Procedura: creare e configurare componenti in modalità progettazione
La finestra di progettazione personalizzata consente di creare e configurare a livello di codice i componenti nell'area di progettazione.
Esempio
Nell'esempio di codice riportato di seguito viene illustrato come utilizzare i servizi di progettazione e inizializzare i componenti nella finestra di progettazione personalizzata. Una classe di progettazione denominata DemoControlDesigner è associata a una classe DemoControl ed effettua le seguenti operazioni:
Crea e configura un componente Timer per la visualizzazione nell'area di progettazione.
Rimuove un componente Timer dall'area di progettazione.
Inizializza un'istanza della classe DemoControl quando essa viene creata dalla Casella degli strumenti.

È possibile creare e configurare un componente richiedendo un'istanza dall'ambiente di progettazione e impostandone le proprietà. È inoltre possibile configurare un componente creato dalla Casella degli strumenti.
Creazione e configurazione di un componente a livello di codice
Nell'esempio di codice riportato di seguito viene chiamato il metodo CreateComponent per creare un componente Timer. Il componente Timer viene inizializzato impostandone le proprietà Interval e Enabled.
Nell'esempio viene inoltre utilizzato il metodo GetEventProperty per collegare un gestore eventi.
' This method creates a Timer component using the
' IDesignerHost.CreateComponent method. It also
' creates an event handler for the Timer component's
' tick event.
Private Sub CreateTimer()
If (Me.host IsNot Nothing) Then
If Me.relatedDesigner.createdTimer Is Nothing Then
' Create and configure the Timer object.
Me.relatedDesigner.createdTimer = Me.host.CreateComponent(GetType(Timer))
Dim t As Timer = Me.relatedDesigner.createdTimer
t.Interval = 1000
t.Enabled = True
Dim eventColl As EventDescriptorCollection = TypeDescriptor.GetEvents(t, New Attribute(-1) {})
If (eventColl IsNot Nothing) Then
Dim ed As EventDescriptor = eventColl("Tick")
If (ed IsNot Nothing) Then
Dim epd As PropertyDescriptor = Me.relatedDesigner.eventBindingService.GetEventProperty(ed)
epd.SetValue(t, "timer_Tick")
End If
End If
Me.relatedDesigner.actionUiService.Refresh(Me.relatedControl)
End If
End If
End Sub
// This method creates a Timer component using the
// IDesignerHost.CreateComponent method. It also
// creates an event handler for the Timer component's
// tick event.
private void CreateTimer()
{
if (this.host != null)
{
if (this.relatedDesigner.createdTimer == null)
{
// Create and configure the Timer object.
this.relatedDesigner.createdTimer =
this.host.CreateComponent(typeof(Timer)) as Timer;
Timer t = this.relatedDesigner.createdTimer;
t.Interval = 1000;
t.Enabled = true;
EventDescriptorCollection eventColl =
TypeDescriptor.GetEvents(t, new Attribute[0]);
if (eventColl != null)
{
EventDescriptor ed =
eventColl["Tick"] as EventDescriptor;
if (ed != null)
{
PropertyDescriptor epd =
this.relatedDesigner.eventBindingService.GetEventProperty(ed);
epd.SetValue(t, "timer_Tick");
}
}
this.relatedDesigner.actionUiService.Refresh(this.relatedControl);
}
}
}
Rimozione di un componente a livello di codice
Nell'esempio di codice illustrato di seguito viene chiamato il metodo DestroyComponent per rimuovere un componente Timer dall'ambiente di progettazione.
' This method uses the IDesignerHost.DestroyComponent method
' to remove the Timer component from the design environment.
Private Sub RemoveTimer()
If (Me.host IsNot Nothing) Then
If (Me.relatedDesigner.createdTimer IsNot Nothing) Then
Me.host.DestroyComponent(Me.relatedDesigner.createdTimer)
Me.relatedDesigner.createdTimer = Nothing
Me.relatedDesigner.actionUiService.Refresh(Me.relatedControl)
End If
End If
End Sub
// This method uses the IDesignerHost.DestroyComponent method
// to remove the Timer component from the design environment.
private void RemoveTimer()
{
if (this.host != null)
{
if (this.relatedDesigner.createdTimer != null)
{
this.host.DestroyComponent(
this.relatedDesigner.createdTimer);
this.relatedDesigner.createdTimer = null;
this.relatedDesigner.actionUiService.Refresh(
this.relatedControl);
}
}
}
Inizializzazione di un componente creato dalla Casella degli strumenti
È inoltre possibile configurare i componenti quando vengono creati dalla Casella degli strumenti. Implementare una classe ToolboxItem personalizzata ed eseguire l'override del metodo CreateComponentsCore.
' Toolbox items must be serializable.
<Serializable(), _
System.Security.Permissions.PermissionSetAttribute(System.Security.Permissions.SecurityAction.InheritanceDemand, Name:="FullTrust"), _

Inherits ToolboxItem
' The add components dialog in VS looks for a public

MyBase.New(toolType)
End Sub 'New
' And you must provide this special constructor for serialization.
' If you add additional data to MyToolboxItem that you
' want to serialize, you may override Deserialize and
' Serialize methods to add that data.
Sub New(ByVal info As SerializationInfo, ByVal context As StreamingContext)
Deserialize(info, context)
End Sub 'New

Dim comps As IComponent() = MyBase.CreateComponentsCore(host, defaultValues)
' The returned IComponent array contains a single
' component, which is an instance of DemoControl.
CType(comps(0), DemoControl).Text = "This text was set by CreateComponentsCore."
CType(comps(0), DemoControl).AutoSize = True
Return comps
End Function
End Class
// Toolbox items must be serializable.
[Serializable]
[System.Security.Permissions.PermissionSetAttribute(System.Security.Permissions.SecurityAction.InheritanceDemand, Name="FullTrust")]
[System.Security.Permissions.PermissionSetAttribute(System.Security.Permissions.SecurityAction.LinkDemand, Name="FullTrust")]
class DemoToolboxItem : ToolboxItem
{
// The add components dialog in VS looks for a public
// ctor that takes a type.
public DemoToolboxItem(Type toolType)
: base(toolType)
{
}
// And you must provide this special constructor for serialization.
// If you add additional data to MyToolboxItem that you
// want to serialize, you may override Deserialize and
// Serialize methods to add that data.
DemoToolboxItem(SerializationInfo info, StreamingContext context)
{
Deserialize(info, context);
}
// This implementation sets the new control's Text and
// AutoSize properties.
protected override IComponent[] CreateComponentsCore(
IDesignerHost host,
IDictionary defaultValues)
{
IComponent[] comps = base.CreateComponentsCore(host, defaultValues);
// The returned IComponent array contains a single
// component, which is an instance of DemoControl.
((DemoControl)comps[0]).Text = "This text was set by CreateComponentsCore.";
((DemoControl)comps[0]).AutoSize = true;
return comps;
}
}
Collegare il componente alla classe ToolboxItem utilizzando ToolboxItemAttribute.
<DesignerAttribute(GetType(DemoControlDesigner)), _
ToolboxItem(GetType(DemoControl.DemoToolboxItem))> _
Public Class DemoControl
Inherits Label
[DesignerAttribute(typeof(DemoControlDesigner))]
[ToolboxItem(typeof(DemoToolboxItem))]
public class DemoControl : Label
{
Compilazione del codice
Quando si apportano modifiche agli aspetti relativi alla progettazione di un componente, è necessario ricompilare il progetto di controllo. Se inoltre è aperto un altro progetto Windows Form che utilizza questo componente, è probabile che sarà necessario aggiornare il progetto per visualizzare le modifiche. Di norma, è necessario chiudere e riaprire la finestra di progettazione contenente il componente.
