How To Get All Class Properties By Type
Mar 19, 2012
How can I get all the properties of a class that implement a specific base class or interface? I have a properties class that contains several other property classes. Some, not all, of these classes implement an interface. I would like to know if it's possible to iterate over all properties of parent class for child-classes that implement the target interface. It sounds like a job for reflection? I'm just not sure how. Can it be done via the "PropertyInfo" object?

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?

This 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".

I wanted to define a property which accepts decimal numbers and do some process on the value and return string such as the below:
Public Property Amount() As String
Get
Return Utility.PaddingRight(Me.msAmount.ToString(), 10)
End Get
[code]....
But compilers warns "Set parameters must have the same type of the containing property."It doesn't look like it should throws an error since it looks legit.

I have a class in which some of the fields are also classes.I can put values in the "normal" properties, but in the others when o try to assign values it gives the: "Object reference not set to an instance of an object"But the code compiles fine.
dados_Defenicao = New ServiceReference1.draftClaimEntryDefinition
dados_Defenicao.arCode = "123"
dados_Defenicao.claimMarket.warrantyType = "w" - Here it gives the error
How can i fix this ?

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.

I wrote a function that copies the properties of one class to another so make a copy of an object.So something like
MyObject myObject = myOtherObject.MyCustomCopy(myObject)
where myObject and myOtherObject are of the same type. I do it by bascually doing
myObject.prop1 = myOtherObject.prop1
[code]....
I am pretty sure in the past I used a .NET object that automaticaly did this, by reflection I guess, but can't remember it ... or an I imagining that such a method exists?

Unable to cast COM object of type 'System.__ComObject' to class type 'rjsDocMan.Folder'.Instances of types that represent COM components cannot be cast to types that do not represent COM components; however they can be cast to interfaces as long as the underlying COM component supports QueryInterface calls for the IID of the interface.The code where it is flagging the error is:
<div style="color: Black; background-color: White;">
treeview += AddChildren(Session("DocMan").RootFolder)
</div>

1) VB Allows non-type template parameters2) VB supports explicit specialization 3) VB allows the type parameters to be used as the base class for the generic type4) VB allows a generic type parameter itself to to be a generic 5) VB enforces that all codes are valid for all types of parametrs

I suspect I am being very silly here but I have the following setup
Class MustInherit myBaseClass
'some stuff
End Class
Class myInheritedClassA
[code]....
Running this results in the following error
Unhandled Exception: System.InvalidOperationException:
There was an error generating the XML document. --->
System.InvalidOperationException:
[code]....
is there any way of 'Widening' the inherited class to the base class so this would work?
EDIT:regarding XmlInclude(typeof inheritedClass), currently this method could potentially return a number of types of inherited class (i.e myInheritedClassA and myInheritedClassB) is it case of simply having to add each of the inheritedTypes in this tag?

I have a class that hosts inside other classes that can host otherclases as well and so on.
I want to change the value of one property (PropertyA) in all classes down the tree.
How can i do that when i dont know the the type of class inside?
How can i iterate through the classes hostes as proeprty of the mother class?
I am trying to use reflection but i get just the properties of the first class

I am trying to figure out how to get at an anonymous typed object's properties, when that anonymous type isn't created in the current function.
Specifically, I am binding an ASP.NET ListView to LINQ resultset, then trying to process each item in the ItemDataBound event.
Option Explicit On
Option Strict On
Class MyPageClass

If I have a complex structure which contains properties which are both simple and complex types, how can I iterate over all the properties of this structure and any child properties which are not simple types?
I have a complex type called file, which contains lots of string properties and some which are other complex types which contain similar structures, eventually the whole structure breaks down into strings.
At the moment my code looks like this:
Dim file As New File
Dim props() As PropertyInfo = file.GetType.GetProperties()
_propList = New CheckBoxList
[Code].....
This works, but it is ugly and I am not at all happy with certain chunks, specifically the type comparisons to establish if this is a date, string, decimal or boolean which are the potential low level types which I want to get out.
In C# it would seem these type comparisons are easier, but i seem to have to create an instance of a given type to be able to use GetType to return its type.

as you might guess from the variable names I'm making a game (but this problem isn't game related!) which involves multiple "bullets" moving along straight trajectories. This is my attempt at changing my code for firing one bullet into one for firing many bullets at once. It works perfectly except for one thing.The class I made (BulletClass) to contain all the things needed to move the bullet isn't setting all of its properties correctly. I apologise for the walls of code however I wasn't entirely sure whether I should chop bits out. I wanted to colour code my code so that you could scroll through and see the subs where things have gone wrong, but apparently I can't even code a new thread. Let alone a video game. Instead I'll just list them, you can search for them if you like or just scroll through at your leisure.
[Code]...
In a nutshell: the properties TargetPosY, TargetPosX, ShipPosX and ShipPoseY are not working properly. As a result the calculations involving them are skewed and the bullets always travel directly downward.

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've got a Dictionary collection of a certain class with dozens of string properties.i'd like to create a datatable from this info and map these properties into Datatable columns, and for each member of the dictionary maps it to a row...
i could type out column names based on the class properties, but thats a bit specific and hard coded.
What I want to do is something like
Dim mytable as datatable For each string_property as property of myclass Dim column as new datacolumn(string_property.name) 'column add to table etc Next I'm unfamiliar with how to do this, maybe the Reflection classes are useful - perhaps the guru's can point out an efficient solution?

I've tried searching... a lot for the answer, but as I'm not too sure what exactly I'm trying to do I can't seem to find anything. I'm trying to write a dll in order to handle errors thrown from a vb.net app. In the dll I need several forms (I'm not totally sure if they can have forms - I'm a bit of a newbie when it comes to dll's) for which the user can type in their message about the error and submit it.

I have dynamic class with varied numbers of property. At one time I need to save all data from this class. So, to do the For/Next or Do/Loop, I need to know, how many properties in class for now? Is it possible to findout the property numbers and after - property names list?
For example. I have a class INI, were was .Path as preexisted property. Then the few properties has been added and INI start consist of .Path, .Size, .Color and something else.
I dont want to keep in mind all properties has been added. All I want to get some simple loop to read all properties names and values to dump it to the file. Some sort of this[code]...

Whats the best way to iteract through a class to get all the properties names? So far i have this code
Dim classInstance As New ServiceReference1.draftClaimEntryDefinition
For Each PropertyItem As PropertyInfo In classInstance.GetType().GetProperties()
Dim strPropName As String = String.Empty[code]....
My problem is: I will receive a xml file, and have to get the data in a class, but as mentioned before the class has a lot of classes as properties, and i want do do it without hardcode, I want to loop the class properties names and compare them to the xml tags (it haves the same name as the class properties), and put the values from the xml file in an instance object of the class.

I have this class
Code:
Public Class Customer
Public Property AccountNumber() As String
Public Property AccountCreationDate() As String
[code].....
This works but I tried to loop thru the properties of the class with a For Each/Next loop. It does not work as the intellisense won't co-operate with Items I think i need like "PropertyInfo" . After reading, I see that only thru Reflection can I do this. Well, Reflection has me baffled at the moment.

I have a property grid and I want to be able to set the selectedobject to a class. The class contains properties. This is what I have, but it 'OtherFiles' is not an object.
