I have add some items into an combbox, the items represent the values from ContentAlignment Enum, (the values of the combobox are not same as the values of the Enum)
Upon selection of a value from the combobox, i want to set the TextAlignment of the Button
I know this is a proper enum:
Private Enum Months
JANUARY = 1
FEBRUARY = 2
...
End Enum
However, I want to have an enum where the string will solely be integers.
Example:
Private Enum ColumnCounts
01 = 5
02 = 4
03 = 40[code].....
Essentially, I didn't want to put the f in there, just wanted to do 01. The way this will be called is:
Select Case (nRecordType)
Case "01"
...
Case "02"[code].....
Because I'm not making an instance of it and not calling a constructor, there's no way to autopopulate a Dictionary.And I don't want to convert to integer so I'm not going to do an array. That is just in case eventually the value gets above 99 and the next value would be A0.I'm trying to think of easy future changes to this and backwards compatability.If you need more explanations, let me know.
Edit 2:This is what I've done now and I think it should work:
Public Class Part
Private Shared columnCounts As Dictionary(Of String, Integer) = New Dictionary(Of String, Integer)
Public Shared Function ValidateColumns(ByRef lstFiels As List(Of String)) As Boolean[code]....
I can't verify that it's going to do what I want to, but it doesn't give me an error when I build it so I'm crossing my fingers.
I have a URL lets say . some time i need to send HTTP and some time i need to send it to HTTPS for that i created a enum:
Private _protocol As Protocol
Enum Protocol
HTTP
HTTPS
[CODE]...
Now when i get value back from protocoltype it returns me integer value as enum do so tell me how to get string from enum or other substitute.
Dim targetUri As String = setting.protocolType & "://www.mysite.com"
I have the following Enum:
Public Enum myEnum As Integer
first = &H1
second = &H2
[Code].....
Obviously I can code around this issue, but I can see a scenario where that workaround could be easily missed in maintenance programming, and I'm hoping someone can recommend a simple solution that won't break if, for example, the values in the enum have to change at a later date.
I have worked with enums for some time, but i ran in to a little problem.. So i have the Enum:
[Code]...
for example: Dim the_text_value As String = MyStuff(some_func()) ' this returns not "1", but "omg_this_is_one" how can i do this ?
How do I do this C# statement in VB.Net (2005):MainMap.MapType =(MapType)comboBoxMapType.SelectedValue;MainMap only accepts Types so passing the Integer value of the type is not possible. The combo contains a list of strings:comboBoxMapType.DataSource = Enum.GetValues(typeof(MapType));In my case I need to limit the list to less than 100% of the Enum values so code similar to .Datasource= code will not work.So in general I need a way to return an enum given the name of the enum.Maybe I should just do a Collection of Enums (if that is even possible) and use the name as the Key?

View 2 RepliesI'm trying to declare an enumeration and one of the names I'd like to use for an item is not usable apparently.

what i'm trying to do is to create an Integer array with LBound greater than 0. any way would be accepted, or can i say this: my function that takes i As Integer() as its argument does not have to check the LBound of i because there is no way LBound of i will ever be greater than 0

View 8 RepliesWhich is better, using a nullable enum or adding the value None=0 to your enum list?Using nullables requires more code, but I kind of like it since it forces me to think about the possibility. Otherwise I'm liable to forget about the None enum and fail to account for it being a special case.

View 8 RepliesI am working on a form of copy protection for some software i am developing. In order to generate a unique license for a machine i am aquiring information about the hardware the software is running on. For this task i aquire the 'BIOS version' of the machine using the Win32 libaries. As the BIOS version format can vary from machine to machine i need to be able to convert a string value to a integer so i can perform a mathmatical calculation on it.
A typical BIOS version output may look like 'GBT42302e31' for eg once all the spaces and characters are removed. However this output can change dramatically between motherboard manufacturers.How do i convert the value 'GBT42302e31' to a integer like '5356243' for eg so i can then perform a calculation or hexidecimal conversion on it?.
I have tried the following and they all fail with numerous conversion errors:Cint Convert.ToInt64()
