using System;
using System.Windows.Forms;
using WinWrapSamples.AddEvtObExtensions;
namespace WinWrapSamples.AddEvtOb
{
public partial class Form1 : Form
{
private MessageArea MessageArea { get { return Host.MessageArea; } }
public Form1()
{
InitializeComponent();
MessageArea.MessageAreaChanged += MessageArea_MessageAreaChanged;
}
void MessageArea_MessageAreaChanged()
{
textBox1.Text = MessageArea.Text + " at " + MessageArea.TheTime.ToString() + ".";
}
private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
basicIdeCtl1.AddExtension("#", MessageArea.GetType().Assembly);
basicIdeCtl1.AddExtension("Imports WinWrapSamples.AddEvtObExtensions", null);
basicIdeCtl1.AddExtension("Imports WinWrapSamples.AddEvtObExtensions.Host", null);
basicIdeCtl1.FileName = "Macro-Form1.bas";
}
}
}
- "Sub Main" calls the Show method in the NameDialog Class script to display the XAML dialog
using System;
namespace WinWrapSamples.AddEvtObExtensions
{
public class Host
{
static private MessageArea messageArea_ = new MessageArea();
static public MessageArea MessageArea { get { return messageArea_; } }
}
}
- Create the dialog object and then call its Show method.
-
- Define the dialog window and .NET framework controls
- Read and instantiate the WPF window
- Show the XAML Dialog
- Bind the .NET framework controls to the instantiated XAML dialog elements
- Sink the "txtFirstName_TextChanged" events
