I am having problems getting the column order in a DataGridView object to display how I want it. Here are my objects:
Data object
<br />
class CData<br />
{<br />
private uint id;<br />
private string name;<br />
private object otherstuff;<br />
...
public uint ID{<br />
get{ return id; }<br />
set{ id = value; }<br />
}<br />
...
I then create multiple CData objects and place them in a List<CData> object "myList". When I go to bind this list to a DataGridView I use the following code
<br />
BindingList<CData> bindlist = new BindingList<CData>(myList);<br />
myDataGridView.DataSource = bindlist;<br />
myDataGridView.Refresh()<br />
the problem comes when my form is shown and my data is presented. Currently I can not figure out how to order the columns generated from my CData class properties. By default I thought they would show up in the order that they are declared like:
| ID | Name | OtherData |
but I find that the order is chosen at random (or some other factor I can not figure out) and they display something like:
| OtherData | ID | Name |
Now normally this wouldnt be too big of a problem but in my real world application I am using a Data object with over 100 fields which are generated from a file with a strict structure layout and it is critical that I see my columns in the proper order.
I hope I explained this properly and would appreciate any help that can be offered on the matter.
Thank you.
PS: If some moderator or something feels I will get more response in the C# forum, please move this post or advise me to move it.

Hi,
I heard 2.0 is not compatible with 1.1. Is that truee? and do all the code written by vs 2003 can be compiled without change?
I am thinking move to vs 2005!

Are they compatible? In most cases, yes! But it depends on the specific code.
Does all code written in 2003 compile without change in 2005? No, but most does. Some modification will be necessary in some places, but again, it depends on the specific code.
You can read through the Breaking Changes in .NET Framework 2.0[^] for more information.

Dave,
Thanks for the link. I've been wondering about any issues between 1.1 and 2.0 migrating.

I have a Dataset that has returned data from SQL Server. I would like to read in what the SQL Server type is for each Column and what the size is. For instance is the column is a nvarchar(20) I would like to be able to find out that the column has a size of 20. Is this possible? I can't seem to figure this out even using the DataColumn.
DataColumn.MaxLength is returning -1.
I tried also SQL Command:
SELECT COL_LENGTH('MyTable','MyColumnName') AS 'MyColumnLength'
it's running fine in SQL Query analyzer but it's returning 0 in C#
Any idea?
thanks

dear all,
I want to know manually dispose() is better than destructor().If you know that, sent message for me. (thanks.)
With Regards.

Ummm... What?
Are you asking which is better? Neither! Each individual object has its own requirements for calling .Dispose. Such as all the GDI objects (Graphics, Bitmap, Image, Icon, ...) all require you to call their .Dispose methods when you're done with them. Not doing so will result in OutOfMemory Exceptions sooner or later.
Pretty much, the rule of thumb is if the object requires an underlying system handle or other unmanaged resource, you MUST call .Dispose on that object when you're done with it.

There's hundred of them! All you need to do is Google for ".NET Framework tutorials"...
But The Code Project is a good place to start!

Dave is right. Myself, I have this site bookmarked, heck, even as the default startup page for that matter, and numerous other sites that pertain to anything for .Net bookmarked. This site is a definite starting point.
Happy .Net programming,
Paul

Other than this site:
* msdn.microsoft.com/[^] - The Microsoft Developers Network is the premium resource from MS.
* DotNetRocks[^] - Podcasts that teach you about various aspects of .NET
* dnrTV[^] - Video tutorial/interviews from DotNetRocks team.
I recommend listening to DotNetRocks when you are driving or doing your daily commute. It is an excellent source of information during an otherwise dead time.

Greetings all.
I've made an e-mail module for a client where they can send e-mails with attachments to their clients.
To minimize against faulty entered e-mails I've made some functionality which removes e-mail adresses which are rejected by the server (error 550).
However, then I found something strange.
When ever I try to send an e-mail, the attachments get cleared, meaning that my recovery functionality will remove 550-faulty addresses and resend the e-mail but this time withouth the attachment.
I've found that if I send the mail successfully - the attachment is also removed after the send.
I'm using a wrapper-class around System.Web.Mail namespace and using smtp.mail.send(mailobject) to send the e-mail. There is not much to this wrapper class except some functionality to check whether recipient(s) and sender have been added.
Attachments get added by: "myMailObject.Attachments.Add(New MailAttachment(fileName))"
Now - to make the short story longer ....
Is this "clearing" of attachments inherit .net behaviour? Or would the problem lay elsewhere?
Regards

Never tried it, so I never noticed it. But, a workaround is pretty easy. Keep track of the email attachment filenames yourself and don't rely on the MailMessage object to do it for you. If you need to put the attachments back, you already have your own list to refer to so you can do it again.

Yep - it is no problem doing a workaround, I did that myself along the same line you mention because my attachments are already persisted in a database.
I was just wondering if it was .net behaviour (or messed up code I'm using) and possible if anybody knew something about why 
Thanks for the reply.

No idea. I don't see anything in the System.Web.Mail classes that would clear out the Attachments collection. The code never deletes anything from the collection and the collection is never refreshed from the contents of the underlying COM object either.
From the Framework's perspective, if the collection is being cleared out, you're doing it somehow.
But I find that hard to believe.

Thanks for the feedback.
I didn't read anything about this in the framework description either, but I just couldn't read out of the wrapper code that it would do something like this.
I'll try to debug the wrapper intensely and test it, to see if I can find this disparity.

Basicly I want to be able to compress a String using System.IO.Compression to another String and be able to decompress it later.
I want to use this for compressing XML (and other string values) into a String variable which I store elsewhere. It MUST be compressed to a String - no binary data.
Also, I do not want to save the XML to a file and compress/decompress from there; compressing/decompressing must be in-memory only.
Any advice or sample code (VB.NET or C#) ?
Thanks in advance

You do realize that the Compression class only outputs binary data? Outputs to any stream by the way, even a MemoryStream object. You can find an example here[^].

Yes, but this can be converted (encoded) to/from a String with .NET (can't remember the class name right now).
Also, I'm NOT looking for something to compress a stream...
Anybody else, please ?

Actually, you are! Consider the String as just a stream of characters in memory. See this[^] for more information.

You could probably do what you want with a StringBuilder[^] object.

Yes, you are right - but I'm looking for some code which shows me how to do it in more detail 
I got the compression code to work just fine, but can't seem to decompress it.
Here's the compression code which seems to work :
Public Function CompressString(ByVal strInput As String) As String
Dim buffer() As Byte = Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(strInput)
Dim memoryBuffer As New MemoryStream()
Dim compressedZipStream As New GZipStream(memoryBuffer, CompressionMode.Compress, False)
compressedZipStream.Write(buffer, 0, buffer.Length)
compressedZipStream.Close()
Return Convert.ToBase64String(memoryBuffer.GetBuffer)
End Function
Dave Kreskowiak wrote: You could probably do what you want with a StringBuilder[^] object.
Ok, but Convert.ToBase64String seems to work also

|

OK. That seems to work. Now how about the decompression code? It should be doing the exact same thing in reverse...
