• AlexBB Dragging forms around with mousedown

  Just wondering - just looking at my code at the moment... I've got a login form to capture mouseclicks anywhere on the form surface and be able to drag it. I had to use the below to pass the window handle to the API function. Dim objWindowInteropHelper As WindowInteropHelper = New WindowInteropHelper(Window) ReleaseCapture() SendMessage(objWindowInteropHelper.Handle.ToInt32, WM_NCLBUTTONDOWN, HT_CAPTION, 0) Is this do-able within WPF itself Chris you can use Thumb and handle Drag Delta Event or you can use Window.DragMove method Thanks man...

• Smylie How to pass parameters to a DataBinding in XAML? - I want (need) to seed the construction of the DataBinding source object.

  I have a set of generic (generalized) DataBinding source objects, each of which maps to a different UI control type (eg. collections for ComboBox, single value for checkbox, etc.). <CheckBox.IsChecked> <Binding Path="Value" Source="{StaticResource SingleValueBinder}" /> </CheckBox.IsChecked> or <ComboBox Name="MyCombo" Height="21" Margin="20,20,20,20" ItemsSource="{Binding Source={StaticResource ItemsSourceBinder}, Path=Values}" IsSynchronizedWithCurrentItem="True"> </ComboBox> These objects are basically serving as adaptors and internally map to a host of specific object values. I need someway to specify which of the unde ...Show All

• Alvin Kuiper What ever happened to ObjectSpaces?

  Or more specifically how is this next version different from ObjectSpaces Why didn't ObjectSpaces ever ship I remember first playing around with ObjectSpaces almost 4 years ago! We were continually promised that the ship date was "just around the corner". I think the last I heard was that it was going to be merged into the now-dead (castrated ) WinFS product. What sort of lessons have you learned over the years from the failure of ObjectSpaces and the maturing OR/M market in general It seems like many vendors (Frans and his LblGen Pro product to mention one) and open source alternatives (Hibernate and it's red-headed step sister nHibernate) are already years ahead. What I've seen so far seems encouraging but honestly not anym ...Show All

  Both a Program and a Command attribute It's a bit of a pain to always put a "" around the command part in case it has spaces in it's path. thanks - dave ..so which one of those is the arguments MSBuild team: if you implement this then for pete's sake choose a good name..
