Web form designer in VS 2003 .Net does not know about base classcontrols

I have a base class derived from System.Web.UI.P age, and derived classes
derived from the base class. The base class has protected HTML hidden
fields in it, and the derived class's aspx page has these hidden fields
specified. So far everything is OK.

However if I open the derived class's aspx page in the Web Form
designer, it immediately puts an asterisk on the tab, meaning some
change needs saving without my having done anything. If I then close the
aspx page and agree to save the changes, it adds the HTML hidden fields
to my derived class, not only overlaying the base class's hidden fields
with the same name for the hidden field HTML controls in the derived
class, but also the run-time initialization of controls in my
derived-base class gets royally messed up.

If I do not agree to save the changes I can not make any visual changes
to the controls in my derived class's aspx page.

Has anyone seen this broken behavior ? Does anyone know of a way around
this broken behavior so that the Web Form designer does not break the
web application code ?

Yes, I can manually make changes to my derived class's web form, and the
appropriate class itself, but the whole idea is to use the Web Form
designer to make those changes. Also if I manually make changes will the
IDE regenerate the correct .resx file automatically ?

Hi All, I just wonder if in C#, I can develop a user defined control that can call its parent function which is not yet developed.

I have hopefully a simple problem in C#. I designed a form with a listview on left, vert splitter against that, then the remainder of the form from top to bottom: a listview, horiz splitter and tab control (very similar to outlook express). I then started coding and realised that I needed to add a ToolBar. When I added this, it didn't appear at the top as expected, but at the top of the tab control and I couldn't get it to appear where...

Hi guys/gals, I'm using VS.net 2003 and having trouble with the following: I am trying to inherit a base class into a web form, but VS will then not allow me to add any ASP.NET controls using the designer. The base class does derive from System.Web.UI.Page. Here's a code snippet:

Hi, First, sorry for the crosspost, but it seemed appropriate... :) I've come accross what I consider to be a bug, but I don't know if it's already known or not. (VS .Net 2003 Pro - VB.Net) Whilst playing with inherited forms, I created a simple base form containing a single button. I set this buttons' Click event to be public overridable and put "me.Close" in the code.

Hi, I have a custom form that works fine when I debug it or run it in release mode but cannot be loaded in the designer... Actually, it can be loaded in the designer when no control is on it, but the resizing tool (in the designer) is offset both horizontally and vertically and when I put a control on it, as soon as I save, the designer throws an exception (but cannot be reproduced everytime) and the form cannot be loaded anymore unless...

how do i put an abstract property ( or something that lets me know that derived class has not implemented that particular property ) in base form in my win forms project? if i make the base form abstract then i cannot use the designer? I could use "throw new NotImplementedException();" in the base form property. then i will find out at runtime rather than compile time. TIA

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
