• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) How do I Progmatically Select an Item in a TreeView?

  Seems simple, but somehow I got stuck on this one. I've got a TreeView bound to some Hierarchical Data. I want to progmatically set the TreeView to have an item initially selected after I populate the Hierarchical data. SelectedItem and SelectedValue are read only, so that's a no go. I figured I need to get the TreeViewItem hosting my object and set it's IsSelected to true in a SubClass like this: public void SelectFirstNode() { if ( this .Items.Count > 0) { TreeViewItem treeViewItem = GetContainerForItemOverride(Items[0]) as TreeViewItem ; if (treeViewItem != null ) { ...Show All

• Windows Forms CallBack in GridView

  Hello: I am in the process of extending GridView and adding some functionalities. For example, I added a single row click to postback and handle the event. I would like now to be able to do a CallBack instead of PostBack. Do you know if there is a whitepaper on how that CallBack functionality is added to the Grid currently through sorting and paging I believe it is better to follow the same technique used. I have been trying for some time, im getting all the needed methods and functions, and I have added for example: Grid1.EditIndex = e.GridViewRow.RowIndex; inside the handler of the sinlge click which is being fired upon a ...Show All

• Smart Device Development Debugging without ActiveSync?

  Is it possible to debug a native application from Whidbey Beta 2 on a Windows CE 5.0 device that doesn't include activesync   In the device settings the only choice seems to be ActiveSync. What is happenning is that the emulator is not recognizing the idle loop in the BSP and is trying to execute it at maximum speed. The workaround is to change the idle loop in the SMDK2410 so that the emulator sees it and goes idle. The key sequence of ARM instructions that the emulator is looking for is generated by:  do {} while (!fInterruptFlag); So here is a sample implementation of OEMIdle that will cause the ...Show All
