Visual C# Express Bug?? :(

[Danny Tuppeny]

Hi All,

I've created an empty class that inherits from ListView:

Class MyListView : System.Windows.Forms.ListView
{
}

My prooject builds fine, but when I try to drag this control onto a form, I
get an error saying it couldn't be loaded, and will be removed from the
toolbox! (to then be put back in while I build again).

If I drag a ListView on, and then modify the initializecomponent code, and
replace ListView with MyListView, and run the project, it works fine.
However, in VC#E, I get nice big error saying MyListView can't be found, and
to make sure I've added a reference to the assembly etc. etc.


I assume this is a bug in the IDE (since the app runs fine) - is there any
way I can work around it, so I can see the designer? :-\

What's a prooject? (Or do you just type with an accent?)

What happens if you add a constructor and call the base class
constructor from it? Does that have any effect?

Are yoo makin' fun of da way I talk^h^h^hype?

Nope

My class looks like:

class ColTreeView : System.Windows.Forms.ListView
{

public ColTreeView()
: base()
{
}

}

I rebuilt the project first, then tried dragging it on. Same error, and same
removal from the toolbox :-(
