Referencing An Object Using A Variable String In Visual Basic 2010

Oct 8, 2010

I have several sets of similar objects (labels, progress bars) on a form in Visual Basic 2010 on Windows. In my code, I have collections that contain data, which needs to be pushed into the value/text property of each.

I would like to get a solution similar to PHP in that I can assign values somewhat like:

For ID as Integer from 0 to count(collectionExample)
lblExample{ID}.Text=collectionExample(variableID)

...and as such to loop through so each of the different lblExample's were updated to their corresponding value.

The issue I have come to is that I cannot seem to reference an object on the form using a variable. I have also tried using something like

CallByName("lblExample" + variableID, "Text", CallType.Set, exampleCollection(variableID))... however I still can't combine the string and variable to reference the object.

Any solutions on referring to objects in VB2010 by combining a string prefix and a variable string identifier, similar to PHP's $variable{$variable} approach?

Edit: Windows Platform

Visual Basic .net - Call Procedure From A Variable Name?

Jan 19, 2010

Is there a way to call a procedure in Visual Basic (.net) with a variable name? For example, the variable strColour can be one of 10 pre-defined values, green blue black white red pink orange yellow indigo purple. How to handle each one is in it's own Sub Routine, colgreen, colblue, colblack and so on.

I can use a bunch of if..then..else and select case, but what I'd like to have is something like VBA Excel's Run "col" & strColour

.net - Which Version Of Visual Studio 2010 Contains Visual Basic SharePoint Templates

Aug 5, 2011

Does anybody know which version of Visual Studio 2010 contains the full set of Visual Basic SharePoint Templates? I am about to embark on a project to create Visual Web Parts to be used in a SharePoint report.

At the moment I am using Visual Studio 2008 and even though the WSPBuilder is installed none of the relevant SharePoint templates are present.Having searched SO and the web, most advise to install the templates via the Visual Studio command prompt: devenv /installvstemplates

Alas the Visual Studio command prompt is also missing from my VS2008 installation.So, the question remains: which version of VS2010 contains what I need for pain-free SharePoint development? There is a rather large price different between VS2010 Professional and VS2010 Premium, so can anyone tell me if the cheaper version (VS2010 Professional) contains all the Sharepoint templates?

Constructing An Object Without Assigning It In Visual Basic.NET?

Feb 11, 2011

I've used VB.net for several years now, but keep coming across little quirks that I don't know how to work around. Curiosity finally got the best of me, so I ask now: is there a way to create an object without assigning it?For example, say I have an Engine class, that I want to instantiate and have it immediately do whatever it needs to do. If there's nothing I need to do with Engine after creating it, I have, till now, done something like:dim myEngine as new Engine()Is there a way to avoid the "dim myEngine as" part? You certainly can in Java. I could just create an object with "new Engine()" in java and not assign it to anything.

Why do I need this? Because often I want to create a delegate object (hence I called it "engine") that performs some functionality, but otherwise I don't need to ever reference it. I used to have such objects have a "public sub perform", but have found that cumbersome -- I'd rather just create the object and not worry about remembering to call its perform method. And I find it aesthetically displeasing to create references to objects that I don't intend to use
