将值从登录表单传递到主表单

Question

I have a login screen and I need to pass username to my main form (for getting permissions etc.). Here is my code:

//Login
private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(txtUser.Text))
        {
            //Show warning
        }
        else if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(txtPass.Text))
        {
            //Show warning
        }

        using (DataTable dt = LookupUser(txtUser.Text)) //Look into SQL data table for username and password
        {
            if (dt.Rows.Count == 0)
            {
                //Show warning
            }
            else
            {
                string dbPassword = Convert.ToString(dt.Rows[0]["pass"]);
                string appPassword = Encrypt(txtPass.Text);
                if (string.Compare(dbPassword, appPassword) == 0)
                {
                    //I need to pass username value to myForm...
                    DialogResult = DialogResult.OK;
                }
                else
                {
                    //Show warning
                }
            }
        }

//Program.cs
static void Main()
    {
        Application.EnableVisualStyles();
        Application.SetCompatibleTextRenderingDefault(false);
        DialogResult result;
        using (var loginForm = new Login())
            result = loginForm.ShowDialog();
        if (result == DialogResult.OK)
        {
            Application.Run(new myForm());
        }
    }

What would be the best way to pass value from loginForm to Program.cs and myForm?

Answer 1

In login form

public string UserName {get; private set;}

if (string.Compare(dbPassword, appPassword) == 0)
                {
                    UserName = txtUser.Text;
                    //I need to pass username value to myForm...
                    DialogResult = DialogResult.OK;
                }
                else
                {
                    //Show warning
                }

in main

    DialogResult result;
    using (var loginForm = new Login())
        result = loginForm.ShowDialog();
    if (result == DialogResult.OK)
    {
        var username = loginForm.UserName;
        Application.Run(new myForm(username));
    }

Answer 2

Expose username as a string property of your login form class. This way you'll be able to fetch it after the form will be closed (it will still remain in memory).

Answer 3

it is simply use EF on your codes just like below

  }
    Siman_dbEntities db = new Siman_dbEntities();
    public string UserNameLogedIn;
    private void btnLogin_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
    var login = from b in db.Tbl_Users.Where(b => b.Username == txtUsername.Text && b.Password == txt_Password.Text)
                    select b;
        if (login.Count()==1)
        {
            this.Hide();
            main frmmain = new main();
            frmmain.Show();
        }
        var query = db.Tbl_Users.Where(c => c.Username == txtUsername.Text).Single();
        UserNameLogedIn = query.Name.ToString();

    }

1. This is the best way to transfer data from one form to another, On the LoginForm.cs write like this:

    ex.UserName = txtUserName.text; Password=txtPassword.text; MainForm mainForm = new MainForm(UserName,Password); this.Hide(); mainForm.Show(); 

2. In the MainForm.cs edit the

   public MainForm () { }

like this:

public MainForm(string userName,string password){
}
