.net - Adding An Overloaded Constructor To A WinForm?
Oct 14, 2010
I have created a dialog as a winform and am calling that winform like this:
Dim dlgEditChangeOrder As New dgEditChangeOrder
Dim dlgResult As DialogResult
dlgResult = dlgEditChangeOrder.ShowDialog
pretty simple. I want to be able to set the visiblility of a control on the win form when the win form is called. I would like to do this as a constructor so I could write the following. Dim dlgEditChangeOrder As New dgEditChangeOrder(visibleIsTrue)
Can someone give me the contructor code to make this happen? The reason I am concerned is I dunno if its legal to do this inside a winform since the winform is loaded bby the precreated IntializeComponent() function

I have an abstract class in vb.net with two subclasses. In the abstract class I have a constuctor that looks like this:[code]I would like to create a second constructor that doesn't take any arguments and just initializes the args to default values.[code]When I attempt to create a new subclass using the second constructor the compiler complains that I'm missing two args to the constructor.Is there a reason I can't overload the constructor in the abstract class?

User name. - stringApplication mode - Boolean (user read write privileges)List on string.
Where do I receive this arguments in the new method ?

I have a userControl11 (either in winform or wpf) which has a ValueChanged custom event. If I put it in client form and in form_load set its value to 100, it will trigger the ValueChanged event. But if I set this value inside the constructor of UserControl1 the custom event won't trigger. How can I force it to do so ?whatever the technical reason, functionally it does make sense. If the object is initializing its value from some sources unknown to the client form and the client form has a textbox bound to this usercontrol value, it is sure convenient that it could refresh its textbox at any time including when the form loads just using one single event handler. Without this the client form has to create another initializer for this bound textbox at form load.
Below the source code of my trials in winform:
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.ComponentModel;
using System.Data;

I've added a windows media player component to a windows form. Each time a richtextbox updates, I have the component play a sound using the code:
wmp.URL = "C:UsersJesseDesktopelectronicblip06.wav"
This works because autostart is enabled. My question is, how do I use the "correct" code to just play the wav file instead of loading it each time in order to increase performance. i.e., what is the play command.

I have an abstract class which requires a delegate to function. I pass the delegate into the constructor. Now that I have a non default constructor I need to call the abstract class's constructors from the concrete class which means that I need to use MyBase.New(...). I have included a quick example below.
Public MustInherit Class BaseClass
Public Delegate Sub WorkMethod()
Private _Work As WorkMethod
[code]....
I have tried to do this but I keep getting the following error: "Implicit reference to object under construction is not valid when calling another constructor".Can I not do what I am trying to do above? I initially had the delegate setup in its own setter method. But then I am creating a deceptive API because it does require a point to a method to work properly.

what's the rationale behind this limitation: Constructor call is valid only as the first statement in an instance constructor i want to pass an argument to my constructor which validates this argument and calls mybase.new according to this argument but it doesn't let me
example:
Public Class prob
Inherits System.ApplicationException
Public Sub New(ByVal problem As String, ByRef inner_exception As Exception)

So Google's not a good choice for looking up examples for overloaded operators like "And" or "Or", because it tries to parse them as operators to the search query itself. MSDN also provides no examples of how to implement an overloaded And operator, so I'm not certain how to properly overload it for my project.Does anyone have an example of "And" at minimum? "Or" or "Xor" (or any others) would be a bonus. I'm not certain if I need to overload these operators in my objects just yet, as I'm still building them out and haven't planned beyond just yet. But having examples around that might get indexed by Google will probably help save the sanity of a lot of people...

In this project I am making a grade calculator; I am modifying an existing code I have to have the following characteristics: I need to modify the DetermineGrade method so that it accepts the maximum number of points that can be earned on both tests (currently, the max number of points is 200: 100 points per test). For an A grade, the student must earn at least 90% of the total number of points. For a B, the student must earn at least 80%. For a C, at least 70%. For a D, at least 60%. If they earn less than 60% of the total points, then grade is F. Here is the exisint code I have for the DetermineGrade method specifically:
Public Sub DetermineGrade()
Dim intTotal As Integer
intTotal = _intScore1 + _intScore2

I have some VB6 code that I am converting to VB.net and came across this section
Declare Function TmSendByLen Lib "tmctl.dll" Alias "TmSendByLength"(ByVal id As Integer, ByRef msg As Any, ByVal blen As Integer) As Integer
'snip'
[code]....
I have not come across the Alias term before but I can guess what it does. What I am unsure of is the reasoning behind overloading the alias. If that is what is happening.I need to create overloads for the TmSendByLen function as the 'As Any' is not supported in VB.net so I am not sure if I should just remove the alias or if I should leave it in place.

I tend to loath repetition in code, so when I come across a problem where the only different is types I tend to use generics. Coming from a C++ background I find vb.net's version to be rather frustrating, I know C++ has template specialization and I guess vb.net does notso what I have is a set of routines that do the exact same code regardless of type being passed.something like this
Public Sub decision(Of T)(ByVal a As T, ByVal b As Integer)
If b > 10 then
gt(a)

In my previous application using Linq2SQL I was able to overload constructors with parameters by doing this:
Namespace CoreDb
Partial Public Class Accomplishment
Public Sub New(ByVal accomplishmentTypeID As Object, ByVal description As String, ByVal title As String, ByVal applicableDate As DateTime, ByVal lastUpdatedBy As String)
[code]....
Basically using a partial class off the object, sharing the namespace of the .dbml file and calling the default constructor and then doing additional stuff. So then in my code I could do something like:
Dim accomplishment As New Accomplishment(id, description, title, applicableDate, lastUpdatedBy)
This seems to no longer work in Entity Framework as there is no default constructor to call.Does this no longer work? And if so what is a good alternative to implementing something like this?

Not sure if this question belongs here or the Interop forum, but here is the situation. I have a vb.net app that was upgraded from vb6. It has an overloaded Login method. A simple method with two string parameters for name/password calls the primary login method with numerous optional parameters. The simple method is for compatibility with C# because, until Visual Studio 2010, optional parameters were not supported.The C# intellisense finds the overload and compiles ok... but throws an error at startup stating that it cannot find the Login method. This makes no sense and appears to be a problem with vb. (I am using .net 4 for both vb.net and the c# test harness.)ILDASM shows the following:
Public Function Login(ByVal LoginName As String, ByVal Password As String, ByVal Alias_Renamed As String, Optional ByVal LoginFrom As String = "", Optional ByVal ClientIPAddress As String = "", Optional ByVal ServerIPAddress As String = "", Optional

I am rewriting a C# class in VB. The C# class has a static constructor in it:
static Class()
{
...
}
which, through the Call Stack, I found is called by the main window's InitializeComponent() method.Everywhere I've looked has told me that the corresponding static constructor in VB is just:Shared Sub New()
but this method is never invoked. Am I creating my VB static constructor right? Is it likely something else that has nothing to do with my static constructor?

A former co-worker wrote a class in C# that was to be used as an attribute. I'm having to convert his work to VB (yeah, it's pointless and way more work than necessary, but management thinks it's a good idea). Unfortunately I'm having an issue because one of the main properties of the class is an ArrayList which is set with a ParamArray in the constructor. The class looks like this (note I've tried to abstract out the problem, so this is a simplified version of the class only)
<AttributeUsage(AttributeTargets.Field Or AttributeTargets.[Property])> _
Public Class LabelAttribute
Inherits Attribute
Public Sub New()
[CODE]........
In the first one, there is just the single label being added. No Problem. In the second one there are 2 different labels being added. Again, no problem. The third one, however, is a problem because it's assuming that the "Description", which is supposed to be the description is instead being interpreted as another label.
This wasn't a problem in C# because it could be set as follows:
[CODE].................
Of course this doesn't work in VB because optional parameters aren't referred to by name as they are in C#. As a stopgap I've changed the constructor to allow only a single label like this
CODE]..................
But that undermines some of what this class is meant to do. Does anyone know how, or even if I can get the same basic functionality to work in VB?
Think there must be a way to make the existing design work. Imagine this class was built into a library that I could not modify. Would I be forever forbidden from setting Description because of this design?
