I am writing an application that requires the a portion of the main
menu to be dynamic. The menu has file, panels, view files and help
across the top. The view files sub menu needs to be dynamically
generated, and the dynamic generation needs to occur right when the
user selects this menu item (that is on the Popup event handler).
However, everytime I put following code on the Popup event handler (of
the View Files menuitem) to dynamically generate the menu, I get
exceptions:
MenuItem x = new MenuItem("Item 1");
MenuItem y = new MenuItem("Item 2");
this.MenuItemViewFiles.MenuItems.Add(x);
this.MenuItemViewFiles.MenuItems.Add(y);
Note that if I put the code somewhere else, such as when the window
loads, the same code works perfectly fine.
Here's the exception that I get:
