I tried to use ApplicationSettingsBase class with MONO 1.1.17.1
Problem 1
Binding bndSize = new Binding("Size", frmSettings1, "FormSize",
true, DataSourceUpdateMode.OnPropertyChanged);
causes error
Method not found: 'System.Windows.Forms.Binding..ctor'
Problem 2.
[DefaultSettingValueAttribute("0, 0")]
causes error
0, 0 is not a valid value for Int32
How to use ApplicationSettingsBase class ?
Andrus.
Code to reproduse (from MSDN sample):
partial class Form1 : Form
{
private FormSettings frmSettings1 = new FormSettings();
public Form1()
{
InitializeComponent();
}
private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
//Associate settings property event handlers.
frmSettings1.SettingChanging += new SettingChangingEventHandler(
frmSettings1_SettingChanging);
frmSettings1.SettingsSaving += new SettingsSavingEventHandler(
frmSettings1_SettingsSaving);
//Data bind settings properties with straightforward associations.
Binding bndBackColor = new Binding("BackColor", frmSettings1,
"FormBackColor", true, DataSourceUpdateMode.OnPropertyChanged);
this.DataBindings.Add(bndBackColor);
Binding bndSize = new Binding("Size", frmSettings1, "FormSize",
true, DataSourceUpdateMode.OnPropertyChanged);
this.DataBindings.Add(bndSize);
Binding bndLocation = new Binding("Location", frmSettings1,
"FormLocation", true, DataSourceUpdateMode.OnPropertyChanged);
this.DataBindings.Add(bndLocation);
//For more complex associations, manually assign associations.
String savedText = frmSettings1.FormText;
//Since there is no default value for FormText.
if (savedText != null)
this.Text = savedText;
}
private void Form1_FormClosing(object sender, FormClosingEventArgs e)
{
//Synchronize manual associations first.
frmSettings1.FormText = this.Text + '.';
frmSettings1.Save();
}
private void btnBackColor_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
if (DialogResult.OK == colorDialog1.ShowDialog())
{
Color c = colorDialog1.Color;
this.BackColor = c;
}
}
private void btnReset_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
frmSettings1.Reset();
this.BackColor = SystemColors.Control;
}
private void btnReload_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
frmSettings1.Reload();
}
void frmSettings1_SettingChanging(object sender,
SettingChangingEventArgs e)
{
tbStatus.Text = e.SettingName + ": " + e.NewValue;
}
void frmSettings1_SettingsSaving(object sender, CancelEventArgs e)
{
//Should check for settings changes first.
DialogResult dr = MessageBox.Show(
"Save current values for application settings?",
"Save Settings", MessageBoxButtons.YesNo);
if (DialogResult.No == dr)
{
e.Cancel = true;
}
}
}
//Application settings wrapper class
sealed class FormSettings : ApplicationSettingsBase
{
[UserScopedSettingAttribute()]
public String FormText
{
get { return (String)this["FormText"]; }
set { this["FormText"] = value; }
}
[UserScopedSetting()]
[DefaultSettingValueAttribute("0, 0")]
public Point FormLocation
{
get { return (Point)(this["FormLocation"]); }
set { this["FormLocation"] = value; }
}
[UserScopedSetting()]
[DefaultSettingValueAttribute("225, 200")]
public Size FormSize
{
get { return (Size)this["FormSize"]; }
set { this["FormSize"] = value; }
}
[UserScopedSetting()]
[DefaultSettingValueAttribute("LightGray")]
public Color FormBackColor
{
get { return (Color)this["FormBackColor"]; }
set { this["FormBackColor"] = value; }
}
}
