Guy, just discovered that the combination of visual inheritance and reflection
can
eliminate most of the databinding i would normally do, providing the
design
is right!
and its only taken me 4 years lol
And your program is probably performing with the same speed as a VB6
program.

That's a little harsh, Cor. I can see how Databinding /w Reflection could
make VB much more RAD akin to MS Access and might remove a lot of the
tediousness with first time set up of forms. If Microsoft has tied the
TableAdaptor to the Dataset, they might as well go the whole 9 yards.

I'm intrigued do you have an example you could share?
hi,
cant give you the code as its in a number of methods in a couple of classes
but:-
in the base form...
load event get a hashtable of all the controls you might want to bind to
add an event handler that binds to the leave event or similar (1 handler for
all the controls) that handler can then use reflection to update the
appropriate property in the business object.
declare a business object of base type
write a display method that uses reflection to display all the properies in
the business object, call this from the event raised in the business object
(below)
ensure that when you name controls in the form they correspond to property
names in the business class, with + txt, lbl or whatever
in the base business class...
raie an event when any property you are interested in changes value
thats pretty much it (written at 3am so i may have missed a few bits!)
drop me an email to gu**********@ho tmail.com and i will send you the code
when i have it fully tidied up
cheers

So you're not really using DataBinding, but just updating the appropriate
Property when a control changes?
And how does it work when one of the property's of your business object
changes, and the Form must be updated?

Hi Pieter,
no i am not using data binding (except for a few things) it is something i
wanted to move awaw from. If a property in my business object changes i use
an event to update the form.

I've almost completed building a Model-View-Controller but have run into a
snag. When an event is fired on a form control I want to automatically
updated the "connnected" property in the Model. This works fine if all of
the properties are at the top (root level) of the model but I'd like to keep
them in nested classes to organize them better.
So, for example, part of my data model looks like this (simplified) :

Hi everyone,
I've been trying to execute a control's private event code via reflection
from another class with the goal of potentially doing some unit testing. The
examples below are trying to execute button2's click event.
This works great when i know the name of the method that i want to invoke. I
do so by doing this:

Hello all
Does anyone know of a good way to use reflection in c++?
I don't mean simply using rtti or dynamic casting.
I'm talking about java/c# style reflection where an actual instance of
an object can be constructed through reflection and method calls can be
made via the reflection apis.

What good is C# Reflection, other than to find out what types are in
an assembly? And to dynamically invoke methods in an assembly (.dll
or .exe)?
Also, bonus question, can you use Reflection to build a compiler? One
that will construct a user defined class "on the fly" (literally, the
user defines a class, instantiates it, and runs it from the console
mode, all the while prompted by the program)?
I guess so, but my final question...
