| - | - Add an ‘Existing Project’ to the solution and choose: “C: | ||
| - | <color red>### This is the old version. Need to update it to the one in eLaw ###</ | ||
| - | - Build the project. The user control won’t appear in the toolbox until the solution is built with it included. You will get an error if the DLLs don’t exist locally for any required subprojects. For example TMDBConnector uses “C: | ||
| - | - Add the ucTMDatabaseConnector to your form from the VS Toolbox. | ||
| - | |||
| - | //NOTE: This version “C: | ||
| - | |||
| - | ===== Add an Existing Form from another project | ||
| - | |||
| - | For example add the somewhat standardized Options form (from LS.TMLinkedDocumentMonitor.Presentation ) that includes a wired up instance of the TMDBConnector & ucTMDatabaseConnector Control. | ||
| - | |||
| - | Add rfrmOptions to your Presentation project: | ||
| - | |||
| - | * First you must add any Common Lib project(s) to the solution that will be used by the form you will add. The Options form requires these LS Common Libraries: | ||
| - | * “C: | ||
| - | * “C: | ||
| - | * “C: | ||
| - | * “C: | ||
| - | * C: | ||
| - | * Manually add a Reference for each Common Lib (ex: LX.Common.TMDBConnector) to the Project\References. This is necessary because you won't be manually adding the user control from the toolbox. | ||
| - | * rfrmOptions also requires the Settings.cs abd DBSettings.cs files as well so add them to the Presentation project. | ||
| - | * Copy the 3 form files to the new project folder (ex: ' | ||
| - | * Right click the Presentation project and “Add | Existing Item” then choose (just) the ' | ||

| - | * Passes the EmailSettings object to the rfrmEmailSupport form and displays it | ||
| - | |||
| - | === CC Validation tab – On “Validate” button click === | ||
| - | |||
| - | * Creates a new instance of the rfrmEmailSupport form but doesn’t displays it | ||
| - | * Sends the “CC” textbox value to the rfrmEmailSupport class ParseCCs method | ||
| - | * Returns the valid CC email addresses to the “Parsed CC” textbox | ||
| - | |||
| - | === Zip Compress tab – on “Zip Files” button click === | ||
| - | |||
| - | * Creates a new instance of the Zip class | ||
| - | * Reads the text inserted in the “File Paths” textbox, splits the text by new line and stores the values as a list | ||
| - | * Sends the list and the value of the “OutputFileName” textbox to the Zip class Compress method. For the second parameter of the Compress method, it sends the value of the “OutputFileName” textbox. If the value is empty, it will generate a name using the provided rule ( {date}_{time}.zip ). | ||
| - | * It displays the returned value of the Compress method, which is the zip file path, in the “Output Directory” textbox. The textbox is read only. | ||
| - | * Opens an Explorer window to the path of the zip file for a faster examination during tests | ||

| - | |||
| - | ==== Delete (‘Revert’) changes in the local Repository so you can Pull a fresh copy from the web ==== | ||
| - | |||
| - | You might make local changes that you don’t want to Commit to the web. Instead you want to do a Pull and have it overwrite these local changes. | ||
| - | |||
| - | You could delete the whole folder and do a new Clone, but here’s an easier way. | ||
| - | |||
| - | Right click a blank space in the “C: | ||
| - | |||
| - | < | ||
| - | |||
| - | Right click one of the selected files and click ‘Revert’. | ||

| - | ### Need to document this… | ||
| - | |||
| - | ==== Roll the current ‘Master’ version back to some previous log time ==== | ||
| - | |||
| - | ==== Pull the Current Version from an Existing Repository ==== | ||
| - | |||
| - | //NOTE: You do not have to close the Solution in VS before Pulling an update. Once the Pull is complete VS will ask if you want to reload and changed files.// | ||
| - | |||
| - | * Open the local solution folder and right click and choose “Git Pull”. | ||

| - | The files in the folder will now appear just as they would in the branch. | ||
| - | |||
| - | You do not need to close Visual Studio when you change Branches. It will ask you to reload all changed files. **Let it do that!** | ||
| - | |||
| - | When you have multiple branches you should Switch and Push/Pull each individually as changes are made. There is no global Push/Pull. | ||
| - | |||
| - | ==== Branches – Delete | ||
| - | |||
| - | ### Document this… | ||
| - | |||
| - | ==== Delete Repository but not files ==== | ||
| - | |||
| - | Delete the (hidden) .git folder in the root-folder of your repository to only delete the git-related information (branches, versions). Run the following commands from the root-folder of your repository: | ||
| - | |||
| - | List the hidden git folders in all subfolders: | ||
| - | |||
| - | DIR /AHD /S /B *.git | ||
| - | |||
| - | Delete your local git repository, but not the remote repo (if one exists): | ||
| - | |||
| - | RMDIR /S .git (include /Q for no prompt) | ||
| - | |||
| - | Use this PowerShell script to delete the entire folder for a local repository | ||

| - | In the example above the the using creates a new instance of the form each time is rmiOptions clicked. Here are 3 options to deal with this (typically you should pick the 3rd): | ||
| - | |||
| - | - Create a new form instance each time then destroy the form instance when it is closed. | ||

| - | |||
| - | ==== // Use Tooltips with Telerik controls ==== | ||
| - | |||
| - | * ‘ToolTipText’ – For a lot of controls you can just populate the ‘ToolTipText’ property and tooltips simply work. | ||
| - | * Some controls like the RadButton don’t have a ‘ToolTipText’ property. In this case you have these options: | ||
| - | * Get to the underlying ‘RadItem’ ToolTipText property via the ‘ButtonElement’ like this. See this page for more.\\ | ||
| - | radButton1.ButtonElement.ToolTipText = " | ||
| - | |||
| - | > Or you can do the same in design time via the IDE. Just click the Telerik control “Tasks Button” | “Edit UI Elements” | and edit the ToolTipText there. Didn’t work | ||
| - | |||
| - | * Drag the regular Windows (non-Telerik) toolTip control to any spot on the form (it will not be visible). The name doesn’t matter. It will add a ‘**ToolTip on toolTip**’ property to the Rad Controls that don’t already have a ‘ToolTip’ property. This control has some properties you can set for delays on appearance and disappeance. | ||
| - | |||
| - | ToolTipManager | ||
| - | |||
| - | ‘AutoCloseDuration’ – how long the tooltips remain onscreen | ||
| - | |||
| - | ==== // TreeView - Expand All/ | ||
| - | |||
| - | This code will expand or collapse all nodes of a Treeview control. | ||

| - | |||
| - | %%//%% Line Continuation for Long Multiline Strings (multiple lines) | ||
| - | |||
| - | There are a few options to consider. | ||
| - | |||
| - | Use the @ symbol in front of a string to form a [[http:// | ||
| - | |||
| - | <code csharp> | ||
| - | string query = @" | ||
| - | FROM table | ||
| - | WHERE id = 42"; | ||
| - | </ | ||
| - | |||
| - | |||
| - | You [[http:// | ||
| - | <code csharp> | ||
| - | string quote = @"Jon said, "" | ||
| - | </ | ||
| - | |||
| - | The problem with using string literal is your code must be completely left aligned in order to avoid whitespace since all characters are included in the string itself. Note whitespace also means all \r\n newlines will be included in the final string. | ||
| - | |||
| - | You can use String.Join like this to avoid the whitespace issue: | ||
| - | <code csharp> | ||
| - | var someString = String.Join( | ||
| - | Environment.NewLine, | ||
| - | " | ||
| - | " | ||
| - | Environment.NewLine, | ||
| - | " | ||
| - | " | ||
| - | </ | ||
| - | |||
| - | Another option is to use the + operator and break the string up into human-readable lines. The compiler will pick up that the strings are constant and concatenate them at compile time. Like this: | ||
| - | <code csharp> | ||
| - | const string myVeryLongString = | ||
| - | "This is the opening paragraph of my long string. " + | ||
| - | "Which is split over multiple lines to improve code readability, | ||
| - | "but is in fact, just one long string."; | ||
| - | </ | ||
| - | |||
| - | Or this: | ||
| - | |||
| - | <code chsarp> | ||
| - | var myString = String.Format( | ||
| - | "hello " + | ||
| - | " | ||
| - | " i am {0}" + | ||
| - | " and I like {1}.", | ||
| - | animalType, | ||
| - | animalPreferenceType | ||
| - | ); | ||
| - | // hello world i am a pony and I like other ponies. | ||
| - | </ | ||
| - | |||
| - | ==== // Enable/ | ||
| - | |||
| - | ### Add an entry here based on the code in the TreeDataExtracter project | ||
| - | |||
| - | ==== // Multiple lines of text with new line (cr/lf) ==== | ||
| - | <code csharp> | ||
| - | rtxtTextbox.Text = " | ||
| - | " | ||
| - | "And wrap up here."; | ||
| - | </ | ||
| - | |||
| - | ==== Create a Delay or Wait for some time ==== | ||
| - | <code csharp> | ||
| - | using System.Threading; | ||
| - | Thread.Sleep(2000); | ||
| - | </ | ||
| - | ==== Application Folder – Open Windows Explorer ==== | ||
| - | <code csharp> | ||
| - | // Open the Messages subfolder in the app (exe) folder | ||
| - | System.Diagnostics.Process.Start(" | ||
| - | |||
| - | // The @ (' | ||
| - | System.Diagnostics.Process.Start(" | ||
| - | |||
| - | // Use Path.Combine(path1, | ||
| - | System.Diagnostics.Process.Start(" | ||
| - | |||
| - | // Check if the \images folder exists, and delete or create it | ||
| - | string outputDir = System.IO.Path.GetDirectoryName(System.Windows.Forms.Application.ExecutablePath); | ||
| - | |||
| - | DirectoryInfo df = new DirectoryInfo(outputDir + @" | ||
| - | if(df.Exists) | ||
| - | // df.Delete(true); | ||
| - | else | ||
| - | DirectoryInfo di = Directory.CreateDirectory(outputDir + @" | ||
| - | </ | ||
| - | |||
| - | Not all of these methods will return the same value. They can return the same value, but be careful since their purposes are different: | ||
| - | Application.StartupPath %%//%% return the StartupPath parameter (Can be set when run the app) | ||
| - | |||
| - | System.IO.Directory.GetCurrentDirectory() %%//%% returns the current directory, which may or may not be the folder where the app is located, and is the same as Environment.CurrentDirectory. | ||
| - | |||
| - | If using this in a dll, it will return the path of where the process is running (this is especially true in ASP.NET) | ||
| - | |||
| - | ==== Control ‘Bring to Front’/ | ||
| - | <code csharp> | ||
| - | // GetChildIndex method of the Controls collection gets the index of a particular child control. | ||
| - | // index = 0 control is front most | ||
| - | this.Controls.GetChildIndex(myControl); | ||
| - | this.BringToFront(); | ||
| - | </ | ||
| - | ==== Create a Collapsible Region ==== | ||
| - | |||
| - | Use #region to collapse a named section of code. Look for the < | ||
| - | |||
| - | <code csharp> | ||
| - | #region Any region name you want even with spaces | ||
| - | private void InitializeMainGridViewDefaults() | ||
| - | { | ||
| - | this.rgvMainGridView.ShowColumnHeaders = true; | ||
| - | #region Regions can also be inside a Class | ||
| - | this.rgvMainGridView.AllowColumnReorder = true; | ||
| - | #endregion | ||
| - | this.rgvMainGridView.AllowColumnResize = true; | ||
| - | this.rgvMainGridView.AllowColumnChooser = true; | ||
| - | this.rgvMainGridView.AllowColumnHeaderContextMenu = true; | ||
| - | } | ||
| - | #endregion | ||
| - | |||
| - | // Code continues outside the region... | ||
| - | </ | ||
| - | |||
| - | ==== Conditional Compilation with #define ==== | ||
| - | |||
| - | **Define is in** | ||
| - | <code csharp> | ||
| - | // Conditional Compilation Flag declarations must be at the very top of the source file | ||
| - | // #define ReadOnlyWithGrouping // Since this is defined... | ||
| - | |||
| - | using System; | ||
| - | public class Class1 | ||
| - | { | ||
| - | public Class1() | ||
| - | { | ||
| - | #if ReadOnlyWithGrouping | ||
| - | this.rgvMainGridView.ShowColumnHeaders = true; %%//%% these lines are included in compilation | ||
| - | this.rgvMainGridView.AllowColumnReorder = true; | ||
| - | #else | ||

| - | |||
| - | // Code continues outsdie the region... | ||
| - | } | ||
| - | } | ||
| - | </ | ||
| - | **Define is out** | ||
