.net - Sort Generic List Based Upon A Different List?
Oct 29, 2010
What would be the fastest way to sort a list that contains a list of objects, based upon another list? An example follows:Say I have multiple lists of employees. Each individual list has a common property value, say "Department". So I have a list of employees, in one list they all have the department string value of "Sales". In another list all the objects have a department value of "Finance". These lists of employees are then contained in a list which holds them all.
I have a second list, which should drives the sort order of the employee lists. The second list simply contains a list of strings like, "Finance", "Sales", "IT" and so on. I'd like my lists of customers to be sorted in the order of "Finance", "Sales", etc.I'm using VB.NET in .NET 2.0

We have a generic List(Of Product) that must be sorted on two or more properties of the Product class.
The product class has the properties "Popular" numeric (asc), "Clicked" numeric (desc), "Name" string (asc). In order of naming the properties we want the list to sort.
How can it be sort with an lamba statement? If have found to sort the list based on one property.

I've created and populated a generic list of strings like this:
Dim MyList As New List(Of String)
MyList.Add("Beta")
MyList.Add("Echo")
[code]....
Now I want to order it.

I made an object that has several properties one of which is an integer.
I put all the objects into a list, and I wish to sort that list by the integer property, with the object with the highest property at item 0, with the object with the lowest property at the highest item # ( count -1).
I made the list of that item, as in
Dim GameList as new list(of clsGame)
And I wish to do something like the following
GameList.Score.Sort()
What is the syntax to do that? I looked up the MSDN and didn't really understand what it was trying to say

I'm looping all the properties in an object via reflection:
For Each p As PropertyInfo In values.[GetType]().GetProperties()
If p.CanRead Then
'Do stuff
End If
Next
how to determine whether the property in question is a generic List(Of T)? If it is I need to loop the list itself.
I've experimented with GetType and TypeOf but have not managed to get anything working.
To clarify, I want to keep this generic. I do not want to specify the type of T, I need to loop the list items and call the ToString method on each item. T could be one of a number of different types (application specific reference types). Is it possible to do this without specifying types?

it seems always at this time I cant figure out how to do something maybe it has something to do with lunchtime.
Im having trouble using a method that is defined by an outside company
This is a link to their integration guide:
[URL]
This is their documentation for the class Im trying to use
OrderQueryWebService Class
This class is for SID in particular and is made for use with the notification methods. This is for the Order Query Web Service specifically, allowing clients to return the status of transactions for their merchant, whenever they want to.
Methods
/ <summary>
/ Pass through the variables required and receive a list of Transaction
objects showing transaction status
[Code].....
The MerchantCode, the MerchantUsername, the MerchantPassword are all good the List is a custom type called SetComHash.Transaction
Everytime I try adding a string to the list such as the transactionNumber and some other values it gives me a type error:
"Value of type string cannot be converted to 'SetcomHash.Transaction'

I'm having a bit of a 'brain doner' moment here
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.

Suppose you have list 1 (ilist1) and list 2 (ilist2) both lists have 3 items.
At index 0 item1 which has text "-- Select --"
At index 1 item2 which has text "Yes"
At index 2 item3 which has text "No"
Both lists have identical items. I would like to know if it is possible to have the selection of list one be "Yes" and the selection of list two be "No" and vice versa using SelectedIndexChanged or something of the sort.
For example:
ilist1 = --Select--
ilist2 = --Select--

I have a List(Of T) storing a list of Custom classes called Advertisement. Each advertisement contains 3 properties, Year, Make and Model. I need to sort the list By Year, then by Make and then by Model. I have a property in the Advertisement class called Vehicle which returns a formatted string with the Year Make Model like 2007 Toyota Tacoma and ive been sorting on that but its not working how I thought it would. Basically I want to sort the list by Year (decending; lowest year first) then sort by the Make and Model (in alphabetical order) Is that even possible? Here is the code ive been using.

Dim x = GetType(List(Of )) 'valid statement
Dim list As New List(Of String)
Now I want to see if list is a List(Of T) variable: Dim isList = TypeOf list Is List(Of ) On the last line I get a compile error: "Type Expected". Is there any cheap-performance TypeOf operator alternative for generics?

I have a List myList of MyObjects. Is it possible to check if myList contains a particular myObject based on a property of myObject in VB.NET? In C#, you'd something similar to this right:
myList.Exists(myObject => myObject.property1 == 3)

I am trying to create a list of a generic type in vb.net 2.0 framework.
This is the generic type definition:
Public Class GenericParamMap(Of T)
Public Sub New(ByVal pParamName As String, ByVal pPropValue As T)
mParamName = pParamName
[Code]....
The compiler does not allow a "T" in the method's parameter because it's not defined, but I'm not sure how or where to define it. I thought it was okay to have a generic method definition.

I want my loop to loop until it reaches the last string in my generic list. I know I could simply insert the last index of the list as an integer but I want to be able to use this if my list grows too. How could I achieve this?

I have been reading extensively about searching generic lists in VB.NET with the usage of delegates.However, I still cannot seem to grasp how to achieve what I want to, which I believe is frustratingly simple! I have a list populated with instances of an object with three parameters (fields/ variables).When I receive a new object to add to the list I want to search the list for the "layer" field.If the field matches then I will replace that row (object) in the list with the new object, if no match is found then I will add it to the list.

I'm using VB.NET on Framework 2.0. I'm looking to quickly group a Generic List<> by two properties. For the sake of this example lets say I have a List of an Order type with properties of CustomerId, ProductId, and ProductCount. How would I get the average of ProductCounts grouped by CustomerId and ProductId in VB.NET ?Unfortunatly I cannot do this at DB level (which would have been easy). Also I cannot use LINQ or Lambada as Im on Framewwork 2.0. So I need to do this at application level in VB.net. The list is returned to me sorted by CustomerId and ProductId so I guess with a few loop sI should be able to create a average value for but there must be a cleaner way to do this?

I have the follow code in my program where I hit a SQLCe database to append the results into a list. That part works, but instead of exiting the function 'QueryDB' it goes to the else statement and runs the function again, which will return a null value. I designed it this way becuase I wanted to check to make sure the database is open before I try to execute the SQL statement, and if it's not open, call the method to open it and run through the function again.

I am trying to learn some VB.NET for my coo-op that starts next week, and for that reason i took my portfolio web site that is on C# and just started to converting it to VB.NET to get familiar with the syntax.
I am sure my problem is simple however i have a hard time solving it. I am trying to grab data with the linq query and then return it as list to bind to the Repeater.I have the following function:
[Code]...
And it would work fine. However if I try to use ToList() in VB.NET i am getting error that it cannot convert it from ling to sql List to the generic list. How do i do this convertion in VB.NET ? or maybe there is another way ?
I am decent when it comes to C# however somewhat lost with the VB.NET syntax.

I have an existing application that uses Active Record for its data retrieval. It's in VB.NET (first time I'm doing VB.NET; I usually work in C#). And I'm building a method to return a List(Of T) of an object. The current pattern uses a SQLDataAdapter to populate a datatable. I COULD add the record to the List(Of T) as I fill the datatable, but there HAS to be a better way to do this.
