篇首语:本文由小常识网(cha138.com)小编为大家整理,主要介绍了PropertyGrid—属性类别排序相关的知识,希望对你有一定的参考价值。

 属性默认按照字母顺序排序,有时,我们想要按自定义的顺序排序

这个工具类可以把每个属性类别里的属性排序,但是不能把属性类别排序。

为属性类添加属性:[TypeConverter(typeof(PropertySorter))]
为每个属性添加属性:[PropertyOrder(10)]

 

private void Form_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    propertyGrid1.SelectedObject = new Person();
}
[TypeConverter(typeof(PropertySorter))]
[DefaultProperty("Name")]
public class Person
{
    protected const string PERSONAL_CAT = "Personal Details";
    
    private string _name = "Bob";
    private DateTime _birthday = new DateTime(1975,1,1);

    [Category(PERSONAL_CAT), PropertyOrder(10)]
    public string Name
    {
        get {return _name;} 
        set {_name = value;} 
    }

    [Category(PERSONAL_CAT), PropertyOrder(11)]
    public DateTime Birthday
    {
        get {return _birthday;}
        set {_birthday = value;}
    }

    [Category(PERSONAL_CAT), PropertyOrder(12)]
    public int Age
    {
        get 
        {
            TimeSpan age = DateTime.Now - _birthday; 
            return (int)age.TotalDays / 365; 
        }
    }
}

  属性排序方式

  属性的排序是基于容器类的.sort();实现的。因为控件通过TypeConverter.GetProperties();方法获得PropertyDescriptorCollection类型的对象。并根据此对象的元素设定SelectedObject的表现方式等。故实现属性类的排序首先需要获得对象的集合,然后使其按指定方式排序。因为sort()方法接受string[]类型的参数作为排序依据,其相对于属性的排序是比对其Name属性(或DisplayName属性),而我们需要在保证本地化的前提下完成排序,所以我们要在抛开其Name属性(或者DisplayName)的前提下实现排序(理论上我们能获得属性property的name属性,即方法名,但是笔者在实践中设定字符串数组中依次填入name作为排序依据,未能成功,非本地化的情况下可以实现,现在仍未找到原因,猜测其可能会以DisplayName替代Name返回???)。基于以上分析与原因,我们需要给每个属性Property添加一个属性Attribute可以作为排序的依据。到此,存在一个问题。如何根据新的属性(代称为order)对Property进行排序。较为优雅的方法是实现IComparable()接口。

  事例代码如下:(部分代码来源于网络,感谢先辈)

[AttributeUsage(AttributeTargets.Property)]
    public class PropertyOrderAttribute : Attribute//自定义Attribute类,向property提供

```````````````````````````````````````````````````//order属性
    {
        private int order;

        public PropertyOrderAttribute(int order)
        {
            this.order = order;
        }

        public int Order
        {
            get
            {
                return order;
            }
        }
    }

 

 class TestPropertyDescriptor : PropertyDescriptor,IComparable//继承PropertyDescriptor类并实现IComparable接口
    {
        private PropertyDescriptor basePropertyDescriptor;
        private int order;
        ...

                //构造函数

        public TestPropertyDescriptor(PropertyDescriptor basePropertyDescriptor): base(basePropertyDescriptor)
        {
            this.basePropertyDescriptor = basePropertyDescriptor;
            order = GetOrder(basePropertyDescriptor.Attributes);
        }

                //获得property的order属性

        private int GetOrder(AttributeCollection ac)
        {
            foreach (Attribute a in ac)
            {
                if (a is PropertyOrderAttribute)
                    return ((PropertyOrderAttribute)a).Order;
            }
            return 0;

        }

        
        ...

        #region "IComparable"
        public int CompareTo(object tpd)//实现接口,使此类的对象可以依据order进行比较、排序
        {
            TestPropertyDescriptor other = (TestPropertyDescriptor)tpd;
            if (order == other.order) return string.Compare(Name, other.Name);
            else return (order > other.order) ? 1 : -1;
        }
        #endregion
    }

 

   

 

class ICustomTDClass1: Class1 , ICustomTypeDescriptor//Class1为需要对其属性进行排序的自定义类。

{

...

 public PropertyDescriptorCollection GetProperties(Attribute[] attributes)
       {

            PropertyDescriptorCollection tmpPDC = TypeDescriptor.GetProperties(typeof(ICustomTDClass1), attributes);
            PropertyDescriptorCollection result = new PropertyDescriptorCollection(null);
            ArrayList orderPdList = new ArrayList();

            foreach (PropertyDescriptor pd in tmpPDC)
            {
                 TestPropertyDescriptor tpd = new TestPropertyDescriptor(pd);
                 result.Add(tpd);
                 orderPdList.Add(tpd);

            }
            orderPdList.Sort();//根据order排序
            ArrayList propertyNames = new ArrayList();
            foreach (TestPropertyDescriptor propertyAttributes in orderPdList)//获得排序后的DisplayName数组
            {
                propertyNames.Add(propertyAttributes.DisplayName);
            }

            return result.Sort((string[])propertyNames.ToArray(typeof(string)));//根据数组对结果排序,注意这里不能直接return `````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````//result.Sort(),因为在result里存着的是PropertyDescriptor类`````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````//型的对象,而不是我们定义的TestPropertyDescriptor类`````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````//型。至此,排序功能圆满完成。
