• Software Development for Windows Vista How to Obtain Fault from child activity in FaultHandler?

  How does a child activity obtain access to the Fault captured by a FaultHandler I have a code activity as a child of the FaultHandler. I simply want to spit out the message from the exception that was caught. I tried using the Parent property, expecting that to give me back a reference to the containing FaultHandler, but it was null. The only way I can figure is to add a property to the workflow to store the Fault in through a binding so that it is still accessible to the child code activity. This seems like a really kludgy/indirect way of handling things though. Is there some way more direct, for this specific situation, and hopefu ...Show All

• 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

• Visual Basic Finding the internal Event IDs of a COM wrapped Custom Control?

  Hi all! I have written a simple COM wrapper for the standard textbox control in .NET 2003 and exported it as a DLL. I have then embeded the component as an ActiveX control into another application (SAP ABAP) but this application (as do others ) requires the event IDs to be registered before they can be captured. The control loads and displays correctly - but just does not trigger any events. My problem is that I do not know how to find internal event ids of the events exposed by my custom DLL Do I have to explicitly declare or create the events to expose them to the calling application If I load the TypeLib file in the OLE/COM ob ...Show All

• .NET Development Application level Dataset and the form designer

  What is the best way to do an application level dataset that all forms can share and at and not break the form designer   Using the DataSource to drag controls on really works nice but the dataset is local to the form. However if you point the dataset of the form to point to a Global/Application dataset the form designer does not work.   I have used conditional compilation which seems like work around but you have to add and remove the conditional flag, kind of a pain.   private void InitializeComponent() { ... #if Designer           &nb ...Show All
