I created a website that contains a Webservice that transfers data to a windows application Using a collection, however, I get this Error that says that anything that inherits the ICOllection, it must implement Add(System.Object)

What's really the point in using the former?It's hard to use linq if I used the former. I have to convert that to an array first which is difficult because there is no (asarray) function.I think I would change all of my code that's using System.
Collections.Specialized.StringCollection to System.Collections.Generic.List(Of String)
I have to send a request to Webservice and I have a working PHP solution, that I have to translate in VB.net
Here's the code working in PHP
//fill in the details of the contacts.userId is obtained from loginResult.
$contactData = array('lastname'=>'Valiant', 'assigned_user_id'=>$userId);
//encode the object in JSON format to communicate with the server.

I would like to create a customer class and be able to add collections to it. I know I have to use List<T>. Look at the scenario below. I have a customer class, order class and address class. I would like to instantiate the customer class and add orders and addresses to it. E.g.
Dim oCustomer As New Customer("Acme Inc.")
oCustomer.Orders.Add(New Order(1))
oCustomer.Orders.Add(New Order(2))
oCustomer.Addresses.Add(New Address("Street 1"))
oCustomer.Addresses.Add(New Address("Street 2"))

Say I have a interface called IProperties and I have a collection called colMyProperties that is a collection of IProperties. Then I have an object called clsProperty that implements the IProperty interface. Now, in my code where I add objects to the colMyProperties collection I add a bunch of clsProperty objects. so far so good.
Now when I try to access an object in the collection I can only access properties and methods of the IProperties interface, not the clsProperty object. What am I doing wrong? Do I need to cast the object?
Pages have Roles. Users have Roles. A user may only view a page if he and it share one or more roles.
This works:
Dim Allow As Boolean = False
CurrentPage.Roles.Load()
For Each r As Role In CurrentPage.Roles
r.Users.Load()
[Code]...
How can I make it compare only the Role Id values to determine equality?
I have a form with a tabControl on it. This tabControl has 10 tabs and each tab has multiple textboxes. I am trying to iterate through these textboxes, but cannot find which collection these textboxes belong to within the project.
View 2 RepliesI have a VB6 project with about 100 custom collection classes which I want to convert to VB.Net. A typical example would be something like.
Class CAccounts
Private m_Accounts As New Collection
Public Sub Add(newItem As CAccount)
m_Accounts.Add newItem, newItem.IdKey
[code].....
All of the collection classes in the project use this standard approach. However, not all the properties/methods of the collection classes are actually used. Most of the collection are used in "for each" loops. Keyed access using the string key is quite common. Keyed access by index is much less common.
Ideally I'd like to take a standard approach to converting these classes. I don't really want to have to review each collection and it's usage to consider whether I need a List, Dictionary, etc. Some of these collection contain 100,000 objects, and some will only contain 10. However, on the other hand I don't want to cause performance problems by using a more complex structure where a simpler option would do.
Sticking with the old style Collection. So, it would be relatively easy to convert to VB.Net But, I'd rather move to the more modern structures.Have CAccounts Inherit KeyedCollection(Of String, CAccount). Fortunately most of the classes held in the collections do have the key as part of the class (eg CAccount.IdKey above). This seems to work well. However, relatively few classes will access the colelction by numeric index. So, perhaps this is overkill if I only want keyed access by the string key?Have CAccounts Inherit Dictionary(Of String, CAccount) for the classes where I don't need access by numeric index. The problem I have with this is that all the existing "for each" loops are like "for each account in accounts". I don't want to have to change all these occurences to something like "for each account in accounts.Values". Although perhaps I can get round this by changing the default property?Have CAccounts Inherit MyCollection(Of String, CAccount), where MyCollection is my own bespoke collection. This seems a bit too much hard work.
Is there a way to create a collection of collections? e.g. I created a collection ListOf(Lines) After I add all my lines to it, I want to store this colleciton in another listOf(Collections). The reason I want to do this is because i want to create several separate collections of lines and I'll need to loop through them all to look for a certain line and I thought this would be a good approach if it's possible.

Is there a code to make the contents of a collection stay the way that they (everything is still stored) are instead of being erased when I close my program?

I'm not sure how to do this but I want to store data in several collections. I want the data to be stored / accessed as follows.

I'm trying to learn how to work with Collections list. In the past, if I wanted to create a list I would use an array and then save it to a text file after I was done manipulating the data via CSV.how to save things of different types to a list such as:

I know how to do this in an array but all the synapses aren't firing with the "new to me" collections list as collections lists are hard typed....
I'm implementing a customized Graph algorithm in vb.net, and I'm having the following problem:
Supose the code:
dim col as new collection
dim myC as new system.collections.genericList(of myClass)
dim obj1 as new myClass
dim obj2 as new myClass
[code].....
'In the next statement, the myC2 inside col collection will be decreased to contain 'only obj1, like myC. I supose this is for myC and myC2 contains only a pointer to 'objects obj1 and obj2 as well col contains pointers to myC and myC2 myC.remove(obj2)'The problem is that I have to only copy myC to myC2, like a ByVal argument in a function,'instead a ByRef argument, in order to mantain a copy of objects in myC2 while these 'objects should be removed from myC. How should I do it?
I'm looking at some vb.net code I just inherited, and cannot fathom why the original developer would do this.
Basically, each "Domain" class is a collection of properties. And each one implements IDisposable.Dispose, and overrides Finalize(). There is no base class, so each just extents Object.
Dispose sets each private var to Nothing, or calls _private.Dispose when the property is another domain object. There's a private var that tracks the disposed state, and the final thing in Dispose is GC.suppressFinalize(Me)
Finalize just calls Me.Dispose and MyBase.Finalize.
There are no un-managed resources, no db connections, nothing that would seem to need this.
I have an class named Foo. This class contains a collection of child objects of type FooChildBase, but I also have a further class of type FooChildTwo which inherits from FooChildBase.
Class Foo
Public Children As IList(Of FooChildBase)
End Class
Class FooChildBase
[code]....
What I would like to do is have my FooSpecial Class treat it's Children collection as if they were FooChildSpecial objects, but still be able to add FooChildTwo objects to it. Is this possible and if so how can it be done?
EDIT:I need to FooChildSpecial class to wrap any of the objects in the Children collection with the extra values, whether they are FooChildBase or FooChildTwo?
Is there an exhaustive list of all of the "base" (not used in an object-oriented sense but more in a common sense) generic types in the 4.0 .NET Framework? I have found this list that I often send newer/mid-level devs to so they can understand how non-generic types map to generic types, but this is by no means exhaustive. I'm looking for something that also includes things such as KeyValuePair<>, Tuple<>, and other basic generics that may not be very-well known. Interfaces such as IObservable<> would be nice but not necessarily required.

I have a custom collection class that I would like to pre-populate with data from the database. Basically it would search for "submembers" that are related to the "member" data record using the "member"'s primary key id.
I figured the best way to do this would be in the constructor of the class, but I am not so sure now. The collection class does not have any properties (the member class does).[code]...
