Same Name Methods In Different Modules Cause Ambiguity
May 20, 2010
I have 2 modules. Each contains a Sub with the same name. See below:
Module moduleA
Public Sub f(ByVal arg1 As myType)
Console.WriteLine("module A")
End Sub
End Module
Module moduleB
Public Sub f(ByVal arg1 As myType, ByVal arg2 As Boolean)
Console.WriteLine("module B")
End Sub
End Module
But the compiler complains that there's ambiguity between moduleA and moduleB. I have totally different signatures. However, if I put the 2 methods into the same module, there's no ambiguity at all.

Yesterday I opened Visual Studio (2008 v 9.0.30729.1) and all the winform classes in my project display with class module icons with the little 'VB', instead of form module icons with the little form icon!
When I double click on a form module, the form designer doesn't open, just the code module.
When I run the project, it runs fine. There are no errors. The project builds fine.
I did Project --> show all files, and I can see the designer and resx files below the form module which doesn't look or act like a form module.
I can't open my forms to design them!

Today I ran into an issue with LINQ to objects (not SQL) that popped up due to a typo. I had a .Select one place and a .Where in another place. I was expecting same result but they are showing different numbers. Assume somelist has 10 elements with all elements having qty = 0

The codes below are exactly the same, except that one is C# and the other one is VB.Net.C# compiles just fine, but VB.Net throws the warning:
Interface 'System.IObserver(Of Foo)' is ambiguous with another
implemented interface 'System.IObserver(Of Bar)' due to the 'In' and
'Out' parameters in 'Interface IObserver(Of In T)'
Why does VB.Net show the warning and not C#? And most important, how can I resolve this problem?
Obs: I'm using .Net Framework 4 with Visual Studio 2010 Ultimate.
VB.Net Code:
Module Module1
Sub Main()[code]......

A client of ours reported that when trying to use our .NET .DLL in VB.NET they receive the error:error BC31429: 'OurClass' is ambiguous because multiple kinds of members with this name exist in namespace 'our.company.nspace' I've also been able to reproduce the error with a dummy project containing the single line of
Dim x as our.company.nspace.OurClass Normally this is because there are several types with names differing only in case. But in this case there is no such ambiguity. OurClass is a unique name not only in the specific namespace but in the whole assembly and any other assemblies referenced by the project. Reflector also shows this. There are also no class members with the same name, also verified by Reflector.
Also a weird thing is that the error wasn't there immediately after I created the dummy project, and then it suddenly appeared and now it doens't go away anymore. In fact I didn't even change anything between the two recompiles from which the first one worked, and the second didn't.

This is the original code in c#
public class CategoryRepository: RepositoryBase<Category>, ICategoryRepository
{
public CategoryRepository(IDatabaseFactory databaseFactory)
: base(databaseFactory)
[Code]...
Does anyone has an idea what i should change to let it work and let my UserRepository use the methods in RepositoryBase while implementing the IUserRepository?

I am not sure how clear my question is by the title, but I am trying to make Class methods instead of Instance methods in Visual Basic that way I don't have to waste memory and code creating temporary objects to execute methods that don't need instance variables.
I am not sure if you can do that in VB but I know you can in Objective-C by using either a "+" or "-" sign in front of the method declaration. And in C++ (at least I think, I can't remember) you put the static keyword or const keyword in front of the function.How would I do this in VB if it is possible? Or should I just make a separate set of functions that are not members of a class?

using bas files in visual basic 6 because I could write functions or subs that I would just easily use over and over rather than keep rewriting code. Do these work in the same way in .net? If anyone has any good info on modules like how to start writing functions and subs. Assuming of course that they work like vb6 bas files. If I were to make this sub a function how would I do this and I am assuming the benefit of this specific example would be a Boolean to check if if saved the text file or not?
Code:
Public Sub SaveList(ByVal List As ListBox, ByVal filename As String)
Dim i As Integer
Dim w As IO.StreamWriter

During the design of a new application I was wondering if using a module with properties is considered to be a bad practice. Some example code:
Module modSettings
public property Setting1 as string
public property DatabaseObject as IDatabaseObject
End Module
The code above is just an example to emphasize my question. In the past, this structure was used a lot in VB6. In the past I used it as well in my .NET projects.
But nowadays with buzzwords like Dependency Injection, Testability and Separation of Concerns the above structure smells bad. I can't really describe why, but it just feels wrong. I must admit I'm not very familiar with the keywords above, yet.So I'm wondering whether the above code really is a bad practice. If so, what would you use a Module for?

What advantage is there, if any, to using Modules rather than classes in VB? How do they differ, and what advantages/disadvantages are there in using modules? In VB or VB.NET, I use both.

I have finished creating the code for my client/server application although both parts currently execute modules/in console(this was for testing purposes).I am now looking at making both parts of the program completely invisible (they will eventually be executed as a Windows service upon startup). How do i go about this? Does the code need to be copied in to a "Windows Service" project, or is there a way I can hide both of the modules upon execution?

I'm using Visual Studio 2010 and coding in VB.NET.
My problem is that I've collected all the modules I've written and intend to reuse and placed them in a separate folder. When I want to add a module from the above folder to any given project, it takes a copy of the module and places in the project's source code folder, instead of referencing the module in the folder containing all the other modules.
Is it possible to include a module in my project and leave it in the folder with all the other modules, so that when I improve upon a module, it'll affect all the projects that uses/references that module. Instead of me having to manually copy the new module to all the projects that uses/references the module. Right now I have multiple instances of the exact same module that i need to update manually when I improve code or add functionality?

Im writing a application in visual basic to tell the user about their pc.
All this is in a module
Imports Microsoft.VisualBasic.Devices
Imports System.Management
Imports System.Net
Imports System.IO
[Code]...
The problem I am having is that if one of the things in the module fails such as if the users graphics card does not have any onboard memory then it will fail.This is causing everything else to fail aswell.I am very new to visual basic so ifyou could please excuse me if I have made any stupidly obvious errors and any suggestions are welcome

I have been brought onto a project where a large amount of code has been written. Most of the code is appearing in the MainWindow.xaml.vb file (yes, this is a wpf project but I think the question is appropriate for this forum). The folks who developed the previous versions in Visual Basic 6 told me that they organized their code by using Modules. I was not aware of this practice and I have actually never even used modules. Can I use modules in this way so that I can logically group different areas of functionality within the application? Or is there a more preferred method?

I have read many many forums regarding the error message "No symbols have been loaded. The breakpoint will not be hit." I had this error message come up a while ago, so I opened a previous version of my project, and copied the newest version of the code I am working on into that project. Then when I debugged, everything worked fine...for a while. Then I got the error message back, so I did the same thing again, and who would have guessed the error message returned, out of the blue. I am working on the program and it works fine, then suddenly one time when I try to debug with a breakpoint I get that message again. So I did some more research and I found a post that recommended looking at the Modules window while debugging (under debug > windows > modules). And in this window under my project, it said "Cannot find or open the PDB file". However, I compared this to the previous version of the program, that works fine, and I noticed that under Path, for my project, the path that I see is not the path where my project is located. So what I am asking is can someone please tell me how to change that path to the correct path where my files are actually located? I believe that if the path is correct, it will find and load the symbols.

I have learned that if I want my crystal reports to work on the client machines when they install my program, I have to include some merge modules. I have VB .Net 2003 and Crystal Reports 10. The merge modules that are included with VS Studio .Net 2003 are not included in the program software I have. Is it possible to download these merge modules somewhere else and use them with my software? If so, can someone give me a link on where to get them?

I have a big project in vb.net with over a 400 forms and datasets and 100 reports. I deploy it using clickatonce. I want to split it into modules so each user will use the core project plus the modules his department needs, so when I make an update to a module he will take only this update and not the whole project as I am doing now.

I am doing a VB.NET course, there is a question in one of my assignments - "How many modules can you have in one program?" This seems like something that should be easy to find, but I have not been able to find it anywhere.Can anyone direct me to a resource that would have this? My initial thought is unlimited, although in practical terms, if you have an excess number of modules, then you probably need to re-think your workflows.

I am not a program designer by any means but I would really like to start getting a better grasp of how to do it and a better understanding of the .NET languages in general (VB, C#). I was reading a book by Wrox - Professional Visual Basic 2008. In it I believed it mentioned that Modules are slowly going out of existence. I can see why most coding would go into a class object but I would assume modules would always be necessary to at least keep the code clean.
Also, I have been searching for a good source on software design but I can't seem to find any recent books published. I might be searching in the wrong places but I would really like to get my hands on one.

Is it ok to use some classes and modules inside a single VB file ?
At present, I used to create them in separate files by choosing Project menu --> Add Class/Module
I was thinking about combing them into one file. Is there any merit or demerit on this approach ?

I have a frm_Main, which starts a thread. The thread then goes and calls a module, which has a thread.sleep() in it. This causes the mouse to freeze up while it sleeps, despite being called by the child thread. I thought this would have be on the thread time-slice? However it is causing my form to freeze for the sleep duration.
