Inherited devex controls in loginform

Mariusz Mol — Fri, 03 Feb 2012 19:37:32 GMT

Hello,

In my application i cant add devexpress controlls to login forms.

After add microfour devex.textedit i 've got exception in line shown below

e.ShowMainForm = Login.ShowLoginAndAuthUser(True)

This is strange for me because when i set normal textbox in login form i can normaly use inherited controls in my application in other forms.

i use .net4.0, devexpres 11.2 and microfour 1.7.0.0

why in reference in error message is devex version 10.1

System.Reflection.TargetInvocationException was unhandled by user code

Message=Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation.

Hi Mariusz,

The problem is that you have to compile the "MicroFour StrataFrame Inherited UI" with the current DevExpress assemblies so it will use what you have now. The assembly "MicroFour StrataFrame Inherited UI.dll" you are using is pre-compiled with DevEx version 10.1.

If you have no experience compiling StrataFrame source code follow these suggestion:

Close VS and any SF project.
Use DevExpress Project Converter to update the assemblies of the SF Inherited solution with your version of DevExpress. In my computer it is located at: C:\Program Files (x86)\MicroFour\StrataFrame Source Code
Open MicroFour StrataFrame Inherited UI.sln solution, Build the Solution and then make sure the new assembly "MicroFour StrataFrame Inherited UI.dll" is in the GAC, sometimes it may not get updated and you would have to manually remove it from GAC "C:\Windows\Assemblies" and then repeat step 3.
Open your SF solution, remove the "MicroFour StrataFrame Inherited UI.dll" assembly from the reference and add it again so it will use your current DevExpress assemblies.

Good luck!
