Vixen 2.x SetupDialog help needed

[Aurbo99]

Hey Folks

I want to take 2 Buttons in my SetupDialog form

Button1;

private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
     {
         SerialSetupDialog dialog = new SerialSetupDialog(this.m_selectedPort);
         if (dialog.ShowDialog() == DialogResult.OK)
         {
             this.m_portAddress = null;
             this.m_selectedPort = dialog.SelectedPort;
         }
     }

Button2;

private void button2_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
     {
         ParallelSetupDialog dialog = new ParallelSetupDialog(this.m_portAddress);
         if (dialog.ShowDialog() == DialogResult.OK)
         {
             this.m_selectedPort = null;
             this.m_portAddress = dialog.PortAddress;
         }
     }

Now how would I identify which button was selected and properly return the HardwareMap?

//for Button1
        public HardwareMap[] HardwareMap
        {
            get
            {
                return new HardwareMap[] { new HardwareMap("Serial", int.Parse(this.m_selectedPort.PortName.Substring(3))) };
            }
        }

//for Button2
public HardwareMap[] HardwareMap
        {
            get
            {
                return new HardwareMap[] { new HardwareMap("Parallel", this.m_portBase, "X") };
            }
        }


//combined?
public HardwareMap[] HardwareMap
        {
         if (this.m_portBase =null)
         get
            {
                return new HardwareMap[] { new HardwareMap("Serial", int.Parse(this.m_selectedPort.PortName.Substring(3))) };
            }
         else if (this.m_selectedPort = null)
         get
             {
                 return new HardwareMap[] { new HardwareMap("Parallel", this.m_portBase, "X") };
             }

Since you are doing an either or situation what I would do is in your setup dialog also have a bool member such as bool m_serialSelected. In each of your buttons you would set that accordingly. The you would also set up a property:
public CheckIfSerialPort
{
get {return m_serialSelected}
}

Then in your main program you would have a global bool _serialSelected. In the Setup() routine you can set this member using your property(_serialSelected = CheckIfSerialPort)

You could then set up an if_then_else statement using that to return the desired HardwareMap.

Thanks Chris

I'll give it a try.. This is one of the snags I have with my miniRDS plugin, I need to give it the choice between LPT and Com

Once I get it to post properly in the Vixen Attach Plugin window, I need to pass either the m_selectedPort or the m_portBase over to the miniRDS.cs module
