How to delete object from combobox?
c#, combobox, winforms
Solution
comboBox2.Items.Remove(comboBox2.SelectedValue); will only remove from the combobox, not from the datasource bound to the combobox. You may remove it from the datasource and re-bind the datasource.
Problem
I have a combobox with objects of `Foo` type, here is the `Foo` class: ``` public class Foo { public string name { get; set; } public string path { get; set; } } ``` The `Foo.name` is the displayed text in the combobox and `Foo.path` is the value of the selected option. I want to delete an option from the combobox after some operation I made. I've tried these ways: 1 ``` comboBox2.Items.Remove(@comboBox2.Text); ``` 2 ``` comboBox2.Items.Remove(@comboBox2.SelectedValue.ToString()); ``` 3 ``` Foo ToDelete = new Foo(); ToDelete.name = @comboBox2.Text; ToDelete.path = @comboBox2.SelectedValue.ToString(); comboBox2.Items.Remove(ToDelete); ``` Nothing works for me. : / How to do this? UPDATE This is how I'm initializing my combobox: ``` string[] filePaths = Directory.GetFiles(sites.paths[comboBox1.SelectedIndex]); List<Foo> combo2data = new List<Foo>(); foreach (string s in filePaths) { Foo fileInsert = new Foo(); fileInsert.path = s; fileInsert.name = Path.GetFileName(s); combo2data.Add(fileInsert); } comboBox2.DataSource = combo2data; comboBox2.ValueMember = "path"; comboBox2.DisplayMember = "name"; ```
