In .NET you can mark certain methods as obsolete so that developers are alerted when they attempt to use the deprecated method.
<Obsolete("Do not call this method.")> Private Sub FormerMethod()
The thing is you can only do this within classes you control. What do you do when you want your developers to avoid using certain methods on classes provided natively in .NET or by a vendor?
For example, what if you want your developer to prefer some custom extension method on DataTable rather than Select. I'd hate to have to define a custom version of the DataTable class if only to deprecate Select. That would leave us having to police whether or not the custom table was being used.

Is there an ability in VB.NET to deprecate code?I know that in C# there are 'attributes', and tags in java; is there anything similar in VB.NET, other than leaving a 'todo:...?

I have created a few WebRequest extension methods that support cancelling. Is it possible to mark related .net framework methods as Obsolete. That will allow other developers to get warning and encourage them to use a new extension methods.

So I am currently attempting to wrap my head around create multi-threaded programs and I am currently running into an issue when using a Shared variable across multiple threads.The program is structured as follows: Public Shared IsActive as Boolean
Main Thread = GUISets the Value of IsActive through a Button ControlTwo Worker ThreadsBoth threads are while loops that read the IsActive Boolean Ex:While IsActive = True Do Work End WhileHowever when I change the value of IsActive from the Main Thread it causes the worker threads to stop (ThreadState = 16).
I have been reading that I have to synchronize/lock shared resources and have tried SyncLock and Monitor methods without success (it is entirely possible I am not using the above correctly, so If someone could provide proper examples for the above situation using the mentioned methods please share them).

I've been trying to get this part of my code to work but it hasn't done anything. I'm trying to create a function that sends an email everyday at a specific time. I thought threading.timer would work but i haven't figured it out yet. I don't get errors when its executed but it also does nothing. If someone could tell me whats going on with this piece of code,

I have a relatively simple question regarding the best way to call the DataGridView.Rows.Add function when it is inherited into the current control. Which is the best way to make the call to the inherited control? Call it directly in the invoke or call it using recursive-like function? They both seem to produce the same result, a row gets added and the quantity is returned, but which is the most efficient?The delegate: Private Delegate Function ReturnDelegate() As Object
The two ways are:
A)
Private Overloads Function AddRow() As Integer
If InvokeRequired Then
Return CInt(Invoke(New ReturnDelegate(AddressOf AddRow)))

VB.NET 2010, .NET 4. I am working on an application for controlling an industrial machine composed of many devices attached to the computer. Most if it is reasonable straight forward, but I'm having trouble thinking about the RS-232 devices. One of the RS-232 devices is a fancy power supply with many functions. The ones that are relevant right now are voltage read, voltage write, current read, and current write. The design pattern I'm trying to implement is one in which each attached device is represented by an object that has methods for reading/writing etc and properties for things like COM port etc.
For this power supply, clearly the Port reference should be shared among the instances, so I have a base class (say, PowerSupply) with a Protected Shared Property Port As IO.Ports.SerialPort. Then I have a couple classes that inherit from this class, PowerSupplyVoltage and PowerSupplyCurrent that each define read/write methods and properties for holding the last read/written values. My issue is in parsing the response from the power supply using the Port.DataRecieved event on the shared SerialPort object. The protocol the power supply uses specifies what data it's sending in each response packet.
So, basically, it might say something equivalent to "The voltage is 100V" or "The current is 1A" or "The voltage has been set to 150V" etc. I'm trying to parse this in a shared function. Only during the parsing process would I determine which instance's read/written value to update. I can't access the read/written value properties of the instances from within the shared function. The best I could think of is creating some kind of PowerSupplyCommunicator object that would maintain references to PowerSupplyVoltage and PowerSupplyCurrent instances along with the shared Port and DataRecievedHandler functions.

how I can dynamically load a control inside of a shared/static function?The function itself is inside of a mustinherit/abstract class.(It's an ASP.NET project in VB) I want to do something like this:[code]I'm getting "Cannot refer to an instance member of a class from within a shared method or shared member initializer without an explicit instance of the class.",but I don't understand this error.I understand what it means, I just don't understand why calling LoadControl isn't seen by the compiler as being an explicit instance of the class. What's not explicit about using LoadControl to create a new control from a file? I tried creating a new user control and initializing it, then setting it to a different control with LoadControl to no avail.I also don't want to do a DirectCast because I'm trying to put this in a shared, mustinheret (abstract) class, which therefore doesn't have an .aspx file to write in a <%@ Reference Control="~/SomeControlPath.ascx" %>, so the class name is unavailable.What I'm trying to do is write a static function that takes some value and returns a control based only on that control's source file location.The end result is a user-modifiable list of controls.They get a column of controls that they freely add, remove, or reorder based on a static list of available child controls that I specify.

I can create classes that use generics, however I was wondering if it is possible to apply this to a shared method rather than rely on the caller casting to the correct type.This is the method:
Public Shared Function DeserializeObject(ByVal serializedXml As String, ByVal givenType As System.Type) As Object
Dim serializer As New XmlSerializer(givenType)
Return serializer.Deserialize(New IO.StringReader(serializedXml))
End Function
I'm pretty sure this can't be done, but thought I'd check (if so Extra points will be awarded if someone can technically explain why the compiler can't do this)..

What's the advantage of declaring a function as "Shared"? I've noticed that it doesn't require you to instantiate an object to use the method when it declared as "Shared". Is that the only upside?

I get this error: Cannot refer to an instance member of a class from within a shared method or shared member initializer without an explicit instance of the class.
Partial Class _Default

I know it has something to do with the fact that the first function is shared and the second function should probably be Public as well but I don't fully understand the reason behind it. Probably not relevant but I'm calling the web method from some javascript.

i created a dll file using vb.net then it has a shared function that will execute a stored procedure of mysql but my code is something long and when accessing it, it has a big risk that it can produce an error if there is an incorrect string input, i am asking an advice how i can make it much better or can point me something much better than my code as my reference.here is my codefirst i created a function named mysqlParamDatatype wiith 1 parameter, this function will detect the mysqldatatype of the mysql sproc parameter so it can pass the value with the correct datatype. but it is to long.

Consider I have a shared function:Public Shared Function CalculateAreaFromRadius(ByVal radius As Double) As Double
[Code]...
If I have two or more threads in the same vb .net app and each of them calls the shared function at the same time with different RADIUS, will they each get their own AREA? I want to know for each call to the function if it is using same local variables or each call creates new instances of local variables?Will the answers to above questions be same If I have multiple (2+) single threaded apps and they all call the function at the same time with different RADIUS value?

I had a problem (which is now fixed) but I've no idea why.I have an Ajax AutoCompleteExtender with a WebService method to populate like <WebMethod()> _
Public Shared Function populateACE(prefixText As String) As List(Of String) However this didn't work - I put a breakpoint in, and it didn't even get hit. However... <WebMethod()> _ Public Function populateACE(prefixText As String) As List(Of String) does work (the only difference being not Shared).
Fair enough, but why? If you have an instance of a class then you can access Shared methods of it; if you don't have an instance of a class then you can access Shared methods of it. So what is going on behind the scenes?

I'm trying to get a query string from a shared function in a code-behind model using VB.NET. You have to use HttpContext.Current.Request.QueryString("Query") in order to get it from a shared function, however doing HttpContext.Current.Request.QueryString.Count gives back 0, which obviously isn't right in my case as there's many that exist. Is there some sort of issue with using this static call from a shared function?

The context of this question is that I am trying to debug performance issues (apart from the obvious ones I already know about and can find).I inherited a code base (VB.NET) for an ASP.NET app. This is an app that was developed way back in .NET 1.1 days, and was the first .NET app for a lot of the developers who worked on it.
In this code base is a class called DatabaseUtility that contains several Shared Public methods as well as non-Shared Public Functions and Subs for CRUD operations to the database (SQL Server).
It is common in my "BL" that a method creates an instance of the DatabaseUtility which essentially figures out what the connection string should be and opens a connection, as well as giving the developer a handle to the other methods contained within it.Dim utility as New DatabaseUtility()
Once I have that, I start to create parameters that I am going to pass to one of the methods in DatabaseUtility (like GetDataSet). There is a Shared method in my DatabaseUtility called CreateParameter which does essentially that. It creates a SqlParameter object so I can add it to a Parameters collection.
Now, the code base is littered with a lot of this:
utility.CreateParameter(...)However, because CreateParameter is a Shared method, I am not sure what is going on behind the scenes. I know because it is a Shared member that an instance of the DatabaseUtility is not created when I call it like this:DatabaseUtility.CreateParameter(...)
However, because I am calling it from an instance (utility), does that change the behavior at all?

With the help of NetFileEnum or Openfiles.exe of system32, we can get the username who has opened the shared files. Is there any API function or any exe files in any programming language like c#, vb.net, visual c++ to find out who is the user to create, rename, or delete shared files or folders on the network?
