• Patrick.I How to force a Binding-bound property to refresh?

  If I have something like : <Setter Property="Source" Value="{Binding SomeSource}"></Setter> where SomeSource is a property that returns different values depending on one or more variables, what I find is that WPF does some sort of caching and it binds the value only once. Now even if SomeSource has changed (as in it returns a different value), WPF won't do a re-binding (to use a non-word). Note that SomeSource is a read-only property. Interestingly there's an UpdateSourceTrigger property. But there's nothing like its opposite (which is what I want). Something like a UpdateBindingOnSourceChange property would have been perfect *sigh* Any help is hugely appreciated. Thanks Josh. It's not ...Show All

• cipcip Bubbling an Event from WPF to Winform

  Hello All, I have a WPF canvas which is hosted in an ElementHost (I am using this WPF canvas in a .NET 2.0 application using System.Windows.Forms.Integration). I want to bubble the occurence of the MouseDown/MouseMove/Drag/Drop events of the WPF canvas to its superbase control which is basically a C# .NET 2.0 class (which is hosting the ElementHost). This superbase control is winform user control that inherits from System.Windows.Forms.UserControl. So the hierarchy is WPF Canvas is the Child of ElementHost which is added to superbase control (using this.Controls.Add(ElementHost)). Firstly, can I bubble up the event from WPFCanvas to the winform based superbase user control If yes, How will I handle the change in eventargs declaration ...Show All

• Ashish Derhgawen Problem with FaultException<T> ("FaultException was unhandled by usercode")

  Hi, Whenever I do a throw FaultException<ApplicationException> in my service, or any other type, I get a "FaultException was unhandled by usercode", and only the base FaultException is transmitted to the client, not the FaultException<ApplicationException> (ie : ApplicationException is empty). The code is pretty simple in the service (I can debug that everything is populated) : [ FaultContractAttribute ( typeof ( ApplicationException ))] // for the Interface throw new FaultException < ApplicationException >(detail, fereason, fecode); // in the service method and right after that line, I get a "FaultException was unhandled by usercode".

• djshades2004 I need help with installing SQL Server 2005 Express

  Dear MSDN, I'm having a problem with installing SQL Server 2005 Express. In the past, I installed Visual Studio 2005 Beta (with SQL Server 2005 on it) and it runs fine.

When I installed the Express Edition, SQL Server 2005 Express failed to install, but Visual Studio 2005 Express is running fine w/o SQL Server on it. I need to install SQL Server 2005. Please help me how to fix this. Thanks. Hi, sory for the late reply. I uninstalled the VS 2005 express edition then i used the clean-up tool to remove the remaining beta components, but the tool also failed to clean ...Show All

• Toinepoep Class Designer - Switch into a read only mode.

  I use TDD when developing my classes so don't want to use the class designer to generate code, however I do want to use it to view the relationships between classes. I therefore wondered if there's an easy way to lock the class designer, telling it that I want to view my classes but don't have any intention of updating them. This would be useful because at the moment its very easy to accidentally make a change (such as deleting an association when you just meant to hide it) that breaks your code base. Actually, a colleague of mine suggested a workaround that may give you what you want. If you're working with source code control (like Visual Source Safe), you can set an option to be prompted to checkou ...Show All

• bchan ComboBox bound to an XmlDataProvider

  Hi there, I have an Xml document which is bound (using the standard {Binding XPath=...} syntax) to a bunch of controls. One of those controls is a ComboBox. How can I then bind a list of possible values to that ComboBox ItemsSource such that when one is selected it's value is pumped back into the Xml document Binding the ItemsSource isn't the problem, rather having the selected item reflected back in the xml document. So the xml document that i'm working with might look something like: <xml> <container> <somevalue>myvalue</somevalue> </container> </xml> And the ComboBox is bound something like: <ComboBox SelectedItem={Binding Source=xmlDataProvider, XPath=xml/container/somevalue} I ...Show All
