Pass Type To A Function In Program?
Jul 29, 2009I get a compile error Type "ctltype" is not defined with this code.
This is .NET 1.1 legacy code so not good I know.[code]...

After reading this post i realized that i cannot pass an anonymous type as a parameter to a function. So what other options do i have?
Perhaps, passing a Query.ToList as parameter would help, or am i re-inventing the wheel?
Update: I have the following query, which i would like to pass to a function:
Sub Test
Dim Query = (From c In DB Select New With { .ElementName = c.Name })
DoSomething(Query)

I have a following code which works fine

I'm trying to create a function that searches up a WebControl's parent-child relationship (basically the opposite of WebControl.FindControl(id as String), but looking for a specific WebControl type).
Example
I have a user control in an ItemTemplate for a GridViewRow. I'm trying to reference the GridViewRow from the user control. The user control may or may not be inside a div or other types of controls, so I don't know exactly how many parent's up to look (i.e. I can't just use userControl.Parent.Parent). I need a function that will find the first GridViewRow that it finds on the way up the parent-child hierarchy.
I want to pass an optional parameter to a function of type System.Drawing.Color. The problem I am having is that when I declare the function it says "Constant expression is required" but I have tried variations of the following, including integers, full qualified indentifiers, even old vbWhite constants to no avail.

I want to make an numerical integration method with takes in an analytic function and integrate it over a specific interval. For the numerical integration procedure I want to use some procedures in nr.com. The problem is that these are programmed in C++ and they uses functors to pass a function to the integration method. How can I do this in VB 2010?
I want to initialize the function (i.e. set a=1,b=0 for function y(x)=a*x+b) and then pass the function to the integration method. Then when the integration method call the function it only calls the function with one parameter (i.e. x since a,b is already set)
What is the best way to do this in VB2010?I want to make a general integration method where I can pass any single valued function and integration limits.
I have just started using VB, and from what I have found so far it seems like the tools you have is
- to us a delegate for the function
- to use a lambda expression for the function
- send a pointer/adressOf
- to create a function class/structure and submit this to the function
As for now I am most inclined to create a function-class. But I am not really sure how.F.ex. I make different classes for each "uniqe function" I want to integrate, but how can I pass them to the integration function when I need to specify the argument type in the integration-function-call?This seems like a basic problem which applies to many Math operations, so I think it would be very useful to clarify this.

The variables in the brackets [example] do not actually have brackets in them in the original code. These are where the issues are. For both variables, it says, "The type for variable [variable] will not be inferred because it is bound to a field in an enclosing scope. Either change the name of [variable], or use the fully qualified name (for example, 'Me.[variable]' or 'MyBase.[variable]')." Now, I'm not entirely sure if this is a stupid question or not, as I'm used to VB '98 because that's what we use in my programming class at High School. let me know why this won't work.
-Note: The intention of this program is to continually loop the generation of numbers for this list until I tell it to stop. Button1 ends the program, Button2 generates the list one time only, Button3 is supposed to loop the generation of the list, and Button4 is supposed to end the loop, but not the program.
What does this error mean in VB6? Function or interface marked as restricted, or the function uses an Automation type not supported in Visual Basic.

I have the following sub which works for the type "Button". I would like to make it general by having a parameter that is assigned a type rather than "Button" being hard wired. Can this be done? How do you pass a type? I tried the parameter "ByVal t as Type" but the compiler complained when I used t as a type and I also tried inserting (Of T)but the compiler complained about CType(control,T).
how add type as an input to this sub?
Public Shared Sub Example(ctrl As Control, items As ToolStripItemCollection)
For Each control As Control In ctrl.Controls
If TypeOf control Is Button Then
Dim butt As Button = CType(control, Button)
determine which component had been clicked?
Just so it's known, this question is mostly academic, even though I tried to use the concept in a real-world solution. I realize the example is contrived, but I believe the concept is valid.I want to write some fluent code like this:
[code]...
I realize that I can't force an anonymous type into a specific type (like implementing an interface or some other class), and I don't want the overhead of defining a specific class just to match my desired fluent name with the actual method name. So I was able to make the code work like this:
copy(my_first_file).to.Invoke(my_second_file)So there is no IntelliSense or type awareness there, and I have to include the Invoke in order to have the method run. How can I get more type safety and exclude the Invoke method, under these constraints: Anonymous Type returned from Method No additional classes or interfaces Preferably, I do not want to pass in another parameter to the copy() method that tells what type to return, unless copy becomes a generic method (but I think that means defining another class/interface, which I don't want to do)
I have a statement:
dat.XoaNhanVien(Me.dtgcapnhatthongtin.CurrentRow.Cells(1).Value, message)
That is a function for deleting info. Now I want to create other function and get above function to parameter. I mean:

View 3 RepliesI'm trying to pass 2 bitarrays to a function that ANDs the bitarrays and returns the count of bits that are set to TRUE. However, something strange happens when I reference the bitarray from within the function and the results are non-sensical.
So I have output the bitarray contents before it is passed to the functionand they match the source data, then I output the contects of the bitarray from within the functiona and they are completely different.
I'm working on a VB.NET DLL right now, and one of the functions I'm writing is supposed to take a file, and clip out an array of bytes (the method I've got works, and can be abstracted away here). What's the best way to pass a file to this function? Would passing a filename to it be best, or what would be the best way to accomplish this?

I have an array of integers and I want to pass the array to a function that will add up the elements of the array and return the cumulative total of the elements of the array. So, if the array contains the values {1,2,3,4,5} the return value from the function would be 15.

if this is a dumb question. I don't ever have to write anything in VB.NET.But I am passing variables named "name" to a function and sometimes it may be 1 name or 2 names, etc. I want to check in the function if its only 1 name don't add a comma, if it's 2 names add a comma. Is there a way to get how many "names" there are?

I have Listview which databound to Dataset with about 20 items per row. I have a function which executes on each ItemTemplate appearance and gets about 10 params from Eval("something"). So basically one function builds and image from 10 parameters.Instead of passing 10 Eval("something") to the function is it possible to pass it whole row and how to use this row inside of function because it is not simple DataRow or ListView row which i can access as array of items (datacolumns).Reason i do that because function looks ugly and each time i need to change it i need to deal with dozens of items.
