How can I sort an ArrayList of custom objects by public member? Example,If I have a list of article objects, and I'd like to sort the list by the rating member after I've filled the ArrayList
Public Class Article Public bulletin As String Public rating As Integer[code].....
Now I'd like to sort uniqueArticles by rating and print articles by rating order.How do I do perform that sort?
I need two seperate lists, which every item is Integer, String, Bitmap - and one which every item is Integer, String String. However I don't know how to do this, or even where to look - I've googled for custom objects and custom object lists. What I'm trying to do is this.Custom Object1 is Integer, String, Bitmap Custom Object2 is Integer, String, String
In one thread I'll be adding items to List1(Of Object1), and processing them, and adding the results to List2(Of Object2), however I need to be able from other threads to look at the list and say only give me the items where Integer = (my thread ID), is this possible? Any help, or even links to information that would be relevant to this request would be helpful?
I use serializer classes for storing data and each class can hold an array of objects for the same class which is a key feature of the class. I declare this array as so:
myClassObjects(1000) as myClass
My question is- can I declare the array as an arraylist so I can sort and count objects in the array(list) quicker and easier and are there any drawbacks to taking this approach?
1. how do you edit objects in an ArrayList? 2. the code below works ok but is it ok to obtain a reference to an object from an ArrayList and then edit the object?
Public Class Form1 Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load
I have an ArrayList that is populated with Objects. These Objects raise events at certain times. How can I capture these events from the ArrayList? i.e. I want something like this: Public Sub MyRaisedEvent(ByVal obj as MyObject) Handles MyArrayList.MyEvent End Sub
when i do a count it display a list of 25 items in the folderlist.Now i have a main class when i tried to use the following method
Dim MainClass as New ClassB
Console.writeline(MainClass.FolderList.count()) the value reflects as 0 items meaning is empty.i need to retrieve the arraylist from Class B using the MainClass to retrieve those items inside the arraylist.
I'm completely new to VB.NET and this is likely a few steps over my head, but have managed to get myself this far with just Google.I'm reading an XML file and creating an arraylist of classes for the values in there, as seen:
Public Class yresults 'Dim xdate As XmlNodeList = xDoc.GetElementsByTagName("Date") 'Dim link As XmlNodeList = xDoc.GetElementsByTagName("Link")
I have a group of objects stored in an arraylist. These custom type objects have a number of properties from their underlying class . I want to use one of the properties to sort the array. I cannot determine which Array.Sort method to use.
I want to sort based on an integer property. Virtually every example I can find involves sorting strings.
So, assume the Objects have the following properties.
Obj.name as string Obj.ID as integer Obj.Alive as boolean
The objects are kept in an arraylist called FriendsOfMine.
I want to be able to order the list by Obj.ID, both ascending and descending in value.
I have a class called Tree, it has an arraylist called alTreeNodes. alTreeNodes is an arraylist of TreeNode class. Since I am using ISerializable Interface, I have to provide a specific constructor. I know how to write it for string parameters such as name_value, but how should i do with arraylist of object then? See "???" in the code blog before.
Protected Sub New(ByVal info As SerializationInfo, _ ByVal context As StreamingContext) If info Is Nothing Then
After going through some tutorials I set out to work on my own game. Right now it's simple, I have a ship that moves left, right and shoots. I also have Asteroids that fly at the ship.
The problem is that I have 3 asteroids in an array, and they all act the same... I would like random speeds and directions.
I'm writing a tabbed web browser for someone who is learning VB.NET, and I have got to the point where I can add/remove browser controls into tab pages, controlled by one set of buttons on the main form, but I can't handle events from the WebBrowser objects.I have tried this but it says that 'DocumentTitleChanged' isnt an event of 'Control'...
Dim browser As New ArrayList browser.Add(New WebBrowser) browser(0).parent = TabControl1.SelectedTab browser(0).dock = DockStyle.Fill AddHandler browser(0).DocumentTitleChanged, TitleChangedHandler()
I want to update the tab title with the web page title when it changes. I started using a timer to update the tabs but there must be a way to add an event handler here.
I am getting this error, Not sure why it is happening "Error The SqlParameterCollection only accepts non-null SqlParameter type objects, not Int32 objects."I have tried with all sorts of possibilties, now try to enter default data as dummy data,

I want to let the user input objects to a richtextbox 1 object on each line, and somehow use Random.Next to select pseudorandomly a few objects, the number 'few' inputted in a textbox.
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click Using conn As New SqlConnection("Database=Clinic_Management_System;Data Source=.SQLExpress;Integrated Security=True;AttachDBFilename=|DataDirectory|Clinic Management System.mdf") Dim cmdRecord As SqlCommand
I have a user control that inherits the FW ListView and I need to dispose of two objects when the form's disposing of it's objects. Here's what I've concluded already, am I on the right track?
long story short, I have created a ListView type control, using UserControls for the parent control and the ListViewItems. Most the of the control is written and works fine, right up to the point where I tried to replicate the 'Control.SelectedItems(0).Index' property and the 'SelectedIndexChanged' event.
Each child object knows its index value, and could pass this value via the SelectedIndexChanged event (assuming this is how it works in a normal ListView control -- user clicks on an item, and that item fires an event updating the selected index value in the parent object).
How does the child object raise an event in the parent object? I have a feeling this could be done with Delegates, but I'm still learning about their usage.
I am developing one vb application. In that I have one list box. I want to add different types of Items. Like Different Colored and differently aligned text(Like one item item is right aligned and one more is left aligned). Can you please tell me how can i do the same.
I'm working on a project where I need to information on all the monitors connected to a computer and then write a configuration file based on that. I can already get the screen information by creating a new instance of screen and reading the information such as index, bounds and everything else.I'm trying to create a virtual screen object to hold the information from the screen so I can work with it, or add other properties to it.[code]This all works perfectly how I want it to. Except I would like to do one more thing. How can I make it so that instead of getting Virtual_Screen.Top, I could get Virtual_Screen.Bounds.Top? That way I could create other properties such as Virtual_Screen.Border.Top..I have no idea how to code, or what that would be called. It's hard to search for something you don't know the name of.
I want to compare two objects to check if all the properites of both the object have same value or not. for this i need to use the reflection to enumarate through all the properties of an object and check the value of the property. To try the code just i have written a Employee Class having Two Properties EmployeeNo and EmployeeName. I am creating an object of the Employee class and need to write a function that can list the values of all the properties in the class.
OK - for starters - I'm not even sure that the title of this thread accurately describes what I want to do - but I had trouble verbalizing it. So I will give this a try: In my application, I have a custom object, call it myObject. In addition, I have another custom object called myObjectList which is basically a List(Of myObject).
Up until this point, all of the functions that I have been working with in my BLL and DAL have been shared - I haven't needed a specific instance of my object thus far. I currently need to write a function that finds a particular myObject within myObjectList and returns to me myObject. I know that the List(Of T) has a find method, but from what I have read so far - I don't think it is what I want (doesn't it return true or false? -and also, do I need an existing object to pass to it to see if it is in the list?)
I am using a loop to update properties of each object of a set of custom objects. The routine knows which controls to update because the controls value is not empty, I don't want the routine setting the corresponding properties to nothing when the control is empty. Now I know how to do this perfectly fine with IF statements such as:
CODE:
But this feels really redundant doing that same IF block over and over for each property/control combination, I thought about creating a separate routine that takes the control as an argument and does all the repetitive IF blocks but I don't know how I could also pass an object property to tell the routine to update that particular property.
I'm having trouble implementing an IComparer method. Essentially, I want to compare the properties of two custom objects (the properties are of type integer).dE is a Dictionary(Of String, customObj)prTabIndex is a property of customObj and is of type Integer (these hold true for all examples)After some more searching I found this thread which suggested 3 things: a List approach, utilizing LINQ, and using some C# 3.0 features. I've tried three different ways:...rolling my own IComparer implementation:
Public m As Sub(ByRef d As Dictionary(of String, customObj)) Dim sortedD As New SortedDictionary(Of String, customObj)(d, myCompare) End Sub
[code]....
Note that VS2008 has underlined 'dE.ToDictionary...' (to the end of the line) and giving me two messages depending on where I hover my mouse:
1) "Data type(s) of the type parameter(s) in extension method 'signature' As 'signature defined in 'System.Linq.Enumerable cannot be inferred from these arguments. Specifying the data types explicitly might correct this error. Seen while hovering over "ToDictionary".
2) Nested function does not have the same signature as delegate 'signature'. Seen while hovering over anything after "ToDictionary".
Q1) How far off am I in each of the implementations?
Q2) Which one is the computationally least expensive? Why?
Q3) Which one is the computationally most expensive? Why?
