View 5 RepliesI recently found this code (provided for third party use on another VB site), however,ll of my attempts to insert it into a class library have failed.I open a new class library and past the code in, and immediately get several errors pertaining to how certain objects can't be found. I find it it is crucial to use this code, unless someone can suggest to me another example of existing code that will do the same thing: make a restricted textbox who imputs can be restricted, that can handle pasting, shortcuts, text property setting, and script-entered text.

I've created a custom class that I've grown rather dependent on in my coding. I've encapsulated it as it's own "Solution" and use a reference to the class module within the solution on most of my new projects, and that all works fine. It seems slightly clunky to me that my encapsulated class module is packaged with solution-related directories and so forth. For me, this seems to make management and maintenance of these little class modules difficult (renaming them for instance). So now, a few questions:
When you recognize you have a useful class embedded within a solution:
1) What's your method for encapsulation? (is there a template you like?)
2) How do you organize/arrange your code libraries?
3) When, if ever, might you consider using that "Code Snippets Manager" thing in the IDE?
I'm struggling a bit trying to understanding how Visual Studio wraps-up everything in what appears to be a "Solution" umbrella. There doesn't seem to be a lot of write-ups on how to go about organizing your code libraries to work well within this Solution/Project Visual Studio framework.

I've been passed a solution that has a vb.Net 2.0 project that references to a .Net 3.5 library. The library compiles with out problem but the vb project does not. It complains of missing objects which are in the library which are correctly added in the imports. Also I see a yellow yield sign next to the reference library also when I add the reference it complains of the framework version difference. Any help is apritiated. Also I'm using VS10. Imported the projects with no errors. A colleague has this working on VS9.
View 1 Replieshow to declare scope for variables outside their class?
Here's what i have in a class known Create_User:
Public Class Create_User

Public usercmd As SqlCommand

How can i increase the scope of these variables to be used in another class? I dont want to keep declaring them again and again.

I want to create a new instance of a class when I click on a button, but I need to interact with members of that class using other controls on the form, so I need the class to have a global scope. I know I could call the new class in formload, but the class creates certain variables that need to be current. If it is done on formload, the variables wouldn't be current, because if the class is created at formload, it would have different info at that time. Surely, there must be a way to create an instance of the myClass from within a sub that is accessible from other subs of the same class.

I am struggling to do what i want with classes at the moment as they are killed off at the end of a method, can somebody let me know how to make the classes live until i tell them to die? so that i can create one and refer to it from another method at another time? For example On form load i create a class Dog.Then later on i want to get info from the Class Dog. But it is no longer instantiated

View 3 RepliesToday I investigated a logical bug in our software and figured out that this is related to the way VB.NET thread variables inside a loop.Let's say I have the following code:
Dim numbers As New List(Of Integer) From {1, 2, 3, 4, 5}
For Each number As Integer In numbers
Dim isEven As Boolean
[code]....
The problem is that isEven is declared but not assigned.In this specific case, it would be correct to write dim isEven as Boolean = false but I haven't done this.In VB.NET, a variable that is declared inside a for loop keeps its value for the next itaration. This is by design: [URL]but this is also dangerous pitfall for programmers.
However, until now, I haven't been aware of this problem/behaviour. Until now.Most of our code base is C# anyway, which doesn't allow the use of an uninitialized variable, so there is no problem. But we have some legacy code that is written in VB.NET that we have to support. So the best thing would be to generate a warning or even an error in this specific case.But even with Option Explicit / Option Strict this does not generate a warning / an error.Is there a way make this a compile time error or maybe a way to check this with FxCop?
Is there a way in VB to make something that will simulate an advanced command prompt inside of a Windows Form? For example, something like a greenscreen app?
View 1 RepliesI have a class library in VB.NET that does a NET-envelope for an USB device driver.There is only one function of that driver that I could not envelope in a traditional class, but I had to put it in a Windows Service as described here:Sharing a class property (field) between applications.The Windows Service works fine, but I have now two projects for my NET-envelope: the one with the class library, the second with the windows service and I do not like the idea to maintain two distinct projects for the same driver.Is it a good practice (or even if possible) to add a windows service class to a normal class library (without creating its own project as described in the vb tutorial)?I know, in any case I should create a separate setup only for the windows service, but in this way I could have together all the classes that envelope my usb device driver in only one project.

I have two projects, namely:

2. Project2 (Class Library)

I have a custom control's library. Now there's a control which looks like a panel, and when it opens up I want to animate its vertical growing like this:
For h As Single = 0 To finalHeight Step 0.5
Me.Height = CInt(h)
' HERE I WANT TO CALL DoEvents'
Next
Me.Height = finalHeight
If I don't call DoEvents in the loop then the animation is not shown, I only get the final height without a visual feedback along the way. I can call DoEvents from inside my main WinForm project, but can't inside a library. How can I do that, without drowning into the deep threads waters?

Create a class named Service. Inside the Service class, declare a class variable named Started. The datatype of this variable is Boolean.Public Class Service Dim started as Boolean End Class Create a class named Server. Inside the Server class, declare a dynamic array that can contain elements of the type Service.(Note: For convenience, both the array and the variable Started can be accessible from a client program that creates an instance of Server and Service respectively)
Create a constructor for the Service class. When the constructor is executed, it will set the value of the class variable Started to True. Create two new classes: WebServer and DatabaseEngine. Both of these classes inherit from the class Service. Inside the Service class, declare a Sub procedure (method) named Terminate. This method should display the following text Service stopping in a message box when executed.This method can be overridden in classes that inherit from Service class.
Inside both the WebServer and DatabaseEngine class, override the method Terminate inherited from their base class Service. Both methods should first call the base class Terminate method. The messages Web server stopping and Database engine stopping should also be displayed in a message box when the Terminate method for the WebServer and DatabaseEngine are called respectively. These messages should only be displayed if the Started variable inherited from their base class is not equal to False.
Inside the Server class, declare a method named Shutdown. This method does not return any value. When executed, it will call the Terminate method for each of the Service instances (if any) in the arrServices
array. You should call the Terminate method within a For Each loop that loops through the elements of the arrServices array.
In the Sub Main method, create an instance of the class Server. Set the size of the arrServices array in
your Server instance to contain 2 elements. Create first a WebServer instance and then a DatabaseEngine
instance into this array. Call the Shutdown method from your Server instance.

What I must do? I need to right click in solution explorer add new item->add->class and copy here this code?
After I write the code I chose from the vb menu: Build->Build Solution_name
Before writing the code I choose File->New->and selected class library then save all to save as a project.
Or class library is only a dll file that runs with a windows forms application. (that is added after i write the code for write library).
How do I access the base class inside a derived class?
