Does Subroutine Called By A Function Have To Finish For Function To Proceed

Jun 5, 2011

If a subroutine is called within a function, does the function always wait until that subroutine is completely finished before it will proceed with the rest of the function? If so, is there any way to make it not wait and continue on with the rest of function and not care what happens in the subroutine?

Call A Function From Inside Another And Suspend It Until The Called Function Is Finished

Jan 25, 2010

How can I call a function from inside another function and suspend the calling function until the called function is finished? I hope I can get some replies because I don't know how to ask the question and make sense:).

Anyway what I am trying to do in steps:

1. The user clicks button1 which triggers the click event.
2. From the click event I call a function
3. I then pop-up a form, that has instructions for the user to read.
4. After the user has read the form he will click the "Done" button and return to the calling function.

The problem is the the calling function continues to execute. I want to stop execution of the calling function until the users clicks the "Done" button on the instruction pop=up. I know I can use a msgbox but the instructions can be lengthly and does not look good in a msgbox.

I have tried the Call method with return in the "Done" button click but I can make that work. I also tried a goto statement but I can get that to work either. In the call statement I said call frmInstruction.show() and it got there but as I said the calling function continued to execute.

Form Must Finish Loading Before The Function Executes?

Apr 6, 2011

I am using Visual Basic 2005. The program I am creating can either bring up a form (with a bunch of buttons, listboxes and a picturebox) and the user can enter file names onto the form OR the user can drag file names from Windows Explorer and drop the names on the program icon to start the program. During the execution of the program, messages are displayed in one of the listboxes.

All this works fine except for part of the drag/drop scenario. When the drag/drop is done, the form is not fully loaded when the code function starts to put out messages. This means the user may not see any of the messages until all is complete. I have tried putting my executable code in the Form1_Shown() and even added a timer to slow things down a little, but nothing seems to work consistently.

Is It Possible To Hide A Public Subroutine / Function

Oct 29, 2009

Class A gets, as part of it's constructor, a pointer to class B and saves that pointer in a private variable. Class B exposes a public function, F. I'd like for class A and all classes that inherit from class A to NOT be able to call B.F.The idea is that class A will implement its own version of F, one that calls B.F, but the rest of the code should not be calling B.F. If it matters, the two have different function signatures.Maybe another way, like a class C that inherits from class B and hides the public functions? (Cant that even be done?)

Is The Active Function Or Subroutine Name Available At Runtime

Apr 13, 2009

For debugging I've often thought it would be very useful to have access to the name of the fuction or subroutine that is currently executing so that you could print or display this as the code runs. I've been told by some folks that it is not possible, now I'm asking a broader community. Also, when I asked before it was in the context of VB6, now wondering if VB.Net enables access to the executing function or subroutine name.

Repetitive Statements - Alternative To A Function Or Subroutine?

Jun 15, 2009

Repetitive Statements: Looking for an alternative to a function or subroutine. Years ago, I wrote programs for a company using a language called "Algol", I am sure some of you know of it and but many more do not, it is a pretty old language. It had a capability that I used called a "Define" where you could take a statement (for example x = y + z ) and create a 'define' which was a simple, short replication of that statement. (x=y+z) could be defined as 'mysum'. You could then use 'mysum' any where in the program in place of the 'x=y+z' statement.

[Code]...

Is there a similar type capability in Visual Basic? A sub routine does not satisfy the need unless the variables x, y and z are globally dimensioned to the module? I can do this, but would prefer not to. I am expect there is a similar capability, but I personally have only scratched the surface of the VB capabilities.

Asp.net - Insert Function Is Called More Than Once?

Jul 10, 2011

I have a website where people send each other messages Recently I noticed that sometimes the same message is sent more than once
For example, a message is sent four times within three seconds or twice within a second.I do not understand how this could happen, once the user clicks on the button that sends the message .So all the window switches and a message showup saying "the mail is sent successfully." I checked that if the user refreshes the page after it sends a message, then really the message is sent again.But I do not think that's the case, becouse the message is sent twice within one second.I am writing in vb.net and using mysql data base.Maybe it's related to the queue for the db, i do not know.Here's the code:

Function calls:
Call GlobalFunction.update_mailbox_table(user_id, receiverId, txtMessage.Text, private_picture)
the insert function
Public Shared Sub update_mailbox_table(ByVal user_id As Integer, ByVal receiverId As Integer, ByVal message As String, ByVal[code].....

Function Not Getting Called, And Program Stopping?

Apr 18, 2011

I have a function to pull data from a XML, and to report a specific number based on a value in one of the elements in the XML. Unfortuntately, I can't get any break points to work, so I've been debugging with a trace.he strange this is that when i take out the function itself it works like it should, otherwise the Service freezes when it gets to the function and never uses it. I'm calling the function in while loop which is also within a Try Statement, here's example of the code.

Public
Shared Function GetXNumber(ByVal

How To Pass A Function To A Function Is Functors/function Objects Avaiable In VB2010

Oct 12, 2011

I want to make an numerical integration method with takes in an analytic function and integrate it over a specific interval. For the numerical integration procedure I want to use some procedures in nr.com. The problem is that these are programmed in C++ and they uses functors to pass a function to the integration method. How can I do this in VB 2010?

I want to initialize the function (i.e. set a=1,b=0 for function y(x)=a*x+b) and then pass the function to the integration method. Then when the integration method call the function it only calls the function with one parameter (i.e. x since a,b is already set)

What is the best way to do this in VB2010?I want to make a general integration method where I can pass any single valued function and integration limits.

I have just started using VB, and from what I have found so far it seems like the tools you have is

- to us a delegate for the function
- to use a lambda expression for the function
- send a pointer/adressOf
- to create a function class/structure and submit this to the function

As for now I am most inclined to create a function-class. But I am not really sure how.F.ex. I make different classes for each "uniqe function" I want to integrate, but how can I pass them to the integration function when I need to specify the argument type in the integration-function-call?This seems like a basic problem which applies to many Math operations, so I think it would be very useful to clarify this.

If I have two or more threads in the same vb .net app and each of them calls the shared function at the same time with different RADIUS, will they each get their own AREA?

Asp.net - AutoCompleteExtender WebService Fail To Be Called When Function Is Shared?

Oct 25, 2011

I had a problem (which is now fixed) but I've no idea why.I have an Ajax AutoCompleteExtender with a WebService method to populate like <WebMethod()> _
Public Shared Function populateACE(prefixText As String) As List(Of String) However this didn't work - I put a breakpoint in, and it didn't even get hit. However... <WebMethod()> _ Public Function populateACE(prefixText As String) As List(Of String) does work (the only difference being not Shared).

Fair enough, but why? If you have an instance of a class then you can access Shared methods of it; if you don't have an instance of a class then you can access Shared methods of it. So what is going on behind the scenes?

Function Syntax - Call A Function With 2 Arguments When The Function Is Only Defined For One

Apr 1, 2010

I'm trying to undersatnd the syntax of calling a funciton and it seem confusing when I'm using a web service in ASP.net. Maybe this question should be in an ASP forum, but it is a VB question. This simple web service allows you to type in your name and it response with an alert box with you name.

My question is, How can you call a function with 2 arguments when the function is only defined for one. I understand that the second argument is actually a method that handling the respons, but how can you interchange function arguments for methods and how do you know that there are methods for

Here's my call:

Terminate Process - When The Last Function Is Called It Terminates The Execution Of The Application?

Me.Visible = False
Me.ShowInTaskbar = False[code].....

Notice: I used "End", to terminate the process.What I want to do is when the last function is called (Delete_AutoReq_PracNo) it terminates the execution of the application.

Reason...I'll schedule this application to ran from MS SQL Server at night. So realistically, doing all the processes I would like it to stop...Is what am doing sufficient to stop the application from running or there is a more robust approach..

Page_Load Subroutine Is Not Being Called?

Jan 19, 2011

have a look at my VB/ASP code and tell me if you can see what's wrong (I highlighted the important segments in red):

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">
<%@Page Explicit="true" Language="VB" Debug="true"

[Code].....

Basically, I'm trying to get the Page_Load subroutine to execute on the page load, but it doesn't seem to be called. I'm assuming that because I set my feedback label to "feedback" in the Page_Load subroutine, I should see it displayed on the page saying "feedback" on first loading the page and every time I refresh. But this doesn't happen. I'm lead to conclude that the Page_Load subroutine is not being called on the page load.
