"InvokePaint" is displaying error, "this" of the InvokePaint method is supposed to be a class, but i don't know which class it should be, any help will be appreciated.
SqlDataAdapter da = new SqlDataAdapter("Select * from CallRegister", data.getCon());
DataTable dt = new DataTable("Call Reciept");
da.Fill(dt);
DataGrid dg = new DataGrid();
dg.ItemsSource = dt.DefaultView;
System.Drawing.Size m = new System.Drawing.Size((int)dg.Width, (int)dg.Height);
System.Windows.Forms.PaintEventArgs myPaintArgs = new System.Windows.Forms.PaintEventArgs(e.Graphics, new System.Drawing.Rectangle(new System.Drawing.Point(0, 0),m));
this.InvokePaint(dg, myPaintArgs);
This method can be called only from WindowsForms
control as MSDN says:
Raises the Paint event for the specified control. Namespace:
System.Windows.Forms Assembly: System.Windows.Forms (in System.Windows.Forms.dll)
So this code should be called from hosted WinForms
control inside WPF project:
this.InvokePaint((dg, myPaintArgs);
Update. To print Datagrid:
XAML:
<DataGrid ItemsSource="{Binding Path=Persons, Mode=TwoWay}" Name="dataGrid"/>
<Button Grid.Row="1" Click="Button_Click" Content="Print DataGrid"/>
Code behind:
private void Button_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
var pd = new PrintDialog();
var result = pd.ShowDialog();
if (result.HasValue && result.Value)
pd.PrintVisual(dataGrid, "My WPF printing a DataGrid");
}
