Chris or someone from Microsoft.

Can we get any feedback / indication on whether the .net framework library 2.x is going to contain a lightweight 21st century gui subsystem ???

you know with interfaces and oo design, MVC paradigm, extendable, threadsafe, basic html / rtf rendering for all controls.

you know like java/swing but better

I am not suggesting that java/swing is good just that it is way ahead of the 1980's windows api's being regurgitated to us yet again in .NET

What you want will be on Longhorn, not on .net framework

So in 2 years time we all abandon .net and start coding to a new api but only on longhorn. Or do we wait another 2 years (lets see that would be 2007) until .net wraps the new longhorn aero api. Give me a break. Why would / should anyone put up with this.

My original question still stands.

Hi all

OK , after various plugin install uninstalls, VS.NET is pretty much wasted. I dont feel like trying a "repair" as it takes the same time (2hrs??) and that might not even work. Anysuggestions just to reset the VS.NET registry entries?

Have you used a registry cleaner before? Something like : jv16 PowerTools [^] might do the trick. Smile | :)

The problem really is things (such as class wizards) were reset by this one add-in and since uninstalling the app, now wizards work, except custom ones. Maybe ill dump all the CD on HD and let it install overnite.

6.0 to Dot-Net Conversion

I have to convert a beautifully laid out VC++ 6.0 application with many .dsp and lots of support folders for each, to dot-net. Is there a way to easily do the entire app as a whole or do I need to open each and every .dsp, one at a time, into a blank solution and then include all the support folders somehow?

Perhaps there is a tutorial somewhere on how to do the conversion properly?

Thanks

Jonmart

If you open a dsp/dsw, VS.Net will ask you to automatically convert it.
So open your main workspace file with all the projects and say "Yes to all" and that should be it.

like this
static void Main()
{
Application.EnableVisualStyles();
Application.Run(new Form1());
}

but after that,my Treeview lost the item image!
Why?
Thank you!

//I've got it.
Someone in MSDN Newsgroup to do this:
Application.EnableVisualStyles();
Application.DoEvents();
Application.Run(new Form1());

It works. But I still don't know why.
Anyone can help?

Is there a Delphi like Application.ProcessMessages?

EastDragon22-Jul-03 20:40

Is there a Delphi like Application.ProcessMessages in .Net Framework.
Which in a very long loop, the Application.ProcessMessages can process the Messages in the queue. So it is a easier way to respond to the user without having to use multi-thread.
Thank you!

Relative Virtual Addressing

Profox Jase22-Jul-03 1:23

22-Jul-03 1:23

Hello.

I am having a problem understanding the concept of .NET's relative virtual addressing system for elements of an assembly.

To explain, I use a binary reader to examine a .NET dll. By reading various bits of data and using Partition 2 of CLI as a guideline, I am able to obtain RVAs of various portions / elements of the dll.

My problem is, I don't understand how an item with an RVA of 8200 can exist in a file that has myBinaryReader.BaseStream.Length = 3584. Obviously, this is because I do not understand the concept of relative virtual addressing.

I have looked at Ben Peterson's code and article on Codeproject (Asmex Fie Viewer for viewing .net assemblies) but unfortunately, I can't figure it out.

Any help much appreciated, I am getting pretty frustrated and have spent days on this. Mad | :mad:

Uppercase a substitution in regexp

Ian Darling22-Jul-03 0:42

22-Jul-03 0:42

I'm writing a UK Postcode regular expression, and I have the parsing down to something suitable (handling BFPO separately):

(?<Region>[a-zA-Z]{1,2}\d{1,2}).*?(?<Street>\d{1}[a-zA-Z]{2})

And an output of

${Region} ${Street}

This is fine, but I could really do with uppercasing the region and street. Looking around, there are \U and \E tags that do uppercasing in the matching expression, but these don't appear to be supported in the .NET implementation.

Anyone know how I can uppercase the output, either in the match or output expressions? Or am I stuck with uppercasing the string before or after the matching?

You can have a MatchEvaluator called before every replacement to do some changes on the replacement string.
See MSDN docs for an example on the MatchEvaluator Delegate.

Printing a DataGrid

21-Jul-03 2:53

When printing a DataGrid using InvokePaint(myGrid, myPaintArgs) there is a small artifact in the upper left of the print-out. It goes away if the ColumnHeadersVisible property is set to false. I have tried setting the DataSource before setting this property to true thinking it might be a re-size issue.

Is anyone aware of a fix for this problem? Or have any other ideas of what might be causing it?

Thanx...

Dynamic Image in Crystal Reports

Hi,

I'm creating a Crystal Reports report from an XML-file. This file holds some paths to images that I want displayed in the report. However, I can't get an image to get its location from a Crystal Reports field.

Is there a way to do this, and so, how!? I'm using the Visual Studio .NET version of Crystal.

Otherwise I think its a real potention tool, its just this image-thing...
