Does anyone know how to debug a c# .dll that i have included in my vb.net project. Am using visual studio 2005.
thanks in advance

Did you write the dll ? If not, you're out of luck. If you build a debug version of the dll, you should just be able to step into it.

nah i didnt write it, but ive got the source which has been compiled under debug
still not sure how you would step into it and how you would go about setting breakpoints etc from the new project...

You may need to put the dll project into yuor solution, but I don't think so. If yo uset a break point at a call to the dll, I think F11 will step in. If you want breakpoints within the dll, yes, you will need to make the project part of the solution.

Im using vs 2005 to design a database driven program. I went through a video tutorial and designed a database example that worked fine, so i used the exact same structure to design my own.
I have a list box that recieves the list of Groups(Its for a field trip schedule), then each control on the form, the list box, text boxes for group member names etc. is databound to a binding source, this binding source is in turn, bound to the instance of my dataset.
In the tutorial we used this code to save the data:
Me.BindingSource1.EndEdit(me.MyCompanyDataSet1.Customer)
Me.CustomerTableAdapter1.Update(Me.MyCompanyDataSet1.Customer)
and it worked fine, i have added this code, but changed the names to my own:
Me.GroupsBindingSource.EndEdit()
Me.GroupsTableAdapter1.Update(Me.GroupsDataSet1.Groups)
but it still doesn't work. When I load the form i fill the instance of the table adapter that's on my form via:
Me.GroupsTableAdapter1.Fill(Me.GroupsDataSet1.Groups)
Which in turn fills my Listbox and controls. When I change something in runtime, eg Group Name, the change shows on my onscreen data, but when i close and reopen the data its all back to the default and nothing has been permanently saved.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Using the auto generated stuff, you give up a lot of control over your database. However, I notice one change :
Me.BindingSource1.EndEdit(me.MyCompanyDataSet1.Customer)
Me.GroupsBindingSource.EndEdit()
You're not passing in a dataset anymore. Should you be ?

nah, somehow i managed to bind one binding source to another which was bound to a dataset, i fixed this issue. However, I run the program, change some values then save and i can actually see the values change, but when i stop running the program and run it again after some time, all my values are returned to defualt values that i first entered in my table.
Is this a normal thing, do i have to publish export and run my program before i see these changes. Or should they stay changed even after running and closing.

Then your changes were not written/commited to the table. There's still something wrong with your code.

Well I can't figure out what it is. I was wondering if you were able to outline the general structure needed to create an editable( e.g. New, Edit, Remove) database interface. Especially, I was wondering if you could outline exactly the normal code to save/update changes a database that is accessed through:
Binding Source Bound to DataSet bound to database.

If you're using the wizards to create all the objects, I really can't direct you. The wizards generate code all over the place that's difficult to locate, let alone support.
But basically, once the user wants to save changes back to the database, you do something like this:
' For VB.NET 2005
DataAdapter1.AcceptChangesDuringUpdate = True
DataAdapter1.Update(DataSet1)
' For VB.NET 2002 and 2003
DataAdapter1.Update(DataSet1)
DataSet1.AcceptChanges()

I'm not seeing what your trying to describe. You mean you want to show a list of the parent nodes for each child node you click on?? Something like:
Parent1
Parent2
Parent3
ClickedChildNode
Every TreeNode object, whether it's a Parent and/or Child, has a Parent property that returns the parent node of the current node. For example, above, if you clicked on ClickedChildNode, it's Parent property would return the Parent3 treenode. All you have to do is keep getting the parent of each parent node until Parent returns Nothing, meaning your at the top of the tree.

Hi, I need some help with the FOR EACH command, here is my code:
Dim b As New ToolStripMenuItem
For Each b In Me.cmsTestList.Items
Debug.Print(b.Name)
Debug.Print(b.Tag)
If b.CheckOnClick = True Then
If b.Tag = "check" Then
b.Checked = True
Else
b.Checked = False
End If
End If
Next
cmsTestList is of the type Windows.Forms.ContextMenuStrip
and
cmsTestList.Items returns a Windows.Forms.ToolStripItemCollection
I was under the impression that the object "b" will always be of the type: ToolStripMenuItem since I specified explicitly FOR EACH ToolStripMenuItem.
But the code tries looping through other items in my menu such as 'System.Windows.Forms.ToolStripTextBox'. This is not a ToolStripMenuItem as far as I know!
So resultingly the code breaks with the error:
Unable to cast object of type 'System.Windows.Forms.ToolStripTextBox' to type 'System.Windows.Forms.ToolStripMenuItem'.
I would never have thought that type casting will be necessary for this kind of implementation of the FOR EACH x IN command , and I don't know how to deal with this type casting either.
What I need to do is to loop through only the ToolStripMenuItems and not through all the other ToolStripItems as well!
Any ideas?
Kind Regards

It doesn't work the way you are thinking. The for each does not limit the type of controls in the collection. You need to do something like the following:
<br />
for each item as ToolStripItem in cmsTestList.Items<br />
if item.Type is GetType(ToolStripMenuItem) then<br />
'do your work here<br />
end if<br />
next<br />

You need to use the Windows Media Player control, and you can set it to not display anything.

I want to make my form NEVER_Minimizable
to do that.....i;ve done this:--
Protected Overloads Overrides Sub WndProc(ByRef msg As Message)
If msg.Msg = WM_SYSCOMMAND Then
If msg.WParam.ToInt32 = SC_MINIMIZE Then
Else
MyBase.WndProc(msg)
End If
BUT, This never handles Windows + D (Show Desktop) keys..
How to handle that ??

Try removing the control box/minimize button/form border to make it impossible for the user to minimize.

vb.net
when i set alignment of a datagrid's columnheader to right, then the headertext's last letter on the right is halfway hidden. how can i avoid that?
|
|
|
|
|
Increase the column width.
|
|
|
|
|
it's not depending from the column header's width. the last letter is cut anyway.
