We are currently converting a larger legacy application from .Net1.1 to .Net2.0, both VB. Our new standard is Generic List, instead of arrays.We are recoding component by component. And while not everything is yet stored in generic.list we end up with compile time errors.Converting from generic.list to array is supported with myGenList.ToArray().But from array to generic list isnt that easy."Value of type '1-dimensional array of something' cannot be convertet to 'System.Collection.Generic.List(of something)"I know for sertain that the array consist of the type 'something', so an runtime exception converting is ok.Is there a good way to do the workaround untill the hole application is recoded?
i have issue returning a list in a web method. here is the code
<WebMethod()> _ Public Function getTags(para_parents As String) As List(Of getTypeDetailsByParentName_Result)() Dim context As New PPEntities
[code]....
the error is
Value of type 'System.Collections.Generic.List(Of SaftyonRoad.getTypeDetailsByParentName_Result)' cannot be converted to '1-dimensional array of System.Collections.Generic.List(Of SaftyonRoad.getTypeDetailsByParentName_Result)'
I have a generic List(Of Customer). The customer class has a name, address, and phone number properties. I also have a property of another class that accepts a customer name array. I am able to do this by doing the following:
Dim names As String() Dim i As Integer = 0 'customer.GetCustomers is a List(of Customer)
[Code]....
Is there a better way to convert this to a string array?
I am trying to avoid every single function affecting my response time.therefore my question is using ToArray while converting generic list to array, does this take significant response time?should I use array directly while building my array within for each or working with list of and then at the endusing ToArray? any difference?
I'm writing a program that reads a directory of xml files (not well-formed), parses the xml, and dumps the data into an Excel Workbook.The file contents are similar in that they have many common xml nodes/attributes.Some files have additional nodes/attributes.The xml in these files represent configuration settings for a Web Application, one file per user.The expected output is a worksheet with a column for each node/attribute combination and a row of node/attribute values for each user.I'm just about finished with the program, but I've run into a bit of a snag.As the final step in the process, I need to loop through a generic list of array objects (that represent a user row) and send the array elements to Excel.I don't know the correct syntax to get the array objects out of the list and have been unable to find sample code specific to generic lists of array objects.[code]
I want to pass a List of T where T is an object I've created that has about ten properties (strings, dates and integers).The lst passes to the function successfully. I am also passing an New T of the Object (itm as T).I can see all the values (see image below), but because it's generic I cannot seem to retrieve the property values and I cannot figure out how to iterate through the properties of each itm as they are retrieved in the For Each.[code]
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.
Well this is maybe a little different than other array based conversion questions, but I'm dealing with forced typing concerns due to interface implementation and thus would like a few opinions on the process. I've basically redesigned the Collection suite for .Net because I don't like the extreme simplicity of the default Collections and dictionaries, as well, when I want the more complex concepts I don't want to have rewrite the same collection over an over again.
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?
Public Class notifierMain Public Class Contacts Inherits List(Of row) Public Sub New()
[code]....
When I debug this winforms application I get curType = "notifier.notifierMain+Contacts+row" I want to the Validate function to know it is in MyContacts. How do I do this?
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 want to reading in a excel file and extract the sCodenumber sDescription ans the sStatus and store them in a array : StatusComposeArray(5200) As MyCompose. After this I need this array for comparing outside this class. But as can you see the array is defined inside the sub: ReadingIn_ExcelFilesCompose [Code]
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
I have a program that will compare an array of grocery list items glist and an array of coupon item clist.When I compare the two and if there is a match somewhere in the array I want to have a picturebox visible.When there is no match, I want the picture box not to be visible. [code] The code seems to work great until I come to the else statement.When the code finds a match it displays the picture box and the msgbox without error, but as soon as the message box is cleared, even though i've input it as an ELSE statement, the picturebox goes false again.Does anyone have any idea of how I can "hold" the picturebox to stay visible while the match between the arrays exists?
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 converted c# .cs to vb:= I have 6 errors on:
Red "List" says Too few type arguments to system.Collections.Generic.List(Of T)' Orange "Calendar" says Value of type 'System.Windows.Forms.Control.ControlCollection' cannot be converted to 'Form1.Kobush.Windows.Forms.Appointment'.
i m getting a collection of data in list's object. And from this list i want to get the maximum id.`
Dim objinfo As List(Of AlbumInfo) = objPhotos.GetPhotos_Alb_ID(Me.ModuleId, hdd_AlbID.Value) Dim Photo_Image As String = "" Dim str As String = Photo_Image & fu_Photo.PostedFile.FileName.Substrng(fu_Photo.PostedFile.FileName.LastIndexOf("."))

this returns the "0"th positions id from Convert.ToString(objinfo.Item("0").Photo_Id + 1)but i want to get the last item's id.

In my VB.net application I am populating my customer object and looping through it as shown below.As there are thousands of customers, I want to do it 500 customers at a time.Is there anyway I can have one more For loop to process 500 customers at one shot in vB.netI am not using LinQ as the database is Oracle.[code]
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. [code]
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.
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 created two classes. One class is StudentClass and the other is HomeroomClass. The HomeroomClass contains a readonly property as a generic list of the StudentClass. [code]...
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.
