I'm new to VB.Net. I'm using a library call setInstance(ByVal instance As UInteger) in my VB.Net code. The parameter I need to pass is an Integer. Is there anything I need to do to convert the integer parameter to an unsigned integer? The number is garunteed to be positive and less than 10.

In VB.NET, it is entirely possible to pass an integer as a string parameter to a method without calling .ToString() - it's even possible to call .ToString without the ()'s. The code will run without a problem, VB will interpret the integer as a string without having been told to. In C#, these would cause compilation errors - you are required to call .ToString() and to call it correctly in that situation before it will compile. Is there a way to make the VB compilation process check for the same things as the C# compilation process? Would it be best practice in a mixed team to force this check?
View 3 Repliesi want to use an unsigned 32 bit integer. According to [URL]the rage of that type is
UInteger
UInt32
4 bytes
0 through 4,294,967,295 (unsigned)

How can I implement a two's complement in VB.NET using unsigned integer types such as Byte, UShort, UInteger and ULong? Can I cast a UInteger to an Integer?
View 1 RepliesI have an application that deals with some rather large number values. I wanted the values to allow a roll over so I compiled the program with Remove Integer Overflow Checks turned on. The 32 bit numbers roll over just fine but the 64 bit unsigned integers still throw an over flow exception. Is this a bug in the compiler?
View 7 RepliesI need to parse a binary stream in .NET to convert a 16 byte unsigned integer. I would like to use the BinaryReader.ReadUIntXX() functions but there isn't a BinaryReader.ReadUInt128() function available. I assume I will have to roll my own function using the ReadByte function and build an array but I don't know if this is the most efficient method?
View 3 RepliesI have been trying to compute the checksum for a line of hex code. This is to create a hex file which will be loaded onto an embedded micro.Some of you guys may not know how this is done so very briefly:
a line of hex bytes:
: 10 01 00 00 21 46 01 36 01 21 47 01 36 00 7E FE 09 D2 19 01 40
The underlined bytes are taken and summed. (in this case the decimal 960). and the bold is the checksum Only the 8LSB (or single least significant byte) is needed to compute the checksum... which in this case, 960 = 03C0 in hex, so only C0 is needed.Two's complement is then taken:
step 1) logical not of C0 which is
step 2) add one (integer)
BIN...........DEC...HEX
[code]....
So here is the code I have been using: (quick mention that in the string passed, the hex bytes are all grouped together, there are no space characters)
Public Sub CreateLine(ByVal Data As String)
'Dim BDataArray(DataLength) As Byte
Dim IDataArray(Data.Length) As Integer
[code]....
where i get into trouble is where i commented 'i get into trouble'. My code works, but it's rather crude Now, in that line i first convert the hex value (string) "SChecksum" into an integer. I want to NOT this, so I get my step 2 from my explanation. However, the results appears to be a signed logical NOT. which gives me the wrong answer. My hashed togther version simply subtracts 256 before the not, in order to give me the correct answer.
Basically, I would love for someone to chime in and point out the flaws in my function, and push me towards figuring out the 'proper' way of doing this. Also I can't quite wrap my head around what would happen in the case a string were passed to my function that is over 16 bits, but I imagine I would have to subtract a larger value than 256, before doing the NOT in this case?(whilst we're on the subject of functions, I've used a 'sub', in which case should I used a sub, and which case should I use a function?).
Can you do something like this? Public sub dosomething(byref value as (Integer or Long)) And how can you make a method accepts a unlimited amount of parameters? I'll probaly be able to find a explanation on the internet, but could anyone tell me how this is called. I am not using the right keywords I think..

I am currently still learning to use VB.Net feature. Currently I am trying to execute a .exe file where there will be passing parameters to run the script. E.g. this how it works on the command prompt line:

Above line will be able to run the textfile.exe script.
I am using VB .Net to create a User Interface where user will be able to use the 'OPEN CLICK' button to choose the files (which will display on a textbox) and click on a 'START' button to run the program. I managed to find a code - process.start() feature, however it cant seem to work..
Private Sub Button2_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button2.Click
Dim MyProg As String
Dim executable As String
executable = "C:Documents and Settingsproject1 extfile.exe"
MyProg = TextBox1.Text
Process.Start(x, MyProg)
I have various shape objects, and I want each unique shape to implement a saveToDB method that simply calls a DB object that implements a Save method with an object as its input paramter. This DB.Save method will be a long case function that implements the proper SQL commands based on the type of attributes possessed by the input parameter object.how do I implement the SaveToDB method in my Shape class? Is it something like this:
Function Shape.SaveToDB
DB.Save(Me)
End Function
The goal here is to let each shape save itself without it knowing anything about database operations; I want to isolate db-specific information in my intermediary DB object, so the DB object will have to figure out what type of object wants to be saved into the SQL database and then execute whatever SQL instructions are needed. And then if I override the SaveToDB method in each shape subclass, I can avoid the case statement entirely, replacing it with a series of unique methods such as db.SaveCircle (ob), db.SaveSquare (ob), etc., sincle the caller already knows what it is.
Is it possible to pass a DataRow as a parameter to a sub?The following example will (hopefully) make clear what I want to do.

Here is the error I'm getting back. What have I done wrong?Compiler Error Message: BC30506: Handles clause requires a WithEvents variable defined in the containing type or one of its base types.
The reason why I need to do this is because I have a sequence of two lines of code that is littered all over my program, where I dynamically remove the handler to an event, then set the handler again. I'm doing this for several different events and event handlers, so I've decided to write a function that does this. [code]...

I currently have a page that is populated using a filter, which passes the parameters of the filter via URL.
I'd like to catch those parameters and give the user the opportunity to return to the page with the same filter applied to their view. Essentially, it's a back button. AKA: pass the parameters back into the URL so it repopulates the page.
Can I pass a form as a parameter in a sub like public Sub GetData(Byval Frm as form) and access its controls?I have few forms (you can say: FrmAccounting, FrmEngineering, FrmIT) with almost the same controls in each of them (txtEmployeeID, txtEmployeeName, optMale, optFemale etc), where no two forms are open at same time, and each of those forms have a Button which opens a new Form (you can say FrmCollectData) now I want to fetch data in FrmCollectData depending on which form it was opened from.. like if user was on FrmEngineering and it clicks button to open FrmCollectData.. form collectData fetches data from FrmEngineering Controls and if user was on FrmAccounting and it opens FrmCollectData, form Collectdata fetches data from FrmAccounting..
earlier, in VB6.. In one of the Sub written in frmCollectData I checked which form is opened by setting flags in each of forms (frmEngineering, frmAccounting etc) and then I passed the same form in a sub which writes data in frmCollectData controls.. but am not able to do the same in VB.NET.
Just asking for personal preferences, pros,cons on the following situation. I have a class(classA) that has some shared members in it. I have a procedure in a form that needs to execute a function in a separate class(classB). This function requires some of the shared member values from classA. I can either pass these values as parameters from the form to classB, or in classB I can just access them directly by referencing classA. As a general rule I've tended to try to use parameters to pass all the information a function needs but it starts to seem a little unwieldly when passing several parameters to multiple procedures.
