Interesting article. While I agree there is little point in optimizing for optimization's sake, the real opportunity here is code reuse. Separating your business logic from the interface makes it easier to reuse the code. One has to weigh the benefits against the added complexity

and this is my third - last question guys ;]
i dont want the user to be able to change the selection, i only want the program to be able to change it
overriding OnSelectionChanged() or OnMouseDown() doesnt work
ps. i cant just disable the list box, because i dont want the colors
dimmed, and when you disable a control you dont have any influence on the colors it displays on the screen

myListBox.SelectionMode = System.Windows.Forms.SelectionMode.None;
Hope that helps.

if you set selection mode to none, you CANNOT select any index in the listbox, even programmatically (you get an exception)
i cant do that, because i want the program to be able to select items in the list box

By default:
myListBox.SelectionMode = System.Windows.Forms.SelectionMode.None;
And then use this:
void SetListBoxText(int indexToSetTo)
{
myListBox.SelectionMode = System.Windows.Forms.SelectionMode.One;
myListBox.SelectedIndex = indexToSetTo;
myListBox.SelectionMode = System.Windows.Forms.SelectionMode.None;
}

is it possible to combine two brushes (like use both on the same object on the screen), i.e. LinearGradientBrush and
HatchBrush and fill objects with them (i actually want to draw a
dashed-gradient line, so i do FillRectangle with height=1)
or do I have to crate my own brush class derived from
System.Drawing.Brush?
manson

I believe that the Brush type is an enum and that it does have the [Flags] attribute. So you could say:
myDrawingObject.BrushType = Brush.LinearGradientBrush | Brush.HatchBrush
Hope that works.

ee.. were talking c# here
theres no such thing as Brush.LinearGradientBrush, cos Brush is an abstract class, which is extended by LinearGradientBrush and HatchBrush (which, by the way, are not enums unfortuantely, and cannot be treated with OR operator '|')
and above all, what is BrushType?? no such member in the whole .NET class library either
tell me you were just joking

I wasn't sure if there was a property that was BrushType or not. Sorry about that. I didn't look to confirm. I was thinking about the Brushes class and it's read only properties. But those are for colors.  
Let's start over. What are you trying to draw?

setting MinimumSize for an MdiChild Form does nothing, you can still resize the Form to a smaller size than MinimumSize
checking if the Form has been resized to a smaller size than MinimumSize
(and resizing it back) in the Resize event handler seems the only
solution so far, but it doesnt look good in the runtime of course..
what am i missing?
ps. MaximumSize and MinimumSize do work for MdiParents and non-Mdi Forms, but
they dont work for MdiChildren
at least it looks like it
is there any way around it?

How do i make an enum, such that when you are assigning a property of that enum, you can specify more that one of the flags, e.g.
someThing.Proprty = AnEnum.Foo | AnEnum.Bar;
and is there something special i have to do to find which ones were specified?

Use FlagsAttribute
Here is an example:
[Flags]
public enum AA
{
...
}
43 68 65 65 72 73 2c
4d 69 63 68 61 65 6c

Yes, unfortunately
1. Flags Enums must be bit settable ie
enum MyEnum {
None = 0x00,
FlagA = 0x01,
FlagB = 0x02,
FlagC = 0x04,
FlagD = 0x08,
FlagE = 0x10,
FlagF = 0x20,
FlagG = 0x40,
FlagH = 0x80
}
2. To get the value (this is my difficult part as bit operations is somethin my mind cant process yet). I use this snippet to view Flags.
public static string PrintFlags(object enumvalue)
{
Type t = enumvalue.GetType();
string output = "";
foreach(string enumName in (string[])Enum.GetNames(t))
{
if ((((int)enumvalue) & (int)Enum.Parse(t, enumName)) != 0)
output += "[" + enumName + "]";
}
return output;
}
To get value is something like (from above):
if ((enumvalue & MyEnum.FlagA) != 0) then flag is set, else not set
Hope this helps I think I have learnt something at least

JTJ said i can do this
[Flags]
enum Stuff {
itemA = 1,
itemB = 2,
itemC = 4
}
then to get the ones set, do this
Stuff myStuff = Stuff.itemA | Stuff.itemB;
....
bool hasItemA = (myStuff & Stuff.itemA) == Stuff.itemA;

The 1st part I did like that to show the bit formation
Re, the getting part, thats where my math is &^%&^% with my head.
I cant see how :
bool hasItemA = (myStuff & Stuff.itemA) == Stuff.itemA;
bool hasItemA = (myStuff & Stuff.itemA) != 0;
can be the same ??? To me , mine looks correct, I could be wrong.

& is a bitwise and operator, and works something like this (I'm sure I'll be jumped on if I'm wrong here
Ok, assuming that the myStuff variable contains the bit flags, and exists as:
01001001
Now, assuming that Stuff.itemA is set to 00000001 then performing an AND bitwise operator on the two should yield the following
01001001 +
00000001
---------
00000001
The result will only be 1 where both the parameters are 1, so 1+1=1, 0+1=0, 0+0=0 etc.
Consequently the result ought to be itemA again. As a result, both yours and JTJ's version ought to be correct, since they'll both return a result != 0.

I know that the keystroke program can be done:

However, I don't know about moving the mouse. Sorry about that. Hope the keystroke thing was of some help.

is it possible to call any MFC Dialog in csharp code if yes plz tell how ?

Why not just design your own? VS.NET has a cool dialog editor as part of the resource editor.

Resource files need to be imbedded into your solution. That means that I can't create it without your solution files.

Nope. It's a .rc file and the documentation said that it's tied to the solution. Besides, I don't know what he would want the dialog to look like.
