About

OpenMRU.WinForm is a part of OpenMRUSuite and contains WinForm GUI controls for "MRU (Most resently used) files" functionality. (Similar to VisualStudio start window)

Quick start

For to use controls from package, add them to your Toolbox palette by reference this package, then drag-and-drop MRUItemsControl to your form and initialize it with manager and localization. See code below for details (consider you have a form 'Form1', MRUItemsControl 'mruItemsControl1' and Button 'ButtonOpen' on it):

public partial class Form1 : Form
{
    // link to manager.
    private readonly MRUManager manager;

    public Form1()
    {
        InitializeComponent();
        // create IMRUItemStorage implementation using default xml-based storage from OpenMRU.Core
        MRUItemFileStorage storage = new MRUItemFileStorage("demo_mru_storage.xml");
        // create default manager from OpenMRU.Core
        manager = new MRUManager();
        // init manager with storage
        manager.Initialize(storage);
        // subscribe to 'item selected' event
        manager.MRUItemSelected += Manager_MRUItemSelected;
        // init GUI control with created manager and default (eng) localization
        mruItemsControl1.Initialize(manager, new MRUGuiLocalization());
    }

    private void Manager_MRUItemSelected(string path)
    {
        MessageBox.Show("Select file from MRU: " + path);
    }

    // handle open file event
    private void ButtonOpen_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        OpenFileDialog ofd = new OpenFileDialog();
        if (ofd.ShowDialog() == DialogResult.OK)
        {
            string path = ofd.FileName;
            // add file that was selected by user to manager (begin track it and display on GUI)
            manager.AddFile(path);
        }

    }
}
