Please Help! To be simple this is my problem:
I have a class MyScore that "accepts" any string that "X:Y" represents, and converts it in the correct "X:Y" format. Say strings like "5:2", "0:0", "9:14" etc are accepted, and transformed in "X:Y"(where X and Y are any natural number), any other string is rejected, like "b:7" or "+9"
Now, I have a ScoreTextBox, that uses the MyScore class constructor that leaves the user to enter only valid scores, by default leaving "_:_" format.
So. Actually, I need to have exactly the same behavior like does my ScoreTextBox. Exactly the same. Is not desirable to rewrite or duplicate the existing ScoreTextBox code.
Now, I thought that putting myScoreTextBox instance as EditorControl to a cell will be sufficient. But I discovered that I need to implement on ScoretextBox a IProvidesEmbeddableEditor, so have an EmbeddableEditorBase.
Please help. I use the Score(string) constructor to determinate if the text is valid or not (in case of exception I invalidate the text to default one)
How can I implement Editor for this textBox, need I to do that?
Hi,
Sorry, but you lost me about half way through your post.

What is the "MyFoo" object?

What exactly do you want to have the same behavior as the ScoreTextBox?
I think what you have probably done is creating a control and you want to embed that control in a grid cell. In which case the way to do that is to use the UltraControlContainerEditor.
I wrote initially MyFoo, after that I changed it to "MyScore" to be more closer to the real project situation. I fixed this miss.
I really would like that the cell behaves(validates the value, and filters invalid input) like my ScoreTextBox does.
Unfortunately I didn't find a UltraControlContainerEditor in the Infragistics.Win.UltraWinEditors namespace. I use the 6.3 version of Infragistics, Normal 0 21 false false false MicrosoftInternetExplorer4 installed the latest "Service Release" of it.
