How to close form in C#

问题

Ok, so a Windows Forms class, WindowSettings, and the form has a "Cancel"-button. When the user clicks the button, the dialog DialogSettingsCancel will pop-up up and ask the user if he is sure he wants to perform the action. The dialog has 2 buttons, a "Yes"-button and a "No"-button. If the user clicks the "Yes"-button, I want both DialogSettingsCancel and WindowSettings to be closed.

My button_Click event handler in DialogSettingsCancel:

private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    //Code to trigger when the "Yes"-button is pressed.
    WindowSettings settings = new WindowSettings();
    this.Close();
    settings.Close();
}

When I run my application, and go to the settings form, and click the "Cancel"-button, and then click the "Yes"-button, only DialogSettingsCancel closes without closing WindowSettings.

Why won't it work?

I've also tried changing

this.Close();
settings.Close();

settings.Close();
this.Close();

But still the same result.

You need the actual instance of the WindowSettings that's open, not a new one.

Currently, you are creating a new instance of WindowSettings and calling Close on that. That doesn't do anything because that new instance never has been shown.

Instead, when showing DialogSettingsCancel set the current instance of WindowSettings as the parent.

Something like this:

In WindowSettings:

private void showDialogSettings_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    var dialogSettingsCancel = new DialogSettingsCancel();
    dialogSettingsCancel.OwningWindowSettings = this;
    dialogSettingsCancel.Show();
}

In DialogSettingsCancel:

public WindowSettings OwningWindowSettings { get; set; }

private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    this.Close();
    if(OwningWindowSettings != null)
        OwningWindowSettings.Close();
}

This approach takes into account, that a DialogSettingsCancel could potentially be opened without a WindowsSettings as parent.

If the two are always connected, you should instead use a constructor parameter:

In WindowSettings:

private void showDialogSettings_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    var dialogSettingsCancel = new DialogSettingsCancel(this);
    dialogSettingsCancel.Show();
}

In DialogSettingsCancel:

WindowSettings _owningWindowSettings;

public DialogSettingsCancel(WindowSettings owningWindowSettings)
{
    if(owningWindowSettings == null)
        throw new ArgumentNullException("owningWindowSettings");

    _owningWindowSettings = owningWindowSettings;
}

private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    this.Close();
    _owningWindowSettings.Close();
}

回答2:

new WindowSettings();

You just closed a brand new instance of the form that wasn't visible in the first place.

You need to close the original instance of the form by accepting it as a constructor parameter and storing it in a field.

回答3:

Why not use the DialogResult method to close the form?

if(DialogSettingsCancel.ShowDialog() == DialogResult.Yes)
{
     this.close();
}

For this to work however you will need to do it inside your "WindowSettings" form while you call the DialogSettingsCancel form. Much the same way you would call the OpenFileDialog, or any other Dialog form.

回答4:

Your closing your instance of the settings window right after you create it. You need to display the settings window first then wait for a dialog result. If it comes back as canceled then close the window. For Example:

private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    Settings newSettingsWindow = new Settings();

    if (newSettingsWindow.ShowDialog() == DialogResult.Cancel)
    {
        newSettingsWindow.Close();
    }
}

回答5:

You can also close the application:

Application.Exit();

It will end the processes.

回答6:

send the WindowSettings as the parameter of the constructor of the DialogSettingsCancel and then on the button1_Click when yes is pressed call the close method of both of them.

public class DialogSettingsCancel
{
    WindowSettings parent;

    public DialogSettingsCancel(WindowSettings settings)
    {
        this.parent = settings;        
    }

    private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        //Code to trigger when the "Yes"-button is pressed.
        this.parent.Close();
        this.Close();
    }
}

回答7:

for example, if you want to close a windows form when an action is performed there are two methods to do it

1.To close it directly

Form1 f=new Form1();
f.close(); //u can use below comment also
//this.close();

2.We can also hide form without closing it

 private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        Form1 f1 = new Form1();
        Form2 f2 = new Form2();
        int flag = 0;
        string u, p;
        u = textBox1.Text;
        p = textBox2.Text;
        if(u=="username" && p=="pasword")
        {
            flag = 1;
        }
        else
        {
          MessageBox.Show("enter correct details");
        }
        if(flag==1)
        {
            f2.Show();
            this.Hide();
        }

    }

There are different methods to open or close winform. Form.Close() is one method in closing a winform.

When 'Form.Close()' execute , all resources created in that form are destroyed. Resources means control and all its child controls (labels , buttons) , forms etc.

Some other methods to close winform
