VS 2005 - Overload An Operator ?
May 25, 2009I recently got a vb book, and the operator overloading sample is quite confusing. understanding why you need to overload an operator, and what's the simplest example?

View 7 RepliesIs there a way to use CodeDom to generate an overloaded operator in Vb.net? I want to generate this:
Public Shared Operator =(ByVal x As MyType, ByVal y As MyType) As Boolean
Return x Is y
End Operator
The closest hack I can think of to do this the following:
Dim eq As New CodeMemberMethod()
eq.Name = "Operator ="
eq.Parameters.Add(New CodeParameterDeclarationExpression(New CodeTypeReference("MyType"), "x"))[code]....
Which generates this, close but obviously wrong:
Public Shared Function Operator =(ByVal x As MyType, ByVal y As MyType) As Boolean
Return (x Is y)
End Function
So I'm writing the equality operator overload (Operator =())for a custom object, and the resulting mess of If conditionals is just an eyesore. But so far, it seems like the only sane way to check the values to as to match the specific behavior of this object.
The rules are:Num1 is required, period, and both the left and right operands and must be equal for True. Else, False.Num2 is optional, but if specified, must be present for both the left and right operands, and must be equal for True. Else, False.Num3 is optional, but can only be specified if Num2 is also present. Else, False.Num3, if specified, must be present for both the left and right operands, and must be equal for True. Else, False.

I also know that I could cache elements of the checks into booleans and then use those to reduce the amount of text. But that seems like a waste of cycles just for code readability. So I wanted to know if the SO community had better thoughts on reorganizing it, just in case I'm being too verbose with my checks.
I think it is possible to overload the operator() aka "function call" as OdbcDataReader uses it. using OdbcDataReader("myField") is the same as using OdbcDataReader.Item("myField"), I want to be able to do that for my own class, is this possible, how? I've been trying with overloaded operators but no success.

i got an error in my code which is [b]Syntax error: Missing operand before '*' [/B]operator. i am using visual studio 2005 and sql 2005 database here i attach the code.In this code i try to use button the search data in database( table name staff) using a column =NAME and text box as user input
private Sub Search_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnsearch.Click
Me.StaffBindingSource.Filter = "NAME = *" & Me.txtsearch.Text & ""

I am tightening up my coding with the Option Strict set to ON. It has now produced alot of errors. An example of this is:
If AllocatedDGV.Rows(i).Cells("RoomNumber").Value = RoomsAvailableDGV.Rows(j).Cells("RoomName").Value Then
It gives me the following error: Option Strict On disallows operands of type Object for operator '='. Use the 'Is' operator to test for object identity.
I need to write an interface to get data to/from our data files.
We have a low level class that holds field values for each record read from the files.
This just holds two values, the value read from the file (DBValue) and the updated value that may need to be written back to the file (CurrentValue).
These values may be any of the standard value types (integer, date etc) or a string.
Either value (DBValue or CurrentValue) may be null if not defined.
I have written the class to manage this data which works fine while option strict is NOT on.
But we have an office policy of having option strict on all the time.
When I put option strict on, my object value comparisons fail with the error: "Option Strict On disallows operands of type Object for operator '='. Use the 'Is' operator to test for object identity."
Question, how should I change the following code to handle option strict on ...
This is all running on Visual Studio 2010

What I am doing is generic and has been done a thousand times, but I can't figure out how other programmers do this.
I am working with the Law of Sines to return an angle of A. There are two combinations, for instance:
Return Angle A given (side b, side a, angle B)
Return Angle A given (side c, side a, angle C)
----Note: All together there would be six, two for each angle)----
I can't overload the functions because the signatures are not unique. The parameters and return type are primitive type Double.
The use of Aliases works for reading the code but does nothing to resolve my issue.
One approach I thought of was to create a structure for each side and angle; however, I don't want to create any more complexity than needed.
Another solution could be using a strategy design pattern?
I've done plenty of Method Overloading, but now I have an instance where I would like to Overload a Property. The IDE in Visual Studio seems to allow it, since I can actually set up the two overloads, but I get an error saying it is not valid because they only differ in type. I think I'm missing something in my syntax?I want to be able to use two (or more) different custom classes as the Type for my property.
Public Overloads Property myFlexibleProperty() As myCustomClass1
Get
Return _myFlexibleProperty1

Modifying a program in VB.NET 2003. Need to open a streamwriter object. Here's the trouble line...

The StreamWriter(strHandle) portion is underlined as an error. The pop up says "Overload resolution failed because no accessible 'New' can be called without a narrowing conversion:"

I want to catch the event of deletion, renaming or copying a file in Windows Explorer. For example, if a folder contains the files "test.a" and "test.b", and that I remove "test.a", then my program will remove the two (same for copy and rename).I know how to add an entry to the context menu of Windows. But the goal isn't to add functionality to Windows. The goal is to redefine an existing function.

View 2 RepliesI am working on this project and I am suppose to overload the method to allow strings instead of integer. Allow the user optionally add a thried string from a third text box. Okey I am trying to under stand this good. This is the code I have:
This is my overload class
Public Class OverloadEx
[CODE]........................
So with my overload class instead of integer I should put string there? If the user clicks the add button it will allow the user to add all 3 text boxes but when the user click the add string it will allow the user to add all three text boxes to string. So do I click the add string button to overload it to that one just like I did with the add?
