PIEBALDconsult,

IsNullOrEmpty is not recommended as it can throw an exception which you wouldn't expect.

I have only ever seen this bug reproduced in the do-nothing example, not in any real code.

Despite everything, the person most likely to be fooling you next is yourself.

This only applies in a very specific case and, if you move to .NET 3.5, it's been fixed.

Every method that does something like "return someObject == null || someObject.SomeProperty == someValue;" can cause that exception (but only if it's called in a useless loop).
And it's fixed in .NET 2.0 SP1.

How to Set multiple items as selected in a ListBox with c# [modified]

I have a ListBox set as Multiselect. I am populating the table thruough asp.net code. But I am using another dataset to get the items that should be selected. The only item that ends up selected is the last item in the dataset, and I know in several cases there are at least two items that should be selected. The code I am using for setting the selected items is:

DataSet ds1 = SqlHelper.ExecuteDataset(ConnStr, "StoredProd", Parm);

lbRequestTime.SelectionMode = ListSelectionMode.Multiple;

foreach (DataRow row in ds1.Tables[0].Rows)
{
lbRequestTime.SelectedValue = row["PerfTimeId"].ToString();
}

Any help on how to get the Mulitple selected items selected would be great.

Thanks, Doug

Hi,
you can use the following code

<br />
ListItem li;<br />
foreach (DataRow row in ds1.Tables[0].Rows)<br />
{<br />
  li = lbRequestTime.Items.FindByValue(row["PerfTimeId"].ToString());<br />
  if (li != null)<br />
     li.Selected = true;<br />
}<br />

Do let me know if you need more info.

Cheers...

Com interop -> IUnknown from hWnd

Chris Mierzejewski25-Mar-08 1:55

Here is the deal:

I have got quite old application which was written in VB 6 using some ActiveX Controls. My task is to perform some automatic test using Quick Test Pro, which doesn’t recognize those ActiveX controls, but it doesn’t matter.

What I want to attain is to get control over an another application ActiveX control using its window’s (control’s) handle. http://rotanes.pl/Project1.exe <- here is really simple application (requires VB 6 runtime) with a data grid (microsoft Data Grid Control 6.0, MSDATAGRID.OCX) and one button, which changes data grid height. I want to be able to do the same from, for example, .net application. Just pass the handle (I can take it from any spy software) and perform the action.

What I discovered:

This ActiveX grid implements some COM interfaces, which are defined in the same dll (ocx) file, just use OLE/COM Viewer and everything is visible. So I’ve spent more then one week trying (using .net and C#) grab this interface knowing only controls hwnd.

My attempts (I used to be a .net developer so I wrote everything in C#):

-> Implement interface _cGrid (which is the interface I would like to cast a COM as) by myself:

[ComImport, Guid("60E9A471-E4DF-4687-B419-15A644E8AD57]
public interface _cGrid
{…}

Or use the one generated by tlbimp.exe.

-> import some extern procedures:

[DllImport("oleacc.dll", PreserveSig = false)]
[return: MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.Interface)]
public static extern object AccessibleObjectFromWindow(IntPtr hwnd, uint dwId, ref Guid riid);

(I tried this import in several different manners, for example with UnmanagedType.IUnknonw, UnmanagedType.IDispatch, adding “out IntPtr ppvd“as the last parameter and changing returned value to int…)

[DllImport("user32.dll")]
public static extern int SendMessage(int hWnd, uint Msg, int wParam, int lParam);

-> Dozens of tries to make everything working (unsuccessfully Frown | :(

):

_cGrid result = (_cGrid )InteropClass.AccessibleObjectFromWindow(handle, 0, ref ITypeInfoGuid); <- throws en exception “Invalid Cast”

InteropClass.AccessibleObjectFromWindow(handle, 0, ref ITypeInfoGuid, out _cGridPtr); <- after every statement execution _cGridPtr has different value and it is different from Marshal.GetIUnknownForObject(obj) (I had reference to the control for my learning purposes, but I won’t have). It sends single WM_GETOBJECT message to the control wit 0xffffffff and 0x00000000 parameters (the second parameter referes to the second parameter of AccessibleObjectFromWindow procedure) which always returns different value (the subtraction of two sibling values equals 32, coincidence?)

Marshal.GetTypedObjectForIUnknown <- always throws “invalid cast exception” or something like this.

I would appreciate any (the simpler the better, prefereably c# by can be managed/unmanaged c++ or VB as well) example of code which works and can retrieve valid IUnknown pointer (or even cast pointer as interface) from ActiveX control knowing only its hwnd.

I need to write an article, this gets asked so often.

You create a list of numbers, which is the range of numbers you want to choose from ( such as 1-100 ).

You generate a random number between 0 and 99 ( for example ). You pull the number at that index out, and remove it from the list. Next time, you generate a number between 0 and 98, and do the same. And so on.

The other option is to write a custom sorting routine that returns a random number, but I've never tried that, I'm not sure if it wouldn't end up going for ever as the sort order keeps changing.

Hey, Christian, your technique works very well if the sample size is small and many of those numbers will be used (for instance, you want 15 unique random numbers less than 25).

If the sample size is large ( 0 - 10 million ) and very few of them will be used, you are better off generating numbers within the range and checking if they have already been generated (you have to maintain a list for that). If not, you add the number to the list and use it.

Cheers,
Vikram.

Yes, that's probably true, I can't imagine needing a small number of unique values between 1 and 10 million, tho. I guess it's possible, and what you say is a good point.

Create a grid of radiobutton on the fly

Hi,

I have this problem that requires different areas (30x40, 10x40) of radio buttons.

How can I do this on the fly? I can't figure out how can I create the radio buttons and add them to the panel using a for loop? I want to name the radio buttons rb_1_1, rb_1_2 or rb11, rb12, etc.

I know I have to create the radio button objects -> RadioButton rb_1_1 = new RadioButton()
but how would I change the rb_1_1 when it loops again?

Thanks.

Desmond

Sorry Gareth, that's not want I wanted.

I know I can do it that way but what if I have 1000 radio buttons I want to create,

RadioButton rb_1_1 = new RadioButton();
RadioButton rb_1_2 = new RadioButton();
and so on

for 1000 times.

Is there a way to do it programmatically, so that I can just create a for loop and it creates the radio buttons for me?

And I need to do this in windows not ASP.net (I can do it in ASP.net).

Thanks.
