IIS 5.0 / VS 2005 / WIN XP Deployment 

I am hoping to use WebGui for a PublicSafety app...looks Great! I have successfully installed Visual WebGui 5.82.9 on a Win XP machine with IIS 5 and Visual Studio 2005.

The Catalog app runs but displays the following upon opening the project:

Warning 1 Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation.  0 0 
Warning 18 The designer must create an instance of type 'Gizmox.WebGUI.Forms.Catalog.BaseForm' but it cannot because the type is declared as abstract.  0 0 

 at System.ComponentModel.Design.Serialization.CodeDomSerializerBase.Error(IDesignerSerializationManager manager, String exceptionText, String helpLink)
at System.ComponentModel.Design.Serialization.TypeCodeDomSerializer.Deserialize(IDesignerSerializationManager manager, CodeTypeDeclaration declaration)
at System.ComponentModel.Design.Serialization.CodeDomDesignerLoader.PerformLoad(IDesignerSerializationManager manager)
at Microsoft.VisualStudio.Design.Serialization.CodeDom.VSCodeDomDesignerLoader.PerformLoad(IDesignerSerializationManager serializationManager)
at System.ComponentModel.Design.Serialization.BasicDesignerLoader.BeginLoad(IDesignerLoaderHost host)

Rebuild is successful but then displays 18 Warnings.

And I cannot display the design of either MainForm.cs or MdiMainForm.cs

 

Kind Regards!

Hi,

Thanks for using VWG...

The Catalog demo uses an abstract class as the BaseForm (from which the application form inherits) that is why the designer cannot show the form (as it is abstract).

Regarding to warnings, there can be some caused by un-careful programming, and there should not be, I hope we will get to reorganize the entire Catalog demo soon :).

I recommend you to use the Quick-Starts the How-To Videos and the Code snippets, they should help you allot in case you are searching for samples.

Regards,
Itzik Spitzen

Thank you for your reply...

I have been in the ~habit~ (good or not) of creating my Web projects in a \projects folder outside \inetpub\wwwroot and then pointing to the project folder when creating the virtual folder in IIS.

I found that once I copied the Catalog project into \inetpub\wwwroot everthing compiled properly.

I also created a VWG project using the "Introduction" Camtasia video ... copied it also into the \inetpub\wwwroot directory. It still didn't run like the ~Intro~ video project BUT then I found the README notes that got pulled into the project that explained how to change the extension on the Form1.

Runs like expected...and Pretty cool!

Thanks again!
