I have an Account Class that is able to create notes(Class), however i am able to create the note object by itself which is not the desired outcome, i want only the account class to be able to create the note object. Another Example would be, an order item should not be created without an order class. But how do you enforce this in vb.net.

I'm trying to get the ATM Class to Instantiate on the Form class.
[code]...
ISSUE = " 'ThisATM' is used before it has been assigned a value. A Null reference exception could result at runtime"
The Other problem i am having is with a class in the program called CardReader. What am i supposed to type to let the code below be able to "read" the read function on the Form1?

Dim a as Type=GetType(className) would gimme the type. But I have only the name of the class as string. I want something like GetType("class1") which would return the type.

View 5 RepliesI'm trying to decide whether to get a value, call it X, in my class through a read only property or through a function. Normally I'd code it as a property except in this case the GET involves doing a lookup to a sql table. So there's way more overhead than a simple RETURN X. So my question is, when I instantiate a new object from my class, are all the properties calculated at that point, so that the sql lookup will occur too? Or is the property only evaluated when I actually reference it in the calling code.
View 3 Repliesthis is what i want to do. I have a class library project into my solution. Into it i have a class. I want that class to be instantiated as soon as the solution starts. So it can be accesible from the other projects in the solution like this: Namespace.InstanceOfTheForm.Property Is there any way to do that? or something close to that?

I am currently playing around with VB.Net using Visual Studio 2010 (.Net 4.0) and I need your help to create a collection class (let's call it 'cl_MyCollection') with a constructor that accepts two arguments:An SqlDataReader object Some means of pointing to a custom class I have created.I have five database tables in SQL 2000 and five VB.Net custom classes.Each custom class contains a variable for each field of the table the class represents.For example:"tbl_User" has 2 fields "User_ID" and "User_Name" and tbl_Family" has 3 fields "Family_ID", "Family_Name" and "Family_ Location". [code] Fixed typo, the select case now points to the second argument ('selectedClass') as originally intended.

I am trying to run a backgroundworker to load data from my DAL (which is available in another class). I want to keep the UI available and not have the "locked up" feel while the object is loading.When I create a simple backgroundworker and Sleep the UI stays responsive and my controls can be updated after the sleep. As soon as I replace the sleep with a call to instantiate the object from my DAL, the UI locks up. Is there someway I can instantiate this object using the background worked and keep the UI responsive?
When the situation object is instantiated it could take several seconds for it to load completely, during this time is when the UI is locked up... It does eventually load just fine.

I am creating user accounts in Active Directory via vb.net.Once the account is created I need to assign permissions to the "homedirectory" that I have assigned in Active Directory.I have access to the Active Directory name attributes but I need to convert these to a NT account format ( DOMAINAccountName ) to add security via the DirectorySecurity AddAccessRule method.Is there a way to instantiate the NTAccount class from an Active Directory Entry? I'm not sure if this is necessary I just found that class and it looked like a good fit; a simple routine to create the DOMAINAccountName from the Directory Entry attributes like cn might also suffice.

In VB.NET, if I create a class it is a reference-type. But, if that class it chock full of value type properties, how is this handled? If the class is instantied but never filled, I suspect a pointed for to the heap is allocated. But is more space allocated on the stack for all of it's value type properties?

I have a requirement where I need to have a "type safe" way of accessing property names, without actually instantiating an object to get to the property. To give an example, consider a method that takes as arguments a list of IMyObject and a string that represents a property name (a property that exists in IMyObject).
The methods implementation will take the list and access all the objects in the list using the property name passed... for some reason or another, we won't dwell on that!!
Now, I know that you can do this using an instantiated object, something like ...
Dim x as MyObject = nothing
Dim prop As PropertyInfo = PropHelper.GetProperty(Of MyObject)(Function() x.MyProperty)
Where my helper method uses reflection to get the name of the property as a string - there are numerous examples of this flying around on the web!
But I don't want to have to create this pointless object, I just want to do something like MyObject.MyProperty! Reflection allows you to iterate through a types properties and methods without declaring an object of that type... but I want to access a specific property and retrieve the string version of its name without iteration and without declaring an object of that type!
The main point here is that although I am trying to get the property name as a string... this is done at run time... at compile time, I want this to be type safe so if someone changes the property name, the compilation will break.
I'm trying my best now to develop a way or a function which can automatically cast a variable from type : OBJECT to instance of my own class based on some parameter.
I tried the following but it's not working fine
it show an exception ("
Object reference not set to an instance of an object.") on line :

[Code]....
so I used to mess around with C#, just a little. And someone had helped me make a class for Visual C# that was supposed to do the math parts for "internal structure" - which the program used for a part of its calculations and screen... Basically there were 2 options. Endo-Steel and Standard. The user would use a updownbox to determine weight of the machine and then internal structure was a % of that total. If it was standard then it was 10% of the overall weight, if it was Endo-Steel then it was 50% of standard (so 5% of total weight) rounded to next 0.5 (so .25 was .5, 1.25 was 1.5, 1.75 was 2.0, etc). I have the code for the C# class file for it, but want to make it in VB.
