Cannot Deserialize An Array Of Objects (of Variable Type)

May 8, 2011

I've tried posting this to a few forums, even microsoft... Hopefully this forum is the place to be.

I'm programming an application in Visual Studio 2010, namely in VB.net. I have been developing an application which uses a derived class inherited from TreeView, with the aim of putting custom objects on the nodes. The method I have been using is to have a variable array against the node (of type object) which contains variables in custom classes to contain each of the variables associated with the node.

The two problems I had to overcome were, how to serialize a TreeView, and how to serialize an array of objects (of variable type). Good thing is I overcame both of these with some work of some other folks (and 3 days of my own work).[code]....

Deserialize A Simple JSON Array To .NET Objects?

Feb 3, 2012

I am attempting to deserialize a simple JSON array to .NET objects using the JSON.NET library in visual basic.

For the life of me, I cannot figure out what I am doing wrong here. My JSON string deserializes into appropriate objects (9 in total), but none of the properties are populated.

My code:

Public Class result
Public Property id As Integer
Public Property vote_percentage As String

[Code]....

When using JSON.NET you have to have constructor methods (i.e. Sub New) in order for the properties to get set during the Deserialization call.

Cast Array In Object Variable To Type In System.Type Variable?

Apr 14, 2010

I have this function:

Public Sub DoStuff(ByVal type as System.Type, ByVal value as Object)
End Sub

The 'value' argument is always an array of the same type as 'type'. How can I loop through the values of the array?

I'd like to be able to do something like this:

DoStuff(GetType(Integer), New Integer(){1,2,3})
Public Sub DoStuff(ByVal type as System.Type, ByVal value as Object)
//Strongly types arr as Integer()

C# - Serialize List Of Objects In Android And Deserialize In WCF?

Apr 17, 2012

I have an ArrayList in android that I'm trying to convert to a Base64 String, then passing that to a wcf service though JSON and the wcf service inserts the string into a database. Then I need to be able to read that from the database and deserialize it in a .NET application.

This is how I am serializing the ArrayList in android:

private String convertByteArrayToSave(byte[] b){
if(b != null){
return Base64.encodeToString(b,0,b.length,Base64.DEFAULT);
}else{

[Code]...

The ultimate goal is to be able to be able to create a list of these shapes in the .NET app or android app and be able to read the list in the .NET app and android app no matter where it was created from. I'm able to it when you create the Shape from .NET and read it into android using WCF but creating it in android.

VS 2010 Custom Type Array / List With Adding Items And Specifying Custom Type Variable

Jun 21, 2011

I recently downloaded VB 2010 Express so i am quite new to the language, but i have worked with dark basic, which seems to b very similar.Anyway, my problem is that i cannot seem to correctly set out my array of a custom type/class. i am trying to create two arrays, one of available entities and another of selected entities of which the user selects the entities to be dealt with in irrelevant ways. i have creates a button (called test) which adds some entities to the available list and all the entities come back the same value but they shouldnt be as you'll c in the code. i have run the step into command a found that "available.item(#).Name = " will change all of the entity's names.As of current i am working with lists as the array kept asking for a 'new' statement but i couldnt figure out where to put it.[code]

Populate An Simple Integer Array With Variable Of The Same Type?

Aug 9, 2012

I know vb.net does not include pointers like C language. but I am trying do populate an simple integer array with variable of the same type for example :

dim variable1 as integer = -1
dim variable2 as integer = -1
dim intArray() as integer = {variable1,variable2}

[code]....

it is a very simplyfied verson of what I want to do.I want to change the value of ma variables with my array referencing them with an index as if my variables were pointers of integer in c++ for example so that normally after the example, both variable should hold the number 3 instead of the number -1?

Error - XML Deserialize : No Default Member Found For Type

Mar 19, 2010

I have XML files I am trying to read and import. I have XSD files and have used the XSD.exe tool to create classes for the elements found in the XML files. The problem I have having is that the same file structure can be used for different "message types" (different data structures for different purposes). Because of this, the structure of the file is roughly this:

<Envelope>
<BatchID>SomeNum</BatchID>
<Messages>

[code]....

Where the Order element is, it could be one of a few different element types in the message based on the message type. Currently, I'm trying to read an order file.The XSD tool created all the classes fine but it creates an 'Item' object for that inner element and makes it one of the other strong types during the deserialization, so I end up with something like:

Envelope.Messages(0).Item

Item is just an object and is not strongly typed until the deserialization happens. If I look at the data in Item in a watch window during debugging, it shows it is the strongly typed class and has all the data in the members I would expect to see, but I can't seem to access them by name or set an instance of the strongly typed Order class equal to the Item object. Any attempts I've made so far to read the data have resulted in the "No default member found for type 'Order'" error.

Cast A Variable To A Type Represented By Another Type Variable?

Oct 10, 2009

I'm aware that questions like this have been asked before and I doubt it's possible, but I just wanted to make 100% sure that it isn't.In VB.net or C# (either language, it doesn't matter), I want to cast a variable to a type represented by another Type variable. Here's an example of the kind of code that would be needed in C#:

Object castMe = new Foo();

VS 2008 - User Can Retrieve Value In Any Numeric Array Type Rather Than Specifying An Array Type

An Array Of Objects - An Entry Will Be Stored In Serialports(4), All Other Array Elements Will Be Blank?

Jun 1, 2009

I've come up with the following and it's partly working.

Public serial1, serial2, serial3, serial4, serial5 As SerialPort
Public serialports() As Object = New Object() {serial1, serial2, serial3, serial4, serial5}
dComPort = "COM4"[code]....

The above code works fine! But im having trouble trying to now retreive whats stored in the array.In the above example, an entry will be stored in serialports(4), all other array elements will be blank.If I do this it works.

MsgBox(serialports(4).PortName) ' this retuns the value COM4

But I'd like to loop though all array elements and print out ALL the PortNames, The below code doesnt work, I get an error Object variable or With block variable not set.

For i = 0 To serialports.Length - 1
MsgBox(serialports(i).portname)

Program Function - Says, "The Type For Variable [variable] Will Not Be Inferred Because It Is Bound To A Field

May 18, 2012

Public Class Form1
Dim x, c, number(0 To 19) As Integer
Dim s As Integer

[CODE]...

The variables in the brackets [example] do not actually have brackets in them in the original code. These are where the issues are. For both variables, it says, "The type for variable [variable] will not be inferred because it is bound to a field in an enclosing scope. Either change the name of [variable], or use the fully qualified name (for example, 'Me.[variable]' or 'MyBase.[variable]')." Now, I'm not entirely sure if this is a stupid question or not, as I'm used to VB '98 because that's what we use in my programming class at High School. let me know why this won't work.

-Note: The intention of this program is to continually loop the generation of numbers for this list until I tell it to stop. Button1 ends the program, Button2 generates the list one time only, Button3 is supposed to loop the generation of the list, and Button4 is supposed to end the loop, but not the program.

Variable Naming Conventions To Illustrate Variable Type And Where Variables Are Declared

Aug 24, 2009

I am looking for a good resource on variable naming conventions to illustrate variable type and where variables are declared. So I will have public variables, Private variables, private or local variables. I also may want to declare variables with the same name in different class code (i.e. in the code behind different forms). I am assuming good coding would dicatate a prefix for declaration location.

2) How can I return actual number of Node() array? [code]Outside my class in main project I define cls1 object:[code]Now an array of class2 is created inside cls1.

3) Now,How can I access All of them[node(x) array which is created inside cls1] with all properties and methods available?

C# - Copy Object Of Type AA To An Empty Variable Of Type BB?

Feb 15, 2010

Writing an asp.net mvc app and i have something like this...

Public Class AA
'... has some variables...
End Class
Public Class BB

[code]....

So, now in my program, i just want to copy object of type AA to an empty variable of type BB?it makes sense to do this, as i expect all the fields in AA type object to be copied to the newly created BB type object, and the ExtraVariable in the BB type object i would (will) just assign a value to it later (after the copy) on my own time!!I know copying BB type to AA type would not be appropriate as there would be lost data!But im trying to copy AA to BB, I've used both DirectCast and CType to do this, and i keep getting "unable to cast" error!

Note: I'm using vb.net (but can read c#, no problems)

Sharing Parent Variable With Child Objects?

Nov 5, 2010

I am developing a new class which is a control that inherits from the "Panel" class. In this new class, I have three objects that are generated every time I create a new instance of the class. For simplicity, I will call this class "garage" and the three objects "BMW," "Lexus," and "Acura." So each new garage has three types of cars.

how can I share a variable from the Parent class with all of it's child objects? i.e. The garage has an array variable called "tires" which all three cars use. Rather than create each car object with the tires parameter, I would just like to keep the tires parameter in the parent class so that all my child objects can use it. I know that normally the parent class should provide the child class with all information when creating the child but it would seem redundant to pass the entire tires array each time since all three cars use the same tires and the tires object never change.

Checking Objects Type By String

Apr 15, 2011

How find an object's type when it is a subclass of another object and I only know the string value of the object's type's name. I created the following classes:
HTML
Public Class word
End Class
Public Class noun
Inherits word
[Code] .....

Then, in my code I create a new properNoun and check to see if it is a properNoun, noun or word:
HTML
Private Sub checkTypes()
Dim pn As New properNoun
MsgBox("Is a properNoun: :" & TypeOf pn Is properNoun) 'TRUE
MsgBox("Is a noun: :" & TypeOf pn Is noun) 'TRUE
[Code] .....

I correctly see that pn is a properNoun, a noun and a word. The problem is, using 'GetType' to check pn against a string value, I can only see that pn is a properNoun, not that its parent classes are noun and word. Is there a way to check pn against the string value "noun" or "word" and get back a positive result, indicating that pn is indeed a noun and a word as well as a properNoun?

Attach A Routine To An Event Of All Objects Of The Same Type?

Jan 28, 2010

Is there a way to attach a Sub or Function to an event of many controls at once?For instance, to clear a bound combobox I use this routine on the KeyDown event of the combobox:

VB
Private Sub MyComboBox_KeyDown(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyEventArgs) Handles cboID.KeyDown If e.KeyCode = Keys.Delete Then sender.SelectedIndex = -1 End IfEnd Sub

But if I have many comboboxes, I have to copy the same routine over and over to all of them...Is there a way to attach the routine to the KeyDown event of all comboboxes?

Pseudocode example:

VB
Sub AttachEventOnKeyDown For Each ctl As Control In Me.Controls If TypeOf (ctl) Is ComboBox Then ' On ctl.KeyDown execute "MyDeleteRoutine(ctl)" End If NextEnd Sub

How can this be done?
