would work.

Yes that is what I am trying to do. All I see is an MDIContainer. Neither of of forms have the option for mdiParent and mdiChild.

I found the methods for the objects. Having trouble actually setting them correctly dispite the given examples I found online? Any idea what to set (syntax) and where to set it from this point?

Look at James' explanation, it's way better than mine would be. *David humbly cedes control of the thread to James, realizing of course, that the C# Guru has, once again, bestowed his knowledge upon us... *

Yes you can
Two forms, Parent and Child:
Child.TopLevel = false;<br />
<br />
Parent.Controls.Add(Child);<br />
<br />
Child.Show();

I ran the producer/consumer threading lock example, and set the breakpoints right after the cell locked. From my understanding, anything within a lock block should by synchronized, and only one thread can enter into a locked block at a time. However, when the program is run, the breakpoints are hit on both of the producer and consumer threads. How can this be?
The code used:
<br />
using System;<br />
using System.Threading;<br />
<br />
public class MonitorSample<br />
{<br />
public static void Main(String[] args)<br />
{<br />
int result = 0;
Cell cell = new Cell( );<br />
<br />
CellProd prod = new CellProd(cell, 20);
CellCons cons = new CellCons(cell, 20);
<br />
Thread producer = new Thread(new ThreadStart(prod.ThreadRun));<br />
Thread consumer = new Thread(new ThreadStart(cons.ThreadRun));<br />
<br />
try<br />
{<br />
producer.Start( );<br />
consumer.Start( );<br />
<br />
producer.Join( );
consumer.Join( ); <br />
}<br />
catch (ThreadStateException e)<br />
{<br />
Console.WriteLine(e);
result = 1;
}<br />
catch (ThreadInterruptedException e)<br />
{<br />
Console.WriteLine(e);
result = 1;
}<br />
Environment.ExitCode = result;<br />
<br />
Console.WriteLine("Finished");<br />
Console.ReadLine();<br />
}<br />
}<br />
<br />
public class CellProd<br />
{<br />
Cell cell;
int quantity = 1;
<br />
public CellProd(Cell box, int request)<br />
{<br />
cell = box;
quantity = request;
}<br />
public void ThreadRun( )<br />
{<br />
for(int looper=1; looper<=quantity; looper++)<br />
cell.WriteToCell(looper);
}<br />
}<br />
<br />
public class CellCons<br />
{<br />
Cell cell;
int quantity = 1;
<br />
public CellCons(Cell box, int request)<br />
{<br />
cell = box;
quantity = request;
}<br />
public void ThreadRun( )<br />
{<br />
int valReturned;<br />
for(int looper=1; looper<=quantity; looper++)<br />
valReturned=cell.ReadFromCell( );<br />
}<br />
}<br />
<br />
public class Cell<br />
{<br />
int cellContents;
bool readerFlag = false;
public int ReadFromCell( )<br />
{<br />
lock(this)
{<br />
Console.WriteLine("Enter ReadFromCell()");<br />
if (!readerFlag)<br />
{
try<br />
{<br />
Monitor.Wait(this);<br />
}<br />
catch (SynchronizationLockException e)<br />
{<br />
Console.WriteLine(e);<br />
}<br />
catch (ThreadInterruptedException e)<br />
{<br />
Console.WriteLine(e);<br />
}<br />
}<br />
Console.WriteLine("Consume: {0}",cellContents);<br />
readerFlag = false;
Monitor.Pulse(this);
Console.WriteLine("Exit ReadFromCell()");<br />
}
return cellContents;<br />
}<br />
<br />
public void WriteToCell(int n)<br />
{<br />
lock(this)
{<br />
Console.WriteLine("Enter WriteToCell()");<br />
if (readerFlag)<br />
{
try<br />
{<br />
Monitor.Wait(this);
}<br />
catch (SynchronizationLockException e)<br />
{<br />
Console.WriteLine(e);<br />
}<br />
catch (ThreadInterruptedException e)<br />
{<br />
Console.WriteLine(e);<br />
}<br />
}<br />
cellContents = n;<br />
Console.WriteLine("Produce: {0}",cellContents);<br />
readerFlag = true;
Monitor.Pulse(this);
Console.WriteLine("Exit WriteToCell()");<br />
}
}<br />
}<br />

When you call Monitor.Wait() from within the lock, the lock is released and that thread waits for another thread to call Pulse. When that happens, the lock will be re-acquired and the process will continue.

Ah, I see now. I knew I was missing something, but couldn't quite put my finger on it. Thanks for the tip!

Hi,
I don't see that crappy setup tool that comes w/ Visual Studio anywhere ? Did I not install it? Am I missing something here ? I have a simple C# app I need to distrubute.
Can someone explain what is involved ? Will it work on WIN98?WIN95?
Thks in advance .

In my VS.NET (Pro edition) I can find the setup tool under New Project -> Setup and Deployment Projects
Deploying a C# app doesn't require much. Install the .NET framework if it isn't installed and copy the .exe's and .dlls you need to the same directory.
If you use any 3rd party tools/controls refer to their documentation for how you need to deploy their stuff.

It will work in Win98, .NET isn't supported on Win95

What's the equivalent of VB's CreateObject or MFC's CreateDispatch in C#?
Don't want to use references but instead create object by progID.
|
|
|
|
|
Have a look at System.Activator .

And combine with Type.GetTypeFromCLSID or Type.GetTypeFromProgID .
object CreateObject(string progID)
{
Type T = Type.GetTypeFromProgID(progID, true);
return Activator.CreateInstance(T);
}
object CreateObject(string progID, string server)
{
Type T = Type.GetTypeFromProgID(progID, server, true);
return Activator.CreateInstance(T);
}

I only want to display a tooltip if it is within a certain area of a specific control, but the current Tooltip class needs you to specify a control, and doesnt disappear until the mouse moves away from that item.
so far, my only solution is to create a new tooltip class, which i will start work on now, but do any of you know an easier way?

Add an empty label control with a size fitting this area, and attach a tooltip. Not even one line of code!
sometimes it helps to look at the IL generated code
a MS guy on develop.com "answering" .NET issues
|
|

|

but this will cover the area so u cant see it [its a custom control] and when i set the backcolor to Color.Transparent, the tooltip doesnt appear.
[edit]
and this area also has to be clicked on.

Hi,
I have created a Deployment Project for which I would like to get the data from the Customer Details dialog box.
Does anyone know how to get the serial number or the Organization field from this dialog ... there must be a way !!!!
Thanks,

The registry
Give them a chance! Do it for the kittens, dear God, the kittens!
As seen on MS File Transfer: Please enter an integer between 1 and 2.

That's what I thought ... but it seems stupid to me that I then have to go to the registry to get the values, when if I use a text box dialog I can get directly at the values....
Thanks anyway for your help - you have confirmed my fear !
