Hi!
I found a Bug in User Interface Process Application Block
(http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dnbda/html
/uip.asp).
If you add a control that has a "MessageBox.Show" in its constructor to a
child modal form that inherits from WinFormView, the current view and
controller get out of sync.
You can seet if you add the following code to the WinFormViewManager:

   public bool IsRequestCurrentView( IView view, string stateViewName )
        {
            // Was Not implemented. Microsoft thinks that In a winform
applications isnīt necesary
   // but it is if some control calls MessageBox in its constructor in a
chid modal view...
   ViewSettings viewSettings =
UIPConfiguration.Config.GetViewSettingsFromName(stateViewName);
   if( viewSettings == null )
    throw new UIPException( Resource.ResourceManager.FormatMessage(
"RES_ExceptionViewConfigNotFound", stateViewName ) );

   string stateViewType = viewSettings.Type;
   System.Windows.Forms.Form form = (System.Windows.Forms.Form)view;
   string viewType=form.GetType().FullName;
   Debug.Assert(stateViewType.Equals( viewType ),stateViewType+" ==
"+viewType);
   return true;
        }

The assert fails!! this shouldn't happen! Any ideas in how to fix this?
thanks
bye
