Can you define this :
Class
Object
Inheritance
Polymorphism
Abstraction
And could you make it easy to understand I'm having a hard time to understand those terms.
I wasn't quite sure how to label this but that should cover it all. I am using Linq to Sql classes to query a SQL Server table. That part is working fine. I'd like to add the records to a listbox and not just text. I can do this and it works. To get it to display something meaningful in the listbox, I have to override the ToString() function.
So, I've taken the base class tblVendor and created a new sub class tblVendorListObject that inherits tblVendor and overrides ToString to return Me.vendorName. I then use a foreach loop to iterate through the records returned by the query. Next, I create a new instance of tblVendorListObject and attempt to assign the current item in the foreach loop to it.

If we are within the derived class then ofcource we can use MyBase keyword to access base class's object reference . That's fine , how can we take that base class's object reference outside that derived class's definition.My following code will explain what i want . Actually that is giving error right now, but it is explaining my requirement .
Public Class Base
Public x As String

Actually there is error in ReadOnly Property BaseReference's Getter . Error is "Error 1 'MyBase' must be followed by '.' and an identifier. " how can i get base class object reference in Main method ?

View 5 RepliesIn VB.NET, say I have a function Public Function Foo(ByVal currentShape as Shape) Instead up passing in a Shape object, I pass in a subclass of Shape called Square like such: Dim square As Square = new Square() Foo(square). Do I need to convert my Square object to a Shape object before passing it in? If so, how do I do this?

View 2 RepliesI have a class definition that I've seen other define properties that return collections of objects.
Public Property GetAllAdults() as Adults End Property I made the argument that this should be a method in the class, because it doesn't define an attribute of the class, and could not be extended with parameters. Is/Are there reasons why this should be defined as a property vs. a function?

I'm working a business layer (separate assembly) that will contain various business entities used in multiple client applications. One of the client applications is a WCF app that will need to serialize these entities. In order to properly serialize the entities, metadata for data contracts or for XML serialization must be added, but the serialization requirements may vary across applications.
Clearly I need the metadata separated from the class definition. So how do I add metadata to my entities for each separate application?
I call upon the VB ninjas out there. Here's my situation. I need to eventually be able to pass multiple models to a view. Currently I have a linq to sql class that, of course, has a bunch of generated model definitions. I need to make a model that implements multiple models. I somewhat understand how to do this in C#, but this project is testing my VB skillz. Here's some snippets from my linq to sql models. I need to combine these two into one model to pass to the view.

I have a base class which needs to define an enumeration:
BaseClass
- SomeEnum
I then need to create two derived classes from the base class and extend the values in the enumeration:
ChildClass1 : BaseClass

In C# or VB.NET can someone provide the syntax to do this?
In order to organize various methods of my MainForm class, I would like to categorize them into several files. Of course, the methods would still need to access form elements and additional variables I added in the MainForm class.
View 3 RepliesI am currently using reflection to retrieve all properties of a class. I return a collection of PropertyInfo objects and all is working fine.
My problem is, I want to check if a property has been defined in a base class implementation and is therefore inherited in the current class.
I have 3 classes that need themselves in order to do their work but if I declare them the old way it would end up being an endless loop.
As an ex C++ programmer, I know I could use include once but I don't know if there is any equivalency in vb.net Here is the picture.
I have 3 Classes : SQLConnector, ErrorHandler, LogHandler
- ErrorHandler needs SQLConnector to get some IDs from the Database.
- ErrorHandler needs the LogHandler class to prepare the Logs to be... logged.
- SQLConnector needs the ErrorHandler class in case there is errors happening.
- LogHandler needs SQLConnector to insert in the database.
- LogHandler needs ErrorHandler in case the insert is not successful (sends mail in that case)
As you can see, all three classes are needed. The reason why I can't use LogHandler and ErrorHandler as one class is that I will use that class to log transactions and changes according to some parameters. Log is in no way exclusive to ErrorHandler.how I can prevent to make an endless loop and use all three of them as I wish?
In a global module, I define a new type that can take 4 values:
enum tAction as integer
None
Update
Insert
Delete
end enum
A use this type in many places in my code to check the value stored in a variable (if MyAction = tAction.Delete then ...)
In a separate file, I define a class. One of the properties should return a value of this type:
public class XXX
private _Action as tAction
public property ClassAction() as tAction
[Code].....
This way I could check a class property in the same manner (if MyClass.ClassAction = tAction.Insert then ...)
However I get a syntax error in the property definition: 'ClassAction' cannot expose type 'Globals.tAction' outside the project through class 'XXX'
My entire program consists in a few modules, in a single project. How can I use my tAction definition in my classes?
i have a class call it clsFamily this class contains properties that make up a family object. This class works fine with no issues. Now i need a new class (called MyAccount) which contains 3 properties, an ID a user name and a clsFamily object. I have declared both classes as Friend from within my globals Module and define the clsFamily as family, however when i try to put this type within my 2nd class i get an error "Type 'family' is not defined" what am i doing wrong? i know i could get it to work fine by adding the ID and User Name properties to the clsFamily object but i need to define this as a new type of object as the ID and User name are not normally part of this class.
