.net - Not Retaining Changes Made To Values Of Properties In A Custom Class?
Jun 10, 2011
I created this function to remove vbCrLf from the values of properties in a Custom Class:(vTransaction)
Public Function ValidateTransaction(ByRef vTransaction)
Dim property1 As String
Dim value1 As String
For Each p As System.Reflection.PropertyInfo In vTransaction.GetType().GetProperties()
If p.CanRead Then
[Code]...
Throughout testing I can verify that vbCrLf is being replaced with a space as expected. When I re-examine vTransaction the changes have not been retained and the vbCrlf's are still there. What do I need to do to retain the changes being made to values in vTransaction.

I'm moving my first steps in the VB.NET world (I come from VB6) and I'm stuck with the creation of a particular class.
Let's say we have a bus that always has 101 places. I'm trying to create a class containing the map of the bus, along with methods to graphically represent it.
My "Bus" class will have a couple of properties ("BusColor", "BusModel") related to the whole bus. Then it should have a property called "Places" whose type is a custom class thet represents every single place, along with, for example, the passenger name or the place number. This property should of course be an array.
This is my code so far (simplified):
Public Class BusMap
Private Const MAX_PLACES As Integer = 101
Private _BusModel As String = ""
[Code]....
but I wonder if there is a more standard way of doing this.
My second question is: how can I modify my class to be able to iterate its Places property with the "for each" statement? A quick search on the web showed up that I should implement the IEnumerable interface, but I'm still not enough confident with the concept of Interfaces.

I need a simple class with only one Public property and no Public methods (the final Class will be more complex, but for testing this is all I need). The Property is "Item" and takes a "String" as a parameter. It returns a "String" based on the parameter. I then want be able to add instances of this object to a List or Array, and then Bind it to a Repeater or a ListView......most importantly, I want to be able to then refer to values in my simple Class via the Eval function:
<%# Eval("SomeIDString**") %>**.
I can't Bind at all unless I declare the Item property as the Default property...why?
When I use "Eval", I get an error in the lines of "[some property] does not exists". indeed it doesn't, because everything is accessed via the Item property. it then does works if I replace "Eval" with "Container.DataItem". Is there a way to use Eval instead of Container.DataItem? I would rather not have my class inherit any other classes because I want to keep it clean from supurfulous properties and/or methods.
Are there interfaces I need to implement? Also, the reason I want to use Eval, is that as much as possible, I want to make the use of this Class simple, so the coder doesn't need to worry about special cases. I just want it to work, much like the DataTable Class, but with a much simpler, lighter-weight implementation.

So I made a Listbox, and also a custom class called "Enemies". I used a Bindingsource to Bind "Enemies" to the Listbox. "Enemies has three properties which are: "Name as String, Health as String, and Dead as Boolean".The thing I need is when I add a Enemy to the listbox, I want the BackColor of the item to either be Red or Green, depending on if the Item.Dead property is false or true.

Let's say I have a custom class called CustomItem that holds the Name and 'SomeProperty' properties:[code]Now, on the click of a Button, I want to select the CustomItem whose SomeProperty is equal to "Property 4". Of course, this is just "Item 4", but the names and properties are not that correlated in the real application than they are in this example.I have spent ages a long time ago figuring out how to do this. I could not directly set the SelectedItem, because I first need to get the CustomItem that actually matches my condition (SomeProperty = "Property 4"). My solution was to use a loop, looping through each item in the ListBox, and setting the SelectedItem when the right property has been found.[code]Now, is this the correct way to approach this problem? Is the LINQ query correct, or can it be done easier, without the casting? Also, is the LINQ query faster than the For loop, especially for a large amount of items? I expect it to be, but I don't know how to test this.

What I've done is create a User Control Library (Project) and I've added a single User Control to that project. The control contains a single FlowLayoutPanel, and I created a Property on the control itself to pass the FlowDirection from the Control to its FlowLayoutPanel child.
Build, reference, component appears in the Toolbox and everything works fine, but the property on the control does not appear in the Properties window when I go to edit it at design time.

I am using a class to track if a user cleared their personal information found within some text boxes on a form. In the button click event to clear the text boxes I am creating a new object to the class and assigning true to one property value. Sounds simple until I try and submit the form with a different button, and create a another object reference that I use in an IF statement to check the property value for true. Every time the statement fails because the value being returned from the getter in my class is false.

I am learning vb.net and I am having trouble wrapping my head around the following... I can create several properties of a custom class and get/set values or I can create a method to set them all at once. If each property is going to allow read and write should I just make a method to assign values all at once? I assume that I am missing a very important piece here. Example: I can create 2 properties:

I have a datalist control that is not retaining it values during postback when the control causing the postback is outside of the update panel that the Datalist resides in. I have verified that viewstate is on for that usercontrol as well as all its parent controls. My basic situation is that I have a Datalist that contains a user control on a page. When the user selects several rows in a grid and presses a button, a datatable is filled on the backend and assigned to the Datalist which has its item template set to the UserControl.
On ItemDataBound I set specific properties in the control which customize the messages on that control to the specific item. This is then popped up using the AJAX Control Toolkit Modal Popup[ Extender. When the user presses Save the whole page posts back. Data is collected from the user controls and saved to the DB and the popup disappears. The issue I am currently having is that the DataList has 0 items when the save button is pressed instead of the appropriate number. THis issue just started appearing after we upgraded from .NET 2.0 to .NET 3.5.

Throughout our program, forms are opened like this[code]...
The problem is that when forms are closed, they seem to not really be closed, only hidden - if I add some text to a textbox and close/reopen the form, the text is still there, rather than the textbox being cleared like normal. This is presumably because the form always uses the same instance.
Is there any easy way to fix this other than going through the entire program and creating a new form instance for every ShowDialog() call (there are hundreds)?

How do I effectively declare a Global Array which I can access the values of that array from any procedure? I have a Userform from which I will call various sub procedures depending on the actions performed on the useform. I have one procedure (Procedure1) where I have set up a multidimensional array and input values to it. I have another procedure (Prodedure2) where I want to access the values in the array - I DO NOT want to pass the array values directly from Procedure1 to Procedure2.

I have a DataGridView bound to a binding source. I have also, however, added an unbound column in which I plan on putting numbers calculated from the bound columns. The problem is, Any time I edit my unbound column (on any row), the value doesn't stay. If I programmatically edit the values, they never show up. If I type in the cell, then upon hitting enter or clicking outside of the cell, whatever I typed disappears.

I have the following in my main form

Public TableDetails As New List(Of TableDetailsContainer(Of TableXDetails))
Public Sub ArrangeByID()
'''STUCK HERE''''
[code].....
What I basically want to achieve is to sort TableDetails(i) items by their "ID", but I have absolutely no idea how to go about it. Could anyone please give me pointers?Also, I actually want to move the columns within TableDetails(i) around, manually. But I'm not too sure how to do that.

how to handle movement of buttons that are made in runtime. What my program does is writes the name of a button that is made in runtime, the left, and top cordinate into a textfile. When the user reopens the program it needs to load the button in the same spot. So far i have a streamreader reading the file in each line. There is a one sentence split by ",". Each of the three components are loaded into an array. how can i call the buttons it i am unsure of the name. Possible answer could include using sender, addhandler.

As a coding exercise, I would like to know if it is possible to build a bindable data structure that would have a dynamic collection of field objects, in which each field not only would have a specific data type, but also would hold the value for that field. That is, is not like a DataTable where you can have many rows, I only want to manage a single collection of values.

I'm developing a solution that I'm going to split into two different directions.I've built custom controls for the first application, and now I'm creating a new solution where I'm importing all the Forms and Modules to the new solution I'm developing by using "Add Existing Item" from the Solution ExplorerWhen doing this, most of the errors I'm receiving I'm able to correct by "Find & Replace" with the new name of the new solution. (They seem to be references to the old name of the solution, that I simply replace with the new name. Example. Global.Xname..... I now replace with Global.Yname.

My problem is when I try to run the program: No errors of syntax.
What I must do? I need to right click in solution explorer add new item->add->class and copy here this code?
After I write the code I chose from the vb menu: Build->Build Solution_name
Before writing the code I choose File->New->and selected class library then save all to save as a project.
Or class library is only a dll file that runs with a windows forms application. (that is added after i write the code for write library).

I am having Socket server, and I have two forms. One is the main form for the server and the other one is a custom made messagebox. When a request comes to the server the main form has to invoke the second form (messagebox). When the main form is open for the first time everything works fine. But when I close the main form without closing the application and open it again and request comes to the server the custom made messagebox opens but it freezes and looks like this:

This is another one of my "I think it's not possible but I need confirmation" questions.I have a base class for a bunch of child classes. Right now, this base class has a few common properties the children use, like Name. The base is an abstract class (MustInherit)Technically, this means that everytime a child class is instantiated, it lugs around, in memory, its own copy of Name. The thing is, Name is going to be a fixed value for all instances of a given child. I.e., Child1.Name will return "child_object1", and Child2.Name will return "child_object2".

I have made a class that represents people. When I create a new person, it causes an warning saying "Variable 'NewPerson' is used before it has been assigned a value. A null reference exception could result at runtime"
HOW I have tried to fix it.
I have tried adding value to many of the properties, but it still says that.
WHAT it is like.
It is almost like I have a string with a value of null.

Is it possible to save into temp data a user made class? I have a class with many structures and each structure contains variables and im trying to add to my program a way to save the data of that class object with its structures and everything is that possible? I tried manually making some sort of save but its taking too long and proving way too hard for me. Is there a way to just convert it into some general object format and save the object? Is that possible can you just save undefined objects without having to create a format manually for that object?
