[.net] Inheritance question [solved]
Author
I have a base class 'baseCtrl' and two classes that inherit from it: 'Button' and 'Form'. In guiManager class I have a List of 'baseCtrl' named ManagerBuffer in which all Buttons and Forms get pumped in.
Each Form has a container for Buttons called Bns.
Now what I'm trying to do and can't succed is loop through ManagerBuffer and throw Buttons in Forms.The problem I'm getting is that Bns is Form specific and can't be called while iterating through ManagerBuffer
Here's a snippet:
Any advice how to do it?

List<baseCtrl> ManagerBuffer;//...do { CurrentNofC = ManagerBuffer.Count; bool BreackLoops = false; for (int a = 0; ((a < ManagerBuffer.Count) && (!BreackLoops)); ++a) { for (int b = 0; ((b < ManagerBuffer.Count) && (!BreackLoops)); ++b) { if ((ManagerBuffer[a].Name.CompareTo(ManagerBuffer.Parent) == 0) // If a cotrol (a)is the parent of another control (b) && (ManagerBuffer[a].Name.CompareTo(ManagerBuffer.Name) != 0) // And the cotrols are not the same control // *** added a line: is the target able to accept new buttons? && (ManagerBuffer[a] is Form)) { ((Form)ManagerBuffer[a]).Bns.Add(ManagerBuffer); // Problem solved :) ManagerBuffer.Remove(ManagerBuffer); BreackLoops = true; } } } } while (CurrentNofC > ManagerBuffer.Count);You might want to consider having a Container class (as a subclass of Control):
public class Container: baseCtrl { public List<baseCtrl> Controls;}A Form is then a subclass of Container. This is a very common model in designing GUI systems. My fixes to your code would be pretty similar, just change 'Form' to 'Container' in both places, and change 'Bns' to 'Controls' (a more sane name if containers can contain things other than buttons!).

Nice. Actually at fist it didn't work, I had to modify the code to his:
Couldn't have done it without you though. Thanks!
I'd rate you up but you're already rated to top in my profile :)
