Question

I have created an editor for a property.
I would however like to pass some arguments to the constructor of the editor, but I am unsure as to how to do this.

FOO _foo = new foo();
[Editor(typeof(MyEditor), typeof(UITypeEditor))]
public object foo 
 {
 get { return _foo; }
 set {_foo = value;}
 }

~

class MyEditor: UITypeEditor
{
  public override object EditValue(System.ComponentModel.ITypeDescriptorContext context, System.IServiceProvider provider, object value)
  {
    //some other code
    return obj;
  }
}

Answer 1

of course you can add another (parametrized) constructor to your myEditor class, something like this:

public class MyEditor: UITypeEditor
{
  // new parametrized constructor
  public MyEditor(string parameterOne, int parameterTwo...)
  {
    // here your code
  }

  ...
  ...
}

the problem is that you should also be in control of who calls that constructor because only then you can decide which constructor to use and you can specify/assign a value to the parameters.
