Construct A Generic Interface Class With Generic Functions
Nov 25, 2011I am trying to construct a generic interface class with generic functions. My goal was to use this to implement multiple worker classes for database interaction that have the same basic functionality. Each class will deal with different object for example, category, product or supplier but unless the the functions in the interface are generic that this won't work.This is the interface code that I have but I don't know if I have done it correctly.

View 2 RepliesInherit From A Generic Class Without Specifying A Type?
Apr 29, 2009I have the following sample code in a VB.NET console application. It compiles and works, but feels like a hack. Is there a way to define EmptyChild so that it inherits from Intermediate(Of T As Class) without using the dummy EmptyClass?
Module Module1
Sub Main()
Dim Child1 = New RealChild()[code].....
The other way to do this would be to move the generic code out of the Base class and then create 2 Intermediate classes like this [code]...
Then RealChild would inherit from the generic Intermediate and EmptyChild would inherit from the non-generic Intermediate. My problem with that solution is that the Base class is in a separate assembly and I need to keep the code that handles the generic type in that assembly. And there is functionality in the Intermediate class that does not belong in the assembly with the Base class.
VS 2005 - Inheriting Class Based On Generic Interface
Nov 17, 2009I want to define a generic interface which will be implemented by an abstract Generic Class. Basically this generic class is a collection class of any class. Interfaces are in a separate project saved as FileReconciliation. Here are the interface definitions

Imports System.Collections
Public Interface ICollectionCommon(Of T As Class)
Inherits IEnumerable
Function Exists(ByVal oKey As Object) As Boolean

.net - Can A Generic Version Of A Derived Class Override A Base Method Using The Generic Type
Apr 13, 2012Consider:
Public MustInherit Class Column
Public ReadOnly Property ReturnSomethingUseful() As Object
Get
'return something useful
[code]....
But this gives the following error:
Public Overrides Function ParseValue(sValue As String) As Boolean'
cannot override 'Public Overridable Function ParseValue(sValue As String) As Object'
because they differ by their return types.
I accept that you can't do this, but I'd like to be able to preserve the semantics of what I'm. trying to do, which is to have an untyped version that deals with Object, but a typed version in derived classes that knows about the specific type T.

View 4 RepliesWay To Implement IComparable (Of T) Or IComparer(Of T) If Class Is Not A Generic Class
Feb 19, 2010I am working on a general helper class to sort ListView SubItems. I wrote a base class that has much of the code I need. It includes a MustOverride for the Compare method so that the various inherited classes can implment their own comparisons based upon their type. For the value types, I end up with very similar code such as the following, where x and y are ListViewItems: Public Overloads Overrides Function Compare(ByVal x As Object, ByVal y As Object, ByVal sortColumnIndex As Integer, ByVal sortOrder As System.Windows.Forms.SortOrder) As Integer [code]

Can't Inherit Shared Properties From A Base Class In A Child Class?
Dec 29, 2010This is another one of my "I think it's not possible but I need confirmation" questions.I have a base class for a bunch of child classes. Right now, this base class has a few common properties the children use, like Name. The base is an abstract class (MustInherit)Technically, this means that everytime a child class is instantiated, it lugs around, in memory, its own copy of Name. The thing is, Name is going to be a fixed value for all instances of a given child. I.e., Child1.Name will return "child_object1", and Child2.Name will return "child_object2".

View 2 RepliesGeneric Error Handling Class?
Jan 10, 2012We are developing an application for our shop floor. This program will be tracking material through the shop and we need to capture any errors the program generates, but we don't need to stop the program for all errors. I have some code to do a screen capture and put it in a database with exception.tostring data for debugging.
What we would like to do, is create an exception from the base class, but provide additional properties to allow us to set a severity and a user friendly error message. I would like to encapsulate this in a class that we would call in the catch of a try/catch, set the properties on the class, have the class record the data to the database, then raise the exception to the main program to display only the user friendly message and severity. The main program would then determine the severity and based on the severity stop the program or just display a discreet msg and continue to process.
Does anyone have an example of a custom exception class derived from exception that does something similar, or if I heading in the wrong direction, does anyone have a better solution?

Implementing Generic IComparer Of Own Class?
Jun 17, 2012I am trying to create a class implementing the generic IComparer of my own class "Stellungen" (which translates to positions, like on a chess or checkers board).
This is what I got:
Private Class comparer(Of Stellung)
Implements System.Collections.Generic.IComparer(Of Stellung)
Public Function Compare(x As Stellung, y As Stellung) As Integer Implements System.Collections.Generic.IComparer(Of Stellung).Compare
End Function
End Class
Problem is: inside the function I have no access to any fields of my class. If I start off with x. Intellisense will only give me .Equals, .GetHashCode - the methods you get on a type but not on an instance. Visual Studio 10 also highlights this, in the definition of the function the bits "x as Stellung" and "y as Stellung" are written in light blue, meaning it is a type and not an actual object. How do I access the things I want to compare inside my class?
Implementing IList (Of T) In Generic Class
Jun 26, 2009I am creating a generic class that is Implementing IList(Of T) which requires that I implement the GetEnumorator of both IEnumerable(Of T) and IEnumerable. When looking at the members of IList(Of T) I see only one GetEnumorator function, yet it implements IEnumerable(Of T) and IEnumerable. How can I use one function to implement both interfaces when the function definitions only vary by return type?

Serialize A Class That Contains A Generic List?
Oct 7, 2010I am trying to serialize a class that contains a generic list, and I am finding it all works with the exception of the generic list property. That is to say the other properties are serialized fine and no error is produced.
I have in the past serialized an arraylist - but I thought it was possible to do a generic list in the same way.
Am I missing something or is it not possible to serialize/deserialize a generic list - I have read mixed comments on this..
The relevant parts of the class that gets serialized is defined as..
<XmlInclude(GetType(cConfigUser)), _

Shared Class With Generic Methods?
Jan 28, 2010I have created a Interface and a couple classes that implement this Interface. I am in the process of developing a Shared Class that utilizes the functions that each of the individual classes have, due to the interface implementation.What i need to know is how do i develop this Shared Class so that way each of the methods within it are restricted to a single data type. This single data type needs to be restricted to any class that has implemented the Interface.
Some examples:
Public Interface IVector(Of T)
Sub Add(ByVal v2 as T)
[code]....
As you can see it would allow me to develop one form, since i have standardized the required Subs/Functions for any class the implements the IVector interface. As i am still in developement, i was wondering if my current understanding of the method generics is correct in its current form or what i would have to do to make the Generic Shared Class work in the fashion that i am looking for in the example implementation.

.net - Fetch A Shared Member From A Class When It Is A Generic Type?
Nov 4, 2011I have a bunch of classes that all contain a Shared ReadOnly Dictionary. If I want to access that Dictionary when the class is a generic type (such as when I have a wrapper function that takes T as an interface that all of these classes implement), what's the way to do it?
I want to do something like GetType(T).GetMember("Dict"), but that will return a MemberInfo type, and that cannot be cast to a Dictionary of my defined type(s). For calling functions this way, one can use a delegate + CreateDelegate + GetMethod. But there doesn't seem to be an equivalent Create*for GetMember stuff. Or am I missing something?
If I plug the GetMember call into the immediate window, and then use a subscript as if it is an array, then the debug output says I am getting a Dictionary back. But if I use that same approach in the actual function that I am trying to write, then I get an error about System.Reflection.MemberInfo cannot be converted to Dictionary(X, Y)
