[2008] Call Parent Function From DLL
Jan 12, 2011
I have a bunch of VB.NET programs that have a general purpose logging function to log events, errors, exceptions, etc. It looks like this:
Sub LogMe(Msg as string)
LstLog.items.add(now.tostring & " " & Msg)
End Sub
I wrote a few VB.NET DLLs that contain classes used my my VB.NET programs. In thoses DLL classes, I would like to also trap some events, errors, exceptions, etc. But I want them to be logged using my main LogMe function. Here is some pseudo-code of what I was looking for:
' Main program code
imports MyLib
' Initialize program
[Code]...
I assume I will need to define Delegates to save my LogMe fonction pointer

I have a class inhert ToolStripButton. it builds a new toolstrip button. the button will be added to the toolstrip which is on main form.
I will need call function in the main form. what's the right way to do this?
now, I pass the main form when create the class. but I guess the right way is to raise the event in main form.
but, how about the properties in main form?
if I raise the event, will it run the event first, then go to the next line of the class? or, just raise event, then go to the next line in the class immediately?

This is a challenging one that got me stumped while I was coding today. Suppose I am running the Sub Test1() and Test2() and would like to print out the value of the Shadows method of the instance of the object I am passing in to TestCall() (see below - it is clearer) using the following restrictions:
Can't change the contents of Class A, B, and C
Can't change Sub Test1() and Sub Test2()
TestCall() can't have an if, select case etc. statement that tries to figure out the type

We know that the DLL function can be called from our mainprogram and return value. I would like to know, when we run DLL function, can we call a sub in our mainprogram (from DLL function) and return a value to DLL fucntion.

I need to know the proper way, or maybe I should say, the different ways to call another form from a parent or preceding form. I am currently using ex: formname.showdialog() to call my next form, but I am uncertain if I should be using that in every situation. [code] Whats the difference between these different methods? (ex: .showdialog() , .show() )I tried both of these to open a temporary form to retrieve a persons name from a database, so as the users progresses through my training program they can keep track of their scores.But, I also call other forms as I branch through my program, from the main page, to a secondary page, to a testing page, to a results page and then back to the secondary page

I have a function called DieRoll. In the function I have the following setup.
Dim objRandom as New Random
Dim intRoll as Integer
intRoll = objRandom.Next(1,7)
Return intRoll
Everything works as expected as far as generating a random number (1 - 6) is concerned, except for one problem. If I have a series of calls to the function one after another, the numbers come up the same. Is there a way to make sure that each call to the function is much more random?

I'm trying to undersatnd the syntax of calling a funciton and it seem confusing when I'm using a web service in ASP.net. Maybe this question should be in an ASP forum, but it is a VB question. This simple web service allows you to type in your name and it response with an alert box with you name.
My question is, How can you call a function with 2 arguments when the function is only defined for one. I understand that the second argument is actually a method that handling the respons, but how can you interchange function arguments for methods and how do you know that there are methods for
Here's my call:
<script type="text/javascript">
function HelloWorld()
{
var yourName = $get('txtYourName').value;

I want to create an ExpressionTree where a Func(of Vector, Vector, Vector, Vector, Double, Double, Vektor) should be called. So I use
Expression.Call(Forces(0).Function.Method, {Vec1, Vec2, Vec3, Vec4, Double1, Double2})(Vec1-4, Double1-2 are declared as ParameterExpression and Forces(0).Function as Func(of Vector, Vector, Vector, Vector, Double, Double, Vector). But I get an AgrumentException, because Forces(0).Function.Method has seven Arguments. (System.Runtime.CompilerServices.Closure as seventh argument at Index 0).

I am working to make a function that will update the back color of a text box based on multiple variables values. I can write the code to do the calculation, but I am not sure how to make the function realize which text box to update (as I will have about 30 different boxes). Below is the code that I have for each box so far, but I will have quite a few more, and would rather use a function to reduce the amount of code, and also make it cleaner as well.
If sngPreviousPrimaryPropertyTotal >= sngPrimaryPropertyTotalCost Then
txtPreviousPrimaryPropertyTotal.BackColor = ColorProgramLightGreen
Else
txtPreviousPrimaryPropertyTotal.BackColor = ColorProgramLightRed
End If
[Code] .....
Or is there a way that I can tell the function that it's updating the text box that call the function in the first place? Say if txtBox1 has updated text and calls the function, then the function 'knows' to update txtBox1, but will update txtBox2 when it's called by txtBox2.

What I am trying to achieve is if there is an error in cell 1 of the current row it returns to that cell. The code below tries to achieve that, but I get an error message thus:Operation is not valid because it results in a reentrant call to the SetCurrentCellAddressCore function.
Private Sub RoomPricingDGV_CellEnter(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.DataGridViewCellEventArgs) Handles RoomPricingDGV.CellEnter
If e.ColumnIndex = 2 And cellerror = True Then

I am trying to create a project in VB 2010 like I have in VB6. In VB6 I have a parent form which opens a child form. The child form displays calls (customers) on a spread sheet control that are on hold. The user selects the call in the child form, it calls a sub in the parent form passing a record number to identify the customer. The parent form then "pulls" up the call and and connects the user to the caller with all of the customers information.So, I haven't done this in VB NET and I have searched to see if this would be done the same way in .NET as it was in VB6, but I haven't found much decisive information. Is a parent/child form the way to do this?

How can I call a function from inside another function and suspend the calling function until the called function is finished? I hope I can get some replies because I don't know how to ask the question and make sense:).
Anyway what I am trying to do in steps:
1. The user clicks button1 which triggers the click event.
2. From the click event I call a function
3. I then pop-up a form, that has instructions for the user to read.
4. After the user has read the form he will click the "Done" button and return to the calling function.
The problem is the the calling function continues to execute. I want to stop execution of the calling function until the users clicks the "Done" button on the instruction pop=up. I know I can use a msgbox but the instructions can be lengthly and does not look good in a msgbox.
I have tried the Call method with return in the "Done" button click but I can make that work. I also tried a goto statement but I can get that to work either. In the call statement I said call frmInstruction.show() and it got there but as I said the calling function continued to execute.

ive two custom controls, which are used to draw and edit etc...(like paint but customized....) i want to save their images with a single click....So im using the Getimageofcontrol function to do it....its code is below:::
Public Function GetImageOfControl(ByVal c As Control) As Image
Dim rc As New Rectangle(c.PointToScreen(c.Location), c.Size)
Dim i As Image = New Bitmap(rc.Width, rc.Height)[code].....

I have a function where I am performing a lot number of database operations inside a Sub. The operation when called directly like:ExecProcess()
takes about 11 seconds to run.However, if I create a Delegate, and call the sub using BeginInvoke(), the very same process takes over 40 seconds to execute.Here's the threaded code:
Protected del As ProcessDelegate
Protected Delegate Sub ProcessDelegate()
del = New ProcessDelegate(AddressOf SELocal.ExecJob)
Dim cb As New AsyncCallback(AddressOf Me.ExecJobComplete)
del.BeginInvoke(cb, del)
Anyone know what may cause a function to take longer inside a new thread, rather than calling directly?

Some programs implement command parameters, Like my favourite computer game - Crysis - has them and windows media player has them.But how could i implement them in VB.NET..I want to have a component of my program built as a seperate exe - so it can be an Optional component.But of course the seperate exe, on load, needs data passing to it.So i need something like Process.start("Componentname.exe", "/StartDL <Suchandsuchastring>)/StartDL will need to call a function, and the string that it uses will be given to the function to initiate a download?

I am attempting to inherit an ASP.NET RegularExpressionValidator and add some functionality to it. I inherited the control and added my custom properties. However, I would also like the client-side functionality to call a different JavaScript function.
In order to do that, I will need to supress what is happening in the AddAttributesToRender method because the name of the function is hard-coded there. Here is what comes up in Reflector for the AddAttributesToRender function in RegularExpressionValidator:

Note: I tried to add the expando property before the parent class does to see if the code would check for its existence and skip it, but that just causes an exception.

I have two forms. Form A and Form B. Form A has a datagrid that is populated from a SQL Database Table query. When a button is pressed Form B is launched that allows you to add a record to the database table.

I have created a new Class Library in visual basic and called it 'TestDLL'. I have a TestDLL.vb file where I put in this code
Class TestDLL
Function ReturnHello() As String
Return "Hello"
End Function
End Class
Then I clicked on the build tab and built the solution. I then copied the DLL 'TestDLL.dll' to C:TestDLL.dll
I am trying to use that DLL in a console application. I have tried this code but I get an error: System.EntryPointNotFoundException was unhandled Message=Unable to find an entry point named 'ReturnHello' in DLL 'C:TestDLL.dll'.
Declare Function ReturnHello Lib "C:TestDLL.dll" () As String I have added TestDLL.dll to the references for the console application and got that to work, however my goal is to load and unload different .dll files without restarting the application. I have a lot more code besides this, but I'm just trying to find out what commands I could use for just calling functions from DLL files.
There was something I was reading about assemblies, but all I get that to do is list the classes in my dll file. I will already know all the names and locations of the .dll files, and also the class and functions that they contain, because I will be building all of them. how I can get a simple function return in my console application.
