Problem with DevExpress 8.1.1.

Peter Jones — Wed, 26 Mar 2008 10:59:36 GMT

Hi,

I've just installed DevExpress 8.1.1 and used their Project Convertor to change the Inherited UI reference. I opened the Inherited UI solution to recompile as had the nine errors - all the same and following is a sample

       Private Sub AddBrowseResultsList()
            '-- Establish Locals
            Dim loPanel As Panel = Nothing

            '-- Determine which panel will house the browse results
            With _BrowseDialog.FormLayout
                '-- Get the panel where the listview will reside
                If .TopPanelContents = BrowseDialogLayoutType.BrowseResults Then
                    loPanel = LeftSplit.Panel1 <<<<<<<< ERROR
                ElseIf .BottomPanelContents = BrowseDialogLayoutType.BrowseResults Then
                    loPanel = LeftSplit.Panel2 <<<<<<<< ERROR
                ElseIf .SidePanelContents = BrowseDialogLayoutType.BrowseResults Then
                    loPanel = MainSplit.Panel2 <<<<<<<< ERROR
                End If
            End With

Error message:
Error 2 Value of type 'DevExpress.XtraEditors.SplitGroupPanel' cannot be converted to 'System.Windows.Forms.Panel'. C:\Program Files\MicroFour\StrataFrame Source Code\MicroFour StrataFrame Inherited UI\DevExpress Extended\Dialogs\browsedialogwindow.vb 634 31 MicroFour StrataFrame Inherited UI

I removed the 8.1.1 reference and reapplied and the problem remained.

I changed the reference back to 7.3.8 and all was ok.

Has anyone successfully migrated to 8.1.1?

Cheers, Peter

They changed some of their base classes and event args is why you were having some trouble. Here is a post with the assemblies compiled for 8.1.1: http://forum.strataframe.net/FindPost15184.aspx

Any luck with this? For the moment I've just commented out the BrowseDialog functions that conflict with 8.1.1 since I don't use it (yet.... :D)

Great...it looks like they may have either changed property names and/or namespaces. I will have to download it and take a look to see what is going on. The most recent version I have downloaded is 7.3.8.
