WinForm控件开发总结(七)-----为复杂属性的子属性提供编辑功能
前面的几篇文章中,我们给控件添加一个复杂的类型Scope,并且给它的类型提供的一个类型转换器,现在我们可以在属性浏览器中编辑它的值,并且它的值也被串行化的源代码里了。但是你有没有发现,在属性浏览器里编辑这个属性的值还是不太方便。因为属性只是“10,200” 这种形式的,所以,你必须按照这种格式来修改,一旦格式错误就会引发异常,比如输入一个“10200” 。我们期望这个属性的每一子属性都能够被独立的编辑就好了,这并非不能实现,而且实现还很简单。
为了在属性浏览器里能够独立的编辑子属性,我们还要重写两个方法:GetPropertiesSupported()和GetProperties();下面是ScopeConverter的完整代码:
重写这两个方法并编译以后,在测试工程里查看控件的属性,你可以看到Scope是如下的形式:
为了在属性浏览器里能够独立的编辑子属性,我们还要重写两个方法:GetPropertiesSupported()和GetProperties();下面是ScopeConverter的完整代码:
public class ScopeConverter : TypeConverter
{
public override bool CanConvertFrom(ITypeDescriptorContext context, Type sourceType)
{
if (sourceType == typeof(String)) return true;
return base.CanConvertFrom(context, sourceType);
}
public override bool CanConvertTo(ITypeDescriptorContext context, Type destinationType)
{
if (destinationType == typeof(String)) return true;
if (destinationType == typeof(InstanceDescriptor)) return true;
return base.CanConvertTo(context, destinationType);
}
public override object ConvertTo(ITypeDescriptorContext context, System.Globalization.CultureInfo culture, object value, Type destinationType)
{
String result = "";
if (destinationType == typeof(String))
{
Scope scope = (Scope)value;
result = scope.Min.ToString()+"," + scope.Max.ToString();
return result;
}
if (destinationType == typeof(InstanceDescriptor))
{
ConstructorInfo ci = typeof(Scope).GetConstructor(new Type[] {typeof(Int32),typeof(Int32) });
Scope scope = (Scope)value;
return new InstanceDescriptor(ci, new object[] { scope.Min,scope.Max });
}
return base.ConvertTo(context, culture, value, destinationType);
}
public override object ConvertFrom(ITypeDescriptorContext context, System.Globalization.CultureInfo culture, object value)
{
if (value is string)
{
String[] v = ((String)value).Split(',');
if (v.GetLength(0) != 2)
{
throw new ArgumentException("Invalid parameter format");
}
Scope csf = new Scope();
csf.Min = Convert.ToInt32(v[0]);
csf.Max = Convert.ToInt32(v[1]);
return csf;
}
return base.ConvertFrom(context, culture, value);
}
public override bool GetPropertiesSupported(ITypeDescriptorContext context)
{
return true;
}
public override PropertyDescriptorCollection GetProperties(ITypeDescriptorContext context, object value, Attribute[] attributes)
{
return TypeDescriptor.GetProperties(typeof(Scope), attributes);
}
}
在GetProperties方法里,我用TypeDescriptor获得了Scope类的所有的属性描述器并返回。如果你对TypeDescriptor还不熟悉的话,可以参考MSDN。{
public override bool CanConvertFrom(ITypeDescriptorContext context, Type sourceType)
{
if (sourceType == typeof(String)) return true;
return base.CanConvertFrom(context, sourceType);
}
public override bool CanConvertTo(ITypeDescriptorContext context, Type destinationType)
{
if (destinationType == typeof(String)) return true;
if (destinationType == typeof(InstanceDescriptor)) return true;
return base.CanConvertTo(context, destinationType);
}
public override object ConvertTo(ITypeDescriptorContext context, System.Globalization.CultureInfo culture, object value, Type destinationType)
{
String result = "";
if (destinationType == typeof(String))
{
Scope scope = (Scope)value;
result = scope.Min.ToString()+"," + scope.Max.ToString();
return result;
}
if (destinationType == typeof(InstanceDescriptor))
{
ConstructorInfo ci = typeof(Scope).GetConstructor(new Type[] {typeof(Int32),typeof(Int32) });
Scope scope = (Scope)value;
return new InstanceDescriptor(ci, new object[] { scope.Min,scope.Max });
}
return base.ConvertTo(context, culture, value, destinationType);
}
public override object ConvertFrom(ITypeDescriptorContext context, System.Globalization.CultureInfo culture, object value)
{
if (value is string)
{
String[] v = ((String)value).Split(',');
if (v.GetLength(0) != 2)
{
throw new ArgumentException("Invalid parameter format");
}
Scope csf = new Scope();
csf.Min = Convert.ToInt32(v[0]);
csf.Max = Convert.ToInt32(v[1]);
return csf;
}
return base.ConvertFrom(context, culture, value);
}
public override bool GetPropertiesSupported(ITypeDescriptorContext context)
{
return true;
}
public override PropertyDescriptorCollection GetProperties(ITypeDescriptorContext context, object value, Attribute[] attributes)
{
return TypeDescriptor.GetProperties(typeof(Scope), attributes);
}
}
