DropDown event Occurs when the drop-down portion of a ComboBox is shown.
we can use the event when the text changed in the combobox.

This event is raised if the Text property is changed by either a programmatic modification or user interaction.

private void currencyTextBox_TextChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
try
{
// Convert the text to a Double and determine if it is a negative number.
if(double.Parse(currencyTextBox.Text) < 0)
{
// If the number is negative, display it in Red.
currencyTextBox.ForeColor = Color.Red;
}
else
{
// If the number is not negative, display it in Black.
currencyTextBox.ForeColor = Color.Black;
}
}
catch
{
// If there is an error, display the text using the system colors.
currencyTextBox.ForeColor = SystemColors.ControlText;
}
}

Read N chars (N = length of the string you're matching) from the filestream into a test string. Test the buffer against the search string. If they don't match delete the leading character from the test string, read a single character from the file, append it to the test string and test again. repeat until you find a match or reach the end of the file.

I have a combobox and is populated from a datatable.

PropertyGrid & UITypeEditor - PLS HELP

Hi All,
I was not able to display complex classes in the propertygrid and hence had to use UITypeEditors for doing that.
I am actually trying to display the properties of a class object inside the property grid which has another class object as one of its property .(can go deep)
The problem is that the object which is the property is getting grayed out even though i am using UITypeEditor (Comboboxlisteditor) to do so.
So no point in thinking of more deeper object properties.
I have tried all places to search for such a code which has a propertygrid displaying complex classes and enums . I could not find one .
So please spare some time and pass on some simple code which can display complex class objects and enums inside the propertygrid .I just need the minimum . I have referred to MSDN and few other articles from codeproject which was helpful to a certain extent but not for this problem .
I have spent more than 3-4 days in researching the things on this .
Please help me in getting it done .
Thanks and Regards,
DJ

Thanks for that Leppie.
But i dont want to use typeconverters, rather i would like to use custom type editors to solve my problem . wish i can get some piece of sample code which is tested having the required attributes.Because the attribute is not being able to pick up properly which is as follows

[Editor("WindowsFormsPropertyBag1.Form1.ComboBoxListEditor",typeof(System.Drawing.Design.UITypeEditor))]. Do you need more information about the problem??.

Handshaking with an event inside a DLL?

Good Day People,

I have a DLL. It takes in some parameters, and returns some output. This DLL has to be called form a EXE, which has a GUI Interface.

The portion of code where the DLL returns the solutin is pasted below.

The doubt is; when I call the DLL it returns "n" solutions. I need to take the first solution and show output, while the DLL should be proessing the other solutions.

So I think I should be raising an event, that outputs the first solution. I dot know how to handshake between my EXE and DLL properly. Can you assist?
------------------------------------------------
Code:
------------------------------------------------

forward = true;
while (!myStack.IsEmpty())
{
if (forward)
{
CurrentPtr = -1;
}
else
{
CurrentPtr = (int) myStack.Pop();
CurrentSolution.RemoveAt(myStack.Count);
myArray.RemoveAt(CurrentSolution);
}
CurrentWord = this.Problem.NthWord(myStack.Count);
strExistingWord = myArray.GetStringAt(CurrentWord);
myDict = (Dict) Dicts[myStack.Count];
newPtr = myDict.GetWord(strExistingWord,CurrentPtr, ref strNewWord);

if (newPtr != -1 )
{
CurrentWord.Word= strNewWord;
CurrentSolution.AddWord(CurrentWord);
myStack.Push(newPtr);
myArray.StoreAt(CurrentWord);
forward = true;

if(myStack.Count == this.ProblemSize)
{
Solution newSolution = CurrentSolution.Clone();
this.alSolutions.Add(newSolution);
//return;

// newSolution.writeSolution();
// System.Console.ReadLine();

forward = false;
}
}
else
{
forward = false;

// show the combinations
//this.show(myStack.ToArray());
//System.Console.Write("{0} ", ShowInPC(myStack.ToArray(),Dicts));
}
}
return;

Hello again! I'm on the last stretch of my 1st ever c# program and I really need help in solving this last, yet possibly hardest problem i've encountered yet.

Well I have this program that saves the output of my query in a datagrid into text file. I've accomplished half of it meaning I can save it at a target location but:

1. Why can I only save it in specific folders like c:\Temp? I'm hoping I could save it on the desktop.

2. Why doesn't a command prompt appear when I click the save button? It save directly and doesn't even inform the user that it has been saved although it already is.

3. How do I solve this problem?

I've tried searching the net for possible solutions but failed. Here's my code:

private void btnSave_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e)

dtMain = objBM.fMain(DropDownList1.SelectedItem.Value,DropDownList2.SelectedItem.Text);
StreamWriter sr = File.CreateText("c://Temp//SSS.txt");
string strout;
if (dtMain.Rows.Count > 0)
{
for (int intptr = 0; intptr <= dtMain.Rows.Count - 1; intptr++)
{
strout = " ";
for (int intptr2 = 0; intptr2 <= dtMain.Columns.Count - 1; intptr2++)
{
strout += dtMain.Rows[intptr].ItemArray[intptr2] + " ";
}
sr.WriteLine(strout);
}
}
sr.Close();
}

Any and all suggestions, reactions and informations would be greatly appreciated. Thanx for all your helps!

thanx

1) you can save it anywhere you choose to - try searching for Environment.SpecialFolders.Desktop to find out more about getting the desktop directory. At the moment you are creating a file in the specific path with this line - StreamWriter sr = File.CreateText("c://Temp//SSS.txt");

2)If you want a dialog to appear try looking into the saveFileDialog control (it should be on the toolBox by default)
Then you could use the FileOk event of this control to save the file to wherever the user has selected.

Predefined Macros

Are there some compiler or .NET framework predefined macros, such as the _ATL_VER, _MFC_VER, _MSC_VER for the C#?

Macros suck, I regret that C# supports them at all. Yes, I believe there is DEBUG for debug versions, and TRACE also. They are shown in the project properties for a debug build, you can add more.

I do not see what is regretable about macro support in C#. You simply do not have to use what you do not have a use for. I needed to create an interface library for both .NET 1.1 and 2.x, and do not want to do this again. So, I want to have something like

#if version 1.x
IPositionList Positions
#else // version 2.x
List<IPosition> Positions
#endif 
{
    get;
}
where is a IPositionList is a strongly-typed list of IPosition for use in
the version 1.x.

I do not know if anything else can do this better than macros. I will defined my own macros - just trying to find out if "standard macros" exist
for this kind of stuff.

Best regards,
Paul.

I agree, I have been thinking of using the C/C++ preprocesser on C# but havent got that far :p As CG said, DEBUG TRACE are common defines, but they are ONLY used inside the project your are compiling and has no effect on dependant assemblies, like u would have in C/C++.

So your best bet is to use something like VERSION_1 and VERSION_2. Remember you can use this to your advantage as follows (the compiler might have some issues IIRC):

#define VERSION_1
using AnyPositionList =
#if VERSION_1
IPositionList
#else
List<IPosition>
#endif
;

Now in your code:

AnyPositionList Positions
{
  get ..... ;
}

I agree with Stroustrup on macros. I think they suck. Having said that, I can't imagine any way of supporting a debug build without them, so I'm sure I'll use them at some point.

Paul Selormey wrote:

Sure. The version 1.x code will just work in both cases though.

Optional Parameter in C#

18-Jul-05 18:55

Hi all...
Can there be an optional or default parameter in C#? If yes what would be the syntax of the same?

Re: Optional Parameter in C#

Christian Graus18-Jul-05 19:02

Christian Graus

18-Jul-05 19:02

You can define a params collection, otherwise you need to write several methods like this":

void DoSomething(int i, int j, in k)
{

}

void DoSomething(int i, int j)
{
DoSomething(i, j, 5);
}

void DoSomething(int i)
{
DoSomething(i, 2, 5);
}

Obviously, this is less than ideal.

Re: Optional Parameter in C#

18-Jul-05 19:27

Ya...one option is of method overloading, but when we have more number of params to be kept as optional one has to type a lot. Is there any other work around as in VB.NET we have an optional keyword which specifies the parameter is optional and with the specified default value.

Use Ctrl+Left/Right to switch messages, Ctrl+Up/Down to switch threads, Ctrl+Shift+Left/Right to switch pages.
