String Does Not Satisfy Structure Constraint For Type Parameter
Jul 22, 2011
I've got this Function:
Public Class QueryStringUtil
Public Shared Function GetQueryStringValue(Of T As Structure)(ByVal queryStringVariable As String) As T
Dim queryStringObject As Nullable(Of T) = Nothing
If queryStringVariable <> Nothing Then
If HttpContext.Current.Request.QueryString(queryStringVariable) IsNot Nothing Then
queryStringObject = CTypeDynamic(Of T)(queryStringVariable)
End If
End If
Return queryStringObject
End Function
End Class
When I try to call it like this:
Dim intTest As Integer = QueryStringUtil.GetQueryStringValue(Of Integer)("stuff")
Dim stringTest As String = QueryStringUtil.GetQueryStringValue(Of String)("stuff")
Dim datetimeTest As DateTime = QueryStringUtil.GetQueryStringValue(Of DateTime)("stuff")
stringTest gives me the error:
'String' does not satisfy the 'Structure' constraint for type parameter 'T'.
I want our other developers to not worry about having to convert a class to a structure or some stuff like that when they call this function. I just want them to be able to put a standard type in the (Of T) and have it work. I don't mind writing in extra calculations to achieve that. The other problem is I also need the function to be able to return an actual null value, so I kind of need the queryStringObject as Nullable(Of T). Which means I have to have T as Structure otherwise it tells me that won't work. So looks like if I change what T is I need to run some calculation to delcare the var as nullable or not.
I tried overloading this method so that one returns T and one returns Nullable(Of T) like so:
Public Shared Function GetQueryStringValue(Of T As Class)(ByVal queryStringVariable As String) As T
Public Shared Function GetQueryStringValue(Of T As Structure)(ByVal queryStringVariable As String) As Nullable(Of T)
And naturally it's telling me it can't do that since they just differ by return types. Is there anyway to overload this? I really don't want to have two functions.

I have the following two tables defined...
CREATE TABLE [LogLevel] (
[Id] int primary key
,[Name] nvarchar(50) not null
[code]....
After creating a fresh endity model, I add the two tables above. When I try to build I get the following errors...
Type argument 'Inxsol.CommandPlan.Data.Model.Log.LogLevel' does not satisfy the 'Class' constraint for type parameter 'TEntity'.
Value of type 'System.Data.Objects.DataClasses.EntityReference(Of Inxsol.CommandPlan.Data.Model.LogLevel)' cannot be converted to 'System.Data.Objects.DataClasses.EntityReference(Of Inxsol.CommandPlan.Data.Model.Log.LogLevel)'.

I have a database with a simple flyweight table referenced by another table. Let's call them, respectively, Category and Product.The Product table has several columns, one of which is a foreign key column (complete with constraint) to the CategoryID to a row of the Category table. It's simple, and I have many of them in this particular database.
I am using Linq in Visual Studio 2008 to represent this data in my application. Both tables appear as normal, and neither have anything special in their properties that would indicate the behaviour I'll describe.In the database itself, there are several Product rows which have CategoryID=1. There are two or three that have CategoryID=2. However, when the data is loaded into my application through Linq, iterating through context.Products shows that the first three have CategoryID=1, CategoryID=2 and CategoryID=3, and all the rest of the rows have CategoryID=NULL. This is not how it appears in the database. There are no other anomalies in this database.

I'm trying to serialize a data structure and pass it to another report via parameter, and this line of code:
Dim s As New System.Xml.Serialization.XmlSerializer(GetType(System.Collections.HashTable))
Produces this error:
An error occurred during local report processing. The definition of the report '/myReport' is invalid. There is an error on line 22 of custom code: [BC30002] Type 'System.Xml.Serialization.XmlSerializer' is not defined.
How can I get around this? I have been able to use fully defined .NET classes in other lines of code, including the following:
Dim outStream As New System.IO.StringWriter()
and
Private colorMapping As New System.Collections.Hashtable()

I have an interface (called IPersistentBusinessObject) with a required function that looks like this:
Function GetFields(ByVal fromDatabase As clsODBCDatabase) As enumSuccessFailure
In a class, I try to satify the requirement with the following:
Public Function GetFields(ByVal fromDatabase As clsDatabase) As enumSuccessFailure Implements IPersistentBusinessObject.GetFields
In this example, clsDatabase inherits from clsODBCDatabase. So I'd expect this to work since clsDatabase does everything clsODBCDatabase does and more. However, it does not work. The compiler complains that I haven't properly satisifed the interface requirements for GetFields. Can anyone tell me why this does not work?In slightly different but related example, I have an interface that requires a function called 'AddItem' as in:
Sub AddItem(ByVal objObject As IPersistentBusinessObject)
In my 'building' class, I attempt to satisfy this requirement using:
Public Sub AddItem(ByVal building As clsBuilding) Implements IPersistentBusinessCollection.AddItem
In this example, clsBuilding implements the interface IPersistentBusinessObject. So I'd expect this to work since clsBuilding satisfies the interface contract. However, it does not work. The compiler complains that I haven't properly satisifed the interface requirements for AddItem. why this does not work?

I'm about to start translating my vb.net application, and I don't want to use the default methods provided by Visual Studio to do so. I need my application to be very light, and it nearly doubles it size to use the resources option.Therefore, I'm planning to use some thing like a class, of which I would have one instance per language. Since I don't want to distribute language files as separate files (I'd rather have them hard-coded), I would like to find an easy way to check if every field of the class is initialized. I was thinking of something like an Interface, where I would do something like this:
Public Interface Language
Dim HelloMsg As String
Dim GoodbyeMsg As String
End Interface
[code]....
It's obviously not the right way to do it (although I could use properties instead of vars), but I was wondering whether the was a way to have the compiler check that everything is translated and warn about it if not.

I found out that you cannot set the array size for a structure when you are making it, i.e
[Code]...
I have to fix this by making a variable with type made by Structure bullet and then redimming it, i.e
[Code]...
This means for every variable with the bullet type i create i have to redim. Is there a way i can set the size of .mesh with .capacity for every single variable created with the bullet type automatically?

This is kind of two questions (one more specific than the other).If I have a method like this:[code]Can I qualify Foo against another type (for instance can I require that Foo be a String that also implements IInterface?).I'm imagining something vaguely similar to this:[code]Additionally, is there any way to qualify the Type parameter?For instance, can I require that the Type I take as a parameter is of a particular class tree?I should mention that I am using this in the context of a property of an attribute so the class declaration itself cannot be generic (this is purely focused on qualifying a method parameter rather than typing a class and its methods).
