VS 2005 List (Of T) As Optional Function Argument
Sep 7, 2010I want to specify an List(Of String) as an Optional function argument. But i am unable to initialize it in the function declaration.

View 1 RepliesI have an Excel VBA function that takes a number of optional parameters, including an optional Range:
Function DazBeta(A As Range, Z As Range, _
B As Integer, _
Optional Freq As Integer = 1, _
Optional c As Double = 0, _
Optional r As Range, _
Optional Pct As Boolean = True, _
Optional Label As Integer = 1)
I am translating to VB.NET, and it's the optional Range that is giving me grief because VB.NET does allow optional Ranges. Or rather, optional parameters must provide a default value. What is the recommended way to change the VB.NET function signature so that the code is callable from an Excel cell as a UDF? (The VB.NET implements a UDF, the assembly is registered as a COM server, and the Excel spreadsheet is told of this server and type library, allowing the VB.NET code to be called from an Excel spreadsheet cell.) I have other compilation problems, so I have not been able to explore this. I am thinking that accepting an optional Object (default value Nothing) might work and then I could cast the Object to a Range. Alternatively, if there were a default value that could be specified with an optional Range, that would work, too.
I am getting this error when debugging a VB application. The method that is being called when I get this does not have any arguments. Definitions in code are as follows with names changed to protect the guilty

The question is, if the method is not defined to accept argments, then why am I having a debug assertion while debugging that says that the arguments are not optional?
I have an Image.OCX which is build on 2008. This is used by VB Application.Many OCX methods are not used in Application. I want to delete unused method from OCX.Step for method deletion.
Delete exists Method from .ODL File i.e //[id(181), helpcontext(11)] long CreateImage(ID id);.
Delete
CreateImage same function . Delete //DISP_FUNCTION(CImageCtrl, "CreateImage", CreateImage, VT_I4) from Ctrl.cpp.
Delete interface ID from AFX_DISP_ID.

Following Error Message display "Run Tim error '449':Argument not optional."
let me know is that possible to delete exist method from OCX and How?
I have a function that has an optional dictionary argument. Since it's optional, it needs a default value, and I'd like to set it to an empty dictionary instead of Nothing. How do I go about that?

I can't figure out the syntax for having an optional byte array in a .net sub Public SubMy Function(ByValFilename as String,OptionalFileData as Byte())The optional keyword requires me to set a default value - which is understandable, but I cannot figure out the syntax to do that here.

I am interacting with VB code on a different tier, using a client-side c# program. The VB function signature looks like this:

Is it possible to have an optional parameter of the type list?Ex.
Private Function TestFunction(Optional ByRef MyList As List(Of Double))
The real problem is giving the list a default value. When dimming a new list, you can use the code below to give it a starting value:
Dim MyList As New List(Of Double)(New Double() {1, 2, 3, 4, 5})
But even after trying many variations of the above code, I cannot get it to work as an optional parameter.
I have a search function de build.We are using pure ASP.NET w VB.NET We have multiple DropDownLists and we're building a search query with whatever was selected in those DDLs. My question is, how can I handle the blank values (unselected dropdownlist values) with the SQL Query ? I'm using AND operators in the query so if anything is blank it'll fail the search. If the dropdownlist has no selected value, i don't want the value to be part of the search. It would be easy to code with just 2-3 parameters, but we're looking thru at least 10 items and doing a SWITCH CASE or multiple IFs would soon become mayhem.

I am using visual basic and trying to create function. I am getting this error:

This is how I call the function.

How can I create a function that returns an object of a certain type, which the user of the function specify in the argument (using vb.net 2010) ?
[Code]...
The code above doesn't work, but maybe it can explain what I want to achieve. Using this feature, I want to hydrate my data transfer objects from datatable. Client will just call this function, specifying which DTO the client wants, and this function will just create that DTO and populating the properties with reflection GetType.GetProperties().
I need to access a DLL function which has a void pointer argument (probably written in C/C++). In VB6 it could be accessed by declaring the argument as 'Any'. VB2008/VB2010 does not know this variable type 'Any'.
I tried instead: Object, IntPtr, UIntPtr, Int32(), Long e.t.c. but there always occurs a compile error or a runtime error.I did a lot of Internet investigation but could not find any answer.
Is there a solution to this?
I have several parameters consisting of separate System.Byte() arrays. What I need is the syntax for a function declaration where the parameter is an array of arrays - I do not want to delve into System.Collections, and it's my preference not to CType each array into an Object and then back into a Byte().
Problem I'm having here is that:
Public Function MyFunc(arrayparam() As System.Byte) As System.Byte()
accepts a single-dimensional Array of individual Bytes.
Then Public Function MyFunc(arrayparam() As System.Byte()) As System.Byte()
How can i pass the button click as an argument in a function.

VB.NET is not letting me dance with both feet, or piss with both hands. I've got one foot and one arm tied behind my back at every turn. I want to use this statement in a function:
Return CType(Formatter.Deserialize(FS), DS)
Seems doable, right?
Function ReadFileStream(ByRef FS As FileStream, ByRef DS As Object)
Dim Formatter As New BinaryFormatter
FS.Position = 0
Return CType(Formatter.Deserialize(FS), DS)
End Function
Right? I mean, CType only accepts a class name as the second argument. I can't give it an instance of a class, or it croaks. Yet if I try to pass the class name as the argument to that function:
DataInfo = ReadFileStream(FileStream1, DataStruct)
VB.NET croaks on this, too, complaining that "'DataStruct' is a type and cannot be used as an expression.". It's used as an expression by CType just fine outside of the function. Does the VB.NET legislature provide a clause that allows for a 'Type' to be passed as an argument in a function? Writing all the supporting code ten million times to deserialize a file using CType ten million times in a large application will get very complicated and tricky very quickly. It should be handled by a routine so that any cases and adjustments that come up can be dealt with in one spot.
i have these 3 sets of code that are giving me INT() errors. Error: Expression is not an array or a method, and cannot have an argument list.

I am trying to pass a list in string.format as the parameters to the SQL statement, but I get the following error: Index (zero based) must be greater than or equal to zero and less than the size of the argument list.

I am trying to have an optional Date value in one of my sub but since you cant set Date to nothing, this doesn't work. And i cant set it to the Date.minvalue inline.
Private Sub abc (ByVal A As String, Optional ByVal B As Date = Nothing)
End Sub
So, i went and set it to some date in the past.
Private Sub abc (ByVal A As String, Optional ByVal B As Date = #1/1/2001#)
End Sub
what would be the proper way to handle the default value for an optional Date?
