Will the elements in myList always be visited in the same order with a For Each loop (assuming I don't alter the list)?
Dim myList As New List(Of MyElement)
....
For Each myElem As MyElement In myList

View 4 RepliesThis is probably a really basic question - but I have a list of items (custom objects) being passed from one winform (.net 3.5) to another. I want to create a local list to store changes that only get persisted if the user clicks save. Currently if the user clicks cancel - the changes are still applied in the first form because I assume the objects are reference type.I have the save working as it calls a service layer to do the save and then refreshes the other form - but not the cancel.

I have a list of Objects. Each of these Objects contains a list of other Objects (pseudo code) :-
Private Structure Object1
dim Name as string
dim ListOfObject2 as List(Of Object2)
[Code]....
I need to sort the list of Object1 by the Value in Object2. I have a comparison class which sorts Object2 by its Value nicely.
Assume I have an array myArray1 = { A, B, C, D, E, F, ., T}I have another that contains a subset of the elements of myArray1 but where the order may vary

I got a list of objects. Each object has a property called Z (integer).There will come a point during run-time I will want to re-arrange such objects in my list depending on their Z property. The objects with lower Z go first in the list, and the ones with higher will go last.I have thought of a couple things, like making a new List, then loop through each object in the original list as many times as the amount of objects such list has (so if it has 10 objects, I would loop 100 times), and each iteration will check the Z values. When a cycle is done (for every 10 iterations), I will remove the object with the lowest Z number in cycle and add it to the new List. And so on until the 100 iterations are done.

Is there a way to do it without looping through each bar as I may have 2000 plus bars for each stock and may have 2000+ plus stocks to look at. It can be done by looping but it is slow.
I would like a function generate all of the k-combinations of elements from a List of n elements. Note that I am looking for combinations, not permutations, and that we need a solution for varying k (i.e., hard-coding the loops is a no-no).
I am looking for a solution that is a) elegant, and b) can be coded in VB10/.Net 4.0.
This means a) solutions requiring LINQ are ok, b) those using the C# "yield" command are not.
The order of the combinations is not important (i.e., lexicographical, Gray-code, what-have-you) and elegance is favored over performance, if the two are in conflict.
(The OCaml and C# solutions here would be perfect, if they could be coded in VB10.)
I am creating a dynamic clone method to be used in my custom classes. I want the clone function to be completely generic, so I do not have to make any changes when I add new properties to the class. I am having an issue with regards to making a deep copy a property that is a List. sample code that will enable me to identify with reflection that a property of my class is a List, and then more importantly the code to loop through the the List elements and copy of each of them. I have been able to identify a property as a List by using the NameSpace of the property type, but I'm not a big fan of that method. Either way, I have yet been able to dynamically loop and deep copy the elements of the property that's a List using reflection.
View 2 RepliesI'm making a bot to auto-reply to my PMs on a website, and I'd like to get all of the HTML elements with a class name 'InboxRow'. I can get the HTML element one at time, but the problem is that these will be dynamic, so the id and amt. of them will always change, so I want to put them in an array, where I can call each one up and perform the rest of my code for it. I just can't seem to be able to figure out how to find all the HTML elements with the class name and put them in an array, and I can't seem to find any tutorials online
View 4 RepliesIs there a succint way in vb.net to create an array or similar of each of the properties in a list?

I have a user defined structure in a list that I am trying to change the value for in an individual element within the list of structures. Accessing the element is not a problem. However, the compiler complains

Public Structure Person

I need to set up a list consisting of arrays of two elements. Simple, right?
Like: (code snippet):
Dim strDataPoint(1) As String '2-element array
Dim lBiasCurve As New List(Of strDataPoint) 'list of 2-element arrays
Dim lPwrCurve As New List(Of strDataPoint) 'another list of 2-element arrays
But this gives me an error msg on 2nd and 3rd line: type strDataPoint is not defined....
I'm trying to copy the elements from a List(Of Frequency) where Frequency is a custom class I have made. Everything in the other places seems alright but the problem seems to be with the copying, where it still references the original table, so changing the values of one changes the original. I've tried the List.CopyTo() method and tried converting to and array with List.ToArray and then using Array.Copy but it seems they always change the original. I've also tried a for loop and create and New instance of the classes but that doesn't work either. What I'm using it for is to pass the List(Of Frequency) to a new Task to do multitasking(), if anyone can think of a better method to pass a List(Of Frequency), or an array to to a task and have it not change the original.

Unfortunately, the only way I can get scroll bars to work is if I set a specific height of the listbox/rich text box (which does not work because I want it to automatically resize to the height of the grid that it is contained within, which is generally the height of the window (auto).
