I'm using the PropertyGrid, and have it bound to a class object. Works
fine - however, I have some properties that I want to show up on the grid
(i.e. they are browsable) -YET- I don't want the user to be able to change
them; i.e. want them ReadOnly to the grid. I tried setting that classes
property to the ReadOnly attrib, but it wouldn't take it. (Keywork is not
valid as an identifier)
So how can one have a property value that shows up on the property grid YET
is ReadOnly? I'm sure it has got to be some attribute but can't figure out
what it is.
Thanks.

Never mind, figured it out. Turns out you can't put the attribute
READONLY(TRUE) on the property, BUT you can put READONLYATTRIBU TE(TRUE) on
the property and it works!?! I am not sure what the difference is between
the two... but the second one does work.

Since ReadOnly is a VB keyword, you would have to place it in square
brackets:
<[Readonly](True)>

Now I am developing a tool, just like VS.net Form Edition environment.
User can edit a component's properties by a PropertyGrid control.
Now I have some questions about this PropertyGrid control:

as you know, In VS.net, when we input a component name that is same with an
existed name in the propertygrid, an error message will pop up: "Invalid
property value".
Now, my question is, how to implement...

I want to be able to reset a complex property in a PropertyGrid. I know that for properties that are ValueTypes you can include System.ComponentModel.DefaultValue in the declaration of the property. But, for complex property types (e.g., instance types) this does not work because System.ComponentModel.DefaultValue requires a constant value
In order to indicate if a property should be serialized you can include a boolean function named...

Hi all,
how can I hide a property in a derived class in a propertygrid.
Let's say I have a classX and a derived classY. A property in classX will be
visible in the propertygrid but the same property in the derived classY will
not be visible in the propertygrid.
Does anyone know how to do this ?

But I only want some of the object's properties not browsable and/or

Hi,
I have a form with a control..(a button for example). Then the
control properties are displayed in a propertyGrid control.
Is there any simple way to remove some unwanted properties from the
propertyGrid....removing the "AccessibleName" properties by example?
Any example about how to play with the PropertyDescriptorCollection to
remove some properties??

Hello all,
I have a class instance that I'm attaching to a propertygrid. I would like to find a way to change the "Browsable" attribute during runtime or programmatically from outside the class definition. I would like the end result to display certain contents of the class based on the "machinetype" variable's value.
Any suggestions?

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.
