New Post: supports Visual Studio 2010

FabioBo — Fri, 22 Oct 2010 07:05:06 GMT

Hi all,

i've just deployed a new release of SCSFContrib.CompositeUI.dll and SCSFContrib.CompositeUI.WinForms.dll for visual studio 2010 and scsf2010

it's a simple process!

I've installed VS2010, Enterprise Library 5.0, GAX2010, VS Sdk 2010, GAT2010 and smart client contrib 1.5 source code

Just replace library in "Microsoft Practices Library" folder with the new SCSF2010 one and recompile all.

New Post: SmartPartPlaceholder Not shown

bixasbxb — Mon, 18 Oct 2010 12:20:12 GMT

I've solved this problem by changing the following method in SmartPartPlaceHolder.cs :

		/// 
		/// Raises the  event.
		/// 
		protected virtual void OnSmartPartShown(SmartPartPlaceHolderEventArgs e)
		{
			Guard.ArgumentNotNull(e, "e");

		    this.Content = e.SmartPart;  //this is the missing action
			EventHandler handler = SmartPartShown;

			if (handler != null)
			{
				handler(this, e);
			}
		}

... and also modifying the Builder Strategy 'FrameworkElementSmartPartStrategy.cs' : move the call to PopulateIfPlaceholder() from BuildUp() to AddHierarchy():

		private void AddHierarchy(WorkItem workItem, FrameworkElement frameworkElement)
		{
            PopulateIfPlaceholder(workItem, frameworkElement);

            foreach (object child in LogicalTreeHelper.GetChildren(frameworkElement))
			{
				if (!AddToWorkItem(workItem, child))
				{
					FrameworkElement childFrameworkElement = child as FrameworkElement;

					if (childFrameworkElement != null)
					{
						AddHierarchy(workItem, childFrameworkElement);
					}
				}
			}
		}

New Post: UAB 2.1 and UAC

langxang — Fri, 30 Jul 2010 01:53:10 GMT

Hi,

I have UAB 2.1 working with Enterprise Library 3.1 and everythings work fine in Windows XP and Windows 7 with UAC off.

But when I run app in Windows 7 with UAC on there's a problem. I see the files from the server downloaded to downloader folder then app ask me to restart but the files are not updating the program (applications not been created) after exit program. When I restart the program it notice me restart again (resume pending).

I've tested with one text file abc.txt and it run OK and I think program have a trouble with UAC (maybe file with dll extension).

Have anyone get the same problem?

Thanks,

New Post: UAB 2.1 and Enterprise Library Configuration Tool

tippers — Tue, 27 Jul 2010 16:30:17 GMT

I've been looking at the UAB 2.0 release with .net 1.1 but I'm using Visual Studio 2005 and .net 2.0 for my applications so I've like to use the UAB 2.1 version instead. My question is, how do I add the Updater Application Block configuration section in the Enterprise Library Configuration Tool to setup my config file? The instructions on the MSDN website and one example I found on codeproject both use UAB 2.0 where you install the Enterprise Library - June 2005 and UAB 2.0.

I have installed the Enterprise Library - January 2006 and have downloaded the files for UAB 2.1, but the Enterprise Library Configuration Tool under the EL-Jan2006 folder doesn't allow an option to add the Update Application Block configuration section (as per this thread: http://www.vbforums.com/showthread.php?t=474188).

Have I got this wrong or should I be able to use this tool to configure my app.config file to use UAB 2.1?

New Post: SmartPartPlaceholder Not shown

yimin2018 — Thu, 17 Jun 2010 15:34:48 GMT

I have debug into the codes and buildup function works to create the target SmartPart. But the screen for placeholder display nothing and other controls/views display well.

Now I run the BankTellerWpf.sin (vs2008) in sample folder of SmartClientContrib-Release1.5-src, in which the UserInfo view is placed in placeholder.The view does not displayed as well.

So I guess this might be one environment issue. But do not know where is it?

Has anybody encounter this issue and would you like to share something? Thanks a lot.

yimin2018 — Wed, 16 Jun 2010 02:10:39 GMT

I am learning the Contrib now and have problem with SmartPartPlaceholder.

The simple xaml is like this

<Grid>

...definitions ...

<cab:SmartPartPlaceholder SmartPartShown="LeftPlaceHolder_SmartPartShown" SmartPartName="StudyPanelLeftViewInstance"/>

...simple other things like lables

</Grid>

Then I add the smartpart in modulecontroller.AddViews() generated by SCSF template

_studyPanelLeftView = WorkItem.Items.AddNew<StudyPanelLeftView>("StudyPanelLeftViewInstance");

After that, I add button to toolbar. After click the toolbar, the view is shown on shell

_studyPanelView = ShowViewInWorkspace<StudyPanel>(SmartService.Infrastructure.Interface.Constants.WorkItemNames.RootViewOfStudyModule, Constants.WorkspaceNames.LayoutWorkspace);

The labels of study panel shown on the shell correctly while the _studyPanelLeftView now shown.

I can debug into the handler LeftPlaceHolder_SmartPartShown, that means the SmartPart has been loaded. But why I can not see it? I checked the visibility property of the smartpart, is is visible.

I have dig into the problem for several days, and I do not know where to begin for this problem. Is anybody encounter similar issue before? And can you give me some suggestion for this. It just now shown in the workspace, and maybe easy for you.

Thanks a lot for any help from you.

New Post: Define common handler for ExceptionCallback event

rakyyadav — Mon, 26 Apr 2010 17:06:45 GMT

Hi All,

I am sending the web service requests through DSA. When the service responds the DSA raises the ExceptionCallback event in case of any failure. I would wish to define an exception handler for the method to callback and log the exception details. Instead of defining the handler seperately for each individual method, is there a possibility of regsitering the error handler at a higher level(may be the Request dispatcher) so that all the callbacks point to the same error handler.

Thanks in advance!

New Post: Painting issue in DockPanelWorkspace in Windows 7

anmolarya — Tue, 23 Mar 2010 13:45:07 GMT

Hi,

I have an application designed using DockPanelWorkspace. I am facing painting issue with this workspace, when the application is run on Windows 7. The DockPanelWorkspace window is displayed as small 300x300 window on top left corner, rest of the space is blank. This happen when my resolution dpi is 96, when I increase it to 120, it works fine.

Also when I apply WinXP theme on system, it also works fine.

Please suggest...

dotAge — Fri, 19 Mar 2010 05:11:30 GMT

You could use a DockPanelWorkspace as your main workspace, then show a DockContent with DockLeft DockState property on the main workspace, last place your OutlookBarWorkspace into the DockContent.

New Post: UAB and certificate validation

yashgt — Sun, 13 Dec 2009 23:23:15 GMT

Hi,

Applications when published by ClickOnce, get signed in the manifest files. ClickOnce validates the signature against trusted publishers to ensure that the manifest file has not been tampered with.

Does UAB hae a similar feature? If not, which part of the ocde should it be included in?

Thanks,

Check your manifest file. Does it contain files base and file source tabs.

I solved this issue but could not remember how exactly... Theres some mistake in your manifest file or app.config file.

Debug the solution, u will find it out.

New Post: ToolStripPanelAdapter ToolStrip Order - Merging

validation — Wed, 02 Sep 2009 22:03:49 GMT

Hello,

I am using a custom ToolStripPanelUIAdapterFactory to expose the top ToolStripPanel in a ToolStripContainer as a UIExtensionSite.
My adapter is working in that I can create the UIExtensionSite and dynamically add toolStrips to it. However I'm having an issue in assigning Toolstrip Order.

No matter what I do it seems like when I programatically add a ToolStrip to the ToolSripContainer it stacks them vertically.
Here is my adapter and adapter factory. Any help is appreciated!

Public Class ToolStripPanelUIAdapter
    Inherits Microsoft.Practices.CompositeUI.UIElements.UIElementAdapter(Of ToolStrip)

    Private _toolStripPanel As ToolStripPanel

        ' remove all previously existing toolstrips
        Dim ctrls As New List(Of ToolStrip)
        For Each ctrl As ToolStrip In Me._toolStripPanel.Controls
            ctrls.Add(ctrl)
        Next

        ' clear the toolstrips

        Next
        Return uiElement
    End Function

New Post: DockPanelWorkspace's SmartPartClosing event raises twice

dotage — Wed, 19 Aug 2009 02:11:57 GMT

I placed a DockPanelWorkspace on the shell form. In the AfterShellCreated of ShellApplication.cs, I registered the RootWorkItem.Initialized event:

RootWorkItem.Initialized += new EventHandler(RootWorkItem_Initialized);
private void RootWorkItem_Initialized(object sender, EventArgs args)
{
    foreach (KeyValuePair<string, IWorkspace> key in RootWorkItem.Workspaces)
    {
        key.Value.SmartPartClosing += new EventHandler<WorkspaceCancelEventArgs>(smartPart_OnClosing);
    }
}
void smartPart_OnClosing(object sender, WorkspaceCancelEventArgs e)
{
    if (MessageBox.Show("Close?", "Warning", MessageBoxButtons.YesNo, MessageBoxIcon.Warning) == DialogResult.No)
    {
        e.Cancel = true;
    }
}

When I click the close button at the top right corner of the dock panel, the MessageBox in the smartPart_OnClosing raised normally. If I answer No, everything looks fine, the Closing event is cancelled successfully and the smartpart still there. But when I answer Yes, this event will raise again, this time whatever I answer Yes or No, the smartpart will be disposed, is this a bug? and is there any workaround?
