Therefore how I refresh properties views in VS programmaticall y(VS= Visual Studio)

Laurent Liegeois

Hi,
I try to write a Web Custom Control. But I have a little problem for
refreshing the properties view of my Web Control in Visual Studio ().

When I modify the value of text property of my Control by programing, it
changes in the Design view but no in properties viewAnd when in the
design view, I lost the focus and I click above my control. It is
refreshed and text property contains the good value.

Therefore how I refresh properties views programmaticall y
In fact I look for a method similar to
ControlDesigner .UpdateDesignTi meHtml() for properties view in VS.
Thank you in advance for your help.

Hi Laurent,

Frankly I haven't written web controls but in WindowsForms controls (and I
believe it goes for web too) in order to play nicely with the designer you
should notify for any the changes of the control in order property browser
to be refreshed accordingly and Undo/Redo to work. You can do that in two
ways.

1. When you change a property you should call IComponentChang eService's
OnComponentChan ging and OnComponentChan ged.

-or-

2. (This is what I sugges) to change the propties not directly, but via
PorpertyDescrip tor obtained from components TypeDescriptor. This will take
kare of all notifications for you.

Views vs Queries

by: Mike N. | last post by:

Hello: I am new to T-SQL programing, and relativly new to SQL statements in general, although I have a good understanding of database theory. I'm a little confused as to the fundamental differences between a view and a query, or rather, when it is more appropriate to use one vs. the other. It seems to me that most select queries can be implemented as views, and I can't see the downside to doing so.

Indexed Views Vs temp tables

by: Avirneni | last post by:

With my understanding of indexed views and according to books I read "indexed views" are supposed to perform much better than "temp tables" (temp table having primary key and indexed view with clustered index on the same keys). But when I tried in my system I am getting opposite results. With Indexed Views it takes 3 times more time. Any body has any reasons for that? Or my understanding was wrong?
