Forbid Implicit Conversion On Parameter?
Jul 21, 2011I have 2 methods with the same name, with diferente signatures.
Public Sub Method1(ByVal Parameter1 as String, ByVal Parameter2 as Boolean)
Public Sub Method1(ByVal Parameter1 as Integer, Optional ByVal Parameter2 as Boolean = False, Optional ByVal Parameter3 as Boolean = False)
If I call Method1("My String Parameter", False) it will not give and error, it will try to convert the parameter to integer and use the overload.
Is there a way to forbid the implicit conversion in this specific method or in this specific parameter. For instance, I changed the second method name, but its not an elegant solution.
Implicit Conversion From Double To Single
Jun 13, 2011[Code]...
The code compiles and seems to run correctly, but is underlined with the message "Implicit Conversion from 'Double' to 'Single'" Why would this be an implicit conversion if each of the variables is cast as a Single? Is this something I should worry about or change?
Implicit Conversion From String To Boolean?

C# - Allow Implicit Narrowing Conversion In For Each With Option Strict On?
Dec 1, 2009 VB.Net just showing its true colors again? When I turn Option Strict On, I am still able to do implicit narrowing conversions in a for each loop.For example, this code actually compiles;
Private Sub foobar()
Dim foo() As foo = {New foo}
For Each bar As bar In foo[code].....
From my understanding of Option Strict, this should not work.See here "Restricts implicit data type conversions to only widening conversions".My code above is a narrowing conversion, and so should be illegal.It will fail at runtime with an InvalidCastException.
C# does the same thing. Below is another implicit narrowing conversion.
private void foobar()
{
foo[] foo={new foo()};[code]......

Apr 25, 2011I'm trying to create a linked list of an array of integers. Why is the following implicit conversion required?
When I run the code that contains that conversion, I get the following error.
As a real-time data acquisition user control data (a packet of an array of bytes) arrives every second, is converted into an integer array and inserted into a linked list.
The most recently arrived data is painted as coordinates on a grid at the right of a PictureBox using Graphics.DrawLine (pen,X1,Y1,X2,Y2).
The oldest data (arriving 120 seconds ago) will be drawn at the leftmost portion of the Picturebox.
Why a linked list rather than a list? To display 120 views of time sequence data, the draw routine the most recently inserted node to a node that points to Nothing. How do I limit the length of the linked list to 120 nodes and always ensure that the last node points to Nothing?

Updating A Datarow With Another Datarow?
Apr 28, 2010I have two datatables with similar structures that I want to make one existing row to be updated from another datatable.
For example, "tableA" has three columns: "one", "two", and "three"; with "one" being the primary key...
and "tableB" has three columns as well: "one", "two", and "three"; with "one" being the primary key.
Say there is a row on tableA that is different than a row on tableB (with a matching primary key). What I wanted to do, as efficiently as possible, is to take the that row from tableB and replace the one on tableA so it'll be modified.
I'm not sure if there's an easier way of doing that instead of using loops for setting the row's items.

View 2 RepliesText -> Excel Conversion (with Extensive Formatting Required After Conversion)?
May 11, 2012I'm creating a program in VB.net that does the following:At a high level I receive a file in email, put the attachment in a monitored folder, import the text file to excel, format the excel, and then email the excel file to a list of recipients.
Here is my plan:
Completed: Outlook VBA to monitor all incoming email for specific message. Once message is received drop attached .txt file in a specific network folder.
Completed: (VB.net) Monitor folder, when text file is added begin processing
Not Complete: (VB.net) Import text file to Excel
Not Complete: (VB.net) Format Excel Text file.(add in a row of data,format column headers with color/size, add some blank columns, add data validation to some of the blank columns that allow drop down selections)
Completed: (VB.net) Save file.
Completed: (VB.net) Send file to list of recipients.
Obviously the items above that are not complete are the bulk of the work, but I wanted to get some advice on what some of you think would be the best way to approach something like this. The import and formatting of the file are causing me some problems because I just can't decide what would be the most efficient way to do this.
The way stated above. Import to excel -> format Having a template excel that contains all of the formatting already done for me and attempting to transition the data to this document (no clue if/how I can do this). Is it even feasible? Have the template already created and then import the text file to a new excel file, then transition that data to the excel template?
Something I thought about, in terms of formatting the document, was to record a macro of me doing all of the formatting that I'm going to need and then attempt to convert that macro into my vb.net code, but I'm not sure if that will work. I will need to verify that the text file comes in the EXACT format every time correct?
C# - Does An EventWaitHandle Have Any Implicit MemoryBarrier
Mar 25, 2009I've frequently coded something along the lines of the sample below(with stuff like Dispose ommited for clarity. ). My question is, are the volatiles needed as shown? Or does the ManualResetEvent.Set have an implicit memory barrier as I've read Thread.Start does? Or would an explicit MemoryBarrier call be better than the volatiles? Or is it completely wrong? Also, the fact that the "implicit memory barrier behavior" in some operations is not documented as far as I've seen is quite frutrating, is there a list of these operations somewhere?

View 1 RepliesAsp.net - Implicit Line Continuation In VS2010?
Oct 5, 2011As most of you know, .Net framework 4.0/Visual Studio 2010 supports implicit line continuation in VB, which was not available in previous versions (at least not to my knowledge). I have a situation where I am working on an ASP.Net 3.5 application that is targeting a machine that does not currently have .Net 4.0 installed and from what I understand it won't be installed for some time yet on that machine. Obviously, my development machine does have .net 4.0 installed.
With the implicit line continuation feature in VS2010, I sometimes find myself forgetting to add the continuation, and VS2010 does not have an issue with that even when I am targeting a previous version. Additionally, I know that if I actually compile the code (business objects and such), issues with line continuation are not a problem, as the compiled dll works fine as a 3.5 .net file.
My concern is this. There are areas where I am doing VB.Net coding in the code behind(beside?) for the asp.net pages. These would only be compiled on the server when they are first used, but since the server doesn't have the .net 4.0 framework (or even if it did), does anyone know if this would this cause the compilation to fail if I missed a line continuation? If so, is there a way to enforce using line continuation characters in VS2010?
I realize that some best practices might not be getting followed here, but I'm not about to change all the development dynamics around here just yet. Also, I'm not in an environment where I could easily test this out on my own.
C# - Compiler Does Not Do Implicit Casts To Object?
Apr 10, 2011I've recently had a strange issue with one of my APIs reported. Essentially for some reason when used with VB code the VB compiler does not do implicit casts to Object when trying to invoke the ToString() method.The following is a minimal code example firstly in C# and secondly in VB:
Graph g = new Graph();
g.LoadFromEmbeddedResource("VDS.RDF.Configuration.configuration.ttl");
foreach (Triple t in g.Triples)[code].....
This appears to be due to the fact that the type of the property t.Subject that I am trying to write to the console has explicitly defined ToString() methods which take parameters.The VB compiler appears to expect one of these to be used and does not seem to implicitly cast to Object and use the standard Object.ToString() method whereas the C# compiler does.Is there any way around this e.g. a VB compiler option or is it best just to ensure that the type of the property (which is an interface in this example) explicitly defines an unparameterized ToString() method to ensure compatability with VB?
Graph is an implementation of an interface but that is actually irrelevant since it is the INode interface which is the type that t.Subject returns which is the issue.INode defines two overloads for ToString() both of which take parameters Yes it is a compile time error No I do not use hide-by-name, the API is all written in C# so I couldn't generate that kind of API if I wanted to
Note that I've since added an explicit unparameterized ToString() overload to the interface which has fixed the issue for VB users.

C# - Runtime InvalidCastException With Implicit Cast Operator?
Oct 13, 2009I have a C# library that internal clients configure with VB.Net Their scripts are throwing an InvalidCastException where they really shouldn't.
So the code is something like this (massively simplified):

Strange - it looks like the VB.net compiler can find the cast operator but it's lost at runtime. Surely the VB and C# IL will be pretty similar here?
The VB.net code is dynamically compiled - the compile happens the first time a user logs into the app. it's being compiled as VB.Net against .Net 3.5, and I'm not using any COM interop.
