If I execute the following statement: dim defaultDate as Date = Nothing defaultDate contains the default value of the Date structure.I suspect there is a clean way to retreive this value, like some kind of buitin constant, but i was not able to find it.What is the clean way to retrieve the default value of a given structure in VB.net ?

I'm able to create a List(Of String) containing a local directory structure of a LOCAL folder. I'm wondering how I would go about getting this structure for a website, in order to get a listing of all files of a particular type (for example: all .html files)
Something along the lines of what Xenu does would be perfect, but I don't know how to get started. I was thinking of doing something with parsing out "/" of the URL, but then you'd need to know the "deepest" file that exists on the site.. which you won't know...
Is there a way to get a folder listing of each directory of a site without having FTP access or something? (I'm assuming no due to security risks)
My only other option would be to crawl all hyperlinks within the site, and storing all the "internal" ones, but I don't know how to set up that loop, or how to know when it has reached the "deepest" level.
Kinda like when you delete a remote folder from FileZilla, it will traverse all sub-diretories first and delete those files.
I'm trying to build something called a structure which will store data it retrieves from a text file. I have the structure set up like this:
Structure Employee
Dim FirstName As String
Dim LastName As String
Dim ID As String
Dim Hours As Integer
Dim Wage As Decimal
Dim EarnedPay As Decimal
End Structure
[Code] .....
How to set these operations up?
Module Module1
Public Structure structure1
Public TRANS() As structure2
End Structure
Public Structure structure2
Public X() As Integer
End Structure
End Module
I'm new to VB 2008 after having spent a long time with VB6, so I apologize if this is a stupid question. But I'd really like to have this straightened out.
Let's say I have a pretty large structure that has lots of properties.
Code:
Now say that I want an internal database with about 10 instances of this structure total, describing, say, 10 different products that a store sells. When these values are loaded from a database, they remain totally static. (However, they can be different each time a program loads)
Now say that I have a class. Each instance of this class is a type of that BaseProduct structure. Meaning, each instance of the class pertains to one of the 10 types of products that the store sells. However, this class has additional properties that pertain specifically to each instance, which are not static.
Code:
Now, the problem here is... If I have 200 different transactions, each one contains an instance of BaseProduct. BaseProduct is HUGE, and is largely redundant (only 10 types possible), so I think it's a little silly to include a whole copy of it with EVERY transaction. However, the Transaction class really needs information regarding the base product it pertains to. Is there a way to, instead of declaring a New BaseProduct in the Transaction class, to simply make one of the properties of the Transaction class a pointer to a BaseProduct variable?
In VB6, I would accomplish this by making a BaseProduct(10) array, and then giving each Transaction an ID number referring to an entry in that array. But in VB 2008, using class structure, this is impossible. I can't define the BaseProduct(10) array outside of a class in a namespace, and if I define it in the actual application's form, then the class loses modularity since it relies on the application that's using it.
I am trying to communicate with an external device and i am trying to send a byte array to the external device via sockets but i am always getting a response the message size is too small so i am not sure what i have done wrong. Between the data type there should be no alignment present and all numbers are represented in little endian format. The char array is not null terminated as mentioned in the protocol specifications.
I have to send data based on a struct that embeds 2 other struct. So here's my vb.net code for the struct used to convert to byte array and the sending part.

Is it possible to set a project default for VB.NET winforms projects so that the default Modifier for controls added to winforms is Private (not Friend)?I know there's a "modifiers" property in the properties window so I can set it for each individual control however I would like to change the project so from now on myself and other developers have to specifically decide to change from friend to private. (Which I would strongly discourage them from doing).I believe there is no way of doing this, but on another forum a while ago someone mentioned it would be possible with an add-in (but didn't name the add-in or where to get it).
View 1 RepliesI am using VB 08 running an openfiledialogue wanting to get the result of the GDS file (*.gds) to be the default extension at the drop down menu instead of All file when the openfiledialogue box opens.
I coded it with:

but the results i get in the open file dialogue box remains as all files being in the drop down menu as the default file extension. How to i set it to ".gds" format?
I have created a public structure:
Public Structure LogicalEdge
Dim sTypeEdge As String
Dim dTotalLengthOfLines As Double
Dim lstLinesInEdge As List(Of Line)
End Structure
In my code, I create a new list of this LogicalEdge:
Dim myListOfEdges As List(Of LogicalEdge) = New List(Of LogicalEdge)
After, I create a new LogicalEdgecontainer:
LogicalEdge = New LogicalEdge
I set one of it's properties:
LogicalEdge.sTypeEdge = "endcap"
Now, I add it to the list
myListOfEdges.Add(LogicalEdge)
After looping a few times, i want to set one of the other propterties for the same item in my LogicalEdge, but when i do this:
LogicalEdge.dTotalLengthOfLines = 80.77
To look at the values in the collection, I loop through myListOfEdges collection; and I see that dTotalLengthOfLines doesn't pick up the value i have assigned to it. i thought I might need to identify which item in myListOfEdges to add it to... so i tried this:
LogicalEdge = myListOfEdges.Item(i)
LogicalEdge.dTotalLengthOfLines = 80.77
But that didn't work either.
I'm sure there is an answer to this somewhere but I'm clearly using the wrong terminology in my searches, so I apologise in advance for this inevitably being a duplicate.Take the function CType. Clearly I can cast (or at least try) a given object to a given reference type. The function will not work if trying to cast to a structure, i.e.CType(myObject, Integer)
will generate a compiler error. This I'm sure most often crops up when working with generics:
[Code]...
What is the opposite? I want only reference types so that CType doesn't fail. I can't overload the T As Structure with a plain T because it considers them identical signatures, so surely there's a keyword I'm missing somewhere?
Recently I found that I'm not able to instantiate a structure for an array:
Dim mObjectLists() As New objectLayout
Ok, fair but It's an easy way to store a bunch of data in an array instead define a class. And after that I tried to define this:
Dim mObjectLists() As Collection
And add structures to the collection. But it says you should instantiate the reference object first. I searched about creating own Collection based on the base collection class but I think It's wasting time to write a code with class inheritance instead the first sample.

View 5 RepliesI need to convert structure from VB6 to VB.Net. This struct is used to pass to a c++ dll. The problem is that the following struct size in VB is 113, but for some reason in VB.Net is 116.
[Code]...
I have an unmanaged C++ dll that I am using in my program. I have successfully used several functions using DllImport. I have run into a problem with one function that takes a structure as input. I originally tried building a structure to pass to the function, but this was unsucessful. So i created a class to define the needed structure. When I pass this, I get no error message, but also no data is passed back to this variable. I have a C++ example of how to use this function, but I don't know how this translates to VB 2005. Here is how they call it in C++ .

I have a structure type, as below
Code:
Public Structure StrFolder
Public isActive As Boolean
Public NameFolder As String[code]....
I would like to retrieve and print each variable name within a given structure (not its value). For example:
StrFolder(0).Name should print "isActive"
StrFolder(1).Name should print "NameFolder"
StrFolder(2).Name should print "URLIDNumber"
StrFolder(3).Name should print "DateOfFolder"
etc..
I would also like to know each type of an item within a structure. For example:
StrFolder(0).Type should print "Boolean"
StrFolder(1).Type should print "String"
StrFolder(2).Type should print "Integer"
StrFolder(3).Type should print "String"
etc..
