I am trying to figure out the best approach for setting and getting properties in a nested class I am creating. I have a class, Car which has a nested class ControlPanel and want to make the properties of the Control Panel only accessible to the Car and Control Panel class.

I've created a class library and built a dll (release build). I've then referenced the DLL in another project (I've tried several). I can see the namespace and classes in Object Browser and I can declare instances of the classes but I cannot use or see any of the methods or properties! there is no IntelliSense whatsoever and calling the methods manualy results in a 'Declaration expected' error.
Within the class library solution I have a unit test project referencing the class library project which works all works fine (and all the tests pass).
Can anyone provide any pointers to what might be going wrong here? I've built plenty of dlls in the past and have had no trouble referencing them at all.[code]...
I have a Public Class called "ClientConnection". Inside that class, I have a Public ReadOnly Property called "FileTransfers(ByVal TransferID)". The property returns an object of the class "FileTransfer". All methods in FileTransfer are set to public.
VS is able to discover the methods inside the parent class "ClientConnection". How would I expose the methods inside the sub-class "FileTransfer" that is returned by the property "FileTransfers(ByVal TransferID)"?
Public Class ClientConnection
'irreverent code removed
Public ReadOnly Property FileTransfers(ByVal TransferID As Integer)

I have a class definition that I've seen other define properties that return collections of objects.
Public Property GetAllAdults() as Adults End Property I made the argument that this should be a method in the class, because it doesn't define an attribute of the class, and could not be extended with parameters. Is/Are there reasons why this should be defined as a property vs. a function?
Is it possible to iterate through the properties and methods of a custom class, getting the details about those properties and methods in the process.[code]....

View 2 RepliesIn c# asp.net mvc I can declare some public class like:
public class Foo {
public static string Bar {get
{return "bar";}
}
}
and access it from any html like:
<%=Foo.Bar;%>
right?Well, I have to do the same in ASP.NET MVC VB.Net but I cannot access any variable or method:
public class Foo
public Shared ReadOnly Bar as string
Get

UPDATE:standard VB.NET puts modules in the namespace defined in your project.I had to type
MVCApplication1.Foo.Bar
how to create a module that doesn't wrap this into a namespace? Or have the view import the application namespace by default?
I have a sub (Sub 1)that passes a control to another sub (Sub2) Sub2 only knows that the control will either be a picturebox ("Pict1") or a rich textbox ("Rchtxbx").I want to put code in Sub2 that does the following if the control that is passed is aPictureBox:ictureBox1.Load("C est.bmp")However I don't know how to do this as when I type in "x" in Sub2, it does not default to the PictureBox properties and methods.Is it possible to use the name of a control and wrap it in some sort of ControlType() enclosure that identifies its type and grants access to its properties and methods?
View 1 RepliesI am writing my first class-library in VB.NET. My idea is to distribute this library so others may use it in their applications.However, perhaps due to my lack of experience in writing and structuring the library and the classes therein, I noted that the methods/properties are ALL being shown in the IntelliSense of Visual Studio.
The thing is that many of them are only used within the library itself and should NOT be used by the developers (could create a disaster) when they incorporate my library in their application - only a few should be visibile i.e. the ones which are needed by the developer.Thus, my question is: is there a way to hide certain methods/properties of my library from Visual Studio's IntelliSense? Maybe something similar to REM?
EDIT: as mentioned - this is my first library and I now understand that my question could be intepreted in two ways:
1) how to hide something from IntelliSense
2) how to prevent a developer from using and calling certain methods/properties
Of course, the end-result that I want is that the developer is not able to access AT ALL certain methods/properties i.e. No. 2 above.
Example ^. I must be forgetting something or being really dumb.

which gets me the simple string vars and properties of my top class, but how can i apply this to loop through all sub classes and get there vars and props?
I am not sure how clear my question is by the title, but I am trying to make Class methods instead of Instance methods in Visual Basic that way I don't have to waste memory and code creating temporary objects to execute methods that don't need instance variables.
I am not sure if you can do that in VB but I know you can in Objective-C by using either a "+" or "-" sign in front of the method declaration. And in C++ (at least I think, I can't remember) you put the static keyword or const keyword in front of the function.How would I do this in VB if it is possible? Or should I just make a separate set of functions that are not members of a class?
I want to created a nested class that can only be visible to and instantiated from the parent class.But I also want to be able to use an instance of the nested class through a public variable of the parent class.I tried making the nested class private, or making the nested class' constructor private, but it won't compile.Is it possible to do this in .NET?

If you can't use Me. in a non-instance method, how would you use properties/functions from a base class in a Shared method?
For example, ClassB inherits from ClassA

How do I Public Sub DoWork() Dim test as String = Me.SecurityKey End Sub

Is there a simple way in vb.net to mask a public property or method from the internal namespace? It would be helpful as a refactoring tool to isolate internal dependencies and perhaps to enforce a non-recursion policy for external services.

but it does not give the sample code for creating a user control with properties, events, methods
complete to create windows user control? that includes creating properties, events, methods? and if it has how to create web user controls better
at some points, I need to call the same method on those controls (ex. user presses the clear button on the big control, I want to call the clear f(x) on each of the controls)I thought to toss the controls in a collection, and then be able to handle them something like this:
nextturns out, and I should have realized, methods and properties of controls are not exposed when treated this way. The only thing that can be seen is the stuff that the base class (control, I guess) has.
limit the default events, properties and methods exposed from a UserControl so it only displays to the developer the new events etc that I code myself.What i mean is I have created a UserControl with a panel and 5 buttons, written 1 Public Eventonly at this stage, I have placed an instance of the control on a form in a new project, but in the drop down menu that comes up after say (myUserControl1.), there is a massive list of options, I don't want those to appear.
View 3 RepliesIn general, according to the OOP paradigm, my understanding of encapsulation basically says:
-If a member is private, it can only be accessed by the class.
-If a member is protected, it can only be accessed by the base class and any derived classes.
-If a member is public, it can be accessed by anyone.
If I have a nested class, can I declare a property to be accessible only to that class and the parent class it's nested within? For example:[code]In the example, I cannot directly access myNestedObject.myInt or myNestedObject.myDbl from an instance of ContainerClass if those members are Private or Protected. But suppose I don't want to make them Public,because then they are TOO exposed: they can be altered from anywhere, not just within a Container Class object. Declaring them Friend would still be too weak as that would allow them to be altered from anywhere within the application.
I want to know what are classes , objects , a namespace , subroutines,functions,methods,properties and differemce betweem byval and byref in your words.
