Logical And Bitwise Operators?

Aug 9, 2011

According to MSDN The And operator can act as a bitwise operator OR a logical operator.The only way to know if it is used as One operator or another is, If it is on the right side of an assignment operation? for example x = 3 AND 5. I cannot find any other instances where the bitwise operator would be used instead of the logical operator, are there?

Bitwise-Logical-Operators?

Dec 29, 2010

Did anyone else read this article under Visual Basic News? I thought it was a very bad treatment of the subject. I especially don't like articles like that when the code they post relies on Option Strict Off.

Missing Operators - Operators Are Not Visible Although They Are There Since The Program Will Work?

Feb 17, 2012

I recently installed visual studio 2010 and am using visual basic.The problem I am having is that some operators do not show up within the editor. For example the code line below
test = 3 + 5 - 6 / 7 * 4

only displays

test 3 5 - 6 / 7 * 4

the = + operators are not visible although they are there since the program will work as intended....and if I open up the .vb file in notepad everything is there. It just won't display within Visual Studio.

Bitwise Comparison

Dec 30, 2010

result = SendMessage(buttonhandle, BM_GETSTATE, 0, 0)
buttonChecked = (result = BST_CHECKED)

Now I want to know whether the bit for BST_CHECKED is turned on or not.

How would I do that?

I can do

buttonChecked = (result % 2 = BST_CHECKED)

Is there a better way?

Converting Bitwise And/not From C#?

Jul 21, 2011

Original Code (VB.net): curStyle = curStyle And (Not ES_NUMBER)

Changed Code (C#):
curStyle = curStyle & (!ES_NUMBER);

But it is giving me this error: Operator '!' cannot be applied to operand of type 'long'ES_NUMBER is of data type long.I tried changing it to int, string, etc. All doesn't work.

Bitwise Shift - Getting Different Results In C#.net Vs PHP

May 15, 2011

When I run this command in PHP, I get:

[Code]...

The interesting thing is, that when I try to shift any number greater than int32 in .net, it yields bad results.. Every number under int32 (2147483647) yields the same results from php and c#.net or vb.net Is there a workaround for this in .net?

Bitwise Property Values In Designer?

Aug 24, 2009

I have an abstract user control(baseModule) that has a property that I plan on using a bitwise comparison on to determine what export types are supported by that module. In the designer of a module derived from baseModule, I am presented with a combobox with the ability to just select a single value (Html, Xml, etc.) I would like to be presented with a drop-down checked listbox so I could select which values I want.How can I accomplish this inside of VS2008? I've seen other properties support this.

Public Class ExportTypes
Public Enum ExportType
Html = 1
Xml = 2[code]......

C# - Bitwise Operations In Visual Basic .NET?

Jul 19, 2010

I'm re-writing some old application in VB.NET to C# and ASP.NET 3.5. Everything is going OK but I have this problem - and, as the database will not be changed, I must find a solution to it.The old app saves the list o desired days (from Sunday to Saturday) in a byte. This is the way it do it:

If chkDaily.Checked Then
daysBitmask = 127 ' This is for a full week

Changing File Attributes (BitWise)?

Jun 14, 2009

m_ArchiveBoolean, m_HiddenBoolean, m_ReadOnlyBoolean, m_IndexedBoolean, m_CompressedBoolean are all form level booleans that's set from their appropriate Checkboxes on the form before this code runs in a BackgroundWorker.

Why is it that this code works:

Try
Dim fi As New FileInfo(element)
With fi
If m_ArchiveBoolean = False Then

[code]....

In this 2nd one attributes are being changed, but they're the wrong ones and I can't pinpoint it right off hand.

Edit: What the overall goal of this is that if the user has the attribute checkbox checked then the file needs to have it set, other wise the attribute (if it's present) needs to be unset.

Bitwise Operations, Combining 3 Bytes To Long

Dec 4, 2011

I am trying to combine three Byte values to one Long value, like System.Drawing.Color.ToArgb() does.

I've looked up reference source code to find it and converted it to VB .NET:

Return CLng((CInt(red) << 16 Or CInt(green) << 8 Or blue Or CInt(alpha) << 24) And -1)

It works fine of course, but I don't really understand why alpha shifted by 24 is last, not first (so it would be in nice order 24, 16, 8). I don't really understand bitwise operations a lot. Also, this code snippet works for 4 bytes, which is redundant for me, I need just three bytes and I wonder if Long is still required when bytes are only three, wouldn't Integer do just fine in this case?

So, my question is, how do I rewrite this code to work with just 3 parameters? Do I need to use Long? And, I know this is silly, but is it possible to make byte shifting in order 16,8,0 instead of 16,8,0,24? It's really just aesthetics, but I am awful perfectionist.

VS 2008 Bitwise Operation (Reversing Bits)?

Feb 16, 2011

I have written a simple VB.net application which saves information to an RFID tag. I am now trying to compress my data. The solution I have come up with involves bitwire operation.Basically I store 2 numbers per 1 byte (0-9, 10 being a period, 12 possibly being a negative/positive flag,13,14,15 unused as of yet).The code I am using basically shifts the byte containing a number left, 4 spaces, then 'OR's it against another number.Therefore 12 is now represented as 00010010. The problem i'm having is decompressing. Obviously getting the '1' back is easy, as I just shift right 4, then grab it. I need to append or remove the last 4 bits.My solution after many headaches was to reverse the bit order, shift left 4, then reverse, then tostring it.

Get The First/last/min/max Logical Item Of A List?

Dec 17, 2010

Sorting arrays are useful when you want to get the first/last/min/max logical item of a list. I.E. A list that contains numbers and you want to find the Min/Max (without LINQ), you can sort the list and pull the first/last element. It's also useful to display lists to the user in alphabetical order.

Linq - .NET Logical Expression Evaluator?

May 21, 2010

I need to test a logical expression held in a string to see if it evaluate to TRUE or FALSE.(the strig is built dynamically)For example the resulting string may contain "'dog'<'cat' OR (1>4 AND 4<6)". There are no variables in the string, it will logically evaluate. It will only contain simple operators = > < >< >= <= and AND , OR and Open and Close Brackets, string constants and numbers. (converted to correct syntax && || etc.)

I currently acheive this by creating a jscipt function and compiling it into a .dll. I then reference the .dll in my VB.NET project.

class ExpressionEvaluator
{
function Evaluate(Expression : String)
{
return eval(Expression);
}
}

Is there a simpler method using built in .NET functions or Lamdba expressions.

Storing Conditional (Logical Structures) In XML

Jan 20, 2009

I have the need to express simple conditionals as program input. The input must be human readable. Is XML suited for this? For example, I have the following conditional statement:

If AnimalType = Leopard And (SourceCountry = Kenya Or TargetCountry = Kenya) Then
ZooKeeper=Jack
Else
ZooKeeper=Jill
End If

Expressing the above in XML might look something like this:
<If>
<Conditional>
<And>
<AnimalType>Leopard<AnimalType>
[Code] .....

How best to represent conditional statements in XML? I haven't yet explored using attributes. I don't currently have the need for nested 'If' statements or the 'Else If' clause, but I'm going to try and work them in anyway. Perhaps the VB code is more 'readable' than XML can be in this case and I should create a custom flat-file format instead.
