Is it possible to make a variable hold a reference to an integer instead of copying its value when using integerVariable = integerValue ?

View 2 RepliesHow does the GC dispose objects created in the following 2 scenarios?
1)
Private Function DoSomething() As Boolean
Return New DatabaseManager().Insert()
End Function
2)
Private Function DoSomething() As Boolean
Dim mngr As New DatabaseManager()
Return mngr.Insert()
End Function
In Option 1, I don't create local variable to hold the reference of the object. In Option 2, I hold the reference in local variable.What option is better and why? (if any)
What's best practice (in VB.Net):
Function GetSomething() as String
GetSomething = "Here's your string"
End Function
or
Function GetSomething() as String
Dim returnString as String = "Here's your string"
Return returnString
End Function
Obviously, neither of these implementations make any sense, but they're just meant to illustrate my point. Is there anything to be gained by using GetSomething itself to store the return value instead of declaring returnString locally and then returning that (does it avoid having an extra string allocated/instantiated - and if so, are there any performance/memory benefits)?
So I do not know at design time if the var ms is going to be a stringreader or a memorystream. So I am trying to do basically this:
Dim ms as object = myfunction...
Dim mytype As Type = ms.GetType
Dim returnedobject = ser.Deserialize(CType(ms, mytype))
But I get an error saying "type mytype is not defined". How can I do this?
Since I like to use the ReadAllBytes and WriteAllBytes methods to save my variables to disk, I have had no troubles thus far with Integers.It has been easy to convert a short integer into a string of two bytes to save them using WriteAllBytes as following example:-
ReDimxji(0 To 601)
For I% = 0 To 300
J% = hbs(I%)
[code].....
But now I want to store some Single variables using WriteAllBytes, so I need to convert my single variables to a string of four bytes for each.
I want to know if it is possible to declare a variable thrice.

I have a form with 2 controls, a textbox and a button. The user will type text into the textbox and then when they click the button the text that they entered will be added to a List Collection. You can see the code below. There is just 1 problem. Where would I put my declaration of my List Collection so that it holds the values and does not start at the first element everytime the button is clicked?[code]

I have been debugging my code for a while and looking at posts in other forums, but it seems to be that everyone has a different problem than mine and what works for them will not work for me.My dropdown list is supposed to filter a gridview by choosing all the Companies that are associated to a certain product. The solution I have found online is that most people did not have DataKeyNames set in their gridview. I do have this set, but not to CompanyID. It wouldn't make any sense. So I have no idea what I am supposed to do since this is the only answer I have found.
<asp:DropDownList ID="ddlCompany" runat="server" DataSourceID="dsCompanyFilter"
DataTextField="CompanyName" DataValueField="CompanyID" AppendDataBoundItems="true"

How do you declare a variable as a Date and initialize it with a date before year 1. I would like to caluate historical BC dates using a fuction that returns the ellaspt time.
I've used this line of code however I can't to work setting the date value to a negative.
Dim
myDate As Date = CDate("2/6/1400")
why we can't declare a variable on some class such as math
for example?
dim s as new math
?
but we should imports them..
I have searched online for a few hours to try to figure out how to do this, but nothing I found really makes sense, so could someone please tell me, in a simple way, how to do this?
Let's say I have a text box that the user fills out, named textbox1. And I have a combo box, named combobox1, which contains the choices A, B, C. And then I have a button named submit_button.
Each time that the user clicks submit_button, I would like to dynamically create a new variable. This variable should be named the same as textbox1.text, and should contain the value of combobox1.
For example, if the user types "blue" into textbox1, and chooses value "C" from combobox1, and then clicks submit_button... then the following variable should be dynamically created, like..Dim blue as String = "C"
And then, after that, if the user types "red" into textbox1, and chooses value "B" from combobox1, and then clicks submit_button... then another variable should be dynamically created, like...
Dim red as String = "B"
And each time the user submits new information into the textbox and combobox, a new variable should be created.Is it possible to have the program automatically create variables like this? If so, how?
My actual project is much more complicated than this, of course, so the above is just an example. But if I could figure out how to solve the problem in this example, I could figure out how to solve the entire project.
I can declare a variable in VB.NET that stays even after closing and re-opening the program?

View 6 Replies I am working on an alarm system software, which is SMS-based. I am using a GSM modem to receive the SMS when a client's premise security devices are triggered. The types of SMS text received will be like for e.g. "fire alert"(when devices triggers), "fire clear"(when devices are 'reset').
My program can detect real and false alarm, it works this way, i will input a premise site-map on a picture box at the main GUI, i can then create buttons at run-time and drag them to the respective position on the map. The buttons created have their text set as the client's block number referred to the database. So basically, a button represent a client. When a device in the client's premise is triggered, a SMS will be sent and my GSM modem will receive it, process the SMS and the button representing the client will start 'flashing' showing that the client's premise is under danger. Then when the button is clicked, which acts as an acknowledgement, will display the client's information on labels and turning that specific button to red color. Finally, when the device is 'resetted' in the client's premise, it will send another SMS to my GSM modem, after processing, the button will be back to normal.
But my program has detect false alarms also, the first part is similar to mentioned above, client's premise security device triggers, SMS sent, SMS received by GSM modem, process SMS, button 'flashing'. Secondly, if the alarm is false, it will be automatically 'resetted' or the client may 'reset' it, then a SMS will be sent to my modem, turning the button to 'flashing' green in color. when 'acknowledged' will display the client's info and the button will become normal.
The problem here i am facing is during the processing of the SMS, because the real and false alarms both will receive the 'clear' SMS when during some stages, but the functions are different and of course the 'checking' for both functions will be different too. The problem occurs at the checking process whereby the 'btn' variable is not detected.
'Try
'AT commands to receive SMS
serialPort.Write("AT+CMGL=""REC UNREAD""" & vbCrLf) 'set command message format to text mode(1)
