Returning New Array Dimension From Within Function
Jun 22, 2011
I'm trying to return changes to array data, including redimensioned arrays, from within a function call in code similar to:
fault = MyFunction(Array1, Array2)
Public Function MyFunction(ByVal inObj1 as UserStruture(), ByVal inObj2 and Integer(,)) as String
Dim myResult as String = "Failed"
Dim tmpStruct() as UserStructure = inObj1
[Code] .....
This works fine in updating the input array 'Array1', only when the redimensioning of tmpStruct is NOT performed. After redimensioning tmpStruct, the redimensioned array is passed back successfully into 'inObj1' within the function 'MyFunction', but is not passed out of the function call; i.e.
fault = MyFunction(Array1, Array2) -
The dimension of array 'Array1' out of the function call remains as it was before the function call. However, the data change; i.e.
tmpStruct(0).Nam = "New Name"
is passed successfully out of the function call.
Why the Redim operation is not passed back out of such function calls. I would like to return changes to arrays 'Array1' and 'Array2', plus a result string from the function call if I can. Furthermore, I would also like to change the dimension of the array within the function call, if required, and return the complete redimensioned array back out of the function call.
I need to return an array but the array size will change from one call of the function to another so I need away to storing the returned array. The function is as below, and as you can see the returned array will be of different sizes:
Im overiding getRolesForUser() I have 2 columns i return from the query IAdapter.GetRolesByUserName(userName) returns two columns (roleID, formID) How can I return them and access the two columns data? 2 dimensional array?
I'm having trouble finding out how define this function so I can return the arrayRight now I am defining the returnobject as 'object' but I would like to do it properly.The Function goes something like this:
I should be able to pass an array of numbers, calculate average, lowest number, highest number, and standard deviation.the function returns an array containing the results. I dim public data
Public dataArray() As Double Public DataIndex As Integer = 4 Private Function CalculateData(ByRef dtArray() As Double) As Double()
[code]....
I get an "error Number of indices is less than the number of dimensions of the indexed array" stats()If I add a dimension there like stats(Dataindex) I get an error "Value of type '1-dimensional array of Double' cannot be converted to 1-dimensional array of double".
How do I use only one dimension of an array? What I have going on is: I have an array suit(1, 4) and rank(1, 13) to represent a deck of cards. What I want to do is take the value of the rank of the selected item in my listbox to be able to add it to the rank of other selected items in the listbox (essentially adding the players hand together).

I have an application in VBA that gives to my VB.Net dll one bi-dimensional variant. It is a an array, in which every component is a another array containing two positions.
I want to get this two-position array. When I am using VBA I can access directly the data from each position by doing:dataArray(index, 0) or dataArray(index, 1)And when I want to get the two-position array I can use:
Dim posArray as variant posArray = dataArray(index)
My brain may just be fried since it's the end of the semester, but my teacher kicked this back to fix and resubmit...she said that I am "returning the name of your function rather than your variable name".
Here is my code for all 3 forms.

These are forms to calculate the cost of getting a cell phone package.
I need to add an additional dimesion to outputArrayOfBits() in the code below which I hope conveys my intention. I need to convert a one dimensional array of 1 to n boolean (bit) values into arrays that group them by 8's so the output can be consumed by someone needing these values to be in hex format (0000 1111) = 0F How do I change the declaration of 'outputArrayOfBits and the nested control loop to achieve that?
Dim inputArrayOfBits As New BitArray(32, True) ' I can't change this. 'Create array of bytes containing what will be sent out has hex numbers 0 - F 'outputArrayOfBits(0) = (1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1) 'Hex value FF
I need to manipulate data for 1000 boxes, each one of these boxes has 8 variables.How to declare an appropriate array? and how to load the array with the 8 variables for each box?
I am trying to create a multi dimension array that will search each row of the array and total up the number of 0's 1's, 2's, and 3's. I believe that I need to create some sort of looping structure that will search through each row of the array.I have created a listbox that will allow the user to pick which row of the array the program will search.This is what I have created so far, but I am only just learning and I am having trouble wrapping my head around how arrays work. So I'm not sure if I am on the right path or not.
Dim racescores(,) As Integer = {{0, 1, 0, 3, 2}, {1, 0, 2, 0, 0}, {0, 3, 0, 1, 0},
I have the following array in my project that I'm trying to redim without losing the values.The problem with redim preserve is I can only redim the last dimension of the array. I want to redim the 2nd dimension without losing data. How do I get this to work?[code]
i have used in vba 3 dimensional jagged arrays where i had up to 10000 rows. i am now transferring this to vb.net and learnt that it would be better to work with lists. the dimensions are such as (30, 10000, 30). how would i structure this by using lists?
I retired recently from a job where we had VS2010 Professional for doing ourdevelopment. Now that I'm retired I can't afford "Pro" and cannot find the component than looks like this (see above). Is/was that component left out of the "Express" version? Do I have to "load" it (and, if so, what name should I look for)? I vaguely remember it being some kind of container for other components.As a follow-up question - can anyone provide a (readable) example of creating a two dimension array of this item I could study?
I have a grid 10x10, at present is in the form of a multi-dimensional array:
my_Array(10, 10) as char
[Code]...
Additionally this shape can be in any orientation and more than 1 as in the above example.Does anyone know a quick way to do this? e.g regex?Or alternatively achieving the same result by using a different structure rather than a multi-dimentional array?
I'll explain what I'm working to eliminate the assumptions of a brute forcer. I'm working a Random SQL Data generator. What I need is a way to create a multi-dimensional array from multiple word lists, 1 dimension per word list. I have tried a few different things and nothing I've tried works. However, I have got it to work with a single word list and an array of 1. I figured there is a more efficient way of doing this than writing a massive block of select case and using multiple 1 dimensional arrays, this would end up very messy and inefficient it seems.No this is not for homework, this is for personal learning use only.I would post my code, but like I said, nothing I've tried comes close to working.
I have a gridview in my asp.net website that and I use vb for the code behind. Each time a row is bound an even called the Gridview_RowDatabound event is fired. So what I am doing is looping through all the cells in that row: [Code]
Problem is I get an error saying redim can only change the rightmost dimension. It would suit my needs to change both dimensions here as my final result will be to total each column in the array. what other method can i use if arrays don't suit this task.
returning a function value? I have a simple function that returns an integer. This function works fine when executed in SQL Developer but, when called from my apps, it always returns 2 regardless of anything. I have checked it over and over again, I cant seems to find where I am going wrong.
what changes I need to make to the code so that when no value for intPosition is found the textbox txtRoomNumber remains blank? At the moment a value is being entered into the textbox when no value for intPosition is found.
Code: Private Sub btnFindRoom_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnFindRoom.Click Dim strRoomType As String Dim intRoomNumber As Integer
Public Function Checked() As Boolean Return applyChange 'this is a string! End Function
Whats going on here? How can a function with return type Boolean actually return a string? I'm assuming theres some implicit conversion going on here, which I'd rather not have.
I am hopeing someone can help me here with a recursive function I have that is not returning either true or false as I would have espected it to. The function loops through a Active Directory group for its members and then calls itself if it encounters any groups within the membership in order to gets its members as well. I am trying to return either true or false based on if any errors were encountered but not haveing any luck at all. It appears to just hang and never return back to the primary calling sub that starts the recursive function. Below is my code I am using:
If an object is created inside a function and the function returns that type of oject how is the memory handled.
Example:
Public Function GetEmployee(employeeid as integer) as employee Dim oEmployee as new employee oEmployee.FirstName="Bob"
[code]....
Does the variable that receive the object still a pointer to the memory location that was used inside the function?What about when you do a oEmployee2=oEmployee.Is oEmployee2 just a pointer? And any changes to oEmployee will now affect the other. Just trying to understand it from a memory perspective and how that scope works?
