Hi all,
I'd really appreciate it if someone was able to help me out with a
problem I'm having with C#. I'm a complete newbie to this, so please
excuse what may appear as a stupid question. Basically, I'm trying to
write a .NET distributed app (hopefully
) with Indigo and .NET
Framework 2.0 (C# as my language of choice). Anyway, what I have is a
client-side object library that, when requested, will create a login
form and pass it back to the client of the library. My intention is for
the user to interact with the user interface to log into the
system.This is where it all goes a little but downhill. The actual
application that uses the object library is shown below:
==============================
Note: HIC means Human Interface Client.
==============================
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Text;
using WorkshopLoading.Client;
using System.Windows.Forms;
namespace WorkshopLoadingHIC
{
class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
Console.WriteLine("HIC Started...");
SystemClient sysClient = new SystemClient();
Console.WriteLine("Registering client with server...");
Console.WriteLine("Creating user login screen...");
WorkshopLoading.Client.LoginPromptForm loginForm =
sysClient.GenerateLoginPrompt();
loginForm.Show();
Console.ReadLine();
}
}
}
As you can see from this code I am attempting to create an instance of
a Windows form that has a reference to the underlying client that
created it. The user of the system creates an instance of the client,
it should (when implemented) register itself with a server and then
allow the user to log-in by providing the appropriate UI.
Anyway, the code above seems to work. I create an instance of the
SystemClient (the object is called 'sysClient'). I ask it to return to
me a Windows.Forms Form of type LoginPromptForm and then I ask it to
show itself. The problem is when I call the show method the form
appears but the controls on the form (such as the buttons Login and
Cancel) appear white (as if they are not being re-drawn properly). Then
the entire Windows Form window turns white and it reads (Not
responding...) in the Window's caption. I haven't got the fogiest what
is going on and I'd really appreciate it someone was able to point out
my mistake.
