I'm writing a ray tracing program that uses snell's law to trace rays through a system of lenses to examine abberations in a given design.I have a class called lens, which holds variables for example, name of the lens, description, number of elements.I want to be able to have a sub class or array within lens (or some other way to manage this data).I wont know what number of elements is until run time.
So I would need to define the array at run time.Part of the idea of my program is randomly generate lens elements within given rules (as in a massive lot), keep the top designs and continually refine them by making billions of micro adjustments to the variables that define the lens etc, which I can pick up later on as it'll save the database/variables.For example, say Lens(63).NumberOfElements = 6.
I want to be able to access Lens(63).Element(3).Radius1 Etc, there will be a bunch of variables under Element, such as Radius1, Radius2, refractive index, horizontal diameter, vertical diameter, and spacing between the next element if it isnt the first.
And Lens(70) may only have 4 elements etc. How can I define a different array size like that in the class under different parent array indexes at run time?
I need to create an array of a class type. Populate the values in the class and then pass the array to a subroutine. I havent figured out how to do this properly as I get a null reference exception. Can someone show me how to create/instantiate the array of objects? Here is a simple example with only one property named "_momentum". My actuall class has about 10 properties/variables in actuality
I want to create a user defined data structure, which will be a 2 dimensional array such that each individual square of this 2-dimensional array will also store the score and the grades. ( Iam using VB.NET) More details:
for example: There is an 2 dimensional array with 3 columns and 2 rows, I want to fill each of the
(0,0);(0,1);(0,2) with their own score (Integer type) and grades (String Type).
And this is same for the rest of the squares i.e. (1,0);(1,1);(1,2) and (2,0);(2,1);(2,2)
After creating such custom data structure: "CustomArray", I should be able to create the instance of this custom data structure (which will be a class) and code something like this:
Dim objCustomArray as CustomArray objCustomArray = New CustomArray for i as Integer =0 to 3
I want to create a custom class that has inside an array of another custom class (see my code below) but when the programm runs is crashes. Why? What is the right expression???? Plz help I'm a newbie in VB.net.....
Public Class ctrarray Public nameclass As String Public ctrlindex(glvar_spaces) As ctrlindexclass End Class
I've a treeview in my project form which look like this.
-Cover Page -Video1 -Podcast1[code].....
The user will be able to upload their pages to the respective pages nodes and I am suppose to make it in such a way that after the user uploaded the cover page which is showing at the PictureBox1 which I've use to display the image, and when he uploads the second page image at the PictureBox1, the Cover page image that he uploaded earlier on will not be overwrite.
I was told to create class and use array to store the contain in the respective nodes but I do not have any idea how to do it.
I am trying to create an list or an array of a class.Here is my "Ingredient" class that I am trying to create a list of:[code]In my "recipe" class, I am want to create a list (or array) and I am drawing a big blank on how to do it. Can anyone point me in the right direction?
I'm designing a small GUI Windows program that allow staff at a cinema to reserve seats for customers. There will be a total of 60 seats in the cinema. I have two classes in my program:-
1.) MainForm.vb - used for I/O actions and user interaction
2.) SeatManager.vb - used to hold and handle the background methods and functions that make the program work
Here is the code for my MainForm.vb class thusfar:-
Public Class MainForm Private Const m_totalNumberOfSeats As Integer = 60 Private m_seatManager As SeatManager
[Code]....
Basically, when the program opens, the lstReservations list in the MainForm class will be populated with a total of 60 (m_totalNumberOfSeats) entries to represent 60 seats. Each of these seats will contain the index number from the array m_nameList; this index number (+1) will represent the seat number and then in the lstReservations list, after the seat number, I'd like it to contain the respective entry from the m_nameList array. As all entries will be held in RAM, when the GUI is opened, all m_nameList array entries will be empty. As the user uses the program, they can highlight a row in the lstReservations list and then use the GUI textboxes to enter the customer's name which will then be populated into the respective array entry.
how to, when the GUI opens, ensure that the lstReservations list takes all of the blank entries from the m_nameList array and from there, I can highlight a row to carry out further methods on?
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]
If I make the following array in a push button event and I want to put those array variables in a class array. How do I do that? I am just beginning to learn about classes in vb.net but I am having problems using classes and arrays.Is there any good tutorials on that subject.
I've been creating short test apps repeatedly to try to understand some of the concepts in VB.NET.For the most part it has been illuminating.I read Bucky's .NET knowlegebase tutorial on passing objects as parameters to newly created forms. He shows how to create a new class that inherits from the base form class and define a New() method with parameters Extending the concept I thought about doing the same thing with a form that was created at design-time (In this case Form2).
I want to read a number of items from a file and then associate each of those items with a new button at run-time, so that when the user clicks one of the buttons I can display some information about that item.Can I use a LIST to manage these buttons and items? Can I create a new class and have each list item of that class, such as 'btnID', 'btnText', etc... ?

I am New to <acronym title="Visual Basic">Vb</acronym>.Net. this is my first test. i try to create small address book. but i don't know what wrong. it compile perfect but when it run it give error and not work. is there any other way to add same class like in class inside array?
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?
I have two classes, and for a property in one of the classes I'd like to be able to load it up with an array of the other class. However my attempt at accomplishing this results in a "Object reference not set to an instance of an object" error. I know it's a rookie mistake, but I'm stumpedssist?
My code is as follows: Namespace Parking Public Class garage
In short, I can't seem to get the xml serializer to serialize an array of one class type embedded within an array of another class.I have two classes, one of which contains an array of the other class, as follows (there are other objects in the classes that I've not included):
[Code]...
There must be a simple way to get the XML serializer to serialize the array of the class embedded within the array of the class that I am serializing. Am I missing something?
I'm in the process of trying to create a class that will allow me to create windows shortcut; Im using the following PDF file that gives me the shortcut file structure.
Ive been able to successfully load a shortcut file and parse its Lnk File Structure but now Im on the Shell Item ID List structure but I cannot find the Structure of the ITEMIDLIST anywhere
Furthermore I know I could use the Windows script object, but this is a dependency Im trying to avoid if I can, hence writing my own Shortcut class.
This was an experiment to see if I could create a fake array using generics instead of using an array. I decided to try it, because I may use it if I find any advantages to using it over an array. it works, I am just asking for a second or third opinion, have I screwed anything up, or is there an easier way to accomplish this? If I use it, it will be for a 2D game I am creating, and is used to draw the 2D screen graphics, placing an image based on what image identifier is located at what coordinates. The value stored in the fake array is an integer that disignates the graphic to draw and whether it is passible or not, i.e. 0 = a floor image, 501 = a wall image that is impassible (any image number > 500 is impassable) The Class definition:
