Dereferencing Objects - Make CopiedCollection A True Copy (not A Reference) To The Listbox1.Items Collection?

Jun 30, 2010

Okay I've been wondering about this for a while now, but whenever you assign variable values to objects they tend to just become references to the original object

For example:

Dim copiedCollection As ListBox.ObjectCollection = ListBox1.Items
For Each L As String In copiedCollection
If L = "Goodbye" Then ListBox1.Items.Remove(L)
Next

As soon as it encounters the string "Goodbye" and removes the item from the listbox, the program will throw an error saying the the collection (copiedCollection) has been modified. How can I make copiedCollection a true copy (not a reference) to the Listbox1.Items collection?

.net Collections: Copy Objects From One Collection To Another?

Nov 24, 2011

I'm implementing a customized Graph algorithm in vb.net, and I'm having the following problem:

Supose the code:

dim col as new collection
dim myC as new system.collections.genericList(of myClass)
dim obj1 as new myClass
dim obj2 as new myClass

[code].....

'In the next statement, the myC2 inside col collection will be decreased to contain 'only obj1, like myC. I supose this is for myC and myC2 contains only a pointer to 'objects obj1 and obj2 as well col contains pointers to myC and myC2 myC.remove(obj2)'The problem is that I have to only copy myC to myC2, like a ByVal argument in a function,'instead a ByRef argument, in order to mantain a copy of objects in myC2 while these 'objects should be removed from myC. How should I do it?

Collection To Place These Objects In For Easy Reference?

Nov 11, 2011

I have an error while using a collection that has been stumping me for years.I wrote a class to allow users to write equations in a txt file using RPN (stack based notation).The class runs through a select statement while reading the equation and then ends up with a final number as the answer. I have a collection to place these objects in for easy reference. For whatever reason I get random object reference not set to an instance of an object errors when there is nothing in the program that would remove objects from the collection, kill objects, or change the collection in any way. It is possible for one thread to call the calculate function while another thread calls the CurrentValue property. I'm not sure if this could be causing the error, but once it happens I get an error every time the program enters that code until I run out of memory.

Add Object To Collection (copy Not Reference)?

Mar 27, 2009

i have a user define object which i'm initializing with data from external datafiles.... the purpose of this object is to reduce the amount of disk/data access and processing required every time i need to add an instance of this object to a collection.so, whenever i add a copy of this object to a collection, i would simply reference the "base" object, and avoid having to process all the data and perform the conversion and so on...the issue is when i add the object

Collection.add(Base_Object, Key)

the collection ITEM is a Reference to the base object and not a copy.

Define A Collection In .NET So Can Reference Items Either By Value Or Name

Apr 18, 2011

I often have a class defined and I also define another class that is simply a collection of the other class. To do this I found it easiest just to define the other class as Inherits List(Of Type). The reason I define a collection class is to add extra functionality to the collection. Take the following code for example.

Class Car
Property Name As String
Property Year As Short

[Code]....

how can I define my own collection so that I can reference it by index or name like that. Right now I can only reference it by index.

File.Copy FileNotFoundException Reported Randomly When It's Never True

Nov 19, 2009

The code is very simple.

If File.Exists(strFileMovingTo) Then File.Delete(strFileMovingTo)
If File.Exists(strFileMovingTo) Then
Call SendEmail(Globals.EmailInternetTeam, "dev-sql@fad.co.uk", "Display Jpg

[Code]....

However a FileNotFoundException exception is thrown during File.Copy even though its wrapped in a If File.Exists ... End If to check its existance.

The great thing is if you run this through the debugger it nearly always works, when released as an app it almost never works.

Collection Of Objects With A Unique Key

Jan 25, 2011

i've researched and written a generic class (all my objects are the same structure) and i'm was just working on the collection using a hash table but i've just read a comment within (url...) in this forum...that we shouldn't use hashtables at all with vs2008.i actually need and object collection that contains other object collections within them.the application i'm trying to write is relatively simple (but i'm new to vb.net)it keeps track of the time for weight lifting training/workouts.a workout consists of 'say' a bench press, military press, curls, dead lift, etc within the "bench" you have 1,2, or 3 sets (how many times you do "the bench", within a set you have 1,2,3 or 4 lifters, each lifter does reps.then it starts over with military press..i guess i could base it on a treeview type structure (with parent child type relationships) but i usually think in terms of collections it appears that a collectionbase has no key and i'd have to keep track of them on my own...

How To Create Accumulator For Collection Objects

Apr 23, 2012

I am trying to maintain a total for multiple collection objects in a class. When I create a new object, it resets the total to zero, only adding the current value being passed to the function. I have tried to use a static variable, create a second variable to hold the old total while adding the new value. The base class holds the total value, while the sub class creates the new object that holds information. I am passing the new value to a function in the base class adding the new value to the total when each new record is created.

Pass Collection Of Objects To BackgroundWorker?

Nov 19, 2010

I have an object of type Dictionary(Of Int16, Polygon) and which contains sometimes up to 15 or so Polygons that i am creating bitmap files with the Polygon. This can take like 20 seconds sometimes so i was trying to pass the full Dictionary to background worker as an argument but i get an issue when trying to access each individual Polygon inside of the Dictionary because the Polygons still belong to the UI thread. How can I access the Polygons inside the Dictionary with the backgroundworker?

Dim worker As New BackgroundWorker
AddHandler worker.DoWork, AddressOf MeasurePolygons
AddHandler worker.RunWorkerCompleted, AddressOf WorkerCompleted
worker.RunWorkerAsync(PolygonCollection)

that is how im calling the thread. PolygonCollection is the Dictionary(Of Int16, Polygon) that contains all the polygons that i will be creating a bitmap file out of.

Sort Of A Collection Of Class Objects?

Feb 28, 2012

I'm having problems doing a sort of a custom collection. The collection is Device Classes which is a collection of Device Class. My sort does not produce an error but the treeview control shows nothing. I am not sure what I am missing. I'm guessing just a simple sort won't work here but I don't know what I'm missing in my code. Here's the code that creates the collection

[Code]...

Simply sorting the treeview will not work because it throws off the display of related info for a given device in listview controls. The collection itself needs to be sorted before the data is added to the treeview.
