Testing String Value Of Nothing Is Equivalent To String.Empty
Feb 24, 2010I have a nullable database field of type varchar. I am writing a unit test for a service method that retrieves the value of this field. The service method uses a custom DAL that returns a value of String.Empty if the database field is Null (this is desired behaviour).

View 3 RepliesC# - .Net Equivalent Of The Old Vb Left(string, Length) Function?
May 9, 2009As a non .net programmer I'm looking for the .net equivalent of the old vb function left(string, length). It was lazy in that it worked for any length string. As expected, left("foobar", 3) = "foo" while, most helpfully, left("f", 3) = "f".
In .net string.Substring(index, length) throws exceptions for everything out of range. In Java I always had the Apache-Commons lang.StringUtils handy. In Google I don't get very far searching for string functions.
Edit:@Noldorin - My first encounter, although it took me several seconds to do the same in c#:
[Code]...
Note the static class and method as well as the this keyword. Yes, they are as simple to invoke as "foobar".Left(3). See also c# extensions on msdn.

DateTime Binary Coded Decimal Byte() Equivalent Of String Format?
Sep 30, 2010I realize the code listed below, whose serial port using string formatting which I inherited is complicated. It formats a Date obtained from a DatePicker control into a "yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss" string format to send to a hardware device to be stored via Serial Port retrieves the date from the device and displays to user What I'm trying to do is port the code for use in a Socket rather than Serial Port which wants a Byte Arrray of the same Date Time string variable. I can't figure out how to encode and convert to Bytes the string value used in the Serial Port version. The evolution of the process is listed from top to bottom.

Converting String With Accented Characters To Non-accented Equivalent
Feb 9, 2012I want to create a VB.NET function that will take a string containing accented characters and convert it into the non-accented equivalent. My particular requirement is associated with non-English names. Some real examples are timac, Huki, Bttcher, Bj¸rnbakk, rnrohr and Synneg. I would want to convert those examples to Stimac, Hukic, Bottcher, Bjornbakk, Furnrohr and Synnevag, respectively.I am aware that a(with an umlaut accent) is often replaced by 'ue' but replacing it with u is better for my purposes. Similarly, I want to replace with o, rather than 'oe'. I am assuming that all the required conversions will need to be hard-coded in the function.Are there any slick ways to write such a function, ideally preserving the capitalisation in the original string?

.net - Equivalent Of VB And And Or In C#?
Oct 14, 2010I know that AndAlso is equivalent to && and OrElse is equivalent to ||. But what is the cleanest way to achieve the equivalent of Visual Basic's And and Or in C#?For example, consider the following VB.NET code.The ValidateForControl method performs some validation and returns whether the state of the specified control is valid. The entire input form is valid if all controls are valid. However, each control must be individually validated even if one is invalid (which requires the operator not to short-circuit). Visual Basic's And operator is perfect for this situation, but unfortunately there's no equivalent operator in C# as far as I know (&& short-circuits).

Rather than doing a longer-winded way such as: [Code] I have found that this only works when SectionID is 2 or PageID is 8. If SectionID is 3 or PageID is 12 then it doesn't work.

.Net Equivalent Of A C++ Stub Lib?
Jul 17, 2011I've got a large codebase which I'd like to expose to plugin authors to allow them to use VB.Net Express to code plugins for a server app, which is not available to them. My problem is that even with obfuscation, I'd rather not distribute the complete app and/or dlls, as even with obfuscation peeling apart a .NET assembly and puzzling out code is relatively easy to do. I'm interested in this because the licensor I obtain the code from requires me to protect IP and assets and while distributing .NET apps opens up the app to disassembly, keeping the server app private and allowing users to utilize a skeleton dll to code against is a happy medium.
What I'm looking for is some way or a utility to go through my server app source code and create a codeless version of the app which only contains method and property signatures.The intent is to provide a stub .NET dll for them to add as a reference and code against as if they were directly interacting with the server, without actually providing the server code to them, compiled or not. I can of course do this by hand but there are over 90 classes and hundreds of thousands of lines of code I'd rather not spend a week hand tweaking. Also, this presents a problem whenever new methods or code are added to the project. Finally, two separate projects is an even worse scenario.Because people will post suggestions that have little or nothing to do with the question, here's a short, clear example. I want to turn this class:
Public Class MyServer
Public ReadOnly Property Name() As String
Get
Return "Whatever"

.Net/C# Equivalent Of ADSYSTEMINFO?
Nov 16, 2011I'm looking at some old ASP code that contains the following:
Set objDSE = GetObject("LDAP://RootDSE")
Set objSysInfo = CreateObject("adsysteminfo")
Set objUser= Getobject("LDAP://" & Replace(objSysInfo.UserName,"/","/"))
dtmValue = objUser.PasswordLastChanged
[code]....
This is for an intranet app that uses integrated authentication. Is there a replacement for the ASP adsysteinfo object? I can probably port most of the LDAP calls using System.DirectoryServices.DirectoryEntry, but is there a better/easier way to do this in ASP.NET (VB.Net or C#)? how to convert the ASP object properties to DirectoryEntry properties?

C#'s Equivalent To .Net's DirectCast?
Apr 21, 2010Does C# have an equivalent to VB.Net's DirectCast?I am aware that it has () casts and the 'as' keyword, but those line up to CType and TryCast.To be clear, these keywords do the following;CType/() casts: If it is already the correct type, cast it, otherwise look for a type converter and invoke it. If no type converter is found, throw an InvalidCastException.
TryCast/"as" keyword: If it is the correct type, cast it, otherwise return null.DirectCast: If it is the correct type, cast it, otherwise throw an InvalidCastException.
EDIT: After I have spelled out the above, some people have still responded that () is equivalent, so I will expand further upon why this is not true.
DirectCast only allows for either Narrowing or Widening conversions on inheritance tree, it does not support conversions across different branches like () does.ie: C#, this compiles and runs:
//This code uses a type converter to go across an inheritance tree
double d = 10;
int i = (int)d;
