I'd like to get the following code (from InheritedUI DevEx.TextEdit control) to work in C#:







Here is what I have, so far:







I think that Implements keyword in VB is throwing me off. Can anyone help me with this?



Thanks!!

Bill



P.S. How do I get the copied code to follow the proper indenting after I paste it? I know there must be some trick...I just cannot remember it.

This is related to interface implementation. This property:







is not a property of the control, but of the interface the control implements because you've implemented it explicitly. Try doing this instead:







and be sure that your class indicates your implementing IBusinessBindable.



Note that one of the IBusinessBindable properties is renamed. IBusinessBindable.DataSourceUpdateMode is renamed as BindingUpdateMode. If you want to do this in C# you'll need to do something like this:







Like I said, bruises to my forehead (due to high speed impacts with my desk).

Ok. Makes sense. I think. Sort of. Kinda.



Here is my adjusted code:







I thought that by using the SF constants that I would be able to see these properties in the control, but they still do not show up. I believe I am missing the boat here somewhere. I haven't resorted to head-bashing (my own or others), but I can see how that might happen.

The properties are accessible from code but not in the designer. What is the trick?

Note sure. There usually isn't a trick. The designer will show all public properties of your class, unless you tell it not to. So, unless the base class is messing with things, you should be able to see the property in the designer. I usually have issues of it not showing what I want it to show (defaults not setup, editor not setup right, type converters messed up, etc.), but the property is usually there.



Just to check, you do mean that the properties are not accessible when you drop the control on a form right? Because, they won't be if you mean the designer of the control itself. Only the base class properties (and below) are available there.

Interesting. I'll go back to my original plan. Thanks for your help!!
