LoadWithPartialName is deprecated. Don't use it.
It will happily load the newest version of the assembly that's available on the machine. If you think that's what you need, please think again. At some point in the future, this newest version is very likely to be incompatible with your app.

In fact, using LoadWithPartialName in a .NET 2.0 app will crash as soon as a newer .NET 4.0 version of the library is installed.

Thanks for mentioning it, it's also in the documentation that was linked to.

Yup. Even if all the signatures stay the same, something is bound to break sooner or later, and it's always best to be prepared.

It's not obsolete in 2.0, and I doubt that Microsoft will bring out 4.0 with a feature[^] that breaks a lot of existing code Smile | :)

In my app, there was a use of Assembly.LoadWithPartialName("System.Xml"). It caused a crash when .NET 4.0 was installed on the machine.

The documentation of LoadWithPartialName mentions this problem in the exception table:
BadImageFormatException: assemblyFile is not a valid assembly.
-or-
Version 2.0 or later of the common language runtime is currently loaded and partialName was compiled with a later version.

Because it tries to load a 4.0-assembly in a 2.0 application.

I agree that you shouldn't just ask the framework for a dll, but I assumed that you were talking about assemblies that you created yourself, not any of the assemblies from the system.

Smooth Moving of TableLayoutPanel control [modified]

Hi, all,
In my Windows Form, there is a TableLayoutPanel control having about 15 rows(column count is not taken into account) and a Button, and in the button_Click event, there are two methods RemoveUpperRow() and AddNewRow() inserted as follows:

modified: Sorry, just noticed there are sth else I need to provide before you check my codes.There are also one label in each cells in the first column, and this is the reason I am able to do rolling by the following codes. Poke tongue | ;-P

private void RemoveUpperRow()
{
    Control c = tlp_MouseArea.GetControlFromPosition(0, 1);
    tlp_MouseArea.Controls.Remove(c);
    tlp_MouseArea.RowStyles.RemoveAt(0);
    //rolling all rows up by 1...
    for (int i = 1; i < tlp_MouseArea.RowCount; i++)
    {
        c = tlp_MouseArea.GetControlFromPosition(0, i+1);
        if (c == null)
            break;
        TableLayoutPanelCellPosition controlPosition = new TableLayoutPanelCellPosition(0, i);
        tlp_MouseArea.SetCellPosition(c, controlPosition);
    }
}

private void AddNewRow()
{
    tlp_MouseArea.RowStyles.Add(new System.Windows.Forms.RowStyle(System.Windows.Forms.SizeType.Absolute, 18F));

    #region new label and its settings
    Label lbl_New = new Label();
    if (int.Parse(tlp_MouseArea.GetControlFromPosition(0, 13).Text) < 15)
    {
        lbl_New.Text = Convert.ToString(int.Parse(tlp_MouseArea.GetControlFromPosition(0, 13).Text) + 1);
    }
    else
        lbl_New.Text = "0";
    lbl_New.Dock = DockStyle.Fill;
    lbl_New.Font = new System.Drawing.Font("Tahoma", 8F, System.Drawing.FontStyle.Bold, System.Drawing.GraphicsUnit.Pixel, ((byte)(0)));
    lbl_New.TextAlign = ContentAlignment.MiddleCenter;
    #endregion

    TableLayoutPanelCellPosition pos = new TableLayoutPanelCellPosition(0, 14);
    tlp_MouseArea.SetCellPosition(lbl_New, pos);
    tlp_MouseArea.Controls.Add(lbl_New);
}

My problem is that it works fine, but it seems to be too slow, and the whole form is flicking till the end, that's something nobody would want to see. So, is there anything wrong with my code? Would you give me some suggestions? Your kind help is so much appreciated!

Hi,
Thanks for your reply. I've tried that one before, it didn't help. Frown | :(

.
And I tried again after your post, it performs better than the first time, but problem still exists...
I guess, but not quite sure, it caused by that for loop in the first method...
Anyone else have better idea? Thank you.

You can try to enable DoubleBuffering ont he form, but, this is probably not going to fix your problem either. You have to keep in mind that redrawing controls all the time (while you move the grid) is expensive. The more controls you have, the longer the redraw is going to take.

Why bold the entire post?

There are plenty of ways to do these things. Assuming you are speaking of web project, you can do this through the validation controls available. You can have a regular expression validator to do this.

In case of windows forms, use Validating event of the textbox to check text length.

It's not necessary to be so stupid, either, but people manage it. - Christian Graus, 2009 AD

No, a RegEx can be used to do this too. Though, there are other, lighter weight methods to use. If you need to do further validation, RegEx would probably be the way to go.

You can have a hidden html control in your page and share the value through that between client and server side.

you can share this value via hidden control as d@nish said else if you really want to call C# method from javascript then call it like this

<%# serverMethod() %>

You can easily call server side static method, pass some value to it and get the returned value on your page without page postback.
You can write a static Method in your Code-File with:

[System.Web.Services.WebMethod]
public static string MyMethod(string value)
{
    return SomeString;
}

Use Script Manager with PageMethods Enabled.

<asp:ScriptManager ID="ScriptManager1" runat="server" EnablePageMethods="true"/>

Now you can call your server side method with:

PageMethods.MyMethod(valueToPass, ChangeDDLValue, EnableDDL, dest);

for details please go Google about Ajax PageMethods.

Hope this will help

Hi Thanks a lot,

I am using windows application which adds the scripts dynamically using BHO object and identifies the click even of the link.and actually i cant create the files in local disk from javascript(because of the security issues) so i thought of calling a c# method. then i realized that it cant be done.but we can call a webservice which can manipulate my data from javascript.

Once again thanks for the solution.

Hitting the database every time the user changes cell value will not be a great idea. I suggest to have a save button or something of that sort in your form. On click of that button you can update the values back in the database. You can find lots of examples for saving data back to database on web.
