• Windows Forms Databinding to a ToolStripStatusLabel

  Hi, Why there is no databindings for ToolStripStatusLabel I need to add a databinding to it, like a regular label allows databinding for its text. I know StatusStrip can be databinded, but I cannot use this solution (I need a StatusStrip with 3 labels, each of them databinded to different properties). Regards, Valentin Iliescu This is not supported directly - you'll need to sub-class a ToolStripStatusLabel and make it an IBindableComponent (sample below).  You'll then need to manually add the Bindings.

• Visual Studio Team System Reports for all the projects.

  Hello. My company currently is making java software and they have a freeware bug tracker called Mantis.  They put all the bugs in that software and they generate reports for all the bugs on all the projects.

Thanks.    You can create repo ...Show All

• Windows Forms Prevent Flickering

  Ok, I'm about done with this form and one last thing to do, prevent the flickering. Yes, I have looked everything up I could find, but just can't seem to find the right sample.  Most are for images, not created lines with createGraphics method. I have this on the form as well.... SetStyle(ControlStyles.UserPaint, true ); SetStyle(ControlStyles.AllPaintingInWmPaint, true ); SetStyle(ControlStyles.DoubleBuffer, true ); And, in my procedure to create the lines, I still get the flickering.

• .NET Development Protecting Assemblies

    I'm building an n-tier application with data access, application and UI layers in separate projects and hence separate assemblies. MyProjectUI.dll MyProjectApp.dll MyProjectDataAccess.dll etc... The application will eventually be publicly available for download and installed on end-users machines. How can I protect my middle tier and DAL assemblies from unauthorised access so that a 'clever' user cannot add a reference to one of my separate assemblies and start calling it's public members. Marking members as Internal only works for classes that are 'inside' the same assembly. Any tips or suggestions would be greatly ...Show All

• Smart Device Development Need some advice from the Pros

  Hi, I need some advice developing a DSP app on PocketPC (specifically iPaq 2215 , which is PPC2003 I think).  I have been developing Windows apps for a long time using VS with C++ as well as C#.  So I am quite familiar with Win32 and the .Net framework on Windows but when it comes to developing for the PPC I am a complete newbie. I have the following requirements for my PPC app: 1) Must be able to record and play back audio at the same time (full duplex). A typical example might be a spectrum analyzer that also needs to send out a test tone at the same time. 2) Need as small as possible latency from recording a buffer of aud ...Show All

• Visual Basic Suggestion for New VB Constructor Language Feature

  Hi, When defining Attributes you can add properties as "Named Parameters". Why not allow us to do this in general in VB Class MyClass() Public Sub New(Arg1 As String) ... End Sub Public Property Property1 As String ... Public Property Property2 As Integer ... End Class ... E.g. Dim obj As New MyClass("Arg1Value",Property1="Prop1Value",Property2=12345) I know you can sort of do this anyway (nearly)... Dim obj As New MyClass("Arg1Value"):obj.Property1="Prop1Value":obj.Property2=12345 Or Dim obj As New MyClass("Arg1Value"):With obj:.P ...Show All

• Visual Basic Common class library between XP and SmartDevice

  I want to have a common class library between windows xp program and a Pocket PC program. The code in the class is general processing, nothing device dependant.
