Beginner question on access modifiers
Posted by Frank at 4/21/2006 7:03:28 PM
I have a form implemented as shown below. If I define the tp_
data member as private it is always null in the Click event
handler. When I remove private and let it use the default
access ( which I think is private ) then it is ok ( non null ) in the
Click handler. I don't understand why?

Context menu persisting beyond its scope
Posted by Paul E Collins at 4/21/2006 6:53:05 PM
A context menu is created in the scope of the RightClick event, but it
continues to be displayed after that event handler terminates - i.e.
after it has gone out of scope. The code works correctly, but I feel a
bit odd about it. Is there anything to watch out for here?

C# coding guidelines: use "this." or not when referring to member fields/properties within the object?

I'm never quite sure whether to use "this." or not when referring to fields

but sometimes I wonder if using this. consistently may make the code easier
to understand for someone else, etc. Using "this." makes it immedia... more >>
