How To Copy An Object

Jul 10, 2004

How can I copy an object? When I use obj1 = oby2 I copy only the pointer. I know some objects have the methode .clone. But What's about the other ones? Some objects (for example a button) I can copy of course by creating a new object and set each property. (btn1.Left = btn2.Left) But that works rarly. And of course what's about my own classes? Is there now change to copy them like you can do it for example in C++...?

.net - Copy One Object To Another?

Feb 4, 2011

.net 3.5, VS 2010... this is for an asp.net website.I have an class called Agency. there is a second class called Agency_Queries. Agency_Queries inhertis the Agency class. I'm trying to create a function that will copy the like properties in Agency to Agency_Queries. I figured out how to do that.. but when i try to make it more generic so that i can pass in my class name and lists i'm doing something wrong.So if there is an list(of Agency) that needs to be copied to list(of Agency_Queries) i've got something like the following.

Dim AgencyS As List(Of Agency) = Nothing
Dim Oc As New Agency_Controller
AgencyS = Oc.GetAgencyData(0)

Asp.net - Copy Object Types ?

Jul 29, 2010

I am building an ASP.NET application that needs dynamic tables. That's another issue that I've already posted about (and gotten a pretty good response!). Now, I'm running into another issue - I want to add new rows to my table, but given that I will have 10-12 tables on one page, each containing different objects in their rows (text boxes, check boxes, etc.) I need a way of simply generically adding a new row that has the same objects as the first row in the table. Here's my code:

Private Sub AddTableRow(ByRef originalTable As System.Web.UI.WebControls.Table)

Dim originalRow As System.Web.UI.WebControls.TableRow = originalTable.Rows(1)
Dim insertingRow As New System.Web.UI.WebControls.TableRow[code]......

Stepping through with a debugger, I see that this strategy is working - but the additional table row still doesn't appear...and still does when I do this statically.

.net - Save A Copy Of An Object And Restore It Later

May 12, 2012

I have a form which has a ListView and buttons to add/edit/delete items from this list. It has a save & a cancel button. On pressing the cancel button, I want to revert all the changes that have been done in the current form. So, while loading the form I keep a copy of the original list like below.

backupMyListView = MyListView

In the cancel button code, I do the opposite.

MyListView = refMyListView

Whats happening is that, the original listview is never restored because everytime MyListView was updated, backupMyListView also was getting updated.

How do I restore the original ListView on pressing the cancel button?

Add Object To Collection (copy Not Reference)?

Mar 27, 2009

i have a user define object which i'm initializing with data from external datafiles.... the purpose of this object is to reduce the amount of disk/data access and processing required every time i need to add an instance of this object to a collection.so, whenever i add a copy of this object to a collection, i would simply reference the "base" object, and avoid having to process all the data and perform the conversion and so on...the issue is when i add the object

Collection.add(Base_Object, Key)

the collection ITEM is a Reference to the base object and not a copy.

Copy A Form Object To A Variable?

Jan 8, 2009

Is there any method or a way to copy a form object to a variable? Let me explain this - We have a method called "Copy" for the Dataset class & you all must be knowing that there is a difference between the below two lines of code: DsTemp = Ds DsTemp = Ds.Copy()

In the first line of code, any changes made to Ds will reflect in DsTemp. However, in the second line of code, any changes made to Ds will not reflect in DsTemp because we are only "copying" the contents & schema of Ds. Likewise is there a method or a work around to "copy" a Form object?

Copy An Object Of An Unknown Type?

Jul 29, 2010

Rather than giving the very specific case (which I did earlier), let me give a general example. Let's say that I have a function, called callingFunction. It has one parameter, called parameter. Parameter is of an unknown type. Let us then say that I wish to copy this parameter, and return it as a new object. For example, in pseudo code, something along the lines of...

[Code]...

EDIT: Additional Information The first time I posted this question, I received only one response - I felt that perhaps I made the question too specific. I guess I will explain more, I have an ASP page with 10 tables on it. I am trying, using the VB code behind, to come up with a single solution to add new rows to any table. When the user clicks a button, a generic "add row" function should be called.

The difficulty lies in the fact that I have no guarantee of the contents of any table. A new row will have the same contents as the row above it, but given that there are 10 tables, 1 row could contain any number of objects - text boxes, check boxes, etc. So I want to create a generic object, make it of the same type as the row above it, then add it to a new cell, then to a new row, then to the table.

Copy User-Defined Class Object?

Mar 12, 2010

I would like to make a "deep copy" of a class object that I have defined. See Visual Basic 2005 Code below

Dim MyStuff1 as new MyClass
Dim MyStuff2 as new MyClass
mystuff1.getbyID(anID)
mystuff2 = mystuff1

Unfortunately the statement "mystuff2 = mystuff1" makes a "shallow copy" of mystuff1. Therefore, if mystuff1 is redefined then so is mystuff2. What do I have to do in MyClass to implement a deep copy method such that operations on mystuff1 and mystuff2 are independent?I would prefer something like

mystuff1.deepcopy(mystuff2)
or
mystuff2 = mystuff1.deepcopy()

Deep Copy - Is Object Returned By Reference From Function ?

Aug 5, 2011

If I instantiate an object within a function in VB.NET and return it, does it return it be reference or by value. IE - should I be worried about performance if I write something like this:

Public Function ret_obj_func() As big_object
Dim ret_obj As New big_obj(<lots of stuff>)
Return ret_obj
End Function

If I call this function from somewhere else, will it instantiate the object in the ret_obj and then create a deep copy to pass back a copy to the caller, Or will it just pass back a reference?

Copy List Object To Another List Object

Jun 15, 2012

I am having a problem when setting VB.NET list object to another.I create an instance on ReadLocations and than create an object of ReadLocation where then I loop through ReadLocations and set ReadLocation1 equal to rl. What happens is that if I then go and change ReadLocation1 to something else (assdfhsd) it will also change the ReadLocations index. I am really confused why it would be doing that unless it is "=" sign means referencing instead of actually setting the value. Please help as I am a C# developer but the program I am modifying is in VB.NET.[code]

C# - Copy Object Of Type AA To An Empty Variable Of Type BB?

Feb 15, 2010

Writing an asp.net mvc app and i have something like this...

Public Class AA
'... has some variables...
End Class
Public Class BB

[code]....

So, now in my program, i just want to copy object of type AA to an empty variable of type BB?it makes sense to do this, as i expect all the fields in AA type object to be copied to the newly created BB type object, and the ExtraVariable in the BB type object i would (will) just assign a value to it later (after the copy) on my own time!!I know copying BB type to AA type would not be appropriate as there would be lost data!But im trying to copy AA to BB, I've used both DirectCast and CType to do this, and i keep getting "unable to cast" error!

Note: I'm using vb.net (but can read c#, no problems)

Flattening An Object Hierarchy Using A Shim Class - Initializing Derived Object Properties From The Base Object?

Jul 10, 2010

I am somewhat new to object oriented programming and am attempting to flatten a Linq object hierarchy by using a shim class.how to initalize a derived class with property values from a base class?I have two objects, a base object with about 100 properties, and a derived object which inherits from the base object and adds a few additional properties beyond those of the base object. My simple constructor creates the derived object, but I am looking for a way to initialize the derived object properties with values from the base object.Right now I am using reflection to iterate over the properties individually and I suspect there may be a better way. The following example shows my shim class constructor for the derived class, and two properties:

newProperty1 - a new string property of the derived class

flattenedProperty2 - a new string property of the derived class, copied from a 2nd-level object of the base class

Code example:

Public Class derivedObj
Inherits baseObj
Private _newProperty1 As String[code].......

Is this the correct constructor approach to flatten the object hierarchy using a shim class? My second question relates to initialization of properties in the derived class. The constructor above creates the derived object, but what is the best way to initialize the derived object properties with values from the base object? The following code uses reflection to iterate over the properties individually, but I suspect there may be a better way.

Code example:

' property names are in the string array fieldNames

'baseObjQuery is an ienumerable of baseObj

'derivedObjList is a list of derivedObj[code].....

Is there a simple way to initialize values for the properties in the derived object based upon the values of the common properties in the base object?

Shallow Copy And Deep Copy

Dec 1, 2010

As I understand it a shallow copy is like a CLONE copy of an object where the values for each property are independent of one another whereas a DEEP copy is a copy that uses the same memory locations and therefore if you change a value in one it is also shown in the second item ( By Reference to the same memory locations ).So my main question is, when dealing with CLASSEs, STRUCTUREs etcetera containing REFERENCE types.is there anyway to quickly create a CLONE or shallow copy of an OBJECT or not ? The only way I can think of is to put the item into a one dimensional array and use the CLONE method for an array. [code]
