Automating Managed WinForms Applications... .

Hi All,

Have anybody seen somewhere techniques like the one described here:

Automating Windows Applications
http://www.thecodeproject.com/com/au...indowsapps.asp

but for managed WinForms application?

Basically what is needed:

- inject unmanaged .DLL into managed application;
- from this unmanaged .DLL load managed ClassLibrary having one or more
classes with registered CCW;
- allow access to injected managed ClassLibrary to the main thread's
active(shown) WinForms and their controls given a these WinForms' and
controls' HWNDs. By "allowing access" I mean manipulating properties' values
of shown WinForms and Controls...

Thank you in advance for any information on subject.

I saw the following requirement somewhere: "....using WinForms and the screens should be described in XML. The XML is to prescribe both the layout as well as the connectivity to the underlying model" Can someone tell me how a Windows Form can be described in XML?

I have successfully linked to the Access ADP, but would really like to...

I am using Managed C++ with a CFormView and a MaskedTextBox and have used MAKE_DELEGATE to sink the LostFocus event of this control. I have other events I've sinked off this control and they all work fine, however, the LostFocus does not fire. I found Scribble online and they do the same thing I did, however, when I used this code in Visual Studio 2005 the LostFocus event didn't get fired either.

Guys, I've been designing applications for the financial services industry using MSFT technologies for many years (Win32 API, MFC, and now .NET WinForms).

Customers are pleased with my work but it seems that over the past twelve months or so, those same customers have expressed a strong demand to...

Here I am learning WinForms and two months into it I learn there's a WPF API that is coming out. Is this WPF out yet, and is it a threat to WinForms, in the sense that all the library routines I memorize and/ or familiarize myself in WinForms will disappear in WPF? I did note in one early version of C#, the non-generic "ArrayList" was replaced by the generic and template <based List, but that kind of change is not a big deal. If WPF...

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,...

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers. The idea...
