Browse dialog subclass

Fabian R Silva, - — Fri, 19 Oct 2007 09:26:24 GMT

I trying to make a generic browsedialog, I generate the searchfields from a string array, something like:

[codesnippet]'Private pBrowseDialogSearchFieldTexts() As String = {"ID", "Código", "Descripción"}
'Private pBrowseDialogSearchFieldFields() As String = {"idProvincia", "CodProvincia", "DesProvincia"}
Dim iSearchField As Integer = -1
Dim sfd As SearchFieldItem
For Each cSearchField As String In pBrowseDialogSearchFieldTexts
iSearchField += 1
sfd = New SearchFieldItem

sfd.AllowAdvanced = True
sfd.DefaultSearchStyle = MicroFour.StrataFrame.UI.BrowseDialogAllSearchTypes.BeginsWith
sfd.EnumType = ""
sfd.FieldLabelText = pBrowseDialogSearchFieldTexts(iSearchField) '"Customer Name"
sfd.FieldMask = ""
sfd.FieldName = pBrowseDialogSearchFieldFields(iSearchField) '"cust_LastName"
sfd.InitialValue = ""
sfd.Visible = True

'SearchFields.AddRange(New MicroFour.StrataFrame.UI.Windows.Forms.SearchFieldItem() {SearchFieldItem1, SearchFieldItem2, SearchFieldItem3, SearchFieldItem4})
SearchFields.Add(sfd)
sfd = Nothing
Next[/codesnippet]

When I test the project, it work but when I click on the Browse button from the maintenance toolstrip, an error ocurrs:

I try to add the Strataframe UI project, to debug the "CreateAllSearchFieldControls" method, but some errors ocurrs, I'm using a 1.6.2 test version to develop.

Can I debug the UI project to see what happen on "CreateAllSearchFieldControls" method or its not posible? if I restore the 1.6.1 dll or something else? thanks!

Well, this is not a simple answer and will require some more information. There are a number of pieces to creating a BrowseDialog dynamically. It can be done, but from the code that you have posted it will be difficult to give you a straight answer.

As for the 1.6.2 assembly, you will not be able to debug it because you do not have the source code for it. That is the down-side of a pre-release assembly. Sorry :ermm: ...we are still testing the 1.6.2 because we have made some core changes to the UI to improve rendering and performance, so we are still testing at the moment.
