How To Group Functions In An ASP.NET Class
Jul 30, 2009
I currently have a VB.NET class named "Customers" and it's been steadily growing in size and I now have a couple dozen functions in it. Is there a way of maintaining the functions in the same class? Since they still use common private methods, but group them by similarity.[code]I guess I wasn't clear on where I wanted this grouping to occur. I want the groupings to be almost like namespaces/classes in IntelliSense when I use my Customer class.I currently use Regions but they only help when seeing the code, not when using the class.

What I am trying to do is have a class where the functions of the same name are both instance functions and shared functions.
Public Shared Function Get...(byval xx as xx)
and
Public Function Get...
The Public Function uses a Property xx created in the constructor, whereas the Shared Function has the parameters (byval xx as xx).

I need to create unit testing project for my current website. The currentw ebsite si written in VB. All unit testing examples are using interface to create mock object. My current VB class does not implment any interface. Can I add interface and implement it to my current class and functions without affecting or changing codes to any pages in my website that call the functions? For examples my current class is like:

Is there a way to call functions within a class upon instantiation of that same class? Basically, I have functions within a class, but I want to automatically call some of those functions simply when there is an instance of the class created.
Basically, I have this structure:
Dim instance as new class
instance.function1
instance.function2
[Code].....

This is my first major application using multiple classes. It is written in vb and I know about creating objects of the class and using that instance to call functions of the class. But how do I create an object with constructors to allow another program written in C# to access my classes and functions and accept things from the program.

I am currently trying to write classes so that I can access certain functions from any form within my VB project.
My class is defined thus:-
Public Class testclass
Public Function showmes()
MsgBox("Hello everyone"")
Return 0
End Function
End Class
I have added the class into my form using this at the top in the form:
Imports WindowsApplication1.testclass
Obviously, WindowsApplication1 being the name of my project, testclass being within a VB file, saved with my project.
I have attempted to call the function from the form using this:
Private Sub Button3_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button3.Click
showmes()
End Sub
However I am getting the error "Reference to a non-shared member requires an object reference." I don't understand why there is a problem, since I have used imports to reference the class.

if anyone knows if I can get a listing of all of the sub/functions in a class/module. Just the definitions (That is, the name, paramaters etc., but not the code).

I have large group of functions that I would like to store in basically a library and simply call the functions from the controls on my forms. Back in VB 6 I would have done this with a module, but now I have been told that a Public Class is the correct way in .NET. How should I go about doing this?

I have recently started learning VB.NET. I created a simple 3 tier windows application. The DAL project contains a class with a number of functions. In the BLL project, I've added a reference to the DAL project, but I still can't access the functions in the DAL class from the BLL. However, if I change the DAL class to a module, I can access them then. Both the DAL class and its functions are public.

This is very basic about the layout of classes, subs etc. 1. Should all my subs & functions always be inside a class? I haven't used classes too much before, mostly just a bunch of subs in a form file. Now I downloaded a sample program which I want to develop. This has all the code of the form inside "Public Class Form1": [Code] The code is an example of use of the ZedGraph library. It produce a simple window with one graph/chart. Now I want to develop this code with several tabs, a dusin different charts, file I/O and so on. I'm ok with most of the specific coding, but my question is on the general coding;
2. Should I continue my subs&functions inside this form? inside this class? inside a new class? Earlier when I've NOT been using class, I can make global variables by placing the "Dim" outside the subs. This does not seem to work within a class. 3. Should I avoid global variables all together, or how is this done without always passing arguments?
Also I will make more forms, for program options etc. 4. Should these forms be coded as classes? or just subs&functions in a form? Obviously I'm not well trained on the proper use of classes and have trouble to find this easily explained.

i am comfortable with class, namespace ,Sub ,Function ,Properties ...and so on. i studied about Custom Controls and Extension methods. There i found something new so called Attribute that are placed before classes and Functions definitions.[code...]

I want to see if there is a way to do this... I'm Using vs2010 with the WP7 SDK. (VB.NET)
I am declaring this in the global scope.
public objGame as object then say i have classes: Game1 and Game2 for the sake of the example we'll just say both classes have an Update() function
I want to set objGame = Game1 (or Game2) and then be able to call objGame.Update()

The project requires a form that has textboxes for a students name and the amount of books they have read, and a label where the points they have earned for their reading is displayed. Also a seperate form with About information and yet another seperate form for summary information.

I'm wondering how I can go about creating something like a header file to contain some verbose functions I don't want to have to look at after I get them created. Something like in c++ like..
#include "classfunctions.h" to hide all the nasty stuff you don't want anyone to see.

Suppose I want to build a class like
Class MyClass inherit Something
Dim A as string Bim B as integer
End Class When I am writing code, and i want to use thesenew properties or fields, the intellisense shows me the new properties and fields mixed with those inherited. Is there a way to show them all grouped togheter separated from those inherited ( a part giving them a common prefix in the name)?

When referencing class properties from a function within the class do you use the value from the actual property or the private variable value?
public class
private m_Foo as double
public property Foo() as double

I have recently come across some code that has the following. First there is a Interface with the following function Function Validate() As Boolean. That interface is then implemented in the an 'ABSTRACT' class like this.
Public MustOverride Overloads Function Validate() As Boolean Implements IBusinessEntity.Validate
Question 1: Why use Overloads in the Abstract class implementation.
Question 2: The Abstract class is then inherited into a class (TestClass). In TestClass the Validate function is implemented as follows Public Overloads Overrides Function Validate() As Boolean. I understand the Overrides keyword is to insure that this is the version of the Validate that you want called and not the Abstract class version but why again use the keyword Overloads?
From what I understand you can overload a constructor of a class by simply changing the constructor signature. Also, you overload Methods and Properties of a class by using the Keyword Overloads. But why do it when your implementing an Interface method, or an Abstract Class method that's inherited.

I have a number of unrelated subs and functions that do various things on my server (e.g. Lighting control, data caching, server maintenance, etc). They are all in various classes which I have coalesced into a single solution.My goal is to create a single, simple interface which each of these disparate classes can be integrated and called from a command line interface. Instead of hard-coding a longish case statement which parses arguments and passes them to the various subs, I wanted to make a generic class which can be instantiated with a minimum of information and put into a data structure. Ideally, adding a new function would involve:
1.) Providing the function pointer (Delegate). The delegates will have various signatures. This is the crux of the question.
2.) Providing ancillary info such as the command-line callable name, number of arguments, argument types, etc.
I have a 100% working class called "node" which is basically a hierarchical tree of node instances. I can use this to simply organize function calls in related branches. All is working quite well.NodeFunctionDelegate(ByVal args As String) As String.The node takes the arguments passed to it by the command line and sends it as the "args" string as comma-separated. The delegate function then needs to know how to split up these comma-separated values, type them, tryparse them and etc. It then must return some string.It works, but it involves writing a middle-man function stub which can receive the argument string from the node class, do the parsing and type checking, and then call the destination function.My goal is to eliminate this trivial middle-man function. The problem is, I can't figure out how to create a variable-signature delegate for the node class.

I would like to understand the Pro & Cons in using the commonly used methods via Singleton class against Shared (Static) members of a class in VB.Net. It could be in terms Time, Space complexity or best practices. I have a BankAccount class with methods doing some business logic.
GetBalance()
GetLast5Credits()
GetMiniStatement()

I've got a BaseDataClass with shared fields and functions
CODE:
I have several classes that derive from this base class. The derived classes have all Shared functions that can be called directly from the BLL with no instantiation. The functions in these derived classes call the base Init(), call their specific stored procs, call the base CleanAll() and then return the results.
So if I have 5 derived classes with 10 functions each, totaling 50 possible function calls, since they are all Shared, the CLR only calls one at a time, right? All calls are queued to wait until each Shared function completes.
Is there a better design with having Shared functions in your DAL and still have base class functions? Or since I have a base class, is it better to move towards instance methods within the DAL?

making a general functions class library that will be used in several applications and asp pages, sometimes running at the same time.I've looked at a lot of samples on the web and they all show you to create an instance of the classlibrary namespace or the classlibrary class.
IE.
dim obj2 as new mycompany.mynamespace.myclass
dim n2 as integer
n2 = obj2.somefunction(...)
What I did was create my class library and put a class in it and declared a function as sharred, then created my dll.I don't have to create an instance of it and I can use it like the net framework by just coding
n2 = mycompany.mynamespace.myclass.somefunction(...).
The net framework does this, I mean once I imports it I don't have to make an instance of it in every function.All the samples I've seen about class libraries do not use the shared keyword.

I am trying to get a handle on SyncLock and multithreading, but I am having some trouble wrapping my head around exactly how it should be implemented. I have a Public Class Utilities with a many Shared Functions. I want to make sure that each function can only be executed when there are no other concurrent calls to the same function. So If I have 2 functions, A and B in a Public Class Utilities, what is the syntax so that a function "locks" while it is being executed, preventing any subsequent calls until the "locking" thread has completed?
CODE
Public Class Utilities
Public Shared Function A (ByRef i As Integer) As Integer
[CODE].............................
I know I need to wrap the statements of execution in a SyncLock block, but I am unsure of the scope of the parameter used with SyncLock...is it private to the function, class, etc? Can the same object be used to lock both functions if they are independent?

how to implement UI, BL and DAL in a project the way that I see it as a requirement for some projects. The way I am able to do a project now is from a form create an object of a class in which there are properties and functions that do database selects, updates and deletes. Looks to me that doing a project like that is separating the UI from the DAL. In an update button click event I may call Obj. Delete (txtCustID.txt) for example. I don't understand the part of further breaking it down to include a Business layer; in which a vb solution is made up of three solutions.What goes in the BL?Does the BL call the DAL?

Namespace MyClassLib
Public Class MainClass
Public Sub New()

Is it possible to make it so that the user using the Class Library has to declare a new Instance of MainClass() before using Subs/Functions in Class2 or Class3?

For greater accuracy I should use a Decimal instead of a Double ( so I've been told ). Why then have Microsoft chosen to use DOUBLE for most of the functions that return a floating point value in the Math Class?

1) Is it possible to access the Excel mathematical functions without actually opening Excel?
I was thinking of through a DLL WinAPI call or maybe a delegate function or smaller program?
2) Does anyone know of a MS link or area that gives instruction on "how to" use every function of every Windows DLL at all?
Or for all those that Microsoft have chosen to document online at least.
