See my updated answer.

Yes. Look at part two of my reply - there is your issue.

Graeme_Grant 3 days ago View

Are you sure that is the correct exception message? That would indicate that the request failed due to an underlying issue such as network connectivity, DNS failure, server certificate validation or timeout.

Graeme_Grant 3 days ago View

All good. I would have gone into more details however was on the way out the door to take the wife & kids camping...

Graeme_Grant 3 days ago View

You have caught the error. Set a breakpoint where you return the error and inspect the rest of the error, not just the message.

Graeme_Grant 20-Apr-24 18:45pm View

There is more to that error message than what is indicated. Look at the raw response. Also, you need to check how you have configured your account on Microsoft's side as it will prevent you from authenticating if not configured correctly.

Fails? Fails how? What happens versus what is expected? By looking at the answers to these questions lies the answer. Understanding why it fails is how you work a solution. Please update your question with more details.

What error? Did you open the browser web tools > console window, reload the page and inspect the error message? What was the exact error? Hit the Improve link above and post the complete error message.

Graeme_Grant 3-Apr-24 6:54am View

Hmmm... not lot to go on...

Have you used your browser web tools to check if the element is in the DOM? It could be a CSS issue.

Also, have you set a breakpoint inside your script and step through to see what your code is doing?

How can you have no code when you claim that you are seeing an error? That makes no sense at all!

If you were working with WPF, I have a sample of how to lazy-load branches on demand (when expanded). Look at the Google Drive - File Explorer example: Working with Newtonsoft.Json in C# & VB[^] (sample code in both C# & VB).

This is working with JSON data, however, the same principle applies.

Wow, a blast from the past. VB6 was released back in 1998, 25+ years ago! Time to upgrade I think.

Glad that it helps.

Regarding out-of-memory, do loading on demand with the TreeView control:
1. Load the root + 1
2. in the +1, only add a stub for each sub folder if it has 1 or more sub directories, no stub fi no sub directories.
3. on expand, remove the stub and repeat - load that path, then + 1 for each sub folder with a stub.

This is called virualization and will instantly load like the OpenFileDialog control. 😊

This code is incomplete. You have not configured the CollectionViewSource for grouping. Go back to the links provided, the samples are very easy to follow.

Graeme_Grant 17-Mar-24 4:20am View

He has a WPF app, so needs a WPF solution. A CollectionViewSource will do what he wants. Check his Question history 😉

Please watch your tone. You asked for help. I have pointed out a key issue. You have chosen not to take the advise, that is your choice.

Graeme_Grant 14-Mar-24 4:13am View

This looks like a very "old school" hack. What is your question?

Graeme_Grant 13-Mar-24 21:13pm View

You totally missed the point. Your selected tags is not correctly bound in your model. But that is your choice to do so.

Graeme_Grant 13-Mar-24 9:31am View

Have you tried??? If you read the code samples in the links above, you will have your answer.

Graeme_Grant 13-Mar-24 6:00am View

As I stated in my last reply: "The CollectionViewSource is a custom view of the collection (listORG ). You can have as many as you want."

Spend time with the samples in the link to understand how they work.

Graeme_Grant 13-Mar-24 4:31am View

The CollectionViewSource is a custom view of the collection. You can have as many as you want.

1. Use the Count for the quantity, like you would with any other collection.
2. The links provide examples of how to use them. If I provided the code, it would be the same as in the examples in the links.

Graeme_Grant 12-Mar-24 20:36pm View

I've downloaded your repo and had a look at your project. Let me show you the issue that I highlight...

You have 2 x TagSelect custom controls outside of your DataGrid. You bind the SelectedTags property for each to a List<Tag> collection. The property that exposes these fires a RaisePropertyChanged event if a new collection is assigned. However, when you make selections in your popup, how do you respond to changes to the selected list collection? a List<> has no events for changes... So, if your control is used outside of your DataGrid, you have no way of handling any changes to the selected list.

The reason why it appears to work is due to the internal use of the ObservableCollection within the custom control.

Tis issue is also in your DataGrid. It is easy to demonstrate. Bind the custom control to a collection in your model (which you have done), and bind that property to another column in your DataGrid you will not see any changes. The easiest way to see this is to add the following column to your DataGrid:

<DataGridTextColumn Binding="{Binding Tags.Count}"></DataGridTextColumn>

When you make changes to your TagSelect the count does not change.

If you want to see a list of your tags in another column, look at how I use a converter to do it.

So, please, take another look at what I posted. It is a simple fix.

Graeme_Grant 12-Mar-24 19:23pm View

If it is of interest, I have written an article, here on CodeProject, on custom controls, where I use a slightly different approach that supports data binding of properties (not collections): Flexible WPF ToggleSwitch Lookless Control in C# & VB[^]

Graeme_Grant 12-Mar-24 19:02pm View

"I AM using an ObservableCollection<> for the presentation and updating of the interface."
With respect, the code posted in the question does not use it, hence my post. I cannot see your screen and codebase, so I can only base my response on what you share and my extensive experience with WPF.

Your solution is still binding to a List<> and will not see any changes to it's contents as the List<> does not implement the INotifyCollectionChanged Interface (System.Collections.Specialized) | Microsoft Learn[^] that is required for Data Binding.

Whilst it may appear that you have solved your problem, you still have this outstanding issue to address.

Graeme_Grant 12-Mar-24 7:58am View

Any reason why you are answering an 8 year old question? Please stick to current question where help is needed.

Graeme_Grant 8-Mar-24 18:27pm View

This is an 8 year old question. Please focus on current questions only.

Graeme_Grant 7-Mar-24 16:35pm View

In your DataEntry class, the binding is only triggered when the list is assigned to the property, not when the collection changes. So whilst it appears that it works, any changes to the list will not cause the DataGrid to refresh the cell as no notification in the binding system is received. The sample that I have given you fixes this issue. It also shows how to solve your key issue with binding to a collection, the Tags property in your DataEntry class.

It will only take a couple of minutes to create a sample project, then copy & paste the code, then run. I strongly recommend that you run the code above, then ask your questions if you are struggling.

The answer is it depends. It depends on the type of application, size, etc. For a small application, it does not matter.

It sounds like you have hooked the form closing event and trying to process the DataGridView cells. you need to set a breakpoint in that code or break on all errors.

This is to address the issue of generating classes from JSON data and how to convert the raw JSON into usable classes. How you use it is then up to you.

FYI, the sample JSON that you posted is invalid.

The purpose of the solution is to resolve the question: "My problem is the incorrect use of asynchrony. Executors should work in parallel. How to implement it correctly?". It does this clearly in the second part labelled "The manager".

Create a console app, add the code, then run it. Set breakpoints to see how it does it. The key is this line:

Task.WaitAny(tasks.ToArray());

Once you understand how asynchronous code runs, using the sample code provided, then you will be ready to update your code.

Graeme_Grant 14-Feb-24 23:47pm View

The error message is very specific. Check that you connection string is pointing correctly at the database.

Graeme_Grant 12-Feb-24 18:32pm View

Those rules are guidelines. There are instances/exceptions, like this one that you have created for yourself. You can mark specific rules to be ignored to stop the warning(s) or compiler errors if set to strict.

FYI: CA1040: Avoid empty interfaces (code analysis) - .NET | Microsoft Learn[^] states: "By default, this rule only looks at externally visible interfaces, but this is configurable."

Then states:
"If your design includes empty interfaces that types are expected to implement, you are probably using an interface as a marker or a way to identify a group of types. If this identification will occur at run time, the correct way to accomplish this is to use a custom attribute. Use the presence or absence of the attribute, or the properties of the attribute, to identify the target types. If the identification must occur at compile time, then it is acceptable to use an empty interface."

Trouble is, attributes add extra code and reflection overhead. Are Attributes a cleaner "looking" solution? Yes. Also, Attributes can be used anywhere and require strict checking to ensure compliance, ie: extra coding overhead.

This is your get out-of-jail comment (from the above link): "If the identification must occur at compile time, then it is acceptable to use an empty interface."

This is an issue that is difficult to diagnose here with the information given. I think that i may know what is happening, and want to make sure that I have the right solution before answering.

So, to avoid excess time digging into code, can you create a new project with just one example, not your entire code base, that demonstrates the issue? If you can, update your question with a link and then we can run and see what is happening.

You miss the point, it has nothing to do with Blazor. The code executes in MAUI.

Graeme_Grant 8-Feb-24 4:43am View

Cool ... now I'll go back into my corner and lick my wounds ... a 1 ... ouch! 😞

Graeme_Grant 8-Feb-24 4:38am View

If the option is open, I tend to lean towards Blazor for the UI, then use the BlazorWebView hosting to show the view. So a hybrid model. The Blazor code is not sandboxed, I can do bidirectional interaction between Blazor and the host app, be it WPF, Avalonia, MAUI, or Winforms. But if I have to, I still use XAML with WPF & Avalonia, MVVM pattern of course!

You can see how Blazor works with other UI frameworks here: Blazing.Mvvm - Blazor Server, WebAssembly, & Hybrid using Mvvm Community Toolkit[^]

Graeme_Grant 8-Feb-24 4:30am View

Just saw this ... did not see who posted... 😬

I'm old-school, so don't use the designer window view for WPF, besides, DI + MVVM = broken designer! I still code XAML by hand. I only use it for debugging while the app is running. Even then, in a very limited capacity. The same goes for coding web pages, hate designers for them too! Have no interest in UWP apps, so can't comment.

Actually, please carefully read the question again:

"I need to change the color of text in TextBlock equal to color of Rectangle in another part of the Grid."

This reads as the same Grid, not a different Grid.

Your understanding of "Deep Linking" is not correct. Deep links are a type of link that send users directly to an app instead of a website or a store. They are used to send users straight to specific in-app locations, saving users the time and energy locating a particular page themselves – significantly improving the user experience. Not to be used for web browsers.

You're better off writing a web browser extension.

If you have correct dependencies, then no, you don't. It could be a breaking change that you have hit. ref: .NET breaking changes reference - .NET | Microsoft Learn[^].

Turn on strict Exception settings to see where in your code the issue is: Debug > Window > Exception Settings > tick "Common Runtime Exceptions".

If that does not isolate it, then maybe start blocking out sections of code to eliminate possibilities until the error disappears. Then you will know where to look.

Lastly, if everything fails, try reinstalling both the 32-bit and 64-bit .Net core SDKs on the server.

5'ed :P

There is a lot of information missing in the above question.
* .Net (core) or .Net Framework? What version?
* Are you using a IOC container ? What IOC container library are you using?
* How are you binding the views to the ViewModels? Is there a specific 3rd party library being used?

Also, what line in your code is throwing the error?

Did you know that Syncfusion have a support forum: Blazor Forums | Syncfusion[^]

I'm not going to run and debug your code for you, you need to do it. I will point you in the right direction.

You can set breakpoints in your javascript/jQuery on the client side and step through your code.

Again, you're not handling errors, both on the client and server sides. You need to fix this.

As I said before, if you have fixed the client-side, then set a breakpoint on the server side and step through your code. If your client post is not hitting the breakpoint in the server code, then you're pointing at the wrong endpoint or there is an error preventing your posting of data.

Graeme_Grant 7-Nov-23 3:29am View

That is a client side error that needs to be addressed. The message is very clear as to what the issue is and what you need to do to correct it.

Also check the server side once that is corrected.

Graeme_Grant 7-Nov-23 3:01am View

if it is not saving, then you must have an error. Are you debugging and stepping over the code to watch what happens?

Graeme_Grant 7-Nov-23 2:39am View

Did you try to debug the problem? Did you set a breakpoint and step over the code? Why is the code not in a try ... catch handler to catch any exceptions thrown? Write the error to console or debug to see what the error is. Set a breakpoint inside the exception and read the error details - the answer will be there.

Graeme_Grant 29-Oct-23 5:14am View

You are asking us for help, so you need to be specific. We cannot run your code.

Graeme_Grant 22-Oct-23 8:39am View

I fixed your appsettings issue where your connection string was not read. Your connection string not working with your DB is something different. Time for some debugging. The answer is in the error details. Ask a new question and include all of the error details, including stack traces, etc...

Graeme_Grant 14-Oct-23 5:14am View

"I want a solution to this problem" is not a very nice way of asking for help.

Graeme_Grant 12-Oct-23 19:41pm View

I've had another look and updated my solution.

Graeme_Grant 12-Oct-23 19:25pm View

I think that you missed the point. Dynamic is post compiler, not pre. This is why.

Graeme_Grant 11-Oct-23 10:06am View

The sample code is there, just in C#. I've shown you how to do convert it to VB.Net, and do it quickly. Now, it is up to you to do the work required. It's called programming.

If you have breakpoints, and they're not being hit, it is usually a good indication that the method is not called or where you placed the breakpoint is not being hit.

There is not enough posted in your question to determine what is happening.

Lastly, why are you deleting and reposting the same question? We do notice.

Graeme_Grant 9-Oct-23 18:27pm View

For a third time, still unsure which line is throwing the error... We can't run your code nor see your screen, so if you don't share, we can not help you. Use the "Improve question" link to add the extra details.

Graeme_Grant 9-Oct-23 8:23am View

You are using nullable parameters but you're not checking if any are null.

Which line is throwing the error? You also need to post the full error details. Use the "Improve question" link to add the extra details.

Graeme_Grant 5-Oct-23 7:50am View

Are you asking us how to write a filter or how to do the filtering based on your criteria?

Graeme_Grant 3-Oct-23 8:31am View

The error message is explicit: "item.totalPrice is null" - ie: your price value is not set, ie, null.

Set a breakpoint where you think that you are setting the price, then when the code pauses, inspect why. This is called "debugging your code".

Graeme_Grant 2-Oct-23 17:46pm View

This is not how you ask questions, only post solutions. Please either read the solution above or ask a new question.

I'm trying to get him to look at the complete error message ... there should be more there for him.

Graeme_Grant 25-Sep-23 6:38am View

That's the message part, not the full error message.

MessageBox.Show(ex.Message, "Error", MessageBoxButtons.OK, MessageBoxIcon.Error)

ex.Message is only one part, there is lots more...

Graeme_Grant 25-Sep-23 6:36am View

I contemplated posting both usages but chose to keep it simple ... Hopefully, the above explains his "new" issue. The error message is the clue being ignored.

Graeme_Grant 25-Sep-23 6:34am View

...and the full error message?

Graeme_Grant 25-Sep-23 6:29am View

You know that we can't see your problem if you don't post the code ... right? Also, post the full error... You can do this by clicking on the "Improve question" link.

Graeme_Grant 25-Sep-23 5:51am View

And that is the problem.

using var stream = new MemoryStream();

This is the same as:

using var stream = new MemoryStream()
{
 // do work here
}

The return statement is taking the stream out of scope and the stream is being automatically closed.

For it to work, you need to pass the stream in, not out...

public void Export(MemoryStream stream)
{
    // do work here
}

You know that we can't see your code if you don't post it? We also can't view your screen. Also, you do not tell us what type of app or what chart library that you are using.

To quote the help in the yellow box where you post your question:

A few simple rules when posting your question.

1. Be courteous. Everyone here helps because they enjoy helping, not because it's their job.
2. Have you searched or Googled for a solution?
3. Be specific! eg "How do I change the dialog colour?" instead of "My code doesn't work. Help?"
4. Tag your question appropriately.
5. If you have a school or university assignment, assume that your teacher or lecturer is also reading these forums.
6. Do not remove or empty a message if others have replied.
7. Your question may be edited or retagged by others. Anything inappropriate will be removed.

Please do not post code in comments.

What you are asking me to do is outside of the scope of Quick Answers forum. I have given you pointers to training materials to answer your variable scope issue causing your compile-time error. Now you need to roll up your sleeves and do some reading, learning and possibly more research. Good luck with it.

Graeme_Grant 21-Sep-23 5:52am View

This is programming 101... it depends on where you declared it and where you are using it. Move the declaration to where you need it.

Graeme_Grant 21-Sep-23 2:36am View

I'm not going to run your code.

I did create a quick MAUI app, and pointed at the codeproject home page and everything worked as expected. If your image is not showing, then I can only suggest that:
1. The javascrpt is not running
2. The javascript has a bug
3. The URI for the image is invalid

You need to set a breakpoint in your javascript and check that it is working correctly.

Graeme_Grant 21-Sep-23 1:56am View

the issue is not with my answer. I'll post a full example with output.

It works for everyone, so not sure what your issue is.

This is not your first question here. One would think that after the last 20+ questions that you have asked, you would understand what is the correct way to post a question.

Lastly, nobody wants to troll through your code to find your issue. You need to post a simplified version above to demonstrate the issue, not one line of html with no context.

Graeme_Grant 9-Sep-23 19:48pm View

The first link answers that question. You need to map the DTO (Data Transfer classes or your classes in this case) relationships for Entity Framework. A required step. Once done, you can then use Include to to do SQL "join".

I've updated my answer above with more information that will not only help you with this problem, but much much more. Please take the time to learn and understand before working further on your project. The upfront time investment will be worth your while.

Graeme_Grant 9-Sep-23 5:49am View

The key part of the query is that you need to Include the children for the data to be retrieved. The Create is generating the relationship between the tables. It's all in the links provided.
