View 1 RepliesWell i want to compare 2 strings (version one and version two) and get the differences in a format that i can convert to html on my own, like you can view how a post was edited here on stack*overflow* or like svn tracks differences between revisions....
It must be full managed code library.
Like this JavaScript but i need to do it on the server-side..
I have 2 text boxes and I load a text file in to each box, the files contents are "almost" exactly the same but not 100%. how would i compare the 2 against eachother and output the difference in percentage? I've made a program once before it was pretty cool it did all these things and it was in VB.Net i just cant remember how i did it.. i do know i counted how many of the sames words exist but i cant remember what else i did.
View 10 RepliesI have 2 textboxes where the user enters texts of same length. I need to do a char by char comparison. For this, i used Chars(i). Now, i have been trying to highlight the differences at the string index which is different. I am not able to figure a way out for that.
for example:
string1 = HELLO
string2 = WELLM
When the user hits Compare button, the code should highlight H and W, and also O and M maybe in the same respective textboxes or 2 different labels etc.
I'm trying to create a little program that compares the text from two richtextboxes and displays the differences in text between the two. I.E. one text box contains "i like cheese" and the other contains "i like blue cheese" I want it to display the word blue in a 3 richtextbox. I'm just not sure what the best way to go about it is
View 5 RepliesI have two multiline textboxes, and I want to compare and count the text differences between them. The algorithm appears very complex.. To be exact, I need to check for the spelling mistakes (spaces and newlines can be ignored..)
View 6 RepliesI have a method where I'm taking a generic object and using TypeOf to check what has been passed through. Now I would like to pass it a List(Of T) (T being anything) and no matter what T is I'd like to do the same thing to this list. I tried the following:
public sub foo(ByVal obj As Object)
if TypeOf obj Is List(Of Object) Then
'do stuff
end if
end sub
but this doesn't seem to work if I pass it List(Of String), say. I suppose that List(Of Object) and List(Of String) are being treated as different objects, but I thought that since String is an object, the comparision might work.
Now I realise that this is as ugly as sin and I'm better off overloading the method to take List(Of T) as its parameter, but I'm mostly asking out of curiosity: is there a way of comparing the types List(Of Object1) and List(Of Object2) and getting a positive result, since they are both just List(Of T)?
Im trying to compare two lists,to find out how which items occur in both lists. I also want to test for duplication within a list.Now, the obvious way is a loop/compare which works fine for a low number of items. Beyond 10000 items, things slow down much more than a factor of 10.
Dim List1 As New List(Of String)
Dim List2 As New List(Of String)
Dim List3 As New List(Of String)

I declare my 2D lists:
Dim _invoiceitems As New List(Of List(Of String))
Dim _dbitems As New List(Of List(Of String))
Each List is filled like this: Example Code To fill:
_invoiceitems.Add(New List(Of String))
_invoiceitems(0).Add("Code #")
_invoiceitems(0).Add("Quantity")
Well, now i need a third list called (_changesitems) Note that this result with the differences: be the result of subtraction of quantities if this is found (dbitems - invoiceitems).
I have two generic lists of type T. Both lists contain same type, and I'd like to create a third list (or a filtered version of list 2) based on the items in list two that do not exist in List 1, based on the ID of each item.Each list holds a "Package" object, which has an ID property.Right now I mocked up the code using For Each loops, which I know is horrible (the Big O is constant time) so I'd like a more efficent method. this code is in VB per project requirments, but I prefer C# - so either code sample would work for me.
Private Sub RemoveStockPackagesFromSelection()
Dim p As Package
Dim packageList As List(Of Package) = New List(Of Package)

I have 4 string lists as follows
Dim input_list As New List(Of String) Dim input_POS As New List(Of String) Dim trigger_list As New List(Of String) Dim trigger_POS As New List(Of String)
I want to compare the contents of the input list (containing words (e.g., want, the) etc. to the ones of the trigger list (containign again words) and if a same entry (i.e. word) get the POS for both input word and trigger word from the relevant lists and put them into a property list. For example
input list (want, the, right)trigger list(want, there, wait)input list POS (verb, article, adjective)trigger list POS (verb, pronoun, verb)
Output property list (want:verb, want:verb) (only want is common between input and trigger list). Then I need to conduct a test between the two property items for similarites. If they are exactly the same, the code should output a confirmation "i.e., Yes" into a textbox. If not the code should output a "No" plus the contents of the property list into a textbox.
I have two lists. One list is a list of names, the other list is a list of how many times each name is found in the first list noted in the database
so...
Nick
John
Jim
Jack
is the firs tlist
10
13
13
2
is the second list. Nick had 10, john 13 and so on.I want to sort the second list from large to small, but have the index for the first list still linked to the correct amount of calls.i do it this way so I can
for x = 0 to num_of_names
string = lst_name(x) & "-" & lst_count(x)
next x
I know how to check whether an item exists in a list using (MyList.Contains), But I do not know how to check the whole list. For example (use one button and one richtextbox):

I have two textbox in my application.
Textbox1.Text="19-Jan-2010"
Textbox2.Text="Jan 2010"
May I know how can I compare that Textbox1 and Textbox2 text is within same month and same year?
they need to make some compare version between host version and client version.. and each 1 version different will download the file to the client..[URL]..with both example, how can i make a program in VB.NET just like i said just now?
View 15 RepliesWhat are the differences between 32 and 64-bit .NET (4) applications?Often 32-bit applications have problems running on 64-bit machines and conversely. I know I can declare an integer as int32 and int64 (certainly int64 on 32-bit systems make problems). Are there other differences between programming an 32 OR 64-bit or a both 32 AND 64-bit compatible application?

View 3 RepliesWe have legacy character codes that we want to store as numbers in a new system. To increase readibility and general understanding in the code for devs making the migration, I want to do Enums like this..
[Code]...
With this setup, the code will be readable (imagine If Record.Status = Status.Open), and yet the values will be stored in the database as small numbers so it will be efficient. However... I am a VB.NET guy, but everybody wants to code in C#, so I need this sort of structure in C#.After Googling, I discovered the the general .NET equivalent of AscW is Convert.ToInt32("C"). When I try to use that statement in an enum, I get the compiler error "Constant Expression Required".
in order for me to get help on me and my programming partners vb6 rpg, I have to upgrade the project to the vb.net platform, and I am worried that the IDE interface that is used to program the vb side of the rpg is different, so I am wanting to ask any of you if there are any significant changes to the IDE or if it is relatively the same as it was in vb6... I am also hoping that someone here can also help me to see what is wrong with my load/save function... I now thought of something to try to see if that is the issue or not, but the code is still vb6 code, the only difference will be that the program will be upgraded to the .net platform, so if that changes anything in the code, then I am not aware of this as of yet, because I am still downloading the visual studios 2010 express iso right now... so I do not know for sure yet what will be changed.

View 1 RepliesToday I was playing around with Entity Framework and I've read that the generated IL for C# was different than VB.NET for the following code:
[code]...
As it seems the VB.NET version of this code will contact the database every time the code is executed while the C# version will retrieve the entities from the cache when the code is executed multiple times.Why would they make both languages behave in such a different manner?It was my misconception that both languages just differed in syntax and had almost exactly the same generated IL.Are there any more examples where both languages generated such different IL?

I've heard that the c# garbage collector can be 'more aggressive' than it's vb.net counterpart. Is this true? Are there any other differences in how garbage collection is run in vb.net vs. c#?
View 5 Repliesi'm using Enumerable.Except to check if a DataTable in memory is in sync with the table in database.
The background is: this DataTable and other frequently used tables are stored in the Cache of a WebApplication. But meanwhile i'm convinced that this is not a good approach because it's a source for nasty errors that are difficult to reproduce/debug.
Therefore i've created a function that checks if database and memory are in sync, otherwise an error-log will be created. This works perfectly. If there is a row in memory that is not in database, this row will be shown below "Difference in database", the same applies in reverse. But if rows exist in both datasources(the PK idRMA) and some values differ, the log will contain this row in two versions(below "Difference in database" and "Difference in database"). It is not easy to see the differences on the first sight.
Q: Is it possible to select only the properties that caused Except to think that first sequence is not in second?
This is the the complete function(the first lines are relevant):
Public Shared Sub CheckRmaMemoryInSyncWithDB()

In VB, when we adding a new references - in my case web references -, it simply type namespace followed by the class name to make a new object.For example:
Dim obj As NamespaceName.ClassName = New NamespaceName.ClassName
Then I apply this concept in C#. So my code will be:
NamespaceName.ClassName obj = new NamespaceName.ClassName
...and it doesn't work.Actually, is there any difference about Importing Namespace between those two?And also can you give me a little explanation about Project-Wide Default Namespace Imports in VB?
UPDATE:My point is why "In C#, When I've typed NamespaceName, the ClassName was not listed in the Intellisense?".However, it did well in VB, do I have to import something?Maybe, there is something to do with the term "Project-Wide Default Namespace Imports". (CMIIW)
What are the differences between a HashSet(of T) and a list(of T). I recently discovered HashSet and it seems to be substantially faster and uses much less memory than a list, so why use a list at all ?
