Reflection For A List Properties Elements?

Oct 31, 2010

I am creating a dynamic clone method to be used in my custom classes. I want the clone function to be completely generic, so I do not have to make any changes when I add new properties to the class. I am having an issue with regards to making a deep copy a property that is a List. sample code that will enable me to identify with reflection that a property of my class is a List, and then more importantly the code to loop through the the List elements and copy of each of them. I have been able to identify a property as a List by using the NameSpace of the property type, but I'm not a big fan of that method. Either way, I have yet been able to dynamically loop and deep copy the elements of the property that's a List using reflection.

Mar 25, 2012

Is there a succint way in vb.net to create an array or similar of each of the properties in a list?

E.g. If I have a list of 'a' and each 'a' has a property 'b', I want to create an array which contains all the 'b's, in the same index positions as the original list.

.net - Reading Properties In Assembly Via Reflection?

Mar 19, 2011

I have a self-generated code in one assembly which in some of the lines includes properties, I was wondering how can I retrieve them? Especially when that class is a view object and does not contain any parameters so we can do it by data adapter and finding for example insert or update parameter.

C# - .NET Reflection Create Class Properties

Apr 28, 2009

how to create an instance of a class then add properties to the class, set those properties, then read them later. I don't have any code as i don't even know how to start going about this. C# or VB is fine.

My system has a dynamic form creator. one of my associates requires that the form data be accessible via web service. My idea was to create a class (based on the dynamic form) add properties to the class (based on the forms fields) set those properties (based on the values input for those fields) then return the class in the web service.

additionally, the web service will be able to set the properties in the class and eventually commit those changes to the db.

VS 2010 Reflection For Properties And SubProperties

I am able to use these COM objects but i do not want to due to several problems of binary compatibility on 3rd party software upgrades. So my only option was to use reflection since late binding won't work.I have several Interops and each one of them has several Classes, i do own the dlls structure, classes and methods names and definition but i am not able to use these with reflection due to my inexperience in this field.[code]

Access ExampleObject Properties By Reflection On My BaseExampleObject?

Dec 10, 2009

On my Bussiness Layer, I have something like

Dim object as New ExampleObject

Where ExampleObject inherits BaseExampleObject.I want to know how can I access ExampleObject Properties by reflection on my BaseExampleObject.

Something like:

MyBase.GetType.GetProperty("PropertyName").GetValue(mybase.gettype, Nothing)

Of course thats not going to work because this is not an instance of an object and if I instantiate a new object, I'll lose the reference from my Bussiness Layer.

Using Reflection To Find A Properties Definition Class?

May 18, 2008

I am currently using reflection to retrieve all properties of a class. I return a collection of PropertyInfo objects and all is working fine.

My problem is, I want to check if a property has been defined in a base class implementation and is therefore inherited in the current class.

Determine If Property Is Generic List<of T> Via Reflection And Loop List Items

Oct 1, 2009

I'm looping all the properties in an object via reflection:

For Each p As PropertyInfo In values.[GetType]().GetProperties()
If p.CanRead Then
'Do stuff
End If
Next

how to determine whether the property in question is a generic List(Of T)? If it is I need to loop the list itself.

I've experimented with GetType and TypeOf but have not managed to get anything working.

To clarify, I want to keep this generic. I do not want to specify the type of T, I need to loop the list items and call the ToString method on each item. T could be one of a number of different types (application specific reference types). Is it possible to do this without specifying types?

ASP.NET - Ascx.designer 'properties' Not Showing Up In Reflection At Runtime

Jul 2, 2010

I have a very simple setup, single mycontrol.ascx with assoicated mycontrol.ascx.designer.vb and mycontrol.ascx.vb file.

mycontrol.ascx embeds a single reference to a custom control: "MyMenu":

<mM:myMenu id="myMenu1" runat="server" />

This has created a protected reference in the mycontrol.ascx.designer.vb file:

Protected WithEvents myMenu1 As Global.CustomControls.MyMenu

Now, when I breakpoint the Page_Load() event of mycontrol.ascx, and inspect the members returned from the type via:

Me.GetType().GetMembers()

I cannot any reference to myMenu1. If I look at the control with intellisence, the property is accessible:

Me.myMenu1

what I'm missing and what I need to do to access designer created properties at runtime through reflection?

VS 2010 Reflection, Create A Class With Dynamically Named Properties?

May 11, 2010

I'm trying to make a very simple audio tag editor. The idea is that the user can select as many audio files as he likes from a ListView, and a PropertyGrid will then display their tags + their values.When multiple files are selected, I want the property grid to display the values of the tags that all files have in common, and display empty values for tags that the files do not have in common.As an example, look at the properties list in your Visual Studio IDE when you select multiple controls (of the same type for this matter). Select a few Button controls, for example, and notice that the properties whose values are the same (often things like Font, ForeColor, etc) are displayed. Also notice that the values for properties that are not the same (Text, Name, etc) are empty.

Visual Studio 2008 - Reflection - Iterate Object's Properties Recursively Within Own Assemblies?

Sep 11, 2009

I wonder if anyone can help me - I've not done much with reflection but understand the basic principles.What I'm trying to do:I'm in the process of developing a class that gathers a lot of information about the local system, network, etc... to be used for automated bug reporting. Instead of having to change my test harness every time I add a new property, I'd (ideally) like to be able to serialise the lot as an XML string and just display that in a textbox.

Unfortunately, the Framework won't use the default XML serializer on read-only properties (which almost all of mine are) as they wouldn't deserialize properly [Not sure I agree with the assumption that anything serialized must be de-serializable - MS says this is a feature "by design" which I suppose I can understand - Perhaps a tag to indicate that it should be serialized anyway would be advantageous?]

The initial approach was to make properties gettable and settable (with a throw exception on the setter) but the amount of work tidying this up afterwards seems a little excessive and I would want the properties to be read-only in the final version.What I need help with:My current plan is to use reflection to recursively iterate through each (public) property of my topmost gathering class. The problem is, the samples I've seen don't handle things recursively. Additionally, I only want to inspect an object's properties if it's in one of my assemblies - Otherwise just call .ToString on it.

If I don't have the inspection limited to my assembly, I assume I'll get (say) a string which then contains a Length which in turn will have .Tostring method.For the purposes of this project, I can almost guarantee no circular references within my code and as this will only be used as a development tool so I'm not too concerned about it running amok now and then.

Iterating Through A Panel In Change The Elements Properties?

Oct 10, 2011

First of all sorry for any grammar mistakes, english isn't my native language.I need to cycle through all the elements in my panel (full of "ImageBox") and change their images.

My code so far:I declare an array with my objects.

Dim OrdenCartas() As Object = {Ardilla, Ardilla, Cangrejo, Cangrejo, Morsa, Morsa, Oso, Oso, Pato, Pato, Pinguino, Pinguino, PinguinoPaleta, PinguinoPaleta, Serpiente, Serpiente}

Then I call this method (I have doubts in this one)

Create Local Copy Of A List To Be Able To Change Elements Only In New List?

Oct 26, 2011

This is probably a really basic question - but I have a list of items (custom objects) being passed from one winform (.net 3.5) to another. I want to create a local list to store changes that only get persisted if the user clicks save. Currently if the user clicks cancel - the changes are still applied in the first form because I assume the objects are reference type.I have the save working as it calls a service layer to do the save and then refreshes the other form - but not the cancel.

Reflection Instances To Get A List Of Applications Running

Jun 18, 2009

I have created a simple windows forms application. I would like to be able to connect to that running application and view certain properties from a seperate windows form application. In VB6 I would have run the first application and then called GetObject to connect to the instance. Does anybody know how I could do this in .Net. I'm guessing I'd have to use reflection to get a list of applications running and then somehow connect to them but I'm not sure how to do this?

Re-arranging Elements In List(Of T)?

Apr 7, 2011

I got a list of objects. Each object has a property called Z (integer).There will come a point during run-time I will want to re-arrange such objects in my list depending on their Z property. The objects with lower Z go first in the list, and the ones with higher will go last.I have thought of a couple things, like making a new List, then loop through each object in the original list as many times as the amount of objects such list has (so if it has 10 objects, I would loop 100 times), and each iteration will check the Z values. When a cycle is done (for every 10 iterations), I will remove the object with the lowest Z number in cycle and add it to the new List. And so on until the 100 iterations are done.

Generate Combinations Of Elements Of A List<T> In .NET 4.0?

Jul 13, 2009

I would like a function generate all of the k-combinations of elements from a List of n elements. Note that I am looking for combinations, not permutations, and that we need a solution for varying k (i.e., hard-coding the loops is a no-no).

I am looking for a solution that is a) elegant, and b) can be coded in VB10/.Net 4.0.

This means a) solutions requiring LINQ are ok, b) those using the C# "yield" command are not.

The order of the combinations is not important (i.e., lexicographical, Gray-code, what-have-you) and elegance is favored over performance, if the two are in conflict.

(The OCaml and C# solutions here would be perfect, if they could be coded in VB10.)

Copying Elements From List Where Frequency Is Custom Class

Sep 21, 2010

I'm trying to copy the elements from a List(Of Frequency) where Frequency is a custom class I have made. Everything in the other places seems alright but the problem seems to be with the copying, where it still references the original table, so changing the values of one changes the original. I've tried the List.CopyTo() method and tried converting to and array with List.ToArray and then using Array.Copy but it seems they always change the original. I've also tried a for loop and create and New instance of the classes but that doesn't work either. What I'm using it for is to pass the List(Of Frequency) to a new Task to do multitasking(), if anyone can think of a better method to pass a List(Of Frequency), or an array to to a task and have it not change the original.
