LINQ VB How To Check For Duplicates In A List Of Objects
Oct 11, 2011
I have a list of objects, each with 2 relevant properties: "ID" and "Name". Lets call the list "lstOutcomes".I need to check the list for duplicates (meaning object1.ID = object2.ID, etc.) and set a flag (valid = false, or something) if there is at least one duplicate. Also, it would be nice to send a message to the user mentioning the "Name" of the object, when it fails.I am sure I will need to use the Group By operator to do this, but I am not used to doing that in LINQ, and the examples out there are just not helping me. This article seems to be close to what i need, but not quite and it's in C#.
Here is a starting stab at it...
Dim duplist = _
(From o As objectType In lstOutcomes _

help?

I have a query that 'selects' object of a type:
Dim l as IList(Of Foo) = (From dataRow As DataRow In table.Select()
Where CStr(dataRow("Column1")) = "A"
Select New Foo(CStr(dataRow("Column1")), _
CStr(dataRow("Column2")))).ToList()
What's happening is that if i set a break-point to the constructor of Foo and step, the constructor is hit and the parameters are loaded with the arguments. However, l has empty Foo objects (the members in every object are Nothing). What could be happening here?

I have
Dim objectsList as List(Of Object) = GetAllObjects()
' Filter from Objects just Persons '
Dim peopleList as List(Of Person) = ???
What is the most efficient and effective LINQ expression to do it?
EDIT
1 Dim selectedObjects As List(Of Object) = GetAllObjects()
2 Dim selectedPeople As IEnumerable(Of Person)= selectedObjects.OfType(Of Person)
3 Dim people As List(Of Person) = selectedPeople.ToList()
Error on 3:
Value of type
'System.Collections.Generic.List(Of
System.Collections.Generic.IEnumerable(Of Person))' cannot be
converted to
'System.Collections.Generic.List(Of Person)'.

I figure I should use 'Aggregate' but apparently I am getting it wrong First I get a list of my Entity objects Dim employers As List(Of myEntity) = (New XXXX()).getZZZ(userName, userType) Then I figured this would be a way to put all the names in a string Dim names as String = employers.Aggregate(Function(current, [next]) current.Name & " " & [next].Name)

Basically, I am trying to write a LINQ to Objects statement where the relationship is a grandparent, parent, child relationship. (You could also call it a Master Detail relationship.)
In Legacy code here is a simplified version what I am trying to accomplish.
Dim coverages As New List(Of Coverage)
Dim coverage As Coverage
For Each rl In oClaimsPolicy.RiskLocations
coverage = New Coverage
coverage.Level = "Location"
[Code] .....
If is it not clear one Location can have many Items and one Item can have many Coverages. I basically want to list the items and show the relationship between grandparent (Location), parent (Item) and child (Coverage).

I am having so trouble with the ToUpper() procedure with strings. I am using LINQ to find unique values in a list of objects. In that whole process I set the values to compare to all lowercase in order to get a proper list. My goal is to populate a dropdown list with the values. I'm attempting to set the first letter of of the string to uppercase and keep the rest lowercase however the toUpper() procedure is not working?
Private Function FixCase(ByVal strIn) As String
Dim strOutput As String
Dim intStringLength As Integer = strIn.Length - 1
strOutput = strIn.Substring(0, 1)

I don't know if this is doable, maybe with Linq, but I have a List(Of MyType):
Public Class MyType
Property key As Char
Property description As String
End Class
And I want to create a Dictionary(Of Char, MyType) using the key field as the dictionary keys and the values in the List as the dictionary values, with something like:
New Dictionary(Of Char, MyType)(??)
Even if this is doable, internally it will loop through all the List items, I guess?

Recently, I have a requirement to develop a vb.net application wherein the input excel sheet data which has an average of 5000 records should be checked for Internal duplicates (duplicates within the same sheet) and external duplicates (duplicates which exist outside this sheet). I have gone through lot of logics..some of which are ...
- Common and currently testing out..
- First insert the excel sheet data into DB..then query by following
select distinct id,mobilenumber from scrubmaster where calltablename=<calltablename given by the uploader>
Then loop for duplicates...
[code]....
The above logic works but it takes very long time..I have tried other logics from web but they "Query timeout"...

I'm Using Griaule Grfinger X 4.2 SDK for a project. I am able to enroll templates into database, also identify and verify fingerprints against registered ones in the database.But I have a further challenging issue. I want to be able to run through the database to check for duplicates so as to identify them in which I would put duplicates in a hotlisted database.

Ok, my script which is a follow on from a previous thread on writing to a text file needs another thing added to make this one form hopefully complete. (in fact its two things).Firstly, when the 'Save' button is pressed, I want it to check to see if the textbox1 text is already used (textbox1 is the plu field, but still titled as textbox1). So if the save button is pressed, I want it to check first if that number has already been used, and if so, display an error message and don't save, and don't clear the fields so that way the user can enter a different number in for that item.
Secondly, several fields are numeric only. I've tried a couple of examples and are either too complex or just don't want to work for me. How do I ensure that some fields are numeric only (well one is a percentage, two fields are numeric and 1 is a currency field).

I want to compare two objects to check if all the properites of both the object have same value or not. for this i need to use the reflection to enumarate through all the properties of an object and check the value of the property.

I have this code to return a list of fund sources for our organization.
Dim FundSourceList As New List(Of FundSource)
Dim fs As New FundSource
If results.Count > 0 Then[code].....
The problem is that when I loop through the resulting FundSourceList all it shows is the last value. For example, if I have three fund sources (state, federal, athletic), then when I use this code to loop through all I get listed is athletic, athletic, athletic.
For Each FundSource In FundSources
Debug.Print(FundSource.FundDescription)
Next
So I change the code to this. I moved the creation of the fs variable inside the loop.
Dim results = From result In dsResult.Tables(0) Select result
Dim FundSourceList As New List(Of FundSource)
If results.Count > 0 Then[code]....
This works fine but now I'm creating a new class over and over again. It seems a little inefficient to me. Can I not create the class outside the loop and use it over and over again?

Okay so i have a very large list of string (500 000 strings) i want to check the number of duplicate strings and maybe even isolate the duplicate strings if i can.
i cant find a fast method to do so :S
i tried using a string array (slower than list) takes ~15mins
i tried using list with the code below takes ~10 mins
that wont cut it :S i need something faster.

I'm having a bit of a 'brain doner' moment here
I have a list of Objects. Each of these Objects contains a list of other Objects (pseudo code) :-
Private Structure Object1
dim Name as string
dim ListOfObject2 as List(Of Object2)
[Code]....
I need to sort the list of Object1 by the Value in Object2. I have a comparison class which sorts Object2 by its Value nicely.
