Due to some requirements, I have to close SaveFileDialog
programmatically without using PINVOKE.
Is there any way to close SaveFileDialog
other than using the PINVOKE way?
I had tried to close the owner form of the SaveFileDialog
, but the SaveFileDialog
still there.
What I had tried:
ShowDialog()
of SaveFileDialog
.SaveFileDialog.Dispose()
Closing the owner
window passed to the ShowDialog(owner);
method should work. For example:
private static Form CreateDummyForm(Form owner) {
Form dummy = new Form();
IntPtr hwnd = dummy.Handle; // force handle creation
if (owner != null) {
dummy.Owner = owner;
dummy.Location = owner.Location;
owner.LocationChanged += delegate {
dummy.Location = owner.Location;
};
}
return dummy;
}
[STAThread]
static void Main() {
Form form = new Form();
form.Size = new Size(400,400);
Button btn = new Button { Text = "btn" };
btn.Click += delegate {
SaveFileDialog fsd = new SaveFileDialog();
int timeoutMillis = 5000;
Form dummy = CreateDummyForm(form); // Close disposes the dummy form
Task.Delay(TimeSpan.FromMilliseconds(timeoutMillis)).ContinueWith((t) => { dummy.Close(); dummy.Dispose(); }, TaskScheduler.FromCurrentSynchronizationContext());
fsd.ShowDialog(dummy);
fsd.Dispose();
};
form.Controls.Add(btn);
Application.Run(form);
}
