I am writing a code for a webapplication in vb.net. I am using a shared variable in the vb code.
Consider the static variable value is 3 for a user who hits the web application. Again when another user hits the same web application, whether the static variable will be 3 again or whether he will have a separate value for static variable for his session?
I have the following code:
Public Class TestClass
Public Sub Main()
If theGlobal IsNot Nothing Then Throw New Exception("What gives!")
End Sub
Private Shared theGlobal As Object = Nothing
[Code] .....
Why is theGlobal object NOT Nothing?
How can i declare a static variable as global in vb.net?(Global static variable)
View 5 RepliesWe all know what a Static variable means! Recently I came across a problem that I have no idea about! I even don't know whether I'm wrong somewhere or that is a VS fault. Whatever it is, I can't figure out the cause. Anyway, I simply opened a VB 2008 project and added 2 Windows forms to it: Form1 and Form2. Then I set Form1 as a MdiContainer by setting its IsMdiContainer property to True. Then I added a CommandButton to Form1 and put this following code into that:

I need a static variable to get a ListItemCollection from a List control (I can do this, but if I don't set it as Shared It's not preserving the values as it should). The thing is that this class is a SharePoint webpart, so I most probably will be using the webpart more than once, and I need this variable to be unique to each webpart, which shared doesn't accomplish.I tried everything you can imagine. I placed a Static variable within a Sub (shared and not shared), I tried it with Properties (also Shared and not shared)...

View 5 Replieshow to word this, as it is it's complex to understand the concept of the idea. Basically, I'm trying to use an interpreter pattern, based off of the code I used in php. In php the code is:
abstract class Expression {
private static $keycount=0;
private $key;
[code]......
The problem I'm having is that the static variable is blank for each child using it. How can I have it where one child increases the keycount,and ALL of the children have the new keycount variable?
Here'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.
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?

Why are static variables set equal to 0 in the declaration when 0 would be the default value of the numeric variable anyway when it's first declared? Not including the "=0" in the static declaration seems to work with no problem.

View 1 RepliesI am doing work for a client who has lost the source code for one of their VB.Net WinForms applications. The assembly they have is not obfuscated at all. I am trying to recover as much of the source as I can as C# source and have tried several tools for decompiling assemblies, including Reflector, ILSpy and JustDecompile (all the latest versions), but they all produce code with a huge number of errors in them. Because of the large number of errors in the generated code, I am going to ask about the specific errors (in different questions), get more directed answers and in this way try shed some light on why all the tools are having difficulty decompiling this assembly. This question pertains to the fact that the code generated by all these tools always have a large number of invalid member variables (fields) such as the following:
private short $STATIC$Report_Print$20211C1280B1$nHeight;
private ArrayList $STATIC$Report_Print$20211C1280B1$oColumnLefts;
private StaticLocalInitFlag $STATIC$Report_Print$20211C1280B1$oColumnLefts$Init;
why the generated code has these invalid member variables?

I am rewriting a C# class in VB. The C# class has a static constructor in it:
static Class()

}
which, through the Call Stack, I found is called by the main window's InitializeComponent() method.Everywhere I've looked has told me that the corresponding static constructor in VB is just:Shared Sub New()
but this method is never invoked. Am I creating my VB static constructor right? Is it likely something else that has nothing to do with my static constructor?

This will probably be a basic questions for the LINQ & architecture experts however I am failing to understand a problem i've encounted when trying to update a 'Static ObservableCollection.
Me.Grid1.ItemsSource = ContactList Me.Grid2.ItemsSource = From s In ContactList Where s.ContactTypes.Any(Function(t) t.ContactTypeName = "Christmas List")
If I add a new Contact with the ContactType "Christmas List" to the ContactList ObservableCollection, Grid1 reflects the additional Contact however Grid2 does not reflect the change unless I rebind.
Anyway to Reflect the change in Grid2 to show the new Contact with the queried ContactType
We have a DateTime Service that pulls the Database date down when we need to use a Date. Now, If I want to run a test using "Todays" Date using FitNesse, What would be the easiest way of creating a way to have (OurService).CurrentDate be static? We have a control that ads Days,Years, or Months to the current date.. and I would like to be able to test this.

In the following example GetList returns an instance of a static (shared) variable. That one needs locking in order to be thread-safe.But what about DoSomething which doesn't use any static variables outside the method? Does it need locking too?I'd like to clarify that in this particular case I expect DoSomething to always print 0-100 in sequence (i.e. no 0123745...) regardless of number of calling threads. Or, in general, that different threads don't affect each other's variables (printing to console is only an example). The language in the following example is VB.NET.[code]

View 1 RepliesI have an excel sheet developed by a vendor that I'm stuck with the current functionality as a short term solution. The users workflow have them pull 4 separate sets of data which they are copying and pasting into a different spreadsheet where they append the data to previous days' pricing for trend analysis. That macro is built looking for the first blank row in column A, simple enough.
However, they then add the current day's date to this other spreadsheet as an additional column to do that trending. I found a nice link to a site that mentioned I could do this logic by adding code by right clicking the sheet name and selecting 'View Code'. I then entered the following logic that states if column A is populated, populate Column T with today's date statically (Today and Now don't work because I need it to stay at that date when it is refreshed). My issue is that this works great if I enter test data into cell A and hit enter. However it is not populating the date if a copy and paste is executed into the column A. Is there something I'm missing or a recommendation to have this work with copy/paste?

Private Shared Regexes() As String = {"test1.Regex", "test2.Regex"}

If it's not obvious code is compiling regexes and storing in a List(Of Regex) so they can run faster. And it's shared so every instance of class can get benefit out of it.
I have a field which is static and readonly. The requirement is that the value should be allocated to the field at the login time and after that it should be readonly. How can i achieve this ?

is there a difference in performance when making properties static/shared that were instance properties before, maybe any locking mechanisms?There is a heavily used object in HttpCache which was accessible through a property in a page-instance(Service.aspx). Now i wonder if it would be better to make it static because the HttpCache is shared across the application anyway.
View 4 RepliesI've got a shared class (static in C#) which mostly carries some settings data that any class in the application can read and sometimes write. Also there are some static properties which holds some internal states.
Now I want to revert this class to initial stage of it. With all default variables etc. Assume that the user want to reset the current state and start over without restarting the application.
In a singleton model I'd simply renew it with something like this :
Public Sub Reset()
_Instance = New MyClass()
End Sub
However this is not possible in a Shared class. Or should I switch back to Singleton?
