Function Returning An Object With Type Specified In The Argument

Mar 22, 2011

How can I create a function that returns an object of a certain type, which the user of the function specify in the argument (using vb.net 2010) ?

[Code]...

The code above doesn't work, but maybe it can explain what I want to achieve. Using this feature, I want to hydrate my data transfer objects from datatable. Client will just call this function, specifying which DTO the client wants, and this function will just create that DTO and populating the properties with reflection GetType.GetProperties().

Asp.net - Returning Object From A Function?

Feb 8, 2012

If an object is created inside a function and the function returns that type of oject how is the memory handled.

Example:

Public Function GetEmployee(employeeid as integer) as employee
Dim oEmployee as new employee
oEmployee.FirstName="Bob"

[code]....

Does the variable that receive the object still a pointer to the memory location that was used inside the function?What about when you do a oEmployee2=oEmployee.Is oEmployee2 just a pointer? And any changes to oEmployee will now affect the other. Just trying to understand it from a memory perspective and how that scope works?

Passing A Type As An Argument?

Aug 12, 2010

I'm using VB.NET 2003 with .NET Framework v1.1. I know it's getting a bit old now but I'm stuck with an existing program and don't have the time/knowhow to convert it to anything newer.

My question would probably be solved very easily with Generics in .NET 2.0 but as I can't use that right now, I'd like to know if the following is possible:

I have a load of manager classes which inherit from DictionaryBase and hold collections of my custom classes. For example, I have a Employee class, a Batch class, a Supplier class, etc... and each of these has a Manager classwhich holds a collection of them - eg: my PlantTrayMgr class holds collections of PlantTrays, etc..

I have one particular form where I have to populate loads of comboboxes with the contents of various Manager objects. What I currently do in my form load event to populate comboboxes is this:

Code:
Option Strict On
Option Explicit On
Private _plantTrayMgr As PlantTrayMgr

How To Access A DLL Function Having A Void Pointer Argument

Jan 4, 2012

I need to access a DLL function which has a void pointer argument (probably written in C/C++). In VB6 it could be accessed by declaring the argument as 'Any'. VB2008/VB2010 does not know this variable type 'Any'.

I tried instead: Object, IntPtr, UIntPtr, Int32(), Long e.t.c. but there always occurs a compile error or a runtime error.I did a lot of Internet investigation but could not find any answer.

Is there a solution to this?

Pass An Array Of Arrays As A Function Argument?

Nov 11, 2010

I have several parameters consisting of separate System.Byte() arrays. What I need is the syntax for a function declaration where the parameter is an array of arrays - I do not want to delve into System.Collections, and it's my preference not to CType each array into an Object and then back into a Byte().

Problem I'm having here is that:

Public Function MyFunc(arrayparam() As System.Byte) As System.Byte()

accepts a single-dimensional Array of individual Bytes.

Then Public Function MyFunc(arrayparam() As System.Byte()) As System.Byte()

VS 2008 - Passing Class As Argument For Function

Mar 23, 2010

VB.NET is not letting me dance with both feet, or piss with both hands. I've got one foot and one arm tied behind my back at every turn. I want to use this statement in a function:
Return CType(Formatter.Deserialize(FS), DS)
Seems doable, right?

Function ReadFileStream(ByRef FS As FileStream, ByRef DS As Object)
Dim Formatter As New BinaryFormatter
FS.Position = 0
Return CType(Formatter.Deserialize(FS), DS)
End Function

Right? I mean, CType only accepts a class name as the second argument. I can't give it an instance of a class, or it croaks. Yet if I try to pass the class name as the argument to that function:
DataInfo = ReadFileStream(FileStream1, DataStruct)

VB.NET croaks on this, too, complaining that "'DataStruct' is a type and cannot be used as an expression.". It's used as an expression by CType just fine outside of the function. Does the VB.NET legislature provide a clause that allows for a 'Type' to be passed as an argument in a function? Writing all the supporting code ten million times to deserialize a file using CType ten million times in a large application will get very complicated and tricky very quickly. It should be handled by a routine so that any cases and adjustments that come up can be dealt with in one spot.

Excel - Equivalent Of Optional Range Argument In VBA Function

Aug 31, 2009

I have an Excel VBA function that takes a number of optional parameters, including an optional Range:
Function DazBeta(A As Range, Z As Range, _
B As Integer, _
Optional Freq As Integer = 1, _
Optional c As Double = 0, _
Optional r As Range, _
Optional Pct As Boolean = True, _
Optional Label As Integer = 1)

I am translating to VB.NET, and it's the optional Range that is giving me grief because VB.NET does allow optional Ranges. Or rather, optional parameters must provide a default value. What is the recommended way to change the VB.NET function signature so that the code is callable from an Excel cell as a UDF? (The VB.NET implements a UDF, the assembly is registered as a COM server, and the Excel spreadsheet is told of this server and type library, allowing the VB.NET code to be called from an Excel spreadsheet cell.) I have other compilation problems, so I have not been able to explore this. I am thinking that accepting an optional Object (default value Nothing) might work and then I could cast the Object to a Range. Alternatively, if there were a default value that could be specified with an optional Range, that would work, too.

Returning Generic Type In .NET?

Mar 7, 2011

Someone (w69rdy) in Stack Overflow helped me out with a great example to handle DB output, that could potentially be NULL, passed into a function. The problem is I can understand the method as written in C# but I am having a problem understanding how to rewrite the method in VB.NET. The method uses generics and I am lost. Here is the method written in C# ..

public T ParseValue<T>(System.Data.SqlClient.SqlDataReader reader, string column)
{
T result = default(T);
if (!reader.IsDBNull(reader.GetOrdinal(column)))

[code].....

How is this written in VB.NET? How does the method signature change when returning a generic type?
