I need some tips for shared variable to share the information for multiple running application. For example, the value of variable become 1 when a user run the first instance(execution), and become 2 when the user executes the second(in sames OS or through network).
View 3 RepliesI am a former IT student and have not used VB in a little while but feel it can come in handy to help me complete some tasks at work.I am trying to write a small program which will open a url + a number for each number entered into the textbox. As an example lets say the website is "www.google.com/id=" and I enter into a textbox 3 values such as "134,325,2112", www.google.com/id=134, www.google.com/id=325 and www.google.com/id=2112 would all open at once.
The purpose of this is at work, we have an employee database and would like to load multiple employees at once (upto 6 at a time) to compare profiles. The issue with doing this manually is we have to fill out the search criteria for each, instead, I would like to load a link with parameters in it already filled out + the employee number we are searching for each number entered into a textbox on a VB form.
I've taken over the maintenance of the website (ASP.NET VB) and on one particular page I noticed the below code
Inherits System.Web.UI.Page
Public Shared UserNumber As String
Private Sub Page_Init(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Init
[Code]....
My question is whether the variable UserNumber can be accessed or changed by any other user than the current one?
I seem to be drawing a blank. I'd like to create a "shared" variable that is shared with all instances of a class but not classes that inherit from it. For example.Class A: Shared list As New List(Of String): list.Add("A")
Class B Inherits A: list.Add("B")Class C Inherits B: list.Add("C")The end result I'd like is that any instance of A has just A in the list. Any instance of B has A and B in the list. Any instance of C has A, B, and C in the list. I can accomplish it by creating Instance variables, but I have to construct the list for each instance of a class. I'd like to construct it once for a specific point in the Hierarchy and then share it accross other instances of that class.
I have a window application develpoed in vs 2008, framework 3.5, in which i have put a button.. Now where i click that button the other text boxes are filled up with the data from database thru web service.. what i want is while all text boxes are being filled i want to show an animated loading gif image till data loading is completed in all the text boxes.. i have tried to use image picture box but while data is loading gif image is displyes but in static mode.. cant see animation... i think this is because data loading and animation both are done thru one UI thread..
View 8 RepliesI now have a need to dynamically load a dll into my application and I've found the reflection/assembly information and it's fairly easy to implement so I thought I was on my way. However, I quickly found out that I'm only able to use 'shared' methods. What I was originally thinking was I could have one shared method 'library.beginprocess' and then that would make all the necessary calls to the other methods, but this doesn't work unless all the other methods and class level objects are also shared.
I feel like I'm missing something or somethings just going right over my head. I've looked at many, many sites and examples, but I've only run across examples that expose 1 method,[URL]..which explain how to implement a plugin architechture, which I have not tried yet, but maybe would allow me to keep my class structure the same without having to make everything shared?

View 9 RepliesI am planning to use a shared variable to implement a logging facility. Have a look at the code below:
Imports System.IO
Public Class TestClass
Public Shared objError As New StreamWriter("C:Test.txt")

I think I have found my answer here: [URL] "A static variable continues to exist and retains its most recent value. The next time your code calls the procedure, the variable is not reinitialized, and it still holds the latest value that you assigned to it. A static variable continues to exist for the lifetime of the class or module that it is defined in."
I am not convinced that this is the best way to create a logging facility.

I currently have two forms, and I need to share the value of a variable in one of them.
I declared the variable to be 'Public Shared', and assigned a value to it. However,
when I inspect the value it appears as 'Nothing'. Here is the snippet:
Public Class A
Public Shared sVar As String = Nothing
Private Sub A_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load

I've been looking at using PROPERTIES [URL] but frankly I don't understand it that well. Before I invest the time to read, understand, and truly comprehend this, I want to make sure it's the best way. My intended goal is to create my database connection string in a function/sub somewhere, then assign it to this project wide string variable, then I can use it in any form, project wide without having to recreate it.

I have declared a class in VB.NET using VS2K5 with some shared variables and made that class a dllI made use of that dll in another project and tried to make use of those variables. Even though I can able to make use of them, Im unable to view the values of those variables like the values of normal variables when Im debugging. Is there any way that I can watch the values of those shared variables during debugging.
View 1 RepliesI've gone brain dead and can't remember how (where) to declare a variable to be shared by 2 forms (classes) in the same project.
View 2 RepliesHere's an example of what I'm talking about...
Public Class Sample1
Public Shared Function MyValue() As Integer
Return 0
End Function
Public Sub Code()
[Code]...
Me.MyValue gives a warning in VB.NET and (the equivalent code gives) an error in C#. Is there a particular reason for this? I find it more intuitive/natural to access the shared function using 'Me.MyValue' - but I avoid it to keep my warnings at 0. Did someone else just decide 'Nah, it makes more sense to do it the other way' or is there some technical reason I don't understand?
EDIT: I was thinking of it wrong, more like a 'sub class' in OOP. Even if something is declared in the base class, you access it through the instance you have. But that relationship is not the same with shared or static.

View 1 RepliesInside my .aspx I have some JSON code that looks like this:
[Code]....
Basically what I'm doing is pulling text from two labels on one page, and sending them to another page by calling the "doIt" function which looks like this:
[Code]....
Just so I'm clear, the "doIt" function and the JSON call are on two separate web forms. My problem is that with the "doIt" function being Shared, I can't access any global variables of the class. And if I remove the Shared, my JSON doesn't execute.
I've been trying implement Constructor method in passing variable between two forms.Just a rough user interface guide - issue Invoice. User would type in all the Customer Name, Document Number. Once he reached Item Details, a Child Form would pop-up for the User to select/search the Invoice's Item; Once selected, the selected item would showed in the primary Form.
What I had tried is, the Constructor method worked perfectly when it is self-contain in a new project, yet to be implement in my application.But when I implemented, there is an error: Reference to a non-shared member requires an object reference.

Will the list in this shared method keep its state throughout the life of the method? Or will a new list be created every time this method is called?

I have a created a class, which contains a sub routine.This sub routine, should ideally be accessable by objects which are not members of the class, so I would like to make the sub, a 'shared sub' (call it Sub1).
Question: I am using many threads and there will be possibly 100s of 1000s of threads all wanting to use Sub1 (which is at present, is not shared).At present Sub1 , is not a shared sub, so every time a thread wishes to use Sub1 , I am creating a (dummy) instance of the class and then applying Sub1, to that instance.
My program works flawlessly using the above technique.Question: If I were to turn Sub1 (which is not currently shared) into a shared sub, and directly had various threads calling Sub1, would there be any issues with locking, ie. would it possible for 2 threads to enter that thread and start overwriting variables, which another thread has written to?
NOTE: there are no shared variables/properties in Sub1 and all variables used in Sub1 are declared within the sub itself.

I am developing an access database that will be shared with multiple users.I don't want the users to access the database directly so I will have them enter new data on a data access page. The data access page is stored on a Microsoft Share Point web page, and the database is stored on a network drive.Here is my problem: When new data is entered on the web page I need it to trigger a WillChangeRecordset event; however, I have not been successful because the web page does not declare a new instance of a recordset object.At a minimum I need the new data to be processed before the web page appends the new data to the table.
