View 1 RepliesVS 2005 Saving Battery Level Variable To Text File?
Jul 28, 2010Currently, I've encountered a problem where I do not how I can store the variable of my battery level in a text file. I tried .xml and .txt file and it returns me text which can't be read.The code related:
vb.net
[code]Dim psBattery As PowerStatus = SystemInformation.PowerStatus
Dim perFull As Single = psBattery.BatteryLifePercent
[code]....
The place where I do not know what to insert is the "Insert Battery Percentage Here" part so I guess that's the problem.For your info, if you were to use a MsgBox to display, the code which displays that would be <MsgBox("Total battery power remaining: " & perFull * 100 & "%")>

View 2 RepliesFor Each Variable Acting Like A Local Var?
Apr 21, 2011I stumbled upon something i don't quite see the logic of. Let's ork with following piece of code:
For Each ds As DerivedScale In List
If ds.ScaleID = scaleId Then
ds.ScaleID = ds.ScaleID + scaleStep
[Code].....
This piece is written for 2 records to change place and change the sequence number (scaleid). The arrow indicates where the issue occurs. The item "ds" is replaced by the object 1 indexnumber higher/lower. This does however not effect that object in the List. So when i check, item ds isn't set.
However, when i look at ds.ScaleId = ds.ScaleID + scaleStep, this is reflected in the List.
So what I am wondering is: is "ds" acting like a local variable here, and can i only make changes to it's properties?
Global Vs Local Variable
Mar 22, 2010I'm writing a subneting calculator in VB.NET.I'm using the IDE SharpDevelop.Well my problem is I'm using a function to do some calculations and then to figure out the class of the IP addresses.Well I pass a variable from the subroutine, that is accessed when a button is clicked, to the function then the variable is passed back to the subroutine and then the variable is passed again to another function but when it reaches this second function it doesn't retain the value it was given in the first function.I'm not sure if I'm just passing the variable wrong or if this is how it works.I know I can make this work probably by using global variables but I'm not sure if this is proper. So my ultimate question is what is the difference between local and global variables besides just scope and should I try and use one more than the other.
View 4 RepliesInstantiate Local Variable By Value?
Jan 7, 2010I sort of understand why this is happening, but not entirely. I have a base class with a Shared (Static) variable, declared like so:
Public Shared myVar As New MyObject(arg1, arg2)
In a method of a derived class, I set a local variable like so:
Dim myLocalVar As MyObject = myVar
Now when I do something like myLocalVar.Property1 += value, the value in Property1 persists to the next call of that method! I suppose I get why it would be happening; myVar is being set by reference instead of by value, but I've never encountered anything like this before. Is there any way (other than my workaround which is to just create a new object using the property values of myVar) to create myLocalVar by value?

View 3 RepliesHow To Add Event Handler To Local Variable
Apr 25, 2012I have a form in VB.NET that is used as a dialog in a mainform. Its instances are always locally defined, there's no field for it. When the user clicks the OK button in the dialog, it will fire an event with exactly one argument, an instance of one of my classes. Since it is always a local variable, how can I add an event handler for that event?
Code for the event, a field in MyDialog:
public Event ObjectCreated(ByRef newMyObject as MyObject)
Code for the main form to call dialog : (never mind the syntax)
Dim dialog As New MyDialog()
dialog.ShowDialog(Me)
AddHandler ObjectCreated, (what do I put here?) //Or how do I add a handler?

.net - Declare A Local Variable Whenever Access A Property?
May 7, 2011say i have an auto property Public Property P As Integer and everytime I want to read this variable P in a function, i will declare a local variable as such: dim _p = P then read _p instead of P. I'm wondering does it make sense at all? will it actually make things slower (which of course isn't my intention).Btw if we change the question to Public Property P As Object is there any change in the answer?

Should A Local Variable Call Dispose Method And Set To Nothing?
Oct 14, 2009I have 2 question, hope somebody give me an explanation: 1. Should a local variable call dispose method and set to nothing? 2.

Force A Compile-time Warning / When Using An Unassigned Local Variable?
Nov 15, 2010Today I discovered that something I had assumed about VB.NET for many years was not true (worrying!). I assumed that a variable declared within a loop had a lifetime of the iteration it was declared in, but in fact it seems it has a lifetime of the whole procedure.[code]I had assumed an output of False, True, False, True but instead it is actually False, True, True, True..In C# the equivalent code would not compile as you would get a compile time error of Error "Use of unassigned local variable 'var1'".I realise there are many ways to fix this and that best practice would be to declare the variable outside of the loop and reset it at the beginning of every loop through.I find this behaviour so counter-intuitive to me that I would like at least a compile time warning in VB.NET when/if I do this. (I could also then set this on any projects I already have and get warning that would allow me to check that my assumptions aren't causing errors).Does anyone know how/if I can get this to generate a compile time warning in VB.NET? Am I the only one that finds this counter-intuitive?
View 1 RepliesGained By Using The Function Itself To Hold The Return Value Instead Of Declaring A Local Variable?
Oct 28, 2010What's best practice (in VB.Net):
Function GetSomething() as String
GetSomething = "Here's your string"
End Function
or
Function GetSomething() as String
Dim returnString as String = "Here's your string"
Return returnString
End Function
Obviously, neither of these implementations make any sense, but they're just meant to illustrate my point. Is there anything to be gained by using GetSomething itself to store the return value instead of declaring returnString locally and then returning that (does it avoid having an extra string allocated/instantiated - and if so, are there any performance/memory benefits)?

Saving Variable Between Uses?
Oct 27, 2009I have written all that is required at this point and have published the program. I thought that global variables were saved when the program terminated but, as I found out, they aren't. If anyone has any way of making the variables keep their values between uses of the program I would be very grateful as if the program is being run for the first time some global variables need to be set straight away (I have done this code). The variable types are: one boolean and a few strings.
