Using Double.NaN In Optional Parameter On Interface?
May 27, 2010I have come across something confusing or potentially a bug in Visual Studio 2010 when defining an interface in my VB application: When defining an interface method with a default parameter of type Double, using the Double.NaN constant as the default value causes the code editor/intellisense/precompiler some issues.The following code underlines "INaNTest" and "INaNTest.DoSomething" claiming that 'DoSomething' cannot implement 'DoSomething' because there is no matching sub on interface 'INaNTest':
[code]...
where now "NaN" has been divorced from the "Double." prefix and underlined ('NaN' is not declared. It may be inaccessible due to its protection level.) The code editor has inserted invalid code again.Is there a correct solution to using Double.NaN as the default value for a method as defined on an interface, in VB.net, or is there a fundamental reason why this is impossible?
Properly Use Nullable With Numeric Types In Constructors?
Jan 9, 2011I have a class that implements a range of numbers....call it NumericRange(Of T). Internally, NumericRange stores T as a Nullable, T?. I have another class that wraps this class as NumericRange(Of UInt16). Call this class MyNumRange (I'm being simplistic here). So In MyNumRange, I have a few constructors defined:

Have An Optional Parameter Of The Type List?
Sep 25, 2009Is it possible to have an optional parameter of the type list?Ex.
Private Function TestFunction(Optional ByRef MyList As List(Of Double))
The real problem is giving the list a default value. When dimming a new list, you can use the code below to give it a starting value:
Dim MyList As New List(Of Double)(New Double() {1, 2, 3, 4, 5})
But even after trying many variations of the above code, I cannot get it to work as an optional parameter.
Passing An Optional Parameter To A Webservice
Nov 1, 2010Is there a way to pass an optional parameter to a webservice, instead of having to overload the method?If the webservice user is accessing the webservice directly, I want to do ActionA, if the user is accessing the webservice through my web interface, I want to do ActionA + ActionB.

Databind To Object Parameter That Has One Or More Optional Parameters?
Mar 22, 2011I have an object, called 'PERSON' This person object has a title, firstName & Surname property as well as many other which are at the moment irrelevant. It also has a read only property called Fullname which concatenates the two or three parameters mentioned above depending on an optional parameter 'withTitles' passed over when you call PERSON.FULLNAME
PERSON.FULLNAME(true) <- Will add titles if there are any
PERSON.FULLNAME(false) <- Will give the name without the title
Public ReadOnly Property FullName(Optional ByVal withTitle As Boolean = False) As String
[Code]...
I get an error: PERSON does not contain a property of 'FullName'. If I change this to any other property that does not take a parameter it works as expected. Now I'm guessing that the binding procedure can't handle optional or mandatory parameters for object properties, is this right? Is there a better way to do it? I thought about looping through the collection to add them manually but that kinda defeats the object of DataBinding!
Declaring Optional Controls - Parameter Must Specify Default Value
Jul 28, 2010I have a problem during defining a Sub routine in VB.Net. I am defining a sub routine which is as under
Private Sub ActivateControls(rdbutton as RadioButton, Optional txt as Textbox, Optional txt2 as Textbox)
End sub
When I call this sub routine It gives me the Error that Each Optional Parameter must specify a default value. So, Here I can't understand that what can be the default value of a textbox. What default value I can use here to remove this error.
Optional Method Parameter And String.Empty?
Apr 19, 2012I have traditionally coded empty strings like this "", but for a couple of years now, I have been using String.Empty.I also normally never use optional parameters, but I'm refactoring a solution that's tied into my ERP, and I don't want to break anything. One of the changes was to add a parameter to proc, which pushes a new parameter into the method from which it is called. I coded it like this:
Optional BackReferenceID As String = String.Empty
But I got a syntax error "Constant expression is required." I guess String.Empty is non-deterministic??? Anyway, it seems like a bug. The workaround is of course to use double quotes.
Passing Null To An Optional Parameter With Default Value?
Sep 22, 2010I think this is a pretty basic question, but I just want to clarify. If I have a variable with a null value, and pass it as a parameter that is optional, will the parameter get the null value, or the default value?
dim str As String = "foo"
dim obj As Object
//call 1

Nullable(Of Double) Property Turns Nothing Into 0.0?
Mar 5, 2009I was under the impression that any time I set a Nullable(Of Something) to Nothing, it will take the value of Nothing.In a class, I have;
Private _something As Nullable(Of Double)
Public Property Something() As Nullable(Of Double)
Get
Return _something
End Get
[Code]...
In my page, using this class I set Something = Nothing, but as I step into the Set method, value = 0.0.Am I doing something wrong here? Or do I just not understand Nullable types yet?
Optional Parameter Not Working When Trying To Pass Null Value To Database?
Apr 10, 2009I am hardcoding an insert statement to a database, based on certain details a user enters into a windows form. The form has a few textbox and datetimepicker controls for the purpose. This form enters a single row in a single table in the database.The table has a few possible null columns defined, in those cases where the user does not have any data for those columns at that particular time.
I have to provide controls for passing data to those null columns nevertheless. In my case, I have two such columns that accept null values, and two corresponding controls - a textbox and a datetimepicker. The datetimepicker has a checkbox added to it so that if it is supposed to be null it doesn't pass the default current date value, and remains unchecked to explicitly specify that it is supposed to be null. By default it is unchecked.
My code is structured as follows:
Form1:
'the sub referenced here resides in a dll file in my dataaccesslayer code, and in my actual example is referenced properly.
'I have shortened the code here for simplicity
[code]....
Now it gives me an error whenever the code comes to the executenonquery(), and says something to the tune of "SqlDateTimeOverflow. Must be between 1/1/1753 12:00:00 AM and 12/31/9999 11:59:59 PM."
I think the value of 'Nothing' from the subprocedure's paramter is not being assigned to the sqlcommand's parameter as a database NULL, which is what I need to pass to the database.I know instead of using optional parameters I can easily create overloaded subprocedures where one sub allows not passing values where the column(s) is supposed to null and other overloaded subs permit combinations of which column(s) are null or not. But it is simple as long as there is just one, or at the most two null columns in a table. If I have dozens of null values in a table that the user can choose to enter or not in a data entry form?
.net - Default Value Of Nullable Integer Different In If() Function

View 1 RepliesSetting Nullable Integer To String Containing Nothing Yields 0
Dec 14, 2010I've been pulling my hair out over some unexpected behavior from nullable integers.If I set an Integer to Nothing, it becomes Nothing as expected. If I set an Integer? to a String that is Nothing, it becomes 0! Of course I get this whether I explicitly cast the String to Integer? or not.[code] Previously I had my code up here so without the explicit conversion to Integer? and everyone seemed to be fixated on/confused by that. There were a lot of suggestions that Option Strict On would catch this type of thing. However, this is actually a quirk of the string-to-integer conversion rules which predate nullable types, but still impact them.

Assign A Value To Nullable Integer Via A Ternary Operator / It Can't Become Null
Apr 19, 2012If you assign a value to a nullable integer via a ternary operator, it can't become null..While this question may seem like a duplicate of many, it is actually being asked for a specific reason.Take this code, for example: Dim n As Integer? = If(True, Nothing, 1) In that code, the ternary expression should be returning Nothing, but it's setting n to 0. If this were C#, I could say default(int?) and it would work perfectly. Now it looks like I am going to have to ditch the ternary and use a regular If block, but I really want to use the ternary. If Nothing were truly VB.NET's equivalent to C#'s default, how can you explain this behavior?
