I have a class "Character" that holds character stats and skills. I make a new instance of it "MyCharacter". The problem is I would like to use it like this.
MyCharacter.stat.charactername ="whatever"
Where stat is another class within Character or
MyCharacter.skill.lockpick=10, b
But I can't seem to do it.
Is there any way to make a class instance public?In my mainform I define an instance of a certain class and then later on in some other forms which appear I want to alter this class.I try and pass them through when creating new instances of these other forms and it tells me Error3<instance of the class I want> cannot expose type <the class> outside the project through class <the form I want to edit it with>Which I gather from documentation is about it defeating the purpose to have a private class suddenly be thrown aroudn.but then how do I make it public? I can't define it in the first place as public myXClass as XClass, it only accepts private.
View 6 RepliesI have a class inside a class.I need to expose the properties of the 2nd class to other classes, therefore it is public.However, I do not wish other classes to be able to create instances of this 2nd class, it should only be instantitated from its parent class.I thought I could resolve this issue by making the constructor of the 2nd class private, but this even prevents the parent class from instantiating its child class! How can I work around this, do I have to make the constructor public and allow anybody to create an instance of the class?

View 1 RepliesI want to created a nested class that can only be visible to and instantiated from the parent class.But I also want to be able to use an instance of the nested class through a public variable of the parent class.I tried making the nested class private, or making the nested class' constructor private, but it won't compile.Is it possible to do this in .NET?

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 ?

If you run this code you will see that the 500 PictureBoxes that are added ( this is easier to show than adding pixels as a pixel is only a single point ) fall mainly on the diagonal.With regard the RANDOM class, why should this be like this when the bounds of the instances are? >>
p.Location = New Point(x.Next(0, Me.Width + 1
), y.Next(0, Me.Height + 1 ))
as in this code.>>

I've createda vb.net class library where I've defined a number of small classes... nothing complicated, just working with strings, sending emails, etc.In another project, I reference the class library and I'm seemingly able to create an instance ofone of tclasses - intellisense shows me all of the plic properties, methods, etc... all looks perfect. No compile errors at all, nothing b gumdropsand lollipops.When I run the app I'm working on that references the class library, it fails at the point where I'm creating an instance of the class and gives me a vague exception, "System.TypeLoadException".

View 5 RepliesI need to create a new instance of a class that needs a member of the calling class. But i can't pass a reference to the calling class through the constructor.The solution i am looking for is something like this:
Public Class ChildClass
Public Sub New(args)
_MyMember = GetMemberFromCallingClass()

I want this to work without having to manually pass any references or variables from the calling class to the new instance of ChildClass.
I want to create a class that will "search" for something. Basically I load up the "search item" when the class is created and inside the class is logic to do the "search". The result of this logic will be more "searches" that I want to start. How can I have the logic in the class create another instance of the class itself?

this used to be so easy in C++ and VB6 I am dynamically creating multiple instances of a fairly simple class, tracking them via the Collections class in vb.net. I loop through the collection if I need to get to a particular instance to set some property, for example. Everything is fine, and works ok until I try to destroy the instances that I created (largely because I am probably not doing it right). What I am doing setting the instance to "nothing". That is, here is the portion of the code:

Lets Say you have a Class
Public Class ExampleClass
Private _Name As String = "Unnamed"
Private _Value As Object = Nothing

In a program that I'm putting together, I have a small class and in the program, I add instances of that class to a List(Of [that class]).Later in the program I test whether or not that list contains a particular instance of the class, but it fails to return true when I've proven that it's in there. I've since set up an iteration routine where it finds it, but it has me puzzled why the ".Contains" will not locate it.
My question is simple: When I have a List where I add an instance of a structure or class, does it not actually examine the contents of the structure or class inside it?
how to set string content as a class instance name?Example. I have an INI-class with many instances like .Path, .Width, etc. Now, i'm reading my ini-file string by string wich hase been written by template:
[code...]
I would like to automate reading an assignment at ONCE. Like cutting the first word in line and setup it as my INI-class instance name.I know how to cut first word, but have no idea, how to set this string as instance name.
my aim is to create a new instance box at the push of a button, the box has strings name and Id to be filled concatenating the auto generated ID i.e. 0 to 210 plus a string "Box" added by the user. I had problems earlier creating a structure within the class box, frankly I am not sure if the code below will work, as i try to run it in VB I get an error indicating that I am using the variables strBoxPositions() and strBoxNumbers() without assigning a value to it. The thing is the strBoxPositions() should automatically be filled by arrPosition() which will be created at the same time the new object box is created and the strNumbers() will be created with empty strings to be filled at latter stage by the used as and when necessary.
how could I initialise those arrays to get the program to run and perhaps ill be able to see if the code works or not, or just correct this code with a better way of code with comments, also if possible some indication on how could I update the strNumbers array inputing the strings one at a time on a text box field.
Public class form1
Public Class Box
Public intBoxID As Integer

i have
VariableA as Class1
Variable1 as string
Variable1 = "VariableA"
I want to be able to use Variable1 to get access to VariableA(?).

But like this:
Variable1.Property1 = "test"
Am a geriatric coming back to programming after a decade's rest. Keeping it very simple. An empty form. As the form loads, create a Black button (OK) and also create a class which itself creates a single Cyan button. Am using VB 2010 Express.

CustomLineCap does not have the SerializableAttribute applied to it. I want to add a property of this type to an object graph that is currently being serialized/deserialized with a BinaryFormatter. I tried switching to XML serialization but it has a bunch of extra requirements and I don't want to fool with that esp. since it's not my code; it's some open source I downloaded. If there's a way to get BinaryFormatter to ignore the property, that might work. I'd rather subclass it; I just don't know if that will work either.
