When we create an instance of a class we also provide its state so are these both same and if not same what's the difference? And also what's the difference when we use equals method for instance or for state?
View 3 RepliesI want to created a nested class that can only be visible to and instantiated from the parent class.But I also want to be able to use an instance of the nested class through a public variable of the parent class.I tried making the nested class private, or making the nested class' constructor private, but it won't compile.Is it possible to do this in .NET?

I have a class in which some of the fields are also classes.I can put values in the "normal" properties, but in the others when o try to assign values it gives the: "Object reference not set to an instance of an object"But the code compiles fine.
dados_Defenicao = New ServiceReference1.draftClaimEntryDefinition
dados_Defenicao.arCode = "123"
dados_Defenicao.claimMarket.warrantyType = "w" - Here it gives the error
How can i fix this ?

If you run this code you will see that the 500 PictureBoxes that are added ( this is easier to show than adding pixels as a pixel is only a single point ) fall mainly on the diagonal.With regard the RANDOM class, why should this be like this when the bounds of the instances are? >>
p.Location = New Point(x.Next(0, Me.Width + 1
), y.Next(0, Me.Height + 1 ))
as in this code.>>

I have a base class called PageBase and then a derived class TestPage that inherits from PageBase. In PageBase I have overridden the OnInit() and when it is called and I inspect the value of 'Me', it is of the type of the derived class and not the base class. My question is how does inheritance really work? For instance, when instantiating TestPage does an instance of PageBase get created too?
Here is my code;
Partial Public Class TestPage
Inherits PageBase
Public Sub New()

View 7 RepliesI've createda vb.net class library where I've defined a number of small classes... nothing complicated, just working with strings, sending emails, etc.In another project, I reference the class library and I'm seemingly able to create an instance ofone of tclasses - intellisense shows me all of the plic properties, methods, etc... all looks perfect. No compile errors at all, nothing b gumdropsand lollipops.When I run the app I'm working on that references the class library, it fails at the point where I'm creating an instance of the class and gives me a vague exception, "System.TypeLoadException".

View 5 RepliesI need to create a new instance of a class that needs a member of the calling class. But i can't pass a reference to the calling class through the constructor.The solution i am looking for is something like this:
Public Class ChildClass
Public Sub New(args)
_MyMember = GetMemberFromCallingClass()

I want this to work without having to manually pass any references or variables from the calling class to the new instance of ChildClass.
I want to create a class that will "search" for something. Basically I load up the "search item" when the class is created and inside the class is logic to do the "search". The result of this logic will be more "searches" that I want to start. How can I have the logic in the class create another instance of the class itself?

Is there a way to do this by passing function pointers?

View 1 RepliesI have a Dynamic Data application to which I have added a class for extending EDM. Everything works great, but now I am trying to set an entity property value equal to a value in session state - and its not recognizing the Session command. I'm trying to do something like this:
audit.action_by = CStr(Session("person_name"))
I think this is because I do not have the class Inheriting Page, but if I do add Inherits Page it breaks other stuff. How can I have the class include the ability to utilize sessions directly without inheriting Page?
How should class member variables be used in combination with class methods?Let's say I have a class 'C' with a member variable 'someData'.I call C.getData(), which does not return a value but instead puts data in C.someData. The class that instantiated 'C' first calls C.getData and then uses the data by accessing the member variable C.someData.I call C.getData() in the class that instantiated 'C' which is a function that returns data.I myself prefer the second way. But it also depends on the situation and it's a small difference. Is it 'bad' to have class methods that depend on the classes internal state? What are the best conventions?

I've an app that starts to work from a module wich should load a form an do other things with a class library who raise an event an the form shoud cath it.The problem is that applicarion.run(frmMain) displays the form in the same thread the the code stops work while the form is open. And I need that the app works in this way because the user need to send files to the app using args and this avoid that the app init another instance of it (in other code) and update the form with the info when the event is raised.[code]
View 9 RepliesI have created an application where from the starting class a modless dialog box is called. Once the dialog box is called then the program will close instead of waiting on the dialog box to call the appropriate functions.
A couple of notes: This was originally written in VB 2005, and I was successful by manipulating the automatically generated code for the starting and clean up for the class. I cannot find this section of code in my VB 2008 project.
I cannot start the program from inside the dialog box, since there are multiple dialog boxes and which one starts depends on what is currently running on the computer.
The program will run with a modal dialog box, but it does not function properly, so I must use modless.
Please help me to prevent the application from closing when it reaches the end of the code in the main subroutine. I want to have a function to explicitly close the application.
I am working with tasks, so I've got the following code to update a label on my form:

Let's say I have a custom class called CustomItem that holds the Name and 'SomeProperty' properties:[code]Now, on the click of a Button, I want to select the CustomItem whose SomeProperty is equal to "Property 4". Of course, this is just "Item 4", but the names and properties are not that correlated in the real application than they are in this example.I have spent ages a long time ago figuring out how to do this. I could not directly set the SelectedItem, because I first need to get the CustomItem that actually matches my condition (SomeProperty = "Property 4"). My solution was to use a loop, looping through each item in the ListBox, and setting the SelectedItem when the right property has been found.[code]Now, is this the correct way to approach this problem? Is the LINQ query correct, or can it be done easier, without the casting? Also, is the LINQ query faster than the For loop, especially for a large amount of items? I expect it to be, but I don't know how to test this.
