The basic System.Byte doesn't make me happy, especially when I'm doing network operations that deliver bytes as BigEndian while the System.Byte relies on the System.Bitconverter that's almost always going to process LittleEndian.
So I'm working on a custom Class that contains a basic, underlying System.Byte that I can play with; and I want to give it a Property called Byte so the underlying value can be returned or set. The problem is that Byte is a Visual Basic Keyword, so when I try to name a Property 'Byte' Visual Studio starts throwing Intellisense errors at me.

I am using Visual Studio 2010 Prof. In C# I can create my own Enumerator and use it like this:MyEnum value = Now, Intellisense will suggest a value of MyEnum. In VB, when I write:Dim value As MyEnum = I get a huge list of every types. When starting to write my enumerator value (could be a word like "sunny") it filters out some types but I would like to have it like in C#. Anyway I will use the MyEnum type and no "String nor Objecte nor IntPtr...".

Private _protocol As Protocol
Enum Protocol
HTTP
HTTPS

Now when i get value back from protocoltype it returns me integer value as enum do so tell me how to get string from enum or other substitute.
Dim targetUri As String = setting.protocolType & "://www.mysite.com"
I'm trying to declare an enumeration and one of the names I'd like to use for an item is not usable apparently. Where I am declaring 'STEP = 3', I get this error message in visual studio: "Statement cannot appear within an Enum body. End of statement expected." Is it possible to use STEP as an item name somehow? [Code]
View 4 RepliesHi, I need to program a simple Web Browser that can search for keywords and store relevant data in another file.I am facing a problem with authentication, mainly cookies and maintaining a session.So I read that Web Browser Control is based on I.E.? So may I know how are cookies and session handled?Do I have to implement them manually or are they stored and retrieved from the same folder as the one used in I.E? If so, if I delete the I.E.'s cache, am I also deleteing the cache of any Web Browser I make using Web Browser Control?

This Code:

Which is better, using a nullable enum or adding the value None=0 to your enum list?Using nullables requires more code, but I kind of like it since it forces me to think about the possibility. Otherwise I'm liable to forget about the None enum and fail to account for it being a special case.

In VB.NET I would like to create a complicated data structure with multiple types of data stored in an array like format (see below). I am trying to create a data structure that would look something like this: [Name; xLoc; yLoc; zLoc; [Jagged Array]] Note: Name needs to be dimensioned as a string, xLoc and so forth as integers. The Jagged Array would look like this:

In my winform app in VB.NET I want to use the localization option. But i have a few questions/problems. I'm using a menu strip to select an other language. But it seems that is doesn't change my menustip text to my selected language. It does change my labels, buttons, and textboxes but menu strips don't seem to change when I choose another language. Also is it possible to get those resx files such as MyForm.fr-FR.resx compiled so it isn't an external file outside my app? Or to get those files in an Language folder at the same location of my app, so i don't have all those fr-FR & nl-Nl folders in the same location as my program?

If I use byte() instead of long, then i get ExecutionEngineException Exception.
View 3 RepliesI'm torn between using UniqueIdentifiers(UID) or some other field as my primary key for my new web app. I have two tables.

View 3 RepliesVisual Basic 2010 (Express). If I take a string from a textbox and assign it to an integer variable, I'm under the impression that you're supposed to use CInt to explicitly convert the contents to an integer.intMyCount = CInt(txtUserInput.Text)However, if I don't do that, it still seems to work. Similarly, if I have an integer and concatenate it into a label's text property, it still works: lblResults.Text = intMyCount & " number of times."
rather than using intMyCount.ToString.Why does it work? Is VB doing implicit conversions when possible? Are there examples where not explicitly converting with .ToString or using CInt would cause unexpected results?

For eg, I expects 'true' for comparing 1000.0(Decimal) with 1000(Double) . Similary, it should return true if I compare 10(string) and 10(double) .

I never thought I'd say this, but I am getting pissed at how easy it is to just plop down a variable in python without any declaration. I have an existing python script which interfaces with a server, and it builds its own messages to be communicated via sockets. What I am trying to do is take the command line python script and convert it into a VB GUI app that is more user friendly.

I'm creating a VB.Net Windows Form Application. Apologies if this is not clear as I'm still new to .Net. This consists of a text box and a gridview.The user is able to write SQL code in the textbox, click run and see the results in the gridview.It uses a SQL DataAdapter and the fill method to a datatable to populate the gridview.My problem is that I need to know the SQL datatypes for each column in the data table (NOT the .net ones). I.E SQL Server 2008 data type 'Date' is stored as System.Datetime in the datatable. I need to know if the SQL Server datatype is 'Date' or 'Datetime'.
View 2 RepliesI have a class with a Property called 'Value' which is of type Object.Value can be of any type, a structure, a class, an array, IList etc.My problem is with the setter and determining whether the value has changed or not.This is simple enough for value types, but reference types and lists present a problem.For a class, would you assume that the Equals method has been implemented correctly, or just assume that the value has changed every time the setter is called?If I did assume it's changed, then perhaps I should assume it for value types as well, so that the behaviour is consistent.
