WPFアプリでグリッドデータの変更を制限

10月 23, 2024
WPFグリッドアプリケーションで列を読み取り専用として表示する機能により、可視性を維持しながらデータの整合性と一貫性を保護可能

Read-only columns in a data grid are vertically displayed fields that are not editable by users, but can still be viewed. These columns typically display information that is derived from other data or is considered static and should not be altered. By stopping users from directly modifying certain content, developers can ensure data integrity and consistency while still providing full visibility. This feature prevents accidental or intentional changes that might disrupt the system's functionality. Such restrictions streamline workflows by distinguishing between editable and non-editable data, reducing the risk of errors and improving overall system reliability.

Several WPF grid components allow you to display read-only columns, including:

  • DevExpress WPF Data Grid (part of DevExpress WPF) allows you to designate specific cells as read-only, ensuring data integrity by preventing unwanted edits.
  • FlexGrid for WPF (part of ComponentOne Studio WPF by MESCIUS) provides functionality to mark columns as read-only, enhancing control over user access and data protection.
  • Xceed DataGrid for WPF by Xceed Software helps maintain data consistency and security by restricting editing via read-only mode for any portion of the grid.
  • Infragistics XamDataGrid for WPF (part of Infragistics Ultimate UI for WPF) enables read-only configuration to protect sensitive data from modification whilst maintaining visibility.

LightningChart .NET v12.1.1は、2Dと3Dのインタラクションを強化し、ズーム、回転、パンを洗練し、大規模なデータセットのナビゲーションを改善

LightningChart .NET is a high-performance data visualization library designed for .NET developers working with WPF, WinForms, and UWP applications. It offers GPU-accelerated rendering for smooth real-time visualization of massive datasets, exceeding billions of data points. This library supports a wide variety of chart types, including 2D, 3D, polar, and geographic maps, along with extensive customization options for each. LightningChart .NET is a powerful tool for developers creating demanding data visualization applications requiring exceptional performance.

The LightningChart .NET v12.1.1 update delivers a substantial performance boost to 3D interactions, particularly for large surface-rendering objects such as SurfaceGridSeries3D, SurfaceMeshSeries3D, and MeshModel. This improvement allows for faster zooming, rotating, and panning, significantly enhancing the efficiency of workflows involving complex 3D models. Developers working on mid-level systems will experience at least double the performance, while high-end graphics setups can achieve up to a tenfold increase in speed. These optimizations enable smoother and more responsive interaction with large datasets, leading to more productive and seamless user experiences when working in demanding 3D environments.

To see a full list of what's new in v12.1.1, see our release notes.

LightningChart .NET is available per developer in packages for either WPF, WinForms, UWP or all 3. Each package comes as a subscription license (with 1 or 2 years of limited support), or a perpetual license (with 1 or 2 years of Standard or Premium support).

PowerSNMP for .NET 8.0では、Userオブジェクトに新しいプロパティが追加され、弱い認証アルゴリズムでAES192を使用する場合の柔軟性を提供

PowerSNMP for .NET is a comprehensive .NET library that provides a robust interface for interacting with SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) devices. It offers a wide range of functionalities, including managing SNMP agents, retrieving and setting MIB (Management Information Base) variables, trapping, and configuring SNMP security mechanisms. By leveraging PowerSNMP for .NET, developers can efficiently integrate SNMP capabilities into their .NET applications, enabling them to monitor and control network devices effectively.

The PowerSNMP for .NET 8.0 release adds the AesKeyExpansionAlgorithm property to the User object, enabling the selection of a key expansion algorithm for each user when using AES192 or AES256 encryption with less secure authentication algorithms like SHA-1 or MD5. When processing incoming messages, the chosen algorithm will be prioritized, and if it fails, a fallback to the secondary algorithm will occur. Should both attempts be unsuccessful, an exception will be raised. This enhancement provides greater control and flexibility in managing encryption security on a per-user basis.

To see a full list of what's new in 8.0.0.0, see our release notes.

PowerSNMP for .NET is licensed per developer and is available as a perpetual license with 12 months subscription (product updates and priority email support). See our PowerSNMP for .NET licensing page for full details.
