像Component的Control

像Component的Control


當我第一次接觸到ToolStrip控件時,我很好奇,為何此控件的行為就像是Component一樣,意思是當你將其拖到Form上後,除了在Form上看到她外,你還可以在Component Tray上找到她,如下圖:


那這是如何達到的呢?在經過探索.NET Designer內部行為後,我發現到DocumentDesigner會針對ToolStrip控件做特別的處理,除了運行一般的控件處理外,DocumentDesigner最後會將ToolStrip加到ComponentTray中,這個動作使得ToolStrip控件可以出現在Component Tray(下方的元件區)中。好了!知道.NET Designer是如何達到這個效果了之後,接下來的問題是,我們自訂的控件也可以做到這點嗎?答案是肯定的,雖然DocumentDesigner屬於Form Designer層級,我們無法在不建立自訂Form的情況下改變其行為,但我們可以由ComponentDesigner下手,將該控件加到Component Tray中,要達到這點,第一件事是要取得ComponentTray的實體,這可透過以下的程式碼達到。

public
class
MyTextBoxDesigner : ControlDesigner

{


public
override
void Initialize(IComponent component)

{


IDesignerHost host = (IDesignerHost)component.Site.GetService(typeof(IDesignerHost));


ComponentTray tray = (ComponentTray)host.GetService(typeof(ComponentTray));


........................


base.Initialize(component);

}

}

程式中首先透過componet.Site.GetService函式來取得DesignerHost物件,透過這個物件,我們可以取得目前作用中的ComponentTray物件,然後就能將自訂的控件加到Component Tray中,這樣就能讓控件出現在Component Tray區中。

public
class
MyTextBoxDesigner : ControlDesigner

{


public
override
void Initialize(IComponent component)

{


...................


if (tray == null)

{


IComponent comp = host.CreateComponent(typeof(MyComponent));

tray = (ComponentTray)host.GetService(typeof(ComponentTray));


if (tray == null)


throw
new
SystemException("can't create component tray.");

tray.AddComponent(component);

host.DestroyComponent(comp);

}


else

tray.AddComponent(component);


base.Initialize(component);

}

}

由於ComponentTray物件在該Form上無任何Component的情況下,是不會被建立的,因此當ComponentTray未被建立時,程式會透過DesignHost物件來建立一個DummyComponent,這個DummyComponent是我們自訂的Component,其只是一個極為簡單、無作用的Component。

[ToolboxItem(false)]

public
class
DummyComponent : Component

{

}

當這個DummyComponent被加入後,ComponetTray物件就會被建立起來,剩下的工作就是將控件加到ComponentTray中,並移除DummyComponent,這樣一來,我們就完成了一個可出現於Component Tray中的控件了,以下是完整的程式碼。

using System;

using System.ComponentModel;

using System.ComponentModel.Design;

using System.Collections.Generic;

using System.Text;

using System.Windows.Forms;

using System.Windows.Forms.Design;


namespace ClassLibrary1

{

[Designer(typeof(MyTextBoxDesigner))]


public
class
MyTextBox:TextBox

{


private
string _information;



public
string Information

{


get

{


return _information;

}


set

{

_information = value;

}

}

}


[ToolboxItem(false)]


public
class
MyComponent : Component

{

}



public
class
MyTextBoxDesigner : ControlDesigner

{


public
override
void Initialize(IComponent component)

{


IDesignerHost host = (IDesignerHost)component.Site.GetService(typeof(IDesignerHost));


ComponentTray tray = (ComponentTray)host.GetService(typeof(ComponentTray));


if (tray == null)

{


IComponent comp = host.CreateComponent(typeof(DummyComponent));

tray = (ComponentTray)host.GetService(typeof(ComponentTray));


if (tray == null)


throw
new
SystemException("can't create component tray.");

tray.AddComponent(component);

host.DestroyComponent(comp);

}


else

tray.AddComponent(component);


base.Initialize(component);

}

}

}

下圖是執行結果。
