Get Controls

[PIEBALDconsult]

Each Panel has a Controls property, no?

You can use something like this:

foreach (Form frm in Application.OpenForms)
{
foreach (Control ctrl in frm.Controls)
MessageBox.Show(ctrl.Text);
}

This contains two foreach statement but indepedent of how many forms you have, you can get their controls. zafer

You're right, but I have only one form, my form contains two Panels and each Panels contains some Controls. Your foreach statements give me my Panels only. Thanks

While (true) { Human.isLearnable = true; }

[Pedram Behroozi]

Yes it has but I don't want to have a foreach statement per panel. Thanks

While (true) { Human.isLearnable = true; }

Use two foreach statements. Like this: foreach (Control oCtrl in this.Controls){ // Do something foreach(Control oCtrl1 in oCtrl.Controls){ // Do something } }

It's possible only for two panels. I wont be glad if i have 3 panels in my form and each one contains 4 panels inside... X| however thanks. :)

While (true) { Human.isLearnable = true; }

In that case you can use conditional recursion by checking if current control has child controls.

Yeah, that's how I'd do it.

[Wendelius]

Each 'container' has it's own control collection so you have to loop each one of them. The most easiest way is to create a method for listing controls and call this method recursively passing the collection (for example List) as a parameter. Pseudo-code would be something like:

GetControls(List controlList, Control parent) {
foreach (Control ctrl in parent.Controls) {
controlList.Add(ctrl); //or whatever you want to do
GetControls(controlList, ctrl);
}
}

The need to optimize rises from a bad design

Well then, just find something else to do with your time. If it's not freakin' obvious what you have to do, and that "not wanting to" isn't a viable tack if you want to accomplish your goal, you shouldn't be a programmer. I bet you could find a job sweeping standing water off of sidewalks. Oh wait, that requires a little effort as well. Oh wait! Try just staring off into space. That should keep your feeble excuse for a brain busy.

You guys are wasting your time. He probably thinks "recursion" is having to visit the toilet more than once in a 60-second time frame.

Ever heard about Recursion ?[^]

Or recursion[^]? ;)

[Pedram Behroozi]

Sorry if I'm wasting your time... I'm not an expert like you... Yeah, I know Recursion, I'll use it... Thanx :)
