Using Controls
| I l @ ve RuBoard |
| So far, we have seen the Button controls and the NumericUpDown in action. Let's take a closer look at some of the more commonly used form controls. Check Boxes and Radio ButtonsCheck box and radio button behavior is essentially the same as that of their MFC counterparts. However, the Windows Forms versions do not have any of the nice DDX traits we are all so used to, so reading them and reacting to them is a little more time consuming. Check boxes can be placed on the form or within other panels or group boxes but, because they don't generally rely on the state of other check boxes around them, their setup is relatively simple. Radio buttons that are associated with one another should be children of another object, such as a panel or group box, for their automatic radio-button selection to work. Retrieving the state of these controls is simply a matter of interrogating them directly or using their click methods to keep a record of the user 's choices. Listing 3.2.9 shows a dialog with both check boxes and radio buttons. The code shows several methods for reading the button states or trapping events. Listing 3.2.9 dialogtest.cs : Using Check Boxes and Radio Buttons 1: using System; 2: using System.ComponentModel; 3: using System.Drawing; 4: using System.Windows.Forms; 5: using System.IO; 6: using System.Text; 7: 8: namespace Sams { 9: 10: class DialogTest : System.Windows.Forms.Form 11: { 12: 13: private Button okButton; 14: private Button cancelButton; 15: private CheckBox checkbox; 16: private GroupBox radiogroup; 17: private RadioButton radio1,radio2,radio3; 18: 19: public int Radio; 20: 21: public bool Check { 22: get { return checkbox.Checked; } 23: set { checkbox.Checked = value;} 24: } 25: 26: void OnRadio(Object sender,EventArgs e) 27: { 28: int n=0; 29: foreach(Object o in radiogroup.Controls) 30: { 31: if(o is RadioButton) 32: { 33: RadioButton r=(RadioButton)o; 34: if(r.Checked) 35: Radio=n; 36: n++; 37: } 38: } 39: } 40: 41: public DialogTest() 42: { 43: 44: Size = new Size(400,300); 45: BorderStyle = FormBorderStyle.FixedDialog; 46: Text = "Dialog test"; 47: 48: //place the buttons on the form 49: okButton = new Button(); 50: okButton.DialogResult = DialogResult.OK; 51: okButton.Location = new Point(20,230); 52: okButton.Size = new Size(80,25); 53: okButton.Text = "OK"; 54: Controls.Add(okButton); 55: 56: cancelButton = new Button(); 57: cancelButton.Location = new Point(300,230); 58: cancelButton.Size = new Size(80,25); 59: cancelButton.Text = "Cancel"; 60: cancelButton.DialogResult = DialogResult.Cancel; 61: Controls.Add(cancelButton); 62: 63: //place the check box 64: checkbox = new CheckBox(); 65: checkbox.Location = new Point(20,30); 66: checkbox.Size = new Size(300,25); 67: checkbox.Text = "CheckBox"; 68: Controls.Add(checkbox); 69: 70: //place the radiobuttons 71: //they need to go into a a group box or a panel... 72: radiogroup = new GroupBox(); 73: radiogroup.Text = "Radio Buttons"; 74: radiogroup.Location = new Point(10,60); 75: radiogroup.Size = new Size(380,110); 76: Controls.Add(radiogroup); 77: 78: radio1 = new RadioButton(); 79: radio1.Location = new Point(10,15); 80: // remember this is relative to the group box... 81: radio1.Size = new Size(360,25); 82: radio1.Click += new EventHandler(OnRadio); 83: radio1.Text = "Radio Button #1"; 84: radiogroup.Controls.Add(radio1); 85: 86: 87: radio2 = new RadioButton(); 88: radio2.Location = new Point(10,40); 89: // remember this is relative to the group box... 90: radio2.Size = new Size(360,25); 91: radio2.Click += new EventHandler(OnRadio); 92: radio2.Text = "Radio Button #2"; 93: radiogroup.Controls.Add(radio2); 94: 95: 96: radio3 = new RadioButton(); 97: radio3.Location = new Point(10,70); 98: // remember this is relative to the group box... 99: radio3.Size = new Size(360,25); 100: radio3.Click += new EventHandler(OnRadio); 101: radio3.Text = "Radio Button #3"; 102: radiogroup.Controls.Add(radio3); 103: 104: } 105: 106: } 107: 108: class dtApp : System.Windows.Forms.Form 109: { 110: 111: void OnExit(Object sender, EventArgs e) 112: { 113: Application.Exit(); 114: } 115: 116: void OnDialogTest(Object sender, EventArgs e) 117: { 118: DialogTest dlg = new DialogTest(); 119: 120: DialogResult r=dlg.ShowDialog(); 121: 122: 123: StringWriter sw=new StringWriter(new StringBuilder()); 124: 125: sw.WriteLine("Dialog return value = { 0} "+ 126: "\ nRadio Buttons = { 1} \ nCheck box = { 2} ", 127: r,dlg.Radio,dlg.Check); 128: 129: MessageBox.Show(sw.ToString()); 130: 131: } 132: 133: public dtApp() 134: { 135: MainMenu mm=new MainMenu(); 136: mm.MenuItems.Add(new MenuItem("&Dialog")); 137: mm.MenuItems[0].MenuItems.Add(new MenuItem("&Test", 138: new EventHandler(OnDialogTest))); 139: mm.MenuItems[0].MenuItems.Add(new MenuItem("-")); 140: mm.MenuItems[0].MenuItems.Add(new MenuItem("E&xit", 141: new EventHandler(OnExit))); 142: Menu = mm; 143: } 144: 145: static void Main() 146: { 147: Application.Run(new dtApp()); 148: } 149: } 150: 151: } Looking more closely at the code in Listing 3.2.9, you can see that the radio buttons are, in fact, children of the group box control (lines 70 “103), and that they all use the same click handler (lines 26 “39). This radiobutton handler reads through the child controls of the group box one at a time. When it finds a radio button, it looks to see if it's checked. If it is, the corresponding value is set in the forms member data. This is one of many techniques you can use to read radio buttons. You could just as easily define one handler per button and set a specific value for each of them. In the case of radio buttons, the dialog data is stored in a public data member. This can be read directly by external objects. The check box data is read by a public property that accesses the actual check box control. Simple Edit ControlsThere is a simple text box that handles multiline editing and password display for entering text into your forms. The TextBox class can also allow the user to use the Tab key and press Enter so multiline editing is more flexible. Text edit boxes are illustrated later in the chapter in Listing 3.2.10. List BoxesWindows Forms list boxes can be used to display information in vertical or horizontal lists. List box usage is illustrated in Listing 3.2.10, shown later in this chapter. Tree ViewsThe tree view has become a standard for displaying the hierarchical structures of disk directories and other information, such as XML data. Naturally, Windows Forms has a very good tree view class that has great capabilities. Tree views hold tree nodes. Each node can have a text label associated with it and have other properties such as images that denote the state of the node. Nodes themselves have a Nodes collection in which they store their child nodes and so on. Think of structure of a TreeView class as being similar to that of the menu and menu-item relationship. Tree views support many events for detecting changes in the nodes. The Before xxxxx events will allow you to trap a change before it is effected and cancel it. The After xxxxx events inform you of the changes that have been made. Tree views support three event types aside from the ones associated with RichControl from which it derives. These event types are TreeViewEventHandler , TreeViewCancelEventHandler , and NodeLabelEditEventHandler . There are also EventArg derivatives to go along with these event types The TreeView class, some node operations, and the events associated with them are illustrated shortly in Listing 3.2.10. Tab ControlsTab controls can be used to create forms with tabbed pages. They consist of a tab bar that can be selected by the user and a collection of TabPage objects that can host other form controls. Listing 3.2.10, later in this chapter, shows tab controls and a host of other controls. Dynamic Control ManagementAs you have seen from all of the previous demonstrations in this chapter, the addition, placement, and programming of controls is all performed at runtime, with no reference to layout resources. This implies that Windows Forms controls are easier to use when it comes to creating forms and dialogs that morph and reshape themselves in reaction to the user's commands. Probably everyone who is familiar with MFC will have tried, at one time or another, to create a dynamically changing dialog and have been frustrated by the difficulty of adding and removing controls and handling the messages they generate. Listing 3.2.10, later in this chapter, shows an application with all of the elements shown previously plus some dynamic control features. About the MungoTabAppThe application laid out in Listing 3.2.10 is rather large but illustrates many of the important principles of Windows Forms development. The code listing is numbered but is interspersed with comments in the form of notes in addition to the code comments we have added. For your own sanity , do not try typing this application. It's supplied with this book or available for download from the Sams Publishing Web site. (See the Appendixes in this book for information.) NOTE At this point, it is important to note that the application shown in Listing 3.2.10 has nothing like the structure of an application built with VisualStudio.NET. To use such an application for educational purposes is an almost impossible task. The form layout engine puts code into a routine called InitializeComponent and does not make any effort to order it in a logical manner. The following application has been laid out as logically as possible for your benefit.
