Alright, I'm at a loss. I'm trying to get a TextBox to display WPF's default red border around the control. I know for a fact that the error condition is being detected, but the border color isn't changing. I think I'm just bench blind, but I've been playing with this for two days now with no success. Can anyone see/think of anything I'm doing wrong?
0) I've implemented IDataErrorInfo on my control (which already inherits INotifyPropertyChanged ):
public partial class WizPgQuery : WizardPageBase, IDataErrorInfo
{
public string this[string columnName]
{
get
{
string value;
switch (columnName)
{
case "ClassName": value = this.ValidateClassName(); break;
case "QueryText": value = this.ValidateQueryText(); break;
default : value = string.Empty; break;
}
return value;
}
}
public string Error
{
get { throw new NotImplementedException(); }
}
1) I have my property and validation routines implemented
private string className;
public string ClassName
{
get { return this.className; }
set
{
if (value != this.className)
{
this.className = value;
this.NotifyPropertyChanged();
}
}
}
private string ValidateClassName()
{
string value = (this.ClassName.IsValidClassName())
? ""
: "The class name must be a valid C# identifier.";
if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(value)) { SystemSounds.Beep.Play(); }
return value;
}
2) My XAML looks like this:
<TextBox x:Name="textboxClassName" Grid.Column="1"
Text="{Binding Path=ClassName,
Mode=TwoWay,
ValidatesOnDataErrors=True,
ValidatesOnExceptions=True,
NotifyOnValidationError=True,
UdateSourceTrigger=PropertyChanged}"
TextChanged="TextboxClassName_TextChanged"
ToolTip="Base tool tip" />
3) No dynamic/static resources defined that might override WPF's default presentation behavior

That's for setting the tooltip (on error). I just want the border to turn red (which is supposed to be the default behavior).

well, i created a simple app that just had a TextBox with IDataErrorInfo, and it works as expected, so now I have to figure out what I did to make this not work in my much larger and complex app... At first blush, I thought I might have done something in a textbox style somewhere, but I don't have any "global" styles for textboxes anywhere in the code.
This is gonna suck. :/

Hi Everyone,
Currently I am working on a Windows Desktop Application made in WPF and .NET Core 3.0. Recently my client asked me to implement push notifications in my Desktop Application. The scenario is if there are multiple users that are working on the application on different computers.. for our example lets assume 2 users working on 4 systems (each user logged in to 2 computers) and suppose User1 had done some operation on his system so I want that a push notification should go to User1 logged in on another Computer. Also, User2 should not receive any notification for obvious as operation is performed by User 1. I am not sure how to achieve this functionality in WPF based desktop application. Can some one help here?
Thanks,
Kashish

You're not going to be able to "push"; you need clients (software) that poll a server / database for new messages.

Hi Gerry,
Is there any way instead of polling the server that whenever Server push the notifications in case of any database changes i can receive it instantly. Polling will be a little bit delay. Server is in PHP and my client is WPF desktop application.

Along the lines of what Dave said, it is possible to "broadcast"; assuming someone is listening. Master and slaves (I've used MODBUS over serial and tcp/ip).

Without knowing any details about your app at all (and "it's a WPF app doesn't help), you might be able to do this without a server.
The app could use UDP broadcasts to send a message out so that the same app, using UDP clients listening for the broadcasts could receive them.
The implementation details would be left up to you since you're the only one who knows anything about your app.

Why are ticks on a DispatcherTimer so unstable? Even at 500 msec. Is there anything you can due to stabilize it?
I am reading analog data from IO and want to update the graph of it. It does not need to be that fast but it looks odd when it keeps jumping at an random intervals. I can deal with long jumps if they are consistent.
So many years of programming I have forgotten more languages than I know.

I should have noted that I can do a simple while loop with a sleep in it and get better results. It still seems like the tick from DispatcherTimer should do better.

What interval and how far off are we talking?
Windows is not a real-time O/S, so getting an exact interval isn't possible. Events or callbacks are guaranteed to occur NO SOONER THAN your interval. That doesn't mean that it will execute ON that interval.
|
|
|
|
|
I sat the interval for 500 ms. Hard to measure but the trace has a jerky motion. It is much smoother when I use a simple while loop with a sleep in it. Setting the sleep for 20ms gives a nice smooth plot.

Quote: Timers are not guaranteed to execute exactly when the time interval occurs, but they are guaranteed to not execute before the time interval occurs. This is because DispatcherTimer operations are placed on the Dispatcher queue like other operations. When the DispatcherTimer operation executes is dependent on the other jobs in the queue and their priorities.
In other words, you need a separate timing device if you want "stability".

It is probably also effected by the debugger in Visual Studio. It really makes the DispatcherTimer useless for delays under a minute.

What is the difference between Show/Hide or Visible/Hidden"? I have some windows I need to keep running in the background. Searching for something yesterday I came accost a comment that said that Show/Hide are obsolete in a Wpf and I should be using the other. I cannot really find a difference except that Visible/Hidden has an event you can tie to the change.

I have a UserControl on a TabView that has a DependencyProperty of type Project. Project is an object.
public static readonly DependencyProperty ProjectProperty =
DependencyProperty.Register("Project",
typeof(ProjectEntity),
typeof(PurchaseOrderView),
new PropertyMetadata(null, new PropertyChangedCallback(OnProjectChanged)));
public ProjectEntity Project
{
get { return (ProjectEntity)GetValue(ProjectProperty); }
set { SetValue(ProjectProperty, value); }
}
private static void OnProjectChanged(DependencyObject d, DependencyPropertyChangedEventArgs e)
{
PurchaseOrderView control = (PurchaseOrderView)d;
control.LoadPurchaseOrders();
}
<h1>endregion</h1>
When the control is first loaded, and the binding occurs, Project is set to the instance, and everything works fine.
However, when I select another tab, the control's CTOR and DP's Changed method fire AGAIN and now Project is Null and casues null ref exceptions.
I'm not really sure what's going on. Is it unbinding somehow?? I don't really know how to diagnose this.
I found this article that discusses the Tab Control removing and replacing its content when the tabs change, and I tried using the solution, but it doesn't work.
Anyone have an ideas?
If it's not broken, fix it until it is.
Everything makes sense in someone's mind.

I have a bunuch of styles in App.xaml. In just about each, I have this trigger. It enabled the element (Textbox, checkbox, listbox, etc) when the user clicked Edit, AND, if the use has rights. It works well.
<Style.Triggers>
<MultiDataTrigger>
<MultiDataTrigger.Conditions>
<Condition Binding="{Binding AreFieldsEnabled}" Value="True" />
<Condition Binding="{Binding CanUserEdit}" Value="True" />
</MultiDataTrigger.Conditions>
<MultiDataTrigger.Setters>
<Setter Property="IsEnabled" Value="True" />
</MultiDataTrigger.Setters>
</MultiDataTrigger>
</Style.Triggers>
The problem is that it's copied & pasted into each of the elements. How can I define this somewhere and resuse it in each element I need it in?
Thanks

hi i have problem load usercontrol in background worker,can anyone help me?
this is my code
Private Sub bwstartup_DoWork(sender As Object, e As DoWorkEventArgs) Handles bwstartup.DoWork
'load some data
LoadData()
bwstartup.ReportProgress(15)
LoadData2()
bwstartup.ReportProgress(20)
Dispatcher.Invoke(Sub() LoadUserControl())
bwstartup.ReportProgress(30)
Dispatcher.Invoke(Sub() LoadUserControl2())
bwstartup.ReportProgress(40)
End Sub
Private Sub bwstartup_ProgressChanged(sender As Object, e As ProgressChangedEventArgs) Handles bwstartup.ProgressChanged
loadingbar.Value = e.ProgressPercentage
End Sub
Private Sub bwstartup_RunWorkerCompleted(sender As Object, e As RunWorkerCompletedEventArgs) Handles bwstartup.RunWorkerCompleted
End Sub
the problem is:
its work on reportprogress(15) to reportprogress(20)
but then freeze until completed LoadUserControl2
so reportprogress(30) is not showing.
thx

It's your "load" routines that are the problem (and any other code you are not showing).

sorry if my information is not complete.it just because on
my "load" routines have full code,it will have long if i paste here.
it is a window contain input form.
i finally solve the problem with changing this :
Dispatcher.Invoke(Sub()
LoadUserControl())
bwstartup.ReportProgress(30)
to this :
action = Sub() LoadUserControl()
Dispatcher.Invoke(DispatcherPriority.Background, action)
bwstartup.ReportProgress(30)
the progressbar start to update again.
thx for the reply

The code you posted doesn't have anything to do with the problem as far as we can tell.
If you're trying to create and manipulate controls in the background worker, you can't. Controls have to be created on the UI thread, the thread your app started on.
If you're adding data to controls, you cannot do it from a background worker. You cannot touch or modify controls from anything other than the UI thread.
You can load the data you need into data structures in the background worker, but adding that data to controls must be done on the UI thread.

the problem i want try to solve is like this:
i create application with have some inputform/window
on my button if i call inputform.show the ui is freeze for 0.xx second
cause it have many control inside
so i try to preload the inputform/window n put progressbar to show
to the user.
thx for reply

How many controls are you talking about?
What do you mean by "preload"? Are you creating a lot of controls? If so, you really need to rethink your form design. If you're loading a lot of data into these controls, again, you really need to rethink your form design. For example, there is no point in loading 100,000 items into a dropdown list. No user will ever put up with using that.
