Is someone willing to help me with a simple VB example?

[Edwin Knoppert]

I seen a lot of examples but it doesn't work out since they are in c.

In VWD i want to prepare a usercontrol.
At this time i use a usercontrol and place a textbox upon it.
Not handy, i lose all direct properties, only with wrappers i can reach them
again.
I seen examples (in c) using some kind of ordinary class which wraps a
control to a new classname, ideal!
However i can't seem to make it work.
Could some please write me a downloadable example (complete project zipped
or so) with the following aspects please? :

Textbox new class MyNewTextbox
Property NewValue (get and set)
Evt. to use from the toolbox.
Assuming all existing properties and events are still available in the IDE,
iow i simply want to extend the textbox control.
All in Visual Basic mode, not c

I think i can manage it from there

Thanks!!
Edwin,

Not sure but IMO it would be best to start by yourself and to ask specific
questions one by one rather than asking someone else to build a sample that
could be not what you wanted...

For now I'm not sure if you want to create a user control or if you want to
create a new control that inherits from an existing control...

I'll check but indeed inherit would be the best.
A UC is rather poor, pasting the refer in each aspx and so.
Also the properties is unhandy.
I just need to extend a textbox therefore inherit seems the best option to
me.

<ToolboxData("<{0}:TextBox runat=server></{0}:TextBox>")> Public Class
TextBox : Inherits WebControls.TextBox
Private _AllowEdit As Boolean = True

<Category("TRC"), DefaultValue(True)> Public Property AllowEdit() As Boolean
Get
Return _AllowEdit
End Get
Set(ByVal Value As Boolean)
_AllowEdit = Value
End Set
End Property

I have seen such code but never understood how to deal with that.
Save it as a specific filetype?
I really don't know.

I'm using VWB 2005 beta2

Thanks,

Add a class to your project.
replace the Public Class line with what I posted.

 

[Harolds]

Actually you need to create a new project, and a class, put in the code I
posted, build that project, add/remove items to your toolbox, select the dll
that was created when you built the new project.

So far the suggestions didn't help, hey it's beta 2 2005, examples are or in
c or older version.
Comon, help me out for this version with a working VB example for a simple
textbox + extra properties ok?
Uncompiled control, like a usercontrol, i don't care if it's in the toolbox
or not.
