.net - Class Definition Properties Or Methods?
Aug 4, 2010I have a class definition that I've seen other define properties that return collections of objects.
Public Property GetAllAdults() as Adults End Property I made the argument that this should be a method in the class, because it doesn't define an attribute of the class, and could not be extended with parameters. Is/Are there reasons why this should be defined as a property vs. a function?

View 2 RepliesCan't Access Class Library Methods / Properties When Referenced As A DLL
Oct 15, 2009I've created a class library and built a dll (release build). I've then referenced the DLL in another project (I've tried several). I can see the namespace and classes in Object Browser and I can declare instances of the classes but I cannot use or see any of the methods or properties! there is no IntelliSense whatsoever and calling the methods manualy results in a 'Declaration expected' error.
Within the class library solution I have a unit test project referencing the class library project which works all works fine (and all the tests pass).
Can anyone provide any pointers to what might be going wrong here? I've built plenty of dlls in the past and have had no trouble referencing them at all.[code]...
Hide Methods/properties Of Class-library (dll) From Visual Studio's IntelliSense?
Mar 3, 2009I am writing my first class-library in VB.NET. My idea is to distribute this library so others may use it in their applications.However, perhaps due to my lack of experience in writing and structuring the library and the classes therein, I noted that the methods/properties are ALL being shown in the IntelliSense of Visual Studio.
The thing is that many of them are only used within the library itself and should NOT be used by the developers (could create a disaster) when they incorporate my library in their application - only a few should be visibile i.e. the ones which are needed by the developer.Thus, my question is: is there a way to hide certain methods/properties of my library from Visual Studio's IntelliSense? Maybe something similar to REM?
EDIT: as mentioned - this is my first library and I now understand that my question could be intepreted in two ways:
1) how to hide something from IntelliSense
2) how to prevent a developer from using and calling certain methods/properties
Of course, the end-result that I want is that the developer is not able to access AT ALL certain methods/properties i.e. No. 2 above.
Custom Class As An Array Of Properties?
Sep 30, 2009I'm moving my first steps in the VB.NET world (I come from VB6) and I'm stuck with the creation of a particular class.
Let's say we have a bus that always has 101 places. I'm trying to create a class containing the map of the bus, along with methods to graphically represent it.
My "Bus" class will have a couple of properties ("BusColor", "BusModel") related to the whole bus. Then it should have a property called "Places" whose type is a custom class thet represents every single place, along with, for example, the passenger name or the place number. This property should of course be an array.
This is my code so far (simplified):
Public Class BusMap
Private Const MAX_PLACES As Integer = 101
Private _BusModel As String = ""
[Code]....
but I wonder if there is a more standard way of doing this.
My second question is: how can I modify my class to be able to iterate its Places property with the "for each" statement? A quick search on the web showed up that I should implement the IEnumerable interface, but I'm still not enough confident with the concept of Interfaces.
.net - Not Retaining Changes Made To Values Of Properties In A Custom Class?
Jun 10, 2011I created this function to remove vbCrLf from the values of properties in a Custom Class:(vTransaction)
Public Function ValidateTransaction(ByRef vTransaction)
Dim property1 As String
Dim value1 As String
For Each p As System.Reflection.PropertyInfo In vTransaction.GetType().GetProperties()
If p.CanRead Then
[Code]...
Throughout testing I can verify that vbCrLf is being replaced with a space as expected. When I re-examine vTransaction the changes have not been retained and the vbCrlf's are still there. What do I need to do to retain the changes being made to values in vTransaction.
How To Bind Custom Class With No Strongly Typed Properties
Mar 10, 2009I need a simple class with only one Public property and no Public methods (the final Class will be more complex, but for testing this is all I need). The Property is "Item" and takes a "String" as a parameter. It returns a "String" based on the parameter. I then want be able to add instances of this object to a List or Array, and then Bind it to a Repeater or a ListView......most importantly, I want to be able to then refer to values in my simple Class via the Eval function:
<%# Eval("SomeIDString**") %>**.
I can't Bind at all unless I declare the Item property as the Default property...why?
When I use "Eval", I get an error in the lines of "[some property] does not exists". indeed it doesn't, because everything is accessed via the Item property. it then does works if I replace "Eval" with "Container.DataItem". Is there a way to use Eval instead of Container.DataItem? I would rather not have my class inherit any other classes because I want to keep it clean from supurfulous properties and/or methods.
Are there interfaces I need to implement? Also, the reason I want to use Eval, is that as much as possible, I want to make the use of this Class simple, so the coder doesn't need to worry about special cases. I just want it to work, much like the DataTable Class, but with a much simpler, lighter-weight implementation.
VS 2008 Custom Class Called CustomItem That Holds Name And 'SomeProperty' Properties
Apr 22, 2009Let's say I have a custom class called CustomItem that holds the Name and 'SomeProperty' properties:[code]Now, on the click of a Button, I want to select the CustomItem whose SomeProperty is equal to "Property 4". Of course, this is just "Item 4", but the names and properties are not that correlated in the real application than they are in this example.I have spent ages a long time ago figuring out how to do this. I could not directly set the SelectedItem, because I first need to get the CustomItem that actually matches my condition (SomeProperty = "Property 4"). My solution was to use a loop, looping through each item in the ListBox, and setting the SelectedItem when the right property has been found.[code]Now, is this the correct way to approach this problem? Is the LINQ query correct, or can it be done easier, without the casting? Also, is the LINQ query faster than the For loop, especially for a large amount of items? I expect it to be, but I don't know how to test this.

Making Class Methods Instead Of Instance Methods In .NET?
Mar 29, 2010I am not sure how clear my question is by the title, but I am trying to make Class methods instead of Instance methods in Visual Basic that way I don't have to waste memory and code creating temporary objects to execute methods that don't need instance variables.
I am not sure if you can do that in VB but I know you can in Objective-C by using either a "+" or "-" sign in front of the method declaration. And in C++ (at least I think, I can't remember) you put the static keyword or const keyword in front of the function.How would I do this in VB if it is possible? Or should I just make a separate set of functions that are not members of a class?

View 3 RepliesParameter Descriptions For Custom Methods?
Jun 16, 2010This is more of a user-proofing and aesthetics questions,Whenever we call a method in the .NET framework that requires parameters (most of them), as we're typing the parameters we wish to pass, Intellisense not only tells us the parameter type we need to enter, but it also gives us a brief description of what the parameter is.
Is there any way that we can include that same functionality in the methods that we write?

View 1 RepliesCan't Inherit Shared Properties From A Base Class In A Child Class?
Dec 29, 2010This is another one of my "I think it's not possible but I need confirmation" questions.I have a base class for a bunch of child classes. Right now, this base class has a few common properties the children use, like Name. The base is an abstract class (MustInherit)Technically, this means that everytime a child class is instantiated, it lugs around, in memory, its own copy of Name. The thing is, Name is going to be a fixed value for all instances of a given child. I.e., Child1.Name will return "child_object1", and Child2.Name will return "child_object2".
