I didn't know you could do that! I'll look into XML, so would you still just use an xmlreader? I'm not a complete newb to programming but am to working with files.

Thanks

No not a XMLReader.

Define your recipe as a dataset (drag on onto your form), go to properties and set the table, then set the columns in the table.

Add a row, filling it with the recipe information the user enters (i assume)

to save it to disk use DataSetName.WriteXML(name of file here)

if the user want's to open the dataset use the ReadXML method of your dataset passing it the filename to open. you can get this as a command line argument to your app.

MSDN or Google: Dataset.WriteXML, DataSet.ReadXML, C# Command Line Arguments, SaveFileDialog, OpenFileDialog

Sorry it is brief but I am about to run out. I will be back in an hour if you still have no luck, but the MSDN documentation for dataSets and XML is great

When I run my ASPX page I receive the following error message:

Hi there,

IMO, the error is describing pretty well. You might have 2 forms with the runat='server' attribute. Can you post the form's code here?

Do you think it's talking about the two "runat" I have in the following code:

<asp:datagrid id="_gdl
" width="100%"
="" runat="server" allowcustompaging="true" allowpaging="true" onpageindexchanged="Grid_Change" pagesize="10
">

If so, then should I delete " Runat="server" "?
Thanks!

Composite Pattern and Generics

15-Dec-05 8:25

Hmm. If I new what master page was I could tell you. When I deleted " Runat="server" " I didn't receive the error message anymore. Now I have initialize _gdl.VirtualItemCount somewhere because it doesn't like that.
As far as I know VirtualItemCount is a predefined function. When I place my cursor over the function, the tool tip says "Gets or sets the virtual number of items in the System.Web.UI.WebControls.Datagrid control when custom paging is used".

This is the first chunk of code I have after defining the namespace:

public class DataGridPage : Page
{
private int _startIndex=0;
protected DataGrid _gdl;

protected void Page_Load(object Src, EventArgs e)
{
if (!IsPostBack)
{
_gdl.VirtualItemCount = GetItemCount();
_startIndex = _gdl.VirtualItemCount-_gdl.PageSize;
BindGrid();
}
}

Thanks!

Hi,

I have a little Generic problem.
Look a this very simplified Composite Pattern:

public abstract class BaseClass
{
}

public class Leaf
{
}

public class LeafA : Leaf
{
}

public class LeafB : Leaf
{
}

public class Composite<TChild> where TChild : BaseClass
{
  private List<TChild> _children = new List<TChild>();
  public List<TChild> Children { get { return _children;}}
}

Now in the main program I create a sample tree structure:

Composite<BaseClass> root = new Composite<BaseClass>();

root.Children.Add(new LeafB());
root.Children.Add(new LeafA());


Composite<LeafA> comp = new Composite<LeafA>();
comp.Children.Add(new LeafA());
comp.Children.Add(new LeafA());

root.Children.Add(comp);

comp = new Composite<LeafB>();
comp.Children.Add(new LeafB());
comp.Children.Add(new LeafB());

root.Children.Add(comp);

How i can check, if the childnode is a Composite ?
I ever get back a null

foreach (BaseClass b in root.Children)
{
  // test if Leaf
  if (b is Leaf)
  {
  }
  // else it must be Composite
  else
  {
    Composite<BaseClass> child = (b as Composite<BaseClass>); // child is null after this cast
  }
}

How I can solve this ?

thx for your help

A Static class Serialization problem

Hi..

i have a Class, that has 3 DataMembers, all three are Static...
whenever i try to Serialize her, the output XML is EMPTY!
Please do help,

Here is the Class code, and Xml Serializer code...

The Class
-------

using System;
using System.IO;
using System.Xml;
using System.Runtime.Serialization.Formatters.Binary;
using System.Xml.Serialization ;

namespace ShipurSherut
{
[Serializable]
public class AppSettings
{
public static String Merhav;
public static String Yeud;
public static String ServerAddress;

static AppSettings()
{

}
}
}

The Xml Serializer:
--------------

public static void ToXml(Object objToXml,string filePath,bool includeNameSpace)
{
StreamWriter stWriter=null;
XmlSerializer xmlSerializer;
try
{
xmlSerializer = new XmlSerializer(objToXml.GetType());
stWriter = new StreamWriter(filePath);
if (!includeNameSpace)
{
System.Xml.Serialization.XmlSerializerNamespaces xs= new XmlSerializerNamespaces();
xs.Add("","");//To remove namespace and any other inline information tag
xmlSerializer.Serialize(stWriter, objToXml,xs);
}
else
{
xmlSerializer.Serialize(stWriter, objToXml);
}
}
catch(Exception exception)
{
throw exception;
}
finally
{
if(stWriter!=null) stWriter.Close();
}
}

If you only have static fields, there is no data in the object, so there is nothing to serialize.

b { font-weight: normal; }

HolyGrandFather16-Dec-05 8:59

16-Dec-05 8:59

So, Maybe i missunderstood the whole meaning of Static.. i thought a claasic datamembers , let's me , save my data at a class, that don't need and instance in order for me to read the data... a sort of public class. that i can approach from every class in my project./

in that case , i wanted to take the data from my xml file( the application settings) and then use it in multiple classes, without havin the need to open instances of the same class , and double my data....

am i missing the propuse of the static class?

Guffa18-Dec-05 0:48

Guffa

18-Dec-05 0:48

No, that is correct. The static members reside in the class. But you are serializing an object, not the class.

---
b { font-weight: normal; }

HolyGrandFather18-Dec-05 5:27

18-Dec-05 5:27

ok, How can i serialize the class?

Guffa18-Dec-05 22:51

Guffa

18-Dec-05 22:51

You can't serialize a class, as a class can not be dynamically created.

One way to serialize the static information could be to put the fields in a separate class, and put a static instance of that class in the original class:

public class MyInfo {<br />
string info, moreInfo, excessInfo;<br />
}<br />
<br />
public class MyClass {<br />
static MyInfo info = new MyInfo();<br />
}

Then you can add serialization to the info class, and serialize the static instance.

b { font-weight: normal; }
